In 2010, a section of the expressway construction site in Hubei province suddenly fell heavily. The construction team stopped construction, and the next day, the workers found several bare Sensen bones at the construction site. As the heavy rain continued to erode, more and more white bones were on the ground, and the entire construction section was almost completely occupied by this white bone. According to statistics, there are more than 3,000 white bones. Who are the owners of these white bones? Why are they buried in the wilderness? What's the story behind it? In this article, let's explore the story behind the 3,000 remains.
In 2010, Yichang, Hubei Province, was expanding a section of the expressway. In the future, hundreds of millions of vehicles will drive through this section of the highway, contributing to China's economic rise. At the construction site of this section of the highway, workers have to start digging the foundation the next day. However, on the first day of construction, it seemed to be a bit unfavorable. Just as construction was about to begin, a sudden rainstorm fell from the sky, as if to wash everything off the earth. The workers had no choice but to suspend construction and wait for the next day to arrive.
Early the next morning, workers arrived at the construction site early. Suddenly, a worker shouted "ah" and frightened the workers next to him. The second worker came over to take a look and let out an even louder scream. The workers in the distance heard the shouting and quickly came over. The crowd gathered together, looking at the scene on the ground, and their backs were chilling. On the ground, there was a bare white bone.
These white bones don't look like the bones of any animal, but like the bones of an individual. Some old workers are not surprised, this construction team, perennial construction, dig out the bones is not strange. It may be that a nearby grave or a wild tomb or the like has been dug. The construction team gathered its spirits and prepared to start working.
However, as the rain continued to wash away, the mud and sand on the ground spread out in all directions, and more and more white bones appeared. The white bones made the construction team feel a tingling in the scalp. How many white bones are there in the ground? What the hell is this place? How can there be so many white bones? Who are they? With the increase of white bones, the construction team felt that the work was difficult to carry out, the key is that the scene of the sensen white bones is really crazy, how can this work be done?
The workers realized that the situation was somewhat peculiar and immediately reported the situation to their superiors. Subsequently, the superior reported the case to the local police. After receiving the news, the police immediately rushed to the first scene for investigation. After examination by police investigators, it was confirmed that the bones had been dead for many years. But investigators are not experts in this area after all. They immediately contacted local archaeologists. Archaeologists hurried to the scene, opened a large pile of tools, and began to study the white bones on the ground.
After the heavy rain, all the corpses underground were exposed, and after the staff counted, there were more than 3,000 corpses here. The experts quickly reported the results of preliminary research, and they concluded that the burial time of the corpses was definitely not a peacetime era, and it is possible that modern wars occurred. After the site was blocked, the experts returned to the documentation room to check the relevant materials. In the end, experts told the truth of the incident, and it turned out that the more than 3,000 corpses were all Chinese martyrs.
So why did they sacrifice, how did they bury themselves in such a wilderness? Turning over China's modern history is a shocking history of blood and tears, as well as a history of humiliation.
If we want revolution, we must carry out a bloody revolution, and only by shedding blood and sacrificing can we save the well-being and happiness of hundreds of millions of people in China. The Chinese workers and peasants dared to stand up, take up their hoes and scythes, and launch a revolt against the enemy.
In 1931, the September 18 Incident broke out. The Kwantung Army broke through the northeast gate and launched an offensive into the hinterland of China without fear. In 1937, the Lugou Bridge Incident accelerated the pace of Japanese aggression. The Japanese army's war against China was an attempt to occupy all of China. The Ambitions of the Japanese were extremely ambitious, and at the end of July 1937, they captured Peiping and Tianjin, and then said: Three months to destroy China.
Er and other small countries also want to occupy China in March, which is simply rampant. Chinese people are inspired to rise up and resist, and a desperate struggle is about to begin.
If a boy dies in the wilderness, and buries his ears with a body wrapped in a horse, how can he lie on the bed and be evil at the hands of a child and a woman! In the early days of the all-out war against Japan, the Eighth Route Army of the Communist Party of China was extremely poorly equipped. In contrast, the Kuomintang army was well-equipped and well-equipped with reserve resources. However, in the face of the ferocious attack of the Japanese army, the Kuomintang army could only retreat. Although the Eighth Route Army did not have rockets and artillery and aircraft, when facing the Japanese army, it was not afraid and faced difficulties. This is a real Chinese good boy!
The Chinese Eighth Route Army relied on extremely rudimentary weapons to maneuver with the enemy. The Eighth Route Army's combat environment was poor and remote, and there was not enough food and ammunition to replenish. In such a harsh environment, it is difficult to imagine how Chinese fighters will fight. The Japanese army relied on strong output to surround the Eighth Route Army. Our army stubbornly established an anti-Japanese base area in the midst of the Japanese army's encirclement.
In February 1940, in the territory of Maojiang County, the First Route Army of the Northeast Anti-Japanese League fell into the enemy's "crusade" team. Our army has not had reserve resources for a long time, and at this moment, the soldiers are in a cold environment of minus 40 degrees, and normal people in such an environment are a problem to survive. The soldiers of the First Route Army, however, still fought valiantly against an enemy force several times larger than themselves. The war was brutal, and after a fierce and bloody battle, the soldiers of our army were almost completely annihilated.
Cold, food, ammunition, and assistance, Chinese fighters withstood wave after wave of enemy attacks in such a harsh environment. When the enemy was exhausted, our soldiers fought back and caught the enemy off guard. The Japanese army could not figure out why the Chinese soldiers were so tenacious. Without food or drink, how did they rise up in such cold weather? In the battlefield behind enemy lines, China's anti-Japanese base areas continued to develop and expand.
In 1940, the Japanese army launched an attack on Yichang, Hubei. Stationed in Huanghua Township, Yichang, was the Reserve Fourth Division of the Nationalist 75th Army. The commander of the Fourth Division was Fu Zhengmo. From 1938 onwards, Fu Zhengmo led his troops to fight the Japanese frontally, from Henan to Hubei. The 4th Division of the Nationalist 75th Army participated in the Defense of Wuhan, the Battle of Xinkou, the Battle of Suizao, and the battles of Xiangfan and Shayi. Later, Fu Zhengmo led his troops to the village south of Huanghua Township in Yichang City, where some of the disabled soldiers were in urgent need of treatment, so Fu Zhengmo decided to stay here for a period of time.
The Fourth Division built a field hospital in Huanghua Township. The appearance of this field hospital is really a timely rain for the wounded soldiers of the National Army. Even the wounded of other nearby Nationalist forces were transported here for treatment. Not long after Fu Zhengmo's army was stationed, the sentry suddenly came to report: The Japanese army has attacked!
Fu Zhengmo immediately led the warriors to fight bravely. However, with modern equipment, the Japanese army marched rapidly on the battlefield and soon firmly encircled Fu Zhengmo's army. The Japanese army planned to carry out the clearance and suppression activities, first cutting off the source of materials in the rear of the Nationalist army, and then carrying out a complete military blockade.
As the enemy cut off supplies from the rear of the Nationalist army, medical supplies were extremely scarce. Nowadays, the seasons change, the wounded have repeated attacks, and the wounds are often infected. Many warriors do not receive follow-up treatment and die without treatment. In the beginning, the dead warriors could be buried in one tomb per person. Later, more and more warriors were sacrificed, and the tombs were not enough. Fu Zhengmo had to order someone to dig a large pit and bury the dead soldiers in the big pit.
More than 3,000 bodies were buried before and after. More than half a century later, these corpses have been seriously decomposed, and all the military uniforms and so on have decayed, leaving only a white bone of Sensen. It wasn't until 2010, when a highway was built here in Yichang, that the buried event was reopened, but it was no longer possible to discern who the owners of the bones were.
After the White Bone Incident, the researchers visited surrounding villages. According to the local old people, in this land, there were some monuments in the early days. But over time, slowly, these monuments have disappeared, and no one remembers that the remains of warriors were buried here.
In the year of the incident, in the face of the Japanese army's encirclement, Fu Zhengmo could only do so that the sacrificed soldiers slept here. However, perhaps the Fourth Division was blessed with the sacrifice of soldiers, and Fu Zhengmo then led his troops to break out of the siege and break through the Japanese defenses. In the winter of 1941, Fu Zhengmo served as the deputy commander of the 14th Army and followed the army from southern Yunnan to Kunming.
In August 1945, Japan surrendered unconditionally, and the 14-year arduous war of resistance finally came to the end of victory. The War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression was the war in which the Chinese people resisted foreign aggression, the longest time, the largest scale, and the most sacrifices. In this war alone, Chinese military and civilian casualties exceeded 35 million. At that time, China's direct economic losses were nearly $100 billion.
The blood and soul of the warriors have forged a barrier for the military and the people to defend the enemy. The deeds of the Chinese people in their heroic resistance have deeply encouraged the people of the world and thoroughly washed away the shame of repeated aggression against the Chinese people in modern times. China's victory in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression also had a tremendous impact on safeguarding world peace.
After the war, the Kuomintang represented the Chinese side and participated in the ceremony of the Japanese army's surrender in the Chinese theater. On the eve of the Nationalist government's return to Nanjing, Fu Zhengmo and his classmates feasted with their classmates. Fu Zhengmo was a student who entered the first phase of the Whampoa Military Academy in 1924, and his classmates in the first phase of that year also became elite leaders in various places.
Attending Fu Zhengmo's banquet were He Zhihan, director of the Labor Administration Bureau, Zhang Zhen, deputy commander of the Gendarmerie, and more than 30 others. At the banquet, they raised a toast together and held a moment of silence to pay tribute to all the soldiers who died in the War of Resistance Against Japan. For Fu Zhengmo, Huang Huaxiang was a permanent pain in his heart, and it was the heroic sacrifice of more than 3,000 soldiers and hundreds of thousands of other soldiers who won the victory of the War of Resistance today. At the banquet, they reminisced about the past of the bloody battlefield and paid tribute to the heroes.
At the end of December 2014, the main project of the Anti-Japanese Soldiers Cemetery in the south of Yiling District was basically completed, and subsequently, yichang in Hubei Province completed the transfer of remains. More than 3,000 remains have been effectively placed, and the warriors who buried the wilderness finally have a home. When the identity of these remains was confirmed, countless people from all over the country spontaneously came to worship.
The place where the remains of the warriors were excavated was later built into the Yiba Expressway. Countless vehicles flow endlessly, providing impetus for China's economic construction. Such peace and prosperity were originally bought with their lives by those martyrs buried on the ground. While enjoying peace, we should also not forget to remember history and remember the martyrs. To the martyrs who died in the war, high respect!
