Major events

The battle of Qiu Cheng

On January 9, 1937, Liu Ruming, 179th division of the 29th army of the National Revolutionary Army, fought with a division of the Japanese invaders for three days in Heguo Town, Nanhe County, and dealt a heavy blow to the Japanese army. Due to the lack of reinforcements and supplies of food and ammunition, they were forced to retreat from Nanhe county to the southeast on the 12th night, and retreated to Qiucheng (today's Qiucheng town) along Jize, Pingxiang and Guangzong counties. At this time, the Japanese army rushed to Qiucheng from Cixian, Daming, Feixiang and Guangping, and tried to attack the 29th army and destroy it. In order to cover the retreat of the army to the southwest of Shandong Province, the 29th Army decided to deploy a left behind death camp in Qiucheng. The commander of the battalion, Zhu Wenshan, led his officers and soldiers to build fortifications outside the city to stop the Japanese army.

At 3:00 p.m. on November 14, Japanese troops gathered in Wangbao village, Quzhou County, five miles south of Qiucheng. Before firing the artillery, they asked the people in Wangbao village, "how big is Qiucheng?" The masses answered, "Bali.". The Japanese believed that the diameter of the city was eight Li, but actually its perimeter was eight Li, so they fired in according to the data of eight Li in diameter. Most of them fell in the fields in the north of the city, not in the city. The 29th army stayed at the decisive camp, held its position and did not fire a single shot. The Japanese thought that the city had been destroyed. When they came to the foot of the city, they found that the shelling had not hit the target. They fired empty guns in vain and became angry. So they ordered to attack the city. As a result, even the defense line outside the city had not broken through, they were beaten back by the left behind decisive battalion. At night, the Japanese troops organized another sneak attack, which failed several times in a row, and each time caused a lot of casualties. On the morning of November 15, the Japanese troops assembled and formed a strong siege echelon. Under the cover of artillery fire, they marched in formation like crazy beasts and attacked the city in the south of the city. The 29th army's left behind death camp was forced to withdraw from the outside of the city to the city wall, and fought back bravely by using the shelter on the city wall. When the army entered the most effective killing distance, the left behind death camp fought back fiercely, killing Japanese soldiers everywhere. The people of Qiucheng came forward one after another to help the troops carry ammunition and load bullets and shells into machine guns and cannons with great enthusiasm. In order to kill the Japanese army more effectively, the machine gun company carried 40 light and heavy machine guns, and then moved them to a cemetery in the southwest of the city (there are many cypress trees to hide). When the Japanese army launched another attack, they attacked them from the side, and pushed the Japanese army in front of them back to Wangbao village. One of the eight leaders of the Japanese invaders was also killed. At 10 a.m., in order to break through the biggest obstacle to its siege, the city wall, the Japanese army dispatched more than 100 guns and deployed them in the area of laoshahe, northeast of dongwangbao village, encircling Qiu county for half a circle. Most of the 29th army's death camp retreated, leaving only one company in the city. At 12 o'clock, the Japanese concentrated artillery fire on Qiucheng, first of all, the Kuixing tower in the southeast corner of the city collapsed. The city guards lost the barrier. A platoon leader who was there bravely fought with a machine gun, and the ghost bodies were all over the place. After the platoon leader was injured, the soldiers advised him to get off the line of fire. He resolutely refused and vowed to live with Qiu Cheng until he died. Then the Japanese took the opportunity to climb up from the gap of the collapsed city wall. A company commander of the 29th army fought bravely with a machine gun until the last breath of his life. Two other soldiers were killed. In the afternoon, the 29th army's company was forced to withdraw from the city wall because it was outnumbered. At 13 o'clock, it withdrew from the Xuandi temple in the northeast corner of the city.

In the 29th army, the company will stay and die
