Why did the Japanese invade the Langya Mountain in a big way?

In 1941, the Japanese army carried out a large-scale sweep of the base areas in North China, encircling the troops of the First Division of the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region of the Eighth Route Army and 2,000 local people. After stubborn resistance, the 7th Company diverted the attention of the Japanese army, making the Japanese army think that the 7th Company was the main force of the Eighth Route Army, and the 7th Company finally left the 6th squad to cover, in order to gain time for the main force and the masses to retreat, this squad led the main force of the Japanese army to the main peak of Langya Mountain, Qipantuo, and engaged in a fierce battle with the Japanese army surrounded on all sides. In the end, when only five people were left with all the ammunition and food, the five people collectively committed suicide by jumping off the cliff.

The strength of the Japanese puppet army in the area of Langya Mountain was about 3,500 (the Japanese army was mainly the 110th Division of the North China Front).

In mid-September 1941, more than 8,000 Japanese puppet troops cleared the area of the 1st Army Subdivision of the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region of the Eighth Route Army, which was centered on Guantou of Yi County, Hebei Province. On September 24, more than 3,500 Japanese puppet troops surrounded the Langya Mountain area in the southwest of Yi County. Specifically, there were about 500 Japanese puppet soldiers fighting with the "Five Heroes" on the Wolf Tooth Cave Xiang Mountain.

ps: In the end, the five heroes of Langya Mountain won the record of killing 97 enemies at the cost of 3 people sacrificing and fighting (after jumping off the cliff), and 2 people were injured and survived, which can be described as brilliant results! ~~

Because there are not enough people, or there are few Japanese troops, or our Chinese soldiers are very brave!

"During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the heroic deeds of the five heroes of Langya Mountain in Yi County, Baoding, Hebei Province, have long influenced generations of Chinese, and in people's hearts, the five heroes have become a monument. But few people know the story behind it. This is a story full of legends, which took place in August 1997, and although a full decade has passed, few people know about it for various reasons.

I saw the introduction of the Japanese officers who commanded at that time (paraphrased by the Chinese): they originally had 170 people, and when they arrived at the top of the mountain, only 70 remained! At that time, they already knew that the strong men had run out of bullets, but the stones of the strong men were also very powerful, and the road was narrow and difficult to dodge!

When he found out that the five heroes of Langya Mountain had jumped off the cliff, out of respect for the heroic deeds of his enemies, he ordered the soldiers to stand in a line, shoot into the sky until the bullets ran out, and bow three times!

The Japanese officer was sent back to the country for trial, sentenced to life imprisonment, and exiled to a desert island (changed to get along), with only a bag of grain and his own saber by his side, relying on the will to live He grew grain and fished on the island for several years as a savage, and when his wife came to collect the body after the war, he saw that he was not dead to go home, at this time he changed his name: Mao Tian Xing! The person came to Baoding for 97 years to apologize, and invited 5 old people to apologize in the village where he committed the crime in Beiqi Village, and offered wine to the five heroes of Langya Mountain and the dead people on the spot!

He also gave his saber to the county magistrate of Yi County at that time!

When I was a child, I listened to the old people talking to me about the terrified rear security forces of Japan at that time, and the slogan seemed to be "the first regiment in the world, everyone should pay for me, but I am not allowed to pay it back, and you are not allowed not to pay it back." They ran rampant in the townships, raided houses and houses, and became well-known armed bandits in the Xushui area of Dingxingyi County. Strong, my big forest firewood...

The Japanese were eventually beaten out of China, and two of the Five Heroes survived. Two died of old age.

There was a Taoist priest who witnessed the process of jumping off the cliff, and it took many trees on the cliff to save the two people.
