At that time, the commander of the 3rd Army of the Imperial Japanese Army and the commander of the North China Front, Tada Jun, issued a plan of revenge as a cage.

The policy of cages and the intensive division of the anti-Japanese base areas greatly reduced the room for maneuver of the Eighth Route Army. But because the main forces were placed on the side of the Yellow River to confront Wei Lihuang's Central Army, the Eighth Route Army was left cold and fought a hundred-regiment battle behind him. Deeply feeling that his troops were insufficient, he fought a battle of Zhongtiao Mountain after receiving reinforcements from a division, which eliminated the power of the Chinese central army in North China, freed up the Japanese troops of at least three divisions, and provided a great increase in strength, laying the foundation for his successor Okamura Ninji to sweep the anti-Japanese base areas behind enemy lines.

The battle of 100 regiments launched by the Eighth Route Army made the Japanese army suffer a lot, so after this battle, the Japanese army backhanded formulated an operational plan to attack the base area of the Eighth Route Army, vowing to wipe out the strength of the Eighth Route Army in North China. However, in the first half of 1942, this battle plan against the Eighth Route Army underwent a dramatic change, and the Japanese army adjusted its operational deployment when choosing specific targets, and decided to first break the hundreds of thousands of national troops in Jinnan, and then go all out to deal with the Eighth Route Army.

This battle is called by Chiang Kai-shek "the greatest shame of the War of Resistance" of the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain, because the battle of the hundred regiments let Chiang Kai-shek see the strength of the Eighth Route Army, so in North China continued to create friction, before the battle of Zhongtiao Mountain, many times to transfer front-line troops to embarrass the Eighth Route Army, especially the transfer of 2 heavy artillery regiments, which gave the Japanese army an opportunity to take advantage of the decision to first take the hundreds of thousands of national troops stationed in the Zhongtiao Mountain area.

The defeat of the Nationalist army was terrible, more than 40,000 were killed, 35,000 were captured, and a total of 80,000 people were lost, while the Japanese army won a complete victory, with only more than 600 killed and more than 2,200 wounded, adding up to less than 3,000 people. Moreover, this battle happened not long after the incident in southern Anhui, and there were originally some suspicions of "currying favor" with the Japanese army, but the Japanese army did not appreciate it!

Japan's Chinese dispatch forces quickly adjusted their operational arrangements and regrouped their heavy forces to attack the base areas behind enemy lines in North China. In March and July 1941, the Japanese army successively carried out the first and second public security strengthening campaigns, stepped up internal rectification, developed puppet troops, added strongholds, blocked traffic, encroached on both sides of Pinghan Road and Baijin Road, and built a second blockade ditch wall on the west side of Pinghan Road; Intensified raids and "sweeps" on Taihang and southern Hebei. Through the construction of a large number of roads, strongholds, and pillboxes, the base areas were partially occupied and divided. The Kuomintang troops stationed in Zhongtiao Mountain, northern Henan, Hebei and Shandong border echoed the incident in southern Anhui, and took advantage of the opportunity of the Kuomintang to set off the second **** to repeatedly provoke and friction with the military and civilians in the base areas. The Fan Hanjie Division of the 27th Army crossed the border and invaded the Taihang Pingshun area. Pang Bingxun's troops actively planned to cross the Pinghan Road in the east and enter the Hebei, Shandong, Henan, Pu County, Fan County, and Guancheng areas in an attempt to cut off the connection between the two major base areas in North China and Central China. The Shanxi-Hebei-Henan base area entered a period of serious difficulties.

In order to reverse this unfavorable situation, in accordance with the instructions of the Central Military Commission of the Communist Party of China, the Northern Bureau, and the General Headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, Liu Bocheng and the Eighth Route Army adopted a series of measures to reorganize and train the main corps, strengthen the construction of military regions, develop local armed forces and people's armed forces, and resolutely carry out the struggle against encroachment and "sweeping." The training of the main corps began in late December 1942 and ended at the end of June 1943. It will be conducted in two phases of two months each. In view of the fact that after the Great War of the 100 Regiments, the number of troops was greatly reduced, the grass-roots organizations were not sound enough, the commanders and fighters were not skilled enough in combat movements, and the military skills such as shooting were not perfect, the basic guidelines for the reorganization and training were stipulated: Rapidly improve the tactical skills of the troops, conduct in-depth political education, strengthen the building of company branches, further strengthen the troops politically, ideologically, and organizationally, and enhance the combat effectiveness of the troops. Tactical training was carried out, and exercises were conducted in which small detachments attacked strongholds, field attacks, ambushes, and encounters, thus further enhancing the tactical level of guerrilla warfare of the troops. At the same time, rotational training teams at all levels have been set up to enhance the organizational and command capabilities of cadres. Technique training, focusing on assassination, bomb throwing, and shooting. On the one hand, it has launched an upsurge of mass military training in an organized manner, and on the other hand, it has set up intensive training classes for grassroots cadres of companies, platoons, and squads to train teachers and backbones. Political education, with education on current affairs and policies as the main contents, will enable commanders and fighters to be ideologically prepared to cope with serious hardships and difficulties and to have a policy level for launching an all-round and all-out struggle against the enemy. Party building and political work have been strengthened through the recruitment of a large number of Communist Party members, the intensive training of backbone Party organizations at the grassroots level, and the improvement of the political work system. With regard to strengthening the building of local armed forces, we have perfected the organizational structure of military regions and military sub-districts, and strengthened the basic armed forces of sub-regions. The new 9th Brigade, the 11th Brigade, the 3rd Column and the 10th Brigade were merged with the relevant military subdivisions in southern Hebei and Taihang, and the regiments under their command were changed to regiments based on military subdivisions. By the end of 1942, most of the military subdivisions in the Shanxi-Hebei-Henan base area had one to three backbone regiments (each sub-district in Taiyue was the backbone battalion). At the same time, county and district guerrilla units have been restored, established, and perfected, with county guerrillas numbering in the few tens and in many cases numbering in 2,300 and district guerrilla units numbering in the few dozens and in large numbers numbering more than 100 people. The local armed forces in the entire base area rapidly grew to 56,000 people. With regard to the building of the people's armed forces, we have vigorously grasped the work of developing and strengthening the militia. The militia is the backbone of the armed forces that is not detached from production, and performs a higher level of duty than the Self-Defense Forces, that is, they are engaged in production when the farm is busy, training when the farm is not working, and participating in combat when the enemy army is attacking. The militia of the Shanxi-Hebei-Henan region was created on the eve of the Hundred Regiments War in the autumn of 1942. At the end of December 1942, the Taihang Military Region convened a meeting of armed cadres to formulate the work and requirements for the development of the militia throughout the year. On 18 March, the military region and its sub-districts held separate militia review meetings. In April, the joint offices of southern Hebei, Taihang, and Taiyue and the Taihang Military Region jointly promulgated the "Interim Regulations of the People's Armed Anti-Japanese Self-Defense Forces of the Shanxi-Hebei-Henan Military Region." Then, through democratic elections, the people's armed forces at all levels below the military sub-district level were set up to lead the people's armed forces in mass guerrilla warfare, to cooperate with the anti-Japanese forces in combat, to maintain public order, and to undertake logistical tasks. On this basis, Liu Bocheng issued a series of orders from May onwards, calling for the improvement and strengthening of the guerrilla groups and the launching of an all-round struggle for power against the enemy. A guerrilla group is an organizational form that combines the local armed forces with the people's armed forces, conducts guerrilla warfare extensively and regularly, and cooperates with the regular army in combat. At the village level, the guerrilla groups of the militia are the cadres, and the self-defense forces and other militias are the detachments; At the district level, the district guerrillas are the cadres, and the people's armed forces of each village are the detachments; At the county level, the county independent battalion is the cadre, and the guerrilla groups at all levels are the detachments. The divisional cadre regiments and battalions are dispatched to the county, that is, the cadres of the guerrilla groups in the county. This increasingly perfect organizational form of regional guerrilla warfare was a pioneering feat in the struggle against the enemy and played an important role in the subsequent anti-"sweeping" operations.

The building of political power and the military struggle have always been mutually reinforcing, and the building of political power has been strengthened at the same time as the military struggle. In July, on the basis of the joint office of Taihang and Taiyue in southern Hebei, the Shanxi-Hebei-Shandong-Henan Border Region was established, with Yang Xiufeng as the chairman, and Bo Yibo and Rong Wu as the vice chairmen. The border area has jurisdiction over 4 administrative regions, including Taihang, Taiyue, Southern Hebei, Hebei, Shandong, and Henan. Militarily, the Hebei-Shandong-Henan Military Region is under the leadership of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters, and the 129th Division is also the Shanxi-Hebei-Henan Military Region, with three military regions under its jurisdiction: Taihang, Taiyue, and Southern Hebei. The fulfillment of the above-mentioned series of tasks has created extremely favorable conditions for the struggle against encroachment and "sweeping" in the Shanxi-Hebei-Henan base areas. In October, the Japanese army carried out the third "law and order strengthening" campaign, imposing an economic blockade on the Shanxi, Hebei, and Henan base areas. In line with this, starting in September, the Japanese army carried out a large-scale "sweep" of the Taiyue and Taihang base areas. The sweep began in the southern Taiyue New Area. Yue Nan was originally garrisoned by Kuomintang troops. In May, the Japanese army launched the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain, and the 250,000 Kuomintang troops were defeated without a fight, and most of Zhongtiao and Yuenan fell into the hands of the Japanese army. At the beginning of August, the 386th Brigade and the 1st Column formed the Taiyue Southward Advance Detachment, entered the area south of the Lintun Highway and west of the Qinhe River, and established the Yuenan Base Area. On September 22, the Japanese army tried to take advantage of the unstable foothold of the Eighth Route Army in Yuenan and expel it in one fell swoop, so they concentrated more than 20,000 people into Yuenan to "sweep". Under the extremely difficult conditions in the new area, the Taiyue Southward Advance Detachment adopted the policy of maintaining contact with the Japanese army with small units and avoiding the main force to fight with the Japanese army, so that the combined attacks of the Japanese puppet army repeatedly missed the air, and it had to give up the "sweep" of Yuenan in early October. On 13 October, the Japanese troops that "swept away" Yuenan combined with the Japanese troops around Yuebei, concentrated more than 30,000 men, and started a large-scale "sweep" of the so-called "ironclad encirclement" and "reversal electric shock" against Yuebei, in an attempt to eliminate the Taiyue leading organs and the main force of the troops by means of combined attacks and capture. The military and people in Yuebei made preparations in advance, cleared the wilderness, and dispatched cadres of the basic army to lead the people's armed forces to carry out guerrilla warfare. When the Japanese army entered the hinterland of the base area, the guerrillas, militia, and self-defense forces carried out extensive raids. The main force carried out detachment operations, transferred to the outer line at the right time, attacked the enemy's flank, and inflicted heavy casualties on the enemy in succession at Anze Pimple Ditch and Qinyuan General Ditch. The local armed forces vigorously attacked Tongpu Road, destroying three Japanese locomotives between Pingyao and Lingshi. Through a series of strikes by the Yuebei army and civilians, the Japanese army was forced to withdraw from the Yuebei base area. Liu Bocheng fully estimated that the Japanese army would move troops to "sweep" the Taihang area, and made various preparations in advance. At the beginning of October, he signed and issued a joint proclamation of the Taihang Military Region and the Shanxi-Hebei-Shandong-Henan Border Region, calling on the party, government, military, and people of the whole region to immediately plunge into the struggle against the Japanese army's autumn "sweep", do a good job of clearing the wilderness, carry out the first war and sparrow war, eradicate the traitor spies, and consolidate the interior of the base area. Beginning on October 15, martial law was ordered to be imposed in the entire Taihang region: young and middle-aged people from the Self-Defense Forces and the Youth Anti-Japanese Vanguard were dispatched to the main rural roads to stand guard in place of the children's regiment and check on pedestrians day and night. Those who do not have a permit, carry a gun without an armed license, and act suspiciously will be immediately seized. Armed spies and traitors were immediately arrested, and those who resisted were immediately killed. All grain, cotton, oil, salt, and equipment that may be used by the enemy and necessary for the base areas shall be properly hidden. All politically vacillating elements and suspected elements who may be enemies are to be closely monitored and guarded. On the 16th, Liu Bocheng issued the "Tactical Instructions for Opposing the Enemy's Large-scale 'Sweep'." The article pointed out: At present, the enemy often gathers the maximum number of troops to "sweep" an area and intensify its total strength for a month or even two months in an attempt to completely destroy the manpower, material, and financial resources of the War of Resistance, especially to seek and eliminate the living forces of our army. He also made a detailed analysis of the tactical characteristics of the Japanese army's activities such as feints and confusion, encirclement by iron walls, night raids, tossing and turning, and looting materials, and laid down in detail the essentials of action of the regular army and guerrilla groups, as well as a series of requirements for communications, reconnaissance, espionage, air defense, night warfare, secrecy, and attention to saving ammunition

With regard to the actions of the regular army, it was pointed out that, on the one hand, it was necessary to dispatch the necessary troops and cadres to lead the local and people's armed forces and intensify the tenacious struggle of the all-out guerrilla groups. On the one hand, under the cover of the guerrilla groups, it is necessary to carry out mobile operations, dispatch and assemble at the right time, flexibly enter and exit the inner and outer lines of the base areas, and dispatch to draw the enemy in and out of a joint attack formation, and assemble to effectively surprise the enemy. With regard to the actions of guerrilla groups, those who are behind the enemy are required to wantonly attack the enemy's communications and supply lines, so that the enemy's army cannot be supplied with grain, ammunition, and oil, and cannot continue to "sweep"; Those who are active in the hinterland of the base areas should actively cooperate with the basic army in combat, and use various means such as first-class warfare, sparrow warfare, road breaking, and terrain modification to attack and harass and contain the enemy, detect and report the enemy's situation at any time, and cover the activities of the basic army. On the 23rd, Liu Bocheng and *** held a meeting of cadres of various brigades and military divisions in Taihang District to make specific arrangements for the anti-"sweeping" operation. Leaders at all levels are required to further implement the "tactical instructions," establish and improve temporary command headquarters at the county, district, and village levels, unify the leadership of guerrilla groups and other forces in their respective areas to fight, step up preparations for war exercises, thoroughly clear the wilderness, and prepare for counter-"sweeping" with a high degree of vigilance. On the 31st, the "sweep" of more than 7,000 Japanese troops in the Taihang District began. They were divided into two routes, north and south, and more than 4,000 people of the 36th Division on the south route were dispatched from Lucheng, Xiangyuan and other places. Invaded Licheng, Chi'an, Xijing and other places. More than 2,000 people from the Fourth Brigade of the North Road were independently mixed into the North Road, which were dispatched from Liao County and Wuxiang to invade Dayou, Jiahuo and other places. At this time, the organs of the 129th Division were stationed in Chi'an, and the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army was stationed in Xijing. The Japanese army's attempt was to capture and annihilate these two leaders. That night, the Japanese army on the South Road went straight to Licheng County in three ways. The troops of the 129th Division stationed in Licheng were transferred in time, and the Japanese army pounced. After the Japanese army occupied Licheng, they occupied Dongyang Pass on November 1. Then, the Japanese army took night action and rushed to Chi'an and Wangbao. Along the way, the Japanese army was constantly harassed by guerrilla groups and sparrow warfare. Stopping and stopping all the way, in two nights, but after more than 30 miles, the action completely lost its suddenness. Liu Bocheng commanded the troops and organs of the 129th Division to be ready for battle. The forward command post of the division has long been organized, and the personnel of the headquarters are tentatively organized into three squads according to the nature of their work -- the combat aircraft squad, the communications intelligence squad, and the logistics management squad, plus two platoons of the guard unit, and the total number of personnel is only the size of one company, which is quite capable. Late at night on November 1, Liu Bocheng stood calmly in front of the map in the war room, inquiring about the advance position of the Japanese army and the movement of the main force of the division from time to time. The plainclothes scouts of the divisional reconnaissance team came and went in a hurry, constantly reporting on the enemy situation in the vicinity of the division headquarters. The division's forward command post and the division's direct subordinate units are ready to go. After accurately calculating the possible time for the Japanese army to reach Chi'an, Liu Bocheng set the time for the division headquarters to be transferred at 1 a.m. on the 2nd. When the time came, Li Da asked if he would set off immediately, Liu Bocheng took out his pocket watch and looked at it, then raised his head and moved his gaze to the map, saying: "The devil is still far away, don't move yet, lest the devil find out the direction of our action too early." "After another two hours, the enemy's spearhead occupied the high ground one mile south of Chi'an Village. Liu Bocheng ordered the transfer: "According to the plan, cross the Qingzhang River north, and all personnel are not allowed to make noise, smoke, cough, or make noise, and move forward quietly." "As soon as the team left the entrance of the village, the rearguard unit came into contact with the Japanese army. The people who moved couldn't help but speed up their pace. It is inconvenient to ride a horse at night, so Liu Bocheng also walked with everyone. The team walked out for more than 10 miles in one go, and the gunfire behind them never stopped, and when they turned around, they could still see the fire of the Japanese army burning the village. The plainclothes scouts caught up from behind out of breath and reported to Liu Bocheng that the Japanese army had arrived at Chi'an and Wangbao from Henan Dian and Shexian counties, and that they could not find out where we were going for a while, and were dividing their troops to search nearby. According to the reports of the local guerrillas, there were no Japanese troops in the direction of the northern part of the city, and it was relatively safe. The people were about to continue their march north, when Liu Bocheng suddenly ordered: turn back and go south, heading towards Xigang. Many people muttered in their hearts all the way: Obviously there is no enemy in the north, and there is a large army of Japanese troops in the south, why do they go south instead? When the team was about to arrive at Xigang, Liu Bocheng ordered to turn east and advance towards Handan Long Road. The team crossed the Hanchang Highway, passed through Beigang and Gengle, and turned into the big valley in the eastern part of Shexian County. The mountains are so high and the cliffs are so mislocated that there are almost no paths to be found in the mountains. That's when everyone realized that it was really moved to safety. During the break, someone told Liu Bocheng about the confusion that arose during the march, and asked why he didn't go straight east from Chi'an to here, but went north in a big circle. Liu Bocheng replied: When the Japanese army's "sweep" began, they seized the initiative. And we must take it by surprise and attack it unprepared, so that we can get rid of passivity in the anti-"sweeping" process. The Japanese army has conducted a thorough reconnaissance and study of the movements and patterns of the Eighth Route Army, and in light of the laws of our movements, it has determined the targets of the joint attack and arranged the steps of 'encircling the iron rings' on all directions. And our true deeds are, first of all, not known to the enemy, or if it is known to be outdated. Secondly, the most important thing is our actions, not to let the enemy touch the law, to be elusive, not to fall into the trap, not to touch the hard wall. He looked at the other party's gradually clear face, and continued to explain: If we move directly east from Chi'an, there is a danger that the enemy will be intercepted or attacked east of Hanchang Road, because they also know that the eastern part of Shexian County is precipitous, and we will take advantage of it. Traveling north for a while, drawing the enemy's attention, and then suddenly moving south and east, when they find out that we are too late to stop our movements, this is what Sun Tzu calls in the Art of War: 'I am invisible'. Replacing regularity with regularity is an important principle of our anti-'sweeping'. After saying this, the people around him suddenly realized, and everyone admired Liu Bocheng's strategy and command even more. On November 9, the 36th Division of the Japanese Army concentrated more than 5,000 people and attacked the Huangyadong and Shuiyao areas in an attempt to destroy the arsenal where the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army was located. Relying on the favorable terrain and existing positions, the special task force of the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army launched a fierce battle with the enemy. The Japanese concentrated artillery bombardment, and the infantry launched a strong attack again and again. The commanders and fighters of the special service group responded calmly to the battle and killed and wounded a large number of Japanese soldiers. The Japanese army failed to attack, became angry and angry, and used ***, poison gas and flamethrowers extremely ferociously, and the warriors of the special service group followed one after another, always holding their positions. The snow was falling, and the surrounding peaks were soon covered with white, and the snow on the ground was getting thicker and thicker. But the front of the Huangya Cave position was scorched black, and the smoke of gunpowder dispersed and rose again. After 8 days and nights of hard fighting, the special task force killed more than 800 Japanese puppet soldiers, and took the initiative to evacuate after completing the task of blocking and covering. Liu Bocheng commanded the 385th Brigade and the newly formed 1st Brigade to attack the enemy's flank and actively cooperate with the defense of Huangyadong. The 13th Regiment of the 385th Brigade attacked Licheng at night, bravely broke into the city, and buried more than 100 pieces. When the Japanese army sorted, it triggered many **, causing large casualties. Guerrilla groups in various localities also continued to attack and harass and contain the Japanese army. The Japanese army was beaten everywhere and had to retreat to Xijing in panic in the wind and snow.

Liu Bocheng judged that the Japanese army was eager to return to the nest, that their fighting spirit had declined, and that there were harsh climatic conditions to take advantage of, and he was determined to organize a large-scale ambush battle. He set the ambush site in the valley of 30 acres, Caozhuang, and Changyibei. This is the only way for the Japanese army to return to Licheng from Xijing. From 30 acres to Changzhenbei, more than 10 miles apart, the only access road extends in the trough. On both sides of the road, there is flat land in the near distance and rolling hillsides in the distance. The steep slope of the hill is gentle and gentle, which makes it easy for troops to conceal and develop their fire during ambushes. Liu Bocheng ordered the five regiments of the 385th Brigade, the 386th Brigade, and the newly formed 1st Brigade to lie in ambush on the slopes on both sides of the road from Caozhuang to Changjibei. At 9 o'clock on the 19th, the vanguard of the Japanese army entered Caozhuang, and the ambush troops let it go without fighting. Half an hour later, the Japanese brigade entered the ambush circle. Suddenly, fierce gunfire rang out through the valley, and fire from the hillsides on both sides was fired into the enemy group, and then the soldiers rushed down with bayonets. The Japanese army was shocked by a sudden blow, packed up more than 400 dead bodies, and fled back to Licheng and Lucheng in disarray. After the victory of the anti-"sweeping" campaign, Xinhua News Agency reporters interviewed Liu Bocheng. In response to a reporter's question on the significance of the autumn "sweep" of the Japanese army, he pointed out: First, the duration of the Japanese army's "sweep" was shortened, and the enemy was originally scheduled to "sweep" for a month, but it was crushed in 20 days; 2. Breaking the Japanese army's attempt to establish a stronghold in Licheng and entrench it for a long time; 3. Breaking the Japanese army's attempt to open up the Hanchang Avenue, after the Japanese army occupied Dongyang Pass, the highway road sign had been inserted into Xiangtangpu, which showed their determination to build the road, but this attempt was completely crushed; Fourth, the conspiracy of the Japanese army to sabotage the economic construction of the base areas, destroy the living forces, and capture a large number of strong men was broken. After the start of the Battle of the Hundred Regiments, the Japanese army deployed a "war of destruction" at the end of December 1942 to retaliate against the Eighth Route Army. As many as 5 divisions, 10 independent mixed brigades, and 1 cavalry brigade were incorporated into the battle sequence, and the actual number of troops dispatched was about 150,000. As a result, the various units of the Eighth Route Army continued to counter the "sweep" until January 24, 1943, when the Battle of the Hundred Regiments came to an end.

In December 1942, Okamura Ninji concentrated 240,000 troops to launch an unprecedented "sweep" against the Jin-Cha-Ji anti-Japanese base area, attempting to annihilate the main anti-Japanese force in one fell swoop, besieging the Jizhong Arsenal and the rear hospital, as well as the Bethune Health School in Gegong Village near the Tang River.

In order to break out of the encirclement, Yang Chengwu, commander of the First Army Division of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, led more than 700 people from the command organ of the First Military Region to retreat north of Langya Mountain in Yi County. According to Yang Chengwu's recollection, in the face of being surrounded, they decided to temporarily jump to Huata Mountain, where there is usually no hostile situation, however, "we ran around all night, ran in vain, and actually jumped into the enemy's encirclement!" ”

At this time, 300 people from the logistics department of the Jizhong Military Region, more than 200 students from the Baixiao School, and some people nearby also appeared on the mountain, and nearly 3,000 people were trapped on the mountain.

The seriously injured are afraid that everyone will commit suicide

How do you jump out of the layers of iron walls of the enemy at the bottom of the mountain? After deliberation, Yang Chengwu and others decided to break through to the valley ladder ditch in the northwest direction. The Japanese troops on both sides of Huata Mountain have opened the battle line, Yang Chengwu commanded everyone to march while observing the terrain, and found that the Japanese army was heading towards Shijiazhuang. There were rear hospitals and 300 wounded, who had to be rescued.

Yu Zhongliang, the political commissar of the White School, rushed to ask for the task: "We students all know about medical nursing, and now is the time when we are most needed, let's go!" Yang Chengwu finally decided that some of the backbone students of the White School would be transferred to help the rear hospital transfer with the third district team. Some of the seriously wounded knew that the enemy's situation was extremely critical, and they were afraid that they would cause everyone to be affected, so they shot themselves in the head. A nurse surnamed Qin was catching up with the difficult birth, she tried her best to give birth to the child and hand it over to the last batch of evacuated white school students, she knew that she couldn't walk anymore, and plunged into Longtan Lake......

Nearly 500 people, only forty or fifty broke through

The 3rd District Team and the Baixiao cadets finally caught up with the large army with the wounded and medical staff from the rear hospital, and more than 3,000 people rushed out of the ladder ditch one after another.

Yang Chengwu hoped to jump to the back of Langya Mountain with thousands of people. However, the students of the White School were seriously overdrawn, and the wounded in the rear hospital could not follow the large army over the mountains and mountains, so they finally decided not to evacuate with the large army. These people were resting in the depression at the exit of the ladder ditch, and were about to move south to Wanxian, when someone suddenly shouted: "There are devils on the mountain!" "Before everyone could organize an evacuation, the enemy's machine guns roared and swept over.

Then the enemy screamed and pounced down the hill with bayonets in hand. The male cadets of the White School fought back and fought with the enemy with bayonets. The wounded fought with the enemy with their bodies propped up and rolled down the valley. The unarmed female cadets smashed with stones, grabbed with their hands, kicked with their feet, and bit with their mouths, and fought to the death with the enemy...... In the end, only forty or fifty of all the personnel stood out from the encirclement, and all the rest were killed. The female students of the White School were even stripped naked by the fierce Japanese soldiers and used as a live target to practice stabbing...... The youngest of them was only 12 years old.
