In recent years, there have been many anti-Japanese "dramas", which have aroused complaints from netizens, especially the "hand-torn devil", which has been praised by netizens as "Hengdian's famous dish". So, on the real anti-Japanese battlefield, how do martial arts masters fight devils?Today, let's talk about Dou Laigeng's story.
Dou Lai Geng is a native of Linqu, Shandong, born in 1900, Xi martial arts since childhood, visited famous teachers, is the Wudang Taiyi Sect descendant **, a martial arts master. In October 1928, Dou Laigeng defeated all martial arts masters in the first national martial arts competition, and finally won the "best class". * Zhang Zhijiang and Feng Yuxiang, the curators of the National Art Museum, personally awarded him a Longquan sword and a pennant, and Feng Yuxiang also personally inscribed the four characters "I Wu Weiyang" for him. Han Fuyu, who was serving as the chairman of Shandong Province at that time, was also very optimistic about Dou Laigeng, so he appointed him as the deputy director of the Shandong Guoshu Museum. During Dou Laigeng's tenure, he personally taught thousands of people, and many of them became martial arts masters under his words and deeds.
After the outbreak of the all-out Anti-Japanese War, Dou Laigeng was serving as Han Fuyu's chief of security, and originally wanted to follow Han Fuyu to fight devils, but unexpectedly when the Japanese army attacked Shandong, Han Fuyu fled without a fight. Because of Dou Laigeng's prestige in the martial arts world in Shandong, hundreds of martial arts masters soon came to take refuge, and Dou Laigeng led this team composed of martial arts masters to adopt a sneak attack strategy against the Japanese invaders. On the evening of April 12, 1938, Dou Laigeng led hundreds of martial arts masters to raid into the camp of the Japanese puppet army, killing more than 70 Japanese puppet soldiers, and the remaining devils fled one after another, which was also the first victory in the history of Shandong Linqu anti-Japanese resistance. After that, the Volunteer Army led by Dou Laigeng was reorganized into the 17th Brigade of Shandong Provincial Security, with a total number of thousands of people, and became an anti-Japanese force that could not be underestimated on the battlefield in Shandong. Around 1942, because of the burning and looting of the Japanese puppet army, coupled with natural disasters, the crops failed, and the population of Linqu was greatly reduced, but the Japanese puppet army still extended the ** to Linqu. Dou Laigeng got the news that more than 200 small carts had been mobilized in the Japanese puppet army stronghold to transport the grain away. Dou Laigeng discussed with his subordinates to intercept this batch of grain.
Dou Laigeng set up an ambush on the road that the Japanese puppet army must pass, and when the Japanese puppet army entered the ambush range, the 17th Brigade immediately surrounded the Japanese puppet army, and the Japanese puppet army abandoned the grain cart and fled for its life. On August 29, 1942, the Japanese army mobilized more than 3,000 people to outflank the 17th Brigade in three routes. In the face of the Japanese army's big report, some people advised Dou Laigeng not to respond to the enemy first, stay in the green mountains, and not be afraid of running out of firewood, but Dou Laigeng insisted on fighting the enemy to the end. This time the Japanese army is very strong, well-prepared, advanced, Dou Laigeng's side is not only few people, but also backward equipment, in the battle with the Japanese army, the team of several thousand people is less than 100 people, even Dou Laigeng himself was seriously injured. The Japanese army shouted to catch the live and let Dou Laigeng surrender, and Dou Laigeng shouted: "The Chinese cannot be killed!."Then he committed suicide at the age of 42. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Dou Laigeng was posthumously awarded the rank of lieutenant general. In 2014, Dou Laigeng was selected into the first batch of 300 famous anti-Japanese martyrs and heroes.
