Kunlun Guan, China's hard gas!Break the blockade of the Japanese invaders, become famous in World War I, and shock the history of the Anti-Japanese War!
Hi friends in military international relations!Today I would like to tell you about a "ice-breaking battle" of great depth and strategic significance in the history of China's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression - the victory at Kunlun Pass. This victory is not only a hard-hearted feat of the Anti-Japanese War, but also a classic case of the first successful confrontation of the squadron against the Japanese army.
First, let's set a scenario. Back in 1938, the Japanese army captured Wuhan and Guangzhou, the center of central and southern China, and the political, economic, and cultural center of gravity of China's anti-Japanese war was forced to shift to the southwest. In order to force China to surrender, the Japanese army decided to completely blockade China's coastal areas and cut off China's ties with overseas. In 1939, China had only one direct outlet to the sea, Guangxi, which became the last window to the outside world. The Japanese army saw this opportunity and was eager to cut off Guangxi's communication channels with overseas.
So, in the autumn of 1939, the Japanese army launched the Guinan operation. They quickly captured Nanning and advanced to Kunlun Pass. We can't help but wonder why the Japanese army was so eager to blockade Guangxi's ties with overseasWhat kind of purpose and motivation is hidden in this?
On December 18, the Battle of Kunlun Pass broke out. The squadron was ambushed in the mountains and launched a full line of ** towards Kunlun Pass. The battle was on the verge of breaking out, and the two sides fought fiercely in various strongholds, and a tug-of-war lasted for half a month. In the end, the squadron conquered Kunlun Pass and won this important battle.
Let's focus on the main story details of this victory. In the Battle of Kunlun Pass, the squadron not only annihilated more than 5,000 people of the 21st Brigade of the Japanese Army, but more importantly, the mortality rate of officers above the squad leader of the 21st Brigade was as high as more than 85%!Even the commander of the enemy's Major General Brigade, Masao Nakamura, was killed in this battle. This astonishing victory achieved the first major victory of the squadron against the Japanese army, and effectively smashed the Japanese invaders' attempt to encircle China from Southeast Asia.
The victory of this battle had a profound impact on China's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. It is not only a symbol of the squadron's breaking the enemy's offensive in the long-term war of resistance, but also a powerful counterattack to the Japanese invaders. The tenacious will and excellent tactics shown by the squadron in this battle became an important spiritual pillar of the follow-up anti-Japanese war.
From the perspective of international relations, the victory at Kunlun Pass also changed the tide of the war to a certain extent. This victory not only broke the Japanese offensive, but also won China more international support. Such an achievement was a huge strategic gain for China at that time.
However, we must also consider this event from the perspective of history with sober thinking. One might question whether this victory was really effective in crushing the Japanese aggressors' plan to encircleSuch a view in the opposite direction is also worthy of our in-depth consideration.
In the context of war, we need to clearly recognize that every victory is based on sacrifice and blood and tears. The victory at Kunlun Pass, although it won a precious opportunity for China to resist the war, also made us deeply feel the cruelty of the war. At this historical juncture, we cannot ignore the heroic soldiers who fought for the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, as well as all the people who silently supported them.
In general, the victory at Kunlun Pass was an important milestone in the history of China's Anti-Japanese War, which showed us the tenacity and courage of the squadron. This story is not only a story of war, but also an epic of unity, struggle, sacrifice and victory. This is the spirit that we should cherish and inherit, let us remember this history and pay high tribute to those brave soldiers.
