On December 7, 1941, the Japanese Navy raided Pearl Harbor, leading to the United States entering the Pacific War. With the development of the war, the US Air Force flew corps to provide necessary assistance to support China's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and effectively promoted China's struggle against Japan.
In 1944, due to the negligence of the American translators, the translation of a word was wrong, resulting in the accidental bombing of Liuzhai Town in Guangxi by nine US planes, causing the deaths of tens of thousands of Chinese people, including three generals.
In the winter of that year, the Japanese invaded Guangxi again, and Guilin fell. ** Zhang Fakui, commander of the Fourth Theater of Operations, retreated from Liuzhou to Hechi Town.
However, due to Lao Chiang's order to "passively resist Japan", Zhang Fakui was forced to adopt a two-step retreat plan.
In the first step, he planned to retreat to Liuzhai Town, which is located about 50 kilometers north of Nandan County, Guangxi, and 7 kilometers away from Mawei Railway Station in Guizhou Province; In the second step, he planned to continue the retreat in the direction of Guiyang and Dushan in Guizhou.
Liuzhou was lost, Yishan was in an emergency, and refugees were surging on the Guizhou-Guizhou railway and highway, and it was chaotic. In order to escape, people are desperate, and there are not enough train cars, so they sit on the roof of the car, and when they cross the tunnel, they are miserable.
There are countless people fleeing on the road, and once the uphill car stops, the people behind will push the cart down the valley together, and the suitcases are scattered all over the place, and no one will pick them up.
Refugees who do not have a car to sit in their hands will also be discarded on the side of the road. These ** are 100 kilometers long, sleeping in the open air, and the elderly and children cannot take care of them. The old and weak women and children who fell can only be trampled on by others, and they cannot take care of the aftermath.
Chen Sunong, commander of the 17th Army, was ordered to lead his troops from Guiyang to advance against the retreating 93rd Army and the refugees, making the order of the road even more chaotic.
Coupled with the corruption of military discipline in the 93rd Army, the frequent occurrence of robberies and women's incidents, the lives of ordinary people are even more difficult.
Chen Sunong asked Chongqing** to send planes to bomb the Liujia railway station to prevent military supplies from falling into the hands of the enemy and at the same time to stop the invading Japanese army. Chongqing** immediately contacted the U.S. military for assistance.
At 9 a.m. on 25 November, the U.S. military dispatched nine planes to circle around the area around Rokko and dropped leaflets along the highway to remind the refugees that it was safest to take the small roads, and also notified them to block and bomb the roads so that the refugees could take refuge in nearby villages.
Since the plane sign was Allied forces, the people were not afraid, but gathered on the road ** US planes soared. The U.S. plane left after a circle in Nandan.
At one o'clock in the afternoon on Liuzhai Street, nine planes suddenly appeared in the sky, and with them dropped countless heavy bombs. In this brief moment, the sound of bombing, the shouts of people in terror, and the cries of children mingled.
Countless innocent people on the streets lost their lives in the **.
Then, the plane began to fire heavily with machine guns, and then flew in the direction of Macheng. The bombing by the US military turned Liuzhai into ruins, and nearly 10,000 people were unfortunately killed.
More than half of the special service regiment of the Fourth Theater Command includes Lieutenant General Chen Keqiu, Major General Education Chief Wang Huiwu, and an anti-aircraft gun commander. Houses on the streets were bombed into rubble, schools, companies and other institutions were burned to ashes, and supplies in the four war zones were also severely damaged.
An air raid that was supposed to bomb Liujia was supposed to bomb Liujia, but because of the transliteration error of the navigator of the US plane, it accidentally bombed Liuzhai, causing heavy losses of personnel and property.
Although the cause of ** has been identified, the United States and *** passed the buck to each other and did not want to take responsibility for this tragedy, which eventually led to the end of the matter.
