On September 30, 1941, the Japanese army smuggled across the Yellow River and attackedDahong Village, Hansi Township, Zhongmu County.
Before dawn, more than 80 villagers and migrant workers were all killed. Villager Lin Keqiran away with his mother and sister, and several Japanese criminals chased after him. Lin Keqi's family of three relied on their familiarity with the terrain and quickly got rid of the devils who were following them.
After dawn, they found their grandfather hiding in the fort in the south corner of the village, and in addition to the grandfather, there were hundreds of villagers who had taken refuge in the fort. Grandpa saw that there were too many people hiding in the fort, and he was worried that the Japanese army would search here, so he fled to the southwest with his family.
Who would have thought that just after escaping half a mile, the family was discovered by devils. The devil shoots at them, Lin Keqi, grandpa and mom are allHe was shot and fell to the ground。Thinking they were dead, the Japanese did not continue their pursuit, and the family took the opportunity to crawl into a nearby trench and hide.
A day passed, and the fighting was still burning, the gunfire was getting denser, and bullets and shells were raining down on them. The ignorant sister cried and shouted for water, but Lin Keqi didn't dare to say anything, because he was injured and bled a lot, and he was also thirsty. Mother and grandfather looked at the two poor children, anxious but helpless.
After staying up until dark, the grandfather ventured back to the village to get water to drink, but his mother thought it was too dangerous and did not let him go. After waiting like this for another day, the grandfather did not wait any longer the next night, and risked his life to return to the village. Lin Keqi and his sister expected Grandpa to get water and come back, but the night passed, and I didn't see Grandpa come back, and two days passed, and I didn't come backI waited for three days and four nights, and I didn't see him back.
When the fighting stopped, they were found by their surviving father, who said that his grandfather had returned home that night to fetch water and had been confronted by Japanese soldiers. He walked over with a small bucket of waterUnder the begonia tree at the west end of the village, he was killed by a shot by the Japanese army, and the water in the bucket hit the ground.
When Lin Keqi heard the news, his heart was filled with grief. My father was hiding in the village at the timeHe said something extremely horrible.
On 12 August, the Japanese army wantonly set fire to the village, killing 67 villagers, including Lin Jingzhi, Lin Guoen, Lin Guoliang, and Xiao Qinggan, and 38 migrant workers from other places.
Some were shot dead in the house, some were hacked to death with knives, and some were beheaded to death. Lin KeliangFour members of a family of eight were killed, and Lin Keliang's eldest son had just gotten married and was still wearing a wedding dress. After the Japanese army ruined the bride, they stripped the young couple of their clothes and tied them to a tree.
The Japanese invaders were first beaten with whips and sticks, and then cut their bodies with sharp bayonets. Cut a knife, stop, and every time you cut a knife, the little couple screamed a few times. From morning to noon, the young couple was cut all over their bodies, and the skin and flesh under their feet were piled up. The little couple died tragically under the butcher's knife like this, which is really tragic.
On August 15, before retreating from the village, the Japanese looted from house to house and set fire to the houses. The fire burned for seven days and seven nights, and after half a month, the embers were not completely extinguished. The earthen walls were burned to red, the stone mills were burned to pieces, and more than 1,000 houses were burned. Its tragic feelings are really unspeakable.
