Today, I saw netizens asking: "What year was the 128 Incident?" The answer is 1932. In detail.

The January 28 Incident was an incident of Japanese imperialism's invasion of Shanghai. After the September 18 Incident in 1931, Japanese imperialism gained an inch and attempted to occupy Shanghai as a base for continuing its aggression against China. On the night of January 28, 1932, the Japanese invading army attacked from the concession to the Zhabei area, and the 19th Route Army stationed in Shanghai, under the impetus of the anti-Japanese upsurge of the people of the whole country, rose up to resist and began the January 28 War of Resistance.

Due to the Kuomintang's adherence to the policy of non-resistance and the sabotage of the Songhu War of Resistance, the 19th Route Army was forced to withdraw from Shanghai. Under the heroic struggle of the Shanghai army and people, the Songhu War of Resistance lasted for more than a month, inflicting heavy blows on the Japanese invaders, killing and wounding more than 10,000 people, and changing commanders four times. Due to the mediation of Britain, the United States and other countries, the Kuomintang and Japan signed the "Songhu Armistice Agreement". This agreement stipulated that the Japanese army would return to the pre-war range, and the squadron could not be stationed in the downtown area of Shanghai. It can be said that the Chinese side has suffered a certain loss. And because the Japanese army was still stationed in Shanghai, this laid the groundwork for the second Shanghai Incident, that is, the "August 13" Anti-Japanese War, that is, the "Battle of Songhu", especially for the collapse of the entire front line in Shanghai.
