The July 7 Incident, a major event in China's modern history recognized by the world, not only heralded the Chinese nation's march towards war, but also began a journey to save suffering. As patriots, we must learn to look back on this period of history, understand the hardships and struggles of our ancestors, and deeply understand the lessons of grief and valuable experience.
The 77 Incident, also known as the Lugou Bridge Incident, occurred at around 4 a.m. on July 7, 1937, at the Lugou Bridge in the southwest of Beiping. This place has now become a cultural heritage protection site in Beijing. This incident was a severe test of Japan's war of aggression against China, and it was also the opening battle of the Chinese nation's all-out war of resistance.
On the night of this day, the Japanese army forced the squadron to withdraw from the city of Beiping on the grounds of the so-called "disappearance of a soldier". The squadron resolutely rejected this unreasonable demand, thus triggering a war. Over the next few days, the Japanese launched a fierce assault on the Chinese defensive positions on both sides of the Lugou Bridge, and the fighting continued along the way. The squadron was undaunted and resisted, showing amazing courage and perseverance.
According to historical records, the tragedy of the war at that time can be seen. In the Battle of "Nanyuan", Tong Linge, deputy commander of the 29th Army, and Zhao Dengyu, commander of the 132nd Division, died heroically. They sacrificed themselves to write a heroic song of resistance, demonstrating the invincible spirit of the Chinese people.
This war is speeding up.
The outbreak of the July 7 Incident stimulated the patriotic enthusiasm of the people of the whole country and opened up the situation of the all-people War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. At this critical moment when the life and death of the Chinese nation is at stake, all compatriots unite to jointly resist foreign enemies and defend the dignity of the motherland. Countless patriotic young people have thrown themselves into the struggle against aggression, and the Chinese at home and abroad have also given strong support. The Communist Party of China stood up at this critical moment and put forward the line and policy of all-out war of resistance, which won strong support for the war of resistance.
The July 7 Incident decisively changed the relations between China and Japan, reversed the historical course of Chinese society, and paved the way for China's victory in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. The July 7 Incident will forever remain in the hearts of the people, not only as a memory of history, but also as a bridge for us to love peace and carry forward the patriotic spirit.
The tragic outbreak of the July 7 Incident tells us a warning: If we fall behind, we will be beaten. Therefore, we must carry forward the great spirit of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, pay attention to the improvement of national strength, and contribute to lasting peace. To sum up, the July 7 Incident will certainly leave a large chapter in China's modern history, marking the full-scale outbreak of China's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the starting point of the Chinese nation's all-out struggle. During this war, the squadron marched forward bravely and spared no effort to protect the honor of the motherland. When facing the danger of collapse, the descendants of Yan and Huang worked together to devote themselves to the great cause of defending the country. We should remember this period of history, cherish the current peaceful environment, carry forward the spirit of patriotism, and devote ourselves to realizing the great rise of the Chinese nation.
