Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In ancient times millions of years ago, the Datong area was still a vast lake with a suitable climate and abundant rainfall. The outside of the lake and the islands on the lake were covered with dense forests.  During the movement, the vast virgin forest above was buried underground, and after complicated geological transformation, it finally turned into coal.

    After a long period of evolution, some coal fields began to be overturned by orogeny, and their heads popped up. In nature, the history of spontaneous combustion began, and at the same time, it was discovered by ancient humans.

    If you want to talk about archaeology, in the Neolithic Age, the ancient residents in these areas were able to use fire and make stone tools. The fire source used at that time was probably these exposed coals.

    As for the historical airborne, it is necessary to go to the "Shui Jing Zhu" written by Li Daoyuan in the Northern Wei Dynasty, which records the spontaneous combustion of coal seams and the development and utilization of coal in the Datong area.  Then, in Datong, relying on the rich coal resources, metallurgy, ceramics and other industries began to develop rapidly.  , burning bricks, burning ceramics, etc., the Datong area has become prosperous.

    Where there is interest, there will be businessmen. Shanxi businessmen are well-known throughout the country. The main business they do is coal. After the Opium War, Shanxi businessmen even established the provincial Baojin Mining Co., Ltd., referred to as Baojin Mining Co., Ltd.  Join the company and start a group.  Later, Yan Xishan occupied Shanxi. As a local rich man in Shanxi, Yan Xishan certainly would not let go of the Datong Coal Mine. He started to establish the Datong Coal Industry Company, and also controlled the main railway line for transporting coal, monopolizing the Datong area.  Coal production and sales business.

    To say that among the domestic warlords, the richest one is Yan Laoxi, relying on the coal from Shanxi, but later, the little devil entered Shanxi, and all the coal resources in Datong, large and small, all fell into the little devil's possession.  hand.

    Throughout the War of Resistance Against Japan, the little devils looted 14 million tons of coal resources from the Datong Coal Mine.

    Compared with these resources, there are countless human lives, and the latter is even more infuriating.

    Since the little devils occupied the Datong coal mine, they began to brutally implement the bloody policy of "exchanging people for coal". In their eyes, they didn't care about the life and death of the miners at all.  More than 60,000 miners were tortured to death, an average of 4 miners died for every 1,000 tons of coal produced.  It can be said that this is the history of the blood and tears of the miners. The black coal mined has the blood of countless miners on it.

    Qin Baoshan remembers very clearly that in the time and space where he was originally, he once traveled and saw the mass grave in Nangou, Meiyukou, Datong.  middle-aged men, they were all exhausted to death by the hard work of mining.

    At that time, hundreds of miners were imprisoned in a large room with poor sanitation, lack of food and clothing, and then they were escorted by devils to mine coal underground. If they slowed down a little, they would be beaten.  There are often miners who are tortured to death.

    Especially after 41 years, infectious diseases began to spread in coal mines. This large-scale infectious disease did not stop until the winter of 43 years. These two years were the time period when a large number of miners died  Yes, the devils even set up a special team to pull corpses, not only those who had died, but even those who were alive, as long as they got sick, they would all be pulled out and thrown away.

    The mass graves unearthed by later generations are the evidence of the many evils that the little devil has ravaged on my land of China. Therefore, now that he has come here and now has the strength, Qin Baoshan suddenly appeared this  Thoughts, and then, the ideas get more and more urgent.

    Since we are going to fight a hundred-regiment battle, it is natural to fight vigorously. Go to the Datong Coal Mine, rescue the miners there, and destroy all the mines there!  Give the little devil the heaviest blow!

    Hearing Qin Baoshan's words, the brigade commander frowned: "It's not the sphere of influence of our brigade, and it's too far away from us, so it's not convenient for us to go there. The situation there is really too complicated."

    In the history of the Anti-Japanese War, there are glorious histories of the Anti-Japanese War everywhere, but when it comes to the ground in Datong, it seems that there are very few, and there are very few records of various materials.

    Back then, when the devils came to fight, the Jinsui Army and the Central Army all ran away. Only the Eighth Route Army came and won the battle of Lingqiu Pingxingguan.  This victory also revealed the prestige of the Eighth Route Army. Later, as the situation changed, the Eighth Route Army also began to act after entering the Datong area, and successively established the Lingqiu Anti-Japanese Base, Hunyuan Anti-Japanese Base, and Guangling.The Japanese base area, the Dahuai Zuo Anti-Japanese Base Area and the Sanggan River Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Area.  It used to be a vigorous development.

    However, the little devils are also quite cruel. After they occupied Datong, in order to intimidate the local people, they created a large number of massacres. Among them, five cases killed more than a thousand people.  In Shuo County, they killed more than 3,800 people; in Tianzhen County, more than 2,300 people were killed; in Yanggao City, more than 1,000 people were killed; in Lingqiu City, more than 1,000 people were killed; in Lingqiu East and Henan Province, more than 1,070 people were killed.

    The devils rely on this cruel massacre to scare the locals. Therefore, the base area of ??the Eighth Route Army there is not large and has not developed.

    In addition to the horrific massacre of devils, the local forces are also complicated. Since ancient times, troublemakers have emerged from poor mountains. Shanxi has many large and small bandit organizations, and there are many near Datong.

    Some bandit organizations are for beating devils, and some bandit organizations are accomplices of devils.

    "His grandma, how did the Eighth Route Army in the local base area do it? Are the guns in their hands just fire sticks?" Hearing what the brigade commander said, Li Yunlong was annoyed there: "Even a base area can't develop.  , if Lao Tzu¡¯s Independent Cavalry Regiment passes by, we will surely turn all the mountainous areas into our territory!¡±

    There are base areas and the Eighth Route Army in the local area, but the development is very difficult. These words are absolutely unusable in Li Yunlong's ears.  This is simply embarrassing!

    "Your troops are going to go?" The brigade commander glanced at Li Yunlong. There was obviously a unique meaning in that look. Hearing what the brigade commander said, Li Yunlong quickly smiled: "Brigade commander, my regiment also has to  It is under your command, we will do whatever you say."
