The war was a humiliating experience to the
indispensible Japanese army. It was the first major victory by any Chinese army
against Japan. The war brought an end to Japanese army's intention to capture
Xuzhou, a strategically important major city in the Easters side of China. Under
brave Generals Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi, the Chinese troupes encircled the
Japanese army in the city of Tai'erzhuang and pulverized them without giving a
chance to escape. During the entire operation, the Chinese army captured 719
Japanese soldiers and large quantity of ammunitions that included 1,000 machine
guns, 10,000 rifles and various other equipments including vehicles and armored
carriers.
The war was a consequence of violation of one
year truce agreement between China and Japan. The Japanese army violated the truce
conditions and started hunting the retreating Chinese army from the
Changhai-Nanjing battle field. It was here the Chinese KMT 5th War regiments
engaged with the Japanese army. The Japanese plan was to attack KMT through the
Jinpu Railway from the southern and northern side and force KMT to surrender. But
the powerfull resistance and meticulous military plan gifted the much deserving
victory to the valiant fighters of Chinese army. You can find all the step by
step narration of the military movement in the War Memorial Hall. It will be a pride
moment for any spirited Chinese to visit this memorial hall and pay homage to
those brave soldiers who laid down their precious life to liberate China from
Japanese forces.
