Yang Jingyu. National hero, one of the founders of the Hubei-Henan-Anhui Soviet Area and its Red Army, and one of the main leaders of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Alliance. His original name was Ma Shangde, and his word was Ji Sheng. Born on February 26, 1905 (the 23rd day of the first month of the 31st year of the Qing Dynasty) in Liwan Village, Queshan County, Henan Province. In March 1927, he led the Queshan Peasant Uprising. He joined the Communist Party of China in May of the same year. In early 1928, he was transferred to work for the Henan Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China and was arrested and imprisoned three times in Luoyang, Kaifeng and other places. In 1929, he went to Northeast China on the order of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and served as Secretary of the Fushun Special Branch of the Communist Party of China. He was released from prison after the September 18th Incident in 1931 and served as secretary of the Harbin Municipal Party Committee, member of the Manchu Provincial Party Committee, and acting secretary of the Military Commission. In 1933, he served as political commissar of the Southern Manchuria Guerrilla of the 32nd Army of the Workers and Peasants Red Army of China, and commander and political commissar of the 1st Independent Division of the Northeast People's Revolutionary Army. In 1934, he served as commander-in-chief of the Nanmanchurian Anti-Japanese Alliance, commander and political commissar of the First Army of the Northeast People's Revolutionary Army. In 1937, he served as commander-in-chief and political commissar of the First Route Army of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Alliance. After the Lugouqiao Incident, Yang Jingyu launched the Western Expedition and often attacked the Japanese army to support the struggle within the Pass. In May 1938, the anti-Japanese struggle was launched in Tonghua and Linjiang areas, dealing a heavy blow to the enemy and puppet troops. In the winter of the same year, the Japanese invaders implemented the inhuman policy of returning to villages and merging households, and colluded with the Japanese armed forces to open up farmland and migrate to strengthen the destruction of the anti-Japanese base areas in Nanmanchuria, making the situation of the anti-Japanese coalition even more difficult. Yang Jingyu led more than 1400 people from the First Route Army into the dense forest of Changbai Mountains. The following year, they suffered heavy losses in fighting the enemy in Mengjiang County, leaving more than 400 people in the team. In January 1940, in order to solve the problem of troop supply, the main force of the troops was ordered to move north and he led a small force eastward. On February 23, he encountered several villagers alone in Qiansandaowizi, Baoan Village, Mengjiang County (now Jingyu County), Jilin Province. One of them returned to Datun to leak the secret to the Japanese and puppet authorities; the Kwantung Army crusade team surrounded the general and urgently summoned a puppet Manchukuo secret agent team composed of anti-Japanese rebels to participate in the war; after several hours of fierce fighting, the general was shot in the vital part by the traitor's machine gun and died heroically. After anatomy by the Japanese army, it was discovered that he actually ate cotton in military coats and bark from trees. The traitor, the leader of the secret service team, infiltrated the Eighth Route Army in Shanxi Province after the victory of the War of Resistance and was found and suppressed in the early 1950s.
