On this day, 121 years ago, on August 7, 1904 (June 26, 1904 in the lunar calendar), Japan and Russia launched a battle in Liaoyang and Lushun in our country. During the Russo-Japanese War, many China people were killed by the Japanese army as Russian spies. On August *, 1904, Russia deployed the main force of the army to fight in Liaoyang. Due to a command error, the Russian army lost with superior troops and strong fortifications to defend. In this battle, the Japanese suffered 24000 casualties and the Russian suffered 16000 casualties. At the same time, the competition between Japan and Russia for the Lushun Fortress is also fierce. After the Japanese army occupied Jinzhou Dalian, Lushun Fortress was isolated. Tsarist Russia has relatively strong military strength and strong fortifications in Lushun. On the rear line around Lushun Pass, about 50 miles long, there are more than 20 permanent and solid fortresses such as Baiyin Mountain, Dongjiguan Mountain, Erlong Mountain, Songshu Mountain, Yanshan Mountain, Yizhishan, etc. built with stone and concrete. When these fortresses were built,"more than 60,000 China workers were working day and night every day." Russia had 42000 army officers and soldiers in Lushun, and later transferred 11000 sailors from the Pacific Fleet to participate in the land defense. The weapons were equipped with 646 cannons and 62 machine guns, and they were ready to defend themselves with solid fortifications. In addition to the 1st and 11th divisions and three artillery wings, the Japanese Third Army added the 9th Division and special siege forces, with a strength of 57000. On August 7, the Japanese army began shelling Russian warships in Lushun Port and the city of Lushun. On the open ground in front of the second line of defense behind Lushun Pass, Tsarist Russia drove residents of dozens of villages, large and small, to the mountains, and all their houses were blown up. Many villages have no tiles left, except Wujiafang Village has five houses left. During post-war reconstruction, the village was renamed "Five Rooms". The tsarist Russian army looted everywhere. In Shaojia Village, Lushun, they stole more than 200 cattle at one time. Japan and Russia arrested China people to transport ammunition and perform hard labor. Many people died under Japanese and Russian artillery fire, and many innocent compatriots were falsely accused of being spies and killed. On the 19th, the Japanese army launched a general attack on Lushun with the support of 300 cannons. The 1st Division is on the right wing and mainly attacks the Dadingzi Mountain in the west, the 203 Highlands and other places; The 9th Division mainly attacks Longyan North Fort, Songshu Mountain Fort and other places, while the 11th Division is on the left wing, mainly attacks Dongjiguanshan North Fort, Panlong Shandong Fort and other places. After fierce fighting. The Japanese army suffered more than 15000 casualties, accounting for a quarter of the Third Army. The losses were very heavy. At the same time, the Northeast Justice Army, composed of "Beards" recruited by the Japanese army, began to attack the Russian army. On the night of August 5, more than 3000 horse thieves attacked the grain platform set up by Russia in Tieling. The garrison soldiers were asleep, and suddenly it was suspected that Japanese soldiers were attacking. The morale of the army was in chaos and they killed each other. The Russian soldiers lost more than 600 people. The bandits then seized the grain, pay, and ordnance stored by the Russians, and set fire to any that they could not carry.
