Xiufengshan Park is a newly-built leisure park in the north of the city. It covers a small area, with a total area of about five or six hundred mu, and the highest point is more than one hundred meters, but it is the highest point in the north of the city.
Looking from a distance, the Jinxia Landscape Tower built on the top of the mountain has become a landmark. The mountain is a very good natural forest vegetation, and a mountain stream goes straight down to the bottom of the valley, forming a small xiufengtan.
It happened to be Sunday, and I happened to meet a teacher from a school who organized students to carry out outdoor mountaineering activities here. From the age point of view, it should be junior high school students. I saw the students holding guide maps and punch cards. According to the teacher's request, they set off in groups from different directions and looked for dozens of card points to complete the competition.
Along the way, the passion and vitality of our classmates also infected us, and we soon reached the peak unconsciously. Standing high, overlooking the Xiangjiang River in the west, Laodao River flows into Xiangjiang River from here, and then journey to the south.
The mountain road in the whole park is relatively gentle, with many steps built. There are many small stools and tables along the road, where you can rest, read books and play cards. Breathing fresh air, sunshine in winter and quiet paths here on weekends is really a kind of enjoyment in a fast-paced life.
Wandering around, a "Changsha Anti-Japanese Defence War Slaughterhouse Blocking War Site" attracted everyone. About 80 years ago, during the "Battle of Changsha" during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, the Laodaohe area on Xiufeng Mountain was once a peripheral sniper field to prevent the Japanese from invading Changsha.
The Laodao River blocking war took place in the second battle of Changsha in the autumn of 194 1. The commander-in-chief of Changsha's peripheral operations is General Wang Jiaben, deputy commander of the 79th Army of the National Revolutionary Army and commander of the 98th Division.
Wang Jiaben had previously participated in major battles such as the Battle of Shanghai and the Battle of Nanchang. He took the lead in commanding every battle, killed countless enemies and made outstanding achievements, and was famous for his daring to fight and fight.
The battle in Laodao River is extremely fierce. The 98th Division led by Wang Jiaben hit the Japanese elite hard, with thousands of casualties. This blocking war delayed the Japanese invasion of Changsha and won favorable time for the theater to gather heavy troops in the urban area. After the war, he made outstanding contributions and was named "Wang Jiaben, a general who can fight hard", which was recorded in the minutes of the military meeting.
1On August 8, 944, after more than 40 days of fierce fighting, Hengyang City finally fell. General Wang Jiaben was ordered to lead the 79th Army south from the periphery of Hengyang to stop the Japanese army in Dongan, South Hunan and lengshuitan.
On September 7th, thousands of Japanese soldiers disguised as friendly troops and farmers attacked the military headquarters in Wang Jiaben. He fought to the death with dozens of enemies, and finally fell under the enemy's bayonet, becoming the highest-ranking general who died on the bayonet battlefield in the history of China's Anti-Japanese War.
Time has passed, and the former outer suburbs of Changsha have been integrated into the main city with the development of the city. In just over 20 years, a national-level logistics park has been built in this area north of the city. Modern logistics, cross-border e-commerce, urban industry and commerce markets are full of vitality, forming a living atmosphere of "going lively and entering quiet".
