The air defense alarm was sounded for the first time in Wuhan at 5 am on August 20th. 1937. The next day, Wuhan was bombed by Japanese planes invading China. With the continuation of the bitter war, one year later,19381kloc-0/October 25th became the most memorable national humiliation day for Wuhan citizens-the day of the fall of Wuhan.

According to Wuhan City Records, from the first alarm to the fall of Wuhan on1October 25th, 1938, the whole city was attacked by Japanese planes 72 times (Hankou 3 1 time, Wuchang 32 times, Hanyang 9 times), and the Japanese dropped 3,080 bombs, killing1658.

At that time, the newspapers and periodicals recorded that "every air raid, bloody pieces flying, flames soaring, houses collapsed, and the homes of many working people were destroyed once, which was terrible." The popular saying "If you have a hometown, you can go back to your hometown, but if you don't borrow it from your hometown, you will only jump into the river", which is a true portrayal of Wuhan's "defenseless city".
