Who will save Wanping Ancient City and Lugou Bridge?
When the car arrived outside this ancient city, I asked the driver to find a parking lot. The driver said, "Look, the car can drive into the city." I am surprised that such a narrow gate can be opened to traffic, so I am not afraid of being hit?
Sure enough, I saw not only cars, but also big trucks passing through the city gate and driving into the ancient city.
The Lugou Bridge in the west of Wanping Ancient City is the only way for Beijing to enter and leave the Inner Mongolia Plateau and go south to the Central Plains. Because of its special geographical location, Wanping ancient city has also become the only place for business travel from south to north.
The ancient city of Wanping was built in Chongzhen in the late Ming Dynasty. In order to prevent the peasant army from attacking the capital, the court ordered Wu Jun, the eunuch of the imperial horse prison, to take charge of the city building work of 1638-1640. The city is located on the east bank of Yongding River, near Lugou Bridge, directly adjacent to the throat of Gyeonggi. As the acropolis, Wanping ancient city is different from other cities in shape and structure. At the beginning, there were no streets, markets, bell and drum towers and other facilities in the city, but only two gates were set in the east, namely Shunzhi Gate in the east and Yongchang Gate in the west (changed to "majestic gate" in Qing Dynasty).
The famous "China People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression Memorial Hall" is located in the center of the ancient city, with a Little Square in front. Unfortunately, the memorial hall has been closed since June+10, 5438. Only after asking the security guard did I know that except for the original facade, the whole memorial hall was being demolished and rebuilt, and the high rocker crane indicated that the project scale was not small. Considering that this year marks the 70th anniversary of the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, it is also necessary to rebuild the building.
According to historical records,1On July 7, 937, the Japanese aggressor troops conducted provocative exercises near the Lugou Bridge, and then provoked troubles to shell the ancient city of Wanping, thus the "July 7 Lugou Bridge Incident" broke out. On the eve of the incident, the 3rd Battalion of National Revolutionary Army 29 army 1 10 Brigade 2 19 Regiment and 2nd Battalion of Security 1 Brigade 2 were stationed in Wanping Ancient City, with more than 400 people, equipped with automatic rifles, light machine guns, heavy machine guns and heavy mortars.

The Japanese army occupied the Lugou Bridge.
In the early morning of July 8th, the Japanese attacked Lugouqiao and Wanping Ancient City, and were resolutely countered by the defenders of China. Since then, the Japanese army has taken a negotiated settlement as a plan to delay the attack. After July 1 1, the war escalated again because of Japanese shelling. On the afternoon of July 28th, China's army was defeated in the battle of Nanyuan. The next day, the Japanese army launched a general attack on Wanping Ancient City and Lugou Bridge. On the 29th, there was a fierce battle between the two sides. In the evening, Japanese engineers blew up the east gate of Wanping ancient city, and the Japanese army rushed into the city. After fierce street fighting, all China troops were evacuated from the ancient city of Wanping at about 8: 30 in the evening, and the ancient city of Wanping fell. Thus, the battle between Wanping Ancient City and Lugou Bridge opened the tragic prelude of the Chinese nation's eight-year war of resistance.
I regard the ancient city of Wanping as the great holy land of China. However, what I saw in the ancient city of Wanping today not only has no historical traces, but also has no old military camps and historical sites for people to mourn. In my eyes, it is just a huge parking lot, full of all kinds of cars.
In the square in front of the memorial hall, the poor lawn was vandalized by cars, and some cars were wrapped in plastic sheets. This must be permanent parking. Cars are also parked on both sides of the only street in the ancient city. The whole ancient city has become a parking lot except for a gap in the middle of the street.
