10 sites in China that commemorate the war against Japan

The statue of Five Heroes on Langya Mountain. During the war in 1941, five communist soldiers successfully deceived the Japanese army into believing they were besieging the main army while marching to Langya Mountain. When the Japanese found out, the five solders jumped off the cliff as they ran out of bullets. Three of them died and two luckily survived. The story was made into a movie in 1958 by China’s August First Film Studio. [Photo/IC]
