The great man once said: "The Chinese people’s War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression developed on a tortuous road. This war began in 1931." In 1931, Ma Zhanshan was the chief coach and Xie Ke was the staff. The long Heilongjiang garrison launched the Jiangqiao Resistance War. This was the first shot of the Chinese nation against the Japanese invaders, and it took the first step of our country's armed resistance against Japan.
After the September 18th Incident, the Japanese invaded Liao and Ji two provinces one after another. Tao Liao guard envoy Zhang Haipeng treasonously turned to the enemy. Soon after, the Japanese invaders gave Zhang Haipeng a large amount of arms and asked him to cooperate with the invasion of Heilongjiang Province. At that time, the chairman of Heilongjiang Province was far away in Beiping, and the main force in the province was still in the pass. Qiqihar, a huge city, had only one guard regiment.

Obviously the entire Heilongjiang Province did not have enough strength to fight against the Japanese invaders. Countless people fled, panic and chaos permeated. Seeing that no one supported the overall situation, Xie Ke personally presided over the provincial affairs and vowed to coexist and die with Heilongjiang. In early October 1931, Xie Ke called Wan Fulin and Zhang Xueliang and asked them to send a general to support them immediately.
On October 10 of the same year, Zhang Xueliang appointed Ma Zhanshan as the coach to support Heilongjiang, and Xie Ke as the chief of staff. At that time, Jiang and Zhang Xueliang had always advocated a policy of non-resistance, and Zhang Xueliang sent Ma Zhanshan to support Heilongjiang, so that he should focus on defense and avoid conflict with the Japanese.

Under the non-resistance policy, officials of all sizes in Heilongjiang Province feel that the Lord and surrender are the best choices. Then Ma Zhanshan said: "No matter how difficult it is, we must fight the Japanese." In the face of national sovereignty and people's security, how could he choose to surrender. He knew that he had chosen to resist the Japanese invaders and had blatantly violated the policy of non-resistance, which may have caused him to bear heavy charges. But if Gouli country lives and dies, how can it avoid misfortune and luck?
Soon after, the Japanese invaders gave Ma Zhanshan a final confession, and asked him to surrender immediately, or he would immediately invade Heilongjiang. Ma Zhanshan hurriedly convened a meeting. Most of the people at the meeting chose the Lord and Peace. Ma Zhanshan shot the case and said: "I have decided to fight the Japanese invaders to protect my territory and protect my people. If I make a mistake, I will cause trouble to the country. Yes, please cut off my head and send it to you!"

The rest of the officials see Ma Zhanshan Taking all the responsibilities, he stopped talking. On October 13, Zhang Haipeng appointed Xu Jinglong as the forward commander, leading a puppet army of 3 regiments, and sent troops to Heilongjiang under the cover of enemy planes. Three days later, the puppet army launched an attack on the southern end of the Nenjiang Bridge, hoping to take Heilongjiang in one fell swoop. Xie Ke ordered a counterattack and fought fiercely with the puppet army all day and night.
When the sky lights up again, the puppet troops of the 3 regiments are completely defeated. One day later, in the two regiments of the puppet army, Zhang Haipeng could only allow the troops to withdraw to Taonan. In the first confrontation, the defenders led by Ma Zhanshan and Xie Ke won a big victory.
On October 27th, Ma Zhanshan issued a notice to all military and administrative personnel: "Encourage the spirit, do your best, and clean up the various undertakings day by day. We must stop. We still do not know what to do before. Encouragingly, you will give up and neglect the merit order. Once found out, the punishment will be removed.” In addition, Ma Zhanshan also issued a notice to Zhang Haipeng’s troops: “Those who surrender with weapons will be resettled. A reward of 20,000 yuan for foreigners.”

When a series of measures were carried out in Ma Zhanshan, Xie Ke fully cooperated with Ma Zhanshan’s actions. He also handed over Jiang Qiao's military deployment and the list of military supplies to Ma Zhanshan, so that he could quickly understand the situation of the war and prepare for battle. Two of themThe cooperation is very tacit, which provided strong conditions for Jiangqiao to resist the Japanese War.
On November 15, the Japanese invaders once again ordered Zhang Haipeng's puppet army to launch a fierce attack on the defending position. In this battle, both sides suffered huge losses, and the puppet army could only retreat to the battlefield again. Soon after, the Japanese invaders used 5 fighters to bomb along the railway, and unfortunately more than 200 civilians were killed. After that, the Japanese invaders and the puppet army formed a force of more than 4,000 to attack the defenders' positions, and they also dispatched artillery and fighters to bombard the defenders.
Ma Zhanshan and Xie Ke saw the bad situation in the battle. They went to the front line and fought together with the defenders. The soldiers blocked the Japanese and puppet army's offensive time and time again and severely damaged them. However, the follow-up reinforcements of the Japanese invaders continued to rush to the front line, which put the defenders in an increasingly serious disadvantage. Ma Zhanshan looked at the situation in front of him and could only retreat.

When the defenders retreated, the Japanese invaders, under the full cooperation of cavalry, artillery, armored vehicles and aircraft, Step by step toward the defenders. At this time, the defenders ran out of ammunition and had little combat capability. In order not to let the soldiers die in vain, General Ma Zhanshan had to withdraw from the provincial capital Qiqihar on November 19.
Since then, the 35-day Jiangqiao Anti-Japanese War ended and Heilongjiang Province fell.
In the entire Jiangqiao Anti-Japanese War, the strength of the Japanese invaders reached more than 30,000, while the defenders of Ma Zhanshan and Xie Ke were only more than 13,000, and their strength was completely crushed by the defenders. On the other hand, the Japanese invaders have advanced weapons and equipment such as fighter planes, tanks, heavy artillery, and machine guns, while our side only has rifles with a range of 100 meters.
Jiangqiao battle, the defenders led by Ma Zhanshan and Xie Ke outnumbered the enemy and resisted the strong with the weak. They are all true warriors. Although they ultimately failed on the battlefield, they delayed the Japanese plan to quickly occupy the three provinces, invigorated the nation's spirit of resisting Japan and saving the country, growing the ambition of the Chinese soldiers, and dampening the arrogance of the Japanese invaders.
