Traveling with “Teacher Qiu Yu”
As a Chinese person, I am particularly sensitive to the name Shunichi Terauchi. 🌸🍃 On July 7, 1937, following the Marco Polo Bridge Incident, Terauchi was appointed as the Commander of the Japanese North China Area Army. 🌇Under his command, the Japanese forces advanced from Beiping (now Beijing) into Shanxi, Shaanxi, and Gansu, aiming directly for Lanzhou. The Hirose Division, which suffered a heavy blow from the Chinese army in the famous Battle of Pingxingguan, was also under his command. 🌸🍃 This warlord, who drenched the ancient Yellow River basin in blood, eventually hid in this obscure corner. 🕳️ 🌇Stop 35: Japanese Cemetery Park 📍 Location: Singapore #YuQiuYu #CulturalPilgrimage #Singapore
