The first regiment of the Japanese troops stationed in Fengtai started military drills day and night from late June 1937. On July 6, lined-up Japanese forces in Fengtai tried to force their way to the Lugouqiao (Marco Polo Bridge), but were rejected by the Chinese troops garrisoned at the bridge. The Japanese forces retreated after gun-holding confrontation of 10 hours.
驻丰台日军第一团从1937年6月下旬开始日夜军事演习,7月6日,在丰台列队的日军试图强行开往卢沟桥,但遭到驻扎在卢沟桥的中国军队的拒绝。日军持枪对峙10小时后撤退。On the evening of July 7, 1937, Japanese troops launched a "practice with live ammunition" several hundred meters away from the sentry of Chinese forces at the Lugouqiao. At about 11 PM, gunshots were suddenly heard from eastern Wanping County. Later, several Japanese troops were seen outside the county, claiming that one of their soldiers was missing and requesting to enter the county to look for him.1937年7月7日晚,日军在卢沟桥距离中国军队哨兵几百米的地方进行了“实弹练习”。晚上11时许,宛平县东部突然传来枪声。后来在县城外看到几名日军,声称其中一名士兵失踪,要求进入县城寻找他。With the unreasonable request rejected, Renya Mutaguchi, commanding officer of the Japanese regiment, ordered to "fight back." At 5 AM on July 8, reinforced Japanese troops assaulted the Wanping County, and the Chinese 219th Regiment of the 37th Division of the 29th Army launched tenacious resistance. The Lugouqiao Incident was the prelude of the struggle of all the Chinese people against the Japanese aggression.由于无理要求遭到拒绝,日军团长木谷仁雅下令“还击”,7月8日凌晨5时,日军增援部队突袭宛平县,29军37师219团进行顽强抵抗。卢沟桥事变是全中国人民抗日斗争的前奏。长按识别二维码可关注该微信公众平台
