What are the tragic moments in history?
First of all, members of the boxer rebellion

In the late Qing Dynasty, there were such a group of ordinary people who had no cultural level and knowledge literacy. They are just ordinary people, but most of them resolutely embarked on the road of anti-imperialism with the psychology of expelling Tatars.

Maybe a relative was killed by a foreigner, or maybe he didn't like being bullied by foreigners. Although they may not know the difference between good foreigners and bad foreigners, their patriotic enthusiasm makes people cry. They are just ordinary people, who can be spectators in Lu Xun's works, but with great ambition, they used all their bodies to resist the swords and guns of foreigners, and finally died tragically under the swords and guns of their compatriots.

They are ordinary people who participated in the anti-imperialist movement of the Boxer Rebellion. I can't get rid of the photos of the Boxer Rebellion in the history books. In that film, rows of cavalry rushed into the bullets of foreigners and fell down in rows, but no one turned and fled, knowing that it was death, but still generously died. The Boxer Rebellion truly reflects the actions of patriots under specific national conditions.

Second, there is no China behind the cliff, and 100,000 soldiers and civilians have perished.

The Battle of Yashan, also known as the Battle of Yamen, the Battle of Yamen and the Battle of Yamen in the Song and Yuan Dynasties, was 1279 (in the second year of Xiangxing in the Southern Song Dynasty, the 16th year of Yuan Dynasty), a large-scale naval battle of Song and Meng armies in Yashan, and a rare naval battle in ancient China.

Yashan Mountain is located in Yamen Town, about 50 kilometers south of Xinhui District, Jiangmen City, Guangdong Province. It is the place where Yinzhou Lake goes to sea and the entrance and exit of tidal fluctuation. There are cliff mountains in the east and soup bottle mountains in the west. The veins of these two mountains extend southward to the sea. For example, a door binds the nozzle, just like a half-open door, so it is also called yamen.

The Battle of Yashan is directly related to the survival of the Southern Song Dynasty, so it is also the decisive battle of the Song and Yuan Dynasties. At the end of the war, the Yuan army was outnumbered, and Song Jun was wiped out. When the Southern Song Dynasty destroyed the country, Lu Xiufu threw himself into the sea behind his little emperor Zhao Min, followed by many loyal ministers, and hundreds of soldiers and civilians jumped into the sea to die.

After this campaign, the downfall of Zhao and Song Dynasties also meant the complete extinction of the remnants of the Southern Song Dynasty, and the Mongolian Yuan finally unified all China. China was conquered by the northern nomads for the first time.
