"Red Sorghum" comes from a true story, which happened in the village adjacent to the author's village. First, guerrillas ambushed at the bridgehead of Jiaolai River, wiped out a Japanese detachment and burned a military vehicle, which was a great victory at that time. A few days later, the Japanese came back for revenge, and the guerrillas had already fled. The Japanese killed 100 people in that village, and all the houses in the village were burned down.
