Langya Mountain, formerly known as Langshan.
Located on the eastern foot of Taihang Mountain in the west of Yi County, Baoding City, Hebei Province,
it consists of five groups of thirty-six peaks.
It is named because of its numerous peaks, ruggedness, and
wolf-tooth-like appearance.
In 1941, the Japanese invaders carried out a "mopping-up" of the
North China base area.
In order to cover the safe transfer of the large troops,
squad leader Ma Baoyu, deputy squad leader Ge Zhenlin,
and soldiers Hu Delin, Hu Fucai,
Song Xueyi and other five people,
fought fiercely with the enemy for 5 hours and repelled the Japanese army's 4 charges.
After firing the last bullet,
the five warriors bravely jumped off the cliff.
Ma Baoyu, Hu Delin,
Hu Fucai died heroically.
After Ge Zhenlin and Song Xueyi jumped off the cliff,
they were hung on the branches of the cliff and survived,
writing a moving anti-Japanese heroic deed.
