History
In the summer of 1942, when the Japanese army was reported to have come to raid the area, the guerrillas quickly evacuated with their firearms and hid themselves in the Tanchai Mountain behind Sulu. When the Japanese army failed to find the guerrillas, they took Yang Zhunan away and imprisoned him for more than a month. The Japanese tortured him to force him to give information about the guerrillas, but he refused, insisting that he did not know.[1]
