Description
“800 Heroes: Defense of Sihang Warehouse" is a postcard wargame about the defense of Shihang Warehouse during Oct.27 to Nov.1 in 1937.
See wikipedia article.
Lieutenant Colonel Xie Jinyuan led over 400 soldiers to fight against the invasion of Imperial Japanese Army and covered the retreating of the Chinese force at the end of the Shanghai Battle. This successful defense provided a morale-lifting consolation to the Chinese army and drew the international support to Chinese government. Those brave soldiers have been called "800 Heroes".
