Dong Cheng ( Han Dynasty ) Dong Cheng ( died 200 ) was an official during the late Han Dynasty . He was also the father of Lady Dong , Emperor Xian ' s favoured concubine . Dong Cheng ' s origins are obsure ; the Qing Dynasty scholar Zhao Yiqing deduced that he was of Dong Zhuo ' s clan , while the Liu Song Dynasty historian Pei Songzhi claimed he came from Empress Dowager Dong ' s branch . Nevertheless , the mysterious Dong Cheng acted as a captain of Niu Fu ' s private militia during the reign of Dong Zhuo ' s rule , but such service ended after Niu Fu had been murdered by his subordinate Huchi ' er in 192 . When Emperor Xian escaped the captivity of the martial regents , Li Jue and Guo Si , flighting Chang ' an for Luoyang in 195 , Dong Cheng worked alongside Zhang Yang , Zhu Zhi and the White Wave Bandits ( led by Han Xian and Yang Feng , as well as the latter ' s subordinate Xu Huang ) to protect the journey of the emperor from the pursuing armies . The emperor and his companions reached Luoyang , but incessant conflict within the imperial loyalists led to further battles fought among them . During the eighth month of 195 AD , Dong Cheng defeated Cao Cao ' s general Cao Hong by allying with Yuan Shu , but Dong ' s political enemy , Han Xian , took the credit . The enraged Dong Cheng then made the startling decision to request military aid from none other than Cao Cao himself . When Cao Cao arrived , Dong Cheng reported to the emperor about the wrongdoings of Han Xian and Yang Feng , scaring away the two and forcing them to flee the imperial city . Thus , Cao Cao entered Luoyang without much resistance . Since the real power remained on the hands of Cao Cao , the emperor was apprehensive of being used as a political puppet . In early 199 , Emperor Xian promoted Dong Cheng to be the General of Chariots and Cavalry , and granted Dong the authority to open an administration . Soon , Dong Cheng claimed to have received a secret edict issued by Emperor Xian ( hidden in a belt ) , and he entered into a conspiracy with Liu Bei , Zhong Ji ( 种輯 ) , and Wang Fu ( 王服 ) to assassinate Cao . Unfortunately , the plot was discovered , leading Dong Cheng , along with Zhong Ji , Wang Fu , and the three men ' s families to be executed . Dong Cheng ' s daughter , who was pregnant at the time , was also killed , despite Emperor Xian ' s strenuous effort to intercede .
Battle of Tolvajärvi The Battle of Tolvajärvi [ ' tol . va . jær . vi ] was fought on 12 December 1939 between Finland and the Soviet Union . It was the first large offensive victory for the Finns in the Winter War . Prelude . After the Winter War broke out on November 30 , the Finnish troops north of Lake Ladoga began a pre - planned retreat before the overwhelming opposition . It was not thought possible for the Soviets to deploy large number of troops in this rugged and almost roadless area , but the Soviets deployed an entire division which advanced along the road between Suojärvi and Tolvajärvi ( now Tolvayarvi , Russia ) . The Soviet advance was a serious threat to the Finnish IV Corps ' lines of communication . To counter this threat the Finnish high command assembled " Group Talvela " commanded by Colonel Paavo Talvela . Plan . The Finnish plan was to encircle the Soviet division by two pincer - attacks over the frozen lakes Hirvasjärvi and Tolvajärvi ( " järvi " means lake in Finnish ) . The northern attack over Hirvasjärvi was to begin at 8 . 00 and the second would start when the first had brought results . This was later changed and both attacks were to begin at 8 . 00 . Battle . The northern group consisting of two battalions soon met Soviet resistance . In fact , they met the Soviet 718th regiment which was preparing to make its own attack on the Finnish flank . By noon , the Finnish troops withdrew to their own lines . Although this attack did not fulfill its objectives , it prevented the 718th from attacking the Finnish flank , and also from sending reinforcements to the south . While the second battalion of the Finnish 16th infantry regiment ( II / JR 16 ) was preparing to attack along the road it was interrupted by an attack from the Soviet 609th regiment . The Finns were still able to attack after they got some artillery support . The Finnish attack continued towards a hotel located on a thin isthmus between the two lakes . Pajari decided to commit his reserves in a pincer attack at the Soviet troops around the hotel . In the end the hotel was captured and in it were found a dead Soviet regimental commander and all the regiment ' s papers . The Finns withdrew over the lakes for the night . In the morning Colonel Talvela demanded a new attack and the Soviet 139th division was pushed back and later ( 20 – 22 December ) destroyed around Ägläjärvi ( now , Yaglyayarvi ) ( some 20 km from Tolvajärvi ) . Contact was also made with the 75th Soviet division which was sent as reinforcements . Aftermath . Finnish losses were over 100 dead and 250 wounded . The Soviet losses are thought to be over 1000 dead and a lot of equipment : the guns of two artillery batteries , AT - guns , some twenty tanks ( s for example ) and 60 machineguns . The battle was an important offensive victory for the Finns and was very important for the morale of the whole Finnish Army .

Fort Cumberland ( Maryland ) Fort Cumberland ( built 1754 ) was an 18th - century frontier fort at the current site of Cumberland , Maryland , USA . It was an important military and economic center during the French and Indian War ( 1754 – 63 ) and figured significantly in the early career of George Washington . History . At the current location of the city of Cumberland , Maryland , a crude frontier fort was constructed at the confluence of Wills Creek and the Potomac River in fall 1754 by troops of the Maryland militia , under the command of Captain John Dagworthy , and under the overall command of Colonel James Innes , the commander - in - chief of colonial forces at that time . Initially named Fort Mount Pleasant , it was renamed Fort Cumberland in 1755 . Ft Cumberland figured prominently in the French & Indian War in 1755 , when it became a rally point for British forces under command of General Braddock . The wood palisade fort is now gone , and occupying the site is the existing Emmanuel Episcopal Church , but the old fort tunnels still remain underneath . This fort once marked the westernmost outpost of the British Empire in America , and was the jumping - off point for General Braddock ' s disastrous expedition against the French at Fort Duquesne . When Braddock was killed , a young officer of Virginia militia , George Washington , lead the troops back to Fort Cumberland . At the fort , Washington clashed with Captain Dagworthy over the issue of military rank and which colonial officer should be in command : Washington was a Major in the Virginia militia , outranking the Maryland Captain , but Dagworthy countered that because he also held a Royal commission as a Captain in the Regulars ( British Army ) , he automatically outranked any colonial militia officer . Description . In May 1755 , one of the British officers with General Braddock described the newly christened Fort Cumberland : " [ It ] is situated within 200 yards of Will ' s Creek , on a hill and about 400 from the Potomack ; its length from east to west is about 200 yards , and breadth 46 yards , and is built by logs driven into the ground , and about 12 feet above it . " Eleven days later , he reported that 100 carpenters were at work building a magazine and constructing a bridge over Will ' s Creek . Diagrams and drawings of the Fort exist in the British Museum . A scale model of the fort resides in the aforementioned church .

Adolfo Scilingo Adolfo Scilingo ( born 1947 ) was an Argentine naval officer who is serving 30 years ( the legally applied limit , although he was sentenced to 640 years ) in a Spanish prison after being convicted on April 19 , 2005 for crimes against humanity , including extra - judicial execution . Charges . Scilingo was charged under Spain ' s universal jurisdiction laws by investigating magistrate Baltazar Garzón with genocide , 30 counts of murder , 93 of causing injury , 255 of terrorism and 286 of torture . He denied the charges but initially refused to plead , claiming to be unwell . In 2005 Doctors ruled Scilingo was fit to stand trial . The murder charges related to 30 drugged political prisoners thrown out of government jets during Leopoldo Galtieri ' s military junta ' s Dirty War against leftist insurgents between 1976 and 1983 . Scilingo had earlier attracted great notoriety for publicly confessing to journalist Horacio Verbitsky in c . 1996 , to participating in the so - called death flights , the first of a series of public confessions collectively called in Argentina the ' Scilingo effect ' ( Feitlowitz 1999 ) . Scilingo was serving a jail term for fraud in Argentina at the time . Judgement . The court found Scilingo guilty of crimes against humanity and torture and sentenced him to 640 years in jail . 21 years for each for the murder of 30 victims , who were thrown from planes to their deaths , and a further five years for torture and five years illegal detention . Scilingo is unlikely to serve more than 30 years in jail as that is the maximum time a person can serve for non - terrorist offences . The Spanish case was the first use of a new Spanish law whereby people can be prosecuted for crimes committed outside Spain . Scilingo ' s confession prompted Argentines residing in Spain to press charges against him . It also led to Chileans living in Spain to file charges against their former dictator , Augusto Pinochet , who was later arrested in Britain at the request of Judge Baltasar Garzon . Alicia Gil Gil wrote in 2005 that use of a charge genocide to initiate proceedings , was a breach of the legal principle " Nullum crimen , nulla poena sine praevia lege poenali " which forms part of Spain ' s constitution , because at the time the offence was committed the Spanish provision on crimes against humanity was not yet in force . On 4 July 2007 , the Supreme Court of Spain increased Scilingo ' s prison sentence to 1084 years ( but effective for only 25 years ) and altered the conviction to the specific penalties provided in the current criminal code for the crimes of murder and unlawful detention , but held that these crimes " constitute crimes against humanity according to international law " .

Date Tsunamune In 1660 , Tsunamune was in the capital of Edo , working on clearing and deepening a waterway in the city ; this was part of the service he owed to the shogun each year , under the feudal system of corvée . A number of his relatives and vassals who opposed his rule came to Edo to petition the " bakufu " ( shogunate ) for his son , Date Tsunamura , to become " daimyō " . Tsunamune was dismissed from his corvée work , and arrested , under the charges of public drunkenness and debauchery to which , as the story goes , he was genuinely guilty . Tsunamura was made " daimyō " , though the " bakufu " did not make this decision lightly . The Tairō Sakai Tadakiyo took a personal interest in the situation , and the Sendai Metsuke visited the area every year , informing the Tairō and other officials in Edo of the situation as well . Though Sakai had been friendly with Tadamune ( Tsunamune ' s father , the previous lord ) , and did not wish to take extreme steps against Tsunamune , he had been delinquent in his responsibilities as " daimyō " , and the pressure from his political opponents was very strong . Ultimately , despite some unsavory behavior on the part of Tsunamune ' s opponents , his son remained " daimyō " .
