1981年1月25日中國最高人民法院對林彪、江青集團作出裁決 - 1981年1月25日， 特別法庭庭長江華宣讀特別法庭判決書。判決書確認，林彪、江青集團的犯罪活動前後達10年之久，殃及全國各個地區和領域，使中國政治制度和社會制度受到嚴重的危害，國民經濟和其他各項事業遭到極其嚴重的破壞，給人民帶來極大的災難。特別法庭根據江青等10名被告人犯罪的事實、性質、情節和對於社會的危害程度，分別判處江青、張春橋死刑，緩期2年執行，剝奪政治權利終身。判處王洪文無期徒刑，剝奪政治權利終身。判處姚文元有期徒刑20年，陳伯達有期徒刑18年，李作鵬有期徒刑17年， 吳法憲有期徒刑17年，黃永勝有期徒刑18年，邱會作有期徒刑16年，江騰蛟有期徒刑18年，以上7名罪犯均剝奪政治權利5年。對林彪、江青集團的審判由最高人民法院特別法庭於1980年11月20日正式開庭。 1983年1月25日最高人民法院對江青、張春橋原判處死緩減為無期徒刑。The Gang of Four was a political faction composed of four Chinese Communist Party officials. They came to prominence during the Cultural Revolution (1966–76) and were later charged with a series of treasonous crimes. The gang's leading figure was Mao Zedong's last wife Jiang Qing. The other members were Zhang Chunqiao, Yao Wenyuan, and Wang Hongwen. The Gang of Four, together with disgraced general Lin Biao, were officially blamed by the Chinese government for the worst excesses of the societal chaos that ensued during the ten years of turmoil. Their downfall on October 6, 1976, a mere month after Mao's death, brought about major celebrations on the streets of Beijing and marked the end of a turbulent political era in China. On January 25, 1981, the Gang of Four and their subordinates were sentenced. Jiang Qing and Zhang Chunqiao received death sentences that were later commuted to life imprisonment, while Wang Hongwen and Yao Wenyuan were given life and twenty years in prison, respectively. Supporters of the Gang of Four, including Chen Boda and Mao Yuanxin, were also sentenced.

1945年1月27 中國遠征軍收復緬北，打通中印緬公路 - 1945年1月27日，中國遠征軍和中國駐印軍在緬甸芒友會師，打通了中印緬公路。1941年12月23日，中華民國政府與英國方面在重慶簽署《中英共同防禦滇緬路協定》，中英軍事同盟形成，中國為支援英軍在滇緬（時為英屬地）抗擊日本侵略者、並為了保衛中國西南大後方，組建了中華民國遠征軍。此軍史稱中國駐印軍。 1943年8月，魁北克國際會議決定向緬北日軍發動進攻，軍事行動由中國駐印軍和新調集的中國遠征軍承擔。10月下旬，中國駐印軍向緬北進行反攻。1944年5月，中國遠征軍由雲南向怒江以西日軍反攻。1945年1月27日，兩軍在緬甸芒友會師，中國西南國際補給線中印緬公路完全打通。這是中國與盟國直接進行軍事合作的典範，也是甲午戰爭以來中國軍隊首次出國作戰，立下了赫赫戰功。從中國軍隊入緬算起，中緬印大戰歷時3年零3月，戰爭艱苦而慘烈，中國投入兵力總計40萬人，傷亡接近20萬人，取得了巨大勝利, 完成了中國戰略大反攻的全面勝利. X Force was the name given to the Chinese Expeditionary Force that retreated from Burma into India in 1942 during WWII. These troops were originally sent into Burma from Yunnan by Chiang Kai-shek in 1942 to assist the British in holding back the Japanese. These Chinese forces became broken up, while most retreated back to China, two divisions retreated to India where they were placed under the command of the American General Joseph Stilwell. These forces were re-equipped and re-trained by American instructors at British expense. They were named X Force and used by General Joseph Stilwell as the spearhead of his drive to open a land route to China (the Ledo Road). The outstanding Chinese commander in X Force was General Sun Li-Jen, who led the Chinese 38th Division and was praised by the British Fourteenth Army Commander General (later Field Marshal) William Slim in his book Defeat into Victory. In August 1943 during the First Quebec Conference, the Allies decided to lunch attach to the Japanese forces in Burma. The X force launched its attack on the Japanese from the India side in October. In May 1944, a new Chinese force, known as the Y Force, entered Burma from Yunnan and launched attack on the Japanese from the northeast front. On January 27, 1945, the two sides joined forces in Muse, Burma, and took complete control of the Burma Road / Ledo Road. The first trucks reached the Chinese frontier by this route on January 28, 1945.
2007年1月27日 台灣十項全能運動員、“亞洲鐵人”楊傳廣逝世 - 1933年出生的楊傳廣，在1954年的馬尼拉亞運，以5454分拿下田徑十項的冠軍，而當地報紙就以“ASIAN IRON MAN”稱呼他，這也是楊傳廣“亞洲鐵人”稱號的由來。接著1960年參加第十七屆羅馬奧運，十項運動獲得銀牌，首開台灣在奧運得獎紀錄；1963年參加美國聖安東尼運動會，以9121分打破世界紀錄，也改變日後十項運動的計分方式，往後再也沒有十項選手打破九千分大關。2007年1月27日, 罹患肝癌且中風的“亞洲鐵人”楊傳廣在妻兒的陪伴下，在洛杉磯西北方的聖費南度谷過世，享年74歲。Yang Chuan-Kwang, or C.K. Yang (July 10, 1933 in Taitung, Taiwan – January 27, 2007 in Los Angeles), was an Olympic decathlete from the Republic of China. Yang was a member of the Amis, one of the fourteen officially recognized peoples of Taiwanese aborigines. He attended UCLA where he trained and competed with teammate and Olympian Rafer Johnson. Known as the "Iron Man of Asia," Yang won the gold medal in the decathlon at the 1954 and 1958 Asian Games. He went on to win the silver medal at the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome. In 1963 Yang finally took the Decathlon World Record from his friend Johnson at the Mt. SAC Relays. He was the first man to break the 9,000 barrier under the old scale. When the new tables were re-evaluated, this same score was the first to break 8,000 points under the new system. Yang, who contracted liver cancer in 2001 while he was the president of the National Sports Training Center at Kaohsiung, Taiwan, died on January 27, 2007, due to a massive stroke. He is buried in Ivy Lawn Memorial Park in Ventura, California.
