"The rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the puppeteer." When the country and the nation are facing extinction, everyone has the responsibility and the obligation to stand up and contribute their own strength to the country and the nation.
On July 7, 1937, the ambitious Japanese took the opportunity to launch the Lugou Bridge Incident and began to invade China's north China.
"Sima Zhao's heart is known to everyone", everyone knows that this is just the beginning. After invading and occupying North China, Japan's next step must be to gradually begin to encroach on other territories of our country.
During the "August 1 Incident," Chiang Kai-shek, who could no longer be provoked, also woke up in this matter.
From the attitude of "ordering and never resisting" to "resisting to the end". Japan's actions aroused the indignation of patriotic people throughout the country, and the Kuomintang and the Communist Party launched a second cooperation, opening the prelude to the national War of Resistance.
Since the Northern Expedition, the old warlord forces have been wiped out, and the Nationalist government in Nanjing has unified the mainland. However, this unification was only formal, and the Northern Expedition actually only reshuffled the warlord forces once, but did not completely eliminate them.
But in the face of national survival, these warlords no longer think only about their own selfish interests. Under the unified orders of the National Government, troops were sent out to fight. In the midst of the nationwide war of resistance, the warlords in Xinjiang and Xikang seemed to turn a deaf ear and did not send troops to resist Japan.
In the Defense of Guilin in 1944, the 20,000 troops of the Gui clan, facing the Japanese army's 150,000 troops several times larger than their own, did not show the slightest weakness and fought bravely.
Unfortunately, due to the disparity in armaments between the two sides, they were outnumbered and there was no rescue, and the whole army was eventually destroyed. In the moment before they fell, they also used the last bit of strength to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy.
The Sichuan army led by Liu Xiang, the king of Sichuan, was even more active in the anti-Japanese resistance. After the Lugou Bridge incident, he took the initiative to ask Miao to send troops to resist japan and protect our rivers and mountains.
Due to his illness, he was hospitalized with injuries not long after, and died on January 20, 1938. Before his death, he left a will for the generals of the Sichuan Army: the enemy army would not withdraw from the country for a day, and the Sichuan army would not return to its hometown for one day.
In the eight years of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the contribution of the Sichuan Army was indispensable, accounting for about one-fifth of the country's military strength, and the number of casualties was as high as 640,000!
Other warlords such as the Dian Army, the Xiang Army, the Jin Sui Army, and the Northeast Army also contributed indelible strength in this all-out war of resistance against Japan. Are the warlords in Xikang and Xinjiang just watching? Do you look up to the wall?
At that time, the warlord of Xikang was named Liu Wenhui, who was related to Liu Xiang, the king of Sichuan, and was his uncle. Under the joint efforts of the two, Sichuan was included in the two of them. Later, due to differences between the two, which led to the confrontation of soldiers, Liu Wenhui, who was invincible, eventually lost Ya'an and was driven to Xikang.
What is the courage of the defeated general? Having just arrived in Xikang to gain a foothold, the morale of the army has not yet recovered, let alone how strong the combat strength is.
Moreover, Xikang also needs someone to sit in, on the one hand, to ensure the smooth passage of India to send anti-war materials to China through Tibet; on the other hand, it is also to prevent the British from having a different heart and to give a "backstabbing" to our country, resulting in damage to the national territory.
In addition to safeguarding china's border stability and smooth Passage between Tibet and India, he also donated half a million yuan to the best of his ability. It can be seen that his patriotism is not worse than others.
Sheng Shicai, the "King of Xinjiang", has the same dilemma as Liu Wenhui, but the two of them do not have the same patriotic heart.
The reason why Sheng Shicai was able to ascend to the position of "King of Xinjiang" was due to the support of the Soviet Union. Xinjiang not only has all its daily necessities from the Soviet Union, but also faces the threat of soviet troops at any time.
Sheng Shicai knew this truth very well, so he pretended to be a pro-communist. In this way, although he successfully unified Xinjiang with the help of the Soviet Union, it also caused him to be constrained by the Soviet Union at every turn.
In order to maintain his position, he repeatedly betrayed his national interests and proposed to the Soviet Union to establish another country in Xinjiang and join the Soviet Union. In 1940, it signed the "New Soviet Lease Treaty" with it, handing over all the resources and interests of Xinjiang.
Until the outbreak of the Soviet-German War in 1941, the Soviet Union was at a disadvantage in this war, and was once approached by the German army in Moscow. At this time, the Soviet Union's control over Xinjiang also declined sharply, and at this time, he was not optimistic about the Soviet Union and chose to defect to the Kuomintang.
In order to show his loyalty, he began to kill communists on a large scale, causing some revolutionary martyrs to die tragically under his butcher's knife. One hundred thousand people were arrested and imprisoned, nearly half of whom were killed.
So repeatedly, unpatriotic people are unpopular everywhere. In the voice of everyone's condemnation, he finally withdrew to Taiwan with the Kuomintang, and could only spend the rest of his life in a small alley under the protection of Chiang Kai-shek's troops, leaving behind a name for eternity.
In the face of national difficulties, any bloody person should contribute to this country and the nation, rather than only caring for their own selfish interests and making a big fortune in the "national difficulties." Those who do so will surely be spurned by the people and nailed to the pillar of shame of history.
Qin Juniper of the Song Dynasty, after a thousand years, was still firmly nailed to the pillar of shame and scolded by people; Yue Fei, who was in the same era, has always been praised by people and is the representative of loyalty.
In the face of the Tiger's eye of the Jin Dynasty, Qin Ju sacrificed the interests of the state in exchange for his own livelihood, glory and wealth; in exchange for whitewashing the peace of the country, in exchange for his eternal status. Yue Fei took the national security as his responsibility, led the army to resist the Jin army, and recovered a large number of lost land.
The crisis of the country is not an "opportunity" to gain benefits. Recently, Henan suffered a rare heavy rainstorm, the entire city suffered from floods, and some people were unfortunately killed.
The people of the whole country and all enterprises began to pray for it and do their best to donate money and aid. In everyone's impression, the "Hongxing Erke", "Chery", "Noble Bird" and other enterprises that are poorly managed and have no sense of existence have generously donated money to help Henan tide over the difficulties.
At this time when everyone is united in resisting the flood, the Xi'an Hotel at Zhengzhou High-speed Railway Station not only did not lend a helping hand, but began to make a fortune in the country.
On weekdays, two or three hundred hotels directly increased tenfold, rising to two or three thousand a night. In contrast, other hotels not only did not increase prices, but even had price reductions.
The Hotel was eventually fined 500,000 yuan, which was very gratifying. I believe that with the lessons of previous cars, people will not choose this hotel to stay when they go to Zhengzhou to play and travel in the future.
In contrast, those companies that lent a helping hand at the time of national disaster, such as Hongxing Erke, were warmly sought after by people, opening a round of "wild consumption", and sales rose steadily.
A gentleman loves money and has a way. Whatever benefits we want to obtain, the means to be adopted must be formal and legal.
If, through some opportunistic means, such as when the country is in difficulty, we use scarce materials to make a windfall and raise prices, so as to make it more difficult for the masses to live, we will certainly be severely punished.
On the contrary, if you can do your best and contribute, the feedback given to you by this society will surely benefit you a lot.
