Understand the past history, know that today's peaceful life is based on countless ancestors to work hard, it is they who do not hesitate to sacrifice their lives, but also to drive out the Japanese devils, they are heroes, worthy of our admiration and memory, like Zhang Zizhong, Yang Jingyu, Zhao Yiman, Liu Hulan, etc. are more familiar heroes, but some war heroes are not well known to people, such as Liu Xiang, a warlord general who made great contributions to the War of Resistance Against Japan.
At that time, after winning the great victory at Pingxingguan, the morale of our army rose a lot, and as soon as we won the war, we became famous and made the enemy fearful. But when the Eighth Route Army needed support, no warlords were willing to come, which was really chilling. During the Northern Expedition, due to the weakening of the warlords' power, many warlords had their own selfish intentions and did not want to rush into battle, but one of them still rushed to the front line to fight the Japanese army to the end, and he was Liu Xiang.
In the face of the Japanese invasion, Liu Xiang took the initiative to ask for orders to fight, which was supported by many soldiers, expressing their willingness to go with him to fight the Japanese army.
At that time, our army had not yet completely repaired itself, and had to start a fierce battle immediately, and the situation was very unfavorable to our army, but at the most critical moment, Liu Xiang, who was already wounded in battle, stood up and actively took the lead to face the Japanese army, and later died because he was seriously injured in the war and did not heal in the hospital for a long time, and his army made a great contribution to the War of Resistance Against Japan with his mission in mind.
In the War of Resistance Against Japan, there were two warlords with a large number of troops and equipped with advanced weapons and ammunition, who did not send troops to resist the war in the face of the crazy invasion of the Japanese army, which formed a sharp contrast with Liu Xiang.
One of them is Liu Wenhui of Xikang, Xikang's geographical location is very superior, it is the primary place to enter Tibet, and the sichuan, Tibet and other places bordering it can be easily taken, so Xikang has become an important target of the Japanese army, but Liu Wenhui has no sense of national crisis, refuses to send troops to reinforce the front line, and also closes the gate of Xikang and does not allow the army to enter, which can be called shameless.
Later, under the pressure of public opinion, Liu Wenhui donated 500,000 yuan of ocean to the anti-Japanese troops, which was a considerable amount, but for him, this money was insignificant. Although Liu Wenhui has made some contributions to the country, he cannot withstand the broken things he did when he was a warlord, and he is still spurned by people.
The other is the prosperous talent of Xinjiang, his road to joining the army is extremely difficult, so he cherished it very much when he became a warlord, so he had a lot of small calculations in his heart, during the War of Resistance, he found an excuse to refuse additional troop assistance, he knew very well that whether the Japanese army occupied the northeast region or not, it had nothing to do with his own survival, and later he also took the Soviet Union, let the Soviet Union provide arms for it, trying to get local control as soon as possible, but finally broke up with the Soviet Union, angry he also mutilated a large number of innocent compatriots.
From the above, it can be seen that not all people can sacrifice their own interests for the sake of national righteousness, let alone give their lives, selfish people exist, but more people still choose to shoulder heavy burdens, they are undoubtedly the greatest and worthy of admiration.
