Just as the so-called "long live the thousand autumns, who knows the glory and humiliation", after thousands of years, who will think about the gains and losses of others? However, in real life, there are many people who will be blinded by the random flowers in front of them, and in the pursuit of the morality of life, they will lose themselves and become a slave to money and power.
Especially in the chaotic world, such people are emerging in an endless stream, just like Tian Songyao, who was once the governor of the Shaanxi Border Region, who made the mistake of asking for merit and rewarding on the so-called road of promotion.
For chiang kai-shek's "reward," he casually reported the name of a Red Army general, but was scolded by Chiang Kai-shek for a dog's bloody head.
Since then, the road to promotion has been cut off
In March 1932, just as the red army and the Sichuan army were in full swing in battle, and the Kuomintang side frequently reported good news, the atmosphere in the office of the "Suppression General" in Sichuan and Shaanxi was particularly serious and tense.
Chiang Kai-shek, who was the leader, scolded Tian Songyao, who had just entered the office, and looking at the officer in front of him who was so scolded by himself that he could not return his red face, Chiang Kai-shek felt indescribably tired.
"In order to reward you are free to lie about military information?" Don't you know that this is going to court-martial? Chiang Kai-shek drank loudly, and at this time he was a little annoyed and angry, because this Tian Songyao in front of him was pulled out by himself, and not long ago he praised this person in front of other Kuomintang generals.
It turned out that this general named Tian Songyao was the commander of the 29th Army of the Sichuan Army at that time, but this person had no real talent in the military and was accustomed to sneaking and patting horses.
The lure of Xu Xiangqian, the commander of our army, entered the encirclement circle step by step, but the early stage gave him the illusion of victory one after another.
In order to ask Chiang Kai-shek for his meritorious deeds and reward him for praising the great achievements of the war, and hearing the report from his subordinates, the Red Army used the name of a sacrificed Red Army general as the name of the roadway to boost morale, and Tian Songyao directly reported this person to Chiang Kai-shek as his "killing of the Red Army general" battle results, but chiang kai-shek found something strange after receiving the telegram.
It turned out that this Red Army general was none other than Yun Daiying, who had been personally approved by Chiang Kai-shek and sacrificed as early as 1931.
Now that he has been "resurrected" again and killed by Tian Songyao, either there were communist agents inside that year, or Tian Songyao lied about military information.
Therefore, Chiang Kai-shek immediately asked Tian Songyao to report the detailed process of the killed Red Army general Waving Daiying, and asked Tian Songyao to explain how the identity of The Wave Wasing was determined.
Poor Tian Songyao, a straw bag, how to know that he was casual, directly cut off his future promotion path in the Kuomintang, but knowing his military career, it was only a matter of time before he came to this step.
There is no promotion of real materials
Tian Songyao was one of the few Kuomintang generals who did not graduate from the Whampoa Military Academy and was not a member of Chiang Kai-shek's concubines, but was favored by Chiang Kai-shek.
Tian Songyao, who was born in Sichuan in 1888, also had a heart to serve the country when he was young, and in 1910 he joined the League, during which time he became acquainted with Chiang Kai-shek.
Tian Songyao used to watch people cook, and he often flattered Chiang Kai-shek, a red man within the Kuomintang, because Chiang Kai-shek was one year older than him, and he often called Chiang Kai-shek in the name of "elder brother".
From this point, it can also be seen that although his ability is not very prominent, he can also be regarded as a capable person in interpersonal relationship handling.
In 1912, Tian Songyao returned to Sichuan and served as a battalion commander in the Second Division of the Sichuan Army, and the internal strife in the Sichuan Army at that time was very chaotic, but Tian Songyao was confused inside.
In May 1926, at this time, he had become the military deputy of Sichuan and the envoy of tun reclamation in northwest Sichuan, and Tian Songyao's traces also reached Chiang Kai-shek's ears, and Chiang Kai-shek also began to look at this old brother of Sichuan, and directly appointed Tian Songyao as the commander of the 29th Army of the Sichuan Army.
In the "April 12 coup" launched by Chiang Kai-shek, Tian Songyao contacted a large number of Sichuan army generals to support the Nanjing government in order to support this "old brother", which also left a "good" impression on Chiang Kai-shek.
In addition, Tian Songyao used to do "copywriting" in military reports, often writing some small battles as big wars, and exaggerating the results of the battle; anyway, Chiang Kai-shek's "heavenly emperor is far away," and Tian Songyao's image in Chiang Kai-shek is very good.
Chiang Kai-shek also praised this person many times among the Kuomintang forces on all sides, so after discovering Tian Songyao's true face, he was ashamed and angry and scolded him with a bloody head.
In his later years, he looked down on everything
However, the consequences that Tian Songyao had to bear were not second only to being disliked by Chiang Kai-shek, and when he returned to the battlefield, he soon found that he had been tricked by our army.
In May 1933, his troops were damaged by one-third, not only that, Tongjiang, Nanjiang, and Bazhong, which had been "taken" from the Red Army, were also captured by the Red Army again, and even Cangxi, Guangyuan, Yilong, Wanyuan and other places were also developed into revolutionary base areas.
Although in the following two years, Tian Songyao was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the second road of the Sichuan "Suppression General", but at this time he was completely a commander-in-chief without real power, and he was eventually dismissed from his post in April 1935 for poor combat, and he lived in seclusion in Chengdu thereafter.
Perhaps it was his years of military and political career that made him finally look down on fame and fortune, and after that, Tian Songyao began to pay attention to education and gradually moved away from the internal struggles of the Kuomintang.
He has provided a large amount of funds for Chengdu Shude Middle School, Longquanyi Middle School and Yintang Middle School and served as the chairman of the board, and his mood has changed in the face of energetic students, and he has also seen the true face of the Kuomintang.
Later, when Gu Zhutong sent him four plane tickets to Taiwan, he also directly refused, and on December 9, 1949, he, who understood the situation, accompanied Deng Xihou and Pan Wenhua to the whole country to revolt in Peng County, Sichuan.
On October 25, 1975, Tian Songyao, who lived in Chengdu, died of illness at the age of 87.
brief summary:
When he was young, Tian Songyao was a person who attached great importance to gains and losses, so he would do his best to sneak around the powerful, and after the ups and downs of life, he truly understood where the meaning of life was.
Just as the so-called gains must be lost, there must be gains, if too calculated gains and losses, how can life be happy and comfortable, free and free?
