In the camp of the National Army, there is such a general, he was originally a political work cadre, and later offered to serve in the combat troops, and later in his military career, he experienced danger five times, but in the end he successfully turned the danger into a disaster, which can be called the first "lucky general" of the National Army, who is this person? How did he escape from danger again and again?
This person's name is He Zhuben, he is also a student of the Whampoa Military Academy, and later entered the Army University for further study, with these two "golden characters" signboard, he was assigned to the technical unit as a second lieutenant of the communications regiment after graduation, and for the next nine years, he has been the commander of the independent second battalion major. Among the technical troops, because the battle losses were relatively small, He Zhuben's promotion speed was relatively fast, but he still thought that he should go to the battlefield to train, so he proposed to his superiors to be transferred to the field troops, and the superiors agreed to his application, and transferred him to the Eighth Army as the chief of the first section of the staff office, but what disappointed He Zhuben was that although he went to the field troops, his superiors saw that he was a technical background, and refused to let him lead the troops to fight, and always let him serve as a staff officer. He Zhuben was slowly worn out of his will, so he gradually became depressed, and even committed a murder case, and was sentenced to five years in prison.
However, Li Yutang, who was then the commander of the Tenth Army, thought he was a talent, so he asked his superiors to transfer him to the Tenth Army as the acting chief of staff of the division, and allowed him to "make meritorious contributions to the crime." Since then, He Zhuben has really begun to "open and hang" the general life. During the Third Battle of Changsha, He Zhuben led the 10th Division to repel the Japanese army south of Changsha City, and was immediately corrected after the war and served as the chief of staff of the 10th Division. In 1943, He Zhuben led the Tenth Division to participate in the Battle of Changde, in the battle, the division commander was killed and the deputy division commander was seriously injured, so He Zhuben single-handedly picked the beam for the first time, led the Tenth Division to break through the three blockade lines of the Japanese army in a row, and successfully broke through. This was also the first dangerous situation that He Zhuben encountered in the battle, after which He Zhuben's military ability was recognized by his superiors and he became the deputy commander of the Tenth Division.
In 1944, during the Defense of Hengyang, Fang Xianjue, commander of the Tenth Army, ordered the battle to be stopped, and He Zhuben also became a prisoner, and soon Afterefang Xianjue defected to the Japanese and became the commander of the "Xianhe Army", He Zhuben was not willing to become a traitor, so he and Zeng Jing, the commander of the Eighteenth Regiment, took advantage of the opportunity of purchasing food and escaped from the prisoner of war camp. After that, He Zhuben returned to the rebuilt Tenth Army Headquarters and served as the chief of staff of the Tenth Army, which was also his second encounter. During the Liberation War, He Zhuben was the commander of the Third Brigade of the Reorganized Third Division, he led the participation in the Battle of Dingtao, but was unexpectedly surrounded by the People's Liberation Army, the battle lasted for three days, but the reinforcements of the Nationalist army did not come for a long time, at that time, the Third Division headquarters had been put on the side of the Plaster, but He Zhuben led the remnants of the Third Brigade to break through and escape from the dangerous situation for the third time.
At the end of 1948, He Zhuben served as the commander of the Forty-ninth Division, and in the Battle of Huaihai, the Forty-ninth Division was surrounded by Huaye's army in Luoji, but fortunately, the commander of the Eighteenth Army, Yang Botao, sent troops to support and successfully repelled the People's Liberation Army, after which Yang Botao ordered him to lead the Forty-ninth Division to the west of Guzhen to reconnoiter the enemy situation, and as a result, as soon as he left on the front foot, the Rear Foot Huaye Army surrounded the Twelve Corps in Shuangduiji, and at that time, except for He Zhuben's Forty-ninth Division, the entire Twelfth Corps was almost completely destroyed. Both the corps commander and the tenth army commander Yang Botao were taken prisoner. This is also the fourth time that He Zhuben has escaped from danger.
In 1949, He Zhuben was promoted to chief of staff of the headquarters of the First Corps, followed the troops to Guangxi, the People's Liberation Army caught up, the First Corps directly collapsed, He Zhuben led the remnants of the army to the Sino-Vietnamese border, but because France controlled Vietnam at that time, they were not easy to enter directly, so they sent people to negotiate with the French side, and finally signed the "False Road Agreement" with the French side, which was a successful escape. However, when He Zhuben and others entered Vietnam, the French side rebelled, surrendered all of Ho's troops, and sent Ho Zhuben to Phu Quoc Island for custody, and it was not until 1953 that He Zhuben successfully returned to Taiwan, ending four years of life as a prisoner of war.
After that, He Zhuben successively served as the deputy commander of the Ninth Army, the deputy commander of the Eighth Army, etc. In 1966, He Zhuben officially retired, and in 1995, the first "Fu General" of the Nationalist Army died of illness in Taipei, ending a legendary life.
