All the seemingly one-step ascension to the heavens actually comes from the accumulation of secrets, which may be your struggle, your efforts, or your well-known virtues. Today I want to tell you the story of such a kind-hearted little soldier who only covered a general who was so tired that he fell asleep in a chair and his fate was changed.
In the late Qing Dynasty, the forcible knocking of the great powers led to the collapse of the qing empire's rule, accelerating the decline of the Manchu Qing government, but the fierce wars and humiliating terms not only made the Qing government lose face, but also made the people's lives miserable, and the Shenzhou mainland was full of devastation.
In the confrontation with foreign powers, the Sino-Japanese War should be regarded as the most famous war, in this naval battle, the Qing Dynasty was defeated miserably, how should Cixi resist the invasion of foreign enemies by the garden built by the water division and military expenses? However, although the Beiyang Marine Division was completely destroyed, there were many outstanding generals who shined in this war, such as one of the admirals, Sa Zhenbing.
Sa Zhenbing was a famous admiral of the Chinese Navy and the only navy man to witness the destruction of the Beiyang Marine Division to the victory of the War of Resistance. Sa Zhenbing's family is somewhat complicated, he was originally a Fuzhou Semu people Sa family, and then because of the assistance of the Yuan Dynasty ancestors have meritorious service was given the surname of Sa, after the Ming Dynasty began to "from the Han customs, The Fu called the clan".
We all know that the relationship between the Qing court and Mongolia is very good, when the Ming Dynasty was first fought, with the help of a lot of Mongolian iron horsepower, so as a descendant of the nobles of the Yuan Dynasty, the Sa family was still relatively strong in the Qing Dynasty, so Sa Zhenbing had the honor of entering the Beiyang Naval Academy at the age of eleven and became an excellent naval officer.
During the Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese War, the Main Fighting Force of the Qing Dynasty, the Beiyang Marine Division, was attacked by the Japanese army in Weihaiwei due to equipment and combat strength, so the entire army was destroyed, and Sa Zhenbing fought with the Japanese army for eleven days while guarding the fort, but the helpless general situation had gone, and the defeat could not be recovered, so Sa Zhenbing decided to commit suicide by taking poison like the chief Ding Ruchang and others.
However, because Sa Zhenbing was relatively young at that time, his colleagues around him advised him not to die and to leave a seed of hope for the Chinese navy, sa Zhenbing decided to survive after the ideological struggle of Youqian, and made a wish to cultivate more naval talents for the motherland.
After the end of the Sino-Japanese War, due to the defeat of the Qing government, the Qing court, who was ashamed and angry, did not care about the root cause, even the head of the Beiyang Marine Division, Li Hongzhang, who had held the weight for 25 years, was removed, not to mention the other admirals of the navy, Sa Zhenbing was one of them. After being dismissed from the Navy, Sa Zhenbing ran to become a private school teacher, waiting for the opportunity to resume.
Although the Qing Navy was defeated, the Qing Dynasty decided to rebuild the Navy, and due to the rarity of talent, Sa Zhenbing was reappointed as a warship pipe belt and became a general again. In order to cultivate more talents and to comfort the souls of the soldiers who died in the Sino-Japanese War, Sa Zhenbing decided to establish the Yantai Navy in Yantai.
Sa Zhenbing never specializes in it, treats all the students who come to study equally, teaches each other, and never cares about their origins, so it is very loved by the students. One day, Sa Zhenbing fell asleep in a chair on the warship due to overwork, but when he woke up, he found that he had a quilt on his body.
Sa Zhenbing also thought that the relatives around him covered himself, and as a result, he found that it was not the relatives who did it, which aroused Sa Zhenbing's curiosity, and after sending people to investigate, he found that the person who covered himself with a quilt was called Chen Zhaohan, just a most ordinary soldier.
Chen Zhaohan was originally a peasant man, and his education level was very low, but he was loyal and honest, and loved to learn, and he had a warm heart, he was grateful to Sa Zhenbing for teaching him, so he saw that General Sa was tired and fell asleep, and painfully hugged the bed quilt to cover him.
Such a small thing, which seemed very insignificant to him, attracted Sa Zhenbing's attention to him, and slowly Sa Zhenbing discovered that Chen Zhaohan was a rare talent, so he sponsored Chen Zhaohan to study in Shanghai, and gave his daughter Xu to Chen Zhaohan, which became a good story at that time.
Later, Chen Zhaohan began to fight for the navy cause of the motherland with Sa Zhenbing, and on the eve of Sa Zhenbing's death, he witnessed the news of the Liberation Army's liberation of Hancheng, and at that time he was very emotional, and wrote a poem with a large stroke of his pen to express his pride and ambition: "Fifty-seven years is like a dream, the whole country has fallen to Seoul, the dragon swims in shallow water, do not give up, and finally have an eyebrow and a breath." ”
