During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Chinese army was poorly equipped, and in the face of the powerful Japanese army, although the soldiers sacrificed their lives and forgot their deaths and fought in blood, they often had poor results and suffered heavy casualties. During the fourteen-year-long War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, a large number of iron-blooded heroes emerged in the Chinese army, and although they were poorly equipped, they dared to fight the Japanese army to the death. Rao Guohua, a famous general in Sichuan, is such a fearless patriotic general.
General Rao Guohua administered the army strictly, commanded well, and supervised his teachers with the main objectives of being brave and loyal, conscientious and bloody, knowing righteousness and shame, and observing etiquette and honesty. Loved by soldiers. Later, he was promoted to battalion commander and regimental commander successively for his military merits, and later Rao was appointed as the commander of the division as a lieutenant general, and was one of Liu Xiang's most trusted officers.
In 1937, the All-Out War of Resistance broke out. At the beginning of the war, the generals of the Sichuan Army took the lead in submitting an application to the Nationalist Government to participate in the war, and under the orders of the Nationalist Government, the generals of the Sichuan Army, wearing straw shoes, left their hometowns, armed with primitive and rudimentary weapons, and with a warm blood, rushed thousands of miles to shanghai and Nanjing to join the war, and General Rao Guohua and his troops were among them. After the fall of Shanghai, the Sichuan army marched to the outer line of Nanjing to block the Japanese army and cover the retreat of the main force of the Nationalist army. The Sichuan army fought against the strong enemy in summer clothes for nearly a week in the cold winter with inferior equipment, delaying the Japanese army's attack on Nanjing, allowing the main Chinese troops and disabled soldiers to smoothly move to the rear of southern Anhui, laying the foundation for a protracted war of resistance.
Later, General Rao Guohua led the 145th Division to be responsible for laying out a defensive line between Anhui and Zhejiang in the strategic boundary monument and Si'an. Rao Guohua had a regimental commander named Liu Ruzhai . One of his relatives was Liu Xiang's deputy, Tang Shizun, deputy commander-in-chief of the group army and commander-in-chief of the former enemy. Because of Tang Shi's obedience to this relative, Liu Ruzhai openly disobeyed Rao Guohua's orders and ordered him to retreat without authorization, and Rao Guohua ordered him to be shot. This incident caused the rout of the whole army. In the end, Rao Guohua had only one battalion of troops left, and was surrounded by japanese troops at the Cross Shop stronghold. After Tang Shizun learned that Liu Ruzhai had been killed, instead of sending reinforcements, he ordered him to counterattack and regain the lost territory.
In the face of the lost position, Rao Guohua was deeply saddened, and he remembered the oath of the generals in Izukawa, who had sworn that they would not drive the invaders out of China for a day, and the Sichuan army would not return to Sichuan for a day. Thinking of Rao Guohua here, he was extremely distressed, and he decided to repay the country with his death. Rao Guohua committed suicide with a fearless spirit at the age of 43. Before dying, he said sadly, "I have humiliated Chinese." ”
All walks of life of the military and the people of the whole country solemnly greeted the national martyrdom, accompanied the capital to lower the flag to half-mast, and the national Hua was extremely mournful and honored, and posthumously presented to the army general. Liu Xiang heard the bad news and was very saddened. Although General Rao Guohua died, everyone in the country was proud of him!
