In many large and small wars between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, the equipment of the Nationalist army has always surpassed that of our army, and even if the equipment gap is very large, they still lose to our army on many occasions.
Su Yu's general Peng Laozong Liu Deng Dajun Xu Xiangqian and others are all well-known figures, of course, there are also many Kuomintang troops, not only are there many, they are all from the class, and the troops they lead are also equipped with high-grade weapons and equipment and full of material conditions.
Just as good as this was pointed out by the old Chiang Kai-shek, and those outstanding generals were also dismissed because of Chiang Kai-shek's suspicion and suspicion, and the Nationalist army that had lost the good general soon collapsed.
I have to say that in terms of employing people, old Jiang and our great people are not a little smaller than that pattern! But as long as he has no doubts about the use of people, and if he does not use people, he will not let himself lose so thoroughly, and among the many generals who were deposed by Chiang Kai-shek, these three are the most regrettable.
01
The first to bear the brunt was Sun Liren, who could be regarded as the most outstanding general in the Kuomintang group army.
Sun Liren
Sun Liren is a down-to-earth scholar, his father is a late Qing Dynasty family also has some foundation for him to learn, innate conditions plus his own efforts, in the thousands of people to win the first admission to the famous school Tsinghua, for him is a piece of cake.
He studied in tsinghua in the department of civil engineering, because at that time, the blood of serving the country with martial arts had not yet begun to boil, and after graduation, he went to the United States at public expense to nibble foreign bread, and Sun Liren, who gradually realized the national crisis outside, began to study military, and was also admitted to the "Virginia Military Academy of the United States" known as the Southern West Point, and began a new round of study. At this school, he was not only able to learn a lot of military theory, but also to meet more famous people.
Sun Liren returned to China after completing his studies to start his career as a horseman, as an excellent student, he did not have a smooth road at the beginning, although he was also a college graduate, because he had not experienced the Huangpu department, he was often excluded, but song Ziwen, the god of wealth, favored him.
Years of edification have given Sun Liren a unique insight into the military aspect, for the training of soldiers attach great importance to, he studied and trained the army, will be in the United States to learn and Chinese martial arts integration, to create a set of their own unique training system and methods, because of the difference with other national armies, so known as Sun's exercises.
After the outbreak of the All-out War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression in 37 years, Sun Liren rushed to the Songhu battlefield with the Taxation Police Corps, and made great achievements in intercepting the Japanese army's rubber boat crossing the river seven times on the Suzhou River, although he successfully prevented the Japanese army from crossing the river, but Sun Liren was unfortunately injured in the battle and fell into a coma, and Sun Liren, who was in a coma for three days and nights, was arranged by Song Ziwen to be sent to the Hong Kong Hospital for recuperation, and when he was healed, he came back to reorganize the army without stopping, and this unit is known as the first army under the heavens - the Kuomintang 38th Army.
In December 1941, Sun Liren and the 38th Army began to enter Burma to fight, and under his command, more than 1,000 people of the 113th Regiment of the 38th Army won the fabulous Ren'an Qiang Victory! It also successfully rescued the British army many times, and later reorganized into a new army when the garrison was repaired in India, and it defeated the elite 18th Division of the Japanese Army with the strength of an advance regiment, and killed more than 30,000 Japanese troops in front and back battles, which also gave this unit the reputation of "Jungle Fox".
Sun Liren, who had played an international prestige, was not bad in the liberation battlefield, and when he fought against Lin Shuai, he did not flee without fighting like other nationalist troops, but he was able to hand over Lin Shuai back and forth, but in the course of the later operations, Sun Li and Du Yuming's operational philosophy clashed, and Liao Yaoxiang also looked at each other and were transferred to the rear by Old Jiang.
He thought that he would be able to enjoy his old age peacefully far from the battlefield, but after winning a great battle, he was put on the hat of rebellion, and after Chiang Kai-shek fled to Taiwan, his suspicions became more and more serious, and it was not pleasing to see anyone, and Sun Liren, who had always been close to the Americans, became a thorn in his eye.
In mid-June 1955, Sun Liren was imprisoned in Taichung, which was 33 years, and a generation of famous generals spent 33 years in prison, which was really lamentable.
02
The second is Xue Yue, the "god of anti-Japanese war", who was a victorious general in the face of anti-Japanese resistance, but he was willing to be a "general who always lost" in the civil war.
Xue Yue
Born in Guangdong, Xue Yue was admitted to the Army Officers' Primary School of the Whampoa Military Academy at the age of 11, and then to the Baoding Army Officer School, and in 1918 he joined the Kuomintang with Mr. Sun, and on the anti-Japanese battlefield, Xue Yue's performance was as praised as ever, and his original "Heavenly Furnace Formation Method" annihilated more than 100,000 Japanese troops in the Battle of Songhu and the Battle of Changsha.
Especially in the Battle of Changsha, in the face of hundreds of thousands of well-equipped Japanese troops, and countless ironclad cannons three-way encirclement, Xue Yue did not flinch but bravely rushed up, using that set of Heavenly Furnace Formation, he scattered his troops in various outlets, in the non-stop guerrilla ambush flank to do war, exhausted the patience of the enemy, thus introducing the Japanese army into his own decisive battle area annihilated in one fell swoop, hundreds of thousands of enemy troops were annihilated, so that Xue Yue's reputation became the "Changsha Tiger" in the Japanese army!
Xue Yue, who wore the title of God of War, was not reused by Lao Jiang, in the great battle of 2 million people between China and Japan, many soldiers were sacrificed, Xue Yue would often take the generals to mourn them, and after a long time they became loyal to the national regiment, this inconspicuous little thing in the eyes of Old Jiang, but became a small group in private, and the civil war after that made the old Jiang general Xue Yue suspicious completely.
Chinese not to fight Chinese is the bottom line that Xue Yue insisted on, but this also made Old Jiang begin to be suspicious and dissatisfied with Xue Yue, and after slowly emptying Xue Yue's strength, Old Jiang was still not at ease, and Xue Yue, who was about to collapse at hainan island, was directly occupied by Old Jiang, and After Chiang Kai-shek overwitted his rights, he was worried about Xue Yue and Bai Chongxi's contacts, so he searched Xue Yue's residence in the name of "colluding with the third force", and later attacked him in Guangdong with "unknown use of large amounts of public funds", and repeated suppression made Xue Yue slowly depressed.
In his later years, Xue Yue has been idle studying at home, occasionally hunting, after chiang kai-shek's death he has also been living in Taiwan, a sea away from his hometown is close at hand but he can not go back, when he died of illness in Taiwan at the age of 102, this good boy who once aspired to serve the country like Yue Fei will eventually be polished.
03
The third is Bai Chongxi, a generation of military experts.
Bai Chongxi
Compared with the previous two Bai Chongxi, everyone will hear a little more about it, resourceful and flexible, excellent military ability and unique strategic vision, he is considered to be the top one among the generals of the national army.
On the battlefield of the Anti-Japanese War, the young and vigorous Bai Chongxi and his good friend Li Zongren took the initiative to ask Miao to go into battle to kill the enemy, at that time the gap between China and Japan was a bit large, but they were not accustomed to the Japanese Kou doing evil in our territory, so Taierzhuang won the victory! The myth of the japanese army's undefeated has also been shattered.
Bai Chongxi's battle also made Lao Jiang see the possibility of China's resistance to Japan, he began to gather troops to resist the Japanese army head-on, Bai Chongxi also lived up to his expectations, in command of the Battle of Wuhan and the Great Victory of Kunlun Pass, with his own strength to crush the enemy's attack, Bai Chongxi, who had super combat ability, made the Japanese army panic.
The firm anti-war stance of the Gui troops and their outstanding performance also won them a relatively high reputation within the Nationalist army, but why didn't such a military genius old Chiang not reuse it?
There are certainly reasons for his birth; the post of president of Chiang Kai-shek's Whampoa Military Academy was not in vain; most of his troops were from the Whampoa Military Academy, Bai Chongxi was not, he and Xue Yue were all from the Baoding Military Academy, and Bai Chongxi was still the main representative of the Warlords of the Gui Clan, and old Chiang Kai-shek always had a knot in his heart.
At the beginning, Bai Chongxi had his own army and did not have any conflicts with Lao Jiang, so the two still made peace, and after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the storm came, Li Zongren ran for vice president, and Old Jiang's dissatisfaction with the Gui clan began to increase.
A month later, Chiang Kai-shek dismissed Bai Chongxi from the post of defense minister under the pretext of reorganization, and transferred him to Wuhan as commander-in-chief, in order to prevent Bai Chongxi from supporting the army and respecting himself, he also divided the army in the Huanghuai Plain into two groups, and the Xuzhou branch was trusted to pinpoint Bai Chongxi's military power.
In addition to the restraint of military power, he also arranged for Cheng Qian to go to Changsha to keep an eye on Bai Chongxi, and it can be said that Bai Chongxi's every move was under the surveillance of the Yan clan troops, and then in the Liberation War, in order to resist the offensive of our army, Chiang Kai-shek returned Huang Huai's military power to Bai Chongxi, Bai Chongxi did not do it, he knew that Lao Jiang was using him.
The defeat in the Huaihai battlefield has determined that he will not be able to help if he joins again, so he turned his head and began to negotiate with Liu Bocheng's army, but Chiang Kai-shek asked Bai Chongxi to transfer troops to support Xuzhou regardless of the severity, Bai Chongxi refused, the road from Wuhan to Xuzhou was long and slow, and if he was not careful, his troops were difficult to protect, and then the old Chiang Kai-shek still wanted to transfer troops, Bai Chongxi directly said that Wuhan is a strategic point, first protect Wuhan! If Wuhan loses Nanjing, it will not be able to save.
Chiang Kai-shek was very angry at Bai Chongxi's refusal again and again! Until the old Jiang fled to Taiwan, he still held a grudge against Bai Chongxi, he thought that Bai Chongxi's lack of timely support would lead to a serious injury to his concubine, and the stingy old Jiang also gave Bai Chongxi an idle post, but Li Zongren and his wife returned to China to make old Jiang kill, he wanted to borrow Bai Chongxi to beat Li Zongren, so he sent Mao Renfeng to assassinate Bai Chongxi, but the old man had a big life, escaped many times, and died of a heart attack in 1996.
None of the three major generals of the Kuomintang who were good at war and loyal were all buried in the suspicion of Old Chiang Kai-shek again and again, and this also doomed Old Chiang Kai-shek to defeat!
