"The remnants of the remnants are very difficult, and who is generous with the Scythians. Stuffed with autumn winds and sad horses, the sunset of Shenzhou wept and mourned. In modern times, the rising Japan has been eyeing the central plains powers across the sea, but the Republic of China, which is in the midst of warlord chaos, is unaware of this. When the Japanese army stepped on the land of China, some Chinese soldiers with the mission of defending their families and defending the country were determined to defend the motherland with death
After more than ten years of resisting the Japanese Kou, he finally ushered in a great victory in the cause of resisting Japan, and the founding general we are talking about today has a full twelve years of anti-Japanese career, and this outstanding anti-Japanese general is General Dong Qiwu.
Abandoning his writings and joining the army
Shanxi Hejin, mountains and rivers, special geographical form, as early as the Warring States period, here is the military stronghold of the State of Wei. This small city in Shanxi with a history of more than 2,000 years is Dong Qiwu's hometown.
Dong Qiwu's family was not rich when he was young, and when he encountered the years of military famine, the whole family had problems eating, but fortunately, he had an uncle who was a private schoolman, who not only had the opportunity to study, but also received a systematic Confucian education.
Because of his poor family situation, Dong Qiwu could not continue his studies, but he was diligent and studious, and he never gave up studying, and since he paid, he would be rewarded. At the age of 19, yan Xishan, in order to expand his military strength, founded bin ye middle school in Taiyuan to train grass-roots officers.
Hearing this news, Dong Qiwu rushed to Taiyuan and, with his knowledge and physical fitness, successfully passed the examination, and was also the best score of all the candidates.
Initially applying for Bin Ye Middle School, Dong Qiwu just wanted to find a free reading opportunity, but after enrolling, his interest in the military became more and more intense, military training, theoretical study he was very involved, in the school of various subjects in the top of the grades, in the future to join the Jin Army will certainly have a role.
However, when he was about to graduate, Dong Qiwu clashed with an officer of the Overseer's Palace, and under the pressure of the other side, the principal had to expel him in pain, and Dong Qiwu found another way.
Dong Qiwu later joined the National Revolutionary Army and also participated in the Northern Expedition, but after the "confluence of Ninghan and Han", these non-concubine officers were ostracized by Lao Jiang, and at that time, when he heard that Fu Zuoyi, who was serving as a garrison commander in Tianjin, was recruiting troops and horses to expand his troops, Dong Qiwu and several officers with good relations resigned from the army and went north together to join Fu Zuoyi.
A famous anti-Japanese general with great merit
At first, Dong Qiwu was only a captain and staff officer, and once Fu Zuoyi overheard Dong Qiwu's Shanxi accent and talked with him, and the two of them talked about major military events from shanxi stories, and after talking freely, Fu Zuoyi greatly appreciated Dong Qiwu's insights and knowledge, and decided that this person would have great achievements in the future, not only promoting him to major staff officer, but also later transferring him to the front troops to give him the opportunity to display his talents.
Just when Dong Qiwu's years of learning were revealed, the Japanese army also stepped up the pace of invading China, and after the "918" incident, the northeast thousand miles of fertile fields fell into the hands of the Japanese army, and tens of millions of compatriots began to suffer enslavement and humiliation by the Japanese army. When the country was in trouble, Dong Qiwu's blood was aroused, and he asked Fu Zuoyi to go north to resist japan.
A warm-blooded boy full of patriotic feelings will eventually have the opportunity to kill the enemy and repay the country. In 1933, Dong Qiwu participated in the Great Wall War of Resistance, folded the Japanese army at the foot of the Great Wall, joined the army for many years, and finally contributed to the national righteousness and the defense of the motherland's territory.
Three years later, for the sake of their own selfish desires, the Scum of the Nation colluded with Japanese imperialism in a vain attempt to do the ugly thing of sealing the territory and splitting the land. At the critical moment, Dong Qiwu led his army in the name of Fu Zuoyi in a bloody battle with the Japanese puppet army, kicked off the prelude to the Suiyuan War of Resistance, and then annihilated tens of thousands of enemies at the Lark Temple, smashing the conspiracy of the King of Germany in one fell swoop, and Dong Qiwu, who returned home victorious, became famous in the first battle, became famous and was known as an "anti-Japanese national hero".
After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Dong Qiwu once again led the army to the anti-Japanese front, born and died for the cause of anti-Japanese resistance, bravely killed the enemy, from the Great Wall War of Resistance to the victory of the War of Resistance, Dong Qiwu had a total of 12 years of anti-Japanese career, worthy of the anti-Japanese national hero.
As a meritorious anti-Japanese general, Dong Qiwu was awarded the rank of general by the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government.
Fast forward to 1949, Dong Qiwu followed the 21-year-old leader Fu Zuoyi and announced the peaceful liberation of Peiping. As the highest official in the Suiyuan region, Dong Qiwu is also considering the future direction of development. He arrived in Beiping by plane and found Fu Zuoyi to inquire about the direction of suiyuan's political situation.
The old leader said to him with a heavy heart: "We must keep up with the trend of history, and you should closely follow and embark on the road of the people." After hearing this, Dong Qiwu did not hesitate in the slightest, flew back to Suiyuan and had been preparing for the Suiyuan uprising, and on September 19, after careful arrangements, Dong Qiwu overcame all difficulties, broke through all obstacles, led Suiyuan's 100,000-strong army to declare the uprising, and joined the embrace of the people from then on.
In 1955, Dong Qiwu, who made great contributions to the peaceful reunification of the motherland and the great anti-Japanese cause, was awarded the rank of general.
Although Elder Dong was an uprising general of the Nationalist Army, his lifelong merits were appreciated by the leaders of our party, and after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Elder Dong was also elected vice chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference in his later years and became a leader at the deputy state level.
epilogue
Elder Dong was half a life soldier and achieved brilliant achievements in his later years, but he was very strict in discipline of his children. In fact, in recent years, the sons and daughters have also had the opportunity to improve, but they have all been stopped by their fathers, according to their son Dong Duxiang: "We used to be very ignorant of our father's approach, he said to us, 'Our family is from a poor family, you are the common people, I am very happy, because you can serve the people wherever you go.' ’”
None of Dong's children were officials, but the husband of his granddaughter Li Jie was a vice-state leader, and he was the Tenth Panchen Lama of Tibet, Choekyi Gyaltsen. The age difference between the two is twenty years, but because of a chance encounter, they fell in love at first sight when they first met, which made a good story.
On March 3, 1989, Dong Lao died of illness in Beijing at the age of 90.
