A gentle gust of wind awakens the body that has been sleeping for a thousand years; a gentle gust of wind blows away the mysterious veil of history. Standing on the shoulders of time, I talk to history.
Erqin Erlin was the most popular and most appealing and influential actor of the 1970s: Qin Han, Qin Xianglin, Lin Fengjiao, and Lin Qingxia. Among them, Qin Han's acting career has lasted for nearly half a century, and he has starred in hundreds of movies and nearly thirty TV series. Just at the beginning of this year, the "New World" he starred in was broadcast, and it is said that this old drama bone can be regarded as a household name. But what is less known is that Qin Han is actually not surnamed Qin, and his real name is Sun Xiangzhong.
Today, without talking about him, let's talk about his father Sun Yuanliang, and Sun Xiangzhong's father was also a figure in the chaotic world of the Republic of China. However, his father was controversial, some people said that he was a hero of the anti-Japanese resistance, and some people said that he was a general who escaped. Sun Yuanliang was born in 1904, his father Sun Tingrong was a Zhi County in the late Qing Dynasty, and he gave birth to this son at the age of 67. Therefore, when he was young, his father had died, but he followed his father's instructions, studied diligently, and achieved excellent results.
In the early years, he taught at a private school in his hometown, but in that chaotic world, more people chose to throw in the pen, and so did Sun Yuanliang. In 1924, he was admitted to the first phase of the Whampoa Military Academy, and the recommended person was Li Dazhao. At the opening ceremony, he greeted Sun Yat-sen as an honor guard, and because of his good grades and good looks, Sun Yuanliang was appreciated by Mr. Jiang. Not long after graduation, chen jiongming was accompanied by the team, and the team that was later reviled by the world was actually very popular at the beginning.
Compared with the warlords' troops, they were orderly, and the teachers and students of Huangpu often showed a fearless spirit. Therefore, every time they go to a place, the local people will set off firecrackers and take the initiative to comfort the brown sugar water. After the end of the war, before the Northern Expedition, the 23-year-old Sun Yuanliang had become the regimental commander and the first division of the First Army of Mr. Jiang's concubine. However, due to a mistake in judgment, he was quickly executed by acting division commander Wang Jun when he retreated too early, but the fault was not in him, but in Wang Jun himself.
However, at that time, it was not easy to change senior personnel, and Mr. Jiang could only indicate that he would definitely punish Sun Yuanliang, which was actually a bluff. He sent Sun Yuanliang to study at the Japanese Army Non-Commissioned Officer Academy, and after returning to China in 1928, he rose to the next level, and was promoted to the commander of the 1st Brigade of the 1st Division in 1931. On January 28, 1932, the Japanese army attacked Shanghai, and the 19th Army rose up to resist. Zhang Zhizhong asked for orders, and on February 15, Sun Yuanliang arrived in Shanghai.
In the ensuing Battle of the Temple, he led people to fight in blood and finally won the victory. This was followed by the Second Battle of Songhu, on August 11, 1937, Mr. Jiang ordered Zhang Zhizhong to go to Shanghai, and Sun Yuanliang arrived in Zhenru on the 12th. When he learned that the Japanese army was already heading east of Hudong, he ordered the 262nd Brigade to occupy the line of the North Railway Station - Baoshan Road - Baziqiao - Jiangwan Road without orders. His immediate decision had a decisive impact on the entire Songhu situation later, thanks to the fact that he did not hesitate for a moment.
However, after the war, for various reasons, it turned into a rout, and his retreat is actually difficult to say. Sun Yuanliang thought of not making fearless sacrifices, so he withdrew the army, which led Xie Jinyuan to lead the "eight hundred strong men" to guard the Sihang warehouse alone. However, only his retreat was seen, and in fact Sun Yuanliang and the 88th Division had been fighting the Japanese army for two and a half months from August 13 to October 31. Because he always held on, the Japanese army hated and scolded him as the most hateful enemy in Zhabei.
He made a fortune during the retreat, and before retreating, he circled the concession halfway. It just happened to meet the retreat of the Japanese Toyota Spinning Factory garrisoned by the British army, and instead of white, he got thousands of large bags of Japanese cotton yarn to be sent to Suzhou for sale. This was his second retreat, followed by the defense of Nanjing. At first, it was decided to stick to the defense, but after the fight, it was not the same thing at all, and Tang Shengzhi's command mistake led to confusion in the defenders.
Many people did not have time to leave, laid down their weapons and were killed with the people of Nanjing, and Sun Yuanliang was also in the city at that time. No one knows how he escaped, and he himself did not say it clearly in his memoirs, but he brought out more than 600 brothers, passing through Taixing, Huaiyin, Xuzhou, and Zhengzhou, and arrived in Wuhan in late March 1938. After that, in addition to the Battle of Dushan, he also retreated from the Battle of Huaihai, so the world called him a general who escaped.
After arriving in Taiwan in 1949, Sun Yuanliang chose to retire from the army and engage in business due to the defeat of the division. He has raised chickens and opened restaurants, and many people say that he is in decline, but Sun Yuanliang believes that he is self-reliant and there is nothing disgraceful. After retiring from the army, whether good or bad, he rarely mentioned the events of that year, appearing in 1985, or because the Japanese denied the Nanjing incident. Indignant as a witness, the 81-year-old stood up and issued a letter of protest. On May 25, 2007, Sun Yuanliang died at the age of 103.
His life is difficult to conclude, but at least he has had moments of death with the Japanese army, and it is also his dream of shattering the Japanese army's death in March. In fact, whether he was considered an anti-Japanese hero or a general who escaped, his human diversity was not the characteristic of the people of that era.
