Anti-Japanese war veterans, after burying the medal certificate in the ground for 35 years, after digging it out, they were admired
Jiang Kaiguo old man holding a "broken sword"
Jiang Kaiguo is a veteran of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and he has been treasured in his home with a special "Anti-Japanese War Medal", which is a "broken sword".
1. How did the broken sword come about?
Jiang Kaiguo was born in 1920, the third oldest, the family is rich, did not suffer any hardships when he was a child, and also went to school to learn a lot of knowledge.
Because he was the third in line, according to the requirements of the national army to "catch Ding", he would also become a soldier sooner or later. Yu Qi waited for someone to catch Ding, and it was better to take the initiative to join the army. At the age of 16, he applied for the Communication Corps of the Nationalist Army and participated in the study of the operator.
Due to his good academic performance, in 1938, he was sent to the Whampoa Military Academy to study, and graduated two years later. Upon graduation, according to the custom, the school will give a "Zhongzheng Sword" to commemorate it. This is where the "Broken Sword" comes from.

2. Jiang Kaiguo's anti-War experience.
After graduating, Jiang Kaiguo became a radio squad leader in a certain northwestern unit of the Nationalist Army, with the rank of second lieutenant.
In 1941, during a mission, Jiang Kaiguo was very seriously injured, often coughing up blood, unable to continue to serve in the army, and had to leave the team to return to his hometown. After recuperating from his wounds at home, he joined the Qujiang Assault Brigade and fought against the Japanese in the lofty mountains. Since it was a commando brigade, there was not much energy, so it fought some small battles. At that time, there were many devils in the scourge township in groups of five or seven, and at this time, Jiang Kaiguo's brigade would go to fight the devils. In this way, the accumulation of more and more ghosts also annihilated a lot of devils, and the most time, more than 100 devils were eliminated at once. By the end of the fight, the small unit of japanese devils did not dare to go down the mountain alone.
After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the Nationalist army issued Jiang Kaiguo with a victory badge and 80 oceans of settlement fees. After the victory of the War of Resistance, Jiang Kaiguo felt that his task was completed and retired home.
3. After the war, the military merit medal was buried.
The Jiang family belongs to a large family in the local area, has money, Jiang Kaiguo is clever and capable, and after returning home, he opened a rice shop and made a little money. In 1949, after the liberation of the whole country, Jiang Kaiguo's rice bank was a public-private partnership, and Jiang Kaiguo was very supportive and handed over his own rice bank. However, he was still uneasy about his past as a Kuomintang soldier, and after thinking about it again. He buried his Whampoa graduation certificate, the certificate issued by the army, the medal, and the graduation gift "Zhongzheng Sword" when Whampoa graduated.
From then on, he did not talk about the anti-Japanese war, nor did he allow others to discuss it.
In 1984, Jiang Kaiguo was more than 60 years old, and he felt that he had fought against Japan after all, and if he had been buried in the ground, it would be a pity. I found the place where I had buried it, dug it up, and except for a sword handle, the other things inside had already turned into dirt and could not be found.
The Japanese army is by the West Lake
Thinking of these past events, the old man Jiang Kaiguo could not help but sigh, for a long time, there are probably many people who will forget these things. Over the years, many anti-Japanese TV dramas, I dare not watch, The Japanese devils are so easy to fight Oh, when the Nationalist Air Force set out from Zhejiang and bombed the Japanese mainland. As a result, the Battle of Zhejiang and Gansu broke out, the Japanese army killed more than 300,000 Zhejiang people, and our commandos could only temporarily avoid the front in the face of this situation, or they could not fight.

In the face of the honor of "anti-Japanese veterans", the elderly Jiang Kaiguo said: "The War of Resistance Against Japan was not fought by me alone, what merit did I have, at that time everyone was fighting the War of Resistance."
