During the Republic of China period, because wang jialie of the Qian army was defeated in the confrontation with Chiang Kai-shek, his military power was deprived, and Guizhou was smoothly incorporated into the territory of the central government, after which Chiang Kai-shek, in order to suppress the Qian army, split the few armies of the Qian army into five divisions, scattered and disrupted, and sent to the anti-Japanese front, and the Qian army troops thus became the "fire brigade leader" on the anti-Japanese battlefield, wherever there was a war, they were sent to wherever there was a war. So, who are the commanders of these five divisions? How did they end up?
The five Qianjun divisions were the 102nd Division, the 103rd Division, the 121st Division, the 140th Division (Southern Sichuan Border Defense Army), and the newly organized 8th Division, with the division commanders Being Bai Huizhang, He Zhizhong, Wu Jianping, Shen Jiucheng, and Jiang Zaizhen.
Bai Huizhang, who was Wang Jialie's concubine general and also cultivated by Wang Jialie, served as the 2nd Division of the 25th Army, and in 1935, Wang Jialie led his troops to "encircle and suppress" the Red Army, and both were defeated and injured with the Red Army, Chiang Kai-shek took the opportunity to send the Central Army into Qianjing, joined forces with Bai Huizhang and He Zhizhong, and seized Wang Jialie's military power. After that, Bai Huizhang's 2nd Division was reorganized into the 102nd Division of the National Revolutionary Army, and in 1937, he was sent to the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and successively participated in the Battle of Songhu, the Battle of Xuzhou, the Battle of Nanchang, and the Battle of Changsha, and made outstanding achievements. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the 102nd Division was transferred to the Cantonese Army, and Bai Huizhang was deprived of his military powers, and then he was idle at home, declaring an uprising in 1950 and dying in the town rebellion in 1952.
He Zhizhong, who was Wang Jialie's cousin, in 1935, his troops were organized into the 103rd Division, and in 1937 he was sent to the Fortress of Jiangyin, holding out for three months, with troop losses of up to 7,000 troops, and only 2,000 people left after the war. After that, He Zhizhong led his troops to participate in the reorganization training, the 103rd Division was replenished, and later participated in the Defense of Nanjing, and was promoted to the commander of the 86th Army in 1938. In 1939, Chiang Kai-shek ordered the abolition of the 86th Army, and He Zhizhong was deprived of his military power, so he had no choice but to return to Guizhou, and has been engaged in business and established industry ever since. In 1976, He Zhi died of a serious illness in Guiyang at the age of 83.
Wu Jianping, who served as the commander of the 6th Regiment of the Qian Army in 1926, was promoted to chief of staff of the 2nd Division of Wang Jialie's Department in 1929, and in 1935, when Wang Jialie fell, Wu Jianping served as the commander of the 3rd Division of the 2nd Route Army, and the following year he was transferred to the commander of the 121st Division. After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Wu Jianping led the 121st Division out of Qian, participated in the Battle of Songhu, and was transferred to the deputy commander of the 86th Army in 1938, and was deprived of military power in the way of "bright ascension and dark surrender". After that, Wu Jianping never really held military power again, and during the Liberation War, Wu Jianping served as the commander of the 2nd Appeasement District of Guizhou Province, and he had no good feelings for Chiang Kai-shek, and led the uprising in 1949. In 1962, Wu Jianping died of illness at the age of 67.
Shen Jiucheng, although he was a native of Zunyi, Guizhou, he was not a general in the true sense of the Qian Army, and Shen Jiucheng had served in the Central Army and the Guangdong Army successively. In 1934, Shen Jiucheng was transferred to the deputy commander of the 59th Division and became a general under Xue Yue's troops, and in 1935, the Qianjun Instructor was organized into the newly organized 25th Division, and Xue Yue appointed the "Qian" general Shen Jiu as the division commander in order to better control this unit. In 1939, Shen Jiucheng was promoted to deputy commander of the newly organized 6th Army, participated in the Battle of Changsha, and was promoted to lieutenant general of the 78th Army after the war. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Shen Jiucheng was forced to retire and fled to Kunming in 1949, but his subsequent experiences are not recorded in the history books.
Jiang Zaizhen, who was the commander of the 3rd Division during the reign of Zhou Xicheng, extorted 100,000 silver dollars from the common people in 1932 when he merged with the Wang family and withdrew from Zunyi. After that, Jiang Zaizhen became a family slave with three surnames, successively defected to Long Yun and Liu Xiang, recaptured Loushan Pass in 1935, and soon became the commander of the newly organized 8th Army Division. After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Jiang Zaizhen led his troops to the anti-Japanese front, and in the Battle of Yumen, he repelled more than 70 attacks of the Japanese army and firmly held his position. After that, the New Eighth Division successively participated in the counter-offensive against Guilin and Jeonju, and was soon completely annihilated by the Japanese army, and Jiang Zaizhen became the commander of the light pole from then on. In 1952, Jiang Zaizhen was sentenced to death and later executed at the Zunyi Memorial Square.
