The anti-Japanese general Wang Jiaben, the mystery of his death, some people say that soldiers heard gunshots, but they could not save them
In the War of Resistance Against Japan, Wang Jiaben, commander of the 79th Army of the Nationalist Army, encountered the Japanese army in Dong'an, because of the huge gap in numbers, and finally fought a fierce battle with the Japanese army and martyred the country.
However, there are different accounts of the sacrifice of the commander Wang Jiaben, some say yes, because the army in front of the army that received the wrong information retreated, but there was no time to inform the military department, and Wang Jiaben at that time also led the regiment to occupy a certain mountain pass in the front, but another regiment leader led the team away, which eventually led to Wang Jiaben and the Japanese army encountering a heroic sacrifice.
Wang Jiaben
:
Zi Liji, a native of Fuyuan County, Qujing, Yunnan Province, is a lieutenant general of the 79th Army of the National Revolutionary Army. When he was young, he aspired to serve the country in the military and was admitted to the fourteenth session of the Yunnan Army Lecture Hall, where he studied hard and earnestly and showed great talent in the military field. Graduated from the third stage of the higher education class of the Central Military Academy.
After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Wang Jiaben went from the "Battle of Songhu" to the Battle of Nanjing, the Battle of Taierzhuang, the Battle of Changsha and even the Battle of Changheng in 1944, and in the 22 battles on the frontal battlefield in China, Wang Jiaben experienced a total of 9 cruel and fierce battles with the Japanese and Kou. Because of his pioneering soldiers, good command, countless enemies, and outstanding military achievements, Wang Jiaben received the glorious title of "General of Hard Battles", won the "Order of yunli", and was promoted to commander of the Ninety-eighth Division and deputy commander of the Seventy-ninth Army.
In the army, Wang Jia Benzhi army was severe, encountered soldiers who fled from the front, directly shot, once encountered a soldier who raped a woman, decisively put the law on the spot, the soldiers gave him a nickname "Wang Butcher", whenever the sound was sounded, he would personally go down to supervise, to ensure that the salary was not deducted, appreciated by the superiors, but also by some officers, this move touched the interests of others.
According to others' recollections, when Wang Jiaben took over as the commander of the 98th Division, his predecessor Mo Yishuo drove away a small car of the 98th Division. Wang Jiaben arranged for the guards to secretly ambush him, and he forced Mo to get out of the car and drive the car back halfway through. Although Mo Yishuo had parachuted in before and robbed Wang Jia of his position as deputy division commander, everyone had already left, and you still felt very angry when you did so.
Especially during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, prices rose, military salaries also rose, older officers could do business, while grass-roots officers could only eat empty salaries, because Wang Jiaben personally supervised the sound, so many officers' financial roads were cut off, because only by relying on that little military salary to support their families, they could not support their families at all.
Now according to the accounts of some veterans, we can know that the salaries at that time were indeed pitiful, and people did not dare to compliment, and there are some old photos that can confirm this situation.
Forty years later, a veteran recounts how Commander Wang Jiaben was killed, and as soon as dawn came, the pistol company of the vanguard of the 79th Army Command Post went downhill through the Yuqiting Slope to the plains east of the pass, followed by Wang Jiaben on horseback. As soon as the troops descended from Yuqiting, Yan Zechang, director of the Military Affairs Department, and Staff Officer Li Yinxi vaguely saw from the telescope that there were countless high-headed malaysian activities on the east side of the village of Yamaguchipu. Although the commander had ordered Wang Zhuoru to occupy The Pass Shop at that time, Wang Zhuoru's regiment was infantry and had no cavalry, and he immediately felt that things were strange.
Suddenly, there was a burst of gunfire on the mountain, and the vanguard met the Japanese and quickly engaged in a fierce battle. Because of the ambush by the Japanese army, the pistol company subconsciously quickly scattered to both sides to engage in a fierce battle with the Japanese army, and Wang Jiaben and others who were riding forward on horseback at this time were all exposed to the japanese machine gun fire. Because Wang Jiaben rode a high-headed horse and was very conspicuous, he was besieged by the Japanese army.
The Japanese army was condescending, using heavy machine guns to sweep at Wang Jiaben and others on horseback, although Wang Jiaben's aide-de-camp Wu Zhenke and others desperately tried to rescue them, but the incident occurred suddenly, Wang Jiaben had been shot several times, and when they reluctantly retreated to the east side of Yuqiting, due to slow action, they were finally chased by the Japanese cavalry.
On the slope of the Yuqi Pavilion, the guards were slashed and killed by the Japanese cavalry, and finally only Wang Jiaben and Wu Adjutant were left, at this time, Deputy Wu was also wounded in many places, General Wang Jiaben was shot several times, he picked up a rifle to support his body, and engaged in a final hand-to-hand combat with the ghost cavalry that rushed up.
After the battle, The Commander of the Wang Jia Ben Army was martyred because he was outnumbered, and when our army returned to the battlefield, he found that the Commander of the Wang Jia Ben Army had fallen in a pool of blood.
After several decades, we learned the truth about the death of Commander Wang Jiaben, whose glorious deeds can be sung and wept, and will never fall in people's hearts.
