The later period of the War of Liberation
The Kuomintang troops were defeated one after another
Chiang Kai-shek was also forced to go into the wilderness
In his place was Li Zongren
However, Li Zongren's rise to power did not reverse the doom of the Kuomintang's defeat
After the beijing talks broke down
The People's Liberation Army continues to fight for the liberation of all of China
Until December 10th
After the People's Liberation Army encircled and suppressed the Kuomintang troops in Chengdu
Chiang Kai-shek could not sit still at all
So he temporarily designated Taiwan as "the rear that can no longer retreat."
He then flew to Taiwan on a special plane
And the news that Chiang Kai-shek was going to flee to Taiwan
It was known early on by the intelligence departments of our Party
Marshal Ye Jianying's men also personally found him
Discuss the shooting down of Chiang Kai-shek's plane
However, it was vetoed by Marshal Ye Jianying
This is also the reason why Chiang Kai-shek was able to fly to Taiwan safely
Why did Ye Shuai stop shooting down Chiang Kai-shek
Next, the Fun Film History Museum will explain the truth of the matter to you
Around 1949
Our Party has launched a series of devastating blows against the Kuomintang troops
After three famous battles of Liaoshen, Pingjin and Huaihai
The kuomintang's living forces were almost wiped out
Only scattered troops remained in the west and south
Just when the People's Liberation Army was preparing to launch a campaign to cross the river
The Kuomintang is facing a serious crisis within itself
Bai Chongxi and Li Zongren, led by the Gui clan
In order to fight for the opportunity to negotiate with the Chinese Communist Party
The two of them joined forces and openly clamored for Chiang Kai-shek to step down
In desperation, Chiang Kai-shek was forced to go to the wilderness
After he left the wilderness, Chiang Kai-shek began to plan for his own survival
At that time, there was a famous historian named Zhang Qijun by his side
This person is more far-sighted
He advised Chiang Kai-shek to gradually move his cronies to Taiwan
Take Taiwan as your final foothold
At the same time, it can also be used in case of emergency
Chiang Kai-shek felt that it made sense
So he relied on the strength of his connections
Chen Cheng, a close confidant of his own lineage, was appointed chairman of Taiwan Province
And when he issued this command
It was surprising that Li Zongren and Wei Daoming, chairman of Taiwan Province, were unaware
This shows Chiang Kai-shek's strength in the Kuomintang
Not only that, Chiang Kai-shek also let his eldest son Chiang Ching-kuo
Went to Shanghai to meet with the president of the bank of the National Government
He was ordered to transport all the gold and dollars in stock to Taiwan
On the eve of the Battle of the River Crossing
Chiang Kai-shek also mobilized more than 1,000 ships
Warships were even dispatched to transfer a large number of instruments and supplies to Taiwan
After he stepped down, the Beijing talks also broke down
The Kuomintang naturally knew that it would be sooner or later for the People's Liberation Army to cross the river
So the provisional government was placed in Guangzhou
"Zhongshan will rain and turn yellow, and a million male teachers will cross the river"
On April 23, 1949, with the sound of a cannon
The People's Liberation Army officially launched the Battle of Crossing the River
The Kuomintang's so-called thousand-mile defense line was easily broken by the People's Liberation Army
Subsequently, the city of Nanjing also fell back into the hands of the people
After the city was destroyed, the remnants of the Kuomintang soldiers fled for their lives
Chiang Kai-shek came to Shanghai under the escort of his own soldiers
Old Jiang was not willing to accept his own failure
So he organized the kuomintang's rout
Prepare to resist in Shanghai
At the same time, he sent a telegram to Song Meiling, who was far away in the United States
He and the army will swear to defend Shanghai to the death
History once again made Chiang Kai-shek punch in the face
The elite Kuomintang troops were not yet opponents of the Plaster
Not to mention these remnants of the defeated soldiers
After the liberation of Nanjing
The People's Liberation Army took advantage of the victory to pursue and easily liberated Shanghai
After the fall of Shanghai, Chiang Kai-shek turned to Guangzhou
Then the leaders of the Kuomintang held a collective meeting
After this meeting
Chiang Kai-shek then made up his mind to retreat to Taiwan
The work preparations for the Taiwan side have been further accelerated
Watching the Kuomintang about to collapse on the mainland
Li Zongren, who was the president at the time, first flew back to his hometown of Guilin
He then fled to the United States on the grounds of illness
The command of the Kuomintang troops on the mainland fell into the hands of Chiang Kai-shek
After basically pacifying the reactionary forces in the country
Chairman Mao announced the opening ceremony of the People's Republic of China on October 1
After the founding of the Country
The People's Liberation Army then swept up the remnants of the Kuomintang in the south
On October 14, Guangzhou fell again
Chiang Kai-shek also led the remnants of the army to move the capital to Chongqing
He personally led his troops to supervise the battle in Chongqing
Soon Chongqing was also lost
Chiang Kai-shek fled to Sichuan
Yan Xishan, chief executive of the Kuomintang, and others also fled to Sichuan
Chiang Kai-shek after fleeing to Sichuan
There was no time to catch my breath
I received a telegram from the chairman of Yunnan Province, Lu Han, who revolted
As soon as Luhan's telegram came out, it was like a spark
Quickly spread around
Liu Wenhui, chairman of Xikang Province, also immediately announced the uprising
At this time, Sichuan was already difficult to support alone
Surrounded on all sides by the forces of the People's Liberation Army
To escape
Chiang Kai-shek took his son Chiang Ching-kuo with him on December 10
Prepare to fly from Chengdu Phoenix Mountain Airport to Taiwan
After a series of careful arrangements
Chiang Kai-shek thought it was a seamless escape plan
In fact, it has long been known to our army
Because at that time Guangzhou had been captured by the People's Liberation Army
Chiang Kai-shek's plane wanted to fly to Taiwan
You have to pass through Guangzhou
It is well known that the take-off of aircraft is based on weather conditions
At that time, the personnel of Phoenix Mountain Airport did not know that Guangzhou had fallen
So when Chiang Kai-shek will take off
How long it will take to reach Guangzhou, and which plane to take
They are all known
After obtaining this top-secret intelligence
Hong Xuezhi learned of this matter
Immediately, this information was sent to Marshal Ye Jianying
Ye Shuai learned the news
Immediately send a telegram to the central government requesting instructions
But many urgent reports were sent in a row
None of them had an echo
This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is about to be missed
Hong Xuezhi was anxious to turn around and suggested that Ye Jianying cut first and play later
But Ye Jianying replied: Without the clear instructions of the central authorities, we will not do it
In this way, Chiang Kai-shek finally managed to escape to Taiwan
At that time, China was in the midst of infighting between the Kuomintang and the Communists
Looking at the whole world, it is a battle between the Soviet Union and the entire Western countries
Naturally, the United States did not want China to become a second Soviet power
So he wanted to vigorously support Chiang Kai-shek
Turn China into a capitalist country
So there was a situation in which the Soviet Union helped the Communist Party and the United States helped the Kuomintang
Chiang Kai-shek, on the other hand, was gradually defeated
It also had to get the United States to think of other ways again
When Chiang Kai-shek chose to retreat to Taiwan
The United States once advocated that he engage in two Chinas
Chiang Kai-shek was dictatorial
However, it is still clear in the face of great right and wrong
He firmly opposed the idea of two Chinas
In desperation, the United States began to co-opt Chen Cheng, then chairman of Taiwan Province
However, Chen Cheng was very loyal to Chiang Kai-shek
Nature will not be driven by American interests
On the contrary, Taiwan has been well organized
Take a look like this
The decision made by Ye Shuai and the Party Central Committee was still very wise
Because Chiang Kai-shek is a central figure
The United States wished he could not return to Taiwan
In this way, Taiwan will be leaderless
Chen Cheng is also likely to be sad and indignant and choose to defect to the United States
However, the US conspiracy did not succeed
I have to say that Ye Shuai is a person who understands the overall situation
Chiang Kai-shek was also a very principled man
It is believed that soon Taiwan will return to the embrace of the motherland
