In the Xi'an Incident, under the premise that many voices called for 'killing Chiang Kai-shek', Zhang Xueliang still practiced the gentleman's way and released Chiang Kai-shek, because in Zhang Xueliang's view, at that time, the soldiers advised Chiang Kai-shek and controlled him, the purpose was to make him stop the civil war and unite with the Communists to resist Japan.
However, Zhang Xueliang ignored the point that the heart of a gentleman is not something that everyone has, and after Zhang Xueliang released Chiang Kai-shek and escorted him to Nanjing, Chiang Kai-shek immediately turned his face and, while promising to ensure Zhang Xueliang's personal safety, rebelled and imprisoned him for 54 years, half a century. I have to say that Jiang Shi's face turn is really unprecedented and unprecedented.
Next, let's follow the content of this issue to understand, before the beginning of this issue, I would like to ask you to pay attention to the collection, so as to facilitate our later stage, there is a chance to see you again.
Speaking of the Xi'an incident, everyone is not unfamiliar, catching Jiang Ting is still pestle on the edge of Xi'an, but why did Zhang Xueliang Yang Hucheng 'catch Jiang' at that time? I believe that many friends still do not know much about the details.
At that time, the situation was like this, the September 18 incident, the small Japanese invasion of the three eastern provinces, Chiang Kai-shek asked Zhang Xueliang, the bearer of the Kwantung Army, not to resist, and the purpose of his doing so was to preserve his strength, because at that time he was still competing with other warlords, and he also wanted to weaken or even eradicate our strength, so he had to consider personal well first, but did not proceed from the overall situation, and the starting point of the later Huayuankou incident was actually exactly the same.
As a result, because of Chiang Kai-shek's attitude, little Japan was unscrupulous and encroached on our territory inch by inch, until it was intolerable, Chiang Kai-shek still turned a blind eye, not only that, he also used a lot of his strength in provoking civil war repeatedly, which made Zhang Xueliang gradually intolerable to Chiang Kai-shek, and before that, what was the relationship between Zhang Xueliang and Chiang Kai-shek, to be precise, the relationship between subordinates and superiors, but this superior did not act, and the subordinates' anger became more and more vigorous. Later, he simply tied up his boss.
At that time, Chiang Kai-shek had already aroused public indignation because of his inaction, so after Zhang Xueliang took control of Chiang Kai-shek, many voices called for "killing Chiang Kai-shek", but Zhang Xueliang still proceeded from the overall situation, and after Chiang Kai-shek agreed to the request to resist Japan together, he released Chiang Kai-shek, and in order to show his subordinates' apologies for the disrespect of his superiors, Zhang Xueliang also specially escorted Chiang Kai-shek back to Nanjing from Xi'an.
At that time, many people advised Zhang Xueliang not to escort him randomly, because everyone knew almost everything about Chiang Kai-shek's personality, but Zhang Xueliang also sent Chiang Kai-shek back with the idea of friendship between the two men and the idea of a gentleman's friendship, and what Zhang Xueliang did not expect was that as soon as the plane arrived in Nanjing, he was controlled by Chiang Kai-shek and began a 54-year prison career.
So, why do you say here that Zhang Xueliang did not expect it?
Because in Zhang Xueliang's view, he and Chiang Kai-shek had a deep friendship, first of all, Chiang Kai-shek had long coveted the northeast land and the Kwantung Army that Zhang Xueliang was in charge of, and the status of the two at that time could be said to be equal.
Moreover, Zhang Xueliang's Kwantung Army also had the strength to oppose Chiang Kai-shek, but Zhang Xueliang proceeded from the overall situation and vigorously promoted the unification and integrity of the country, so he led his subordinates to unconditionally submit to Chiang Kai-shek, that is, the famous Northeast Yizhi at that time.
Secondly, before the 918 incident, when the warlords were fighting and wanted to occupy the mountain as king, Zhang Xueliang led hundreds of thousands of Kwantung troops to assist Chiang Kai-shek in controlling the overall situation.
Finally, it was precisely because Zhang Xueliang led his subordinates into the Central Plains to assist Chiang Kai-shek at that time, so it led to northeast air defense, the invasion of Small Japan, and the September 18 incident, but afterwards Chiang Kai-shek, in order to preserve his strength, also ordered Zhang Xueliang to stay still, resulting in Zhang Xueliang thus taking the name of not resisting the general.
From the perspective of these three things, Zhang Xueliang was benevolent to Chiang Kai-shek, so even though Zhang Xueliang launched the Xi'an Incident because of his desire to save the country, he still released Chiang Kai-shek safely in the later period.
Therefore, after Zhang Xueliang escorted Chiang Kai-shek back to Nanjing, he was controlled by Chiang Kai-shek's backhand for 54 years, and when Chiang Kai-shek died, he also confessed that his precious son Chiang Ching-kuo must not release Zhang Xueliang.
So, in the past 54 years, Chiang Kai-shek has imprisoned Zhang Xueliang, not killed him, and even provided him with good living conditions. Is this just a countless 'Jiang-style face-turning' or is it a palpitation in the heart of the external strong?
In fact, to be precise, there are two factors, after all, Chiang Kai-shek is a person who loves face too much, and he completely cannot accept the military incident launched by Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng, so after he secretly killed Yang Hucheng, he almost completely restricted Zhang Xueliang's personal freedom.
The reason why he did not kill Zhang Xueliang was not that he remembered how much grace he had, but that his rich wife, Song Meiling, promised Zhang Xueliang the conditions for ensuring his personal safety, so Chiang Kai-shek could not quickly take revenge.
Secondly, when he passed away, he also explained that the reason why his son Jiang Chingguo did not release Zhang Xueliang was indeed that there was a palpitation in the heart of the foreign strongman.
Because Chiang Kai-shek knows better than anyone that compared with Zhang Xueliang, he is not Zhang Xueliang's opponent, no matter from his heart and mind, to his talent and knowledge, including to the great righteousness of the nation.
Then, in this case, releasing Zhang Xueliang is undoubtedly letting the tiger return to the mountain, so he can only carry out the 'Jiang Style Face' to the end!
Well, the above is Zhang Xueliang was imprisoned for 54 years, Chiang Kai-shek did not kill and did not let go, is The whole content of Chiang Kai-shek's face or heart palpitations, I don't know what everyone thinks about this, welcome to leave a message to discuss, we will see you in the next issue.
