Ancient wonders say

Speaking of Guangxi people, what impressions will everyone have? Probably many people will think that they are particularly good at funny. For example, the famous quote of the Guangxi takeaway,

You bad old man is so bad, I believe you are a ghost!

However, what may not be expected by everyone is that the Guangxi people on the battlefield are more famous than the big names

The Sichuan Army and the Xiang Army

All are fierce "wolf soldiers".

How fierce are the Guangxi Wolf Soldiers? The 20,000 Gui army fought 150,000 elite Japanese troops, and fought the Japanese army in a terrifying battle

One of our ten marshals

Mr. Peng

Even when breaking through the encirclement of the nationalist army, he said, "

The Qianjun Dian army has two sheep, and the Xiang army is a wolf;

The monkeys in Guangxi are Gui Jun, fierce as tigers and evil as wolves. ”

So, how good are the humorous Guangxi people on the battlefield? What terrible results have they achieved? Today we will tell you about it

Guangxi Wolf Soldier.

How fierce are the Guangxi Wolf Soldiers? The 20,000 Gui army fought 150,000 elite Japanese troops, and fought the Japanese army in a terrifying battle

The origin of the Guangxi Wolf Soldier

The guangxi wolf soldier's claim did not appear during the War of Resistance Against Japan, but during the Ming Dynasty. The terrain around Guangxi is complex and historical

For a long time, it has been a place where war and banditry are more serious

In order to survive in this harsh environment, Guangxi people can not only eat all kinds of bugs, but also

Accustomed to the martial environment.

They often have to learn some traditional martial arts from an early age and constantly improve their ability to fight. Coupled with the fact that the local history was often in the border area, the Central Plains Dynasty rarely brought Confucian etiquette to the local area. So the locals

The folk customs are also more vigorous

Relatively speaking, the people in the Central Plains will be milder. Because their living environment is not so harsh, in

Wokou

At the time of the invasion of the Ming Dynasty, the Wokou, which were made up of Chinese pirates and some Japanese ronin.

It can run rampant for hundreds of miles along the southeast coast such as Nanjing, killing as if it were in no man's land. And this time, Guangxi Tuguan

Mrs. Watts

Send troops to the southeast. With that time

The native soldiers of Guangxi came to fight the Wokou

Because at that time, the Zhuang people in Guangxi were often called slangs, and their style of fighting was relatively tough. It can be called a "tiger and wolf division". So many people call them

The Guangxi Wolf Soldiers did not live up to expectations in the battle against the Wokou, and not only rescued themselves from the siege of the Wokou

Yu Dayu

And also defeated more than 4,000 Wokou. And in the later war against the Wokou,

Guangxi Wolf Soldier "Ten Out and Nine Victories"

It even set a record of defeating more than 200 Wokou with 50 people. So to speak, in

Qi Jiguang

Before the official appearance, the Guangxi Wolf Soldier was the most powerful character in the anti-Wu battle at that time.

During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the size and equipment of the Guangxi Wolf Soldiers

In 1931

"9/18 Incident"

After the incident, the Japanese army began to invade China on a large scale. And the people of all parts of our country have also begun to be heroic

The War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression

。 Not only were the people of the front-line provinces involved in the fighting, but many of the provinces that were still in the rear at the time also participated in the fighting.

Among them, the people of Guangxi are the most special, they

The number of troops sent reached more than 1 million

。 This number is among the whole country

Ranked second.

But you must know that Guangxi is not our populous province, so Guangxi sent it

The proportion of anti-Japanese soldiers exceeded that of all provinces, including those already occupied by the Japanese army, ranking first in the country.

And these

The Guangxi soldiers are particularly known for their backward equipment

They were not old Chiang Kai-shek's concubine army, so naturally there would be no good equipment. At that time, people's impression of the Guangxi Army was that they were wearing a pair of tattered straw shoes and holding an old Hanyang-made. You may also carry a variety of cold weapons with you.

Because they wear straw shoes almost exclusively, others often do too

Call them "straw shoe soldiers"

。 But don't underestimate these "straw shoe soldiers", although they are poorly equipped, they are highly motivated. And the combat effectiveness was the leading among the warlords across the country at that time.

For example, the warlords of Yunnan once gathered 120,000 troops to occupy Guangxi, because they saw that guangxi's troops were not many, but in fact, there were not many troops in Guangxi at that time.

Guangxi Only took out 20,000 troops, but in the end it was easy

Defeated 120,000 Dian troops

。 And the Gui warlords

Li Zongren

With his own Guangxi wolf soldiers, he rarely lost battles in the warlord melee across the country.

The battle record of the Guangxi wolf soldiers in the Battle of Songhu

During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Wolf Soldiers in Guangxi were very excited one by one, and they said that they had fought civil wars before, but now they were

It is necessary to fight against the aggressors and defend the homeland

。 After coming to the battlefield, the performance of the Guangxi wolf soldiers really surpassed ordinary people.

The first large-scale encounter with the Japanese army took place

Battle of Songhu

in the middle. At this time, the Japanese army was clamoring for the destruction of China in three months. Moreover, most of the nationalist troops they encountered before were not strong in will to fight, and they could not withstand their several charges and scattered and fled.

So they thought it was still like this here, and then they met.

Among the Gui Army, the Seventh Army is known as the "Steel Army"

。 Although the equipment of the Gui army was far worse than that of the Japanese army, they were all deadly on the battlefield.

Therefore, the Japanese army was quickly unable to resist, and even had to withdraw from their positions with their soldiers. whereas

The Seventh Army also regained many positions here

。 The Gui army, which had opened its doors, quickly took over the defense of the old Jiang Yan's army.

Officer of the Gui clan

Liao Lei, commander of the 21st Group Army

He gave the order to hold on, and told the soldiers that if they left the position without authorization, they would come to see them. Liao Lei was not only very strict with his subordinates, but also personally ran to the front line to command.

In the midst of enemy fire, the warriors saw them

The figure of the commander stood there undefeated

It played a great role in encouraging the morale of the Gui army as a whole. In order to defeat these crazy opponents, the Japanese army not only dispatched tanks and artillery, but also drove the planes over.

Even their warships sailed along the Yangtze River, but the Gui army did not retreat in the face of the advanced weapons of the Japanese army, and the death of one regiment after another was a common thing. Although the Final Battle of Songhu ended with the retreat of the Nationalist army. But Gui Jun is here

Played an amazing record.

When the nationalist army was about to retreat, the Gui army was ordered to block the Japanese army at Wuxing. And the ratio of the numbers of the two sides in this war is,

The Japanese army was 50,000 people, and the Gui army was 10,000 people.

In the data of the entire anti-Japanese battlefield that was later counted, it was found that the Nationalist army wanted to resist the attack of the Japanese army.

It generally takes more than five times as many people as them

。 Since this was the early stage of the War of Resistance Against Japan, the soldiers of the Japanese army were more sophisticated. So the ratio may be even higher.

At this time, the Gui Army's "grass shoe soldiers" were

The anti-Japanese army was strong at 1:5

。 And near Wuxing

It blocked the Japanese army for 14 days

! It can be seen that the combat effectiveness of the Gui Army at that time was far superior to that of other armies.

The Battle of Mingguang and the Great Victory of Taierzhuang

Around December 1937, the Japanese army fought another battle with the Gui army in Mingguang. In this battle, the Gui army fought with 20,000 people, which was equal to the 30,000 people of the Japanese army.

Soon after, under the leadership of Li Zongren, the Gui army defeated the whole country

Taierzhuang Victory

。 This campaign was the first major victory on the frontal battlefield, and it played a role in boosting morale in the anti-Japanese resistance throughout the country.

In the defense of Guilin, the Guangxi wolf soldiers once made the Japanese tremble with fear

Of course, the most tragic battle fought by the Gui Army against the Japanese army was fought while defending Guilin

Defense of Guilin

After the Japanese army has breached Changsha and Hengyang, it can drive straight into burma to meet the Japanese army there. At this time, Guilin is a nail that stands here. However, for defending their hometown.

Bai Chongxi

These warlords are not particularly enthusiastic.

Because they know that the army is the root of their survival in the chaotic world, they don't want to fight all their strength. So before the Japanese reached Guilin, they had already withdrawn most of their forces in advance.

Only left in the city

The 170th Division, made up of recruits, and a crippled 131st Division. The total number of people adds up to just over 10,000 people.

At this time, the Japanese army that attacked Guilin from the south reached as many as 150,000 people! It also carries a large number of advanced weapons.

This war, if viewed in terms of strength alone, is a one-sided massacre. However, the Gui army that remained here did not fear and retreat, not only that, the people of nearby Guilin actually spontaneously organized themselves and brought them what they used in their daily lives

Earthen guns, grenades, explosives

He came to the city to defend the Japanese army with the Gui army.

Coupled with these scattered ordinary people, the general defenders of Guilin at this time

Only about 20,000

。 The intelligence of the Japanese army was also relatively advanced, so they soon learned about the situation. And thought it would be an easy siege battle.

But the Gui army will tell them in the next battle, even if the defenders here are only new soldiers, not even the common people who are not new soldiers

It can also play a record that makes the Japanese army fearful!

The Gui army knew that their firepower was completely inferior to that of the Japanese army, so they decided to start a street battle with the Japanese army.

Troops were hidden in every house, ambushes were set up on every path, and poisoning wells that the Japanese might have drunk.

The Japanese easily broke through the defensive line on the outskirts of the Gui army, and then they came to the city of Guilin. At this time, they suddenly realized that this was the real battlefield. They almost

They were attacked by the Gui army all the time, and the casualties continued to increase.

Although it seemed that they had entered the city of Guilin, they could not occupy it at all. The Japanese suffered heavy casualties but were unable to bring the Gui army to its knees. In the end, the frenzied Japanese army beat 20,000 straw shoe soldiers with 150,000 people, and also

Had to use poison gas assists

Because these Gui troops did not understand poison gas bombs, they suffered huge damage. In the end, the ammunition ran out and the city of Guilin was lost. In this battle

The Gui army killed 12,000 people and took more than 7,000 prisoners

。 But no one surrenders when the mind is clear.

If it had not been attacked by gas bombs, whether the Japanese army could occupy Guilin City would have to be said twice. The Japanese attacked 20,000 straw shoemen with 150,000 men, but in the end

More than 6,000 people were killed and more than 20,000 injured

Later one at the time

Commander of the Japanese Army

In his diary, he wrote in frustration,

They are extremely poorly equipped but extremely fierce.

There were a lot of natives strapped to their bodies with explosives to blow up our tanks and landing craft.

Their bravery is far beyond our army's reach, and our morale is very low. All this gave the Japanese army the idea of "doubting life". What do you think about this? Everyone is welcome to leave a message in the comment area to discuss.
