In the Battle of Menglianggu, Chiang Kai-shek's "genius" "center blossoming" plan originally wanted to destroy the East China Field Army, but the result was that the reorganized Seventy-fourth Division, one of the five main forces, was completely destroyed, and Zhang Lingfu, the commander of the lieutenant general division, was also killed in Huangquan.
There are many film and television dramas about Meng Lianggu, the famous ones are "Southern Expedition and Northern War", "Red Sun", etc., but later some film and television dramas were not so rigorous, and the Kuomintang officers in the drama could be said to have a variety of titles for Chiang Kai-shek.
Some call Chiang Kai-shek chairman of the committee, and some call Chiang Kai-shek president.
Chen Cheng in the play actually claimed to be a student of Chiang Kai-shek.
What should I call him at that time?
What to call Chiang Kai-shek
Chiang Kai-shek (October 31, 1987 – April 5, 1975), named Jiang Zhoutai on the family tree, named Jiang Ruiyuan when he was a child, named Jiang Zhiqing when he was in school 16, and Chiang Kai-shek in 1917.
"Jieshi" was his pen name when he studied in Japan in 1912, and later became his word.
Therefore, Jieshi is just his word, not his name, his name is Chiang Kai-shek.
The Kuomintang and the Nationalist Government called him Jiang Gong, Mr. Jiang, Commander-in-Chief Chiang, Chairman Chiang Kai-shek, President Chiang Kai-shek, Chairman Chiang Kai-shek, and President Chiang Kai-shek. During World War II, he held as many as 82 positions.
This point in time should be mastered.
Chairman Jiang
In 1928, Chiang Kai-shek became chairman of the Central Military Commission of the Chinese Kuomintang.
Note that it is the Chairman.
Chairman Jiang
After 9.18 in 1931, he resigned as chairman of the National Government and became chairman of the Military Commission.
In 1939, Chiang Kai-shek was appointed chairman of the Supreme Committee for National Defense.
During this period, it was Chairman Jiang.
In the War of Resistance Against Japan, it was always "Chairman Chiang Kai-shek" who led the Chinese army.
"Chairman Chiang Kai-shek" is also his most prestigious title.
In 1943, Chiang Kai-shek became chairman of the Nationalist Government.
At this time, it was "Chairman Chiang" again, not Chairman Chiang Kai-shek.
In some film and television dramas, when it came to the Liberation War, the Kuomintang officers were still calling "Chairman Chiang Kai-shek", which was obviously a time and space travel.
President Chiang Kai-shek
In 1948, he was elected "President" at the "National Convention".
Before the National Congress in 1948, the Kuomintang officers in the film and television drama called "President Chiang Kai-shek", which was also a bit ahead of its time.
headmaster
Chiang Kai-shek was the first president of the Whampoa Military Academy, and students who graduated from Whampoa in the early years, regardless of the generals of the Kuomintang and the Communists, would honor him as "principal".
And Chen Cheng, who graduated from the Baoding Army Officer School, called himself a "student" in film and television dramas, which was the director's wrong teacher.
It was good to call him principal, but Chen Cheng went to the Whampoa Military Academy not as a student, but as an instructor, an education aide-de-camp, and later as an artillery instructor.
president
Chiang Kai-shek has always been the president of the Chinese Kuomintang.
Persecuted by Li Zongren and others, the president went to the wilderness and lived in seclusion in his hometown of Fenghua, Zhejiang, or the president, giving orders.
In the Battle of Menglianggu, chiang kai-shek certainly could not be called "chairman" or "president", and the students of the Whampoa Military Academy, such as Wang Yaowu and Li Tianxia of the Whampoa Phase III, and Zhang Lingfu and Hu Lian of the Whampoa Phase IV, they called them "Principal", there was no problem.
Judging from the Kuomintang military telegram in 1947, the correct title was "Chairman Chiang", and at that time he should be called "Chairman Chiang".
nickname
Of course, in the long history, he has many not very good code names and nicknames.
Well known, the soldiers of the Red Army called him "Jiang Guangtou", and the People's Liberation Army and the common people called him "Jiang Damn" and "Captain of the Transport Brigade".
During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Joseph Stilwell, chief of staff sent by the Allies to Chairman Chiang Kai-shek, called him "peanut rice" behind his back.
They were very disgusted with each other and often quarreled.
In 1944, Chiang Kai-shek finally expelled Stilwell, but named the Burma Highway that received foreign aid as the "Stilwell Highway".
Americans nicknamed Chiang Kai-shek Gimo, which was called Grand Marshal.
Hence his English name Chiang Kai-shek.
This name was translated by an expert as "Chang Kaishen" and was widely circulated.
Modern military fans call him "Chang Kaishen" and "Chang Gong".
Because of his great achievements in delivering weapons and ammunition to the people's army, he was also jokingly called "the director of the general logistics department of the Chinese People's Liberation Army".
See the "Kaishen Logistics" on the network, do not think which courier company.
General Manager of Kaishen Logistics, surname Chang.
He's not sending a courier to your house.
Official title
In January 1949, the CCP radio broadcast eight conditions for peace talks: declaring Chiang Kai-shek "China's number one war criminal," "the leader of the Kuomintang bandit gang," and "selling all the interests of the Chinese to the puppet president of the Republic of China government of the U.S. government."
Chiang Kai-shek had to announce his retirement, go to the wilderness, and return to his hometown of Xikou, Zhejiang Province, to live in seclusion.
On April 24, the People's Liberation Army occupied Nanjing.
The Nationalist government once again moved the capital to Chongqing, only this time, the time was too short.
On October 1, the People's Republic of China was proclaimed.
In December, Yunnan was peacefully liberated. Yan Xishan presided over a meeting of the Executive Yuan and announced the relocation of the capital from Chongqing to Taipei.
Chiang Kai-shek's rule in Chinese mainland came to an end and he never returned.
On April 7, 1975, the People's Daily published the news: "Chiang Kai-shek, the leader of the Kuomintang reactionaries and the public enemy of the Chinese people, fell ill and died in Taiwan on April 5."
