Deserters have always been a despicable presence on the battlefield, who not only lack courage, but also have no sense of responsibility.
In the Kuomintang army, there was such a general who escaped from the battlefield when the enemy attacked, and even became complacent about his own behavior, and was ridiculed by people as a "fleeing general" by people.
After the war, the fleeing general, far from being hidden in history, flourished in the business world and gave birth to a well-known son, sun yuanliang, a kuomintang general.
Whampoa graduated and began his career in the military
In 1904, Sun Yuanliang was born in Chengdu, Sichuan, his father was a local county official, although the Qing Dynasty has reached the twilight of his life, but his family is still very rich, Sun Yuanliang's father is an old son, for him is a high hope.
Sun Yuanliang's father often taught him that being born in a chaotic world, what he would do in the future may be risky, but reading books is his own, and only by reading well will he not achieve nothing in the future, and his father's concept has given Sun Yuanliang a very far-reaching influence.
However, when Sun Yuanliang was young, his father died, and he never forgot his father's instructions to him, studied hard every day, achieved excellent results, and successfully entered the Affiliated Middle School of Nanjing University in 1922.
During his time at the school, Sun Yuanliang showed his amazing learning ability and reaction ability, just when the domestic turmoil was in the country at that time, the Whampoa Military Academy had just been established to recruit students from the society, and Sun Yuanliang decided to apply for the examination.
In 1924, Sun Yuanliang lived up to expectations and became the first student of the Whampoa Military Academy on the recommendation of Mr. Li Dazhao.
The ancients were cloudy, saw the micro-knowledge, touched the class bypass, Sun Yuanliang not only had a very good level of cultural knowledge, but also an outstanding presence in the military academy, and soon received the attention of the teachers.
In the end, Sun Yuanliang graduated with excellent results, and naturally joined the Kuomintang, becoming a company commander and battalion commander of the First Division of the First Army of the National Revolutionary Army.
In 1926, the National Revolutionary Army officially went on a northern expedition, and Sun Yuanliang also went to the front line to attack Sun Chuanfang in Jiangxi.
However, the First Army, because of its greed and arrogance, rushed to attack without the organization, disrupting the plan of the Northern Expedition, although it was lucky to succeed, but it failed to block Sun Chuanfang's counterattack later.
The commander of the First Division, Wang Bailing, directly left the team and fled away, leaving Sun Yuanliang and Li Liangrong into a bitter battle, Sun Chuanfang's counterattack was very strong, and the First Division was not their opponent at all, so they asked their superiors for support.
The support has not arrived, Sun Yuanliang's team is almost unable to support, just at this time, there is wrong intelligence, the detective said that in the follow-up there will be a large number of enemy troops to follow up to this side, Sun Yuanliang began to retreat in a hurry, after safety, Sun Yuanliang also said that he was very happy to save himself.
However, in fact, there was no so-called large army approaching, and Sun Yuanliang's behavior in the eyes of his superiors was to disobey the order, abandon the city and humiliate his post, and was a disgraceful deserter.
After Chiang Kai-shek got the news, he was very angry, and before that, because Sun Yuanliang not only had excellent achievements, but also had excellent temperament and rich bookish temperament, he was very important to him, and now this battle has made Chiang Kai-shek very disappointed in Sun Yuanliang.
Some internal officials also took the opportunity to trample on Sun Yuanliang and vigorously advocated that Sun Yuanliang was an incompetent person, and that such deserters should be shot and dealt with in order to set an example.
This is undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire, and Sun Yuanliang was pushed to the cusp of the wind for a while.
During the lecture to the officers and men, Chiang Kai-shek reprimanded Sun Yuanliang in front of all the officers and men, saying that Sun Yuanliang had violated the law of sitting together and should be shot, and attributed the defeat of this war to Sun Yuanliang, and everyone believed that Sun Yuanliang's fear of death led to the defeat of the war.
In the early morning after the lecture, Chiang Kai-shek again gave a separate lecture to Sun Yuanliang's troops, reiterating the punishment for Sun Yuanliang, who had said that Sun Yuanliang had said that sun Yuanliang was suffering, and just when everyone thought that Sun Yuanliang's death was fixed, Sun Yuanliang simply disappeared.
Funk? The awakening of the nation in peril
Other officers and men were praising Chiang Kai-shek's righteousness and law enforcement, but they did not know that Chiang Kai-shek had long since tilted the balance in favor of Sun Yuanliang.
Chiang Kai-shek was indeed very angry when he first heard the news that Sun Yuanliang had abandoned the city and fled.
But later, after calming down and thinking, coupled with sun Yuanliang's subordinates jointly writing a letter, saying that Sun Yuanliang accepted the error message, Chiang Kai-shek was already relieved.
However, his own words of instruction had already been spoken, and it just so happened that he could also take this opportunity to strictly enforce military discipline and clearly reward and punish.
Therefore, while Chiang Kai-shek ostensibly said that he wanted to shoot Sun Yuanliang, he quietly arranged for Sun Yuanliang to study abroad, and also gave Sun Yuanliang the expenses needed to study abroad at his own expense.
Sun Yuanliang went to Japan's Army Officer School to study under Chiang Kai-shek's arrangement, and this trip to Japan can also be called a gilded trip.
After returning to China, Sun Yuanliang was directly promoted to battalion commander, and just when everyone was amazed by Sun Yuanliang's sudden appearance, he became a brigade commander again with his excellent performance, and the future was bright.
At this time, the Japanese invaders also set foot on the land of the mainland and began to plunder on a large scale, and after many years, Sun Yuanliang once again stepped onto the battlefield, at this time he had retreated to youth and recklessness, as if he were a mature officer.
In the war in which Sun Yuanliang participated, he was brave and fearless, fought with the enemy to the death many times, did not have the appearance of a general who had once escaped, and made outstanding achievements for the War of Resistance Against Japan, and was a well-deserved national hero.
Retired from business and gave birth to a famous movie star
In 1937, Sun Yuanliang had problems with the wartime military salary for participating in the defense of Nanjing, and Chiang Kai-shek asked him to go to the Military Justice Department to make it clear, although he was later acquitted, but this experience made Sun Yuanliang thoroughly see the darkness of the official field, and also made him feel physically and mentally exhausted.
Sun Yuanliang retreated to Taiwan with a large army after Chiang Kai-shek's defeat, but because his experience in prison made him completely tired of the deceitful and fearful life of the officialdom, Sun Yuanliang decided to resign from his post and become an ordinary person.
However, ordinary people also have to face the pressure of life, especially Sun Yuanliang is the top pillar of the family, he is responsible for the food and clothing of a large family, so he decided to go to the sea to engage in business.
Inexperienced Sun Yuanliang first opened a ramen restaurant, the business can only be said to be passable, but the good times are not long, Sun Yuanliang's wife is seriously ill, the family's expenses suddenly increased, which gave Sun Yuanliang more pressure, under the introduction of friends, Sun Yuanliang came to a flour factory.
His wife's illness gave Sun Yuanliang the motivation to struggle, he got up early every day and worked very diligently, gradually saving some value, and soon after, his wife's illness was also cured under his careful care, and the family's stable and happy life was ahead.
Sun Yuanliang himself lived a very long life, living until the age of 103, and in his stable old age, a surprising and admirable thing happened.
The Japanese aggressors have always held a non-acknowledging and provocative attitude toward the crime of aggression against China, and have even revised textbooks and built shrines, which have seriously infringed on the feelings and rights of the people on the mainland.
When they openly opposed the outcome of the international tribunal's historical trial of aggression against China, Sun Yuanliang, who was already in his twilight years, attended the testimony with a faltering pace and provided testimony of Japan's crime of aggression against China.
The reason why this centenarian who has made great achievements on the battlefield and flourished in the shopping mall can not be separated from his open-minded and optimistic attitude.
Because of the name of the general who escaped in his early years, there were often acquaintances who would joke about him, but Sun Yuanliang did not think so, and even took this name to laugh at himself, which was really admirable.
Such a much-criticized old man is also an excellent "parent", and his education of his children is also very successful, especially his son Sun Xiangzhong is a household name.
Sun Xiangzhong is the big movie star Qin Han, who was the royal male protagonist of Qiong Yao drama when he was young, and was well known to the audience with his excellent appearance image and superb acting skills.
Some people may wonder why the father is a famous military officer and the son has become a star.
This has to mention the educational philosophy of Mr. Sun Yuanliang, who was born in Qin Han, and Sun Yuanliang did not give him too many restrictions and expectations, but let him grow freely.
And Sun Yuanliang will not have many requirements for children like ordinary parents, they are more like brothers and friends, built in a very equal relationship.
Because he was limited by the external environment in his childhood, he did not have the right to choose more careers, and now in the era of peace, Sun Yuanliang hopes that Qin Han will choose what he really likes, so that there will be no regrets after getting old.
It turns out that Sun Lao's education was very successful, Qin Han not only became a household star, but also realized his dreams, and his other children also had excellent results in all walks of life.
In 2007, Sun Yuanliang died in Taiwan.
In his life, there have been insults and slanders, there have also been admiration and applause, some people have commented that he is a running away general who runs fast, some people say that he is a heroic and fearless hero, the so-called right and wrong are in himself, and the reputation is ruined by others.
Everyone is an independent and unique individual, not composed of other people's evaluations, not gullible to believe others' evaluations, nor easy to evaluate others, right and wrong, time will give answers.
