Defeating 800,000 elite soldiers with 600,000 is a miracle, really a miracle. Stalin once wrote this phrase on a notepad, describing a battle that he called a "miracle". This battle not only completely changed the situation of the war, but also set China's history on a completely new trajectory. Chiang Kai-shek lost the capital of his rule in this battle, and some high-ranking generals also left him, some surrendered, some rebelled, and some became "bare-bones commanders".
Among them, Huang Wei, a high-ranking prisoner of war of the Kuomintang, attracted my special attention. After Huang Wei regained his freedom, he bought a book and regarded it as a treasure and read it every night. This book is related to his past, the first half of his life, and his original beliefs.
Huang Wei was a loyal person to the Kuomintang, and as early as the Whampoa period, he followed Sun Yat-sen's "Three People's Doctrine". He has always firmly believed that in order to save China, there is no other doctrine except Mr. Sun's "Three People's Principles". Therefore, after Chiang Kai-shek came to power, Huang Wei dedicated his loyalty to him. This loyalty eventually impressed Chiang Kai-shek, who sent Huang Wei abroad to learn advanced military knowledge. Huang Wei also grew up in Chen Cheng's system, and along the way, he won Chen Cheng's trust.
However, fate often makes people feel helpless. At the critical moment of the war, Huang Wei did not complete the important task assigned to him by General Chen Cheng. His troops were eventually surrounded by the PLA and forced to surrender. This defeat was a lifelong regret for Huang Wei, and he always felt that not fulfilling the trust of General Chen Cheng was a failure in his life.
After the defeat of the Kuomintang, Huang Wei left the war criminals management center and began to face reality again. His wife waited outside for more than twenty years and never saw her husband's name appear on the amnesty list. When Huang Wei came out, he found that his wife was still waiting for him, and he felt proud in his heart, but at the same time he felt guilty. Huang Wei's wife suffered from mental illness due to years of waiting, and when Huang Wei did not have time to go to Hu Lian for a pension, she chose to commit suicide. All this made Huang Wei deeply blame and guilt.
Huang Wei's son recalled that his father had plans to visit Chiang Kai-shek before he died, because the Chiang family had promised Huang Wei 27 years of back salary. However, Huang Wei did not accept this temptation, because he felt that he used to be for cross-strait exchanges, which was a good thing, and he should not use money to make himself sorry for the Communist Party's second cultivation of himself.
Huang Wei finally devoted himself to helping the construction of New China, and made great contributions to the study of cultural and historical materials of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. His more sincere attitude and insistence on pursuing the truth of the truth made him devote himself to justifying Chen Cheng's name and refuting the claim that Chen Cheng killed Deng Yanda. This pursuit of truth also made a deep impression on him.
Huang Wei's story tells us that a person's faith and loyalty are not black and white, and that deviation may only be due to a certain reason or a choice at a particular moment. But no matter what happened in the past, in the face of reality, we should devote ourselves to helping the construction of New China and contribute our own strength to the country. Just like what Huang Wei did in the end, use actions to make up for past regrets and prove the truth with facts.
Huang Wei was a general who was once loyal to the Kuomintang, but he eventually changed his attitude in the face of reality and threw himself into the construction of New China with a pragmatic attitude. He followed his benefactor Chen Cheng and deeply understood the connotation of "Chen Cheng treats me like a mountain, and my life has been sold to the Kuomintang". He also always maintained the spirit of aligning with the truth and tried his best to correct Chen Cheng's name. Huang Wei's story is a microcosm of a man with a rough life experience who chooses to pursue truth and take positive action when faced with a turning point in life. It is stories like this that make us feel the complexity of human nature and the changes in society.
Huang Wei spent his later years in helping the construction of New China. He adhered to his loyalty and principles, and contributed his strength to the development of the country with his own efforts. Although he did not fulfill the great trust of General Chen Cheng, he worked hard to make up for his past regrets, no longer clinging to personal gains and losses, but focusing on the interests of the country and the people.
I deeply admire Huang Wei's story for maintaining his beliefs and principles in an era of political change. His efforts and persistence have brought enlightenment to our times, and each of us should stick to our beliefs and contribute our strength to the interests of the country and the people. In the process of social development and change, we should pursue the truth, make continuous progress, and promote the progress and development of society with practical actions.
Huang Wei's life has taught us that loyalty and principle are everywhere. No matter what choice we face, we should always stick to our beliefs and work hard for them. At the same time, we should also practice our beliefs with actions and contribute to the development and progress of society. No matter what kind of difficulties and setbacks we encounter, as long as we have faith in our hearts and stick to our principles, we can overcome difficulties and achieve victory.
