Title:
"Comrades-in-arms" become passers-by?Brothers face each other, Chen Geng dodged a kick and escaped for a lifetime!
It's a shocking scene: in a ditch, a bloodied general lies in the thatch, eyes closed, and looks like he has died on the battlefield. On this battlefield full of gunpowder, the moment of life and death was vividly displayed in Chen Geng.
On the morning of August 30, 1927, the August 1 Nanchang Uprising shook China and the rest of the world, and the Communist Party of China came to prominence. In the Battle of Huichang, Chen Geng was seriously wounded, but he was undaunted and led the rebel army to capture the high ground. However, in the face of the enemy's dense firepower, Chen Geng's bravery seemed insignificant. Shot in the left leg, blood pouring in, but he chose an unbelievable way to evade the enemy's search - he took off his military uniform, covered his face with blood, and lay down in a thatched ditch, feigning death.
This moment of life-and-death struggle reached its peak when the ** search team approached. Chen Geng secretly prayed for himself in his heart, however, the enemy in front of him was the 20th Division of the old Jiang Yan's Qian Dajun Division, all of whom were classmates of the Whampoa Military Academy. This is not an ordinary dilemma, but a life-and-death duel between classmates. Chen Geng understood that the vast majority of people in this unit knew him because he was a big celebrity at the Whampoa Military Academy. In just a few seconds when the enemy approached, Chen Geng quickly thought about how to get out of this predicament. He wondered if the other party had already recognized him
At the next moment, one foot kicked Chen Geng's waist, but Chen Geng's face did not change. The footsteps faded away, Chen Geng breathed a sigh of relief, a sense of exhaustion welled up in his heart, and he fainted. At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the August 1st Rebel Army** won, and the soldiers began to clean up the battlefield. A soldier gently stabbed Chen Geng with the butt of a gun, he was slightly conscious, and the soldiers hurriedly carried him onto the stretcher, and Chen Geng was able to get out of danger. However, he kept his eyes closed, and he didn't know about the savior of Whampoa.
This duel between classmates is not the only time in Chen Geng's career. Back in late November 1936, Chen Geng led the Red Army and Hu Zongnan, a fellow student of Huangpu, in a fierce battle at the mountain castle. After a day and night of fighting, Hu Zongnan was defeated, and Hu Zongnan was basically suppressed by Chen Geng all his life. During the period of the Whampoa Military Academy, Hu Zongnan clashed with Chen Geng many times due to political disagreements, and was even chased everywhere and fled. However, even after graduation, Hu Zongnan was also defeated by Chen Geng on the battlefield. In September 1946, the 1st Division and the 30th Division commanded by Hu Zongnan were outflanked by Chen Geng's pocket in the Battle of Fushan, and were finally defeated. Such hostile relations show the different positions of the graduates of the Whampoa Military Academy on the battlefield, and people can't help but wonder where the contradictions between classmates come from.
However, the awakening of the Whampoa students after the liberation is deeply gratifying. Chen Geng once met Huang Zhengcheng, a prisoner of war, in Gongdelin, and although he was captured, Chen Geng did not show hatred for Huang Pusheng. On the contrary, he communicated with the prisoners of war, laughing and sharing apples bought with a month's salary, which gave a glimpse of his deep concern for his classmates. This kind of care and understanding was especially precious in the turbulent times of the time.
Looking at the fate of the Whampoa classmates, they may have faced each other on the battlefield, but after liberation, they realized that all this was the inevitability of the country's history and for a better future. After the war, Chen Geng led the Red Army to quickly bring the cognition of his fellow Whampoa classmates in a new direction. In the merit forest, Chen Geng smiled at Huang Zhengcheng: "You use the Americans' **** to beat the Chinese, it is unpopular and doomed to failure!"It's okay if you're not convinced now, let's see!These words not only reflect Chen Geng's firm beliefs, but also accurately point out the crux of the disconnection with the country. ** Relying too much on U.S. aid, but aid supplies are difficult to penetrate the grassroots, so that most soldiers carry heavy loads, and are even forced to "exhaust themselves to death with a charge".
However, there is no trace of remorse in Chen Geng's words, and his choice stems from a sense of responsibility to the country and the people. After graduating from the Whampoa Military Academy, he did not immerse himself in personal honor, but devoted himself to the construction of the country. All this makes people think about what kind of belief the Huangpu students choose out of, whether it is a reflection on the past or an expectation for the future
After the war, the Whampoa students experienced the miracle of China's development. They witnessed the construction of bridges, factories, automobiles, and more, and felt the vigorous vitality of the Chinese people. This made them deeply aware that the mistakes of the past are unavoidable, but that China is moving towards a more prosperous and powerful future. For those who were once arrogant, this was an awakening and a unique contribution to the republic.
Therefore, the fate and choice of Huangpu students is not only a true portrayal of history, but also a microscopic manifestation of individuals in the torrent of history. This period of friendship with classmates is intertwined in the red dust years, witnessing the choices and responsibilities of a generation. They may have made all kinds of mistakes in this protracted war, but after going through the storm, their eyes are shining with confidence in the future of their country. Perhaps it is this belief that made them go from classmates to comrades-in-arms, and eventually become witnesses and strugglers for the construction of the republic.
