On December 11, 1945, Chiang Kai-shek flew from Nanjing to Beiping, at this time, because of the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Chiang Kai-shek's personal reputation was at the peak of his life. The purpose of Chiang Kai-shek's visit to Beiping was not only to enjoy the glory of the admiration of all the people in the name of condolences to the compatriots in the north as the leader of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, but also to actively plan the civil war and deploy the plan of "suppressing the Communists" in North China, and at the same time to express his gratitude to the US troops stationed in Beiping and commend them for their support in assisting the Kuomintang in transporting troops to the north.
On the morning of December 13, Chiang Kai-shek, accompanied by Sun Lianzhong, chairman of Hebei Province, and Xiong Bin, mayor of Beiping, invited Lieutenant General Rocky, commander of the Third Army of the US Army, who was in Beiping at that time, to visit the Forbidden City.
Zhang Tingji, director of the General Affairs Department of the Palace Museum, who stayed in the Forbidden City in Beijing during the Anti-Japanese War and made significant contributions to the protection of the cultural relics of the Palace Museum, personally explained to Chiang Kai-shek and others.
Chiang Kai-shek and others successively visited the Taihe Palace, Wuying Palace, Qianqing Palace, Changchun Palace, Chuxiu Palace, Le Shou Hall, Nine Dragon Wall and other places, and the Forbidden City Cultural Relics Exhibition.
Chiang Kai-shek especially stood in front of Qianlong's imperial armor in detail**, and touched it with his hands, and specially asked people to take pictures of him. At this time, Chiang Kai-shek thought that he relied on his identity as the "leader of the War of Resistance Against Japan" and responded to every call, and in the near future, he could completely eliminate all the "old opponents" hidden in the ravines and ravines, and he could leave behind "ten perfect martial arts" like Emperor Qianlong and go down in history.
At this time, Chiang Kai-shek could not have imagined that he was complacent, and the advantage was in myself, and in the following 4 years, he completely lost the support of the people, and was finally driven out of the mainland, and could only be in a corner of peace, from the "leader of the Anti-Japanese War" to the "culprit of the civil war" and "* thief"!
