In 1954, Tang Enbo died tragically on the operating table, but Chiang Kai-shek reacted calmly, and it was better to die with a cold snort
In 1954, when he was pushed out of the operating room, he was pronounced dead by doctors due to excessive blood loss, but the doctors did not inform his family that the cause of death was a medical accident, and he cried out in pain at the moment of dying and finally died of exhaustion. After Chiang Kai-shek learned the news, he said lightly: "If you die, you will die", and he didn't seem to care. Surprisingly, Tang Enbo was Chiang Kai-shek's confidant "beloved general", but Chiang Kai-shek was unusually flat about his death. What kind of turmoil did Towneburg experience in his later years?
Born into poverty, he was forced to interrupt his studies because he could not afford the expensive tuition fees. However, he did not give up and sought help from Chen Yi, the principal of the army primary school at the time. Chen Yi not only agreed to let him sit in on the school, but also generously sponsored him to study abroad. In order to express his gratitude, he even changed his name from the original "Tang Keqin" to "Tang Enbo" to show his gratitude to Chen Yi for his help.
However, Chen Yi could not foresee at that time that this young man, who seemed to be grateful for the picture, would actually become the executioner who pushed him to the guillotine in the future. Although he was ostensibly highly regarded by Chen Yi, in fact he was secretly actively developing his own power and planning a "counter-revolutionary coup".
Sure enough, after Chiang Kai-shek came to power, he attached great importance to Tang Enbo and quickly promoted him to major general and brigade commander. Tang Enbo's extremely positive attitude towards "** made Chiang Kai-shek look up to him even more, and eventually promoted him to the rank of commander of the theater of operations. However, in 1944, when the Japanese army attacked Henan, Tang Enbo was helpless in the face of the Japanese army, resulting in a rout and transfer.
This defeat aroused great anger in Chiang Kai-shek, and although the responsibility should have been borne by Tang Enbo, Chiang Kai-shek put the blame on Chiang Dingwen and did not pursue Tang Enbo much. Townenburg was simply transferred, in fact, as a means of sheltering from the limelight. Chiang Kai-shek was reluctant to deal with Tang Enbo completely, after all, he was the right-hand man he had promoted.
However, the defeat had a profound impact on Towne, and he was transferred to appease public anger. After some time, the people gradually forgot about it, and Towne was promoted to commander of the Third Front.
After the outbreak of the Liberation War, Tang Enbo, as the "first pioneer", once again had the opportunity to prove himself, leading 120,000 horses to prepare for departure. However, the opponent was Su Yu, who was in peak condition at the time. Although Tang Enbo had failed many times under Su Yu, this time he did not see the situation clearly, and finally won seven battles under Su Yu.
In this battle, Tang Enbo's performance disgraced Chiang Kai-shek, and he was determined to make our army gain something next time. The opportunity soon came, and Chiang Kai-shek, in order to seize Shandong, again sent Tang Enbo to the front. However, due to his rash moves, the commander of the 74th Division, Zhang Lingfu, was surrounded by the enemy, and finally annihilated in the Battle of Menglianggu. Zhang Lingfu's sacrifice made the entire Shandong war situation precarious.
Chiang Kai-shek's anger quickly burned on Town, who relieved him of front-line command and transferred him to a new post in Nanjing. Although this was a transfer, Tang Enbo knew that if he went to Nanjing, Chiang Kai-shek would definitely be held responsible. The frightened Tang Enbo did not dare to set off for a long time, pretending to be sick for half a month before being forced to go to Nanjing.
He hoped that as long as he actively admitted his mistakes, Chiang Kai-shek might let him go. However, as soon as he entered the door, Chiang Kai-shek stood there with a displeased expression and sharply ordered Tang Enbo to kneel. Despite the humiliation, Tang Enbo did not dare to disobey, and knelt on the ground with his head bowed and silently scolded by Chiang Kai-shek. He originally thought that Chiang Kai-shek would vent for a while, but he didn't expect that the more Chiang Kai-shek scolded, the more angry he became, and he even picked up a cane and beat Tang Enbo severely. Eventually, amid Chiang Kai-shek's angry rebuke, Tang Enbo was kicked out of the living room.
He fled in a hurry, covering his wounds and not daring to see anyone along the way, knowing that the news would spread early tomorrow morning. Injury is a trivial matter, and the loss of face makes him even more painful, and the thought of other people's ridicule makes Tang Enbo uncomfortable. He complained about the "cunning" of our army, but hated Chiang Kai-shek's ruthless attitude even more deeply.
The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he became, and he even had thoughts of committing suicide in shame. However, this thought was only for a moment, and his most urgent thought now was to take revenge on Chiang Kai-shek. So, he found his mentor Chen Yi and instigated him to secretly contact our army and take the opportunity to rebel against Chiang Kai-shek.
Chen Yi studied in Japan, but joined the League when the Chinese Revolution broke out and participated in the Xinhai Revolution. Later, he became the Minister of War of the Zhejiang Governor's Office, and then went to Japan to study. After returning to China, he became a bank clerk and obtained the position of division commander by virtue of his friendship with Sun Chuanfang. I got to know Chiang Kai-shek through He Yingqin's introduction.
With the invasion of the Japanese army, Chen Yi was appointed as the chairman of Fujian Province in order to cooperate with Chiang Kai-shek's research on Japan. Although the local people were full of hatred for the Japanese army, Chiang Kai-shek ordered Chen Yi to participate in the goodwill activities of the Japanese, which aroused the spurning of the Fujianese. After returning to China, Chiang Kai-shek asked him to express his thoughts on the meeting, and Chen Yi could only express his ** to Chiang Kai-shek in silence. Chiang Kai-shek ignored it and continued to demand a policy of appeasement, indifferent to the Japanese invasion.
Chen Yi did not hold real power, and although he had the desire to resist Japan, he lacked strength. His only role was to be a scapegoat for Chiang Kai-shek's popular grievances.
When Wang Jingwei rebelled, Chen Yi could no longer bear it, publicly condemned Wang Jingwei, and made public Chiang Kai-shek's instructions to passively resist Japan. ** Chiang Kai-shek was immediately targeted, and the anger of the people against him was palpable. Chen Yi is from this**.
However, he is not completely detached from the National**. In order to preserve the way out, Chiang Kai-shek again appointed Chen Yi as the governor of Taiwan. During this period, the Kuomintang army brutalized the residents of Taiwan**, but shifted the blame to Chen Yi.
Chen Yi, who had a glimmer of hope for the Kuomintang, was completely disappointed. Under the persuasion of Tang Enbo, he decided to draw a line with Chiang Kai-shek.
At this time, he had been transferred to the chairmanship of Zhejiang, and in order to protect the local population from the flames of war, he decided to contact our army and launch an uprising. When Hu Bangxian learned the news, he immediately reported it to the organization, and our side quickly dispatched personnel to discuss the negotiation plan with Chen Yi. Under our assurance, Chen Yi's "anti-Chiang" behavior became even more obvious, arousing Chiang Kai-shek's suspicions.
Chiang Kai-shek specially summoned Chen Yi and pretended to retire to test Chen Yi's attitude. Chen Yi was deeply outraged by Chiang Kai-shek's actions, expressed strong support for his retirement, and even suggested that he take refuge abroad.
Chiang Kai-shek did not heed this "well-intentioned" advice, but was outraged. The temptation was only a small step, but Chen Yi could not wait, showing his determination to oppose Chiang Kai-shek.
According to the agreement with our army, Chen Yi released ** personnel and prepared for an uprising. However, when he found Tang Enbo, he was prevaricated by Tang Enbo, because Tang Enbo had been bought by Chiang Ching-kuo and took refuge in Chiang Kai-shek's father and son. After Hu Bangxian informed Chen Yi, he advised him to flee quickly, but Chen Yi still had doubts about Tang Enbo's loyalty.
Then, in order to show his loyalty, Tang Enbo handed over the letter written to him by Chen Yi to Chiang Ching-kuo. As a result, Chen Yi was detained and eventually killed.
Tang Enbo betrayed his mentor in exchange for Chiang Ching-kuo's false promises. However, this is only short-lived, how can a person who can betray even his own mentor be able to gain the trust of Chiang Kai-shek, an old fox?
His time in Taiwan made him feel more and more frustrated, and he had the idea of fleeing to Japan. However, Chiang Kai-shek saw through his intentions and ordered Towneberg to be pulled off the plane.
The hardships of life made Tang Enbo depressed every day, and he was soon diagnosed with liver cancer. Chiang Kai-shek approved him to go to Japan**, but unexpectedly, in Japan, he encountered unscrupulous doctors and was executed, and his death was extremely tragic. This generation of famous Kuomintang generals finally came to the end of their lives with a tragic ending, and they really deserved it.
