In 1949, Ma Hongkui's defeat and Chiang Kai-shek's disappointment.
In 1949, Ma Hongkui, the king of Ningxia, was guilty of a defeat and cried to Chiang Kai-shek. Chiang Kai-shek was full of disgust and mentioned responsibility. When parting, he indifferently ordered him to go to Taiwan to recuperate, however, the trip to Taiwan was not the peace he thought.
Ningxia's Earth Emperor: Ma Hongkui's stubborn resistance.
Ma Hongkui, born in Hezhou, Gansu Province in 1892, inherited his father's power and became the chairman of Ningxia Province. On the surface, it pursued the "Three People's Principles", but in fact it oppressed the people, collected taxes with high efficiency, implemented a strict armor protection system, and conscripted a large number of soldiers, resulting in 70,000 troops in Ningxia. He ruled Ningxia for 17 years and then collapsed with the arrival of the People's Liberation Army.
Power disputes: Ma Hongkui and Ma Bufang's deceit.
In May 1949, competing with Ma Bufang for the position of military and political chief in the northwest, Ma Hongkui cried to Chiang Kai-shek in Taiwan, and Chiang Kai-shek was annoyed by him. Although he was appointed by Chiang Kai-shek, Ma Hongkui saw Chiang Kai-shek's attitude clearly. After the loss of Lanzhou, he knew that the defeat of the army was imminent, so he handed over the military and political power of Ningxia in advance and fled to Chongqing.

However, Guo Jiqiao's order gave him a cold reception, and his guns were confiscated, and he lost contact with the outside world.

Betrayed Expectations: Ma Hongkui's Humiliation in Taiwan.
Ma Hongkui, who bought a house in Taipei and was ready to start over, was betrayed by Guo Jiqiao. Gifts were thrown, the house ** line was cut, and his misjudgment of Taiwan's prospects put him in a situation from which he could not turn back.
Revelation of the ending: Ma Hongkui's trip to Taiwan.
Ma Hongkui's trip to Taiwan is not only the exile of the loser, but also the cruel revelation of political calculations and power schemes. He fell from the Emperor of Ningxia to the bottom of Taiwan, and the ups and downs of his life are embarrassing.
Comment**: This article presents in detail a relatively little-known story of Ma Hongkui in Chinese history, revealing the intricate political feuds between him and Chiang Kai-shek and Guo Jiqiao. From the article, we can see that Ma Hongkui is not an upright politician, but a figure with ambition and scheming psychology.
First of all, Ma Hongkui's reign in Ningxia showed the side of the Tu Emperor. With the slogans of "Three People's Principles" and "Eliminating Tobacco and Drug Bandits," he actually implemented a strict control policy, exploited the people, and increased the burden on the people. This style of governance is a classic example of power-centricity and neglect of the well-being of the people. Ma Hongkui wantonly conscripted soldiers for his own selfish interests, resulting in a large number of people being sent to death. The fact that he built up a huge army in Ningxia and that it collapsed when the People's Liberation Army entered also makes one wonder about his leadership and military vision.
Second, the political disputes between Ma Hongkui and Chiang Kai-shek and Guo Jiqiao made his trip to Taiwan full of twists and turns. After his defeat and retreat to Chongqing, he chose Taiwan, but he failed to do so. Chiang Kai-shek's dislike and Guo Jiqiao's calculations made him fall into a humiliating situation in Taiwan. This method of political calculation and intrigue made Ma Hongkui a victim of political struggle, and his loss and misfortune highlighted the cruel side of the political situation at that time.
In addition, the grievances between Ma Hongkui and Guo Jiqiao presented in the article give us a deeper understanding of the political intrigues and deceit during the civil war between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. Ma Hongkui had a conflict with Guo Jiqiao because of his support for Li Zongren, which eventually led to his humiliation in Taiwan. The brutality of this political struggle is not only embarrassing, but also reflects the complexity and impermanence of the political field at that time.
Overall, this essay presents readers with a little-known historical story by reconstructing historical events, profoundly revealing the personal ambitions, political calculations, and desires in the political struggles of the time. Through this history, we can better understand the complexity and uncertainty of modern Chinese history, as well as the impermanence of individual fate in political struggles.
