Throughout its thousand-year history, Japan has always admired the Central Plains civilization. However, after the Meiji Restoration, the Japanese army rose rapidly, especially in the First Sino-Japanese Naval Battle, and defeated the Qing Navy.
During the ** period, the domestic warlords were fighting and the national strength was weakening day by day, and Japan took the opportunity to invade China's territory and finally launched a full-scale war of aggression against China. However, the Japanese army, which was unable to measure itself, finally tasted defeat, and the sons and daughters of China finally ushered in an era of peace, although this peace was short-lived.
Soon, Chiang ** provoked a civil war, but the people's army, which had the support of the broad masses of the people, would not lose. In just two years, the balance of victory has been tilted in favor of our army, and many ** generals followed the development of history at a critical moment and held uprisings, including some anti-Japanese heroes.
General Dong Qiwu: Born in poverty, but under the teachings of Mr. Private School, he worked hard, and by joining the army as a soldier, he was successfully admitted to the Taiyuan School Corps founded by Yan Xishan, and became a military talent in the Jin Army.
However, before graduation, due to a conflict with the people in the Military Governor's Office, he was stubborn and refused to bow his head and admit his mistakes, and was finally expelled and failed to enter the army.
He graduated from the military academy, and there are many warlords in the Central Plains, so there is always a place for him. Within two years he defected to several teams, eventually becoming a member of the National Revolutionary Army, and during the Northern Expedition he made many military exploits, and was promoted to colonel after the war.
However, Lao Chiang only trusted his own generals, and even the best junior officers, such as Dong Qiwu, were difficult to use. Dong Qiwu left the team in a fit of anger and defected to Fu Zuoyi's department.
Just as gold shines everywhere, Dong Qiwu performed well in the Central Plains War, and Fu Zuoyi's Fourth Route Army was in critical condition under the attack of Chen Cheng's troops and the defenders of Qufu, and Dong Qiwu was appointed as the captain of the death squad to cover the retreat of the main force.
Although Fu Zuoyi successfully broke through, Dong Qiwu and the death squad disappeared, and the situation is unknown. However, a month later, Dong Qiwu successfully returned to the station with his team, and Fu Zuoyi personally visited and condoled with him after hearing the news.
After this battle, Fu Zuoyi realized that Dong Qiwu was a rare general, and gradually became one of his cronies. Dong Qiwu joined Fu Zuoyi's army because he wanted to express his loyalty to Fu Zuoyi, the Bole, and had not yet had the opportunity to realize his original intention of applying for the military academy.
However, such an opportunity soon came. Since the fall of Northeast China, the Japanese army occupied large swaths of territory, but still coveted North China, and finally broke out in 1933 with the Great Wall of Resistance.
The 436th Regiment commanded by Dong Qiwu was stationed in Zhangjiakou, which was at the forefront of the fierce battle with the Japanese invaders. He adopted a three-line in-depth configuration, and the fortifications were divided into two layers, and even if the upper fortifications were destroyed by artillery fire, the surviving fighters could still transfer to the lower fortifications to continue to resist the enemy army.
This tactic successfully stopped the Japanese attack. However, on the third day, they received an order from Ho Ying-chin to withdraw their entire army to the Goryeo camp and assemble. It turned out that just when the anti-Japanese soldiers were risking their lives to fight the enemy at the front, the pro-Japanese faction of the Kuomintang signed the "Tanggu Armistice Agreement" with Japan, which was heart-wrenching.
I was depressed by the defeat three years ago, but in the Suiyuan War of Resistance, I fought a battle happily and successfully annihilated more than 2,000 Japanese puppet troops.
After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, I galloped in Suiyuan and Shanxi, dealt a heavy blow to the Japanese invaders, and effectively cooperated with several major battles of the people. After eight years of resistance to war, we have finally come to the peace we have not seen for a long time.
My anti-Japanese career began in 1933, and I have 12 years of anti-Japanese experience. Although peace was short-lived, I did not expect the civil war to come so quickly. **Although they are equipped and strong, they lack the support of hundreds of millions of ordinary people behind the PLA.
Behind the People's Liberation Army is the full support of hundreds of millions of ordinary people in the liberated areas, especially in the newly liberated areas, where our party has carried out land reform work, and the poor peasants have been allocated land, cattle and horses, and have supported this contingent from the bottom of their hearts to fight for the poor.
Under the leadership of my old superior, Fu Zuoyi, the peaceful uprising in Beiping was successful, and I began to prepare for the Suiyuan uprising, and finally led more than 40,000 people to revolt on September 19, realizing the peaceful liberation of Suiyuan.
Dong Qiwu participated in the uprising of the 23rd Corps and later became the commander of the Corps. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he led his army to the Korean battlefield, braved the danger of wanton bombing by US planes, completed the task of building an air base and air defense operations ahead of schedule, and was awarded the Order of Independence of the Second Class.
When the evaluation of the ranks of the whole army began, Dong Qiwu was rated as a general by virtue of his outstanding contributions and more than ten years of anti-Japanese career. His story tells us that no matter what his background is, as long as he has wisdom, great ambition, and love for the country, he will definitely be able to realize the value of his life and become a generation of famous anti-Japanese generals.
No matter what camp you are in, as long as you make the right choice in the face of the general interests of the nation, you will certainly be able to contribute to the construction of New China.
