Chiang Kai-shek suppressed the Northern Expedition, stabilized China, expelled Japanese invaders, and defended the Three Peoples in the early years. He was a hero of a generation, but in the later period he brazenly launched a civil war for his own selfish desires, advocating pro-Americanism and not benefiting the people, so he naturally became the Chinese people Public enemy. But what is curious is that after Chiang Kai-shek died of illness in 1975, why has the coffin been buried in the ground for 46 years, but has been embalmed and placed in the Cihu Hotel? It was because of his last words before his death.
In the late Qing Dynasty, China was faced with a situation of internal and external troubles, and the people were even more frustrated. At this time, Mr. Sun Yat-sen resolutely initiated the Revolution of 1911 and established the National Government that changed the world. He used the Three People's Principles to call on the masses to resist aggression. Chiang Kai-shek relied on his superiority. The advantage of Sun Yat-sen was appointed as the president of the military academy and chief of staff of the command. However, with the death of Sun Yat-sen, the central power gradually disappeared, and China soon became chaotic again. Soon after Chiang Kai-shek established the Nanjing National Government, eliminated the warlords' melee, and ended the rule of the Beiyang warlords. Only then did Chiang Kai-shek establish his own leadership. Status, but the Western powers are not a fuel-efficient lamp. Just as they were aggressively encircling and suppressing our army, China was like a rich and oily chicken. There was no residue left by the powers. At this critical juncture, the Kuomintang led by Chiang Kai-shek appeared. He was forced to stop the civil war and unite with our party to start the anti-Japanese war. At that time, the Kuomintang was rich and equipped, and its military qualifications became the mainstay of defeating the Japanese army. The cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party was strong. The strong cooperation quickly smashed the Japanese aggression plan, and the Chinese people finally stood up from the dire straits.
However, Chiang Kai-shek’s praise has disappeared since then. Soon after the end of the War of Resistance Against Japan, he quickly launched a civil war to seize leadership, relying on the protection and help of the United States. Soon to gain the upper hand, our party was forced to start the Long March. But at this time, Chiang also made a few huge mistakes, which led to the collapse of the Kuomintang that he founded. He underestimated the revolutionary power of our party. He also ignored the feelings of the people and gradually lost popular support. So between 1946 and 1949 At that time, our party did its own thing, with a single spark to start a prairie fire, and soon won the support of the people all over the country, so that Chiang Kai-shek’s national government was defeated one after another, and finally lost his advantage of a good hand.I watched our party cross the Yangtze River and liberate all of China.
This year was the saddest year for Chiang Kai-shek. When our party crossed the Yangtze River with a swift force to overthrow the National Government, Chiang Kai-shek had to flee in embarrassment and stayed at his hometown in Xikou for the third time. On Qingming day, he Bringing a family of young and old to worship the ancestors, Chiang Kai-shek knelt on his knees, tearing down his mother's final farewell: I don't know the year and month when I left, and may my mother forgive his son for being unfilial. Then Chiang Ching-kuo helped his father to get up and began to formulate a route to the south. In December 1949, Chiang Kai-shek made his last efforts in the southwest region. However, because Liu Wenhui announced an uprising in Chengdu, Chiang Kai-shek’s last hope was exhausted, and the family could only get on the plane. Fleeing to Taiwan, never returned to the mainland in this life.

After fleeing to Taiwan, Chiang Kai-shek still did not give up the counterattack on the mainland, so he rectified the army and continued to strengthen ties with the United States, trying to use external force to rejuvenate, but with As the United States gradually intervened in the Kuomintang government and territory, Chiang Kai-shek began to realize that he wanted to get rid of the control of the United States. He resolutely opposed the creation of two Chinas against Taiwan’s independence. He advocated that China’s issues could be resolved by the Chinese people and absolutely not allowed. my country violates our country’s interests. In the mid-1950s, our party’s policy changed and proposed a peaceful solution to the Taiwan issue. In 1956, Zhang Shizhao took the great man’s letter and passed it to Chiang Kai-shek many times, suggesting that the Kuomintang and the Communist Party have peace talks, and hoped that he could return to his hometown. Soon after, Chiang Kai-shek sent Cao Juren from Hong Kong to Beijing to make secret peace talks with great men in Zhongnanhai. When Cao Juren returned to the mainland for the second time, he also went to the cemetery to sweep the tombs for Chiang Kai-shek and his sons. This fulfilled Chiang Kai-shek's unfulfilled wish and a bridge of friendship between the two sides of the strait. From this set up. The Kuomintang was expelled from the United Nations in the early 1970s, and the peaceful establishment of diplomatic relations between China and other Western countries made Chiang Kai-shek's situation drastically worsened. Only then did he feel that the time for negotiations had finally arrived. In 1975, Chiang Kai-shek put the mission of friendship in the hands of the Kuomintang veteran Chen Lifu, hoping that the mainland could shake hands and make peace regardless of previous complaints, and issued an invitation to the great man to visit Taiwan. The arrival of Chen Lifu created a new situation for cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. Unfortunately, it didn't take long for Chiang Kai-shek to pass away at an official residence in Taipei at the age of 87. After his legendary life, he never saw cross-strait peace talks and three links.
Chiang Kai-shek's death,It is undoubtedly a huge loss for the unification of the two parties. His funeral activities also kicked off the next day. In order to open up the homage and condolence activities to the people of Taiwan, Chiang Kai-shek's body was treated with embalming and temporarily parked in the memorial hall. During the period of visit, more than 500,000 people commemorated Chiang Kai-shek. , But after the event, his coffin was not immediately buried in the soil, but placed in a marble coffin in Cihu, Taoyuan County. In the early years, Chiang Kai-shek discovered that Cihu Lake was very similar to the scenery of his hometown Xikou Town, so he established the Cihu Pavilion here, hoping that one day the fallen leaves will return to their roots. It has been 46 years since Chiang Kai-shek's death, and his coffin still has not been put into the earth, because he said such a moving last word before his death: "Don't fall the coffin and bury it back to the mainland when the time is right." Chiang Kai-shek has the traditional thinking of an old Chinese. When he died in a foreign land, he still hoped to be buried in Sangyu. The coffin did not enter the soil, which is his tradition of returning home. But his last wish can only become a pity.
When he was on the mainland in his early years, Chiang Kai-shek had chosen a place of rest for himself a hundred years later. At that time, he was the president of the Kuomintang, and he often regarded himself as a believer and heir to Sun Yat-sen, hoping to sleep in Nanjing Zijin after his death. Near the mountain mausoleum, a small pavilion was also built as a mark, named Zhengqi Pavilion, and the left and right couplets read: The mighty Qi is far from the Zhonglie Pagoda, and the purple clouds cover Mount Everest. However, he did not expect that the National Government would collapse long ago in 1975, and later generations failed to fulfill his last wish to be buried in his ancestral grave. They could only miss the scenery of his hometown at Cihu Resort in Taiwan. Now that 46 years have passed, the saplings planted in Cihu have grown into towering trees, and whether Jiang Gong, who was once a half-life in the army, can return to the mainland and settle down in peace, I believe only time can answer.
