Sichuan Province played a very important role in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. In the entire Anti-Japanese War, the army dispatched in Sichuan, the number of sacrifices, and the materials contributed ranked first in the country.
In addition to the Sichuan Army, many soldiers from Sichuan have entered the Central Army. In the 14 years of the Anti-Japanese War, Sichuan never fell. Even if Japanese bombers hovered above, the people below were still producing materials to send them to the front lines.
Because of this, American experts appraised that Sichuan is the most important province in our country. As long as it is in one day, the country will not perish. However, what many people don't know is that Sichuan is actually the most rebellious province in our country's history. There have been dozens of uprisings from the Qin Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, and Sichuan has not been absent. Among them, the most influential one was Liu Bang, who occupied the land of Shu during the uprising. So why does Sichuan Province like the uprising so much? There are three main reasons.
The first point is difficult terrain. Li Bai once said that the road to Shu is difficult, and it is difficult to go to the sky. One sentence tells how dangerous the terrain of Sichuan Province is. Sichuan is mountainous, so it is difficult to conquer. This is one of the reasons why the Japanese army did not capture it from beginning to end during the war of aggression against China. Liu Bang expanded step by step at that time and went out of Hanzhong to win the world.
The second point is economic prosperity. Sichuan has been known as the land of abundance since ancient times and is a very important grain producing area in the country. Any army fighting requires a lot of materials. Once they occupy Sichuan, there is no need to worry about food and other materials.
The third point, Sichuan people are very righteous. In fact, this can be seen from the many wars that Sichuan has participated in. Before the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Sichuan was still fighting internally. However, after the formation of a national united front, all the people of Sichuan Province immediately united and united to the outside world. So when there was an army uprising in ancient times, Sichuan would start first.
