1913, the smoke of gunpowder cannot blow the riddles of the lanterns, and the tears of the poor cannot flow into the beautiful " Book House ", the "men" here sway, playing the piano and drinking tea.
This is a fireworks place commonly known as "Chang Santangzi". Drink tea, three silver dollars , stay overnight, three silver dollars, so it is known as "Chang San". "Study House" and "Mr." are the elegant names of these brothel women for their residence and themselves.
There are many people with high and powerful people who come to the door, and there are naturally many romantic events. Wang Lingji slapped Chiang Kai-shek in the face in the third hall of Changsan.
This matter was regarded as a scandal by Chiang Kai-shek, but it became a "glorious deed" that Wang Lingji talked about throughout his life.
Who is Wang Lingji? Why did he dare to beat Chiang Kai-shek?
and see the following decomposition.
is a beauty and beat Chiang Kai-shek angrily and Wang Lingji was born in Leshan, Sichuan in 1883. Leshan , known as Jiading in ancient times, here is the world-famous Leshan Giant Buddha , as well as a famous scholar Guo Moruo and Gongdelin's only Kuomintang general Wang Lingji. Coincidentally, when Wang Lingji was young, he studied under Guo Kaiwen, the eldest brother of Guo Moruo, but he didn't study for a long time.
Fu three generations of Wang Lingji has been from a wealthy family since childhood. His grandfather was a successful silk merchant. The Wang family's silk shop opened from Leshan to Chengdu. My grandfather hopes that my grandson can follow Guo Kaiwen to study articles and write, and be a cultural person, but Wang Lingji doesn't do it. He doesn't like to dance and write, and he yearns for military life even more.
17 years old, Wang Lingji abandoned his literature and joined the military and was admitted to Sichuan Wubei Hall to learn military skills. After graduating from Wubei Hall, Wang Lingji went to the prestigious Kyoto Military School in Japan to study.
In 1908, Wang Lingji returned to China after completing his studies and entered the Sichuan Army Quick Encyclopedia Academy as an adjutant. His main job was to serve as a translator for Japanese teachers who were responsible for teaching. Liu Xiang , Yang Sen and a group of people who later served as officers within the Kuomintang were his students.
1 Revolution , Wang Lingji swung left and right, first attacking Yuan Shikai, and then actively supporting Yuan Shikai, believing that Yuan Shikai was the "true dragon emperor" and he was willing to join his command and become a "dragon man".
It is said that in order to please Yuan Shikai, Wang Lingji also worshipped a portrait of Yuan Shikai at home. Yuan Shikai attaches great importance to the foundation and power of the Wang Lingji family in Sichuan. The two hit it off, and Wang Lingji became a celebrity in Yuan Shikai and his Beiyang government.
In just one year, he was promoted from regiment commander and brigade commander. In October 1913, the Beiyang government awarded Wang Lingji the rank of major general and lieutenant general.
During this period, Wang Lingji was in high spirits and surrounded by all kinds of flattering people. These people often invited him to go to the fireworks and willow alleys to have fun.
When Wang Lingji was in Shanghai, he entered the Changsan Hall under such a background and met Chiang Kai-shek.
In contrast, Chiang Kai-shek at that time lived in seclusion in Shanghai after the failure of the Second Revolution and was at the lowest point in his life. He entered the Changsan Hall to look for Jie Yuhua to comfort his lonely heart.
Chiang Kai-shek had an old lover here, but he was attracted by Wang Lingji on this day. When he learned that the old lover was "taken away", Chiang Kai-shek angrily found Wang Lingji's key person.
Wang Lingji, who was highly powerful and rich, naturally did not take Chiang Kai-shek seriously. He raised his hand and slapped Chiang Kai-shek in the face two centuries. Chiang Kai-shek was embarrassed and left in a mess.
Chiang Kai-shek naturally kept his mouth shut afterwards, but Wang Lingji regarded it as a "glorious deed". After Chiang Kai-shek became famous, he publicized it in private and naturally did not mention it in front of Chiang Kai-shek.
Although Chiang Kai-shek heard about it, he had no shame to ask him. After a while, Wang Lingji became a thorn in Chiang Kai-shek's heart. is a later story, so I won’t say it for now.
At that time, it was just a trivial matter, and he cared more about the military power in his hands.
1916, Yuan Shikai died suddenly, and Wang Lingji still served in the Beiyang government, and Duan Qirui won him the rank of lieutenant general.
1922, after the first direct-Feng War, there was no place for the Beiyang government to be inhabited by the royal tomb. He went to the Sichuan army to join the Yunnan warlord, Yang Sen. Two years later, after the National Revolutionary Movement began, Wang Lingji turned to the army of Liu Xiang of the Sichuan Army.
During this period, Wang Lingji held the rank of "Lieutenant General" but suffered from the lack of military power in his hands, so he could only run around and rely on his own students. Fortunately, Liu Xiang and others knew how to respect teachers and respect their principles, and always called Wang Lingji "Teacher". They respected him very much and appointed him as the commander of the 3rd Division of the 21st Army.
Relying on Liu Xiang's prestige in Sichuan, Wang Lingji committed a lot of blood debts to the unarmed patriotic people and our party's revolutionary comrades in 1927.
On March 24, 1927, in order to welcome the Northern Expedition Army into the city, the people of Nanjing gathered to celebrate, but were shelled by the warship of the US and British imperialists, killing and injured more than 2,000 people on the spot.
learned the news that our Chongqing underground party decided to unite patriots from all walks of life in Chongqing to hold a meeting to oppose British and American shootings in Nanjing. On the 31st, people from all walks of life gathered at Tongyuanmen gun dam. The conference had not yet begun, and the venue was already bloody.
Shooting and screams rang one after another. Under Liu Xiang's instruction, Wang Lingji, the 7th Division of the 21st Army, launched a bloody massacre of patriots attending the conference. This inhumane massacre lasted for three hours, with 137 people killed and more than a thousand injured, known in history as the "Three Three and One Massacre".
In 1928, Wang Lingji's student Yang Sen and Liu Xiang fought. First, Liu Xiang defeated Yang Sen, and then Yang Sen organized troops to attack Liu Xiang.
Wang Lingji saw that the situation was not good, and relied on his teacher to lobby Yang Sen and tried to persuade him to make peace. Wang Lingji was warmly received and resolutely refused by Yang Sen, and Wang Lingji returned in a disappointment.
Liu Xiang saw Yang Sen coming in full force, in order to protect himself, he decided to please Chiang Kai-shek and join the Kuomintang.
Wang Lingji, who was under Liu Xiang's command, inevitably became Chiang Kai-shek's subordinate.
For the War of Resistance Against Japan, killing deserters angrily
In 1931, Chiang Kai-shek ordered Liu Xiang's troops to launch an "encirclement and suppression" on the Red Army. In order to stabilize his sphere of influence in Sichuan, Liu Xiang refused to leave Sichuan and asked Wang Lingji to serve as the commander-in-chief of the "bandit suppression" in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River .
Wang Lingji readily agreed. Firstly, he thought soldiers should obey orders, and secondly, he looked down on "a few 'Communist bandits' holding ragged weapons."
Soon, Wang Lingji was slapped in the face by reality. His subordinate Fan Shaozeng's troops returned in a crushing defeat. Wang Lingji began to take it seriously. He adjusted his deployment and seized the Red Army's base in Honghu area.
At the end of 1932, the main force of the Red Fourth Front Army used Liu Xiang and Liu Wenhui to advance into Sichuan North when they were fighting. When Liu Xiang came to his senses, the Fourth Red Army had established a base in northern Sichuan, and Liu Xiang urgently ordered Wang Lingji to "encircle and suppress".
After a year of fierce fighting between big and small, Wang Lingji has never been able to successfully "sweep away" the Red Fourth Front Army. On this side, Liu Xiang was so angry that he was under Chiang Kai-shek's pressure, but on the other side, Wang Lingji relied on being Liu Xiang's teacher and did not have the awareness of helping students share the pressure, and still launched offensive and defensive actions slowly.
This cannot be blamed on Wang Lingji. The Red Army is good at guerrilla and surprise attacks. The Kuomintang army cannot completely "sweep" it, so they can only fight passively.
The conflict between the two broke out during the Spring Festival in 1934. During the Chinese New Year, Wang Lingji waved his hand and ordered his subordinates to gather together, so the defense was inevitably relaxed. The Red Army seized the opportunity to attack the 7th Brigade of the Kuomintang. The drunken Kuomintang officers and soldiers threw away their armor and were in a mess. The brigade commander fled with his subordinates, and the deputy brigade commander and other 900 casualties were injured and killed.
Upon hearing the news, Liu Xiang was furious and rarely scolded Wang Lingji, but Wang Lingji thought it was just a "small failure." Liu Xiang finally tore off the painted skin of "respecting teachers and respecting the way", slapped Wang Lingji, and removed him from his position.
Wang Lingji, who lost his military power, went to Shanghai with a large sum of gold and silver. He traveled to Paramount, Changsan Tang and other places, claiming to be the "官网". The so-called "官网" originally referred to the nobles of the prince who lost their title. Wang Lingji claimed that he was obviously self-reliant.
But his self-reliance of emptiness has never been as strong as the real military power. A year later, Wang Lingji took the initiative to find Liu Xiang, and the teacher and student reconciled. Liu Xiang appointed Wang Lingji as the security commander of Sichuan Province.
After the Lugou Bridge Incident, Liu Xiang volunteered to leave Sichuan to fight against Japan, and Wang Lingji stayed in Sichuan. In November 1937, Liu Xiang died of illness.
The position of chairman of Sichuan Province is vacant. Wang Ling, who is arrogant, basically thinks that with his qualifications, he can fully meet this position.
Unexpectedly, Chiang Kai-shek appointed Wang Zhangxu to attend the meeting in Sichuan Province. The reason is that Wang Zhangxu is a member of Chiang Kai-shek's direct Fuxing Society.
Wang Ling was basically incompatible with Chiang Kai-shek, and this made him even more dissatisfied with Chiang Kai-shek. Therefore, when Chiang Kai-shek ordered him to go out to fight in Sichuan, Wang Lingji was reluctant to leave. It was not until Wang Zhangxu was so kind to add all kinds of personnel and supplies that Wang Lingji organized his security team to set off.
Security regiment is not a regular army, and its combat power is limited. He suffered a crushing defeat as soon as he left Sichuan. Wang Lingji was afraid that the superiors would punish him. He encouraged the Sichuan army to post slogans, and said he would quit and go back to Sichuan to defend his hometown.
The Kuomintang is really afraid of this. Wang Lingji's boss Chen Tiaoyuan admitted that he made a mistake in command and handed over the 8th and 73rd armies of the Kuomintang to Wang Lingji for command.
In April 1939, Nanchang battle , Wang Lingji led his troops to fight fiercely with the Japanese army. He personally went to the front line to command. The two armies fought for several days without a chance of winning or losing. Guns and cannons roared, and countless casualties on both sides were killed and injured. Wang Lingji has not been asleep for many days and is exhausted. However, when he heard that a famous regiment commander under him escaped and retreated on his own, he suddenly became energetic and rushed to the scene with a gun. With a gunshot, the regiment commander fell to the ground and died.
Since then, Wang Lingji has no more deserters.
10, Changsha battle , Wang Ling base supported friendly forces to fight and won the victory. In 1940, Wang Ling made contributions to the War of Resistance Against Japan and added the rank of general to the Jin army.
In February 1941, in the Battle of Shanggao, Wang Lingji led his troops to defeat the Japanese army. This battle was also a battle for China to achieve an overwhelming victory during the War of Resistance Against Japan. After the war, Wang Lingji personally buried the sacrificed soldiers and built a temple of Martyrs for them.
is atonement. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Wang Lingji fully supported Chiang Kai-shek's anti-communist policy and implemented anti-communist as the "national policy" of the Kuomintang to the end.
During the Chongqing peace talks, he still ordered his subordinates to do their best to "sweep away" Eighth Route Army's southward detachment . Wang Lingji's move was appreciated by Chiang Kai-shek, so he was promoted to the chairman of the Jiangxi Provincial Government in the winter of 1945, becoming his dream chief official.
During his time in Jiangxi, Wang Lingji acted as a powerful man in the officialdom and regarded himself as an "elder", forcing officials with different political views to abandon their posts.
Wang Lingji plundered the people. In 1947, Jiangxi had no harvest of particles due to drought and the people were short of food. Under such circumstances, Chiang Kai-shek still ordered Wang Lingji to collect 100,000 dan of military rations within one month. Wang Lingji simply confiscated by force, and the Kuomintang soldiers held up guns and looted all the life-saving food in the people's homes.
Stepping on the bones of the people of Jiangxi, Wang Lingji was awarded by Chiang Kai-shek again. He went to Sichuan to serve as the provincial chairman. The day after taking office, he raised his gun and pointed it at the innocent students.
On April 9, 1948, Sichuan University , in conjunction with major Sichuan universities, launched a protest against the Kuomintang’s cancellation of the petition for college students to stop supplying affordable rice. The students gathered in front of the provincial government compound and shouted slogans. Wang Lingji ordered the police to beat the student with a butt, causing a bloody tragedy.
1949, the Kuomintang troops were defeated, and Sichuan general Guo Ruhuai and others sent a telegram to revolt, but Wang Lingji resisted stubbornly, clamoring for "anti-communist", while waiting for Chiang Kai-shek to give him a plane ticket to Taiwan. In the end, Wang Lingji failed to wait for the plane ticket and had to flee in a panic.
He came to his senses. Chiang Kai-shek seemed to have entrusted him with important tasks, but in fact he was just using him as a tool man. Chiang Kai-shek did not forget the two slaps from years ago.
In February 1950, the People's Liberation Army arrested Wang Lingji in Jiang'an, Sichuan and joined the Beijing Gongdelin War Criminals Management Institute. Most of the war criminals detained here were senior Kuomintang officers, and Wang Lingji had the highest rank among them.
Without the service of his adjutant and his concubine, Wang Lingji, who is in his sixties, finally had the opportunity to learn basic life skills. He tried to squeeze toothpaste and shave. As a result, he could squeeze a whole piece of toothpaste at one time, and his shaved face was covered with blood.
Du Yuming, who lives in the same cell with him, couldn't stand it, and took the initiative to shave him. Wang Lingji wrote a limerick to express his gratitude, "What's the useless general? His beard is full of cheeks. Brother Du is instinctive, and he can shave a new fetus."
Under the education of the people's government, Wang Lingji gradually realized the mistakes he made in the past and took the initiative to explain the mistakes he had made in the past and killed the revolutionaries. He took the initiative to pick up his car to Qincheng Farm in Changping, Beijing to participate in labor. The Kuomintang general sat on a small bench, squinted his eyes, held a sunflower plate, and peeled sunflower seeds one by one.
In view of Wang Lingji's contribution to the fight against Japan, in December 1964, he was pardoned and released from prison.
Experienced 14 in the iron window, Wang Lingji was reborn and freely bathed in the sunshine of New China. He lived in a sanatorium arranged for him by the government to enjoy his old age. In March 1967, Wang Lingji died of illness in Beijing at the age of 84.
Wang Lingji has made achievements in his life. In the face of the Japanese invaders, he looked at death and resolutely resisted Japan, showing the iron-for-solid determination that Chinese soldiers should have. To this end, the organization decided to place Wang Lingji's ashes in Babaoshan Revolutionary Cemetery .
won this honor, and Wang Lingji will have no regrets in his life!
