什捷米科在 "General Staff in the Age of War" mentioned these words: "The commander’s wisdom and will are condensed in the commander’s determination, It also marked the entire process of military command. "Command is foresight. Outstanding commanders are highly predictable, which is an effective feature of their military talent."
Generals since ancient times represent one Military will. The generals ordered the six armies to move. During the turbulent period of the War of Resistance, there was such a person who was born as a warlord, but as a general, he resolutely ordered the army to serve the country and kill the enemy. He was still worried about the battle. He is "Sichuan King", he joined the WTO from the struggle, and escaped from the war of resistance.
1, Yifang Warlord
Eight-year war of resistance, Sichuan, as the rear of the war of resistance, made indelible contributions to the war of resistance. Since the emergence of the Sichuan Army, a large number of strong soldiers have been sent to the battlefield. even counted as according to the population at the time. On average, one out of every fourteen people in Sichuan served as a soldier. The Sichuan Army was distributed in large and small theaters at that time.
And Sichuan, from the poor and weak areas of warlord melee to the stable rear of the War of Resistance, from the separatist forces on the sidelines to the conquering Sichuan army that reports to the National Investment Corps, there is a person whose name must be mentioned. Warlord Liu Xiang. He and Liu Wenhui, the warlord at the time, were the two most powerful warlords in the melee of Sichuan warlords, and the struggle between them was the most prolonged and fierce. When he defeated Liu Wenhui to end the "two Liuzhi" , Liu Xiang , And became the most powerful warlord in Sichuan in one fell swoop.
Later, Mr. Jiang's forces infiltrated Sichuan. Under his orders, Liu Xiang encircled and suppressed the Red Army and proceeded to reorganize the Sichuan Army and reform the Sichuan government. However, due to the chaotic command of the warlords, repeated defeats were repeated. At this time, Mr. Jiang sent troops into Sichuan to help the suppression, but the power was actually divided. On the other hand, the Japanese aggression in the northeast slowly tore the camouflage. At this time, Liu Xiang also sensitively smelled the dying breath , and sent people north to discuss with Feng Yuxiang.
Before Feng’s representative, Xinya, Liu said frankly, "The principle of the War of Resistance is not my personal business, it is the business of the people of the whole country, it is what the people of the whole country desire, and it is indeed me A great opportunity to enter the national political arena . "It shows that at this time he was also called by our party's national united front, and it also paved the way for his determination to raise troops to fight the Japanese War. At this time, he has slowly changed from a warlord who is a separate party, and his eyes have already seen a more dangerous situation outside the mountain.
2.出川防战
The subsequent national warfare has become particularly anxious since the fall of the three provinces of the East. As for , a general leader , including Liu Xiang, he can no longer hold back. On the third day after the incident, Liu Xiang sent a telegram to Mr. Jiang requesting the dispatch of troops to fight the Japanese War, and at the same time, he urged the whole country to fight the war together.
Deng Xihou, Liu Wenhui and others also requested the war of resistance one after another. The resistance of the whole Sichuan Province was fierce. In the subsequent national defense meeting, faced with other people’s hesitation about sending troops, Liu Xiang He made the decision, "Anti-Japanese War, Sichuan can dispatch 300,000 troops and provide five million for the strong, provides grain if ten million stones!" His generous statement greatly boosted the morale of the participants and also promoted The determination of the National Government to resist.
Later, in the name of the director of Chuankang Appeasement Office, he published the exciting "Report to Chuankang Junci" . When the nation was in peril, he was obliged to request orders first, calling on his compatriots to unite and fight together. Moreover, under his liaison and tie-in, various provinces have gathered teams to form the anti-Japanese line.
His attitude is indeed an example of the powerful local forces. After him, the enthusiasm for the war of resistance in various places continued to rise, and the scene of the war of resistance across the country changed. After Liu Xiang was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the seventh theater, he led his army to the front. At that time, he was already 重病蠢身. Deng Hanxiang, Secretary-General of the province, once persuaded him to stay in Sichuan and guard the rear. He sighed, "I have always chanted the anti-Japanese war, but now the battle is resolved.Open, if you retreat and can't enter, wouldn't it be ridiculous to future generations. "
said again, "In the past many years of civil wars have been fought in the province, and my face is shameless. Today I am out of gunpoint, so I can take advantage of the time to serve the country and wash myself away. Dirt, how can it be safe in the rear. "言打起身, 毅然上阵Command . The army that began to leave Sichuan is backward in armaments and conditions are limited. Compared with the elite Japanese troops, it is difficult to compete in terms of military demand. However, the Sichuan Army refuses to admit defeat, so it is difficult to imagine. Perseverance and determination went on the battlefield to wipe out the enemy, and the passion for serving the country engraved in the bones also burned in the entire team from top to bottom. And this strength quickly burned across the country, as the Sichuan Army spread, for the victory of the War of Resistance I lit a blazing fire.
3. Baoguo leader
Liu Xiang commanded at the front line, the battle was fierce, and 's condition was also raging . However, he was still very concerned about the battle during the treatment at Hankou Hospital. The reporter asked. And his views on the rumored Japanese army through the German ambassador to China on the peace issue, he said, "If anyone wants to make peace, I, Liu Xiang, decided to lead 70 million compatriots and soldiers from the Sichuan army to the end! "
But then Liu Xiang's condition deteriorated rapidly, soon died with the world . Until his death, he still did not forget to leave a message in his will, "The enemy will not withdraw from the national border for one day, and the Sichuan Army for one day Vowed not to return to his hometown in order to win the final victory in the War of Resistance. "These words made the Sichuan army continue to fight, and for the ultimate victory of the revolution, they sprinkled their blood on the battlefield. They never defeated the country and served the country in their own lives.
八Over the past few years, the Sichuan Army has sent a total of 3.5 million sergeants, distributed everywhere, and many victims, and the leader behind the Sichuan Army and the Sichuan Army should also be remembered. National disasters take the lead, leave their homes to fight, and the national disasters are not removed. Don’t retreat, and repay the country with enthusiasm . This is the iron bone of Sichuan soldiers, this is a commitment to save the country.
Liu Xiang was born in a warlord, although he has also been in warlord melee, putting the people on fire and water. In spite of the danger, for the sake of national justice and national peril, we resolutely sent troops, ran around and liaised, united all parties , and commanded the war with a dismembered body. It still showed the integrity and responsibility of a soldier. It is worthy of recognition.
4. National funeral hero
In 1938, the National Government issued "State Funeral Order" and "Praise Order" in 1938 in recognition of Liu Xiang's outstanding contribution to the war, and in 1939 A grand state funeral ceremony was held for him in Chengdu in 2004. The ceremony was carried out in an orderly manner in accordance with state funeral laws and guidelines, and stipulated the solemn observation of government personnel and the suspension of entertainment activities in Sichuan and Kangxi.
The sacrificial slogans can be seen everywhere on the way of sending spirits, "Chairman Liu Gu is a faithful believer of the Three People's Principles!" ""For the state funeral of Chairman Liu, we must not forget the rear construction and fight to the end! "The war of resistance in those years has not yet ended. Under the threat of Japanese air raids, the provincial government even planned an asylum route for people from all walks of life. This legendary man of life is still his homeland forever. Under the honor of the last state funeral, quit. Political arena .
