A generation of heroes Chiang Kai-shek died in Taipei in 1975, and 47 years have passed since then. His coffin has been parked in " Daxi Mausoleum " in Cihu, Taoyuan, Taiwan Province, and has not been buried until now. At that time, his death caused a lot of sensation at home and abroad.
The family also held a grand funeral for him, but what is the reason why he has not been buried until now? Moreover, when people went to worship, they found that Chiang Kai-shek's legs were very bloated, as if they were wearing many pairs of pants, which also made people feel very puzzled.
Chiang Kai-shek
Chiang Kai-shek has a very legendary life, leading the Kuomintang for decades, and he also has excellent leadership and military capabilities. During the Anti-Japanese War , the Kuomintang army resisted the Japanese invasion on the front battlefield. Although it made great contributions, it also caused irreparable losses due to decision-making mistakes.
The purpose of Chiang Kai-shek to block the Japanese army was actually drowned thousands of Japanese troops. So the most affected are the ordinary people. This incident made Chiang Kai-shek regret until his later years, but would he really feel guilty for the losses of the people if he was either bombing bridges or cities?
Chiang Kai-shek
is not! In fact, it was because he saw a dragon in the Yellow River when he was blowing up the river bank. After seeing the dragon, Chiang Kai-shek fell seriously ill, which became his biggest heart disease.
Until After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War , the Japanese army withdrew from China's land. Seeing that the domestic situation gradually stabilized, Chiang Kai-shek's political ambitions expanded again. He did not want to share the world with the Communist Party and was ready to unify China in one fell swoop. So he pretended to negotiate and actively prepared for the war. When he thought the time was ripe, he started the civil war directly.
At that time, the Communist Party was not as large as the Kuomintang in terms of military personnel and weapons and equipment, but because of the correct strategic decisions and the hearts of most of the people, it finally won the civil war and achieved the basic unification of the motherland.
Chiang Kai-shek, who was defeated, was unwilling to become a prisoner of the Communist army, and then withdrew to Taiwan with hundreds of thousands of remnants of the Kuomintang troops. After gaining the rule of Taiwan, Chiang Kai-shek gathered his army again and had always had plans to return to the mainland. However, with the continuous prosperity and development of the New China, Chiang Kai-shek's ambition to make a comeback has not been realized.
In the later War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, the soldiers of our country's Volunteer Army showed extremely high political literacy and unswerving ideals and beliefs, and finally successfully repelled the US military and won the war.
Chiang Kai-shek
After seeing such a new China, Chiang Kai-shek also realized that it would be difficult for him to make a comeback. In desperation, he could only stay on the small island of Taiwan.
After living in Taiwan for many years, Chiang Kai-shek missed his hometown more and more. As he grew older, he missed his long-dead mother more and more. Chiang Kai-shek was born in Fenghua, Zhejiang and has been from a wealthy family since childhood.
Because my family has always been a salt merchant, in the feudal era, salt trading was always poor, so the Jiang family's family's wealth was very wealthy. However, business people like scholars very much, so Chiang Kai-shek has been in a private school since he was a child, and his family has always hoped that he can become a talent.

Chiang Kai-shek has been smart since he was a child and can learn from private school classes. So he focused on other enjoyable things and soon became a famous playboy. At that time, in order to make him calm, Jiang's mother arranged an arranged marriage for him to "the parents' orders and matchmakers' words", but this marriage did not achieve Jiang's mother's original goal.
Later, after Chiang Kai-shek graduated from school, he went to Japan to study military theory, and his anti-Qing thoughts were deeply rooted in his heart. But because he was not familiar with foreign countries, Chiang Kai-shek went to a very unprofessional military school and did not really learn anything. After many twists and turns, he went to the " Zhenwu School Hall " that only opened the door for Chinese students.
It was there that he met the founding father Sun Yat-sen and joined the Tongmenghui led by him. As a result, Chiang Kai-shek officially began his own revolutionary path.
Chiang Kai-shek
After the 1911 Revolution ended, Chiang Kai-shek returned to China to participate in the activities of the Tongmenghui. At that time, Chen Qimei was his immediate superior. Chen Qimei also made an important move in history and was one of the pioneers of China's revolution, but his style of conduct was very radical. He had only one method to his political enemies, that is, to eliminate the roots.
After the demise of the Qing Dynasty, various revolutionary groups began to reward merit and prepare to divide the fruits of victory. The Tongmenghui was established the longest time and had the most revolutionary activities, so it was naturally divided into the largest one.
Week Prime Minister
But this also causes resumption and dissatisfaction with . Because during the anti-Qing process, the Restoration Association launched the most uprisings and sacrificed the most people.
But for the first time, a group that mainly operates abroad has been taken first, and the members of the Restoration Association have always felt that it is very unfair. Therefore, these opposing the Tongmenghui became Chen Qimei's targets of elimination. To capture the thief, the king is the most powerful among the opposition is Tao Chengzhang , and Chen Qimei's first one to get rid of is him.
Chiang Kai-shek and Soong Mei-ling
At that time, Chen Qimei arranged for Chiang Kai-shek to lurk in Tao Chengzhang's residence and then assassinated him. Under Chen Qimei's long-term leadership, Chiang Kai-shek's values were subtly influenced. For Chiang Kai-shek, he had only physical elimination of political enemies, and he could only understand the moral level of the revolutionary partners.
These ideas laid the groundwork for Chiang Kai-shek's later transformation.
Chiang Kai-shek
However, before the revolution was over, Mr. Sun Yat-sen passed away, and at this time the Kuomintang suddenly lost its backbone. After losing the political leader who could grasp the full-time job, the Kuomintang began to rapidly divide and divide it into two completely different factions. The two factions on both sides of the country suppressed each other until 1927, after receiving the support of Western powers, Chiang Kai-shek began a purge movement, launched a 412 counter-revolutionary coup, and began to massacre Communists. At the same time, Chiang Kai-shek further expanded the gang structure and absorbed many gangster bandits into the Kuomintang.
Since then, the Kuomintang’s grassroots deployment has been completely destroyed and has become a priority thug for implementing the white terror policy. In order to maintain his position as a political leader, Chiang Kai-shek began to manipulate power and deploy his confidants in important areas of the country, and was frantically suppressed local forces at all levels.
Chiang Kai-shek and Soong Mei-ling
During the War of Resistance Against Japan, driving the Japanese invaders out of China was the biggest goal. The Kuomintang could still maintain basic stability. However, after the War of Liberation began, several major disputes and divisions occurred within the Kuomintang, which accelerated the collapse of the Kuomintang and finally had to escape to Taiwan.
Before going to Taiwan, Chiang Kai-shek also went to visit his mother's grave. He also knew that he would not know when he would be able to come back this time, so he expressed his longing for his mother in front of the grave. Later, until his death, he was unable to return to his hometown and to his mother.

The longer he has been in Taiwan, the stronger Chiang Kai-shek's homesickness becomes, and his heart is full of guilt for his mother.In order to express his grief, he ordered people to build a tomb for his mother in Taiwan, and he would go to visit the tomb and worship in his spare time.
Time flies, and as I get older, Chiang Kai-shek's physical condition is much worse than before. In August 1969, Chiang Kai-shek's car was in a car accident and his chest was hit seriously. Although
was sent to the hospital in time, it still had great health risks and its health status was getting worse and worse. Until 1975, Chiang Kai-shek was completely bedridden.
Chiang Kai-shek
After in-depth examination, he found that his heart and lung function had serious problems and there was also a lot of water in his lungs. Such a disease could no longer support his normal work. Given that he is already very old and the risk of undergoing surgical treatment is extremely high, the expert medical team decided to adopt a conservative treatment plan.
Under such treatment, Chiang Kai-shek's health gradually improved. Later, he was discharged from the hospital and rested. Sometimes he was energetic and could take a walk in the small garden at home. But he has never been able to do his work in this way. His wife Soong Mei-ling is very anxious and hopes that he can return to the Presidential Palace to preside over the overall situation.
Chiang Kai-shek
So she contacted many foreign experts, hoping that someone could cure Chiang Kai-shek's disease. After several twists and turns, Soong Mei-ling invited an American doctor to lead a team to Taiwan for surgery on Chiang Kai-shek, and directly understood the excess water in the lungs.
Taiwan’s medical expert team does not recommend this plan, but Soong Mei-ling has decided. After the operation began, American experts first punctured his lungs and then took out a large amount of pus from his lungs, and the accumulation of water in the lungs was cleared.
Chiang Kai-shek was pushed out of the operating room, and Soong Mei-ling felt very embarrassed when she looked at him. Although the operation was quite successful, the complications came soon. Within a few hours, Chiang Kai-shek began to have a high fever.
Chiang Kai-shek
Both medical teams were in a hurry. After a series of rescue measures, they finally pulled him back from the god of death. Although the vital signs have stabilized, Chiang Kai-shek would fall into a coma from time to time. After
, Soong Mei-ling kept taking care of him in disguise. After Chiang Ching-kuo , he would come to Chiang Kai-shek's bed after his work. Every time, Chiang Kai-shek would hold Chiang Ching-kuo's hand tightly. Later, under Soong Mei-ling's careful care, Chiang Kai-shek finally woke up.
Even so, he knew that he had not had enough time, so he called Chiang Ching-kuo back and made a will in front of everyone.
The three sisters of the Song family
Apart from the planning for Taiwan's development, Chiang Kai-shek proposed to Chiang Ching-kuo that should not be buried after death. The coffin can be placed in Cixi first, and when the opportunity is ripe, he should be sent back to his hometown for burial. At this time, Chiang Kai-shek just wanted to return to his hometown after falling leaves.
After making a will, Chiang Kai-shek's condition entered a coma that was sometimes good and sometimes bad. Until April 5, 1975, Chiang Kai-shek, who had been in a coma for many days, died in Taiwan at the age of 88.
Chiang Kai-shek
The news of his death reached the Party Central Committee in a very short time. At that time, the secretary reported the matter to Chairman Mao with brisk steps and a little joy. Chairman Mao did not smile and could not see any emotional ups and downs on his face. He was silent for a while and said:
"I understand."
At this time, the news of Chiang Kai-shek's death also reached Premier Zhou, who was working. He and Chiang Kai-shek worked together for a while. 1924, Chiang Kai-shek served as the principal of Whampoa Military Academy, and Zhou Enlai went there to serve as the director of the political department. At that time, Chiang Kai-shek actively cultivated his confidant at school. After he held the power, he began to take drastic measures to eliminate dissidents.
Chiang Kai-shek
Due to different ideal goals, Zhou Enlai also stood opposite Chiang Kai-shek. After learning about Chiang Kai-shek's death, Premier Zhou was also silent for a while. Facing the reporter's questioning, Premier Zhou gave an answer:
"A clumsy tactician and a qualified strategist."
These twelve words can be said to have a concise interpretation of Chiang Kai-shek's life. In terms of war, Chiang Kai-shek had outstanding abilities; in terms of manipulating power, he was also very skilled; but he only had power but no people in his heart. For this reason, the development of the Kuomintang became increasingly biased, and in the end it was also the result of scattered and scattered residence.
Chiang Kai-shek
After Chiang Kai-shek passed away, he could not be buried according to his will. In order to preserve the body forever, the staff proposed to treat the body with anti-corrosion. After the proposal of
was strongly opposed by Soong Mei-ling, she admitted that This is an insult to the deceased and a great disrespect. But if this is not the case, the body can only be stored for a few months at most, and it will not be possible to wait until Fenghua is buried. After a long discussion, Soong Mei-ling had no choice but to agree to deal with the body in this way.
staff injected a lot of formalin into Chiang Kai-shek's body, which can allow him to keep it for a while. Then, the Jiang family held a huge funeral for him. At that time, there were 200,000 dark yellow chrysanthemums on his funeral hearse, and the number of hearse reached 99.
Chairman Mao
Later, Chiang Kai-shek's body was placed in Taoyuan, Taiwan Province The scenery here is very similar to Chiang Kai-shek's hometown Fenghua. He always wanted to return to his hometown and miss his deceased mother, but because of objective factors, he had to temporarily place his body in a place similar to his hometown to comfort his homesickness.
On the funeral, people from different regions in Taiwan rushed to worship. People quickly discovered something wrong, that is, his lower body looked very bloated. After careful observation, someone found that he was wearing seven pairs of pants. Everyone didn't understand what it meant.
In fact, this is also the custom of his hometown. People must be buried in seven pairs of pants a hundred years later. It can be seen that although Chiang Kai-shek Although he has always been in Taiwan, he always cares about his hometown. At this point, Chiang Kai-shek did not follow the customs of his hometown, but continued to follow the customs of his hometown, which shows how much he wanted to return to his hometown.
Premier 1 Weekly
Now, Chiang Kai-shek's coffin is still placed in the "Daxi Mausoleum" in Cihu, Taoyuan City, and has not been able to be buried until now. Because his only wish is to return to his hometown and be buried on the land of his hometown.
A controversial historical figure like Chiang Kai-shek has gained a lot and lost a lot. At the end of his life, he just wanted to go home and want to return to his roots.
