After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, in order to launch a full-scale civil war, Chiang Kai-shek actively won over local powerhouses, including the northwest of the Ma family army. To this end, Chiang Kai-shek married his goddaughter to Ma Bufang's son, Ma Jiyuan, and personally met Ma Bufang and his son in Nanjing.
Jiang Jingguo was also present at that time. Chiang Kai-shek introduced to Ma Bufang: "This is a dog's son Ching-san." Ma Bufang was stunned, not knowing how to introduce his son to show his respect for Chiang Kai-shek. Finally, he became wise and pointed at his son and said, "This is the horse's successor of Donkeys."
This story is often regarded as a joke to mock the warlord Ma Bufang's vulgarity, but behind its is also a kind of "flattering culture" of Chiang Kai-shek and the Kuomintang reactionaries? The formation of "flattering culture" like is of course related to Chiang Kai-shek's personal preferences.

Chiang Kai-shek packaged himself as a "left general" in his early years, thus gaining the favor of Sun Yat-sen and the support of the Soviet Union, but after seizing power, he immediately changed his face, fully exposing his fascist nature. In response to this, Chiang Kai-shek made no secret of his confidants and arranged for his confidants to go to Germany and Italy to learn the fascist methods of rule. After returning to China, these people followed Chiang Kai-shek's preferences and established a large number of fascist organizations, such as the imitation of Italian Blackshirt and the Nazi German breast trousers, and followed the imitation of the German Gestapo trousers.
Revival Society emphasizes "oneism, one political party, one leader", promotes the personality cult of leader Chiang Kai-shek, and strengthens the ideological control of Chiang Kai-shek's direct descendants over military officers. The main force in implementing this "purpose" is a fierce and cruel spy. If anyone fails to comply, he may be assassinated one day. In such an atmosphere, who dares not "worship"? And those who want to make some "progress" will naturally flatter.
Kangze is a student of Huangpu Third Phase, Chiang Kai-shek's confidant, and the captain of his "Gestapo" Revival Rangers. He later admitted in Gongdelin that the Fuxing Society was a child of a complete fascist ghost to Chiang Kai-shek's womb.
From the founding of the Fuxing Society, Kang Ze used a student in Huangpu Sixth Period named Yang Zhouxi to write a book titled "The Fascism of the Three Principles of the People" (later Kang Ze changed his name to "The Revival Movement of the Three Principles of the People"), and proposed to worship the "leader" with Hitler-style rituals. After extensive publicity, a fashionable style has been formed. After the establishment of the Fuxing Society, whenever the meeting or conversation is held or even the phone is mentioned, whenever the terms "leader", "chairman", "Cheng Chiang Kai-shek" and "Cheng Kai-shek" are mentioned, they must stand and touch the heels (it was originally planned to straighten your right arm and shout long live the leader, and then cancel it).
Chiang Kai-shek and the spy leader Dai Li
We can see in many TV series that the generals of the Kuomintang, whenever Chiang Kai-shek appears, even when they are on the phone with Chiang Kai-shek, must stand straight and their heels are pounding. Moreover, the presentation of the TV series is still somewhat restrained. In fact, just like Kang Ze promoted it, when you hear nouns related to Chiang Kai-shek, you must stand up and touch the heels. Moreover, this is not limited to military generals, and politicians and even some scholars do this. We watch on TV that officials in feudal society, when speaking, mentioned the emperor, are just giving in.
In such an atmosphere, it is not uncommon for the behavior of flattering Chiang Kai-shek without any limit.
946, Chiang Kai-shek suddenly led Chen Lifu , Bai Chongxi and others to Xi'an for inspection. Hu Zongnan learned the news that in order to give his boss a good impression, the whole family moved out of the luxurious official residence and lived in an alley near Dongcangmen, Xi'an. After Jiang arrived in Xi'an, he did not hold a combat meeting or understand the situation of the frontline operations, so he insisted on going to Hu Zongnan's residence first.
Bai Chongxi was about to stop him, but when he thought of Chiang Kai-shek's means, he could only follow Chiang Kai-shek to Dongcangmen .Hu Zongnan's family greeted him respectfully. When he saw Chiang Kai-shek coming, he quickly invited him to come in. As soon as Chiang Kai-shek entered Hu Zongnan's home, he saw a large photo in the living room.
Jiang Kaishi looked carefully and showed a knowing smile on his face. He saw a small photo in a photo frame on the table. The big photo is a photo of Chiang Kai-shek with Mr. Sun, representing his moment of glory. When he was presented to Hu Zongnan, Chiang Kai-shek also wrote a signature himself. Chiang felt a light on his face and said directly: "Shoushan, remembering Three Principles of the People is good."
Turning his head, Chiang Kai-shek asked Chen Lifu: "Lifu, what is the essence of the Three Principles of the People?" Chen Lifu replied: "Three Principles of the People are composed of nationalism, civil rights and people's livelihood." Chiang Kai-shek asked Hu Zongnan again: "Shoushan, how to realize the Three Principles of the People?" Hu Zongnan quickly flattered and said: "The most important thing in realizing the Three Principles of the People is a leader, an authority and a ideology, and the most important thing is to listen to the command of the principal."
Bai Chongxi did not like Hu Zongnan at first. Seeing that Hu Zongnan did not devote his thoughts to military but to ponder Chiang Kai-shek, he was very dissatisfied and said to others in private: Hu Zongnan really knows how to flatter and act.
Later, after Hu Zongnan captured Yan'an, Chiang Kai-shek visited Yan'an in secret. Hu Zongnan also specially adapted the local singing of Chairman Mao in Yan'an, " Oriental Red ", and changed the song "Chairman Mao" to "Chairman Jiang Zheng".
"Can flattery and act" has also become the standard for Chiang Kai-shek to value generals. Therefore, there is a very strange phenomenon in the Kuomintang army. Especially military generals who can fight are basically not trusted by Chiang Kai-shek. Hu Zongnan, Liu Zhi , Chen Cheng , Gu Zhutong and other military generals are trusted and relied by Chiang Kai-shek. These people are not good at fighting, but they can all talk about war on paper. Speaking of military command, they can surging rivers and continuous. If they were in peacetime, these people would definitely be able to hold high positions without falling, but they would be defeated in the conditions of war.
Speaking of flattery, Gu Zhutong is also a "top expert". When Gu Zhutong was a child, he lived with his cousin who was blind and fortune-telling for a living. With his blind cousin, Gu Zhu learned the full set of fortune-telling terms, and memorized them thoroughly and understood them. This skill also became a magic weapon that later became famous because of his goodness in observing words and expressions. For example, Gu Zhutong saw the Japanese invaders massacre Shandong people, but respected Chiang Kai-shek's orders and did not fire a single shot or an ammunition. After the Southern Anhui Incident was exposed, Gu Zhutong was willing to take the blame for Chiang Kai-shek. During the Liaoshen Campaign, Chiang Kai-shek decided that Shenyang's main troops would send troops to western Liaoning, but the commander-in-chief of the Northeast "Suppression General" Wei Lihuang opposed this plan. Therefore, Chiang Kai-shek specially ordered the Chief of Staff Gu Zhutong and Wei Lihuang to fly to Shenyang on the same plane to supervise their implementation. In Shenyang, in order to persuade Gu Zhutong to change the order from Shenyang to send troops to support Jinzhou, Wei Lihuang specially held a banquet at home and instructed Liao Yaoxiang to propose a plan to retreat from Yingkou sea. But no matter how the two stated the reasons, Gu Zhutong said the same thing: "The president's order cannot be violated."
If you talk about the masters of flattery, it is the second-level general of the Kuomintang Army Xiong Shihui .
During Xiong Shihui's administration in Jiangxi, Chiang Kai-shek lived in an exquisite building on Baihuazhou, Nanchang City, where he could enjoy the scenery of East Lake with the window. Once, Xiong Shihuijin met Chiang Kai-shek and was walking in the corridor. When he found Chiang Kai-shek covering his nose with a handkerchief. He immediately realized that there was a strange smell in the lake. When he went back, he found Gong Xuesui, director of the Construction Department. The two came to Baihuazhou, and then inspected. After they immediately ordered Gong Xuesui to quickly rebuild the lake shore and remove sewage. Soon, the embankment of Donghu Lake was completely built with red stone, trees were planted along the coast, clear water pipelines were adjusted, and the East Lake Management Office was set up to take charge. When Chiang Kai-shek saw that the lake surface was changed, the scenery was pleasant, and he praised Xiong Shihui very much.For this matter, Nanchang City A Mo Ke wrote a couplet with his pen, which is very vivid:
First couplet: Half a lifetime of marriage and two guests, (referring to Xiong's dead wife Gu Yuyun and Xuxian Gu Zhuyun , both of them are sisters)
Second couplet: A career in the three lakes of life. (It means that Xiong Shihui was favored by Chiang Kai-shek for repairing the embankments of East Lake, South Lake and North Lake in Baihuazhou)
Xiong Shihui
During Xiong Shihui's administration in Jiangxi, he repaired Desheng Road in Nanchang City and renamed "Zhongzheng Road"; built Ganjiang Bridge , named "Zhongzheng Bridge"; renamed " Hubin Park " of Nanchang to "Jieshi Park"; named the first university founded in Jiangxi in 1939 "Zhongzheng University"; built an auditorium and named it " Zhongzheng Hall "; established a medical school and called it "Zhongzheng Medical College".
Of course, it was not Xiong Shihui's original creation, but a common phenomenon in the country at that time. Almost every city would have a "Zhongzheng Road". After the founding of New China in , these "Zhongzheng Road" "disappeared" one after another, and most of them were renamed "Jiefang Road". And in today's Taiwan region, "Zhongzheng Road" is still everywhere. When you arrive at a strange city in Taiwan, China, if you go through Zhongzheng Road and Zhongshan Road, you will know that this place should be the most lively place.
In addition to naming, Xiong Shihui also tried to create a "strange goods" and encircled the "Crown Prince" Chiang Ching-kuo to his side and flattered him. In order to cling to Soong Mei-ling , Xiong Shihui also asked his wife Gu Zhuyun to recognize Mrs. Song as her godmother. However, in terms of , Xiong Shihui is still not as trusted as Chen Cheng, Chiang Kai-shek, whom he trusts the most.
Chen Cheng learned that Chiang Kai-shek was interested in betrothing Soong Mei-ling's goddaughter to him, and immediately tried every means to divorce his first wife and become Soong Mei-ling's goddaughter. Chen Cheng was born in 1898, and Soong Mei-ling was born in 1897. The two were only one year apart, but they became a "mother-son" relationship. In fact, Soong Mei-ling's goddaughter, , Tan Xiang, , is only 9 years younger than her.
also suffered consecutive defeats in the Northeast. Xiong Shihui has since reached the bottom. Because of his "godmother", Chen Cheng was entrusted with an important task by Chiang Kai-shek after a brief "retreat". He went to Taiwan to retreat and finally became the unshakable second-in-command of Chiang Kai-shek's group.
Although flattery was so popular during the Kuomintang rule, Chiang Kai-shek never admitted it and claimed that he was "the honestest". October 1936 was Chiang Kai-shek's fiftieth birthday. In order to "self-discipline" and take the lead in practicing " New Life Sports ", he began to "avoid life" in September, left Xi'an, arrived in Luoyang, Henan Province by plane, and stayed at Luoyang Branch. As a result, he stayed in Luoyang for a full 36 days.
During his time in Luoyang, he once visited Zhongyue — Songshan . Dengfeng County The county magistrate is called Mao Rucai . He is only 31 years old, strong and energetic, but he is also a flatterer. During the two-day tour, he first supported Chiang Kai-shek's sedan chair rod up and down the mountain on the first day. On the mountain road, the sedan chair bearer walked, so he had to walk on the side of the road. The roadside was full of thorns, rocks, and the upper and trouser legs were scraped. However, he still felt that he was not dedicated enough to Chiang Kai-shek. Then, he personally carried the sedan chair for Chiang Kai-shek and became the sedan chairman. Songshan Mountain is steep and dangerous, and the sedan chair and people are not light. He has to use all his strength and is very tired. After Chiang Kai-shek left, he almost died of exhaustion and was exhausted. He lay on the bed and after half a month of resting, he gradually recovered
If Chiang Kai-shek really wanted to "avoid his life", then he should be furious for such blatant flattery, but the fact is not the case. In fact, Chiang Kai-shek did not want to avoid a long life at all, but was just a means of his playing with power.On October 31, Chiang Kai-shek's fifty birthday celebration was held at Luoyang Branch. Military and political officials of the National Government, including Yan Xishan, , Zhang Xueliang, , , Xu Yongchang, Fu Zuoyi, Liu Zhi, , Shang Zhen, Chen Cheng, Qian Dajun, , Shao Lizi, and other military and political officials of the National Government were all present to celebrate their birthdays. The faculty and staff of Luoyang Branch lined up to celebrate Jiang's birthday. The National Government Air Force dispatched 50 military aircraft to put a big word "天" over Luoyang.
In addition to the Kuomintang’s military and political leaders, Chiang Kai-shek’s 50th birthday also invited many scholars and celebrities. After drinking for three rounds, the literati present recited poems and sang praises to Chiang Kai-shek. Only the arrogant Xiong Shili couldn't stand it and picked up a pen to write a poem , "There is a shrunk gourd on his neck. If you don't spend money to buy a bamboo comb, it's hard to get lice. You have no worries in your life, bare, clean meat, and head." satirized Chiang Kai-shek.

After Chiang Kai-shek came to power, he not only monopolized the military and political power, but also recruited a group of devoted pens to establish his "great achievements" in Northern Expedition and War of Resistance. After eating and drinking, these dog-legged men shook their tails and scratched their ears and their heads. Then they thoughts were like springs and their writings were like jade. They praised Chiang Kai-shek all day long, like a big girl who was about to get married, and often made a lot of jokes, which made people laugh.
There is an article written like this:
During the Northern Expedition, it was said that when Chiang Kai-shek attacked Jiangxi, there was always a buffer period between the two armies, shouting slogans to each other to make the other party give up resistance and surrender quickly, and Chiang took advantage of this gap to take a break for a while. So he led his troops to a camp in the outskirts of Nanchang City for a short rest. Because he had been in the army and had not taken a shower for many days, Chiang Kai-shek took this opportunity to take off his military cap and uniform and go to the bathroom to wash. He was just washing happily and suddenly remembered Mr. Sun Yat-sen who died before he succeeded, and remembered the legacy of "The revolution has not been successful, and comrades still need to work hard", so he suddenly realized that at a critical juncture of the Northern Expedition, how could he leave the army without authorization and run to the rear to take a bath? So he hurriedly finished scrubbing and was about to return to the military camp immediately.
After putting on the military uniform, I found that the military cap was missing. It was bright and bright, with a guard post outside and a secretary inside. The military cap disappeared in a noble way. When his subordinates saw him, the feudal superstitious mentality immediately rose, and advised Chiang to say that the military cap is equivalent to the title of the Northern Expedition Army . The title is lost and the development is not good. Will our plan to fight Jiangxi be postponed for a few days? However, Lao Jiang didn't think so. He believed that this indicates that the battle would be won soon. Although the military cap was thrown, it meant "a celebrating each other". As expected, after the Northern Expedition Army launched an attack, the defenders were defeated soon, and the battle ended in victory.
This article established the glorious image of Chiang Kai-shek not being influenced by feudal superstition and leading troops rationally, but what is the truth is now very obvious. Other stories such as Chiang Kai-shek saw "Little Fish Going Against the Current" when he was a child, and then worked hard to become a generation of "great men". There are countless stories.
When Jiang Jingguo passed away, Taiwanese poet Yu Guangzhong wrote a poem called "Farewell":
Sad half-mast, heroic half-mast, descending for you, sad black veil, heavy black veil, worn for you, sad chrysanthemums, pure chrysanthemums, blooming for you, sad mourning hall, quiet mourning hall, worshiping for you, sad ranks, roaming ranks, sad tears, tears of gratitude flow for you, sad back, tired back, no longer look back, sad hearse, farewell hearse, slowly walking, dear friend, hard-working leader, slowly walking.
, which always believed that Yu Guangzhong had no literary integrity and denounced him as a "flattering poet", made up for this stingy poem: Sad flattery, stinky flattery, for you, sad new poems, shameless new poems, written for you, dear friend, hard-working leader, slowly walk, I can't keep up because I am your dog.
