Edit | Strange things in ancient times
1958, Chiang Kai-shek joined forces with the mainland to direct a big drama and took the United States into a pit.
In the eyes of ordinary people, Chiang Kai-shek and great men have always been opponents. In fact, although Chiang Kai-shek has done a lot of bad things, he may not be against great men everywhere. On the contrary, sometimes they have a tacit understanding. For example, in 1958, the two "cooperated" and brought the Americans into the trap through a tacit understanding.
What's going on?
1. Troubled like a dog that is lost: Chiang Kai-shek seeks protection for himself and seeks protection from the United States
Chiang Kai-shek has been in panic all day since he retreated from the mainland. However, His object of panic has changed. When he just fled to the island, what Chiang Kai-shek feared most was our army's attack on the island. In fact, as early as 1950, our army did have plans to attack the island.
The general Su Yu personally led more than 500,000 troops , directly training troops along the southeast coastal areas, and fought in the Kinmen area. Although he did not win, he gained experience. After , our army was preparing for war, combined with the experience of taking islands in Kinmen Naval Battle and Hainan Island , we were preparing to directly capture Chiang Kai-shek alive.
Lao Jiang was really panicked - he knew very well that relying solely on his own strength, he would definitely not be able to stop our hundreds of thousands of troops at that time; what made Lao Jiang even more anxious was that among Chiang Kai-shek's subordinates at that time, there were actually many people who wanted to surrender. So, once the fight starts, maybe someone else will directly arrest him and give it to our army.
For this reason, Chiang Kai-shek began to crazily please the Americans.
In fact, he had a good relationship with the United States before. Because of Soong Mei-ling's , the United States also supported him before. However, because of the defeat in the civil war in , Chiang Kai-shek was very disliked by the Americans at this time; in order to obtain the protection of the United States, Chiang Kai-shek was obedient to the Americans at this time.
At that time, Americans wanted to use Sun Liren to replace Chiang Kai-shek's position. Although Chiang Kai-shek already knew some situations, , in order to win the favor of the United States, he still chose to reuse Sun Liren and let Sun Liren hold important positions. Afterwards, a Korean war broke out, and the situation suddenly reversed.
2. With the asylum of the United States, Chiang Kai-shek began to be afraid of the United States
. Because the United States wanted to use the pawn of Chiang Kai-shek, their relationship with Chiang Kai-shek suddenly became close, and even sent troops to station. Before, Americans did not get close to him, Chiang Kai-shek felt unsafe; at this time, Americans were too close to him, and he felt even more unsafe.
After the deep intervention of American military forces, his voice began to become weaker.
More importantly, Sun Liren is getting stronger and stronger, and Sun Liren is starting to not listen to his words. If he continues to develop like this, he might be withdrawn one day and then Sun Liren will come to power. Then he might be even more miserable than being captured by our army. For this reason, Chiang Kai-shek began to think of various ways.
On the one hand, he began to be tough on the United States, and removed Sun Liren from relying on the United States, and found an excuse to put Sun Liren under house arrest. On the other hand, he was also looking for an opportunity to completely get rid of Americans, or at least deter the United States, so that they could not force themselves to replace themselves.
But how can I think of such a solution? At that time, Chiang Kai-shek needed to rely on the help of Americans in all aspects. As the saying goes, he was soft-hearted and had short hands. He was so dependent on the United States at this time. Although wanted to be independent in his heart, he had no conditions.
Even if he caught Sun Liren, even if he was as tough as possible against the United States, this often only stayed on superficial phenomena. After all, he relies on the power of the United States, and the US military is still by his side; if he is a little careless, he may fall directly into the hands of the Americans. so he is struggling to find this opportunity.
3. Being willing to protect yourself and unable to resist, the Americans "send" him a solution
Just as Chiang was thinking hard, the Americans took the lead in attacking. At that time, US President Eisenhower forced Chiang Kai-shek to sign a so-called common defense treaty with him. In this treaty, it is mentioned that Chiang Kai-shek hopes to withdraw his troops from Kinmen and Mazu and .
Reasonablely, since the United States wants to use Chiang Kai-shek to cause trouble, it should be encouraged to further increase its troops, so why did it ask him to withdraw his troops here? This is actually a huge conspiracy. The reason why does this is actually for two reasons.
The first reason is to withdraw troops through this, so that the island completely loses contact with the mainland. These two places are directly connected to the mainland, which is not only a key point for Chiang Kai-shek to confront us, but also a key node for Chiang Kai-shek to contact us. Therefore, the withdrawal of troops in will directly make the people on the island become kites with broken strings.
and the second reason is against Chiang Kai-shek. At that time, the United States always wanted to control Chiang Kai-shek, especially the military power. However, in the Kinmen and Mazu areas, our army and Chiang Kai-shek would fight from time to time, so Chiang Kai-shek naturally had to hold the military power himself to deal with the "war" that could occur at any time.
If troops are withdrawn from these two places, will disappear, and the United States will have more reason to force Chiang Kai-shek to hand over the military power to "co-manage". The so-called "co-management" is naturally what makes Chiang Kai-shek stand aside.
Although Chiang Kai-shek's military command capabilities are not very good, he is also a veteran in the world. This problem is very clear. He immediately understood, Americans are trying to mess with him! Once he really withdraws troops from these two places, he will not only become a national sinner, but will also be directly undermined, and then his fate will be involuntarily independent.
However, when thinking of these two places, Chiang Kai-shek suddenly felt his heart lit up again. If the Americans hadn't reminded him, he would have almost forgotten the key to these two places. It seems that only by making good use of these two islands can recover its embarrassing situation. Chiang Kai-shek suddenly had an idea.
4. The play begins, Chiang Kai-shek creates a tense atmosphere crazily
So, he begins to make various tough remarks, which seem to be strongly "supported" from the United States, so he begins to do whatever he wants. To this end, he increased his troops to Kinmen and created a tense atmosphere nearby.
We naturally stared at Chiang Kai-shek's reaction. We were originally dissatisfied with their signing of the so-called common defense treaty, and just thought about when to fuck him hard. At this time, Chiang Kai-shek actually took the initiative to increase his troops, so of course there is no reason not to increase his troops. When the news was reported to the great man, the great man thought about it for a moment and figured out what Chiang Kai-shek meant.
So he calmly expressed his support to the people below, and he should be prepared to shell Kinmen to attack Chiang Kai-shek and the American arrogance behind him.
So, the place of quickly became hot, and the tense atmosphere was about to break out.
On August 23, 1958, our army launched a shelling attack on the opposite national military position. At this time, our firepower was no longer in the period of the Liberation War. We had our own weapon production system; while the national army was trapped in a small island, their weapons naturally could not be compared with us.
So, after one round of artillery, many national troops on the opposite side were killed and injured, and even many senior officers died in the chaos of artillery, which shocked the whole world. Whether it is the United States, the Big Brother, or the National Army below, thought we were going to launch a full-scale island-taking battle, and for a moment, the global public opinion was in an uproar.
However, when Chiang Kai-shek was having a meeting, the Kuomintang army found that he did not seem to be particularly panicked, but instead showed a trace of smile from time to time, which was rarely discovered before.
5. Jointly make a plan and bring the United States into the pit
. What? . The national army was beaten so badly. Is Chiang Kai-shek still very happy? Yes, Chiang Kai-shek was really very happy. If it weren't for the fear that the Americans would have seen through their plans, he would have laughed out loud in public at this time.
This shelling was caused by him on the initiative, not to counterattack, or anything else. His purpose is very simple, which is to create a tense atmosphere here, and then use this tense atmosphere to reject Americans with reasonable and evidence. So, he sent some scattered people to the scene, and as a result, many of these people were killed by bombing them.
All of a sudden the situation on the island became tense, and the Americans became nervous.
At this time, they were more worried about something big here because they happened to be using large-scale troops in the Middle East that year, and there was no sign of ending in a short period of time. If Chiang Kai-shek fights with us at this time, they will find it difficult to achieve both .
Chiang Kai-shek saw that the preparation was almost done, so he naturally stood up and took the initiative to increase the tension. even went to Kinmen Island to give a speech in person. The general meaning is to fight to the end, and you must never bow your head on this matter.
However, the national army has weaker forces. After our army bombed for several rounds, the troops on their island became increasingly unsuccessful. In response, the great man instructed our frontline commanders to choose the right time to rest; in fact, it was to give Chiang Kai-shek time and ask him to send more troops. When Chiang Kai-shek saw this, he was overjoyed and quickly took the time to mobilize a large number of troops.
All of the Americans were frightened by this attitude and thought we were going to launch the battle to seize the island directly.
Their battle on Middle East has not ended yet. If we seized the island here, then they would be embarrassing. Therefore, the United States had to send warships and aircraft carrier here. However, our cannons mainly attack the Chiang army, and they have nothing to do with them. They are not easy to provoke them on their own initiative, so they can only watch anxiously from the side.
At this moment, Chiang Kai-shek said to the Americans with confidence: Look, this Kinmen Matsu will definitely not withdraw his troops! As long as I withdraw my troops, they will definitely fight directly to the island.
Americans also think this is very reasonable, so they can only take it back. After
, until the formal establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States in 1979, Americans had to send a large number of troops to "protect" Chiang Kai-shek. In fact, we never thought of hitting it directly at that time. The reason why a great man did this was to help Chiang Kai-shek rescue the situation, and to avoid the fact that the island formed independence.
Once Chiang Kai-shek withdraws troops from Kinmen and Mazu, the subsequent development will be difficult to control.
so we even shelled the enemy according to the time to avoid shelling and hurting the brothers on the other side. Although the Americans felt something was wrong, they were still afraid that we would do it in real life. had to spend a lot of military expenses to come here. As a result, 21 years later, they realized that they had completely fallen into the pit. Chiang Kai-shek and the great man joined forces to cheat them.
