Veteran never die

Chapter 378

0382 Some people bathe in bloody battles, while others live in peace

There is a picture that Wang Liang will never forget.

Looking at the brothers who were seriously injured and abandoned one by one, the soldiers of the Sichuan Army who were marching at that time felt emotional and cried as they walked.

Think about it a few days ago, they left Sichuan together.

There were those who cried bitterly, and those who were filled with righteous indignation, and they couldn't help but yelled: "Damn it, throw away all the brothers, this time there is a vacancy for delicious food!"

Yes.

Throwing away so many people can save a lot of food.

In fact, the Sichuan army did not have much food.

The food that I brought with me when I left Sichuan was completely consumed within a few days.

After entering the battlefield, Chang Kaishen did not assign a depot to this non-directed army at all to provide logistical support.

From the moment the Sichuan army entered the battlefield, in addition to executing the combat orders issued by Shangfeng, the matters related to basic necessities of life needed to be solved by themselves.

How to get food and where to get food.

We can only rely on the support of the local people, but this cannot fundamentally solve the problem.

With a large number of troops, it is barely enough to make do with one or two meals.

People's homes don't have much room.

Later, after the Japanese devils learned about this situation, whenever the city was broken, they would kill anyone they saw, and they killed them cleanly.

The only source of food for the Sichuan army was cut off.

The long-distance march, without even a meal, made the officers and soldiers very hungry and exhausted.

They didn't even have the strength to dig trenches and build positions, so what was there to do to fight the Japanese devils.

Coupled with some more objective conditions, when Sichuanese came to the north, some of them were not acclimatized, and fever and cold were common.

As of now, this is not a problem.

But on the battlefield, if you get these diseases, you are basically sentenced to death.

Wang Liang said: "Yan Xishan has repeatedly accused the Sichuan Army of ineffective combat and bad military discipline in previous meetings summarizing the battle, but kept silent about the actual difficulties the Sichuan Army is facing. What is the intention behind this?"

Wang Liang was also a witness to a conflict that year.

When the Sichuan army left Sichuan in [-], they raised their own travel expenses.

Cosmetic clothes, bamboo hats and straw sandals, plus a Sichuan-made or Hanyang-made rifle are the standard equipment for soldiers of the Sichuan Army.

Most of the so-called rifles are old antiques that need to be disassembled and overhauled after two shots.

Each division is only equipped with a few mortars, not a single mountain artillery or field artillery.

Military pay?

It is something that I dare not even think about.

Wang Liang remembered that a general of the Sichuan Army said to his subordinates: "We are an anti-Japanese team, so don't mention the payment for the time being."

Well, let’s not talk about those who receive the money or not.

As soon as he arrived at the place, the order from Shangfeng came.

To stop the Japanese army.

But even an accurate map, information on the strength of the Japanese army and firepower equipment were not provided.

How to fight this battle?

In the first battle, the Sichuan army encountered continuous frantic attacks from planes, tanks and heavy artillery.

Even the shadow of the Japanese devils has not been seen yet, and the loss is more than half.

Several battles were fought one after another, and food and grass were in short supply.

In the end, they could only eat the soybeans fed to the horses to satisfy their hunger.

Holding Chang Kaishen's warrant, he went to Jiang Dingwen, chairman of the special military committee, to get equipment and change cotton clothes, but Jiang Dingwen naturally refused to admit it, and kicked the ball to Yan Xishan.

Wang Liang sneered and said, "I'll tell you what Jiang Dingwen of the Central Army was up to when the Sichuan Army was fighting bloody battles."

Abuse of power to make a fortune for the country.

Why is he so courageous?

Because he is well acquainted with Chang Kaishen's policy of "only corrupting, not deteriorating" to his subordinates.

He bent the law for personal gain, became corrupt, whoring and gambling wildly, and became a famous corrupt general.

The amount of private property accumulated through corruption, bribery, and speculation in business is shocking.

"Our National Revolutionary Army soldier has a wife and two concubines, and even forcibly usurped the famous Peking Opera actress Fen Mudan."

"The long-term promiscuity caused him to be infected with a serious venereal disease. Yang Huaitang, an expert on venereal diseases, was his personal doctor to treat his surnamed diseases. Yang Huaitang was also favored by this, and he followed Jiang Dingwen to become the chief of the military doctor and became the director of the military medical department. The laughing stock of the military."

As he said that, Wang Liang found a photo from his mobile phone and showed it: "This is the propaganda poster of Jiang Dingwen holding a beautiful woman in one hand and banknotes in the other, posted by the Japanese devils in Jiyuan County on the north bank of the Yellow River. Lively."

Wang Liang said this because he wanted to tell some people.

It is true that the Nationalist Army beat the devils and took the lead on the frontal battlefield.

But not all Nationalist soldiers are heroes.

There are many black sheep.

In April 1944, the Japanese army mobilized 4 troops to cross the Yellow River and launched the Battle of Henan, Hunan and Guangxi. ,

At that time, the Kuomintang army had reached 40 people, more than three times that of the Japanese army.

And because it is a direct-line army, the weapons and equipment it is equipped with are not bad, so it is entirely possible to win.

But at this time, the commander-in-chief Jiang Dingwen was no longer the Jiang Dingwen who had the prestige of the five tiger generals back then.

In just over a month, Jiang Dingwen lost thousands of miles.

The troops under his command retreated across the board as long as they came into contact with the Japanese army a few times.

38 cities were captured by the Japanese army, and more than 20 soldiers died.

Jiang Dingwen also took the blame and resigned from the military.

However, he has collected a lot of money and he doesn't care about these anymore. He has devoted himself to the business world and successively opened a brick factory, a steamship company, and Zhenhua Company in Xiangjiang. He also has a rubber plantation in the United States, creating a business of his own. empire.

Therefore, when praising the contribution of the Nationalist Army to the Anti-Japanese War, please remove these dogs.

They don't deserve it.

The Sichuan army who had been shut down by Jiang Dingwen had no choice but to go to Yan Xishan.

Yan Xishan was also "generous" and sent them away by giving some worn-out equipment replaced by his own Jinsui army.

Without equipment, food and grass supplies, they had to be ready to fight the Japanese army at any time.

As a last resort, the generals of the Sichuan Army had no choice but to turn a blind eye and acquiesce in their subordinates robbing Yan Xishan's arsenal.

This is why Yan Xishan always accused the Sichuan Army of being ineffective in fighting and that the military discipline was too bad in the previous meetings summarizing the battle.

Who is the bad guy?
Whose heart is dark.

Is anti-Japanese really pure anti-Japanese?
Wang Liang still has a lot to say, and he is holding back his words.

Unfortunately, the time is too short.

Anren Ancient Town, here we come.

Walk into Anren Ancient Town and witness the quaint streets.

The street houses on both sides of the strait are blue bricks and tiles, brick and wood structure, and wooden pavement, presenting the Chinese style of the manor old street architecture in the past.

Among them is the majestic Liu's mansion, with hundreds of luxurious houses, tall and spacious.

In the landscaped buildings, the houses are symmetrical, with towers, pavilions, rockery and waterside pavilions, winding paths and corridors, vines and flowers, fragrant fragrance, and quiet environment.

Wang Liang felt all this with his heart, feeling relaxed and happy, "Here I am again."
