The most distinctive feature of the Guizhou Army is that it is united, and the Rong 1st Division complements the most Guizhou soldiers, which naturally has the same harmonious atmosphere as other divisions, but there are no absolutes in the world, and of course there are examples of such incongruity.

Rong 3rd Regiment, 3rd Battalion, Battalion Commander Chen Yueyang.

Chen Yueyang and hundreds of his subordinates were transferred out of the Nanjing Military Police Battalion by the order of Zhang Zhen, the Kuomintang Lieutenant General Military Police Headquarters, and incorporated into the Rong 1st Division as honorary soldiers. Although the military police of the national army belong to the army in terms of establishment, it is actually independent of the navy, army, and air force, and it can be said that such a large-scale cross-service movement is unprecedented, and this battalion has almost been wiped out of a blank sheet of paper in terms of archives and records, which makes this matter full of mystery.

After Chen Yueyang, who was transferred from his original position, came to Rong 1st Division, many high-level real power figures greeted Commander He, and the euphemism was that the young people lacked tempering, and the fragrance of plum blossoms came from the bitter cold, so he had to experience more; Simply opened the skylight and said something bright, making it clear that Chen Yueyang just came down and went through the motions, and he will still be raised in the future.

The Kuomintang is full of mountains and factions, and it is really rare and rare for all walks of life to speak in unison. Although this Chen Yueyang is young, the city government is deep, and it is difficult for his colleagues in the Rong 1st Division to ask something from him. After a long time, I don't know where a piece of gossip came from, saying that the reason why there are so many big people to please people is not only because Chen Yueyang has a deep background. I heard that he and his gendarmerie subordinates had also made great military exploits and saved the life of General Zhang Zhizhong.

The gossip soon spread in the 8th Army, the most legendary of which was even involving Chiang Kai-shek.

It is said that Chiang Kai-shek wanted to set up a personal guard that year, and Zhang Zhen was ordered to strictly select a group of top soldiers with unique skills from the country's 2 million troops and put them into the Nanjing military police. In 1933, as the relationship between the Kuomintang and Germany became increasingly close, at the invitation of Chiang Kai-shek, Hitler secretly sent Brom, the ace instructor of the SA, to China to preside over the training of the guards. Under Brom's strict control, nearly ninety percent of the candidates were eliminated, and in the end, only 600 people remained, divided into two guard battalions, one of which was commanded by Chen Yueyang.

Under the advanced German-style weaponry, the First Guards is like a tiger with wings, and its combat effectiveness can be called the first in the country. In 1937, the Sino-Japanese War broke out, and on the battlefield south of the Yangtze River, the two sides concentrated their most elite forces. Tang Shengzhi, commander of the Nanjing garrison, once suggested that the First Guards be divided into several groups and penetrate the rear of the Japanese army by parachuting into the rear of the Japanese army to destroy the enemy's main military bases. This suggestion was rejected by Chiang Kai-shek, who was reluctant to lose any loss to the Praetorian Guard that he had single-handedly built. After the fall of Shanghai and other places, the Japanese army launched a general attack on Nanjing, and Chiang Kai-shek fled to Wuhan, and had to leave his guards in Nanjing out of consideration for the future. Subsequently, Tang Shengzhi led 100,000 Nanjing defenders to engage in street battles with the Japanese army, but the First Guards was still on standby, because no one dared to mobilize this force without Chiang Kai-shek's order.

As the situation of the war became worse and worse, the commander of the Fifth Army, Zhang Zhizhong, and his troops were surrounded by the Japanese army in Yuhuatai. This heroic unit of the Anti-Japanese War suffered heavy casualties, and even Zhang Zhizhong's guard team was exhausted. In order to save the Fifth Army, Tang Shengzhi made a desperate bet, risking being shot, and urgently transferred the troops of the two battalions of the First Guards to Yuhuatai to take over the defense.

The attack on Yuhuatai was the 6th Division of the Japanese Army's A Division, the division commander Lieutenant General Tani Shofu, plus the two wings of the 16th Division and the puppet Manchurian army, a total of more than 26,000 troops. Just as the 1st Guards and the 5th Army had finished defending at Yuhuatai, Lieutenant General Tani Shofu ordered a new wave of attacks, believing that he was only facing a group of weakened remnants of the defeated army, and that everything would soon be over. However, at this time, Yuhuatai resounded with a German-style roar. At first, the Japanese army was only stunned, but then they suffered an eternal nightmare....... 20,000 Japanese troops and 600 Chinese military policemen, each military police had to defend a position more than 20 meters long, and the battle lasted from morning to dusk, and groups of Japanese troops fell on Yuhuatai and could not move forward.

In the white-hot phase of the battle, the Japanese troops of the 6th Division and the Chinese military police fought hand-to-hand combat on the position, and the military police also fought hand-to-hand combat with guns and stabs. In the end, the 6th Division, known as the strongest brigade of the Japanese Army, left countless corpses behind and retreated in a hurry before nightfall. It is worth mentioning that during the last period of the battle, Gu Shoufu, who was in front of the front line to command, was shot in the arm by a gendarmerie sniper, and his subordinates desperately rescued him to save his life.

After the battle, the excited Tang Shengzhi hurriedly called Chiang Kai-shek to report his merits, and Chiang Kai-shek was overjoyed when he heard the news, but after learning that the First Guards had entered the battle, he was furious and scolded Tang Shengzhi bitterly, reiterating that no one was allowed to move the guards without his own warrant in the future. Under the pressure of the high-level layers, the Supreme Guard, which had just won the battle, had to evacuate Yuhuatai and return to the station.

However, this phone call allowed the Japanese spy agencies to know the location of the Supreme Guard. Late that night, the Japanese air force dispatched more than 50 bombers to carry out a frenzied bombing of the station, and nearly half of the military police were killed in their sleep. Under the death of Chen Yueyang and other guard officers, Chiang Kai-shek finally had to let go, let this group of hateful elites into the war from then on, this year, the remaining 300 people of the First Guards were sent to the southwest battlefield, in the battle of Changsha that shocked China and foreign countries, it was they who successfully attacked the temporary airfield of the Japanese army, so that the enemy lost air supremacy, and laid the foundation for the battle of Changsha to eliminate tens of thousands of Japanese invaders. After the Rong 1st Division experienced the blood spot of Kunlun Pass, Chen Yueyang and the old guard department were transferred and incorporated into the Rong 1st Division, and they never fought a big battle again, perhaps this has a great relationship with Chiang Kai-shek's mercy

...... Of course, the above are just rumors that have not been confirmed in any way.

For the officer class of the entire 8th Army, these were just after-dinner conversations and jokes. Not to mention the possibility of 600 men against 20,000 Japanese troops, there are many other flaws in this rumor...... General Zhang Zhizhong was not in Nanjing at that time, so how could he talk about being rescued by the military police? At that time, Sun Yuanliang's 88th Division was really guarding the front line of Yuhuatai, a strategic location, and the 1st and 5th Regiments of the Military Police stationed in Nanjing did participate in the defense battle, but these two regiments were mainly responsible for maintaining order and security in the city. Among them, only one battalion of military police escorted the arms to Yuhuatai outside the Zhonghua Gate, and stayed to reinforce the defenders, but only one day of the battle was killed and wounded, the Longchang Temple was captured by the Japanese army, and the Yuhuatai position was lost at noon the next day, and I never heard of a mysterious guard with a block of hundreds.
