Chapter 240: Impeachment

In 1949, the Nationalist army retreated to Taiwan. Lin Mu's grandfather, Lin Qian, was unwilling to follow the rebels to the isolated island, so he had to come to Thailand.

His friend Li Mengbiao, who was a member of the Kuomintang Supervisory Committee at the time, had no choice but to flee to Taiwan with his family and settle in the Taoyuan area.

Angry at the political corruption and military incompetence of the Kuomintang, he wrote a letter to impeach Hu Zongnan, the military and political governor of the northwest.

The full text is as follows: This court has proposed to the government to correct the accumulation of malpractices and to cheer up in the future. According to the Executive Yuan's reply on March 9, the rectification case of the Supervision Yuan should be properly investigated and handled by the heads of the Yuan and relevant ministries and commissions, so as to revitalize discipline and reverse the decadence.

It seems that the government has already made a resolution to rectify the discipline. Looking at his measures, in addition to handing over Li Yannian to military justice, he was deeply surprised that Hu Zongnan, who had received the heaviest appointment, commanded the most troops, had been in the work for the longest time, had taken obedient measures, and had delayed the most powerful military state.

Chahu Zongnan was stationed in Shaanxi and Gansu as a division commander, and his status was not high; In order to prevent the communist rebellion and defend the northwest, the responsibility is not heavy; The military and political power is controlled by one hand, and the officers, large and small, are appointed by them, and they are not unauthorized; Guanzhong controls Yansui, Longshu, overlooking the Central Plains, if there is a building, the situation is not unwanted; In peacetime, 450,000 soldiers are raised, and there are not many troops; The new type of armed forces is one-third of the country (and the number of warehouses is especially large), and the equipment is not refined; The state did not owe the slightest amount of wages, and the local supply of grain and straw was fully lost, plus the temporary levy and levy, borrowing and borrowing, and the military supplies were not insufficient (the Ministry of National Defense, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Food, and the Field and Grain Department all have accounts to check).

In the winter and summer of the 37th year, the migrant workers were twice recruited, surrounded the Xi'an Provincial Wall, and dug a trench of 35 zhang wide and deep for 160 li.

From garrisoning the northwest to abandonment, nearly 20 years, the matter is not long. Fuhu Zongnan received such a heavy responsibility, according to such a situation, with such a military force, and was able to take measures to protect this majestic domain, not only as the Great Wall in the northwest, but also as the pillar of the country.

Unexpectedly, on May 18, 38, he gave up Xi'an and left. The motive for making them give up is that they are oppressed by superior bandits, and they make a planned retreat.

It was in the middle of the bandit spy Li Maotang, who falsely threatened, not saying that the 600,000 bandit army crossed the river to the west, that is, 300,000 people had arrived on the north bank of the Jing River.

Hu Zongnan did not observe the truth and made a plan. The local people publicly recommended the deputies, asking them not to believe the rumors, and to abandon the heavy land, because the people of Shaanxi are not completely deaf, and they have not heard of such a banditry, and they will not accept it.

At dawn on 18 May, he took the opportunity to leave the provincial wall. At 11 o'clock at noon on the 22nd, the political workers of the bandit side arrived.

Less than 1,000 bandits arrived, and it was not until early June that a wave of bandits entered, and the bandits began to spread. However, Hu Zongnan saw through the bandits at that time and launched a counterattack, which could still be extinguished, or unite the armies of Qingning and Longdong to work together and fight side by side, which was also enough to stop the fierce front.

Although Hu Zongnan should take the Qingning Army to take Guanzhong, the Qingning army has arrived at the city of Xianyang, and even urged the Hu Department to go to the area of Xuan, and the troops did not advance, so that the Qinghai cavalry, who died in the Wei River, reached a group of people, the army was defeated, and the Guanzhong area was all fallen.

Lanzhou was in a hurry, Ma Bufang's troops fought bloody and hard, calling for help day and night, but so far they did not respond, Lanzhou fell, and Ning Qing followed.

It is the loss of the northwest, although it is not the crime of Hu Zongnan alone, but Hu Zongnan bears the greatest responsibility. The government did not take responsibility for the crime, and reinstated the Sichuan-Shaanxi border area, so that Hu Zongnan was grateful and energetic, and rearranged at this time, leaning on Bashan in the south, according to the Qinling Mountains in the north, and choking the mountain area, which can still be used as the screen of Bashu.

However, the bandits' advance was in southern Shaanxi, and they were not for a long-term strategy or a plan to retreat calmly.

According to eyewitnesses, the chaotic situation was not known in advance. Shaanxi was lost, and the government entrusted the military mission in the southwest, and the last base in Xichang.

The responsibility of allocating 20 military planes to its control is so great. The situation in Sichuan is very complicated, but Hu Zongnan's request for 350,000 military rations from Sichuan in the month is not weak, so that Hu Zongnan is good at applying it, and he has already made arrangements, so that he will be completely defeated.

When the soldiers sacrificed their lives on the battlefield, the former servants followed one after another, and the military situation was extremely urgent, he flew from Chengdu to Sanya on December 22.

After the commander was gone, the armies disintegrated, or sworn enemies, or scattered, or surrendered to bandits, or captured, or led troops to fight guerrillas, and the army that had been raised for more than ten years was wiped out in one fell swoop.

Hu was overthrown, and the Sichuan army collapsed, and invaded Chengdu on December 30, and the overall situation of Sichuan was not to be done.

After Hu Zongnan arrived in Xichang, his measures were particularly obedient. The division commander Tanakata was unwilling to follow Zhao Zili to surrender to the bandits, and led his subordinates to fight for thousands of miles, from eastern Sichuan to Songpan, although there were only a few hundred casualties, but the will was strong, and the fighting strength was gained.

Later, he joined Tao Qinglin, Ren Xianfeng, Zhang Tianxia and other regimental commanders who had retreated from western Sichuan, about 3,000 people, led the attack, and on March 5, they recaptured Kangding and Luding, and stationed in Erlang Mountain and other places, thinking that it was a plan to restore Tianquan and Ya'an.

There was a telegram from the central government to encourage him. At this time, Hu Zongnan ignored Tian Zhongtian, and instead of Tao Qinglin, who had the most guns and the strongest combat effectiveness, he was promoted to division commander, but Zhang Tianxia, who was the weakest, so that Tao Qinglin's generals retreated, and the bandits took advantage of the weakness to enter Kangding, and then fell into the bandits on 25 March.

In addition, people with lofty ideals in the Chuankang area began guerrilla attacks, and asked Hu Zongnan for subsidies on the grounds that there was a shortage of bullets, but Hu Zongnan did not immediately delay the meeting, and even if he saw him, he did not say anything, so he asked him for a plan and took it as a refutation.

Although he is full of appealing power of the sheep Ren'an, he only gives ten guns, and the rest can be known. When he left, he issued a warrant and issued a gun, but he did not have it to receive it, and it was obtained by the bandits.

The guerrilla leaders Tang Shizun and Yang Ren'an were defeated and annihilated by the lack of weapons, and the mainland on the last line of the government's hope was lost, so is it not ordinary for them to delay the militarism?

In other words, Hu Zongnan's faction has the deepest concept, and all those who are not his own descendants are among the people who do not trust it, not to mention the guerrillas organized by the local people, who do not like it, and do not supplement it by indulging in warfare.

Its dispatch of troops was arbitrarily divided, so that the commanders of military divisions and brigades could not directly command. It is also said that there are many communist elements infiltrating his headquarters, and after Guhu Zong flew south to Sanya, Sheng Wen sat in Chengdu, but his headquarters actually held a meeting to discuss collective surrender.

It is also said that Hu Zongnan's department is known as 450,000 people, which is less than half, and it is airlifted to Xichang, with only two battalions, and the government pays 100,000 troops in the month.

It is also said that on the day when Hu Zongnan flew out of Xichang, at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, he summoned the local gentry and declared that he would live and die with the city, but he left at 6 o'clock.

All this, Hu Zongnan can still excuse himself, there is no way to investigate, to exempt himself, and I don't know that he can't escape responsibility, the country is paying a huge salary, and the hundreds of thousands of troops raised by Hu Zongnan are all where they are now, and the military land they have given is given up step by step, so that there is no inch of land left, and the loss of teachers and land, the facts are obvious, the people of the whole country have seen and heard about it, and He Yong asks about others.

In the battle of the former Qi and Jin Dynasty, Ping Ah Yuzi lost his halberd and got a spear, but he was ashamed, but he died in battle; In the battle between Jing and Wu, Zi Xi was outnumbered, the whole division fled, fearing that people would follow suit, and he invited himself to ambush the sword, and Chu Jun followed it to become his righteousness.

Now that Hu Zongnan's halberd is dead, he has not obtained the spear, his body has escaped, and his division has been destroyed, so he can not die and become a benevolent, and he does not listen to the mud to ask for guilt, and the government does not know what to do with it, which is puzzling.

We do not want to be bound by the ancient righteousness to bring people to justice, nor do we want to be excessively harsh. Since the defeat in Northeast China, except for Zhang Lingfu, Huang Baitao, and Li Zhongxin, who committed suicide and Taiyuan generals who died en masse, the other officials who had fallen out of the way and the generals of the army had not heard of a single person to blame, and even blamed it as an order for frustration, and they did not hear that the government had an order to punish them, that is, they were punished, but they were removed from their posts and investigated.

As a result, the loss of teachers and land, the search for each other, and the fall of the mainland, are really due to this. Those who secretly thought that Hu Zongnan, from the captain and company commander, were promoted to major generals and division commanders in a few years, and they were promoted to both military and political powers, and those who were in his hands for more than ten years were treated with special privileges by the country, and occupied a special military status, so they should be different from ordinary people.

After the defeat, there is no need to say anything, and the government should ask for a discussion, not only to thank the country, and to make the abolition of the discipline of relaxation, by me, the prestige of the government, respected by me, the people of the world, who do not take Hu Zongnan as a shame and righteousness, but do not hear that he has this.

There is no discipline in the government, and the country has no standing, just as the Executive Yuan has consulted. And the whole program and discipline are not empty words, but must be clear about merit and crime, and rewards and punishments should be fair.

The reward is not for one person, the punishment is not lenient for one person, and then the reward and punishment are known and motivated. Today, the relationship is huge, the discipline is established, the military is powerful, and the mainland can be replaced.

If the government does not punish him, how can he fly out of Xichang because of a government order? I don't know that Hu Zongnan should bear major criminal responsibility, and he is scheduled to abandon Chengdu and fly to Sanya.

The measures in Xichang are sufficient to promote the rapid death of Xichang. The facts are all there, and nothing can be denied. Will the total annihilation be acquitted?

How to motivate the morale of the army and boost morale. Will you want to preserve your talents for the sake of your talents? Talents should be preserved, and discipline must be respected.

The government does not want to counterattack the mainland, and to lay down Shenzhou in addition to the ugly ones, so why not make the discipline unstable! For the sake of the country's future, Lihe proposed impeachment in accordance with the law to enforce discipline, and whether it was appropriate to boost the military prestige or not, waiting for a referendum.

The sponsor Li Mengbiao and other 46 people attached. Legislator Jiang Yiping and 108 people made a letter to Hu Shi to fight in several provinces alone, but still obeyed the order and held Shaanxi.

It was originally planned to be reorganized, that is, to go south along the river, go straight to Wuhan Jingyi, and deal a blow to the bandits; If this strategy is carried out, the number of victories and defeats is still unknown.

It is because of the abandonment of Central China, the atmosphere of banditry overflowing, the provinces of Sichuan and Hunan provinces, the loss of famous cities, the generals of Sichuan and Yunnan, many with two, at that time Junzuo personally came to Chongqing, trying to save, the government then had an order to transfer Hu to aid Sichuan.

Hu is loyal to the country and the party, it is his nature, support the leader, especially sincere, at this time had to move the army of Jiang and Han, to the urgency of Chengdu and Chongqing, knowing that the army transferred into the mountains, it is not easy to fight for timeliness, but to rescue the government, the president of the guard is the righteousness, do not dare not throw themselves into the boom.

During this period, because of his love for the government and his loyalty to the leader, the Hu family gave up the conspiracy and moved to Shu.

The law has been respected by Guo Fenyang and Hun Alkali, and Yue Zhongwu and Wu Jue advocated loyalty, and their hearts and aspirations could not be judged by the traces of success or failure.

Tracing back to the northeast, Pingjin was in a hurry, the ministers and generals were handsome, the ministers were peaceful, the greedy and cowardly, and more treachery, so that the people were confused, the soldiers were hesitant, and Fu Zuoyi was unarmed, that is, the time.

If China does not defend it, Hunan and Jiangxi follow, the government moves again, Sichuan and Yunnan change, during which they lose their land and lose their teachers, and those who commit treason and surrender to bandits, how can there be countless people?

On the day of the boiling of the whole country, in the midst of the erosion of the mainland, the southern part of Huzong, who went to the aid of thousands of miles, was responsible for winning surprisingly, and the whole division protected the land.

To the Hu family's internal Fu Rong line, the outside should be a strong enemy, loyal and indomitable. The commander of the army division has suffered dozens of casualties, and so far there are still many people who have participated in the guerrillas, such as the chief of staff, and they are inspired by their loyalty, so they can unite with one heart, and the grass is strong, and the time is poor.

In addition to mailing this article to the Taipei Supervision Department, Li Mengbiao also mimeographed many copies of the Sanqin children who had left their hometowns from Shaanxi and came to Taiwan at that time, and Lin Qian received one copy.
