In 1938, the Japanese army attacked from the north and south, broke through in the middle, and the Qingbai Party was crushed for thousands of miles.

The so-called north-south flank attack refers to the fact that the Northern Army Corps took Beiping and Tianjin, the Southern Corps took Modu and Jinling, the Central Army Corps landed in Qingdao, and the Japanese Army on the Third Route advanced westward in an attempt to sweep the whole of China.

At the same time, Japan's Northern Army supported a "North China Provisional Government" in North China, headed by Wang Kemin, Tang Erhe, Qi Xieyuan, Dong Kang, and others.

The Southern Army supported a "Republic of China Restoration Government" in the southeast, which was a small imperial court that governed the three provinces of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui, as well as the two large cities of Modu and Jinling, and was headed by Liang Hongzhi, Wen Zongyao, Chen Qun and others.

Some of these people may have been persecuted, but since they have become important members of hostile forces, they are all considered traitors. And the big traitor Wang David has not had time to take the stage at this time.

1938 was the most rampant year for the Japanese army, and China produced several "runaway generals". It is not easy for these "escape generals", and some people have a hard time running away.

Here I want to talk about Han Fuyu.

Han Fuyu is a native of Bazhou City, Hebei Province, and one of the "Thirteen Taibao" under Feng Yuxiang. Han Fuyu left home at the age of 19 to enter the Kanto, and later joined the barracks, and made a career as a good fighter and a fluent writer. In the Northern Expedition War, he fought all the way through the pass and beheaded the generals, and was the first Northern Expedition general to lead the army to the city of Beijing.

There is a more or less personal contradiction between Han Fuyu and Mr. Qing. Less than a few months after Han Fuyu defected to Mr. Qing, he found that the financial support that Mr. Qing had promised was almost a dead letter, so he had a premeditated plan to resist. When Han Fuyu was the chairman of Shandong Province, he repeatedly attacked Mr. Qing's cronies in Shandong, trying to squeeze Mr. Qing's power out of the land of Qilu. The Xi'an Incident, Han Fuyu sent a telegram to support Zhang Xueshan, deepening the contradiction between the two.

After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War in 37, Han Fuyu served as the deputy commander of the Fifth Theater and the commander-in-chief of the Third Army, responsible for commanding the Shandong military and undertaking the defense of the Yellow River. He rejected the Japanese plan of "autonomy of the five provinces of North China" and personally commanded on the front line, experiencing the night attack on Sangyuan Station, the bloody battle of Dezhou, the defense of Linyi, the Jiyang encounter, the battle of Tuxiao River, the battle of Jinan, and the night attack on Dawenkou.

In the winter of this year, the losses of the Korean Department were relatively large, and more than half of the three divisions of the Korean Division were lost in the bloody battle of Texas, and when the battle was imminent, Mr. Qing did not trust him, and transferred the heavy artillery brigade of the Central Army that promised to be transferred to him to the Tang Enbo Department, Han Fuyu was resentful, and in order to retain the strength of his descendants, he almost retreated without a fight, and took the initiative to give up the natural danger of Mount Tai of the Yellow River, and abandoned the Yellow River defense line that was expected to be held for several weeks within a few days.

After Han Fuyu left Jinan, Li Zongren ordered him to stay in Tai'an. Han Fuyu called back: "If Jinling is not guarded, why should Tai'an be guarded." Li received the call, and was furious again, and transferred the Han telegram to Mr. Qing, pointing out that Han Fuyu did not listen to the command. On the other hand, he secretly contacted Liu Xiang, chairman of the Sichuan provincial government, in an attempt to jointly launch an anti-Chiang movement. Han Fuyu's actions made Mr. Qing make up his mind to purge him.

On January 19, 38, the Qingbai Party formed a higher military court trial, with He Yingqin as the chief judge, Lu Zhonglin and He Cheng as the chief judge, and Jia Huanchen as the military judge. However, during the interrogation, Han Fuyu only held his head high and smiled, did not reply a word, and did not ask for forgiveness. At around 7 p.m. on the evening of the 24th, he was escorted by spies to the outside of Wuchang City and executed.

Later, Mr. Qing remembered his merits in the Central Plains War, and was persuaded by his subordinates to allow him to be buried, because Han Fuyu was a second-class general and the chairman of a province. Han Fuyu's coffin was buried in the Jigong Mountain cemetery at the junction of Henan and Hubei. In 1954, with the approval of the people's government, Han Fuyu's coffin was moved by his children to the Wan'an Cemetery in Xiangshan, Beijing, for burial.

Let's talk about the "long-legged general" Liu Zhi.

After the "Lugou Bridge" incident, Liu Zhi was appointed commander-in-chief of the Second Group Army of the First Theater, and led his troops from Kaifeng to Baoding to defend along the Pinghan Road.

With the fall of Pingjin and the arrogance of the Japanese army, they launched an offensive from Beiping and Tianjin in three directions, attacking Zhuoxian, Baoding, and Shijiazhuang along the Pinghan Line on one route, attacking Zhuoxian, Baoding, and Shijiazhuang on the other route on the Jinpu Line to the south, and taking Cangxian and Dezhou on the other route.

Liu Zhi defended Zhuozhou with the main force, guarded the good township on the Pinghan Road with Sun Lianzhong's army, defended Gu'an with Wanfulin's army, and guarded Mentougou with Sun Dian's British army, forming three lines of defense, and he himself sat in Baoding to command. In early August, Sun Lianzhong's Feng Anbang Division confronted the Japanese Riverside Brigade at Doujiadian in the southwest of Liangxiang. From August 21, the artillery fire of the two armies was fierce, but Sun's army was finally weakened due to the weakness of the army, and Liangxiang and Fangshan fell into the hands of the enemy.

At the same time, the Japanese army smuggled across the Yongding River from Gu'an, bombarded the Wanfulin position on the right flank with planes and artillery, and defeated the Wanbu in only one day and penetrated directly into Baoding. Liu Zhi panicked, led the headquarters to flee south along the Pinghan Line, fled to Shijiazhuang in one go, and handed over the military power to Shang Zhen and Huang Shaohong.

Liu Zhi fled without a fight, surrendering the land of North China to the Japanese invaders, and the people of the time gave him the nickname "Long-legged General".

However, the Chinese army still has commendable battles, such as the Battle of the Great Wall, the victory of Pingxingguan, and the bloody battle of Taierzhuang.

The Battle of Taierzhuang began on March 16, 38 and ended on April 15.

In the fierce battle, which lasted one month, about 290,000 Chinese troops and about 50,000 Japanese troops participated in the battle. The Chinese suffered more than 50,000 casualties and more than 20,000 Japanese casualties (the Japanese army reported 11,984 casualties).

The battle was commanded by generals such as Li Zongren, Bai Wormxi, Sun Lianzhong, Tang Enbo, Zhang Zizhong, Tian Zhennan, Guan Linzheng, Chi Fengcheng, and Wang Mingzhang. During the campaign, Mr. Qing went to Xuzhou three times to inspect, supervise, and deploy troops, which greatly boosted the morale of the front-line soldiers.

In this battle, Gu Ruhu did not participate in this battle because his injuries had not healed, but the performance of the Sichuan army was very heroic.

Qin Di stayed in the magic capital because of his great skill drop, and he didn't dare to directly intervene in the battle.

But he wrote a letter himself, and sent it to Mr. Qing's desk along with the economic information written by his third uncle, Qin Hanxu.

Mr. Qing read the letter and immediately took the case: "Come on, recruit Air Force Commander Zhou Zhirou!"

After a long time, Zhou Zhirou met him.

Mr. Qing handed him the letterhead: "Take a look, the Qin family ordered 70 Hawker III fighters, 80 F3F fighters, and 50 B10 bombers from the United States to donate to the country, hoping that we will train pilots and send people to receive aircraft." ”

Zhou Zhirou was taken aback: "This is a big deal! With a total of 200 planes, the Qin family is bleeding heavily!"

Mr. Qing snorted lightly: "The Qin family is not short of this little money, the key is the attitude!"
