The reason why the Prime Minister can praise his country and compare it with Marshal Ye is naturally because Wu Qiujian is not an unknown person.

He is one of the 108 generals of Huangpu and is also known as the "anti-guerrilla expert behind enemy lines."

The Battle of Songhu was the first shot he ordered. Although he failed to capture the Marine Corps Command, he led the 523rd Regiment to hold his position on Tiantong'an Road in Jiangwan for more than three months without taking a step back.

The soldiers under his command were replaced when they died, and they changed two or three times.

The 523rd Regiment was so fierce that the rest of the 88th Division were even better than those.

The 524th Regiment, who was in the same brigade, was stationed in Zhabei under the leadership of the regiment commander Han Xianyuan, and also defended his troops for three months without retreating. The heroic spirit of his troops was so famous that it was Beijing and Shanghai.

"Shenbao Reporter" went to the front line for an interview, and domestic newspapers were published, and Han Xianyuan was called the "hero leader".

In the famous Sihang Warehouse Defense Battle in later generations, the hero Xie Jinyuan of the country was his deputy.

But Fang Buwei believes that Han Xianyuan is more heroic than Xie Jinyuan.

After withdrawing from the sea to Nanjing, the 524th Regiment was transferred to Yuhuatai for garrison. At the beginning of the battle, Han Xianyuan mobilized the entire regiment to swear to live and die with the position.

The result was a prophecy.

After defending the fifth place, Han Xianyuan and the entire group died heroically, and none of them survived.

Those who said this at the same time were Zhu Chi, the leader of the 528th Regiment of the 88th Division.

Zhu Chi naturally did it, and the time between the two of them was less than three hours apart.

These two, Song Yuanliang, who had been promoted to commander of the army at the time, stole and ran away, but he still led his troops to defend and retreat until the last moment of the battle.

Han Xian was only 32 years old, and Zhu Chi was only 34 years old.

In addition to these three regiments, the 88th Division also has a 527th regiment, the commander of Liao Lingqi, who is now stationed in Nanxiang.

This is also a legendary figure.

During the attack on the Marine Corps Command, Huang Meixing was killed. He was appointed as the brigade commander in the face of danger.

He gritted his teeth and personally led his subordinates to charge. When he was about to invade the army headquarters, he received a ceasefire order from the level when more than half of his troops were killed and injured and nearly 80% of the officers were killed or injured.

After a little repair, he led the 527th Regiment of the headquarters and the 528th Regiment of the Zhuchi headquarters to defend Jiangwan to Zhabei.

He also fought to the death and did not retreat until he received the retreat order from the Central Army Command that he retreated to Nanjing.

During the Nanjing Defense War, the 88th Division was ordered to defend Yuhuatai, and he was naturally among them.

However, Liao Lingqi was lucky. Both of his commanders died in battle. He led the remnants to repel the last attack of the army.

When the army saw that the other troops of the ** had begun to flee on a large scale, they thought why they didn't eat the fat that was left in their mouths, but they wanted to chew on his hard bones, so they abandoned Yuhuatai's position and turned to pursue the other troops of the ** that fled.

At this time, Liao Lingqi didn't know that the culprit of this escape was the division commander Song Yuanliang ranked third.

Liao Lingqi, Han Xianyuan, and Zhu Chi didn't know from beginning to end. The day before, Song Yuanliang ran away.

The first person who knew that Song Yuanliang fled without fighting was Wu Qiujian's 523rd Regiment.

Because he is Song Yuanliang's brother-in-law, the current saying is brother-in-law.

When Song Yuanliang fled, he specially sent someone to notify him.

As a result, the messenger rushed into the combat command room of the 523rd Regiment when he was shocked and lies. At that time, Wu Qiujian was planning a combat plan, and all the battalion commanders and company commanders were there.

When I heard this, I was furious on the spot.

When the old subordinates of the 88th Division were in the sea, they were basically beaten 70% of them, including middle and grassroots officers.

At this time, half of the battalion commanders, including soldiers, were recruited from newly incorporated local departments, such as the Northeast Army and the Northwest Army. When they heard that Song Yuanliang had run away, how could they fight?

Seeing that the general situation was gone, Wu Qiujian proposed to send Tang Shengzhi's order to retreat in the name of Song Yuanliang to the other regiments.

But no one of his subordinates agreed.

They were afraid that they would run away, and the army would return to poverty.

Not to mention delivering letters, Wu Qiujian couldn't even get out of the command room door and was tied up by his subordinates.

Fortunately, when he was running away, his subordinates did not forget him and took him away together.

It was a group of mobs who had just escaped from the position and scattered and fled their lives.

Tang Shengzhi's order to order the Nanjing defenders to retreat was spread out one day in advance.

This led to a large-scale escape...

It was later found out that Wu Qiujian was indeed enslaved by his subordinates, and at that time, he was still urging his subordinates to hold their positions and would not be too late to retreat after the command was issued.

Therefore, Wu Qiujian was not held accountable afterwards and continued to serve in Song Yuanliang's 29th Army until he retreated to Taiwan.

Later, he served as deputy chief of staff of the National Army and deputy chief of staff of the Ministry of National Defense, and lived to be 93 years old.

But Liao Lingqi is not as lucky as him.

Due to the Battle of Songhu and the Battle of Nanjing, Liao Lingqi was promoted to the commander of the 58th Division due to his merits.

The deputy division commander is Zhang Lingfu, and the commander of the war zone is Satsuki.

In September 1939, the first battle in northern Hunan was the main force. The 58th Division was the main force, and the name of this division was also launched since that time.

In September of the 1940s, during the Second Battle of Hunan, Liao Lingqi happened to take leave and go back to his hometown to get married. Zhang Lingfu took the order of Su Yue and led his troops to Changsha.

Because Zhang Lufu was greedy for merit and made a rash progress, he did not know that Satsu Yue had ordered the rest of the troops to withdraw from Changsha, and the 58th Division was almost made into dumplings by the army.

After hearing the news, Liao Lingqi rushed back to Changsha overnight and commanded the troops to break through the siege, but unexpectedly, a huge slap in his head.

In order to shirk the responsibility of abandoning the city and escaping, Xue Yue and others concealed the fact that Changsha had fallen once again, and called Liao Lingqi off for leave and left the army to get married in Ji'an, saying that he was escaping at the last minute.

Liao Lingqi was not Song Yuanliang. When he heard that he was the former subordinate of the 88th Division who escaped in the last battle, he successfully aroused the Chairman's anger. The Chairman did not ask for details at all and ordered Liao Lingqi to be shot on the spot.

He was only thirty-six years old when he died.

It was also a coincidence that Han Xianyuan and Zhu Chi were the age when they died, which happened to be Song Yuanliang's life span...

I don’t know that Zhang Lingfu was afraid that Su Yue would hold him accountable for his greed for merit and advance, causing heavy casualties in the 58th Division, or had any other thoughts, but after the Chairman’s order came down, he did not defend Liao Lingqi.

After Liao Lingqi's death, Zhang Lingfu took over as the commander of the 58th Division.

Not long after, the matter was sued by Liao Lingqi's old subordinates, and the Chairman ordered a thorough investigation.

The truth was found out that Liao Lingqi was rehabilitated and his body was reburied into the Nanyue Martyrs' Temple.

Satsuki was just scolded by the chairman.

Liao Lingqi never expected that he was lucky enough to be cheated by one of his superiors, but was unjustly killed by the latter.

I can only say that he met someone wrong.
