After graduation, he re-entered the sixth phase of Baoding Military Academy, with Zhang Fakui, Li Hanhun, Wu Yizhi and Deng as classmates.
19 18 In June, Xue Yue went south to Guangdong, where he joined Sun Yat-sen's revolutionary army, assisted the Fujian-Guangdong army, served as the captain's staff officer of the General Command, entered Fujian with the army, and captured more than 20 counties with Zhangzhou as the center. 1September, 920, Cen Chunxuan led his army back to Guangdong to crusade against Gui Jun. At that time, Deng Keng (Zhong Yuan), the chief of staff of the Guangdong Army, was also the division commander, and Xue Yue was appointed as the company commander of the machine gun. In the second year, the machine gun company was expanded into a battalion, and Xue Yue was promoted to battalion commander.
192 1 In May, Sun Yat-sen took office as a very big president in Guangzhou, and Deng Keng was ordered to form a guard regiment for the grand presidential palace, headed by Chen Keyu, chief of staff of the first division, and Xue Yue, Ye Ting and Zhang Fakui were battalion commanders of the first, second and third battalions respectively. In August of that year, Sun Yat-sen returned to Xijiang and set up the Northern Expeditionary Army base camp. Xue Yue was appointed as the guard of the Presidential Palace in Sun Wen.
1922 In March, Chen Jiongming, commander-in-chief of the Guangdong Army, sabotaged the revolution and stabbed Deng Keng to death, and the rebellion gradually became clear. In April, Xue Yue escorted Sun Yat-sen back to Guangdong and established a base camp in Shaoguan. In early June, he also escorted Sun Yat-sen and his wife Soong Ching Ling back to Guangzhou from Shaoguan. 16 In the early morning of June 30th, Chen Jiongming openly defected, causing Ye Ju, Hong and other departments to besiege Yuexiu Building and Presidential Palace. The Ye Ting battalion of the Guard Corps stood by the front door of the presidential palace, while Xue Yue and his men stood by the back door, repelling the rebel attacks many times. The rebels cut off water and electricity in an attempt to trap the Revolutionary Guard. The fighting lasted for more than 10 hours, and the guards protected Soong Ching Ling from breaking through. Ye Ting's whole battalion opened the way ahead, and Xue Yue led the machine gun battalion behind the house, braved the bullets and sent Mrs. Sun to the stone house where Zhong Rongguang, president of Lingnan University, lived. Just before the incident, Sun Yat-sen boarded the Yongfeng ship.
After the guards dispersed, Xue Yue boarded the Pearl River Yongfeng warship with some guards and continued to guard beside Sun Yat-sen. Soon, under the orders of Sun Yat-sen, Lin Zhiming and others secretly sneaked into Wuzhou, Guangxi, demanding counter-insurgency. Just as the Xu Chongzhi Division of the Guangdong Army was blocked, it was forced to go to Fuzhou, and military operations were suspended. Xue Yue secretly took the "Daming" ship to Hong Kong, turned to Shanghai, and reported to Sun Yat-sen about the conscription in Guangxi.
1924, Chiang Kai-shek led a crusade against Chen Jiongming, and Xue Yue was appointed as the adjutant and chief of staff of the first division of Guangdong Army. In February of the following year, he served as the deputy commander of the First Army 14 Division and the head of the 14 regiment. In the second crusade, he often won more with less. Because of his remarkable achievements, he was praised by Chiang Kai-shek. Northern Expedition (1926- 1927)
1In July, 926, the National Revolutionary Army pledged to the Northern Expedition, with Xue Yue's First and Second Divisions as the general reserve, and together with the marked army, they carried out the combat mission to capture Jiangxi, and together with Commander-in-Chief Chiang Kai-shek, they served as the main force of the Northern Expedition. In early September, from Changsha to Liuyang, it launched an attack on Sun's camp in Jiangxi. The offensive and defensive war in Nanchang was the most tragic battle between the Northern Expeditionary Army and Sun Jun. The city wall was recovered twice, and the revolutionary army was defeated and suffered great setbacks. Only the first division and the third regiment led by Xue Yue always fought bravely. On June 3, 1926, 10, Chiang Kai-shek called officers and men of the whole division to lecture and encouraged them to follow the example of the third regiment. Chiang Kai-shek reviewed the reasons for his defeat in combat, and the inaccurate map was the main reason. This is a great lesson for Xue Yue. After more than 20 years, Xue Yue paid more attention to studying the actual geographical environment and maps.
The whole territory of Jiangxi was cleared, the revolutionary army was ready to go to Shanghai and Hangzhou, and the battle sequence was redeployed. The first division of the First Army was commanded by He Dong, and the former enemy commander in chief was Bai Chongxi. In mid-February, 65438, Xue Yue was promoted to the position of the first division commander and led his troops eastward.
Because Zhejiang military and political personnel tend to the national government, the revolutionary army is progressing smoothly and rapidly. On February 1926, Hangzhou was recovered, and then the armies jointly attacked Shanghai and Nanjing. Xue Yue led the first division from Hangchow to Jiaxing. In order to facilitate the army's activities in the criss-crossing area of lakes, marshes and rivers, Xue Yue obtained the cooperation of the leaders of the Green Red Gang, and at the same time informed his disciples to set up temporary bridges to facilitate the March. So in a short time, I went straight to Minhang and attacked Shanghai with friendly troops. On March 20, Shanghai was recovered.
Agrarian revolutionary war (1927- 1937)
After the failure of the "August 1st" Nanchang Uprising, He Long, Zhu De, Ye Ting and others led the Rebel Army south to Guangdong and stationed in Chaomei area. Xue Yuefeng Li ordered the new Second Division to go to Jieyang and Puning quickly to cooperate with Chen and Xu Jingtang to launch a fierce battle with the Tangkeng Rebel Army. The four regiments he commanded were all defeated, the division was surrounded, and the whole division was about to fall. At this time, Ye Ting battalion commander Ou Zhen defected to the revolution, defected to the front. He seized this opportunity and fought back with the cooperation of Deng Longguang who came to reinforce. The rebels were outnumbered, ran out of ammunition and were forced to retreat.
As soon as the battle of Tangkeng was over, Xue Yue immediately led the secret service company to travel light, quickly occupied the downtown area of Shantou, and no other troops were allowed to enter Shantou. All ministries and commissions should arrange their relatives and friends to take charge of various allowances and wages.
1926 165438+1October16, Zhang Fakui and Huang Qixiang staged a coup in Guangzhou and seized Li's military and political power in Guangdong. Xue Yue also openly defected to Lee and took refuge in Zhang Fakui. The newly compiled Second Division was reorganized into the First Division of the Fourth Army of the National Revolutionary Army. As a teacher, except for the fourth regiment stationed in Chenjiaci, West Village, Guangzhou, the rest were transferred to Jiangmen for garrison.

At this time, the fourth regiment of its division in Guangzhou is attacking Guanyin Mountain. At 8 o'clock in the morning, after the four regiments occupied the hill, they attacked the Guangzhou Uprising General Command (the former Municipal Public Security Bureau) for five times in a row, and all of them were repelled. However, at 10 in the afternoon, with the reinforcements of the Fifth Army of Li Fulin, the National Revolutionary Army, and the right-wing "death squads" of Guangzhou workers, the general headquarters of the Rebel Army was occupied. Then white terror enveloped Guangzhou city.
Zhang Fakui and Huang Qixiang's barbaric acts of slaughtering revolutionary masses in Guangzhou were not only condemned by the people and the media, but also attacked by warlords in Guangxi and criticized by other factions in the Kuomintang, so they were forced to leave Guangzhou for Hong Kong. Miao Peinan and Xue Yue served as commanders and deputy commanders of the Fourth Army respectively, and quickly withdrew their troops to Dongjiang to leave Guangdong. In Qiling and Tanxia, they were attacked by Chen and Huang. They won first and then lost, and were forced to retreat. After the old dragon, he turned to peace and entered Gannan. The remaining 20,000 people lost nearly half.

In July, he and Miao Peinan took the lead in responding to Chiang Kai-shek's announcement of disarmament, encouraging the colonel to sign a letter with Shangguan Zuo, demanding the abolition of the fourth army. In mid-September, the Fourth Army was reduced to the fourth division, with Miao Peinan as the division commander and Zhu Huiri as the deputy division commander. Xue Yue couldn't see Chiang Kai-shek and was forced to leave the team and live in Kowloon. Soon, he took part in the anti-Chiang activities of Wang Jingwei, Chen Gongbo and others.
At the beginning of 1929, Yu Zuobai was appointed as the chairman of Guangxi provincial government by Chiang Kai-shek for plotting to overthrow Guangxi. Xue Yue and his classmates from Wuchang Army Second Preparatory School and Baoding Military Academy. In May, he and Li Lang, etc. On orders from Wang Ching-wei and Chen Gongbo, Yu Zuobai went south from Shanghai to his post. When passing through Guangzhou, they suggested that Chen should be driven away and Guangdong and Guangxi should be unified as a base against Chiang Kai-shek. I felt suddenly and didn't agree. In July, he went to Nanning in the name of sending a power of attorney to persuade him to send troops as soon as possible. After I agree, he will return to Hong Kong and report to me. 10 year 10 month 1 day, electrified against Chiang Kai-shek in Nanning, Guangxi, and failed to fight against Chiang Kai-shek because of the mutiny of his subordinate Lu Huanyan.
In February of 65438, Zhang Fakui went south to Guangxi and joined forces with Li Zongren against Chiang Kai-shek. Prior to this, Zhu Huiri and others also set up an office in Hong Kong to contact armed groups in various places, and on February 3, 1928 and 1928, they coordinated the fourth army and dispatched troops to crusade against Chiang Kai-shek. In February of the following year, the Fourth Army failed to win Chiang Kai-shek in hua county, and Xue Yue and Wu Qiwei returned to Lianjiang, Guangdong. In mid-June, he participated in the Battle of Beiliu. The Fourth Army fought fiercely with Guangdong Army Jiang Guangnai and Cai Tingkai for two days and nights, and suffered heavy losses. Reduced to three regiments, he served as the head of 35 regiments.
Central Plains War

In June, its follow-up troops were stopped by Jiang Guangnai and Cai Tingkai in Hengyang, and the rear road was cut off. At this critical juncture, Xue Yue advocated sending troops to the southeast and taking Nanjing to attract the main force of Chiang Kai-shek and achieve the goal of "besieging Wei to save Zhao". But it was not adopted by Zhang Fakui and others. The post-Zhang and Guangxi allied forces were besieged by Chiang Kai-shek and Cai in Hengyang, causing heavy casualties. When we broke through to Guangxi, there were only a thousand people left in the Fourth Army. He was defeated because his ideas were rejected, so he was depressed and full of complaints. He publicly announced to his subordinates that he and Zhang Fakui would never do it again, and agreed that the officers and men would handle the weapons themselves, which made the morale of the army even more lax. On July 4th, when the Fourth Army retreated to Guilin, there were only five or six hundred guns left. But some officers and men asked to do it again. Later, Li Zongren transferred some troops from Gui Jun to enrich the establishment of the Fourth Army and appointed Xue Yue as the tenth division commander. On June+10 in 5438, under the command of Bai Chongxi, Xue Yue led the troops to lift the siege of Nanning. His foot was injured in the battle with the Yunnan army. After the war, he asked the General Command to transfer his work, saying that "he was infected with malaria after being injured in the battle of Ma Ping" and "he has not recovered yet, and for the sake of recuperation, he sincerely allows temporary transfer of work". In 65438+February, the Fourth Army was downsized, and Commander-in-Chief Li Zongren approved Xue Yue's request. 10 division merged into 12 division, and he was transferred to the president of Liuzhou Military Academy. 1932 1 month, he saw that the internal political situation of the Kuomintang was complicated, so he resigned and returned to live in Kowloon.

From April this year, Xue Yue commanded the Sixth Route Army to occupy Lombardi, Shanghai, Shoushan, Xingguo and Gulong Port, an important town in southern Jiangxi. In June of 5438+00, it occupied Shicheng again, threatening the red capital Ruijin.
After the Central Red Army started the Long March of 25,000 Li, Xue Yue was ordered by Chiang Kai-shek to command the Sixth Route Army and the Eighth Column to pursue it. After the Red Army entered Hunan, He Jian was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the pursuit army and the commander-in-chief of the former enemy. 165438+ 10, Chiang Kai-shek mobilized 400,000 troops from the Central Committee and Gui Jun, Hunan Province, in an attempt to encircle and destroy the Red Army on the border between Hunan and Guangxi. Xue Yue was ordered to lead his troops to attack along the Xianggui Highway, and fought fiercely with the Red Army for seven days and seven nights. 1935 1 When the Central Red Army invaded Zunyi, its command post marched into and around Guiyang, the capital of Guizhou, and was soon appointed by Chiang Kai-shek as commander-in-chief of the former enemy of the Second Route Army, commander-in-chief of Long Yun, and director of Guiyang "Sui Department".
1935 65438+1In mid-October, the Central Red Army forcibly crossed the Chishui River and prepared to cross the Yangtze River from the north and south of Sichuan. Chiang Kai-shek urgently dispatched 36 regiments to surround him. Xue Yue was ordered to lead Zhou Hunyuan's troops across the Wujiang River, enter Qianxi, and carry out a side attack in an attempt to crush the Red Army in the south of the Yangtze River, east of Hengjiang River, north and west of Wujiang River.
1935 At the beginning of March, the Red Army crossed the Chishui River three times and entered southern Sichuan. Xue Yue immediately commanded the columns to carry out stern chase, and built a bunker to surround them. In April, Chiang Kai-shek also rushed to Guiyang to bid. At this time, Mao Zedong eastward, four crossing Chishui, crossing Wujiang River, pointing to Guiyang. This made Chiang Kai-shek feel an unexpected threat and personally arranged Guiyang's defense. At the same time, Sun Du of Yunnan was urged to lead the troops to "rescue" day and night. At this time, the Red Army took advantage of it, turned to Yunnan, crossed the Jinsha River from the northwest of Kunming, and besieged Huili. Xue Yue led his troops across the river to Huili. At the destination, the Red Army has advanced to the Dadu River (1In May 863, Shi Dakai was wiped out in the Dadu River). At this point, Chiang Kai-shek immediately mobilized more than 200,000 people from the Central Army of Xue Yue and other local troops to organize the Dadu River Campaign in an attempt to annihilate the Red Army. However, just as Xue Yue and others were busy dispatching troops, the Red Army split into two roads and quickly broke through Liu's defense line, crossing the Dadu River from Anshun Field and Luding Bridge respectively.
Xue Yue led his troops from Jiangxi to Southwest, with a journey of more than 20,000 Li, and fought the Red Army in several southwestern provinces. Although he did not win, he expanded the power to rule the southwest provinces for Chiang Kai-shek. After the Southwest War, Xue Yue was rewarded by Chiang Kai-shek.

After the fall, the Japanese invaded Yunzaobang and Yang Jing. 654381October 8, Xue Yue served as commander-in-chief of the Central Operation Zone of the Left Army, and held fast to the south bank of Yunzaobang for more than half a month. On October 28th, 65438/KLOC-0, the campaign moved to Jiangqiao Town, Xiaonanxiang, Chen Jiaxing and Guangfu Town. He commanded the 19th Army to compete with the Japanese army in Zhuyuan Village, and stormed five times, but they were all recovered, which dealt a heavy blow to the enemy. Its departments also suffered serious losses, with less than two-thirds of the survivors. 165438+ 10/day, the Japanese army bypassed Hangzhou Bay and landed in jinshanwei.

1937165438+1October 13, Xue Yue became the commander-in-chief of the left army, and was ordered by Chiang Kai-shek to deploy the Wu auxiliary line. He divided the15th Army,19th Army, 23rd Army and 9th Army of the National Revolutionary Army into left-wing and right-wing defence forces. However, before the layout was ready, the Japanese army landed from the Yangtze River estuary, Xuliujingkou, Hupukou and other places, and the situation was critical. Before long, he was forced to retreat to the west line.
1937 65438+February 12, Nanjing fell.
After Xue Yue retreated from the Xicheng Line, he was promoted to commander-in-chief of the third theater of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's former enemy, stationed in Tunxi, and stationed in the rectification team. He went deep behind the enemy lines in Hangzhou, Jiaxing, Beijing and Wuhu, cut off land and water traffic, and cooperated with the fifth theater to fight against the enemy. According to the operational policy of "tactical attack on strategic defense" and "regular army defense, guerrilla attack" at that time, he first dispatched some officers and men from the 19th regiment to organize guerrillas, took Kong Hechong as the commander-in-chief of the guerrillas, established institutions, formulated policies, and awarded "two major tasks" and "three major tactics", namely, knocking down the living enemy, destroying the dead, detouring, ambushing and disturbing.

Xue Yue successively recovered Neihuang and Yejigang. However, the whole battle plan was destroyed because Gui Yongqing, commander of the 27th Army of the National Revolutionary Army, gave up important land without authorization. He complained to the Military Committee of the National Government that after Gui was dismissed, he readjusted his layout, recaptured Lanfeng, and besieged the Japanese army at Sanyizhai, Luowangzhai and other three strongholds. At the moment when the war of annihilation was in sight, the Eighth Army, which was responsible for stopping the enemy reinforcements south of Luxi, retreated back to Germany against orders, so that the Japanese army in Luxi continued to advance westward and supported the besieged enemy.
1938 On May 30th, Xue Yue was promoted to commander-in-chief of the former enemy in the first war zone, commanding the first and second corps of Tang, Shang Zhen, Sun and other departments. On June 1 day, the Japanese soldiers were divided into two roads, all the way from Germany and other places to the west, occupying Suixian County, approaching Lanfeng and Qixian County, attacking Taikang all the way to solve the problem of dohihara trapped in Sanyizhai, Quxingji and Luowangzhai, and then attacking Kaifeng and Lanfeng. Chiang Kai-shek was afraid that the main force would be destroyed, so Xue Yue withdrew his troops to the mountain west of Beijing-Han Railway, and the former enemy headquarters moved to Luoyang.
1June 9, 938, Chiang Kai-shek promulgated the battle sequence of Wuhan garrison. Xue Yue was appointed commander-in-chief of the First Corps in the garrison.

In late September, six Japanese divisions invaded Changsha from northern Jiangxi, southern Hubei and northern Hunan with the cooperation of more than 100 planes and more than 300 ships. Xue Yue mobilized 52 divisions of the 21st Army and deployed them in northern Jiangxi, southern Hubei and Dongting Lake to prevent the Japanese from attacking from the side. At the beginning of 10, after more than 20 days of fighting, the Japanese army was defeated, with more than 40 casualties, including more than 40 officers with less ranks or above. Encouraged by Chiang Kai-shek, he rewarded soldiers150,000 yuan.

With the support of more than 100 planes and more than 200 ships, we divided our troops and invaded Changsha for the second time. Xue Yue mobilized 17 troops, totaling 200,000 troops. At the same time, while carrying out a "decisive retreat", seven armies were deployed in the eastern mountainous areas to carry out side attacks and contain the enemy. After continuous resistance, the enemy was lured into the ambush areas of Miluo River and Laodao River and suffered heavy losses. Finally, the Japanese army was forced to flee back to the original stronghold north of the new wall river. The Kuomintang army won the second victory in Changsha.
194 1 65438+February, the Japanese army invaded Changsha for the third time with120,000 troops. The Japanese army stormed the new wall river position.

On June 65438+1 October1day of the following year, the Japanese army attacked Changsha from the southeast. 1942 65438+1October 4th, the ministries successively attacked the second attack line, thus completing the anti-encirclement of the Japanese army. Immediately attack the center of the ball from the east, west, south and north, and defeat the enemy. Seeing that the remnants of the enemy had broken through and fled north, Xue Yue immediately ordered the ministries to pursue and intercept. This battle, which lasted for more than half a month, caused more than 50 thousand casualties to the enemy of Yugoslavia. After the third battle in Changsha, he won a medal of right sky and white day.
1944 In May, the Japanese army appointed Ban Yuan as the commander-in-chief of the Central China Dispatching Army and moved the Kwantung Army to the south. Together with Japanese troops in northern Jiangxi, southern Hubei and northern Hunan, there are more than 200,000 people. With the cooperation of more than 600 planes and 30 cars, we divided our forces and invaded Changsha for the fourth time. June 1944, Changsha fell. The fourth battle in Changsha was defeated. When Changsha fell, Chiang Kai-shek was furious and ordered the execution of Zhang Deneng, the commander of the 4th Army.
After the Japanese invaded Changsha, they immediately divided their forces and invaded Hengyang. Long before the Japanese army invaded Changsha, Xue Yue had already made the No.1 10 Army with strong fighting capacity defend Hengyang.
On July 30th, 1944, under the personal command of Okamura Ningji, the Japanese army launched the third attack on Hengyang. Xue Yue ordered the ministries to carry out counter-encirclement, and sent thirteen telegrams for help. At this time, the 10th Army and the temporary 54th Division stationed in Hengyang City have reduced their manpower by half, their combat effectiveness has been greatly damaged, and their reinforcements have been blocked. 1In August, 944, after the Japanese army occupied Hengyang, in order to prevent the Japanese army from getting through the Guangdong-Han Railway, it withdrew its troops to the Hunan-Jiangxi-Guangdong border area.
After the Japanese surrender, Xue Yue was appointed commander of Nanxun Line. On September 1945, Nanchang held a surrender ceremony. 1945 10 June10, US President Truman awarded him the Medal of Freedom in recognition of his contribution to War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression.
During the civil war
1946 In May, Xue Yue served as the director of the Sui Department of the Kuomintang Xuzhou Army. According to the policy of "North-South Meeting, Occupy Shandong, Open the Jin-Pu Line", the Kuomintang Ministry of National Defense launched a campaign to invade the southern Shandong liberated area in an attempt to open two railway branches, namely Lin (city), Xu (state) and Taiwan (Erzhuang), and quickly occupy Zaozhuang Coal Mine.
1946 10.6, Xue Yue ordered Wang Changhai to be the 77th Division of the reorganization of teachers and the 26th Division of the reorganization of Ma, with the support of the air force, to attack Yixian and Zaozhuang respectively. Because the New Fourth Army in southern Shandong has adopted the strategic policy of avoiding reality and avoiding emptiness, it has already retreated. Without much fighting, it occupied Yixian and Zaozhuang on the 8th. 1early October, 165438+ ordered ministries to "clear" the liberated areas from the east, north, west and south, threatening Linyi People's Government and Yimeng Revolutionary Base. In the middle of the year, Wang Changhai stationed in Taierzhuang was suddenly attacked by the New Fourth Army led by Ye Fei, and Brigadier Dai committed suicide because of defeat.
In early February of 65438+, Xue Yue ordered the well-equipped BGF 26th Division to invade the Liberated Area from the east of Yixian County. 1On New Year's Day in 947, the division left Yixian for more than a hundred miles and was lured into Bianzhuang and Xiangcheng by the New Fourth Army. Subsequently, Xiangcheng was surrounded by eight divisions of the New Fourth Army from northern Jiangsu and central Shandong. He immediately transferred two reorganization divisions from Xuzhou for support, and one of them was besieged by the New Fourth Army as soon as he arrived in Gulin Village. On the 5 th, I was trapped in the breakout of the horse and suffered heavy casualties. Its brigade commander Jiang Xiuren was killed. 10, Yixian was attacked by the New Fourth Army, Ma and his chief of staff were captured alive, and the 26th Division was wiped out.
Xue Yue served as the director of the Kuomintang Xuzhou "Sui Department" for more than half a year, and Lien Chan lost in a row, which caused many criticisms within the Kuomintang. On March 3, Chiang Kai-shek saw his "poor command and low reputation" and revoked his "Sui Department" director.
In May+10, 65438, Xue Yue was appointed as the commander of the Nanjing government army. In May of the following year, he was transferred to Chiang Kai-shek's "Presidential Office" to join the army. During this period, he often talked with Yu Hanmou, commander-in-chief of the army, Zhang Fakui, the former commander of the Fourth Army who lived in Shanghai, and other Guangdong dignitaries about current politics and their own way out.
1948 In April, the National Congress was held in Nanjing. Xue Yue and Zhang Fakui set up a campaign team to coordinate funds and canvass for Vice President Sun Ke. Sun Ke's shadow cabinet was informally appointed: Zhang Fakui as the Minister of National Defense, Xue Yue as the Chief of Staff, Yu Hanmou as the Minister of Military and Political Affairs, Chen Ce as the Minister of Navy, Li Hanhun as the Minister of Interior, and Zhong Tianxin as the Minister of Education. But soon, the ugly behavior of Guangdong people canvassing for Sun Ke was revealed by Nanjing Salvation Daily, which involved Sun Ke's private life. Embarrassed, Xue Yue led 100 people to the newspaper to apologize. A newspaper in Shanghai published the news with the prominent headline "Three generals will seize the gun and make great efforts".
After the Huaihai Campaign, Xue Yue, Zhang Fakui and other Guangdong politicians put forward the slogan of "Guangdong people ruling Guangdong" and opposed Song Ziwen's continued rule of Guangdong.

First of all, under the banner of "Guangdong People's Congress Unity", he vigorously recruited the old military and political personnel in Guangdong, installed cronies and rejected dissidents. The appointment and removal of cadres at each department, bureau, department and department level is up to them. At the same time, the original fifteen peace preservation corps, expanded to twenty regiments, into five divisions. His cronies are teachers. In order to adapt to the operation of the large corps, each division was also equipped with heavy artillery and chariots, and mobilized troops from all over the country near Guangzhou and along important railways in the province in an attempt to stop the People's Liberation Army from marching into Guangdong.

Haikou, An Baili, Huachang, Tianxing and Ma Xiao are the core defense lines. Its deployed troops reached100000.

Xue Yue's soldiers had no fighting spirit, and collapsed at one blow, and were wiped out by 50,000 to 60,000 people. 1939 1, during his tenure as commander-in-chief of the Ninth Theater, Xue Yue also carried out a series of political construction in Hunan, and was appointed as the chairman of Hunan Province at the crucial moment. After he took office, he put forward the policy of "safety, convenience and sufficiency" according to the actual situation in Hunan and the needs of the war of resistance against Japan. The so-called "security" is to find ways to make Hunan people live and work in peace and contentment, "convenient", even if the people, the country and the war; "Enough" means having enough food, soldiers and wisdom. And implement the so-called "six strategies" construction accordingly.
Xue Yue regards improving people's health as the first important policy in Hunan's political construction, which is called "the policy of giving birth to people". He pointed out that only the health of every citizen can save the country, and only the health of the whole nation can achieve true freedom and equality. In addition to increasing funds to improve the original hospital medical equipment, it also allocated 4 million yuan to build the third, sixth, seventh and eighth provincial hospitals. Later, the ninth and tenth provincial hospitals were established. Before the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the provincial construction and education departments were ordered to allocate funds to build Nanyue Gymnasium and open Zhongshan Park. At the same time, opium is strictly prohibited and prostitution is restricted.
In its administration, Xue Yue attaches great importance to the development of agriculture, forestry, water conservancy, transportation and industrial and mining enterprises, which is called "government for helping the people". He encouraged farmers around the lake to reclaim lake fields and expand the cultivated area. Grassroots cadres and civil servants are allowed to rent farmland to improve their lives. All localities are required to achieve "one county, one agricultural and forestry farm, one town, one agricultural and forestry farm, one insurance and one agricultural and forestry farm".
National education, the so-called "politics of teaching the people", is a key point in Xue Yue's political construction. On the one hand, he developed cultural education in primary and secondary schools to improve people's intelligence, on the other hand, he developed secondary normal schools and vocational education to meet the needs of industrial and agricultural production and primary and secondary education. At the same time, he opposed the commercialization of schools and ordered district commissioners to supervise provincial normal schools, vocational secondary schools and private national party schools above secondary level in the region. "Strictly improve the style of study and improve teaching methods. If you violate modern educational methods and commercialize the school, you must report it to the government for strict action."
Xue Yue also attaches great importance to strengthening the police organization, eliminating traitors and bandits and stabilizing the home front, which is called "government for the people". He called for "effective prevention" of those who were bought by the enemy and puppet forces, "manipulated the market, drove up prices, actively destroyed the social economy, and then complained about the anti-war actions in the war"; Anyone who "participates in a pseudo-organization, leads the way for the enemy, works as a detective, works as a plainclothes team, builds roads, transports food, ammunition and wounded soldiers, is allowed to be shot on the spot once caught, and upholds the law."
In order to arouse people's resistance to Japan, Xue Yue implemented the so-called "government by the people" to rectify and improve political and social organizations. He stipulated that all people's organizations, economic organizations and cooperative institutions belonging to social organizations have the responsibility to absolutely obey orders and carry out the war of resistance and nation-building, otherwise they will be dissolved and reorganized according to law; All cultural organizations belonging to social groups have propaganda laws and decrees to arouse the people's responsibility to carry out anti-Japanese and nation-building work, otherwise they will be dissolved and rectified according to law.
The sixth government in Xue Yue is the so-called "government by the people". He attached great importance to the construction of grain policy and instructed the relevant departments to reasonably set the price of rice grain to prevent profiteers and palace merchants from making profits at high prices, so as to achieve "the coexistence of grain merchants and people who eat rice, regardless of people's livelihood." At the same time, all counties, cities and relevant departments are also required to evaluate, check and check prices; As "the most important task at present. It is pointed out: "We should not raise prices at high prices, but strive for the word" Zhengzhong "to allow businessmen to buy and sell; Then things will go smoothly and the price in the market will be safe. For example, profiteers manipulate officials and businessmen, and the county government ignores them and is indifferent to people's livelihood, but prices soar. "
In the Third World War in Changsha, Xue Yue troops annihilated Japanese troops 1 17500 (the number of enemies wiped out in the Third World War was 20000, 4 15000 and 56000 respectively). Although China's army lost in the Battle of Heng Chang in 1944, Changsha and Hengyang successively fell, but it still caused 22,000 casualties to the Japanese army. 1949,65438+February 10, Chiang Kai-shek's troops fled to Taiwan Province Province, and Xue Yue's troops did not withdraw from Hainan Island until 1950. After arriving in Taiwan Province Province, Chiang Kai-shek had great respect for him.

After the death of Chiang Kai-shek and Jiang Jingguo, Lee Teng-hui came to power. As a representative of the National Assembly, Xue Yue refused to sign the amendment to the Constitution proposed by the Kuomintang, which led to the cancellation of his housing budget in Taipei. 199 1, Lee Teng-hui abolished the committee, and Xue Yue paid the rent himself. Xue Yue refused to accept the high rent demanded by Taiwanese banks and took Xue Yue to court with 1993.
