Early experience
1April 7, 905, Guan was born in an ordinary peasant family in Zhenhuatuan Village, Yan County, Shaanxi Province. Father Guan Shuming, mother Yang, stepmother Jia, six brothers and sisters, have been farming for generations and have a medium family. Guan Zhidao studied in a private school in the village when he was a child. At the age of nine, he transferred to a primary school in a neighboring village. Because Guan's father had high expectations of him, he was soon sent to a higher primary school in Jixian County to study. He got the first place in the graduation exam, but he was reduced to the second place because he likes fighting at ordinary times. The headmaster said to people: "This child will be Yang Liulang in the future; Sell sesame candy if it is not made. " At that time, the teacher asked him what he wished for. He saw a company of soldiers stationed in Huxian town, and the company commander was very prestigious. He replied, "I hope to be a company commander in the future."
/kloc-After graduating from primary school at the age of 0/5, Guan came to the provincial capital An and was admitted to the provincial third middle school. At that time, Liu Zhenhua of Song Jun Town held Wujiang Guild Hall in Xi 'an. Every time he passed the gate of Wujiang Hall, he saw the word "Struggle" written on the wall of Wujiang Hall, and he was very envious. However, he is a poor student with no background and can't enter the door. He just looked at the hall and sighed. Later, due to repeated changes in his family, he was heavily in debt and dropped out of school. He is determined to give up literature and join the army, hoping to make money to help his family pay off debts.
At this time, there are also two students from three middle schools in the province who want to be soldiers. They managed to get a letter of introduction about a battalion commander in Yao county who defected to Zhen Songjun, so they invited Guan to go with them. When they arrived in Yaoxian county, they handed in letters of introduction in the military camp and waited for a week, but even the shadow of the battalion commander was not seen. It turns out that they don't know the doorways, don't give gifts, and a piece of paper alone can't solve the problem. The three men had to return to Xi 'an on impulse and disappointed.
At the beginning of 1924, Guan's friends quietly told him that Dr. Sun Yat-sen had opened an officer school in Guangzhou and secretly enrolled students. They got passports issued by Hu Jingyi and signed by Wu. Wu doesn't want to go because Guangdong is too far away. He asked Guan if he wanted to go to Guangzhou for military school. If he wants to go, all he has to do is change Wu in his passport to Guan. Hearing the news, he was overjoyed and agreed at once. He went home to report the situation, took 25 silver dollars from his father's livestock sales as travel expenses, and changed the name "Wu" in his passport to "Guan". Since then, Guanzhi Road has been renamed Guan.
They walked from Xi 'an to Lingbao, Henan, changed trains to Shanghai, and found Yu Youren, the elder of the League. I asked them, "Why do you want to be a soldier?" At that time, he knew nothing about "ism" and "revolution" and had to answer honestly: "Being an official is awesome." Yu Youren was amused by Guan Hanhou's answer, and simply explained to them why Sun Yat-sen organized a revolutionary team to oppose the Beiyang warlords and carry out the national revolution. Soon, one of them 1 1 (including Du,) got a secret letter of introduction from Yu Youren and bought a boat to go south to Guangzhou.
/kloc-0 arrived in Yangcheng in April, 1924, then took a boat to Huangpu Island and entered the Kuomintang Army Academy (Huangpu Military Academy) as the first student. He was incorporated into the third detachment and joined the Kuomintang in China. On May 5, the first batch of freshmen began to join the army, and the opening ceremony was held on June 16. Guan and the freshmen listened to Dr. Sun Yat-sen's speech. Sun Yat-sen encouraged students not only to be brilliant soldiers, but also to be soldiers who are not afraid of hardships and death. His words had an important influence on the military career after Guan. In terms of military education courses, he studied four major courses: Canon, Model and Order, and engaged in military drills and actual combat exercises, which laid a preliminary foundation for future battles.
1928, served as the head of the 2nd regiment of the Guard Command of the Kuomintang General Command. When Chiang Kai-shek established the first 1 1 division, Cao Wanshun, the former headquarters of Fujian warlord Zhou Yinren who defected to Chiang Kai-shek, was appointed as the teacher and Chen Cheng as the deputy teacher. Soon, Guan was transferred to 1 1 division 6 1 as the head of the regiment. Chen Cheng's cronies, Luo, then the chief of staff of the 11th Division, wanted to unite the graduates of Huangpu Military Academy who were brigade commanders in the 11th Division at that time, and Xiao Gan and Guan, then teachers, to drive Cao Wanshun away and recommend Chen Chengren as a teacher. When Luo asked their opinions, Guan said to Luo, "Chen Shorty is not smarter than Cao Wanshun, but he may be worse than Cao." Luo told Chen Cheng afterwards that from then on, Chen Guan became an enemy. Soon after, Guan was appointed as the brigade commander of the 32nd Brigade, and on 1929, Chen Cheng reported that he was the former general headquarters of Shaanxi and the new deputy commander of the 5th Division. Shortly after his arrival, teacher Deng Ying went to Nanjing for training. Unexpectedly, the two regiments dragged guns up the mountain as bandits, leaving him as the deputy commander. A few days after the two regiments went up the mountain, Gong, the head of one of them, came to see Guan privately and bargained with him, saying, "If the deputy division commander can promote me as a brigade commander, I can call back both regiments that went up the mountain and support you as a division commander." At that time, Guan refused Gong's request and looked down on this warlord style of relying on foreign self-respect. He was a real soldier, but he let Gong go without detaining him. However, the patrol and head of the new fifth division are all soldiers with strong local color and very old qualifications. It is naturally difficult for Guan, a young man in his twenties, to serve as a teacher. From the prospective Yang Qingyuan, he is regarded as an enemy. He felt that this unit could not be brought, and publicly indicated that he had no intention of being the commander of the new fifth division, that is, he was going to Nanjing to meet Chiang Kai-shek. He was also appointed as the head of the second division, and the deputy division was reduced to the head.
1930, the Central Plains War broke out between Chiang Kai-shek, Yan Xishan and Feng Yuxiang. Chiang Kai-shek dispatched two newly established teaching directors to attack the Central Plains, held them in Zhang Zhizhong as the second teaching director of teachers and the head of the brigade, and went to the Central Plains battlefield with the troops. In the first battle, Guan Tuan was ordered to defend Gaoxinji in eastern Henan. Yan stormed for more than a month and failed to capture Gao Xinji because Guan mobilized officers and soldiers to resolutely stop it. Later, Guan Ba moved to Qixian County, Henan Province. He used the strength of a regiment to cover the retreat of the whole division. Because one of his battalions lost contact, the time was delayed. On the way, he was attacked by Yan, and the number was several times more than that. The situation is very critical, foggy and unclear. He used his quick wits to take advantage of this advantage. Instead of retreating, he ordered a counterattack. Yan did not dare to move forward rashly because of the unknown situation in the fog. He was afraid of an ambush and ordered to retreat, so that he could escape calmly. Because of his meritorious service in this retreat, he was immediately promoted to brigade commander of the Second Division.
In the autumn of the same year, Chiang Kai-shek personally commanded the battle at Liuhe Station, west of Shangqiu, Henan Province, and Guan's second brigade was ordered to defend the railway front line 20 miles away from Liuhe Station. Due to the vast defensive position of Guanlv and the insufficient use of troops, the superior temporarily transferred Liu Ziqing's battalion to his command and shared some frontal defensive tasks. As soon as the battle curtain was opened, due to the large number of Yan troops and fierce firepower, the defensive position of Liu Ziqing's camp was breached, Liu Ziqing was injured in the battle and the whole camp was defeated. At this critical moment of jun, there are no mobile troops around Guan to make up for it. If his defensive position falls, it will endanger Chiang Kai-shek who is close at hand. At this time, he will use only 30 guards around him to fill Liu Ziqing's defensive position. At the turn of summer and autumn, he had a brainwave, hiding 30 soldiers in a green tent and shooting them scattered. Yan Feng Jun was afraid of being ambushed because he didn't know the truth, so he didn't dare to charge heavily. He just bombarded with artillery. Guan's "empty plan" blocked the advance of the army and kept Chiang Kai-shek safe. He didn't catch his breath until the reinforcements arrived at noon. Since then, it has won the appreciation of Chiang Kai-shek and the admiration of Huangpu students. Guan was brave and resourceful. At the age of 26, his reputation as an excellent conductor spread like wildfire.
1937, Guan was promoted to commander of the 52nd Army, commanding the 2nd Division (Zheng Dongguo) and 25th Division (Zhang Yaoming), and went to War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. In autumn and winter this year, he led his troops to engage in the anti-Japanese struggle on the Pinghan Railway. In September, I participated in the Battle of Baoding. In addition to commanding the two divisions of the headquarters, he also commanded the 17 Division of Zhao Shoushan and the Second Division of the Third Army, which was quickly broken by the Hunan, Guangdong and Qing Divisions of the First Army of the Japanese Army. This is the most attentive battle he has ever fought. In June+10, 5438, the 1st 14 division and one of the 6th and 6th 16 divisions of the Japanese army invaded Zhanghe River from Feixiang, Cheng 'an and Linzhang counties in southern Hebei. He led the 52nd Army in a fierce offensive and defensive battle with Kenji Toyohara, the Japanese 1st14th Division, on the south bank of Zhanghe River. The two sides fought hand-to-hand and retreated several times, but they were all recovered, causing heavy casualties on both sides. Due to Guan Jun's heroic killing, the Japanese army finally retreated to Handan and Wu 'an on the north bank of Zhanghe River. Guan learned from the inspector's report that Koujun had an airport and a petrol depot outside Handan City, and immediately transferred the battalion commander Liang Zhiwei from the 25th Division, asking him to lead a battalion to attack the airport at night, burn down more than 0/0 Japanese planes and seize a large number of firearms and ammunition, which was rewarded by Cheng Qian, commander of the First Theater.
193 1 year, Shi Yousan's department fought against Chiang Kai-shek in southern Hebei, Liu Guitang attached it, and fought against Chiang Kai-shek in Nangong and Daming. At this time, Guan was appointed as the brigade commander of the eleventh brigade of the fourth division and was ordered to attack the Xia brigade entrenched in the Nangong. After the troops arrived at Nangong, Guan found that the two sides were evenly matched, and Xia Brigade closed the city gate and the defense was tight, so he resolutely made a decision: he could only outsmart them, but not storm them. He ordered the soldiers to camp in lo Village, which was out of the city, to relax Xia Jun's guard, and ordered a battalion to secretly move to hide near the city wall after dark. Seeing that there was a dead silence outside the city, the garrison in the summer of the city did not intend to attack, so they opened the city to inquire. Guan Jun people hiding near the city wall immediately made a dash for the door, and the army then entered the city. Xia was caught off guard and fled in a hurry. After Guan Yu occupied Nangong County in just a few hours, Xia Lv was completely annihilated, and Guan Lv only killed or injured more than 30 people. This battle is the most proud of all previous battles.
1943, the minister of military and political affairs transferred Huang Wei, commander of the 54th Army under the jurisdiction of the Ninth Army, and with the support of He, Guan Pai took over as commander. This unit is Chen Cheng's own unit, and Fu Zhengmo, Chen's confidant and deputy commander, joined forces with army officers to sue, which intensified the contradiction between Guan and Chen. Soon, Chen Cheng flew from Hubei to Kunming to plan an expeditionary force to see Chen. When they mentioned the 54th Army, they struck the table and exchanged glances. Guan coldly replied: "Our resignation is a leader who is about to master state affairs and should not be locked in the small circle of civil engineering. A commander's position won't let go. This is not the heart that should be given to a big cause! " Upon hearing this, Chen Cheng suffered from gastric ulcer and vomiting blood. Since then, although Du has been mediating, Chen Yi has been at odds with each other. The refusal to go to Taiwan Province after the defeat of the Kuomintang was directly related to the interim government.
