On May 26, 1954, Tang Enbo was found to have a tumor in the 12-finger intestine and flew to Japan with the consent of Chiang Kai-shek, planning to receive treatment in Japan. However, Tang Enbowan did not expect that on June 29, during the third operation at a hospital in Tokyo, Japan, he died on the operating table due to excessive blood loss, and it was said that he died a terrible death. When he learned of Tang Enbo's death, Chairman Jiang only coldly said, "It is better to die."

Like the overwhelming majority of The Kuomintang generals who had defeated and retreated to Taiwan, Tang Enbo was also treated coldly by Chiang Kai-shek after arriving in Taiwan and "stood aside." Losing the rights he relied on and becoming "nothing", Tang Enbo was depressed in Taiwan. Moreover, Unlike other defeated generals, Tang Enbo can be called a hater in Taiwan and has almost no friends. Because, he not only lost many battles, but also sold his teacher for glory in 1949, resulting in Chen Yi being shot by Chiang Kai-shek.
Chen Yi's kindness to Tang Enbo, who was able to study in Japan and even rise in the Kuomintang, was inseparable from Chen Yi's help. But at the critical moment, Tang Enbo actually sold his teacher for glory. Not only his colleagues, but even Chiang Kai-shek had great contempt for Tang Enbo's character. Therefore, in Taiwan, Tang Enbo was in a worse environment than other Generals who were on the sidelines of the Kuomintang.
Chen Yi
In Taiwan, Mr. Tang has only a fictitious position as a "strategic advisor to the Presidential Office," but he has no actual job, has been idle at home, and has almost no income. Under Chiang Kai-shek's strict orders, he could not get out of Taiwan. The "King of the Central Plains," who once held hundreds of thousands of troops, could only be depressed in every inch of Taiwan at this time. He left Taiwan due to illness, but died on the operating table of the Japanese, and the cause of death is still a mystery. I don't know how Tang Enbo will feel if he knows it.
Chiang Kai-shek and Tang Enbo
He was once the famous king of the Central Plains, commanding hundreds of thousands of Kuomintang Central Army, and also fought bloody battles with the Japanese in Taierzhuang, worthy of the honor of his famous anti-Japanese generals, but at the same time, he also caused an extremely tragic famine in the Central Plains, and was even called one of the four evils by the people of Henan: "water, drought, soup, locusts", "Tang" is Tang Enbo, and Tang Enbo is juxtaposed with natural disasters, which shows the great harm of Tang Enbo in Henan. Moreover, as the victory of World War II was approaching in 1944, Tang Enbo was even more defeated by the Japanese attack. The great rout of Yu Xianggui began with Tang Enbo.
Tang Enbo's greatest loyalty is not to the state and the nation, but to Chiang Kai-shek, or his source of power. Therefore, for the sake of power, he could fight against the Japanese and the Japanese under chiang kai-shek's strict orders; he could also ignore the people's lives and wantonly squeeze them; and even more could he betray his mentor. But he was eventually abandoned by Chiang Kai-shek, lost the right to pursue all his life, and finally died on the operating table of the Japanese.
