What did Han Fuyu do? Why did Li Zongren sue him, and Lao Jiang also wanted to execute him?
The sudden withdrawal of the ROK troops has aroused doubts from all sides
In the early days of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Shandong battlefield has always been regarded as the forefront of the head-to-head confrontation between our army and the Japanese army. In December 1937, when the Japanese army was attacking Shandong on a large scale, Han Fuyu, the commander-in-chief of the Third Army of the National Revolutionary Army originally stationed in Shandong, suddenly ordered all the troops to withdraw from the frontline strongholds, which caused widespread doubts.
According to a person familiar with the matter, the incident occurred after the Japanese army airborne from Hebei, Shanxi, and other places invaded Shandong. The Korean troops engaged in many rounds of fierce battles with the Japanese army in Lintai, Caoxian, Juye and other places, but suffered heavy casualties. According to unnamed officers, more than half of the three divisions under the ROK command suffered casualties, and their strength has dropped significantly. At this time, Han ordered the whole army to retreat westward and abandon the original defense area.
This move is undoubtedly and has serious consequences. As the leader of the Fifth Theater, Marshal Li Zongren was very dissatisfied with this. It is rumored that he repeatedly ordered the Korean troops to hold their strongholds and buy time for the Nationalist government to regain lost territory, but Han did not listen to his commands. Some commentators have pointed out that Shandong is an important natural hazard that will not be lost for a long time, and once it is lost, it will have a far-reaching impact on the subsequent construction of the defense line and the reputation of the national government.
In addition, some people questioned Han's true intentions. According to reports, Han broke away from the restraint of the Nationalist Government during the retreat and secretly contacted Liu Xiang, a powerful local figure in Sichuan, which seemed to be suspected of setting up another door. This has once again ignited suspicions about rumors of his involvement in a "weak government".
Overall, Han's abrupt withdrawal seems ill-conceived. During the Anti-Japanese War, leaving the country to fight for the survival of the country should shoulder the heavy responsibility, no matter what the loss, they should stick to the stronghold; At the same time, a collective retreat is likely to demoralize and increase the hidden danger of public security in the rear. This move will inevitably attract criticism from all sides. At a time when people's livelihoods are struggling and people are panicking, such a move could further undermine the overall situation.
Of course, there are also voices saying that this is purely a military strategic consideration. Regardless of the real cause, we should pay more attention to the national crisis, and the warriors from all walks of life should work hand in hand, regardless of personal enmity, and fight the enemy together. At this juncture, recriminating each other inevitably thwarts more important matters. It is hoped that all parties can release more constructive messages and jointly promote the morale of our army.
It is worth mentioning that this incident eventually led to the execution of Han Fuyu, which also caused controversy.
Some commentators and analysts said that in view of the background of the overflow of military morale and the intricacies of the enemy's situation at that time, it may be inevitable that the central government would execute Han. However, it is a pity that there are controversies in the implementation process. According to those involved in the arrest, Han was accused of "mutiny" and was ensnared under the pretext of "attending a secret meeting." Subsequently, he was summarily executed in the first instance and shot without a conviction, which is suspected of violating the principles of justice.
On this basis, some people have also suggested that the central government's swift execution of Han may be related to Li Zongren's previous "direct report". Lee himself represents a powerful local faction, and Han is accused of trying to "weaken the government", and the relationship between the two is complicated. There is a view that the central authorities may have over-accommodated local generals and failed to adopt a comprehensive and fair attitude.
However, it is also questionable whether these details are worth a big deal compared to the events themselves. Now it seems that regardless of whether the execution process is perfect or not, Han is indeed suspected of losing military discipline in the first place. The key is to think from a higher level: When the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression is in full swing, should generals from all walks of life put the overall situation of the whole country first and abandon their own selfish interests? From this point of view, the incident may have left important lessons for today's people.
Generally speaking, there is nothing small about history, and every detail may affect the growth of future generations. We should be tolerant and rational in our view of the truth of this case, which has been polished over the years. Today, what we should think more about is how to draw lessons from the experience, build consensus, and contribute to the construction of a new Chinese rejuvenation.
