Zhang Zizhong: First place. Commander-in-Chief of the 33rd Army. Zhang Zizhong's election as a general was first decided by his record. In the battle of Taierzhuang, he hit the Japanese army's Sakamoto Division and won a great victory in Linyi. Recover Tongbai in Zaoyang and win the victory in northern Hubei; He also won a great victory in eastern Hunan and was called the fire official by the people. At the same time, because he was the highest general of our army who died during the Anti-Japanese War (Li Jiayu died later than Zhang). But most importantly, it is precisely because of people's sympathy for Zhang Zizhong's tragic experience that such an upright and noble patriot was once mistaken for a traitor and everyone shouted, which is a great shame. Finally, Zhang Zizhong took the initiative to sacrifice for this shame and expressed his innocence at the cost of his life. He is really a tragic hero.
Li Zongren: Second place. Commander of the fifth theater, sir. Li Zongren is a bit like Lin Biao, the second famous anti-Japanese soldier of the Chinese Communist Party. He fought a landmark World War I and then disappeared. The battle of Taierzhuang wiped out more than 20,000 enemy troops, which was the first victory of China's army on the frontal battlefield after War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression began. Moreover, the opponent is Japan's ace teacher, which is also known internationally as "the first significant fiasco suffered by Japan since the establishment of a modern army." After the Battle of Taierzhuang, although Li participated in the battles of Wuhan, Suizao and southern Henan, he did not make any achievements. Later, he was simply hanged by Chiang Kai-shek. Like Feng Yuxiang and Li, his position was higher than others. However, only with the Battle of Taierzhuang can Li Zongren be worthy of the title of anti-Japanese star.
Du: Third place. Commander of the fifth army. Participated in Gubeikou Great Wall Anti-Japanese War and August 13th Songhu Anti-Japanese War. It became famous with the great victory of Kunlun Pass in the Battle of South Guangxi. Although some people think that a very important factor in this victory is that the 5th Army, as the first mechanized unit in China, has stronger firepower than the Japanese army, but the opponent is Sakamoto Division Nakamura Brigade, which is known as the Japanese Iron and Steel Corps (the battle of Wanjialing in Xue Yue was faced with a second-rate division).
Sun Liren: Fourth place. The new commander of 1 group army. During the eight-year Anti-Japanese War, Sun Liren basically didn't fight in China except for the Battle of Songhu and Shanghai, and his exploits were mainly established in Myanmar. Especially when the Expeditionary Force fought in Myanmar for the first time, he defeated many with fewer troops, and rescued more than 7,000 British soldiers and journalists in World War I in yenangyaung. Chiang Kai-shek, Roosevelt and King George all awarded him medals, which made him famous.
Xue Yue: Fifth place. Commander of the ninth theater, sir. From the outbreak of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression to the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Xue Yue fought bloody battles for many years and made meritorious deeds. He is known as the general who wiped out the most enemies, and only four battles in Changsha wiped out the Japanese army100000 people. However, it was Wanjialing's victory that made him famous and ranked first. This battle wiped out a Japanese division, which was unique in the eight-year anti-Japanese war. Ye Ting praised this campaign for its tripartite confrontation with Pingxingguan and Taierzhuang. Some people call Xue Yue the first general of China's Anti-Japanese War. In terms of quantity, Xue Yue is well-deserved.
Wei: Sixth place. Deputy commander of the World War II theater, sir. It is basically appropriate for Wei to rank sixth. During the Anti-Japanese War, the most famous battle he commanded was the battle of Xinkou, which dealt a heavy blow to the Japanese army and wiped out tens of thousands of enemies. If Herry Liu hadn't been defeated in Hebei, which opened the gate of Niangziguan, he might have won a great victory in Xinkou. But the battle of Xinkou is invincible after all. In 43, when Wei was the commander of the second expeditionary force, he went to Myanmar and won a veritable victory. The war wiped out the Japanese army occupying Myanmar and opened the Yunnan-Myanmar highway, with brilliant results. Wei is one of Chiang Kai-shek's five generals, but the other four generals are all in name only. Only Wei is a veritable Iliad, but it is this Iliad who is least trusted by Chiang Kai-shek.
Fu: Seventh place. Deputy commander of the eighth theater, sir. The most famous national army anti-Japanese general in the north. In 33 years, he participated in the Great Wall War of Resistance, defeated the Japanese army invading Suiyuan and the puppet troops who raped King De in 36 years, and won a great victory in Bailing Temple. After the July 7th Incident, he participated in the battles of Pingxingguan, Xinkou and Taiyuan. In 40 years, Fu wiped out thousands of Japanese and puppet troops, recovered Wuyuan City and achieved great success in Wuyuan. This was the first battle of Kuomintang troops to recover lost territory since the Anti-Japanese War, which had a great influence. Lin Biao expressed his disdain for the Jin-Sui Army in his summary after the Pingxingguan campaign. The fighting capacity of the Jin-Sui Army is really average, but Fu is obviously an anomaly in the Jin-Sui Army.
Dai Anlan: Eighth place. 200 division commander of the 5th Army. He has participated in Gubeikou Great Wall Anti-Japanese War and Taierzhuang War. In the Battle of Kunlun Pass, he led his troops to fight bloody battles with the Japanese aggressors until he was seriously injured. 1942 as the vanguard of the expeditionary force, went to Burma to fight. In the famous battle of defending Donggua, he led his own army to fight against enemies several times his own, and annihilated more than 5,000 Japanese invaders, which caused great repercussions at home and abroad. Later, he led 200 divisions to recover Tangji. The expeditionary force was forced to retreat to China because of the command error of its superior, and was ambushed by the Japanese army on the way. Dai Anlan died of his injuries and died heroically. The relationship with Du is very similar to that between Zhang and Wang. The two officers had the same ending, but the two men who were both famous anti-Japanese soldiers had completely different endings, which made people feel deeply.
Zhang: Ninth place. 58th division commander of 74th Army. Zhang became famous three times, once for killing his wife before the Anti-Japanese War, and once as one of the few senior generals of the national army killed by our army in the War of Liberation (Chiang Kai-shek once honored Zhang as the first martyr of the Republic of China). This is not a glorious thing. Zhang Yisheng's most glorious thing is that during the eight-year anti-Japanese war, he followed Wang to resist Japan almost every year and made outstanding achievements repeatedly. Especially in the battle of Wanjialing, Zhang, as the head of the team, led a small group of troops to sneak attack on Zhangjiashan in Dean, and then held this position for several days and nights. He was seriously injured and wiped out thousands of Japanese invaders, which played a vital role in Wanjialing's victory. Afterwards, Guo Moruo specially sent Tian Han as a screenwriter and praised Dean's victory. Zhang starred in the play under his real name and became popular all over the world at one time.
Wang: Tenth place. Commander of the 74th Army. Participated in the Battle of Shanghai and Nanjing in 37 years. In 38 years, he participated in the battle of Wanjialing in Wuhan. In 39 years, he participated in the Nanchang Battle and the first Changsha Battle. In 4 1 year, he commanded the 74th Army to take part in the Battle of Shanggao, which severely damaged the Japanese aggressors and was known as the Anti-Japanese Iron Army. Since then, he has participated in the second and third battles in Changsha, Zhejiang and Jiangxi, Western Hubei, Changde and Heng Chang. In 45 years, he commanded the last battle of China Army in the Anti-Japanese War-Xuefeng Mountain Battle in Xiangxi. From the beginning of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression to the end of the Anti-Japanese War, Wang went to the Anti-Japanese War every year, with almost no service, and his record was quite good. Wang is smart and clear-headed, and is called one of the few wise men in the Kuomintang by senior generals of the Communist Party of China.
