Chen Cheng nodded: "Well said, he is really a general, much faster than I developed back then, I graduated at the age of eighteen, joined the army, and only now have I survived to become a general, but you are young, only about thirty, you can actually serve as the commander-in-chief of the former enemy, the commander of the group army, according to the military rank, you should also be a lieutenant general" Xu Hongying smiled and said: "What will not be a general, as long as I am allowed to fight, it is to be an ordinary veteran, and I am also willing to serve for me, it does not matter to me, What I want is that the people of the whole country live and work in peace and contentment, no matter rich or poor, as long as they are happy every day, they will not be traumatized by the war" Chen Cheng praised: "Not bad, young people have such ambitions, it's not simple, Lao Luo, you also follow the learning, prepare a table of good wine and food, I want to have a good chat with the Red Eagle brother, the wine is a thousand cups of confidants, today we will cook wine and talk about heroes, do you think it is good" Xu Hongying waved his hand and said: "Heroes can't be talked about, in my eyes, Only the toiling masses can really be regarded as heroes, and we, the people who carry guns to defend the country, are just a pawn and no ordinary people, where do we eat and wear, they are what we mean parents" "Hahaha is a little interesting, it's really a good thing to listen to your words, it's better to read for ten years, come on, please take a seat" "General Chen, please" The two of them sat down, and Luo Zihan accompanied them.Speaking of this Chen Cheng, everyone in the soldiers at that time knew about it, and Xu Hongying knew it very thoroughly from the book, because he felt that Chen Cheng was still a person who had made significant contributions to the motherland.Chen Cheng, the word is repaired, and the number is Shisuo.Born on January 4, 1898 in Qingtian County, Zhejiang Province, he successively entered Gaoshi Primary School, Lishui Zhejiang Provincial No. 11 Middle School and Zhejiang Provincial No. 11 Normal School, graduated in 1917, and the 20-year-old Chen Cheng married Wu's sister Wu Shunlian through the medium of fellow villager Wu Ziqi.In March 1923, Chen Cheng went to Guangdong with Deng Yanda to participate in the revolution, and in January 1924, he served as the commander of the artillery company.In September, he participated in the Second Eastern Crusade, bombarded Huizhou City, made meritorious contributions, and was promoted to the commander of the Second Artillery Battalion.In mid-February 1925, Chen Cheng's artillery company overwhelmed the rebel firepower in the Battle of Mianhu, turning the tide of the battle into a safe one.In the first battle of Mianhu, the unknown Chen Cheng was appreciated by Chiang Kai-shek and He Yingqin.In July 1926, the Guangzhou Nationalist Government decided to send troops to the Northern Expedition and formed the General Headquarters of the National Revolutionary Army with Chiang Kai-shek as the commander-in-chief.Chen Cheng served as a lieutenant colonel and staff officer of the General Headquarters of the National Revolutionary Army.In early 1928, Chiang Kai-shek made a comeback.In April, Chiang appointed Chen Cheng as the commander of the guard of the General Headquarters of the National Revolutionary Army.In April 1930, in the battle between Chiang, Yan and Feng Zhongyuan, he served as the deputy commander of the Second Army of the Rebel Army.He led the 11th Division to attack Jinan, and in August, he was promoted to the commander of the 18th Army and became the ace army of Chiang Kai-shek's descendants.After the end of the Central Plains War, he was sent to Jiangxi to participate in the "encirclement and suppression" of the CCP's revolutionary base areas.In September 1939, the Japanese army responded to the main force of northern Hunan with the two routes of northern Jiangxi and southern Hunan, and attacked Changsha.Chen Cheng was ordered to arrive in Hunan with Bai Chongxi to assist Xue Yue in commanding the battle.Before leaving, he proposed that Changsha "guard" and "not keep", and was criticized for "not keeping".Therefore, as soon as he arrived at Lukou, he conveyed Chiang Kai-shek's will to Xue Yue.Xue disagreed, and said: "Changsha is not guarded, what is the duty of a soldier" Although overnight, nine times called Xue to withdraw from Changsha, but Xue did not listen.Chen Cheng was afraid that arguing with each other for too long would hinder the opportunity, so after asking Xue about the situation of the troops, he agreed with Bai on the one hand and ordered Xue Yue to counterattack; On the one hand, he reported Xue's determination and the situation at that time to Chiang Kai-shek.The first victory of the War of Resistance in Northern Hunan was achieved.aa2705221:
