Taiwan Province province's surrender slogan

1in April, 943, the 24th Army suffered heavy losses under the large-scale encirclement and suppression of the Japanese army, and the commander-in-chief Pang Bingxun was also captured. Later, he defected to the enemy and became the commander of the puppet 24th Army and a Japanese puppet traitor.

In fact, Pang Bingxun was very commendable in the early days of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. After the July 7th Incident broke out, Pang Bingxun volunteered and led his troops south to resist Japan. When passing through Shijiazhuang, the train of the troops broke down and was ready to be repaired, but Pang Bingxun said, "The Japanese are killing the people of China ahead, and we can't wait a minute. All the soldiers marched on orders! "

The most famous battle in Pang Bingxun is Taierzhuang. Pang Bingxun led the 40th Corps of the Army to defend Linyi, Shandong Province, and confronted the powerful Banyuan division known as the "Steel Knife" of the Japanese army. The bitter tug-of-war lasted five days and five nights.

At the height of the fighting, the troops suffered heavy casualties. His subordinates advised him to retreat quickly, but Pang Bingxun said, "I was a cripple in Pang Bingxun, and I have no worries. Who can take part in defending the country during the Anti-Japanese War is born lucky! If we can add a glorious page to the history of China's revival, that is certainly my wish. Even if the story of our heroic sacrifice is written in the history of national subjugation, it is worthy of our ancestors! "

In the end, Pang Bingxun resisted the Japanese bombardment with flesh and blood, and held the position, leaving less than one brigade in the 40th Army.

During the First World War in Taierzhuang, Pang Bingxun led the troops to play the role of a soldier in China, and fought with the elite Ryuichi Sakamoto division of the Japanese army three times, without letting his opponent take advantage. After the battle, Li Zongren wrote in the battle report: "After several days of fighting and killing, the enemy could not cross the defense line. At that time, dozens of Chinese and foreign journalists and friendly military attache were stationed in Xuzhou to watch the war. Everyone can't think of the best "imperial army" and is frustrated with the little-known "miscellaneous" troops in Zhinan. At one time, there were rumors at home and abroad, and colors were everywhere. "

After the war, Pang Bingxun was awarded the Medal of Righteousness for his work, and became an anti-Japanese hero admired by the whole country.

Then, why is such an anti-Japanese hero willing to defect as a traitor?

There is a saying that when Pang Bingxun was besieged by the Japanese army, Dai Li sent someone to contact him secretly, saying that this was Chiang Kai-shek's secret order. Don't make unnecessary sacrifices, save your strength and wait for opportunities.

This sentence was said by Wang, a confidential staff officer of Pang Bingxun. As for whether it is true or not, there is no conclusion yet.

In addition to this reason, there is another important reason, so I have to mention a Japanese-Tetsuo Tanaka, then vice captain and second lieutenant of the 220th Infantry Wing of the 35th Division of Okamura Ningji.

Although Tetsuo Tanaka's position is not high, he graduated from East Asia Wentong College in Japan and used to be a spy. He is quite familiar with the situation in China, and he and Pang Bingxun had an intersection as early as the early 1940s.

At that time, Okamura Ningji served as the commander-in-chief of the Japanese army in North China, and Tetsuo Tanaka was also mainly responsible for intelligence gathering in the region, while Pang Bingxun's headquarters happened to be located in North China, so the two sides had "arms friendship" from time to time. However, although Tetsuo Tanaka wrote to Pang Bingxun many times to persuade him to surrender, all failed, and the situation did not change until April 1943.

In the chaos, Pang Bingxun, his son, guards and others were separated from the big army. They originally wanted to hide in the cave to avoid danger, but they were discovered by the Japanese under the betrayal of Sun Dianying, so Tetsuo Tanaka got off the bus.

Tetsuo Tanaka is familiar with China culture and has dealt with Pang Bingxun for many years. He quickly grasped Pang Bingxun's "seven inches", made a detailed analysis of the current situation, and promised to give preferential treatment after surrender. Finally, under his golden words, Pang Bingxun decided to surrender.

A little lieutenant successfully won an army general. This news instantly detonated the domestic and foreign media, and Tetsuo Tanaka became the toast of the Japanese army for a time.

Even Okamura Ningji, after hearing about Tetsuo Tanaka's surrender, personally came to award him military service, and even sent someone to make a saber from Japan and present it to Tetsuo Tanaka.

As for Pang Bingxun, although he became a traitor, he didn't do many bad things. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, he took the initiative to call Chiang Kai-shek, hoping to make contributions by apologizing. Chiang Kai-shek also let bygones be bygones and accepted him.

1949, Pang Bingxun followed Chiang Kai-shek to Taiwan Province Province, but he couldn't stand being reused. He opened a restaurant to make a living and lived to 1963 at the age of 84.
