Zhang Zizhong s family letter before he died in the war, how Zhang Zizhong died

The country has reached such a point that there is no other way but to die for it. I also believe that as long as we can make this determination, our country and our nation with a history of 5,000 years will never die at the hands of the Japanese slaves of the three islands. The determination to die for the country and the nation will not change in the slightest.

There are several such things: 656566565656

It's okay to investigate.

Someone gave up.

Zhang Zizhong died during the Battle of Zaoyi, under the onslaught of the Japanese army and aircraft artillery, Zhang Zizhong's troops were annihilated, and Zhang Zizhong also died heroically for the country in this battle.

In 1940, in order to control the traffic along the Yangtze River, the Japanese army tried to block the transportation route to Chongqing, so it gathered 300,000 troops to launch the Battle of Zaoyi. At that time, on the west bank of the Xiang River, only two regiments of the 33rd Army of our army were stationed and garrisoned. Zhang Zizhong, as the commander-in-chief, did not have to personally lead the troops into battle, but he insisted on attacking and leaving the deputy commander to defend.

On 1 May, Zhang Zizhong summoned his troops to attack, and at dawn on 7 July, Zhang Zizhong's troops crossed the Xiang River and marched north. On 14 May, the two sides met and fought. On the 15th, more than 6,000 Japanese soldiers besieged more than 1,500 people led by Zhang Zizhong in the village of Gouyanli, and fierce fighting broke out between the two sides, until dawn on the 16th, Zhang Zizhong's troops were forced to retreat to the Pumpkin Shop Shili Changshan.

However, what I didn't expect was that after that, the Japanese army was dispatched; The aircraft artillery, and under the condition that the aircraft artillery suppressed Zhang Zizhong's troops, nine charges were launched in a row, resulting in the heavy personnel of Zhang Zizhong's troops.

On 16 May, Zhang Zizhong had been sticking to his post to direct the battle, even if his left arm was injured, he did not pay attention, and by two o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, Zhang Zizhong had only a few hundred men left under his command, and he transferred all the guards to the front, leaving only eight staff officers and other eight people by his side. At four o'clock in the afternoon of 16 May, Zhang Zizhong's troops were all sacrificed, and Zhang Zizhong also died on the battlefield for the country.

In April 1940, the Japanese army concentrated 300,000 troops to attack Suixian and Zaoyang areas in northern Hubei again. At that time, only 2 regiments of the 74th Division of the 33rd Army were stationed on the west bank of the Xiang River. As the commander-in-chief of the group army with the rank of lieutenant general, Zhang Zizhong did not have to personally lead his troops to attack and fight, but despite the repeated dissuasion of his troops, he insisted that Feng Zhi'an, deputy commander-in-chief, stay on the west bank of the Xianghe River, while he personally led the only two remaining regiments and the special service battalion directly under the general headquarters to cross the river to fight.

On May 1, 1940, Zhang Zizhong personally wrote an edict to the generals of his department: "Looking at the recent situation, the enemy may come to touch the nail again, as long as the enemy comes, my brother will go to Hedong to die with my brother." The country has reached such a point that there is no other way but to die for us.

I also believe that as long as we can make this determination, our country and our nation with a history of 5,000 years will never die at the hands of the Japanese slaves of the three islands. The determination to die for the country and the nation will not change in the slightest. I would like to encourage you with all my brothers.

On the evening of May 6, Zhang Zizhong personally left a will for Deputy Commander-in-Chief Feng Zhi'an, further expressing his determination to repay the country with death. The book says: "Because of the relationship between the all-out war in the theater and its own responsibility, it is necessary to cross the river and fight with the enemy.

No matter whether you do good or bad, you must ask your conscience to be comforted, and in the future, you will have to ask my brother to be responsible for both public and private affairs. From now on, it is not known whether it will be a temporary departure or an eternal departure. ”

The two letters have the fearless spirit of "the wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man will never return", and later it was also praised as "the will of loyalty and righteousness, and the spirit of heroism" of the two suicide notes.

On November 16, 1940, Zhang Zizhong was confined to Yutai Mountain, Chongqing as a state funeral. Later, Feng Yuxiang planted plum blossoms beside the tomb, and modeled after the Yangzhou Plum Blossom Ridge where Shi Kefa was buried in the Ming Dynasty, and renamed this mountain Plum Blossom Mountain.

On December 31, 1942, the national ** was enshrined in the National Martyrs' Shrine, and in August 1944, Yicheng County was renamed Zizhong County to commemorate it.

On March 13, 1947, Beiping City issued an order to change the Tieshi Hutong to Zhang Zizhong Road. Later, Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, and Wuhan all set up Zhangzizhong Road.
