Main story

He was born on August 29, 1900 in a scholarly home in Liuzhou, Guangxi. He was intelligent, diligent and honest since childhood, and was deeply loved by his self-motivated father. When he was under four years old, his mother Zhong died. The father was helpless and entrusted him and his sister, who was still to be nursed, to Feng's second aunt. In 1907, he was sent to kaimeng private school by his father at the age of seven. The next year, he entered the second grade primary school in Maping county. In 1913, Kan Weiyong was 13 years old. He graduated from the second grade primary school. Although he was young, he had finished all the primary school courses and read all the books in his family. He especially admired Yue Fei, Wen Tianxiang and other national heroes. He insisted on getting up early and chopping firewood, carrying water, buying vegetables and cooking every day to form the habit of hard work. In 1914, his father took the post of county governor as a student member, and then served as the head of the tax bureau of Pingle county. He married his stepmother, Xie family, and took his children to live with him in Nanning. Therefore, he was admitted to Nanning model school. In 1917, Kan Weiyong graduated from the model school and was admitted to Guangzhou Medical School, seeking to be a doctor who can relieve people's pain. On the eve of the May 4th Movement in 1919, because of the repeated wars in Guangdong and Guangdong, his father was not sure that he was alone and ordered him to drop out of school and go home. After the outbreak of the May 4th movement, he greatly stimulated his patriotic enthusiasm. He believes that "today's warlords are engaged in scuffles, separatist regimes are dominant, the country is between Japan and Africa, education is devastated, and the unarmed class is devastated Wen Guanru was a weak scholar, determined to "change the practice of martial arts, and wanted to play the role of Lu Yang", so he was admitted to the engineering division of Guangxi army lecture hall in Nanning. He studied hard. The next year, after graduating with second place, he followed his father's advice and went home to study hard, waiting for the right time. In 1924, Sun Yat Sen appointed Li Zongren as the commander of the first army and the governor of appeasement in Guangxi. Kan Weiyong was employed by Li Zongren because he was a talented student of Nanning lecture hall, and was appointed as the confidential staff officer of the military headquarters. He took part in the battles of annihilating the Lu Rongting and Shen Hongying departments of the old Guangxi clan and fighting against Tang Jiyao Department of Yunnan army invading Guangxi. In the spring of 1926, the Kuomintang established the first branch of the central military and political school in Nanning (hereinafter referred to as Nanning military school). He was transferred to work in the school and successively served as the deputy, the captain, the instructor and the leader of the engineering team. When Nanning military academy was founded, there was a strong revolutionary atmosphere. He actively advocated the revolutionary program of overthrowing imperialism, warlords, local tyrants and evil gentry. He opposes corporal punishment of students, and believes that "beating people is corporal punishment, and whipping education can easily arouse students' antipathy". He is always kind to his students and is very respected. He was upright and honest. He often warned the students not to embezzle military pay in the future. He said that "it's not only against the law to eat such money, but also not prosperous for future generations.". He also often tells the stories of Yue Fei, Wen Tianxiang and other national heroes to encourage them to be loyal to the country and the nation. In 1927, the Yongwei military academy was detained by the Qingwei warlord. In 1929, Kan Weiyong was transferred to the post of commander of the 15th division of the seventh army of the GUI family of the Kuomintang. In July of the next year, he was promoted to chief of major general of the general staff office of the command of the seventh army, and in August he was appointed chief of major general staff of the 19th division of the seventh army. At the beginning of 1931, he was changed to be the commander of the 36th regiment of the 12th division of the Fourth Army. From March to June of this year, the Guangxi warlord carried out the first "encirclement and suppression" against the Youjiang Revolutionary Base. He was ordered to lead his troops to attack Donglan, which caused great losses and disasters to the Red Army, guerrillas and the people in the Youjiang Revolutionary Base. In November 1932, he was selected to study in the first phase of Nanjing Army Engineering College. After graduating in 1933, he was appointed commander of the 15th military industrial barracks. In view of the rampant situation of Japanese aggressors in Northeast, North and East China, he was filled with righteous indignation. He once wrote a poem: he was determined to clear Liaodong and danced after hearing chickens. Ambition drives out Japanese aggressors, and you have to bear hardships. In 1934, he was appointed captain of the engineering and transportation team of the military academy. In October of the following year, he was appointed as the commander of the communications corps of the fourth group army command. In 1936, he was promoted to head of major general of the communications corps of the fourth group army, and in 1937, he was changed to head of major general and communications corps of the fifth Route Army headquarters. In 1939, Kan Weiyong was admitted to the class B General of the Central Army University of the Kuomintang in Zunyi, Guizhou. He has a wealth of military knowledge, deep professional attainments in engineering, and erudite, not only Qin Qi calligraphy, playing and singing skills, but also fluent writing, in the military enjoy the "Confucian general" reputation. He once wrote a treatise on the world's dangerous generals, quoting classics and elaborating brilliantly, which was appreciated and praised by Bai Chongxi. He wrote: "a strong country is a soldier, a strong soldier is a general, a country without a soldier is a country, and a soldier without a general is a soldier. It's impossible for a country to have no soldiers, especially if there are no generals. The country is so big that if there are no available soldiers, they will die. If there are no generals to control, they will be defeated. " In April 1940, he led his troops to take part in the battle of Kunlun Pass in southern Guangxi. In 1942, he was transferred to the position of major general and division commander of No.131 division of the 31st army, and led the Department to take charge of the defense of Southwest Guangxi. According to the needs of the war, he often organized real combat exercises to improve the combat effectiveness of the troops, and used every bit of time to self-study Japanese, English and Vietnamese, so as to achieve the level of conversation and translation. As a result, he deciphered the secret code of the Japanese army many times, stopped the Japanese army's sneak attacks and attacks, and made brilliant achievements; he compiled a pamphlet "Introduction to Vietnamese" to help his subordinates learn Vietnamese for future combat. In the autumn of 1944, the Japanese invaders lost their fortune in the Pacific battlefield. Then they mobilized the troops to commit crimes in Guangxi along the Hunan Guangxi line, and tried to get through the Chinese mainland's transportation line, and contacted the troops that had been hanging Southeast Asia, so as to continue to fight against it. At this critical moment, Chiang Kai Shek wanted to use the power of the Japanese army to wipe out the non lineal GUI and Yue groups. He ordered Zhang Fakui, the commander of the fourth theater of the Yue Group, to stay in GUI and Liu for three months, while the defense of Guilin was entrusted to the 16th group army of the GUI group led by Xia Wei, and sent Bai Chongxi, the deputy chief of general staff, to Guilin to supervise the war, while Jiang's lineal troops were Chen Bing in Guizhou Training "to preserve strength. Bai Chongxi and Xia Wei saw through Chiang Kai Shek's conspiracy, so they first deployed four divisions of the 31st and 46th armies to defend Guilin. Then, in the name of "offensive defense", they transferred the stronger 188th division (division commander Hai Jingqiang is Bai Chongxi's nephew) and the 175th division (division commander Gan Chengcheng is Xia Wei's nephew) to the periphery to engage in the so-called "mobile warfare". In this way, the troops guarding the Guilin city were only the first 31 divisions led by Kan Wei Yong and the first seven divisions of the new recruits, led by Xu Gaoyang, and one artillery regiment and one antiaircraft gun battalion, with a total of seventeen thousand people. In August 1944, he was ordered to lead his troops to Guilin on foot from Qinzhou and Fangcheng. When he passed Liuzhou, he went home to see him. By this time, his feet were red and swollen, and began to fester. His relatives advised him to take a day or two off before he left. However, he was eager to fight, and he only stayed for less than an hour, so he continued to go north. In the middle of September 1944, he led the first Sany division to Guilin. Wei Yunsong, the commander of urban defense, ordered the first Sany division to take on the defense of the East and the north, and the 170 division to take on the defense of the West and the south. According to the enemy's judgment, the enemy's front forces are as many as seven divisions and regiments, with about 100000 people, and Guilin as the main target. Fighting a well-equipped 100000 enemy with a force of less than 20000 in two divisions is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg. It is impossible to accomplish the task of "sticking to the ground for three months". At that time, many generals thought that it was impossible to resist the well-equipped Japanese army group with such a weak force. Some of them were ready to flee privately. He did not turn a blind eye to such an arrangement. He was clear about it. However,
