The Southern Heavenly King who ruled Guangdong for eight years - the legendary figure Chen Jitang (7) Doing his best to defend Hainan in times of danger Yu Yushu In 1947, the three regiments of the Kuomintang army under Chiang Kai-shek's regime, boasting a strength of 200,000, were fought in Shandong with nine columns of the young general Li Yu under Chen Yi of the East China Field Army of the Communist Party of China under the command of his beloved generals Gu Zhutong and Tang Enbo. They suffered heavy losses. The reorganized 74th Division with all American equipment was completely wiped out, and the division commander Zhang Lingfu committed suicide. Although Chiang Kai-shek is arrogant, he has always been scheming and calculating. He has made arrangements for Taiwan Province, which is separated from mainland China by the Gulf Strait, and Hainan Island, which is separated by the narrower Qiongzhou Strait. In addition to sending Chen Cheng to replace him, who caused a bloody storm in Taiwan during the February 28th Incident, later in addition to Chen Yi, Sun Liren was sent to Fengshan Military Academy in southern Taiwan to open the fourth officer training class. As for Hainan Island, in 1947, Army General Chen Jitang, who had resigned due to the "Guangdong-Guangxi Incident", was again appointed as the chief executive and security commander of the Hainan Special Administrative Region and the commander-in-chief of Hainan's defense. By the end of 1949, Xue Yue, a famous general from Western Guangdong, took over as the Commander-in-Chief of Hainan Defense. Chen Jitang was originally from Fangcheng, so most of his subordinates were from Gaolei (Gaozhou and Leizhou), which was only separated from Hainan Island by a water. In 1947, when Chen Jitang was in danger and was appointed, he naturally did not dare to neglect, so he summoned his old subordinates and close relatives, and still used the Chen family as his team to serve as the capital of his tenure as the chief executive of Hainan. Among them is his younger brother Chen Jinan. Chen Jinan was educated at an orthodox military academy. After graduating from the Huangpu Army Accelerated School, he went to Japan to study abroad and graduated from the 23rd Cavalry Course. He later graduated from the General School of the Central Army University in Chongqing. In 1948, he was called to Hainan Island by Brother Nai and served as the guard brigade commander of the Hainan Defense Headquarters. Later, he served as the temporary commander of the 13th Division; Chen Jitang's tenth son, Captain Chen Shubai, was appointed as the guard company commander; Chen Jitang's son-in-law Jiang Maosen He was given the title of Major General and was appointed as the Director of Finance of the Chief Executive's Office of the Hainan Special Administrative Region; Chen Jitang's rebel general at that time opposed his separation from the Nanjing Central Committee and became the commander-in-chief of the independent Seventh War Zone. Yu Hanmou, a lucky general from Guangdong who was promoted to a second-level general, was appointed as the Hainan Special Administrative Region Chief Executive's Office. The deputy chief of the Administrative Office of the South Zone became his assistant. Another favorite general of Chen Jitang, Lieutenant General Li Jingyang, known as "brave", served as the deputy commander-in-chief and chief of staff of the Hainan Defense Headquarters; the former Major General Huang Deyi was appointed as the senior counselor of the headquarters. In addition to the limited navy and air force, there were also a small number of national troops under Liu Anqi, a direct force of Chiang Kai-shek. With limited troops, it may be more than enough to deal with Feng Baiju's Turkish Communist troops in Wuzhi Mountain. However, when the two Communist divisions of Lin Biao's Fourth Field Army attacked with thousands of sails, even the famous general Xue Boling had no way to save the day. Chen Jitang boarded the plane and flew to Taiwan under the cover of a desperate and bloody battle led by his tenth son, Captain Chen Shubai, who led a guard company composed of all new recruits. Everything in Hainan Island has become a fleeting smoke, and only one "Xiuying Fort" named after his beloved concubine remains.
