On the evening of October April 2, CCTV Channel 2 played the documentary "China Expeditionary Force", which gave you a feeling.
The surviving veteran said, "I will be incompetent, and the three armies will be affected." It is said that DU lawing's incompetence has left China's expeditionary force at no cost to sacrifice 50 thousand people. The veteran also mentioned that General Sun liren had almost retreated from the entire army to India in violation of commands.
In the same circumstances, du Ruian and Sun liren made completely different decisions. The surviving veteran mentioned two words: "Pride ". Du Liming's personal pride made his subordinates pay a painful price. General Sun liren dared to save his personal lives while preserving soldiers. The play also mentioned du Liming's different background from Sun liren. Du graduated from the Whampoa Military Academy. President Jiang's family may be proud to make du openly break with the Americans, it is also natural to defeat the savage mountains by following the commands of President Jiang. Sun liren is an American military school. Perhaps sun is influenced by the Humanistic Spirit of the United States. More attention is given to "people", so that every soldier's life is far more important than obeying President Jiang's command.
I think the problem may also be in our traditional Chinese culture, which lacks respect for individual life and human rights. Our old culture emphasizes the so-called benevolence and morality, and the benevolence and righteousness in it is nothing more than the pride of the civil class. However, I still do not have enough arguments to prove this point. Sometimes I want to start from the evolution of Hunan Culture in the Ming and Qing dynasties and learn about the traditional Confucian culture through Hunan culture.
