After watching the movie "1942", many people will feel that this movie is very real, and even completely based on real historical events. Some people only know the original after watching this movie. In Henan in 1942 there was such a catastrophe.
However, after watching this movie, I found that although the movie "1942" was adapted from real historical events, there are still things that are not in line with history in this movie. Bad people are good people, good people are bad people.
regards bad people as good people. This person is Li Peiji. In the film, Li Peiji, played by Li Xuejian, told Jiang Dingwen, played by Yu Zhen , that there was a severe drought in Henan this year, and that 30 million load of military rations is really difficult for this government to collect. Qi... Later, Li Peiji went to Chongqing to prepare to report the famine outbreak in Henan to Chiang Kai-shek .
But do you know what Li Peiji did after the Henan famine broke out in history?
In January 1942, Li Peiji was elected as the chairman of Henan Provincial Government . Shortly after taking office, the famine in Henan developed into an unmanageable situation. Even if the famine in Henan had risen to an uncontrollable situation, and millions of refugees were starving, Li Peiji still They chose to conceal the disaster and refused to report it. Why did Li Peiji hide the disaster? There are the following reasons:
First, he dare not. The reason for the famine in Henan was that in 1938, Chiang Kai-shek ordered the Huayuankou Yellow River Embankment to be blasted. Since then, millions of fertile fields have been in disarray, and the 400-kilometer-long Huangfan District has also greatly increased the number of victims. If Li Peiji reported it, then What he means is that the famine that broke out in Henan was caused by you, Chairman Jiang;
2. His miscalculation of the disaster. He believes that the immediate disaster is still a temporary disaster, and it will be relieved after the autumn harvest of grain. However, the fact is that Henan has once again been hit by a severe drought and a locust plague. Completely out of tricks;
3. In order to keep the black gauze hat on his head . At that time, it was the most difficult time of the National Anti-Japanese War. At this time, I went to Chiang Kai-shek to complain. Isn't this proof of my incompetence? If he is delayed at this critical time, will his career still be smooth sailing?
The Henan famine killed more than 5 million people, but Li Peiji reported that only 1,602 people died of starvation.
In 1944, Li Peiji was removed from the position of chairman and security commander of Henan Province.
treats good people as bad people. This person is Jiang Dingwen. When Li Peiji complained to him in the film, Jiang Dingwen said this to Li Peiji. I agree, but you have to help me with two things. They don't want to attack Henan. The second is to ask the chairman to transfer my army to the west of Tongguan. I will never eat a grain of grain from Henan again. It can be seen from this that Jiang Dingwen does not care about the life and death of the victims, but is this really the case in history?
in HenanDuring the famine, Jiang Dingwen, the commander of the first theater, called on the soldiers to eat less 2 taels a day to ease the pressure on the people, and expressed the hope that the government would transfer food from other places. He sent someone to Chongqing to find He Yingqin to report the disaster, but the local government did not The report of the army was obviously invalid, and the two reports were in disagreement. Of course, the government also took the local government's report as the standard. As a result, Chiang Kai-shek believed Li Peiji's false report and reprimanded Jiang Dingwen's true report.
