Is Wu a bear or a hero?

This man is defined as a warlord or a bad guy in our textbooks, which is well known. It was he who was cut in the Northern Expedition.

Maybe this man didn't do much good, but he is definitely not as bad as we thought when we read history books as children.

The first family, as a big warlord, controlled hundreds of thousands of troops, but in fact Wu was not corrupt or plundered, and strict self-discipline was indeed honest and clean, and Wu managed the army very well. 1924. 9. 8 why time magazine chose him as its cover proves that his influence is not small.

Second, Wu is the body of steel in China. After he stepped down, the Japanese repeatedly threatened and lured Wu to become a senior official of the Japanese government. Wu resolutely rejected and condemned the ugly behavior of the Japanese.

Third, Wu, as a great warlord, was beaten in the Northern Expedition, so his badness was magnified, and his goodness was deliberately reduced, so we usually forget his goodness, so in everyone's impression, he was a villain.

Fourth, as a soldier, he is a warlord and a soldier. In that special era, he tried to do his duty as a soldier. He didn't rely on his own strength to bully the weak and fear the hard to enrich himself, nor did he do anything to betray the country and seek glory. So to a certain extent, this is a respectable person, although not necessarily good!

Note: It was a special era. Some bad people in that era actually did many things that the so-called good people could not do.

Zhang, for example, resolutely refused to make peace with the Japanese and punished foreigners who committed crimes in the Northeast by some seemingly dark means!

For example, Cao Kun's presidency was bought at a high price, but when the Japanese finally invaded, they hoped to use his prestige to make him the leader of the puppet regime, and he also refused verbally.

For example, the so-called traitor Chen Jiongming, who is not very clever, turned a shabby Guangzhou into a model city.

Sun refused to eat meat because his subordinates ordered the filming of the parade, and he regretted becoming a vegetarian. When the doctor told him that if you don't eat meat supplements, you will die because of lack of nutrition. He refused to eat meat and eventually died.

They may not be that good, but they are definitely not that bad!
