Zeng Shi'e was a martyr who died in the anti-encirclement and suppression battle, he was a major division commander in the Red Army, led his troops to participate in various wars, and made great contributions to the establishment of the Jinggangshan revolutionary base area and the victory of the anti-encirclement and suppression war.
Chairman Mao commented that his death was heavier than Mount Tai. Because he led the team to crush the Kuomintang army at the most critical moment of the third anti-encirclement and suppression battle, causing them to flee into the wilderness, but he also died in that battle.
He was an excellent cadre in the ranks, and his sacrifice was a huge loss to the Red Army team, and Xiao Hua, one of the founding generals, later commented that if he could survive, he should also be one of the founding marshals.
From the old China to the new China, it took a total of one century for the Chinese people, and in this century, China experienced all kinds of wars, smoke and artillery, China's mountains and rivers became fragmented, and the Chinese people were not happy, but in the end, the Chinese people still expelled the iron hooves of the great powers from China's land.
And to build a brand new, future-filled China. In this process, countless revolutionary martyrs have sacrificed their lives for this purpose. There are too many revolutionary ancestors in China, and some of them have survived the war and seen the development of new China.
But more revolutionary ancestors fell directly on the battlefield, and they did not even have time to take a look at the tomorrow of new China that they had exchanged their precious lives for, and among such revolutionary ancestors was Zeng Shi'e. Zeng Shi'e was born in Hunan at the beginning of the Republic of China, he was born in a peasant family, and his ancestors had been supporting their families through farming for generations, so the family situation was very poor.
But even so, his parents sent him to school in order to let him have a job, and after graduating from primary school, because the family really couldn't come up with money, so he dropped out of school for a while to apprentice to others, and then his parents asked the patriarch for help, and only then did he get the support of the whole village, which enabled Zeng Shi'e to continue his studies.
He went to school with the hope of the whole village, and then he encountered something in school. Some foreigners in the school insulted Chinese female students, but the school authorities simply appeased the female students and did not give foreigners the punishment they deserved, which made Zeng Shi'e feel very angry, so he led hundreds of students to carry out a suspension activity.
He was 20 years old at the time, and because of the bad impact on the school, he was also dropped out. After dropping out of school, he was introduced to a civilian staff member. Later, the Northern Expeditionary Army passed through his hometown, which also changed the direction of Zeng Shi'e's life, and Zeng Shi'e, who was born in a peasant family, has always been very afraid of the warlords.
Because in his impression, the warlord often exploited the peasants and ordinary people, but he did not expect that the team of the Northern Expeditionary Army he encountered this time was a team of military discipline and good treatment of the common people. So he got his mind on his mind, joined the team, and became a Member of the Chinese Communist Party, when he was 22 years old.
After Zeng Shi'e first entered the communist ranks, he entered the Whampoa School to study, and in the past few years he worked very hard, and he made great progress in both ideology and strategy and tactics. He then took part in the Northern Expedition, after which he mainly engaged in guard work, and he was a member of the guard regiment.
Throughout the course of his work, he firmly followed Chairman Mao's footsteps, including participating in the Autumn Harvest Uprising and establishing the Jinggangshan Revolutionary Base Area. However, at that time, due to the Kuomintang's poor pursuit and fierce fighting, the situation of the Communist Party was very bad, and even for a time it led to the feeling that some of the communist ranks were scattered.
It was at such a critical juncture that Zeng Shi'e and several other comrades stood up and expressed their support for all of Chairman Mao's decisions, and they made great contributions to the establishment of the Jinggangshan revolutionary base area. At that time, Chiang Kai-shek was very worried about the development momentum of the Communist Party, so he mobilized 300,000 troops to try to annihilate the Communist Party in the Central Military Region in one fell swoop.
In order to preserve the revolutionary strength, the Red Army team carried out three anti-encirclement and suppression wars. The first two anti-encirclement and suppression wars occurred when Zeng Shi'e was 26 years old, when he was already a division commander in the Red Army, leading his own team to participate in the battle many times, and each time rushing to the forefront.
Later, it came to the third anti-encirclement and suppression battle, in which Zeng Shi'e and other comrades led their troops to completely annihilate the strength of a division of the Kuomintang, which was the famous Longgang Victory in later history. The time turned to the second year, that is, when Zeng Shi'e was 27 years old.
The Red Army's troops won a great victory in the third anti-encirclement and suppression battle, defeating Chiang Kai-shek's Kuomintang troops one by one. At this time, Lin Biao of the Central Military Region wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue, so he arranged for Zeng Shi'e to lead his troops to block the fleeing Kuomintang troops.
It was in the process of blocking the attack that Zeng Shi'e was shot on the battlefield and failed to persist and died on the battlefield. Zeng Shi'e's sacrifice was heroic, and even after he was shot, he saved a breath and told his colleagues around him that he would persist in the revolution to the end. So it's not hard to see that he took revolution as his belief.
Later, when the news of Zeng Shi'e's death came out, Chairman Mao was very sad to learn of it, and when the Red Army contingent held a congratulatory victory meeting after the end of the anti-encirclement and suppression war. Comrade Mao Zedong organized all comrades to observe a moment of silence for Zeng Shi'e, and it is not difficult to see the importance that Chairman Mao attached to him.
Zeng Shi'e has always been a state of daring to fight and fight on the battlefield, and every time he rushes to the front of the battlefield to encourage his comrades-in-arms with his own behavior, the soldiers of the Red Army are also people on the battlefield, and they will also have the psychology of fear.
But it was precisely because of zeng Shi'e's example that the Red Army team was invincible. Later, Xiao Hua, one of the founding marshals, also commented on Zeng Shi'e, saying that if he could survive the war, then he should also be one of the founding marshals.
Zeng Shi'e was born in a peasant family, and in that era the peasants lived at the bottom of society, and were exploited and oppressed from various aspects of bureaucracy, warlords and foreign powers, which made Zeng Shi'e want to fight for the people to have a good life from an early age.
With the help of the villagers, he reluctantly finished his studies, and later he joined the Red Army and began his own road to save the country, he took the revolution as his faith, and did what he said, and paid with his life for it. Such revolutionary martyrs deserve to be remembered by all.
