There have been thousands of heroes since ancient times, but these admirable big people are not only good boys with bloody fanggang, but also many heroes. In that era of male superiority and female inferiority, it is really remarkable that they can rely on their own extraordinary abilities to break through their own extraordinary achievements.
In the modern era when wars are raging and the masses are rising, more outstanding and strange women have risen and achieved extraordinary achievements in their lives, and many of them have also made tremendous contributions to the revolutionary cause of our party.
For example, today's protagonist, although he was born prominently, did not give up the pursuit of ideals, made a difference at a young age, and what is more rare is that she and Ye Shuai composed a love marriage, but unfortunately the two did not accompany each other for a lifetime. After ending this marriage, she raised her son alone, and she was able to create a lot of merit in the construction of new China, which is really rare, this person is Zeng Xianzhi.
Prominent origins
In 1910, Zeng Xianzhi was born in BaishuTang, Zengfu, Changsha Province, Hunan Province, and his ancestral home was Heye Town, Xiangxiang County. Seeing this place name, many people will think of Zeng Guofan, a heavy minister at the end of the Qing Dynasty, and Zeng Xianzhi's great-grandfather was Zeng Guofan's younger brother Zeng Guoquan.
When he was young, Zeng Guoquan was talented, and he wanted to go to Beijing to participate in the scientific expedition to become famous in one fell swoop, but he did not expect that the Taiping Army blocked his way north. Since this was the case, he simply abandoned his pen and assisted his brother Zeng Guofan in preparing for the xiang army. The road to career is not feasible, but with martial arts to enter the official field, and high in the rank of a pin master, life is quite legendary.
Shortly after Zeng Xianzhi's birth, the Qing court collapsed, but the influence of the Zeng family was still very large, which also provided a good childhood life for Zeng Xianzhi.
Life is worry-free, but under the teachings of zu xun, Zeng Xianzhi excelled in his studies and was admitted to the Hunan Provincial First Girls' Normal School. At this time, she not only ranked among the best in her grades, but also had a wide range of interests, had deep achievements in Peking Opera performances, and was even the main force of the school basketball team. Tall and tall, she became a beautiful landscape on the basketball court. If it wasn't a girls' school, presumably her pursuers would fill the campus.
Admitted to the Whampoa Military Academy
Shortly after the restoration of Wuhan in 1926, the Wuhan Huangpu Branch Was also announced, especially after the opening of the school to recruit students, which immediately caused a sensation. Because this was the first time that Huangpu had recruited female trainees, public opinion at that time even used "earth-shattering" to describe this matter.
Zeng Xianzhi heard this news, and also joined the ranks of the registration, she was outstanding in learning and physical fitness, and successfully passed the layers of assessment and became the first batch of female trainees in Huangpu. The origins of the Whampoa women's team students are different, many of them come from rich and noble families, but it is said that Zeng Xianzhi's origin is the most prominent.
Zeng Xianzhi is tall, handsome, wearing a military uniform to make her beauty unique, coupled with her special origin, became the most concerned female cadet in the sixth phase of Huangpu, and even some people called her "Huangpu School Flower".
What is commendable to everyone is that Zeng Xianzhi did not have the posture of "Miss Zengfu" at all, when the girls' team participated in the Western Expedition, Zeng Xianzhi took care of the wounded without fear of suffering, not afraid of tiredness, and what dirty work was rushed to do, her outstanding performance was in everyone's eyes, even if she was not convinced before, now she is treated differently, and the company commander praises it endlessly:
"This big lady from the door, once on the battlefield, can also become a model for everyone, worthy of being a heroic female soldier."
Marriage to Ye Shuai
In July 1927, the Wuhan Huangpu Branch School was suspended, the trainees went to various places, and the sixth term students who joined our party were organized into the teaching group, and the leader of the group was Ye Jianying, which can also be said to be a revolutionary contingent directly controlled by our party. At that time, Zeng Xianzhi served as a warrant officer clerk.
A few months later, under the leadership of Ye Shuai, the teaching group (at this time Li Yunpeng was the leader) participated in the Guangzhou Uprising, but unfortunately this uprising soon failed, and Zeng Xianzhi followed Ye Shuai to Hong Kong. At this time, although Ye Shuai was more than a decade older than her, he could not stop the spiritual exchange between the two, and soon Zeng Xianshi's heart was captured by Ye Shuai, and in early 1928 the two became a revolutionary couple in Hong Kong.
Life after marriage is happy, but soon to face separation. At that time, the organization arranged for the couple to go to the Soviet Union to study, and all the preparations were made, but before leaving, they found that there were not enough places. Zeng Xianzhi took the initiative to give up her quota and leave it to people she thought were better than herself.
Zeng Xianzhi, who remained in Shanghai, was unfortunately arrested during a patriotic movement, but fortunately her identity as a party member was not revealed, and she was rescued by the party organization and regained her freedom. In view of her safety considerations, the organization sent her to Japan, but she was arrested by the Japanese authorities as soon as she got off the ship, fortunately, the other party was an admirer of Zeng Guofan, and heard that she was a descendant of the Zeng clan, and did not embarrass her, but sent her out of the country.
After Ye Jianying returned to China in 1931, the husband and wife had a small gathering for a while, because the husband was transferred to the Central Soviet District, the husband and wife could only tearfully part ways again, until after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, they met in Wuhan, that is, at this time, Zeng Xianzhi became pregnant, and later gave birth to a son in Hong Kong, named Ye Xuanning.
Think of the two people since 1928 married, suffering from separation between the two places, as if it is just the name of a husband and wife, but Zeng Xianzhi's feelings for her husband have not changed. In 1941, the organization arranged for her to study in Yan'an, and At this time Ye Shuai was working in Yan'an. Unexpectedly, Ye Shuai, who had missed her for a long time, had already married her at this time, and even had already given birth to a daughter.
It is conceivable how big the blow to Zeng Xianzhi was at that time, but Zeng Xianzhi, who had a good upbringing, did not make a big fuss, but chose not to disturb them, and turned the unwillingness in his heart into a driving force for work.
Over the years, she has been in charge of women's liberation work, and has remained in the Women's Federation since the founding of the People's Republic of China, working for more than 40 years until retirement. At the beginning, she started as deputy secretary-general and gradually rose to vice chairman of the women's federation and became a deputy ministerial leader.
Zeng Xianzhi, who is in a high position, has been living an ordinary and simple life for decades, and a hut in the corner of the women's federation compound is where she and her son have lived for decades.
"A modest cottage, a small table, four small benches, a honeycomb coal stove" is a few simple words, but it includes all the furniture of her house.
Although there was no perfect marriage, there was a brilliant career and a proud son, who was awarded the rank of major general many years later, but a year later Zeng was old and left this world.
