Since ancient times, the number of women in the military is very rare, and there are very few brilliant achievements, so everyone looks at the heroes of the towel, and the "Mulan" in the military is even more praised. There is such a family, which is the highest rank in the world, the wife is the world's first female lieutenant general, the husband is a general, and the father is a founding marshal, and this female lieutenant general is Nie Li.
First, his father was a founding marshal and made important contributions to the reform of the modern army
Nie Li was born into a military family, and his father was Marshal Nie Rongzhen, one of the founding marshals. Nie Shuai did not need to say much, in the Battle of Pingxingguan, he commanded the battle as a deputy division commander, engaged in a short white-knife hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese army, successfully ambushed the Japanese invaders, killed more than 1,000 Japanese troops, destroyed more than 100 cars, and broke the myth of the invincibility of the Japanese army!
But what is less known is that this Nie Shuai has an only daughter named Nie Li. At that time, for the revolutionary cause, Nie Li was sent out for foster care shortly after birth, and in order not to expose the actual nie shuai's daughter, he also used a pseudonym and lived with a poor family. Nie Shuai has been keeping his daughter's small photos in his chest pocket for more than a decade. Nie Li was very independent in his childhood without his father and mother.
Second, the hard years have sharpened the character of perseverance
Although he was born in a military family, his parents did not hesitate for the revolutionary cause, and Nie Shuai returned to the base area when his daughter was a child, and when Nie Li was 3 years old, her mother and she were imprisoned. Although Nie Li, who was only 3 years old at the time, was intimidated by the enemy, he did not cry or make trouble at that time, and the enemy did not take out a single message from the mouth of this child.
When Nie Li was 5 years old, he was sent to foster care in a shanghai worker family, which had many children, and Nie Li was very sensible. At the age of 12, she went to work as a child laborer in a spinning mill, never went to school, and had to earn money to take care of children younger than her, and the hard years sharpened her strong character and laid the foundation for her future military career.
Third, I saw my father at the age of 15, and I started school at the age of 17, and I worked very hard all the way
At the age of 15, Nie Licai met his father in the Military Investigation Department in Peiping, and only began to go to school at the age of 17, extremely hard and diligent, after graduating from high school at the age of 23, he was admitted to a school in the Soviet Union, graduated from the Leningrad Academy of Precision Machinery and Optical Instruments, returned to China as a technician in China's first missile research institute, and has been engaged in national defense science and technology work, and has served the country with the knowledge he has learned.
In 1993, she was promoted to lieutenant general, the highest-ranking female jie among the five female generals in China, becoming the first female lieutenant general in the world. Not only that, but her husband Ding Henggao was promoted to general. At this point, their family has become the highest rank family in the world. The wife was the world's first female lieutenant general, the husband was a general, and the father was a marshal.
