Throughout the ages, whenever there is a time of war and chaos, it is easy to produce some talented people, which is the situation to create heroes. At that time, Zhao Kuangyin was just a literati who defected to Guo Wei, because of the establishment of Later Zhou, he only entered the military brigade by chance, holding the military power, and only then would he repeatedly make military achievements in the later crusades against Nantang and become a palace inspector.
It was also with the early preparations that shortly after Emperor Gong of Zhou ascended the throne, he was able to establish the Song Dynasty in the subsequent "Chen Qiao Mutiny" with "yellow robes and body", known in history as the Northern Song Dynasty.
It is undeniable that Zhao Kuangyin was the "hero" created in the chaotic environment of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms at that time, and after he succeeded to the throne, he devoted himself to unifying the whole country, successively destroying the southern separatist regimes such as Jingnan, Wuping, Houshu, Southern Han and Southern Tang, and completing the unification of most of the country.
However, sometimes the idea of creating heroes, there are also the views of "dogs and bears" in the chaotic world, and it is not difficult to imagine that there are still very few heroes in the chaotic world.
For example, the Autumn Harvest Uprising of that year was like this, the commander-in-chief was killed, the deputy commander was imprisoned for 14 years, and the company-level petty officer became the founding marshal.
The background of the uprising and the sacrifice of the commander-in-chief
The great man once lamented that he did not change Lu Deming for his three divisions, which showed Lu Deming's own strength, but he died heroically in the autumn harvest uprising. In 1927, although the Northern Expedition was victorious, a large number of reactionaries within the Kuomintang betrayed the revolution, resulting in the failure of the first national revolution.
In order to save the revolution, our Party decided to hold autumn harvest riots in the four provinces of Hunan, Hubei, Jiangxi, and Guangdong, to carry out the agrarian revolution and thoroughly solve the peasants' land problem.
Lu Deming was born in 1905 in Yibin, Sichuan Province, to a wealthy family. Since childhood, he has read poetry and books, has a good educational foundation, and when he was 19 years old, he missed the first batch of examinations of the Whampoa Military Academy because of the long distance, but he met Sun Yat-sen, who gave him a separate question and was approved to join the second infantry team of the Whampoa Military Academy.
Subsequently, Lu Deming provided a strong guarantee for the main force in the battle against Chen Jiongming, and made the first battle achievement. He also made great contributions in the Northern Expedition, the Agrarian Revolution, and the Nanchang Uprising.
After receiving the task of commanding the Autumn Harvest Uprising, he led his troops all the way through the thorns, but when passing through Jinping to attack Changshou Street, he was attacked by the enemy on his stomach and back, and the situation was critical.
Later, in order to cover the advance of the troops, he took the initiative to ask Miao to lead a company to seize the high ground to block the enemy, but in the process, he was unfortunately hit in the chest by a bullet and died heroically. When his sacrifice came, the whole army was heartbroken, and the great people also lamented it, and only then did they have the exclamation mentioned above.
However, the Autumn Harvest Uprising is not only such a tragic deed, but also many generals survived the battle, and even made great contributions in the founding of New China later, and some of the company-level petty officers of the Autumn Harvest Uprising followed the Chinese revolution step by step, and after the founding of the Country, they were all founding marshal-level figures, he was Luo Ronghuan.
The founding father who came out of the Autumn Harvest Uprising
If Lu Deming finally realized the meaning of his life as the commander-in-chief in the Autumn Harvest Uprising, then Luo Ronghuan realized the meaning of his life in the Autumn Harvest Uprising.
Luo Ronghuan was born in Hunan in 1902, and his family also had the conditions to study, and he began to study at Changsha Middle School and Qingdao University in his 17 schools, where he came into contact with progressive ideas and participated in patriotic activities against warlords and imperialism.
After graduation, he also returned to his hometown to organize peasant associations and carry out the revolutionary struggle to beat up local tycoons and divide up the land. At the age of 25, he went to Wuchang Sun Yat-sen University for further study, during which time he became a party member, and was immediately sent to the city of Nantong to engage in the peasant movement and serve as a party representative. The armed forces he led were incorporated into the Guard Regiment of the General Headquarters of the 2nd Front of the Wuchang National Revolutionary Army during the Autumn Harvest Uprising, and he served as the party representative of the Special Agent Company.
Although the Autumn Harvest Rebellion eventually failed, Luo Ronghuan survived and saved his living forces to follow the great man to Jinggangshan, opening another new chapter.
In the subsequent War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the War of Liberation and the construction after the founding of New China, Luo Ronghuan made great contributions. In 1955, according to his merits, he was awarded the title of marshal and became one of the ten founding marshals of our country.
He also showed the style of a loyal revolutionary fighter, and from 1942 he insisted on working with illness for a long time, and died in Beijing on December 16, 1963, ending his admirable life.
The deputy commander-in-chief was imprisoned for 14 years
Lu Deming and Luo Ronghuan were loyal revolutionary fighters of the party and the people, but at that time, in the face of an unclear situation, some of them also chose the wrong camp, such as Chen Jun, the deputy commander-in-chief of the Autumn Harvest Uprising.
Born in 1893 in Huanggang, Hubei Province, Han Jun was one of the first students of the Whampoa Military Academy and joined our party during his time at the school. Because he showed excellent military talent after graduation, he was entrusted with a heavy responsibility, so he was appointed deputy commander in chief in the Autumn Harvest Uprising. Although there is a "vice" hanging in front, his power is also very important, but he did not seize the opportunity, resulting in the tragedy of the back.
As we all know, the Autumn Harvest Uprising eventually failed, and many people were captured at that time, and Han Jun was one of them; in fact, as long as he "stuck to it", he would eventually return to our party, but Han Jun, under the persuasion of the other side, chose to break away from the CCP organization and join the National Government.
In the later Period of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Han Jun did exert his outstanding military talents, but after the outbreak of the civil war, he often hesitated on the battlefield because he could not resist the discovery of his inner conscience, resulting in frequent defeats, until he later led his army to surrender at the Battle of Laiwu in 1947.
He was later placed in a war criminals' camp until 1961, when he was pardoned, and 14 years had passed since his release.
brief summary:
The "chaotic world" of the autumn harvest uprising can indeed create many heroes early, but after we learn about the deeds of the warriors and generals in the autumn harvest uprising, we cannot help but sigh that even if the times create heroes, heroes must also conform to the times, and only by making the right choice at the fork in the road of life can we have the opportunity to become real heroes.
Lu Deming and Luo Ronghuan did not need to say much, just discussing someone like Han Jun, they could not help but feel sorry for him. At the beginning of the glory and to the later stage of the betrayal of the revolution, and then to the back of the prison, most of his life is actually caused by his own improper choices, in fact, this also reflects a person in the face of things, to adhere to their own correct concepts, do not doubt their previous decisions because of a few words from others, make the wrong choice, such consequences will not be able to bear by himself.
Everyone has the right to choose their own life, but everyone also has to pay for their own improper choices. Therefore, I hope that when you face the choice, think more and win more opinions from others, in order to finally achieve a perfect life.
