Foreword: "We should never be Li Zicheng, we all hope to get good results in the exam!" This is what Chairman Mao said when he entered beijing in March 1949, and it has become a well-known saying in China after repeated propaganda on television and film.
"Improper Li Zicheng" has also become a famous slogan of the Communist Party, warning everyone not to forget their roots, to guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and to serve the people wholeheartedly.
"We must never let Li Zicheng", "We can't be driven out of Beijing by others as Li Zicheng!" ”
In fact, two months before Chairman Mao, there was a person who also said something similar, and this person was Ma Baosan, the first mayor of Qingdao after liberation.
First, Ma Baosan and his deeds are vivid.
Ma Baosan was born in 1888, 5 years older than Chairman Mao. Because he entered a private school when he was a child, he had a high level of education.
Ma Baosan, the first mayor of Qingdao after liberation
In 1924, at the age of 37, Ma Baosan joined the Communist Party of China and founded the first party branch in Shouguang County, and he was one of the early members of our party. After the defeat of the Great Revolution, he briefly avoided entering Korea to participate in the Korean Revolution in Huichuan, and soon returned to Shandong to continue the revolution. His main deeds before liberation were:
1. Heroic heroes and righteousness, specially good at fighting grievances, and beating up the county magistrate of the Qing Dynasty for the people to protect the field.
Once, the governor of Shouguang's Daqing County took a fancy to the more than 1,000 mu of fertile land developed by the masses on the lake beach in Niutou Town, Ma Baoshan's hometown, and led people to forcibly classify the fields as "learning fields" in an attempt to occupy them.
When Ma Baosan heard this, he was furious and rushed over with a large knife.
Ma Baosan in his youth
He killed a bloody road, killed directly in front of the county chief, slapped the knife on the table, punched the county chief to the ground, stared at the county chief, and said, "Do you want land or do you want to die?" Frightened, the county magistrate fled.
Although after consultation, more than 400 acres of land were finally disposed of, no one from Shouguang's later county magistrates dared to come to Niutou Town to make trouble.
2. Destroying a family and scattering money and making a revolution, a person is not afraid of losing his life, then what else is he afraid of?
After joining the Communist Party, he faced the problem of needing a large amount of funds for activities. In order to raise funds for the organization, Ma Baosan also sold one of his family's houses.
At that time, the people in the family advised him not to be impulsive, and Ma Baosan said: "After participating in the revolution, I am not even afraid of losing my life, am I still afraid of losing these few dollars?" ”
3. Mobilized the sons of their hometown to become the 8th detachment of the Shandong Military Region of the Eighth Route Army.
The War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression broke out, and Ma Baosan decided to pull up a team to resist Japan. In Shouguang County, with Niutou Town as the center, he went from house to house to mobilize young and middle-aged people to join the army, and soon pulled up a team of more than 70 people.
Ma Baosan's home became the headquarters of the troops, and his family property became the public property of the troops, and everyone in the family was busy with the troops without complaint.
Ma Baosan often led the guerrillas around, beating the Japanese puppet army all day long, and at that time there was a saying in the Japanese puppet army in Shouguang: "If I lie, let me go out and bump into Ma Baosan!" ”
Under Ma Baosan's leadership, many of the teams quickly grew to more than 700 people, and then to more than 1500 people.
Ma Bao Sanshouguang revolted to pull up the ranks
In the Battle of Wujing in Linqu in 1939, Ma Baosan's troops killed more than 160 Japanese puppet troops, and was praised by Luo Ronghuan as "the most exemplary battle in the two years of the Shandong War of Resistance". Later, Ma Baosan's troops were incorporated into the official units of the Shandong Military Region and became the main force.
Second, Ma Baosan's version of "We should never let Li Zicheng!" ”
After the liberation of Qingdao, because of its special status (a municipality directly under the Kuomintang), it was finally decided to make Ma Baosan, who was 61 years old, the first mayor of Qingdao after careful study.
Qingdao at the time of liberation
After receiving the appointment, Ma Baosan wrote 4 sentences to the people around him: "When you go to the city, don't forget your roots, care for the people; everything is for the people, not Li Chuangwang!" ”
This is the origin of Ma Baosan's "improper Li Zicheng" version.
To say that Ma Baosan is different from Chairman Mao's "but Li Zicheng", it is that Ma Baosan said that "Li Chuangwang was not the right king."
After becoming the mayor of Qingdao, many of Ma Baosan's relatives came to him and wanted to be an official, and Ma Baosan angrily said: "I came to Qingdao to serve the people, not to be an official and a master, and you all gave me back to cultivate the land well!" ”

Then Ma Baosan made another rule: "First, I am not here to be a high official; second, if anyone dares to use my name as Ma Baosan to gain benefits, I will not recognize such relatives!" ”
Ma Baosan Gaosheng was going to leave Qingdao for Jinan, and before leaving, he said to his secretary: "What we brought with us when we came to Qingdao, we will take what we take with us when we leave, and I don't want anything else." ”
In 1964, ma Baosan died of illness in Jinan at the age of 77.
In his several kilometers long funeral procession, there were many ordinary people from Shouguang, Qingdao, and Jinan, and many of them cried loudly and their cries were tremendous.
The former residence of Ma Baosan is also the former site of the Niutoushan Uprising Headquarters
Conclusion: Ma Baosan is a good cadre, but also a cadre with a very high level of cultural theory, he was able to put forward the "improper Li Chuang Wang" long before Chairman Mao, and practiced all his life, which is very precious, which is also a precious spiritual cultural heritage.
