At the ceremony of awarding the title of meritorious service for the first time after the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1955, the 36-year-old Jiang Tengjiao was awarded the title of founding major general for his merits, and he was a political commissar of the military region and the military branch, and he was in a high position at a young age, and if there were no accidents, the future was absolutely unlimited, but the great man commented on him many times:
This person cannot be reused!
”
Jiang Tengjiao, born in 1919 in Hong'an, Hubei Province, where the revolutionary atmosphere is strong, joined the Red Army at the age of 11 and became a little red ghost, although he was very young, he was a small ghost and had outstanding ability, and as soon as he joined the army, he was appointed as the leader of the children's regiment and the secretary of the children's bureau.

In 1934, our army was forced to move north to the Long March due to the defeat of the fifth anti-encirclement and suppression battle, but Jiang Tengjiao was ordered to stay in the Soviet zone, persist in the struggle under the leadership of commander Gao Jingting, and cover the smooth transfer and retreat of the main force.
The three years of guerrilla warfare were extremely arduous, and it was not much easier to face the encirclement and suppression of the enemy's 100,000-strong army than the 25,000-mile long march, but Jiang Tengjiao insisted on unswerving revolutionary conviction and finally waited for the second cooperation between the enemy and us after the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan.
After the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression began, Jiang Tengjiao first served as a political instructor and then promoted to the post of political director, leading his troops to fight the enemy to the death in the revolutionary base areas of Hubei, Henan, and Anhui, and made outstanding military achievements.
During the Liberation War, Jiang Tengjiao was ordered to go to the northeast to participate in the battle, and successively served as the political director of the Northeast United Army, the sub-military region, and the field army, in charge of the political work of the whole army, and to solve problems for the frontline soldiers to stabilize the rear area.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he was promoted to political commissar of the military region and the large arms, and in 1955, at the ceremony of the first meritorious service after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Ji Gong was awarded the rank of founding major general, and he was only 36 years old at this time, and if there is no accident, he will have a great future.

But unfortunately, Jiang Tengjiao, who became famous at a young age, forgot his original revolutionary intention, thought of promoting officials and getting rich, flattered, and was often reported by his colleagues and lower-level organs as "very slippery", liked to "pull and pull", and was not kind to people.
When he was in the Nanjing Military Region, he framed General Xu Shiyou more than once, and returned Xu Shiyou to his hometown, and in the end things became more and more noisy, and it was the great man himself who came forward to invite Xu Shiyou back, and at the same time found out the truth of the matter, and as for Jiang Tengjiao, who was manipulating behind his back and speculating, the great man also commented many times:
Sure enough, in 1973, Jiang Tengjiao was dismissed for personal problems and was sentenced to 18 years in prison in 1981, but because Jiang Tengjiao was a revolutionary hero, when he was older, he was approved by the organization to be released on medical parole, and then he was placed to live in Taiyuan, and arranged two houses, Jiang Tengjiao and his wife and son each lived together.

And in order to live a worry-free life in his later years, the country will also regularly distribute enough living expenses every month, so Jiang Tengjiao's retirement pension life is carefree, until 2009, the 90-year-old Jiang Tengjiao died in Beijing due to lung disease.
