There are many founding generals with legendary experience, and the founding major general Tong Lusheng that we want to introduce today, although he does not have a war story of nine deaths, he has been awarded the rank of major general three times, which can be said to be unique among all founding generals.
As early as the period of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Tong Lusheng had become a major general, and it should be known that the major generals during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression were of a very high rank, such as the well-known Nie Shuai, Xu Shuai, General Chen Geng, General Xu Haidong, and General Huang Kecheng, who are all major generals during the War of Resistance. It is reasonable to say that Tong Lusheng could at least become a founding general after the founding of the country, but he did not rise at all levels. It is worth mentioning that Tong Lusheng's father was also a major general, under the leadership of his father, Tong Lusheng joined the National Revolutionary Army very early, in 1941, the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army set up the High Counselor Office, and Zhu Laozong personally ordered Tong Lusheng to work in the High Staff Room and appointed him as a major general.
During the negotiations in Chongqing, the central leaders needed a senior counselor by their side, and Mr. Peng recommended Tong Lusheng, who was a senior staff officer of the major general of the 18th Group Army at that time, which was the second time he had the rank of major general, plus the rank of major general in 1955, Tong Lusheng was awarded major general three times. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Tong Lusheng was sent to the Jiusan Farm in the Northern Wilderness to undergo labor reform, and in addition to labor, he gradually developed a strong interest in medicine, and saved his already small food expenses, all of which were used to buy teaching materials.
After years of hard work, Tong Lusheng finally made a small name in the medical field, but he never received a penny from a patient when he saw a doctor, he said: We fight the world to make the people live a happy and healthy life, if I come back to earn the money of the people, then do I still have the face to see the dead martyrs? Tong Lusheng did this righteous deed for decades, until he was 100 years old and died in Beijing due to ineffective medical treatment.
