We read all the lead to present a different history.
Among the generals of the People's Liberation Army, Zhang Aiping is one of the generals who has experienced life and death the most. In his later years, he concluded that he had passed by the god of death nine times.
However, every time he is a death, a great difficulty does not die, can be called a "blessed general".
Zhang Aiping's life is indeed very legendary.
The first time he fought, he was seriously injured, the soldiers carried to the burial, the road encountered a tulang, found the stretcher dripping blood, saving Zhang Aiping's life.
Once, he and Deng Ping, the chief of staff of the legion, were observing the enemy situation in a grass. Suddenly, "snapping", Deng Ping was shot by the enemy and fell on Zhang Aiping's right arm -- he didn't even have time to say a word when he was sacrificed.
Zhang Aiping was unscathed.
Another time, the troops withdrew, and Zhang Aiping was cut off alone. The enemy soldiers rushed over and shouted, "Catch alive! Just as he was about to be captured, Admiral Wang Ping appeared with a guard platoon and rescued him.
Another time, Zhang Aiping commanded the troops to fight the Japanese army, "snapped", a bullet hit his body, he shook a little, almost fell to the ground, the bullet himself has fallen to the ground.
It turned out that it was the sheepskin jacket on his body that blocked the bullet and saved him.
And this sheepskin jacket was given to him by Jin Ming, the secretary of the provincial party committee five days ago, as if it was sent specifically to save him.
These are not the most thrilling and the luckiest.
What is even more legendary is that once Zhang Aiping's command post was blown up into the sky, the staff officers were dead, he was not dead, not even injured!
This was after the Red Army withdrew from Zunyi in January 1935.
At that time, after the Red Army left Zunyi City, it went north through Tongzi and Songkan to Tucheng, east of the Chishui River. A major division of Liu Xiang of the Sichuan Army crossed the Yangtze River south, seized the mountains around Tucheng, and blocked the Advance of the Red Army.
Thus began a counter-resistance war.
The Red 4th Division was responsible for the frontal main attack, the Red 5th Division detoured from the right flank, and the Red 6th Division was the reserve echelon. However, in the fierce battle, the enemy reinforcements to 4 divisions, the battle is very fierce. Zhang Zongxun, the commander of the Red 4th Division, was injured and admitted to the health center; the political commissar Huang Kecheng fell ill and lay on a stretcher. What to do? As the director of the division's political department, Zhang Aiping took up the command burden.
The command post of the Red 4th Division was located at the foot of a mountain north of the city. At dusk, the fighting became more intense. Zhang Aiping only gave an order, and then had to issue an order, almost dizzy. Suddenly, there was a loud "bang", and a bomb roared and landed in Zhang Aiping's command post and exploded, the fireworks filled the air, the mud flew into the air, and the command post all flew into the sky.
Several staff officers were unfortunately killed. What about Zhang Aiping?
He was carried by the huge air wave set off by the bomb and flew to a distance of several meters.
However, Zhang Aiping did not die. He stood up from the ground covered in dust, dusted the dirt on his body, and there was blood all around him, and when he touched it again, everyone else was sacrificed, but he didn't even wipe off a piece of skin all over his body.
Without a command post, Zhang Aiping continued to direct the battle in the large pit blown out by the bomb.
In the Battle of Tucheng, the Red Army fought fiercely for a day and a night, it was difficult to break the situation, and the enemy's 400,000 reinforcements were about to pour in, so the Red Army decisively withdrew from the battle. This time the intensity made Zhang Aiping unforgettable. And his legendary experience of not dying, even unscathed, surprised many people at that time. Many people say:
"Director Zhang is wearing a golden bell cover!" If the great difficulty does not die, there will be a blessing. ”
Zhang Aiping laughed loudly: "The Red Army uniform on our body, don't look at it is broken and thin, if you don't take it off, you must be blessed by God." The enemy will never be able to break our golden bell cover! ”
Zhang Aiping escaped from death, and the great difficulty did not die, and there was indeed a "post-blessing". Later, he became a general of the People's Liberation Army, deputy chief of general staff, minister of national defense, and a generation of famous generals in the People's Liberation Army.
