In modern times, hot weapons dominate the battlefield, strong ships and cannons are the core elements that determine combat effectiveness, and the era of cold weapons with traditional large knives and spears has passed, but this does not affect the development of Chinese martial arts culture. Xi Wu can strengthen his body and protect his body, especially in the turbulent era is a great opportunity for the development of martial arts, there are many martial arts masters in our army, and there are several of the ten marshals who have real kung fu, and the first to recommend is Marshal Ye Jianying. Ye Shuai was a master of kung fu and swords, and had defeated instructors from Japan during his studies.
When Ye Shuai was a teenager, he studied at the Yunnan Wushu Academy, and as a place to train officers, the Wushu Hall naturally also opened martial arts classes, and one of the fencing items was to ask japanese instructors to teach it. Japan, where fencing culture prevails, is also unique in this regard, and no one in the whole school, including the teachers, can beat him in fencing. The Japanese instructors, on the other hand, had a stubborn personality and an arrogant attitude, openly claiming to be invincible in the whole school. This naturally stimulated Ye Shuai's patriotic enthusiasm, and in order to defeat this Japanese instructor, Ye Shuai began to practice fencing day and night, and also pulled his classmate Jin Zhishun to accompany him.
In this way, after more than half a year of hard practice, Ye Shuai's fencing level improved by leaps and bounds, enough to compete with the Japanese instructors. Ye Shuai immediately proposed a duel to the Japanese instructor, and the arrogant Japanese instructor was hindered by the spirit of Bushido and did not allow him to escape, so he accepted Ye Shuai's challenge. However, from the bottom of his heart, he still had some disdain for Ye Shuai, a student of the artillery department, and because of his arrogance, he was finally caught and defeated after dozens of moves with Ye Shuai. Faced with this fact, although the arrogant Japanese officers could not accept it, they could only unsheath their sabers according to the rules and offer them to Ye Shuai as a souvenir. Since then, Ye Shuai's reputation in the academy has soared, and the Chinese students have also breathed a fierce breath.
Ye Shuai loved the country and his family all his life, and after graduating from the Yunnan Wushu School, he followed Mr. Zhongshan to run for the democratic revolution. In 1922, the Yunnan warlord Chen Jiongming rebelled and sent troops to surround Mr. Zhongshan's residence, when Ye Shuai was the commander of the Marine Battalion, and immediately led the troops to help Mr. Zhongshan out of danger. At that time, Ye Shuai took the lead with his strong hands and opened a path in the heavy encirclement of the enemy.
Not only was he skilled, Ye Shuai was also talented in the military. In the two battles against Chen Jiongming, several beautiful victories were fought. In 1927, Ye Shuai joined the National Revolutionary Army, and in December Ye Shuai revolted in Guangdong, echoing the uprising movement across the country. During the Anti-Japanese War, Ye Shuai's main responsibilities were to be responsible for the preparation of military academies, the establishment of anti-Japanese base areas behind enemy lines, and the assistance of the chairman and President Zhu in formulating battle plans.
In 1948, the situation in the country became clear, and Ye Shuai was transferred to take charge of the preparation of the North China Military and Political University. After the founding of New China, Ye Shuai was also responsible for the layout of bandit suppression in South China and the overall construction of South China. After that, Ye Shuai's work has always been closely related to national construction, including being responsible for the military training work of the whole army, the establishment of the Academy of Military Sciences, and so on, which has made great contributions to the construction of new China.
In 1986, the veteran revolutionary who had worked for China all his life completed his life at the age of 89. Although Ye Shuai is gone, we will never forget his contribution to China, and his spirit will be passed on from generation to generation Chinese forever.
