From the beginning of the last century to 1953, the Chinese people struggled in the chaos of war for half a century, and although those wounds have passed, as a Chinese of the new generation, they can never forget the history written in blood and tears, take history as an admonition, protect the motherland, and contribute to the country.
The separation of wives and children due to the war and the unknown whereabouts of relatives have made many elderly people regret their deaths. Over time, living conditions have gotten better and better, and many people have started a new life. However, many of the revolutionary heroes who survived were fortunate.
Brotherhood is one of the most precious feelings in the world. The three brothers defended the motherland and joined the Red Army, but they had not been heard from for many years, and when they met again, they all became the founding major generals, and such an ending was really too satisfactory.
He joined the army successively
The three brothers are Dekeming, Dekeling and Cheng Qiwen, in fact, they are not brothers, Dekeling and Dekeming are cousins, and Deklin and Cheng Qiwen are cousins, and the three have been very good since childhood.
Because the Dai family had more people participating in the revolution, after the defeat of the Great Revolution, most of the women, children, and children in the family were killed by the Nationalist government, and Dai Keming and his mother escaped by chance. Later, Decklin joined the Red Army. Dai Keming and his mother wandered away for a long time, and when they returned to their hometown in 1929, they just happened to meet Deklin returning to his hometown, so he followed his brother out to participate in the revolution.
Cheng Qiwen joined the army through his cousin Cheng Shaoshan, who was wrongly killed for rebellion and sacrificed his precious life, and posthumously recognized Cheng Shaoshan as a revolutionary martyr when the Seventh National Congress of the Communist Party of China was convened in 1945.
Although Dai Keming followed his cousin out to participate in the revolution, since joining the work, the two have not seen each other for nearly 10 years, because they are not in the same unit, communications are not developed at that time, war may break out at any time, and it is impossible to delay time in order to contact brotherly feelings.
In fact, Dai Keming's original name was Dai Daokui, And Dai Kelin's original name was Dai Daoju, and the grandfather of the two was the same person, and they were the closest cousins of blood. From playing together from childhood to adulthood, the feelings are naturally very deep, but they were born in the war and chaos years, the family was killed for a long time, and then the brotherhood is deep, and they can only knock down the enemy to meet again, but the guns have no eyes, and I don't know if they can meet again.
Meet in another country
Decklin joined the Boy Scouts at the age of 13 and had the courage and strategy. After joining the Red Army at the age of 16, he repeatedly made military merits and was promoted to deputy battalion commander. Seriously wounded in the Battle of the Hexi Corridor and separated from his troops, Dekelin had to beg all the way back to Yan'an.
During the War of Resistance Against Japan, Deklin led his subordinates to repel the Japanese army many times, and made great contributions to driving out Japanese imperialism. Bullets hitting the head and buttocks, puncturing the left leg and soles of the feet, having broken his left calf and wounding him seven times, could not stop the firm determination to fight for national liberation.
A double tiger general, Dai Keming's merits are not inferior to his cousin Dekelin, always clutching the gun in his hand, highlighting the siege, and attacking the enemy, after thousands of hardships. In June 1946, the Nationalist government gathered more than 300,000 troops in an attempt to annihilate the troops of our army's Central Plains Military Region in one fell swoop, and Dai Keming led the troops to block the attack while covering the withdrawal of the main army, and also did his best to protect the safety of his subordinates.
In the war years, it was not easy for every revolutionary martyr to take a gun to the battlefield, seize the opportunity in the rain of bullets and bullets, and win the battle. The family brothers could only be left behind, but for Deakin and Deckling, they were lucky.
As early as July 1939, at the first congress of the New Fourth Army of the Communist Party of China, the two brothers met. It was only because I had not seen them for many years that I changed my name and was unrecognizable at first. It was Dykemin who first noticed Decklin, and it just so happened that the two were in the same room.
The two who had said hello seemed to have doubts in their hearts and began to talk. After understanding, Dai Keming found that the other party was really his Daoju brother, and he cried with joy, and the two brothers hugged together, but they did not have the news of the good brother Cheng Qiwen, and their hearts were inevitably a little wandering.
After Cheng Qiwen joined the revolution, he served as the general secretary of the 217th Regiment of the 73rd Division, participated in the Long March, and also served in the New Fourth Army during the War of Resistance Against Japan, but he did not have the opportunity to meet with the two brothers of the Dai family.
All become major generals
Although in the summer of 1959, when the two Dai brothers and Cheng Qiwen met in the New Fourth Army, they finally met in Nanjing, recalling their respective encounters, and the three brothers had endless words.
Cheng Qiwen was promoted to the rank of major general in 1961, and Dai Keming and Deklin were promoted to the rank of major general in 1964, and for a while, the deeds of the three brothers were widely circulated.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the three of them worked diligently in their respective posts to provide advice for the development of new China, and the three brothers were particularly frugal, and the three veteran generals often wore patched clothes to chat freely.
Once, When Decklin was ill and needed surgery, when he saw the payment notice, the advance payment was as high as more than a thousand yuan, and he immediately asked to be discharged from the hospital without surgery. Although it can be reimbursed, but it wastes the country's money, he can't agree.
Persuaded by his brother and family, Decklin crossed out unnecessary test items and medicines from the payment slip before agreeing to the operation. The whole operation only took a few hundred yuan, and the doctors and nurses were all touched by this thrifty old general.
From their youth to their achievements, they have always been the simplest peasant children, dedicating all their youth and blood to the motherland and the people, and have never thought of taking advantage of the slightest; this is the state of life that the older generation of revolutionary predecessors have adhered to all their lives, and even if the living conditions are good now, the fine tradition of thrift and thrift cannot be discarded.
The three brothers left home to join the army when they were teenagers, and they have not been heard from for many years, and they have experienced countless battles, big and small, and being able to reunite is a very great gift for them. Seeing each other again became the founding major generals, and they couldn't stop them from chatting in old clothes.
Because he was poor since childhood and experienced hardships, he also understood the importance of saving money and thrift. Even the state's money is not spent casually, it is the old general's deep-rooted good idea, and my generation should learn from it.
"Fight father and son soldiers, fight tiger brothers", Dai Kelin, Dai Keming, Cheng Qiwen three, not brothers are better than brothers. Together, they experienced the hardships brought about by the war, bravely killed the enemy on their respective battlefields, and dedicated everything to the founding of New China. After the founding of New China, they fulfilled their duties and responsibilities in their respective posts and worked hard for the development of New China, which is a model for my generation.
The three brothers were almost the same age difference, joined the army as teenagers, had not been heard from for many years, worried about each other in the chaos of the war, and became the founding major general when they met again. There is nothing more gratifying than the time lost in youth and the ability to talk freely in old age.
