Gan Yuanjing, a native of Luoshan County, Henan Province, as early as 1930, he was the chairman of the Soviet government of the Eyu-Anhui Border Region, when the Eyu-Anhui Border Region established the First Army of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, the commander was Xu Jishen, and the deputy commander was Xu Shuai, so it can be said that his starting point was higher than Xu Shuai.
On November 7, 1931, after the establishment of the Red Fourth Front, Xu Shuai served as the commander-in-chief, but at this time, Gan Yuanjing only served as the political commissar of the 10th Division of the Red 4th Army. At that time, Gan Yuanjing was bent on establishing meritorious service, and as a result, he was captured during the Western Expedition with his troops, and one pass was two years. After being released in 1938, at the invitation of local revolutionary comrades, he served as the chief of staff of the Henan Military Command, leading everyone to fight devils.
After the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Gan Yuanjing contacted the organization again and was appointed as the director of the Arsenal of the Central Plains Military Region. However, the good times did not last long, and in June 1946, the Central Military Commission decided to withdraw Nakano from Dabie Mountain. For the sake of the overall situation, Nakano evacuated a number of cadres, including Gan Yuanjing. After Gan Yuanjing evacuated the workers, he hid in the deep mountains and old forests, and a few days later, because he was too hungry, he decided to venture home and get some food to enter the mountains again.
In fact, Gan Yuanjing had long been targeted, as soon as he returned home, the township mayor Huang Wenbo rushed into the Gan family with a security team and captured Gan Yuanjing, when Huang Wenbo threatened the life of Gan's family and forced him to write a letter of self-surrender, and then Gan Yuanjing also became the chief of the national army. After the founding of New China, Gan Yuanjing was arrested for the self-surrender book he had written. At that time, someone found Luo Houfu, who was then the commander of the Xiaogan Military Region in Hubei Province, hoping to release Gan Yuanjing.
Luo Houfu also knew the history of Gan Yuanjing, saying that Gan Yuanjing's contribution to the revolution was very great, and he was not wrong to be the chief of the security guard, even if it was not right, he should be released on his merits. Eventually, with the intervention of Luo Houfu, Gan Yuanjing was released. But at this time, Gan Yuanjing, due to years of physical and mental torture, no longer has hope for the prospects of life. At the beginning of 1952, Gan Yuanjing ended his unfortunate life on the beam of the house in his home.
