What is history: it is the echo of the past to the future, the reflection of the future on the past. - Hugo
The Red Seventh Army of Chinese Workers and Peasants was established in July 1933 and administered three divisions: the 20th, 21st and 34th divisions. At the beginning of the establishment of the Red Seventh Army, the commander of the regiment was Xiao Jinguang, and later It was changed to Xun Huaizhou as the commander of the regiment (it has not changed since then), and Xiao Jinguang, who had previously served as the commander of the regiment, was changed to the political commissar of the Red Seventh Army.
Perhaps everyone knows Xiao Jinguang, the political commissar of the Red Seventh Army, and during the Red Army period, he successively served as the political commissar of the Red 11th Army and the commander of the Fujian-Gansu Military Region, and then was dismissed due to the loss of Li Chuan. However, his superiors gave him the opportunity to make meritorious contributions to the crime, and arranged for him to serve as a political commissar in the newly formed Red Seventh Army.
Xiao Jinguang
However, on July 5, 1934, he instructed his superiors to reorganize the Red 7Th Army into an anti-Japanese advance team in Ruijin and go north to resist Japan, but also to contain and disperse the nationalist army and reduce the enemy's pressure on the revolutionary base areas. However, when the Red Seventh Army went north to resist the Japanese, the political commissar of the army was changed to Le Shaohua. Xiao Jinguang remained in Ruijinsu District.
After the failure of the fifth anti-encirclement and suppression campaign, he embarked on the Long March with the main Red Army. From Ruijin, Jiangxi, the journey reached Yan'an in northern Shaanxi for 100,000 miles, and the Long March ended smoothly. In the following period of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, he served as the commander of the Eighth Route Army's Left Behind Corps, carrying out the tasks of defending the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region, eliminating bandits in the territory, and stabilizing social order.
However, during the Liberation War, Xiao Jinguang led his troops into the northeast and served as the deputy commander of the Northeast Democratic United Army. Engaged in the campaign to liberate the Northeast, he served as deputy commander in the Northeast. It was not until the Northeast Army was reorganized into the Fourth Field Army that Xiao Jinguang was appointed commander of the 12th Corps. He contributed greatly to the victory of the War of Liberation, so after liberation he was awarded the rank of Grand General.
The chief of staff of the Red Seventh Army is also a cattle man in the history of our party, he is Commander Su Yu, and probably everyone has compared Commander Su. Outstanding military man and commander of our army. During the period of land reform, he served as chief of staff of the Red Seventh Army, and later went north with the troops to resist the Japanese. After that, he stayed in the south and therefore did not participate in the Long March.
Commander of millet
Although, during the Period of the Red Land Reform and the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the position of Commander of the Millet Was Not Very High. However, during the period of the Liberation War, he made great contributions to the victory of the Liberation War by leaps and bounds to become the deputy commander of the East China Field Army, and successively commanded and launched the Battle of Laiwu, the Battle of Menglianggu, the Battle of Eastern Henan, and the Battle of Huaihai, making great contributions to the victory of the War of Liberation. Therefore, after liberation he was awarded the rank of great general, ranking first.
The political commissar and chief of staff of the Red Seventh Army were all awarded the rank of general in 1955, so why did Xun Huaizhou, as the commander of the army, not have his name on the list of generals? He was not even present in the entire founding generals. Because, when the Red Seventh Army was moving north, it was ambushed by the enemy at Tangkou Town, Taiping County (now Tangkou Town, Huangshan District, Huangshan City), and suffered heavy losses, and the young regimental commander also died heroically in this war.
Xun Huaizhou
Xun Huaizhou was a fierce general during the Red Army period, he was brave and good at fighting, threatening the enemy's position, and made outstanding achievements in battle, and was a well-known general among the generals of the Red Army. Moreover, the age of the regimental commander is younger than Lin Zong, and it is known that Lin Zong served as the regimental commander at the age of 24, and Xun Huaizhou became the commander of the Red Seventh Army at the age of 22. Assuming that he did not sacrifice, he may have done more later and achieved even more. Due to the early sacrifice, as the commander of the regiment, he did not hold any position after the founding of the country. However, on September 14, 2009, he was named one of the 100 heroic models who made outstanding contributions to the founding of New China.
