For the victory of the revolution and the liberation of China, countless heroic martyrs rushed to the forefront of the War of Resistance all their lives, never gave up no matter how great the tribulations they encountered, even if they were bloody, injured, and sacrificed, they had to use their own flesh and blood to build a new China.
Zhu Kejing was one of them, one of the early Communists who made great sacrifices for the War of Resistance and the liberation of China. But in 1937, when he had already made many contributions, when he reappeared in front of everyone's eyes, he became a farmer who defected to the New Fourth Army.
Zhu Kejing, a student of Peking University
Zhu Kejing was born in a peasant family in Hunan Province, the family is not rich, but attaches great importance to the education of future generations, Zhu Kejing studied hard under the expectations of his family, and finally was admitted to Peking University in 1919.
During his days at Peking University, Zhu Kejing learned many advanced ideas, but he also saw the suffering of the people's lives. He thought of his parents, who were still suffering at home, and was determined to let thousands of poor people like their parents live a good life and liberate China.
At this time, he came into contact with Marxist thought and deeply realized the importance of revolution and the advanced significance of Marxism.
In 1922, Zhu Kejing joined the Communist Party and actively participated in the revolution.
In 1923, Zhu Kejing was sent to the Soviet Union to study. In the Soviet Union, Zhu Kejing studied all kinds of advanced ideas and concepts and constantly improved himself; he always adhered to the idea of serving the people and fighting for the liberation of China, and he easily refused to relax.
For China at that time, Zhu Kejing was a rare and valuable talent, in 1925, although the study was not over, but at that time the country needed him, Zhu Kejing immediately took a ship back to China.
At that time, the kuomintang and the communist party cooperated to form the National Revolutionary Army, and the commander of the Third Army was Zhu Peide, and the personnel of this team were chaotic.
In order to transform the Third Army and make it a staunch revolutionary force, Zhu Kejing was appointed as the party representative of the Third Army, responsible for political and ideological work.
In order to solve the chaotic situation of the Third Army, Zhu Kejing immediately began to transform the mental outlook of the soldiers, set up a political department, set up an officer school, and propagated revolutionary ideas.
Under Zhu Kejing's education, the patriotic feelings of the soldiers were unprecedentedly strong, and they were deeply aware of the importance of the revolution and the crisis in China.
This contingent gradually became a solid force for the revolution.
In 1926, the revolutionary situation was getting better and better, but Chiang Kai-shek began to set off a wave of anti-communism for his own selfish desires.
At that time, there were also reactionary forces in the Third Army, and under the instigation of the reactionary forces and the indulgence of Zhu Peide, commander of the Third Army, bad emotions appeared in the Third Army.
At that time, Zhu Kejing, who was far away from the front, was very angry, and he strongly demanded that Zhu Peide solve the reactionary forces, but at first Zhu Peide ignored them, but under Zhu Kejing's constant pressure, he had no choice but to expel the reactionary forces and stop the turmoil in the Third Army.
In order to counter Chiang Kai-shek's behavior, Zhu Kejing asked the military commander Zhu Peide to come forward and call on the warlords to boycott Chiang Kai-shek, and in the midst of domestic condemnation, Chiang Kai-shek relented.
Dodge the hunt to change identities
In 1927, Chiang Kai-shek's ambitions swelled again, this time with more brutality and worsecy.
On March 29, Zhu Kejing and Guo Moruo persuaded Zhu Peide to participate in anti-Chiang Kai-shek operations, and with Zhu Kejing's efforts, Zhu Peide agreed to use Jiangxi as a position against Chiang Kai-shek.
After the April 12 coup, Zhu Peide, however, was attracted by Chiang Kai-shek's interests and broke his oath for the sake of the high-ranking official Houlu, expelling the Communists in the Third Army.
But Zhu Peide understood that Zhu Kejing was a talent, and if this talent could be used for his own use, it would be a powerful force.
Therefore, before Zhu Kejing left Jiangxi, Zhu Peide deliberately persuaded Zhu Kejing to surrender under the pretext of inviting him to dinner, and Zhu Kejing was furious and resolutely refused, and the two broke up from then on.
In order to escape the pursuit,
Zhu Kejing incarnated as a seller and wandered to the Wuhan area.
On August 1, Zhu Kejing, who had finally joined the large army, led the expelled soldiers of the Third Army to participate in the Nanchang Uprising, but in October, they were surrounded and suppressed by the Kuomintang, resulting in Zhu Kejing and his team being separated, and only one person could begin to exile again.
This time, he and the troops had been separated for a full decade.
Because Zhu Kejing was very famous in the national army, the situation he faced in the pursuit and round-up was extremely grim, and his face could not be hidden. In desperation,
Zhu Kejing can only disguise himself as a peasant,
Wait for the right moment to return to the revolutionary journey.
In 1937, the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression broke out in full swing and the New Fourth Army was formed, and Zhu Kejing knew that he was waiting for an opportunity.
Revolutionary martyrs are immortal
Zhu Kejing rushed to Nanchang to participate in the War of Resistance. In Nanchang, at that time, there were still reactionary forces that recognized him and hoped to persuade him to surrender, but I did not expect that Zhu Kejing was bent on defecting to the New Fourth Army and completely ignored him.
In 1937,
The New Fourth Army ushered in a special peasant surrender.
Ye Ting, the military commander at that time, immediately recognized him when he saw Zhu Kejing, and it was naturally a very happy thing for comrades to return to the team, but new problems also appeared, and Ye Ting was very embarrassed.
At this time, although Zhu Kejing was a new member, he had made great contributions and was also one of the important leading figures in the party.
"Your historical status is too high to be arranged."
Ye Ting could only tell the truth to Zhu Kejing.
No matter what kind of work he does, as long as he participates in the revolution and as long as he can serve the people, then he is willing.
In the subsequent War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Zhu Kejing threw himself wholeheartedly into the battlefield and ideological work, persuading many people to participate in the revolution and join the ranks of the New Fourth Army.
In 1946, Zhu Kejing was betrayed by traitors and arrested by the Nationalist army.
In the days of detention, whether it was severe torture or coercion and inducement, Zhu Kejing did not yield, he strengthened his belief, did not compromise, did not bow his head.
In October of the same year, the enemy saw that Zhu Kejing was resolute and could not persuade him to surrender, so he strangled Zhu Kejing to death on the outskirts of Nanjing, at the age of 52.
brief summary:
Zhu Kejing dedicated his life to the revolution, even if he was in exile, he never gave up his firm belief in the revolution, his spirit is worthy of our study and our remembrance, his name will always be remembered by history and the people, there are many revolutionary martyrs as firm as Zhu Kejing, and it is their dedication that has given up today's China, martyrs for eternity!
