What is the meaning of life? Is it the persistent pursuit of truth? Or is it mediocre? Perhaps no one can give a standard correct answer, but at least I think that the pursuit of truth, even if the obstacle is long, but the sense of achievement that can be obtained is still unmatched elsewhere.
Just like Li Jishen, who was hunted down and killed by Chiang Kai-shek many times, his son was also killed by the guards, and became vice chairman after the founding of the People's Republic of China, his life experience may make us understand what is the true joy of pursuing the truth!
See through Chiang Kai-shek's moral appearance
Li Jishen was born in 1885 in a poor family in Guangxi, like all ordinary people at that time, Li Jishen grew up in a poor, hungry, and bullied social environment when he was a teenager, and also created Li Jishen's self-reliant and self-reliant character and the idea of serving the motherland from an early age.
Therefore, in the choice of school, he is also inclined to military schools, which also lays a theoretical foundation for his future military career.
During the outbreak of the Xinhai Revolution, Li Jishen and six other classmates joined forces to sabotage the Caohe Iron Bridge near Baoding, successfully preventing the Qing army from going south to suppress the revolutionary movement, and winning valuable preparation time for the revolutionaries.
Li Jishen also reflected his valuable leadership ability at this time, after which he actively participated in the Northern Expedition, stayed on as a teacher at the Army University, carefully trained a large number of high-level military talents, and had the reputation of "all the army in the country are studying behind, and the two famous Cantonese generals are protégés".
Later, Chiang Kai-shek founded the Whampoa Military Academy, and Li Jishen, as a senior teacher, also used his knowledge and contacts to contribute to the preparation of the military academy, which was appreciated by Sun Yat-sen.
However, such a person with lofty ideals who sincerely sought rejuvenation for the country was ostracized by the Kuomintang reactionaries.
In 1927, Chiang Kai-shek openly rebelled and launched the April 12 coup, in fact, he had already launched a Qing Party congress within the Kuomintang, in which Li Jishen was invited to participate.
It was also during this period that Li Jishen saw the wolf ambitions under Chiang Kai-shek's moral appearance, and in order to "save" Chiang Kai-shek's conscience, Li Jishen more than once openly stood up against and persuaded Chiang Kai-shek, but the result was fruitless, and even in 1929 he was seized by Chiang Kai-shek of the power of the party, government, and army in Guangdong and detained in Tangshan, Nanjing.
He was hunted down and killed by Chiang Kai-shek many times
Chiang Kai-shek's unkindness and injustice did not stop Li Jishen's pursuit of truth, and at this time he shifted his attention to the Chinese Communist Party, because in his view this is a political party that can truly lead China to the light.
In order to remove this nail in the eye, Chiang Kai-shek used the excuse of Li Jishen's blatant coup d'état to launch a vicious hunt and killing of him. (After the 9.18 Incident, Li Jishen, Chen Mingshu, Jiang Guangnai, Cai Tingkai, and others launched a coup in Fujian and ultimately failed) In order to avoid Chiang Kai-shek's pursuit, Li Jishen had to flee the motherland and come overseas.
However, Li Jishen, who was far overseas, still could not let go of China, and he repeatedly contacted Song Qingling, He Xiangning and others, running around calling for a joint war of resistance, and made great contributions to the final determination of the united front.
After the end of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Li Jishen returned to the motherland, and at this time he had another difficult task, that is, to persuade Chiang Kai-shek not to start a civil war.
History has proved that this persuasion naturally failed, but what people did not expect was that Li Jishen was once again hunted down and killed by Chiang Kai-shek because of this persuasion.
Not long after the end of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Li Jishen, Feng Yuxiang and others discussed the peaceful establishment of the motherland together and was known to Chiang Kai-shek, who sent three telegrams to "invite" Li Jishen to Lushan to discuss important matters. Although he knew that this was a feast at the Hongmen Gate, Li Jishen still went happily, and sure enough, when he did arrive at Lushan, Li Jishen was controlled by Chiang Kai-shek.
Li Jishen, who escaped in 1947, published in Hong Kong "Suggestions for the Current Situation," which bitterly criticized Chiang Kai-shek's authoritarianism and also made the world realize the true face of Chiang Kai-shek.
The son was killed by the guards
Li Jishen's whole life has been striving for the cause of the reunification of the motherland, and although he is a Kuomintang, his pursuit and heart are also the same as the purpose of our party.
At the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China in 1949, Li Jishen witnessed the founding of the People's Republic of China with the people of the whole country, and he was also elected by the people as vice chairman to build the motherland together.
Li Jishen's patriotism and ideas of serving the people also influenced his family, such as his son Li Peiyao.
As a leading figure in the revolutionary era, he was a close partner of our Party, and like his father, Li Jishen, he worked hard for the reunification of the motherland all his life, but it is a pity that god is jealous of the talent, and this democrat died of death.
It was February 2, 1996, Li Peiyao, who was home at night, because he bumped into the guard Zhang Jinlong to steal his money, Li Peiyao hated the iron and steel and educated the other party a few words, did not expect that this Zhang Jinlong was actually embarrassed and angry and li Peiyao tore up.
How Li Peiyao, who has been working in the civilian industry for many years, is a rival of Zhang Jinlong, a guard from Zhang Jinlong,
Soon Li Peiyao was cut to the ground by Zhang Jinlong with a kitchen knife, and there was no more sound.
Zhang Jinlong fled the scene immediately after committing the crime, but Skynet was restored without leakage, and soon he was arrested by the public security organs, because the circumstances of the crime were serious, Zhang Jinlong was also sentenced to death, paying the due price for his actions. It is a pity that li Peiyao, such an excellent democratic revolutionary, was forced to end his life in this way.
However, in the author's opinion, even if the time goes back, Li Jishen and Li Peiyao will still choose their current path, not for the sake of status, but for the conscience that a Chinese should have, and it is a point that a person who pursues the truth should do.
brief summary:
Li Jishen has contributed infinite strength to the cause of truth in his limited life, and this high-consciousness thought of his has also affected his descendants, looking at the state of running and willingness all his life, who can deny that he is not happy in the pursuit of truth?
From being determined to serve the country, to being squeezed out by the reactionaries, from gathering forces of various parts to save the country from danger, to being hunted down and killed by Chiang Kai-shek, whose interests are in the heart. Li Jishen has been pursuing the truth all his life, and although he has encountered many difficulties, he has not given up and finally succeeded. Perhaps it is his perseverance that can achieve such amazing results!
