It is easy to fight in the country, but it is difficult to defend the country. - "Zizhi Tongjian Tang Ji"
Throughout the ages, countless heroes have laid down the "country" through their own efforts, but in the end, because they did not "keep", everything became a bubble.
At the time of the Long March of the Red Army, countless heroes emerged, and they did a lot of heroic deeds, and it was their efforts that gave us a happy and stable life now. However, among this group of soldiers who have made great achievements in battle, there are still those who have not been able to continue this meritorious service for a lifetime, and Li Zuopeng is a typical example.
When the Red Army crossed the meadows that year, Li Zuopeng made great achievements in the establishment of the army, and he also made numerous military achievements in the subsequent War of Resistance Against Japan.
Unfortunately, in the end, after the founding of New China, he did not keep his merit book, and a wrong judgment stained his entire political career and he fell to the altar.
The rebellious teenager eventually grew up and resolutely joined the army to be patriotic
In 1914, Li Zuopeng was born in an ordinary family in Ji'an County, Jiangxi Province, he was very cute and clever from an early age, and it was precisely because he was talented and intelligent that his parents gave him great expectations from an early age.
Father Li and Mother Li hope that he can get out of the mountains by learning knowledge. However, Li Zuopeng did not think so, and he had not been concerned about studying all along.
Li Zuopeng has been hanging Erlang grew up locally, and his parents have always had no choice but to let him abandon school at home. Li Zuopeng, who did not have to study, became more wanton after not being bound by school, and this life lasted until he was sixteen years old.
That year, Li's father and mother Li had some physical problems because of years of labor, and he no longer lived in chaos as before in order to take care of his parents.
He was a filial piety, and under his meticulous care, Father Li's body quickly recovered. And Li Zuopeng, who went through this incident, also seemed to grow up overnight, and he felt a great sense of satisfaction in the process of making money to support his family.
And it was in the process of making money that he met some partners of the same age.
These people are completely different from the state presented by Li Zuopeng, and their hearts are full of yearning for revolution. After Li Zuopeng became acquainted with them, he was gradually moved by their ideas, and finally began to discuss joining the Red Army and striving to change the status quo in his hometown.
At first, Li Zuopeng did not agree at the first time because he was not at ease with his elderly parents at home, and his heart was full of hesitation, but later after his idea was known to Li Father and Mother Li, they encouraged his idea.
The support of his parents made Li Zuopeng full of energy at once, and it was at this time that the Red Army arrived in the Ji'an area. In the face of the emergence of the Red Army, Li Zuopeng's idea of joining the army became more and more intense.
Finally, one afternoon, together with his companions, he went to the registration office of the army and successfully registered, and he officially became a glorious soldier of the Red Army.
When he first entered the barracks, he was always very unaccustomed, because the days in the army were naturally not as comfortable and comfortable as when he was outside.
The intensity of the training he had to receive every day was intense, which made him lose a lot of weight in just a few weeks.
However, although his life in the army was very difficult, he never regretted his decision to join the army, and in the continuous training, his temperament became more and more calm, and his confidence increased sharply every day.
Successfully deciphered the enemy code and helped the Red Army break out of the encirclement
Li Zuopeng soon joined the big family of our party, and perhaps also by good luck, soon after he formally joined our party, he was arranged by the organization to be transferred to the Central Military Commission.
Compared with the previous physical training in the barracks, the most important thing in the work of the Central Military Commission is to be careful. It just so happened that Li Zuopeng was a bold and meticulous person, and not long after he entered the Central Military Commission, he relied on his excellent work ability to work as a confidential room interpreter and telegrapher and combat staff officer.
In the whole process of his work, he has always put the details first, and thus made a lot of achievements.
One of the most famous things was that during the Long March of the Red Army, he relied on his excellent deciphering ability to save the Red Army from the depths of the water.
At that time, the Red Army was encountering the fifth anti-encirclement and suppression, and in order to preserve the main force of the Red Army, the Central Committee of the Red Army ordered the withdrawal.
In order to be able to know in advance the movements of the Nationalist army, the Central Military Commission temporarily and urgently set up a small detachment specifically for deciphering the Kuomintang telegrams, and Li Zuopeng was a member of this improvised squad.
After a war, Li Zuopeng accidentally succeeded in deciphering the Kuomintang code, and Li Zuopeng, who got the code, was very excited, and then spent a few hours successfully obtaining information on the military deployment of the Nationalist government. In this information, the course of action of the Kuomintang troops was described in detail.
After grasping this important information, the Central Military Commission immediately adjusted the marching route of the Red Army and finally successfully jumped out of the encirclement of the Nationalist government.
Enter the resistance to the big as a teacher, into the army to fight the Japanese army
This piece of information was of great significance to the Red Army at that time, and it was also of great significance to Li Zuopeng, who was promoted later, and in his later years, Li Zuopeng also admitted many times that when the Red Army crossed the meadow, it was difficult to succeed without him.
Later, after the strategic victory of the Long March and the arrival of large troops in northern Shaanxi, the Party Central Committee began to establish the Chinese Kang Da in the local area, and Li Zuopeng, as a rare combat talent in the Red Army, was successfully elected to the Kang Da as a teacher.
During the period when Kang Da was teaching, Li Zuopeng performed very well and was truly loved by the students, and he gradually attracted the attention of the principal of Kang Da at that time because of his outstanding performance.
After Lin Shuai got along with Li Zuopeng, he found that Li Zuopeng was a calm and down-to-earth person, and he was very appreciative of such a Li Zuopeng.
Later, when Lin Shuai was the commander of the 115th Division, he specially took Li Zuopeng with him. He attached great importance to Li Zuopeng and handed over the reconnaissance section, one of the most important departments at that time, to Li Zuopeng's hands, and let Li Zuopeng be the head of the reconnaissance section.
Later, Lin was injured in an accident and retreated to the rear, and the 115th Division he led was reorganized.
After the reorganization, Li Zuopeng became the chief of staff of the Shandong Column of the Eighth Route Army, and in this post, he led the Red Army to repel the Japanese attack many times, and used his strength to desperately defend the last important line of defense of the Red Army.
The Japanese army was eventually embarrassed by the tenacity of the Red Army, and they came up with a conspiracy to throw poison gas bombs at the Red Army soldiers. When the gas bomb was released, the Red Army position was instantly wrapped in smoke, and countless Red Army soldiers lost their lives.
Li Zuopeng also unfortunately lost his right eye, but in order to arouse the fighting spirit of the Red Army soldiers, he covered his blind right eye and once again stood up and commanded the troops to successfully repulse the Japanese army.
Misjudgment, political stains appear in later years
Unfortunately, some of his obsessions led to accidents. In the turbulent years that New China experienced, Li Zuopeng made a wrong judgment on his political stance because he listened to the opinions of his old friends, and thus did some wrong things.
Later, when the central government settled the fault, Li Zuopeng was sentenced to 17 years in prison.
However, because he had many old injuries on his body after years of conquest, his physical condition had been very poor, so he was fortunate to be pardoned and released from prison to recuperate.
epilogue
Li Zuopeng's life has ups and downs, even if he has a political stain in his later years, we have no way to deny that our current good life has his credit.
And his late life experience is also a wake-up call for us, we will be very difficult when we pursue what we think is right, and what is even more difficult is that after the pursuit of success, we can always keep our original intentions.
If we fail to do the latter, then our efforts in the former may also be lost.
