There is such a figure in our Communist Party of China, he joined the Communist Party of China in 1926, and later participated in the Northern Expedition War and the Guangzhou Uprising, and in the War of Resistance Against Japan, he was also the chief of staff of the 2nd Route Army of the Northeast Anti-Japanese League, which can be said to be one of the main leaders of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Alliance, but what he did not expect was why he became the no. 2 figure in Korea later, and his status was second only to Kim Il-sung?
His name is Choi Yong-jin, in fact, people who like to watch Korean dramas, as soon as they see this name, they will guess whether Choe Yong-jin is not a native, and indeed, Choe Yong-jin is a North Korean, born in 1900 in Yongcheon-gun, North Pyongan Province, North Korea.
Korea, like us in China, has indeed suffered a lot of wars in modern times, and just when Choe Yong-kin was 4 years old, the outbreak of the Russo-Japanese War led to the fall of Korea to a japanese colony, and since then it has indeed caused great harm to Choe Yong-kin's country, and the Japanese have indeed been extremely excessive, and have begun to carry out enslavement education, and indeed successfully brainwashed many people, as we all know, in the Nanjing Massacre, in fact, in addition to the Heinous crimes committed by the Japanese army against us, there are actually many South Korean soldiers. The sins they have committed are equally inexhaustible.
However, at that time, Cui Yongjian was not a rebellious person, he was a hot-blooded young man with a strong patriotic heart, so he vigorously opposed enslaved education, and often participated in anti-Japanese demonstrations, but the result was that the resistance demonstration movement of Cui Yongjian and other students had no effect, and it was also brutally suppressed, and Cui Yongjian himself was arrested.
It is because of this that Cui Yongjian also completely felt that if he wanted to save North Korea, it was completely impossible to rely on the strength of students, and there were still a large number of traitors in North Korea, and then Choe Yongjian fled to China, and then began to study military affairs, so that he could reimburse the motherland in the future.
And that old China was also in a very turbulent environment, the Japanese army also covered China, so Cui Yongjian was arrested again not long after, and after Cui Yongjian was released from prison, Cui Yongjian went to Yunnan Tonwutang for military study, and in the next few years, Cui Yongjian began to conduct military studies, and also became alumni with Long Yun, Lu Han and others.
After graduation, Choe Yong-kin went to the Whampoa Military Academy as an instructor, during which Choe Yong-jin came into contact with communism again and was completely attracted to communism, and Choe Yong-jin believed that in the future, North Korea could also slowly advance towards the cause of communism.
Cui Yongjian joined the Communist Party of China in 1926, just during the Northern Expedition, what he did not expect was that the following year Chiang Kai-shek acted perversely, he actually launched a tragic "April 12" counter-revolutionary coup, and then Cui Yongjian followed Ye Jianying and others to participate in the Guangzhou Uprising, although the result failed, but Cui Yongjian was not discouraged at all, because at this moment he had found his own direction in life.
After 1928, Cui Yongjian began to go to the northeast to engage in anti-Japanese work, and after the outbreak of the 918 Incident, Cui Yongjian and his party organized the Northeast Anti-Japanese Coalition Army, and since then Cui Yongjian has begun his anti-Japanese career in northeast China for more than ten years.
Cui Yongjian was indeed the main leader of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Coalition Army, and served as chief of staff and acting commander of the 7th Army of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Coalition Army, and chief of staff of the 2nd Route Army of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Coalition Army.
In 1945, Japan announced its surrender, and soon after, Choe Yong-kin returned to Korea, and after returning to Japan, Choe Yong-kin really had great prestige, successively serving as the director of the security bureau of the Korean People's Committee, the first commander-in-chief of the Korean People's Army, the Minister of National Defense, the supreme deputy commander of the Korean People's Army, and the deputy marshal of the Korean People's Republic.
On September 19, 1976, Choe Yong-gyun, Vice Marshal of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, died of illness at the age of 76.
