The Chinese revolution is a revolution that is truly rooted in the people, and the Communist Party of China is the people's party. Since the founding of our party, countless people at the bottom have had the opportunity to make meritorious contributions to the country, and it has also produced many generals with outstanding military achievements.
However, after these generals entered the upper class, they still did not forget their duties and did things extremely low-key and simple.
Founding Lieutenant General Sun Yi and Admiral Wang Zhen were turned away by the sentries because of their low-key clothing, and made a lot of jokes. There was also such a person, he was a general who had experienced hundreds of battles, and he also made a big fuss, and when he faced the interrogation of the sentry, he directly shouted: "Tell your division commander to come and see me." ”
Tearful farewell to the mother, throw yourself into the revolution
He Jian was born in 1911 in Huang'an County, Hubei Province, to a family called Yu
field
Small village of the village. Due to his family's poverty, He Jian could not go to private school like a child of the same age, but was always educated by his mother. Under the cultivation of his mother, He Jian gradually grew into a young man with lofty ideals who was jealous and hateful and active.
In 1929, after a counter-revolutionary coup d'état launched by the Kuomintang reactionaries, the struggle between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party was officially put on the surface. The Communists first launched the Autumn Harvest Uprising in an attempt to capture the Kuomintang city of Changsha.
However, the big cities were also the strongholds of the Kuomintang forces, and the Red Army returned without success, and later, under the leadership of Chairman Mao, turned to the countryside and opened up the Jinggangshan revolutionary base area.
During this period, Chairman Mao even put forward the road of encircling the cities from the countryside and seizing political power by force, integrating Marxism with China's national conditions.
The CCP began to target the vast rural areas, and seeing the huge and extremely revolutionary nature of the peasant class, they began to carry out the agrarian revolution and win the support of the peasants.
When the flame of revolution reached Hubei, it also ignited He Jian's restless heart. From the mouth of the Communists, he came into contact with the outside world for the first time, heard the word revolution for the first time, and knew for the first time that he was the master of the country at the bottom of society.
The Communist Party's attraction to He Jian was fatal, but it could not rest assured of its old mother
。
His father died unexpectedly when he was young, and his mother raised him with hard work, and now his mother is dying of old age, and it is her son who has provided for her, which is the age of her happiness. How could he leave his mother and join the revolution for the sake of his so-called ideals?
After learning of He Jian's thoughts, his mother pulled him to his side and said softly: "Son, if you want to go to the revolution, you can go, the Communist Party is a party that is the master of the people, and they are all good people."
If the revolution can make us poor and rich, then what is my grievance alone, I can still move, I can take care of myself, you can rest assured. ”
He Jian bid farewell to his old mother with tears and embarked on the road to find the Red Army.
Major General He Jian
He Jian rushed for several days in a row, and finally caught up with the Red Army, and he followed the large troops into the Eyu-Anhui Revolutionary Base Area, which was the second largest base area after the Central Soviet Region. He Jian joined the Chinese Communist Party in his second year in the Soviet Union, when he was only 19 years old.
After He Jian came to the Soviet Area, he saw that the comrades around him were all from poor backgrounds like him, and everyone gathered together with the same dream, which made He Jian feel the warmth of the family again.
When engaging in the land movement, He Jian always rushed to the first place, and he was sincerely happy to see that countless poor people had obtained land. He was never ambiguous about fighting, and although he was seriously injured many times, he still could not frustrate his courage.
The officers and men of the Red Army gave a thumbs up when they saw such a young man in Hubei who was full of energy and dared to fight, and even Xu Xiangqian, chief of staff of the Red Fourth Army, was extremely fond of him and transferred him to his guard.
During the War of Resistance Against Japan, He Jian had participated in the revolution for more than 7 years, and he was no longer the ignorant youth, but had become an old revolutionary who stood alone.
He served as the commander of the brigade in Lishizhongyang County, Shanxi Province, and was ordered to carry out a united front against the Kuomintang troops, which greatly promoted the deepening of cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communists. Subsequently, he took on the task of escorting and helping a large number of patriotic young people to arrive in Yan'an, which promoted the formation of fresh blood in the party.
Later, under the condition that there were not enough generals in the Lunan Military Region, He Jian was ordered to rush to Lunan and serve as the regimental commander. Under his leadership, the new regiment was like a group of vicious wolves, howling and screaming, no less than the veterans.
In the war, when our morale was low, He Jian was also a pioneer, wielding a large knife to lead the charge, and the soldiers under his leadership were all full of fighting spirit, they repeatedly smashed the Japanese army's sweep of the base area, and launched a counterattack against the Japanese army. The regiment also exerted a prestige in the Shandong region, which made the Japanese Kou feel frightened.
On October 1, 1949, the People's Republic of China was founded, and He Jian was already the deputy commander of the 25th Army in Sanye. However, these honors did not confuse him in the slightest, did not stop the pace of his revolution, and He Jian participated in the liberation war in Tibet, foiled the Anglo-American conspiracy to split Tibet, and promoted the liberation of Tibet and the reunification of the motherland.
In the 1955 conferment ceremony, He Jian was awarded the rank of major general.
Military District Spies
The so-called Shomen Tiger Son, He Jian's son, after becoming an adult, also followed in his father's footsteps and became a glorious SOLDIER of the People's Liberation Army. Because of their military duties, the father and son were separated from each other for a long time.
On the way back from a mission, He Jian happened to pass through his son's military district, so he planned to go to the military region to see his son's current situation.
He Jian thought that this was a private matter and he was low-key, so he did not drive or bring guards, wearing old military uniforms and coming to the military region alone. The sentry on duty saw the old man in the distance,
But the old man was dressed in ordinary clothes, and he didn't care, but he didn't expect the old man to ignore him and go straight to the inside of the military district.
The sentry stopped the people and said, "Old man, this is a military restricted area, and you can't enter it." He Jian did not get angry when he saw the soldiers obstructing, but only smiled slightly: "I came to see my son, he is also a soldier inside, can you let me go in and have a look?" ”
But the sentry did his duty, without the slightest intention of letting him in, and the two of them could not stand each other at the door.
He Jian didn't want to go back in vain, so he changed his previous kindness and shouted at the sentry, "Go and call me your Pei Feizheng division commander." ”
When the sentry saw the old man, he was able to directly call out the name of the division commander, but he did not dare to be sloppy, and immediately dialed the telephone number in the division commander's office. Pei Fei was listening to the description of the sentry, and he had already guessed the identity of the person who came, and after hanging up the phone, he trotted all the way to the gate of the military region.
Pei Feizheng saw that the figure of He Jian was indeed at the door, and he hurriedly greeted him and said, "Old Chief, why don't you say a word to me when you come, I will take the wind and wash the dust for you." ”
He Jian just briefly exchanged a few words of greeting with Pei Feizheng, and then went straight to the subject and said, "I came to see my son this time, so you don't want to be silent." I'll leave right after I see it, and I'll have to rush back in the afternoon. ”
He Jian came to the camp, but only looked at it from a distance, saw that his son was all right, turned around and left, and refused the kindness of the division commander's car, and quietly came and left quietly.
Chairman Mao said that we must come from the masses as well as among the masses. General He Jian's low profile is precisely the practice of Chairman Mao's theory, and we should not forget our original intention, inherit the revolutionary spirit of our predecessors, and strive for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation!
