Loyalty is imprinted in the heart, and the haoran fills two rooms.
As the saying goes, "It is difficult for a smart woman to cook without rice"
。
Even the most powerful woman in running the family cannot maintain the functioning of the family life if she does not have the money she needs to run the family; the same is true for marching and fighting, and if there is not enough military pay, even the most powerful generals cannot ensure victory in the war.
During the war years on the mainland, many outstanding generals were troubled by this problem, and their own troops had no money, so they could only go to other armies to borrow, and if other armies had no money, then everyone could only stare at each other and suffer together.
However, there is a pair of cousins who have solved this problem perfectly, they are the elder brother Wang Shusheng and his cousin General Wang Hongkun.
Wang Shusheng's army could only borrow money from his younger brother Wang Hongkun's Red Tenth Division because he really had no money, but unfortunately, Wang Hongkun had just lent out the money and was struggling with it, in order to help his brother solve the problem, Wang Hongkun thought of a perfect solution, that is: lend him a person.
What is even more surprising is that this person is unexpectedly "good", so what happened? Before understanding this problem, let's first understand the protagonists of the story: Wang Shusheng and Wang Hongkun.
I. The "Gap Between Rich and Poor" in Brotherhood
Fight brothers, fight father and son soldiers.
In the era of war on the mainland, there were still many brothers and families on the battlefield, such as Wang Shusheng and Wang Hongkun, the two brothers.
One of them is a general and the other is a general, both of them are the backbone of the revolutionary army, and they all have super combat talents.
If we have to talk about the difference between the two people, we can only say that the "gap between rich and poor" between them is very large, and the Red Tenth Army led by the younger brother Wang Hongkun has sufficient military expenses, and there is no shortage of weapons and equipment, nor is there a shortage of food and drink; however, the Red Fourth Army of the elder brother Wang Shusheng is much poorer.
Not to mention that it is very difficult to feed and clothe the soldiers, and even to maintain a normal three meals a day.
Why is the gap between the two brothers, who are also in the Red Army, so large? This incident is definitely not Wang Shusheng's fault.
In that era of material scarcity, almost all the teams had a very hard time, and the reason why the Red Tenth Army was so rich was mainly because Wang Hongkun and his subordinates were good at collecting materials from every war and constantly replenishing their equipment.
Over time, the wealth of the Red Tenth Army accumulated little by little, and naturally became the "rich man" in the Red Army.
On the other hand, Wang Shusheng's Red Fourth Army was not so poor, and it was able to maintain the basic expenses in the team, but at the end of 1932,
Wang Shusheng must complete a very difficult task, that is, to establish a Base Area in Sichuan and Shaanxi.
Everything is difficult at the beginning, and in the process of creating the base area, everything is unknown, but the daily expenditure of the army is real.
Under such circumstances, Wang Shusheng must grope while ensuring the soldiers' ability to eat and wear.
These expenses need to be solved by the army itself, which can be regarded as worse for the Red Fourth Army, which is not already abundant.
Wang Shusheng had no choice but to put down his face and borrow money from the Red Tenth Army, because of the relationship between the cousins, it was not difficult for Wang Shusheng to borrow money from Wang Hongkun.
However, it just so happened that Wang Shusheng came a step late, and as soon as he arrived on the back foot, the front foot headquarters lent away the excess money of the Red Tenth Army
Therefore, Wang Hongkun's pockets were empty at this time, and there was only enough money left in his pocket for the daily expenses of his army.
This can make the brothers both feel worried, Wang Shusheng knows that if even the Red Tenth Army does not have money, then it is even more impossible to borrow it anywhere else, and Wang Hongkun did not help his brother, and his heart was also very unwilling to go, he flashed a lot of methods in his mind, and finally the opportunity moved, telling his brother Wang Shusheng:
"I don't have any money, but I can lend you someone, absolutely."
Second, lend you a person, absolutely good
After saying that, Wang Hongkun immediately led one of his subordinates to Wang Shusheng, this person was called Wang Youjun, who was Wang Hongkun's right-hand man.
The Red Tenth Army can be so rich, Wang Youjun can be said to be indispensable, he is not only a good hand in the war, but also very good at collecting materials after the war, adding a lot of wealth to the Red Tenth Army.
Since Wang Youjun joined the army in 1930, he has been working under Wang Hongkun, and Wang Hongkun quickly noticed him and entrusted him with heavy responsibilities many times.
And Wang Youjun can do a very good job every time, which makes Wang Hongkun look at him with admiration.
Seeing that his brother had exaggerated Wang Youjun to the heavens and the earth, Wang Shusheng was half-convinced and sent people back to the Red Fourth Army.
Soon after, he found that his brother's praise was really not a whim.
Whether this Wang Youjun is dealing with people or marching and fighting, he can be said to have two brushes.
In 1933, Wang Youjun entered the Red Fourth Army, and as soon as he entered, he showed amazing combat talent and brought a lot of practical combat skills to the Red Fourth Army.
Not only did he lead the troops to fight many victorious battles, but also looted a lot of materials, alleviating the urgent needs of the Red Fourth Army.
In addition, what Wang Youjun is best at is to attack unconsciously, he often uses the night as a cover, leading a squad to quietly grope into the enemy's camp, and then attacking the enemy's old nest in one fell swoop with super high combat effectiveness.
Although this method of warfare is very dangerous, Wang Youjun has never lost his hand because of his boldness and carefulness, and he is fully worthy of the title of "God of War".
Wang Youjun stayed in the Red Fourth Army for only one year, then he was promoted from battalion commander to deputy division commander, and when he returned to the Red Tenth Army in 1935, he directly took over Wang Hongkun's position and became the division commander of the Red Tenth Army.
Unfortunately, at the age of only 24, Wang Youjun was unfortunately killed by a bullet on the battlefield, and a generation of heroes fell.
3. People's Heroes
The Red Fourth Army led by Wang Shusheng had to ask for help from his brother Wang Hongkun's Red Tenth Army because of the tight salary.
It just so happened that Wang Hongkun didn't have money at that time, so he lent his right-hand man Wang Youjun to his brother.
After Wang Youjun arrived at the Red Fourth Army, he quickly proved his ability to Wang Shusheng.
He not only alleviated the urgent need of the Red Fourth Army that it had no money, but also led the Red Fourth Army to win many victories and created countless brilliant achievements.
It is a pity that such an excellent general has left his fresh life on the battlefield forever.
His sacrifice can't help but make the two brothers Wang Shusheng and Wang Hongkun feel sad and regretful, but no matter what, he will always be the people's hero in our hearts and deserves to be remembered and commemorated by future generations.
