Zeng Shan, a former vice mayor of Shanghai, raised seven children with his wife, two of whom were major generals, and the eldest son, Zeng Qinghong, was elected vice president of the People's Republic of China in March 2003. His sons and daughters have dedicated themselves to the country in their respective posts, and his parents and brothers, firmly believing that only the Chinese Communist Party can save China, have all sacrificed their lives for the country.
Now this land of vigorous and prosperous development under people's feet was protected by countless martyrs at the cost of their lives decades ago, and even at the expense of their entire families to serve the country and fight to defend China's territory to the death. Zeng Shan originally had a happy family, but in order to make the country develop and the people have hope, they put their lives and deaths outside and threw themselves into the struggle.
First, family influence
Zeng Shan was born in Shanxi in 1899, and Zeng Shan's parents raised three sons, including Zeng Shan. His father passed the examination, read poetry and books, and opened a private school in the local area to support the family. Although Zeng Shan's father was a talent from the late Qing Dynasty, he was very progressive in his thinking, believing that the Chinese Communist Party was the only hope for China at that time.
After Zeng Shan's eldest brother learned about Marxism, he resolutely became a member of the Communist Party of China, and under the influence of the eldest brother, Zeng Shan and his younger brother also joined the Communist Party. Tsang-san's father used his private school as an underground information relay station for the Communist Party. All four are contributing to the Chinese Communist Party in their own way.
ZengShan's mother was also involved in underground work. In the end, ZengShan's father was tortured in prison because of the traitor's secrets, but he did not say a single message, and he was heroic and righteous. Zeng Shan's older brother-in-law and younger brother were arrested and killed in 1928 long before their father's death. The Zengshan family contributed greatly to the Chinese revolution.
Second, Zeng Shan's experience
Zeng Shan carried all the grief, but the complete family was separated by yin and yang, leaving him alone in the human world. Zeng Shan did not stop, although he was the only one left, he still fearlessly lived and died, and continued with the faith of the whole family.
After Zeng Shan entered the Communist Party under the influence of his brother, he devoted himself to revolutionary activities. After the establishment of the Soviet government in southwest Jiangxi, Zeng Shan was appointed chairman and mainly led the revolutionary activities in southwest Jiangxi. During his term of office, Zengshan mobilized a large number of young people to participate in revolutionary activities and mobilized the broad masses of the people, providing sufficient material resources and solid logistical support for revolutionary activities.
In the first three "anti-encirclement and suppression" campaigns of the Red Army, the people were mobilized to donate money and materials, and the amount of money and materials he mobilized was huge, and he undertook a lot of burdens on the whole, providing strong support for the war and stabilizing the morale of the army.
After the failure of the fifth "anti-encirclement and suppression" campaign, Zeng Shan fought guerrilla warfare on the front line and cooperated with the Red Army's Long March. Later, ZengShan was sent to the Soviet Union to study. With the outbreak of war, Zengshan returned to China to participate in the battle.
He was ordered to help Xiang Ying and Chen Yi establish the New Fourth Army and other work, and followed the troops to conquer the north and south. During this time, he propagated the party's ideas, established guerrilla forces, recruited party members, worked hard to raise funds and materials for the war, and even helped the local people improve their lives, and made a great contribution to the war.
During the Liberation War, Zeng Shan still insisted on his logistical post, and served as a member of the East China Bureau and director of the Finance Commission. Logistically, Zeng Shan played a huge role, planning the logistics work in an orderly manner, from sufficient grain and grass and artillery shells to medical communications, Zeng Shan tried his best to ensure that every link was running well.
After the liberation of Shanghai, Zeng Shan became the vice mayor of Shanghai. During his inauguration, he happened to meet Chen Yi, who came to Shanghai to take up his post, as a life-and-death friend who had struggled in a trench, the two brothers had a long conversation in the office, recalling the past and feeling a lot.
After the founding of New China, Zeng Shan was appointed to the position of political councilor of the State Council, and then transferred to many posts, continuing to burn himself for the new China, fighting on the battlefield, and cultivating in front of the book case.
3. The sons and daughters of Zeng Shan
Under the guidance of their father and mother, the children of Zengshan not only continued to carry forward the red family style, but even did better. Before 1938, Zeng Shan and Deng Liujin were married in Xi'an. Soon after, the eldest son, Zeng Qinghong, was born. Zeng Qinghong was born in the war-torn era, but was educated and grew up to graduate from the Beijing Institute of Technology.
Zeng Qinghong embarked on the job after graduation, with his own efforts, from an ordinary technical employee, down-to-earth to serve the people, the official position is at the national level, the second son Zeng Qinghuai is very artistic talent, Zeng Qinghuai in various literary and artistic stages, literary and artistic activities to show their skills, many times as the chief planner of large-scale activities.
Later, before Zeng Qinghuai's return to Hong Kong, he received organizational arrangements to go to Hong Kong to perform his mission. Zeng Qinghuai was a special inspector of the Ministry of Culture and vice chairman of the Chinese National Culture Promotion Association. Zeng Qinghuai used his artistic talent to compose his love for the motherland.
The eldest daughter, Zeng Haisheng, was born prematurely, and was almost thrown into the sea for fear of exposing her position at the time of a confrontation with the enemy army. Zeng Haisheng graduated from Beijing University of Technology. Through his own efforts, he was awarded the title of major and served as deputy director of the Staff Office. After his retirement, he was elected as a deputy to the National People's Congress.
The third son, Zeng Qingyang, graduated from the Air Force Engineering College and has published many academic papers in his field, and has studied related technologies. He once served as the director of the Scientific Research Guidance Department of the Academy of Military Sciences and was awarded the title of major general.
The fourth son, Zeng Qingyuan, graduated from the National Defense University, served as deputy director of the Political Department of the Air Force Logistics Department of the People's Liberation Army of the Chinese, and was awarded the title of major general. This was the third of ZengShan's sons and daughters to be awarded the title of major general.
The achievements of Zengshan's children also show that Zengshan and his wife attach great importance to the education of their children. Zeng Shan's wife, Deng Liujin, was a patriotic female Red Army soldier who was not afraid of sacrifice. They have never used their "privileges" to help their children in their studies and work, and their children's achievements are all hard worked by themselves little by little.
summary
Zeng Shan had five children, one serving as vice chairman and three awarded the title of major general. ZengShan's family showed the appearance of loyal martyrs with practical actions, transmitting information underground, actively leading and participating in revolutionary activities, fighting on the front line in wartime, ensuring logistics, raising materials, mobilizing the people, and in peacetime, it still shines in politics, art, and national defense.
It is precisely because there are such generations of Communist Party members who adhere to the great spirit of party building that the country is becoming more and more prosperous. It is also such a family that adheres to the red family style and cultivates the pillars of the country, so that the party will always maintain its youth and lead the people to a better future.
