The veteran does not have any military rank, and after his death, the 7 major military regions mourn him, what is the special status?
One day in 1950, the commander and political commissar of the Guizhou Provincial Military District were discussing military priorities, when the guards suddenly knocked on the door and handed in a letter, which actually wrote the names of the two of them, Yang Yong and Su Zhenhua looked at each other, the two opened the letter with curiosity, and after seeing the contents, they were very shocked and said: Kong Xianquan is still alive, he did not sacrifice, it turned out that Kong Xianquan wrote a letter, hoping to restore his party membership, although physically disabled, but want to continue to work for the organization.
Yang Yong repeatedly pondered and replied to a letter, writing: "I did not expect that you were still alive, because New China had just been founded, your party membership had not yet been restored, and you were also a missing person, and you wrote to your general Huang Kecheng, the person who introduced you to the party."
Kong Xianquan, who received the reply, wept bitterly, knowing that the organization and the party had not forgotten him, and that his comrades-in-arms had not shirked themselves, and in August 1932, he joined the Communist Party under the introduction of Huang Kecheng, and now if he proved his identity, he could only write to Huang Kecheng.
Huang Kecheng received a letter from Kong Xianquan, personally ran for him to prove it, and hoped that the relevant departments would restore his party membership.
So who is Kong Xianquan? Why did General Huang Kecheng travel around for him to restore his party membership? Why was the commander of the Guizhou Military Region surprised to see his letter?
Kong Xianquan, formerly known as Sun Quan, was born in 1911 in a poor family in Liuyang County, Hunan Province, because of the poor family, from childhood to follow his father to work, no matter how hard, or can not change the status quo, the family to save food, only eat one meal a day, is such a tragic childhood, so Kong Xianquan is very unforgettable.
Kong Xianquan did not want to live such a life again, young he decided to leave this desperate place, when the Red Army came to his hometown, Kong Xianquan joined the Red Army, in the battle with wit and bravery, again and again to overcome dangers, which made Kong Xianquan quickly become an excellent Red Army soldier.
In 1930, the Kuomintang launched the first encirclement and suppression, the Kuomintang 18th large-scale attack on Longgang, in the face of the enemy's encirclement and blockade, the Red Army resolutely launched a counterattack, Kong Xianquan's unit also participated in this encirclement and suppression operation, during the battle Kong Xianquan heroically resisted the enemy, dared to fight and dare to fight, and quickly won the battle, annihilating more than 10,000 enemy troops in the battle, capturing division commander Zhang Huizhen alive, resulting in a sharp rise in the morale of the Red Army.
In the subsequent battles, Kong Xianquan experienced hundreds of battles, and every time he fought, he could see Kong Xianquan's brave killing of the enemy's figure, and Huang Kecheng and others called him: Cheng Biting Jin, who could not die.
Due to the failure of the fifth anti-encirclement and suppression campaign, the Red Army was forced to march, and in the face of the enemy's ambush and pursuit during the Long March, Kong Xianquan defused the enemy's attack several times.
In 1935, Wang Jialie led his troops to pursue and suppress the Red Army, resulting in the slow march of the main force of the Red Army, Chairman Mao's central leaders and others held a meeting, decided to attack the enemy head-on, cross the Chishui River twice, and disrupt the enemy's deployment.
Before the battle began, Kong Xianquan caught the enemy's eyeliner and learned in advance of the enemy's troop deployment from their mouths, so our army won the victory and occupied Zunyi at the same time.
At that time, the Kuomintang troops fled in all directions, but Wang Jialie and others, who had an immortal heart, set up a stronghold at Louguan Mountain, and after a short rest, in order to ensure the victory of the Zunyi Conference, the Central Military Commission decided to launch an attack on Louguan Mountain.
In February of the same year, the Red Army launched a battle against Louguan Mountain, Kong Xianquan led the commando team, attacked its command post, ambushed near the enemy's command post, the comrades did not understand why Kong Xianquan did not launch an attack, only to see Kong Xianquan signaled to his comrades to look in the direction of Zunyi Bridge, saw that the enemy's reinforcements were preparing to cross the bridge, Kong Xianquan calmly and calmly, commanded his comrades to hide with a large tree trench, waiting for the enemy to cross the bridge, Kong Xianquan suddenly launched an attack.
The enemy was caught off guard by the sudden attack, after seeing the number of the Red Army, the enemy launched a fierce counterattack, Kong Xianquan was commanding the battle, only to see him pick up his pistol, constantly shooting at the enemy, killing several enemies, the correspondent around him, set up a machine gun, launched a strafing at the enemy, unfortunately, Kong Xianquan's side was short of ammunition, the Red Army also suffered casualties, the enemy saw it, more frantically launched an attack on the Red Army position, and all the bullets poured onto the Red Army position.
Kong Xianquan, who killed the red-eyed, took advantage of the enemy's change of bullets 1 interval, brandished a saber and rushed out, the large knife spear could not be the opponent of the machine gun, and there was no time to fight with the enemy in close combat, the Red Army fighters had already fallen in a pool of blood one by one, Kong Xianquan was preparing to use the pick-up gun to shoot at the enemy, suddenly felt that his body was out of control, fell in a pool of blood, and saw that his left crotch was already blurred with blood and flesh.
The severe pain made Kong Xianquan sweat profusely, and seeing the enemy getting closer and closer, he endured severe pain, crawled into the ditch next to him, and watched the enemy rush towards him, Kong Xianquan's eyes were very firm, and he was ready to return with the enemy.
At this time, seeing our Red Army support troops, they instantly exchanged fire with the enemy, and just when the two armies were engaged, the soldiers inadvertently saw Kong Xianquan lying in the ditch, covered in blood, and did not know whether he was alive or dead, and the Red Army soldiers immediately carried Kong Xianquan out of the battlefield on a stretcher.
Kong Xianquan learned that he had been withdrawn from the battlefield, his heart was relieved and fainted, and when he woke up, he saw that he was in the rear hospital, the rear hospital was short of medicine, there were not enough medical personnel, the order here was chaotic, some of the wounded could not be treated, the enemy's planes were still circling in this area, as long as the Red Army fighters were found, whether they were red army or not, they would bomb, Kong Xianquan and other wounded people hated it very much, but they could only helplessly because of the lack of anti-aircraft weapons.
Kong Xianquan took out six bullets from his left crotch and was preparing to heal his wounds, and when he returned to the battlefield, the enemy army suddenly bombed the hospital with aircraft, and in the process of bombing by enemy aircraft, the wounded fled in all directions, and many wounded people were blown to the ground, crying and screaming, and it was unbearable to see. Some of the wounded were seriously injured and could only resign themselves to fate, Kong Xianquan was inconvenienced by his legs and feet, his movement was slow, and the wounded fled in all directions, Kong Xianquan was hit on the buttocks by shrapnel, fell to the ground, and did not have the strength to get up.
After the enemy aircraft bombed and left, under its support, Kong Xianquan once again climbed back from the death line, and then greeted the most unforgettable operation of his life.
At that time, due to poor medical conditions, anesthetics were very scarce, only opium water could be used as anesthetic, so as to alleviate the pain during the operation, Kong Xianquan although drinking a lot of opium water, was in a sober state at the time, he let the doctor take out shrapnel, and broken bones, Kong Xianquan with amazing perseverance, persevered over, during the recovery period, there is no painkiller, Kong Xianquan can only use shouting to divert its pain.
During the period when Kong Xianquan was recuperating, the Nationalist army launched a fierce attack on the Red Army base area, the central authorities were forced to have no choice but to transfer, and there were regulations on the arrangements for the wounded at that time, the wounded above the regimental level followed the troops forward, and the local placement below the battalion level was resettled, because Kong Xianquan's name was unknown to everyone in the army and no one knew, the organization arranged for Kong Xianquan to follow the troops, because the wounds had not been healed, Kong Xianquan was forced to arrange for a landlord's home in Bijie County, Guizhou Province, and arrange a doctor and correspondent for him, leaving behind more than 300 yuan of living expenses This made Kong Xianquan feel ashamed of the organization, and at the same time, the organization said to the landlord to protect Kong Xianquan: Take care of him, thank you enough, if the photo is not good, only you are asking. I did not expect that this warning would become a shackle that trapped Kong Xianquan.
In 1937, the Xi'an Incident broke out, the Kuomintang and the Communists cooperated for the second time, the situation was greatly improved, Kong Xianquan was almost sick, and decided to find troops.
I didn't expect the landlord to pull him aside and said: If the Red Army comes and can't see you, I can still have good fruit to eat, during this period of time, the landlord's family is still quite good to Kong Xianquan, Kong Xianquan does not want to involve this family, and also gives up the idea of looking for troops.
Due to the onset of the after-effects of the operation, Kong Xianquan's left leg was 10 centimeters less than his right leg, becoming a disabled person, no longer suitable for the battlefield, in fact, there were many jobs on the battlefield suitable for him, in order not to let the comrades see what he was now, he did not go to the army to live in the world.
In order to be able to fill his stomach, Kong Xianquan worked as a seller, mason, etc., and during his time as a mason, everyone called him: the bricklayer.
Still after the founding of New China, Kong Xianquan had no intention of seeing the newspaper, and found that his old comrade-in-arms was already the chairman of Guizhou Province, and the commander of the military region, Kong Xianquan saw that he had mixed feelings, so he wrote a letter to them, hoping to restore his party membership.
After the two men saw the letter, they said happily: Kong Xianquan is still alive and still in the world.
At the same time, Kong Xianquan wrote to Huang Kecheng, in Huang Kecheng and Yang Yong. With the help of Su Zhenhua, he finally restored his party membership, and Kong Xianquan shed tears of happiness with excitement.
In 1952, the Zunyi Conference Memorial Hall was prepared, kong Xianquan was invited to participate in the preparatory work, participated in the construction, and Kong Xianquan appointed: the first director of the Zunyi Conference Memorial Hall, and now there are more than 2,000 cultural relics in the memorial hall, of which more than 1400 are collected by Kong Xianquan during his tenure as curator.
Kong Xianquan was invited to Beijing many times, and at the same time was received by: Zhu Laoquan, Peng Laoquan and others, Kong Xianquan also specially asked Chairman Mao to write an inscription for the Zunyi Conference Memorial Hall.
In 1965, Kong Xianquan was dismissed as curator, and the reason for this was that people were lamenting, at that time, due to the construction of the memorial hall, a leader of Guizhou Province wanted to expand, but was opposed by Kong Xianquan, saying that cultural relics should have their original appearance, can not be expanded at will, and must respect the authenticity of history.
However, Kong Xianquan's words offended the leadership, and he was also dismissed.
In November 1988, the elderly Kong Xianquan died at the age of 77, and after the death of the old man, the seven military regions of the country sent a telegram of condolences to express high respect for this veteran who had no meritorious achievements.
I would like to pay tribute to the old hero Kong Xianquan with this video
