Political Commissar Liang Cheng during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression
Liang Cheng, formerly known as Liang Jinlong, was born in 1916 in Qiuyang County (now Honghu City), Hubei Province. In 1930, he became a children's regimental commander in his hometown, and soon joined the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, and joined the Communist Party of China in 1933.
During the Agrarian Revolutionary War, Liang Jinlong successively served as a soldier, squad leader, deputy company commander of the Red Second Army, director of the Club of the 17th Regiment and 18th Regiment of the 6th Division, propaganda officer of the Political Department of the Red Second Front, and instructor of the Combat Drama Society. He participated in the anti-"encirclement and suppression" and long march in the revolutionary base areas of Xiang'e, Honghu, and Xiang'echuanqian.
After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Liang Jinlong successively served as the chief of the cadre section of the Tenth Sub-district of the Jizhong Military Region, the political commissar of the 4th Brigade, the director of the Wuzhai County League in Shanxi Province, the secretary of the Wuzhai County CPC Committee, and the political commissar of the 29th Regiment and the 27th Regiment of the Jinsui Military Region. In the spring of 1943, he went to the Second Department of the Central Party School to study, during which time he changed his name to Liang Cheng.
In 1944, wang zhen and Wang Shoudao led by the eighth route army marched south to the central plains with a total of more than 5,000 people, and left Yan'an on November 9, 1944, and Liang Chengfeng was transferred to the fifth brigade to accompany the army to the south.
After the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Liang Cheng successively served as the political commissar of the 1st Regiment of the Jianghan Military Region, the Guard Regiment of the Northwest Hubei Military Region, and the political commissar of the 2nd Detachment of the West Anhui People's Self-Defense Army. In October 1947, Liang Cheng was appointed deputy political commissar and director of the political department of the First Sub-district in western Anhui Province, in charge of military work.
On the morning of July 1, 1948, just after the first sub-district had simply celebrated the 27th birthday of the founding of the Communist Party of China, it received an urgent notice from the Western Anhui Military Region that the enemy was going to encircle the first sub-district and order the troops to quickly move to the junction of the three provinces of Hubei, Anhui and Gansu. Encountering the enemy on the way to the transfer, Liang Cheng took his guards to fight and retreat. In order to cover the breakthrough of his comrades-in-arms, he deliberately led the enemy away, unfortunately, he was shot several times in the back and died honorably, at the age of 32. (Ren Huming)
