When the title was awarded in 1955, Peng Dehuai, Luo Ronghuan and others encountered a thorny question: What should the generals who came from the Kuomintang uprising do? Is it a title or not? After consultation, only different treatment can be made.
It is not easy to confer titles, not only to look at the achievements, positions, but also to look at seniority and prestige, but also to pay attention to balance.
Other people are good to say, specific reference to a few things can be commented:
[See when you join the revolution, and what are your outstanding contributions in the base areas?
Look at what battles have been organized, and what are the results?
Looking at the posts before the liberation of New China, the corresponding posts have corresponding ranks;
Look at whether in the course of the revolution, there have been obvious mistakes;
Depending on which legion it was originally in, it is not always possible to assign most generals to a single corps. 】
However, these criteria are not easy to use for the generals who have revolted, after all, most of the generals who have revolted have come in the Liberation War.
At that time, Chen Mingren, Tao Zhiyue, and Dong Qiwu were serving in the People's Liberation Army, and it was impossible to say that they were not awarded military ranks. Therefore, the rank of general was awarded.
Some people have proposed that these three people have all been awarded the title of general, so how should Fu Zuoyi, Wei Lihuang, Cheng Qian, and Long Yun, who are more senior, be awarded titles?
Awarded to the Admiral? The problem is that there are only ten places for the generals, which are fixed, and there can be no more.
marshal? How can it be?
Finally, Luo Ronghuan and others asked the Central Military Commission.
The Central Military Commission deliberated on this matter, and finally issued a one-size-fits-all order: These high-ranking Kuomintang officials who have surrendered to the united will not be awarded titles!
So, will these people not understand?
You have to figure it out.
First, Zhou Enlai, Liu Shaoqi, Deng Xiaoping, Chen Yun and others did not award titles, and these people can be described as hard work and meritorious service;
Second, at the time of the conferment of the title, None of these people, Fu Zuoyi, held specific positions in the military;
Third, when awarded to generals, they must have "wronged" them, and there is no quota for conferring "generals."
In this way, "giving certain treatment and not awarding titles" is almost the only correct way.
Pay attention to me, I am the blue wind breaking dawn, taking you to pick up more historical stories.
