introduction
Shanxi is located in the north of the mainland, is one of the birthplaces of the Chinese nation, from ancient times to the present, there is no shortage of celebrities, heroes. As an old revolutionary area, Shanxi began to learn the spirit of the Red Revolution, propagate new ideas, and carry out revolutionary activities during the period of new democracy, and was one of the first areas to establish a revolutionary contingent. Then the Shanxi hero we want to talk about today is Comrade Li Ligong, and what kind of life deeds does he have?
Li Ligong was born in Jiaocheng, Shanxi in 1925, when Shanxi was greatly damaged by the Japanese invaders and suffered heavy casualties. Looking at all this in front of him, Li Ligong was deeply distressed, and his heart was indignant, and unlimited strength emerged, but he alone could not drive out the Japanese invaders, so he wanted to join the Communist Party to change the status quo.
In 1938, at the age of 13, Li Ligong began his revolutionary journey, and once again he could not bear to sigh that he had such ambitions at a young age. At the age of 13, he was still in junior high school, but at that time, he had already joined the team of defending his family and the country, and he was shining on the road. In the face of the Japanese's brutality and inhumanity, fierce heart, massacre of innocent Chinese people, and wanton looting of property, Li Ligong, with his clever and resourceful little head, mastered many military skills in a short period of time, became a small officer of the guerrillas, and shined brightly in the activities of resisting the Japanese invaders.
In March 1940, only two years after joining the revolution, he successfully joined the Communist Party of China and became a very honorable member. Although the times were very turbulent and dark, he was not afraid of sacrifice, walked at the forefront of the team, and took the lead in rushing forward. The moment he joined the Communist Party of China, he was already prepared in his heart to martyr himself, and although his life was good, it was normal for him to be unlucky. He believed that the Communist Party would one day lead all the Chinese to victory in the War of Resistance Against Japan, build a new China, and live a happy life, no longer fearful, full of food, clothing and warmth.
After joining the party, Li Ligong was organized and assigned to Taiyuan, and during his tenure he always adhered to the principle of putting the people first, seeking the welfare of the people in everything, and with the idea of the people jointly developing the revolution, he brought real and practical benefits to many people. Not only that, but also the development of local armed organizations, together with the people to carry out large-scale grain production, expound to the comrades the theory of explaining the revolution, and call on the comrades to join them in the revolution.
At the same time, he also led the local support front to fight against the enemy, actively prepared the materials needed for the war, and paid a lot for the establishment of our new China, and made great contributions. He dedicated himself to the revolutionary cause wholeheartedly for the people, for the party, and was a true servant of the people. Some revolutionaries lost themselves soon after serving the people, but Li Ligong did not, and he did not forget his original intention to serve the country and the people.
It was with such a serious attitude that from 1959 to 1983, Li Ligong grew up as the secretary of the Jinnan Prefectural Party Committee In Shanxi Province to become the secretary of the provincial party committee of the province. At the same time, he was also appreciated by his future father-in-law, Li Ligong's father-in-law was Xie Guoyi, the founding major general of the mainland, and not only that, his wife Comrade Xie Bin was also a female major general who had made great contributions to the country.
He dedicated his life to the motherland, to the development of the motherland, bowed down to the people, and deserved to be remembered by everyone. Maybe good people will attract each other, and his positive attitude of serving the country and seeking the well-being of the people is appreciated by his father-in-law and marry his daughter to him. In the following days, the three of them encouraged together to work together for the welfare of the country and the people, which can be described as a real "red revolutionary home".

Looking back on his life, during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, he actively participated in the Anti-Japanese Salvation Movement. During the Liberation War, he collected front-line materials behind his back and did his best to support the battlefield under extremely difficult and poor conditions, laying the foundation for the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japan. During his tenure as a member of the Communist Youth League, he vigorously cooperated with the Party in completing all his work.
