Chinese people's Liberation Army, there is a unit that has been rumored to be mysterious, that is, the "8341" unit, that is, the Central Guard Regiment. Just say the number "8341", there are many mysterious sayings; For example, when the young Chairman Mao went up the mountain to pray for his mother's blessing, the Taoist commander forcefully wrote down the four numbers of "8341" on his hand; For example, Chairman Mao lived 83 years and ruled for 41 years (starting with the Zunyi Conference in 1935).
These are all folk sayings, in order to spread falsehoods. The external number of the Central Guard Regiment is "8341", which was randomly selected and issued by the General Staff, mainly for the purpose of secrecy. The occurrence of a lifespan of 83 years and a reign of 41 years is only a coincidence; Moreover, the number of the unit will be changed. Therefore, the name of the "8341" unit is not mysterious.
The main task of this Central Guard Regiment, which was formally established in 1953, is to protect the personal safety of the central leadership, so the military quality, political quality and cultural literacy of the commanders and fighters of this unit are very high. The "8341" unit has produced many outstanding generals, such as its first regimental commander Zhang Yaoci and its first political commissar Yang Dezhong, the former with the rank of major general and the latter with the rank of general.
Of the successive guards of the "8341" unit, only one regimental commander was awarded the rank of general, and this general was named Yukigui. Yu Xigui's life story can be described as quite inspirational, from a small hygienist to a general with the rank of general, what kind of hard work is there?
Yu Xigui is a native of Baoding, Hebei Province, born in 1939. In 1958, Yu Xigui joined the Chinese People's Liberation Army, and later joined the Central Guard Regiment - "8341" Unit. When he first entered, Yuki was just an ordinary guard, and at first he stood guard for the great man. Later, under the encouragement and study of the great man's teaching to the guards around him, Yu Xigui, who was interested in medicine since childhood, transferred to the guard training class of the "8341" unit after serving as a guard for 3 months and became a hygienist of the Central Guard Regiment.
This hygienist job was done by Kiki for 4 years, from 1958 to 1962. During these four years, Yu Xigui has been working hard to learn cultural knowledge, and in 1962, he was admitted to Beijing Agricultural University and became a college student. After graduating from university, Yuki returned to the "8341" unit to serve as an assistant military doctor.
Soon after, Yuki entered the logistics department and became a combat staff officer. As a result, he officially changed from a medical worker to a combatant. After the "8341" unit was reorganized into the Central Guard Division, Yu Xigui became the deputy chief of the management section, and by the 1980s, he had successively served as deputy director of the Logistics Department and minister, and became the director of the Central Guard Bureau.
In 1990, he was promoted from Yuki to major general. Four years later, YuKigui assumed the post of director of the Central Guard Bureau, in charge of all the affairs of the "8341" unit. At this time, the "8341" unit became a regular army-level formation unit, and the number was changed many times. This series of transition work was well done by Xi Gui. In 1997, he was promoted from Xigui to the rank of lieutenant general. In 2004, he was promoted from Xigui to the rank of general.
The award of the rank of general is an affirmation of General Yuki Yuki and the best reward for dedicating most of his life to the work of central guards. In 2007, after the retirement of General Yu Xigui, he also served as an alternate member of the 15th and 16th Central Committees. Now General Yukiki is alive, 83 years old, and his body is still very strong.
Judging from General Yuki's life experience, strong execution is really a very good trait, and it is one of the important reasons for the promotion from a hygienist to a general by General Xigui.
