Title: "Respect and Friendship: You Taizhong's Noble Character and Wei Jie's Outstanding Leadership"
In early January 1980, You Taizhong, then deputy commander of the Beijing Military Region and commander of the Inner Mongolia Military Region, was appointed by the Central Military Commission and appointed commander of the Chengdu Military Region. After he took over the Chengdu Military Region, he attended the first important meeting. However, before the meeting, Deputy Commander Wei Jie was unwell and rushed to arrive but was late.
Although Deputy Commander Wei Jie insisted on attending the meeting, You Taizhong said that he would wait until he arrived before starting. This modest gesture surprised the staff. When Deputy Commander Wei Jie's car entered the venue, You Taizhong took the initiative to walk to the door and personally greet Wei Jie, calling him "Chief".
Behind such a move lies a deep friendship between superiors and subordinates. Deputy Commander Wei Jie and You Taizhong fought together in the early days of the Liberation War and established a good relationship between superiors and subordinates. Wei Jie's recommendation allowed You Taizhong to take over as the brigade commander, and the two experienced many battles together, such as Dayang Lake and Dingtao. During this period of joint struggle, Wei Jie's command allowed You Taizhong and other troops to win many victories.
You Taizhong has always been a person with integrity and humility, and knows how to be grateful. After he became commander of the Chengdu Military Region, he always had respect for Wei Jie. Although Wei Jie became his subordinate, You Taizhong never had any shelf, but respected Wei Jie more. After all, Wei Jie has been the deputy commander of the Chengdu Military Region for more than a decade and deserves respect.
He personally waited for Wei Jie outside the venue, personally opened the door for Wei Jie, and called him "chief", showing his noble character and fighting feelings. This character derives from the friendship of life and death in battle, a deep emotion that can only be experienced during the revolutionary war years.
The respect and friendship between You Taizhong and Wei Jie is undoubtedly a good story among Chinese soldiers. Their behavior tells us that no matter what position we are in, we should respect and cherish our predecessors and comrades-in-arms, because they have fought with us and given a lot.
Through this story, we can also feel the modesty and respect of You Taizhong, the commander of the military region, and the tenacity and leadership of Wei Jie, the deputy commander. In their words and deeds, they interpreted a noble character and sincere friendship.
