As we all know, after the founding of New China, ten generals won the highest title of marshal. Thus, these ten also became the ten marshals of the republic.
The ten founding marshals have all experienced the baptism of war, and they have also come out step by step from the grassroots level. It is not that as soon as he joined the revolution, he became an important leader of our army, but through his own efforts and outstanding military and political talents, he slowly stood out and became the pillar of the people's army.
Since the ten founding marshals are all famous generals who came out of the grassroots forces. So, in the military career of the top ten marshals, who were the partners who worked with them? Were they also awarded the rank of marshal in 1955, after the founding of the People's Republic of China?
Commander-in-Chief Zhu, the head of the marshal, since 1928, led the Nanchang uprising troops to meet in Jinggangshan, the Red Fourth Army was born, Mr. Zhu served as the commander, and Chairman Mao was the party representative of the army. In this way, Chairman Mao became an important partner of Commander-in-Chief Zhu in the early days of the revolution.
The two of them jointly built the Jinggangshan Revolutionary Base Area, struggled together for the revolutionary cause, strengthened the revolutionary armed forces together, and established the Soviet Base Area together. You must know that Chairman Mao and Commander-in-Chief Zhu jointly led the revolutionary war until the founding of New China after they joined forces in Jinggangshan. Therefore, the two of them have also become the best pair in the history of our army's war.
During the years of the Revolutionary War, General Peng led the famous Pingjiang Uprising, and then established the Red Fifth Army, of which he was the commander. The political commissar at that time was Teng Daiyuan, and for a long time afterward, Teng Daiyuan served as the political commissar of General Peng. For example, after the expansion of the army, General Peng served as the commander of the Red Third Army, and Teng Daiyuan was the first political commissar of the regiment.
In fact, in the early days of General Peng's revolution, there was another Deng Ping, who was also the earliest partner he worked together in his military career. Mr. Peng's two partners have different division of labor, Teng Daiyuan is the political commissar, and Deng Ping is the chief of staff, and they are the capable generals who belong to Mr. Peng's military.
Deng Ping died heroically during the Long March, and Teng Daiyuan witnessed the victory of the revolution, but because he did not serve in the army, he missed the rank.
Lin Shuai was one of the main commanders of our army in the history of the revolutionary war, and in the early days of his military career, he worked with Comrade Rong Zhen and Comrade Rong Huan. At that time, Lin Shuai was the commander of the Red First Army, Comrade Rong Zhen was the military political commissar of the Red First Army, and Comrade Rong Huan was the director of the Political Department of the Red First Army.
The three of them jointly led the 1st Red Army Corps, participated in the anti-encirclement and suppression war in the Soviet area, and the Long March, and acted as the pioneers of the Central Red Army.
Lin Neluo and the three, in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, also fought side by side in a trench, and jointly led the 115th Division to participate in the famous Battle of Pingxingguan, breaking the myth of the invincibility of the Japanese invaders and winning the first battle.
You must know that in the later Liberation War, Lin Shuai's best partner was Comrade Rong Huan, and the two jointly devoted themselves to the liberation of the Northeast region. At this time, Comrade Rong Zhen was in charge of the Liberation War in North China and became the military commander in charge.
Lin Niro and the three of them have witnessed the victory of the revolution and have also made indelible contributions to the revolutionary cause. Thus, all three generals received the rank of marshal in 1955.
Liu Shuai, the god of war in the people's army, served as the chief of the general staff of the Red Army during the Agrarian Revolutionary War. Later, he was demoted for opposing Li De and became the chief of staff of the Red Fifth Army, and the commander of the Red Fifth Army was General Dong Zhentang. That is to say: in the early days of Liu Shuai's military career, General Dong Zhentang was one of his partners.
In addition to Dong Zhentang, General Zhu Lao, commander-in-chief of the Red Army, and Comrade Jianying, deputy chief of the general staff of the Red Army, can be said to be his partners. Because the three of them at that time were all top leaders of the Red Army General Staff.
If you want to say: Who is the partner who has worked with Liu Shuai for the longest time?
That must be Political Commissar Deng, the two of them started from the Anti-Japanese War period until the founding of New China. Therefore, the Second Field Army led by these two people is also known as Liu Deng's Army.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Comrade Jianying was awarded the rank of marshal, and Commander-in-Chief Zhu was also a marshal. Political Commissar Deng did not serve in the army, so he missed the rank of marshal.
The highly respected Mr. He, in the revolutionary war years, led the Nanchang Uprising, and then participated in the creation of the western Hunan and Hubei base areas, at this time his partner was Zhou Yiqun, and the two jointly founded the western Hunan and Hubei revolutionary base areas and jointly created the Red Second Army.
That is to say: Mr. He's important partner in the early days of the revolution was Zhou Yiqun.
He was also one of the first proletarian revolutionaries to join the revolution and one of the important leaders in the history of the Red Army. It's a pity that in May 1931, the Red Army troops led by Zhou Yiqun were ambushed by the national army near the Jiajia Pavilion in Yueyang, Hunan, and died bravely at the age of 35.
In 1928, Mr. Chen, a Confucian commander in the army, served as the director of the Political Department of the Red Fourth Army. That is to say: at this time, he was working with Mr. Zhu and Chairman Mao. After the expansion of the Red Fourth Army, Mr. Chen served as the commander of the 12th Division, and it can be seen that Mr. Chen can easily handle both military and political affairs.
After the Long March of the main force of the Red Army, Mr. Chen led a small number of Red Army officers and soldiers to persist in the guerrilla war in the south for three years, and his partner at this time should be Xiang Ying. However, during the Anti-Japanese War, he was killed by the betrayal of a traitor in the Southern Anhui Incident.
During the Liberation War, Mr. Chen's best military partner was definitely Su Yu, and the two jointly led the Liberation War in North China. Because of his outstanding military achievements, after the founding of New China, Mr. Chen obtained the rank of marshal, and Su Yu won the rank of general.
Xu Shuai, who was the best at using soldiers, was the commander-in-chief of the Red Fourth Front Army in the early days of the revolution, and Chen Changhao was the chief political commissar of the Fourth Front Army at that time. The two have worked together for many years and have also co-directed a series of classic battles. Therefore, in the early days of Xu Shuai's revolution, his partner should be Chen Changhao.
Friends who may be familiar with the history of the party know that due to some reasons, Chen Changhao's development in the later period was not very smooth, and he himself settled in the Soviet Union for a long time. Therefore, after the founding of New China, Chen Changhao had no chance with the military rank.
During the Agrarian Revolutionary War, Ye Shuai served as deputy chief of the general staff and chief of staff of the Red Army. Therefore, his partners must be the military god Liu Shuai, as well as Zhang Yunyi. Because, these two were once candidates for the Chief of the General Staff of the Red Army and the Deputy Chief of the General Staff.
Zhang Yunyi won the rank of general after the founding of New China, and he was the only founding general who enjoyed the treatment of a marshal.
In the early days of the revolution, Nie Shuai and Luo Shuai jointly took charge of the Red First Army. Therefore, the partner of the two marshals in the early days of the revolution must be the corps commander Lin, that is, Lin Shuai, one of the ten marshals of the founding of the People's Republic of China.
