建国初期,唐亮被任命为南京市委书记。唐亮的二舅得知此事后,来到南京,敲响了唐亮的办公室:“我想当兵!”

唐亮却有些困惑:“你都四十岁了,还能当什么兵?”

二舅道:“那就给我个团长当当吧!”

唐亮究竟有没有答应二舅的请求?

“傻子”老实人

在抗战时期,革命队伍中涌现了不少抗战英雄。他们在战场上杀伐果断,性子或不拘小节,或豪放粗犷。

然而有这么一个独树一帜的将军,他在战场上勇猛无畏,在为人处世上却老实得像个“傻子”。

他就是大陆著名的开国上将唐亮。唐亮出生于湖南省浏阳县的一个农民家庭,深受地主压迫。在唐亮刚出生时,家中就已经债台高筑。

在他两岁的时候,父亲因无力偿还债务被地主逼死。母亲无奈,将他卖给地主抵押债务。

唐亮虽然从小生活凄苦,但从未愤世嫉俗。他一直保持着善良坚韧的性格,期待有一天能解救同他一样被压迫的人民。

1927年,唐亮先后加入工人纠察队与农民赤卫队。他一直为保护农民利益做斗争。在1930年,唐亮加入中国工农红军。

自从加入红军后唐亮并未着急立功。他与大多战士不同的是,他喜欢往“没人”的地方走。

别的战士刚入营喜欢擦枪拿刀,参观军营。而唐亮喜欢拿铁锹、提木桶,有什么脏活累活他都第一个冲。

军队中与他一起进来的士兵都会开玩笑说他老实得像个“傻子”。唐亮对于这种调侃的言论充耳不闻。

他虽也怀着一腔远大的志向,但他认为,并不是只有立军功才算做好革命任务。他默默坚守在自己的岗位上。

唐亮日复一日地埋头苦干,引起了上级的关注。上级欣赏唐亮踏实稳重的性格,有意提拔他。

之后唐亮一路高升,凭借着老实又真诚的性格,收获了许多挚友。但即使当了官,唐亮依旧一心为群众做事,宁愿苦自己也不苦他人。

1934年10月,中央红军为了摆脱国民党的包围,决定转移中央根据地,进行长征。

唐亮此时到红三军团随营学校任党总支书记,负责筹备粮草的工作。漫漫长征路上,会经过悬崖峭壁、雪山草地。

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

确保战士们温饱的任务既艰巨又重大。唐亮早早做好了准备,筹备的粮食被消耗完后,他就会提前想办法四处收集粮食。

有时候军队地处偏僻,找粮食需要花上好几天的时间。他为了不耽误大部队的行军速度,会带着几个人单独行动,找到粮草后再追上大部队。

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

有时候遇到崎岖的山路会迷失方向,他要连夜兼程才能找到大部队。遇到恶劣的风雪天气,他会将自己的棉衣脱下来,以免粮草受潮。

在多日的操劳下,即便是铁打的身子也受不住。更何况唐亮在这之前刚参加了广昌战斗,因病进了医院。

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

而他参加长征的时候,身上的病还没有痊愈。终于在一个深夜,唐亮发起烧来,直至凌晨的时候脑袋还是迷糊的。

这时候他身边的小兵发现了异常,唐亮往往是天不亮的时候就会去检查粮草的情况。

但是今天的太阳都露出头了,唐亮还没有动静。小兵心中一沉,他赶紧赶到唐亮身边,轻轻叫了他一声。

唐亮迷糊地睁开眼,见时辰已晚,连忙站起身。动作太猛,唐亮的身形晃了一下。

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

小兵见他脸色发白,连忙扶住他:“书记,您脸色不太好,是不是生病了?要不然今天休息一下吧。”

唐亮摇摇头:“不碍事,我动一动,出了汗就好了,我休息了大家吃什么?”

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

说罢,唐亮站起身又往粮草处走去。小兵见劝不动无奈地叹了口气。唐亮巡查了一番,又拿出地图一看,发现部队下一步前往的地方是雪山。

雪山路途艰险,条件恶劣,士兵们消耗体力大。他必须准备好充足的粮食确保战士爬完雪山。

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

唐亮吩咐下去,负责筹集粮草的人跟在队伍后方,晚走几日。他要将周围的青稞全挖完了再出发。

战士们领命去了。待青稞堆得像小山一般高时,唐亮又吩咐人将青稞磨成粉以便携带。

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

唐亮的身体虚弱,但还是坚持站在原地,检查着工作的进行,以防出现疏漏。这时周总理走了过来。

周总理过来拍了拍唐亮的肩膀:“工作辛苦了!中央纵队现在要往雪山去了,你们能不能将青稞先匀给中央纵队?”

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

唐亮见到周总理激动万分,当即答应下来。将今日筹到的青稞给了中央纵队。周总理感激地点点头,叫他保重身体后便出发了。

一天收集的粮食没有了,唐亮只能带着人再往远处走一走,重新收集青稞。战士们步履不停,他必须争分夺秒地工作。

经过夜以继日的忙碌后,粮草终于准备完毕。唐亮率众人踏上了通往雪山的路。雪山的气候要比他想象的更加寒冷。

凛冽的山风像刀片一样刮过。为了保护粮食,唐亮将自己的棉衣脱下盖在了粮草上,身边的小兵见状红了眼眶,连忙脱下衣服也要效仿。

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

唐亮却制止了:“你年纪还小,正是长身体的时候,以后还要打仗,你要先照顾好自己!”

小兵感动万分,紧紧跟在唐亮身边,为他抵挡风雪。唐亮本身就生着病,现在又受了寒,没过几天就倒下了。

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

众人这才得知唐亮一直带病坚持着。上级得知此事,感动唐亮的“傻气”,叫人好好照顾唐亮。

唐亮休息两天后身体好转,终于醒了过来。众人见他清醒,万分高兴,热情地上前询问唐亮的身体情况。

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

唐亮故作轻松地说没事。这时上级走了过来,笑骂他:“你好好歇着吧!你要是再倒下了,我们吃什么!”唐亮终于不再坚持。

唐亮为他人着想了一辈子。而然就是这样一个老实人也有发脾气的时候。

老实人的脾气

1950年,唐亮被任命为中共南京市委书记。此时正值全国解放时期,全国上下百废俱兴,正是用人之际。

战争结束,唐亮升了职,过上了好日子。但他一直没有松懈下来,他谨记着自己的职责,一直奔走在人民一线。

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

他经常走在南京的大街上,亲自视察南京的建设情况,了解人民的需求。

唐亮大力招纳人才。现在他不缺打仗的战士,他只缺可以建设祖国的有志之士。

有报国无门的知识分子找上他,他二话不说就会好好招待人家,从来不摆官架子。

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

业余时间,唐亮拿起书本,拾起了荒废多年的学业。他在战场厮杀了一辈子,为了百姓,他还是静下心来学起了知识。

这天唐亮正在办公室看书的时候,部下敲响了他的门。部下向他报告,外面有人来找他。

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

唐亮以为又是一个想要建设南京的人才,连忙让人请了过来。结果那人一进门,唐亮便愣住了。

只见来人四十左右的年纪,衣着体面,一脸的富态。这人唐亮认识,正是他的夫人张锐的二舅。

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

唐亮以前光顾着打仗,现在又公务繁忙,跟妻子家里的亲戚来往并不频繁。唯独这个二舅他却印象深刻。

原来是抗战时期,二舅曾经来找过他一次。当时他正任职山东滨海区军区政委,抗战的关键时期,整个军区忙得昏天暗地。

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

二舅找到他说想当兵。当时唐亮十分高兴,二舅作为他的亲戚,能为抗战出一份力,他很欣慰。

为做表率,他将二舅派去运输粮草。他一直和粮草打交道,在他眼里,保障好粮草的安全是十分重要的事,这也算是他对二舅的看重。

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

结果二舅知道他的决定后,脸色顿时变得难看起来,当时他并未察觉到有什么不对。直到第二日,他亲自去看望二舅,才发现二舅早就溜走了。

见二舅这么怠慢他交下去的任务,好脾气的唐亮终于发了火,他回家后告诉自己的妻子,不要再与二舅联系。

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

张锐老家写了信和唐亮道了歉。他们说二舅的身体不好,叫唐亮体谅。唐亮消了气,将这事抛诸脑后。

现在二舅又找上了门,唐亮想起当初的事,心中升起了一丝怨气。他用公事公办的态度直接问二舅:“二舅有什么事吗?”

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

二舅见唐亮有些冷漠,心中有些不满:“一大家子快吃不上饭了,我想来你这当个兵。”

唐亮他没想到二舅还想要当兵,他惊讶道:“你现在都四十岁了,还能当什么兵?”

全国的仗都打完了,军队对于参军的人也有了年龄要求,也不是谁想当兵就能当的时代了。

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

二舅见唐亮一脸不解的样子,不由着急道:“我这个年纪不能当兵,正好当团长啊!”

唐亮一愣,原来二舅是想“走后门”啊!他愤怒道:“开什么玩笑!军队不是你胡闹的地方!你快回家去!”

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

说罢便叫人将二舅带了出去。二舅见唐亮这么不留情面,心中也升起一股怒火:“现在谁当了官不接济亲戚,真是顽固不化!”

二舅骂骂咧咧地走了。唐亮发脾气的事传遍了整个部队,一向和善的书记竟然发这么大火,众人不由疑惑。

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

知道事情缘由后,大家纷纷赞赏道:“唐书记是个不假公济私,一心为人民的好官啊!”

唐亮不仅处处作表率,严格要求自己,他也一直告诫自己的家人,一定要将群众放在自己的前面。

大公无私

1953年,受当时的环境影响,国家下达精简女兵的指令。为了响应国家的号召,军队开始对女兵做退员、转业工作。

军队中哀声一片。年轻些的女兵还好,上了年纪的女兵抱怨的就多些。她们在军队干了一辈子,现在转业和失业有什么区别?

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

和唐亮年纪差不多大的官员夫人都做了退员处理。那些官员受不了家中夫人的埋怨,经常找唐亮喝酒。

唐亮劝他们:“现在是和平年代,从军队中退下来就有时间享受生活了,做别的工作也是为国家做贡献啊!”

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

其中一个战友看他一眼,突然问道:“你夫人还没退呢吧?”

唐亮点点头:“现在还没有,但应该也快了。”

等回到家,唐亮就叫来妻子询问她退员事情的进展。谁料妻子却笑道:“部队体谅咱们家人口多,特准我留下了。”

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

唐亮一听,心中大惊。他一辈子与人民同进退,其他人都按要求办事,他怎么能搞特殊呢?

唐亮立即给部队打去了电话,要求他们公事公办。部队领导没想到唐亮会生气,连忙给张锐做了退员手续。

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

唐亮见妻子有些怨气,安慰道:“委屈你了,我作为上级,必须要做表率,军中的位置应该留给有需要的人,希望你能理解。”

唐亮大公无私,将这种奉献精神教给了自己孩子。他告诫子女们,不要仗着自己父亲的官位就想谋捷径,老百姓家的孩子怎么生活,他们就怎么生活。

The second uncle found the founding general to be a soldier, and he: What kind of soldier do you want to be at the age of 40? Second uncle: I want to be the regiment commander

唐亮兢兢业业,做了一辈子的老实人。不懂他的人会笑他傻,懂他的人则明白他这种无私的精神是多么可贵。

在战场上奋斗了一辈子的唐亮一直称自己是个平凡人,或许平凡的是他对人民一直不变的赤忱。而这种赤忱,让他平凡又伟大!
