He is the secretary general of the executive department, and when his son goes to study, he wants to send a notebook, but he can spend two dimes all over his body

Cadres of the Eighth Route Army

Li Jianzi, born in February 1910, is a native of Shouguang Dongguan Village.

The Li family is a famous family in the history of Shouguang. Li Jianzi's grandfather is the head of the big family, known as the eighth master, and he is the last person to be raised in the late Qing Dynasty, with a seven-grade title. Before he was born, his father and brother died one after another, and he was raised by his mother and grandfather.

In 1929, when his hometown was in chaos, Li Jianzi secretly ran out, broke into Kanto with his fellow villagers, ran to Shenyang, and worked as an apprentice in a shop, but because he was not used to seeing Japan behaving in Chinese land, he quit his job and returned to his hometown. Grandpa married him and gave birth to a boy and a girl.

In 1930, Li Jianzi was admitted to Shouguang County Middle School. The following year, the "September · 18" incident occurred, and the Japanese army occupied the three northeastern provinces.

Under the leadership of the Shouguang County Party Organization of the Communist Party of China, Shouguang County Middle School launched a salvation movement, and Li Jianzi participated in class strikes, demonstrations, and petitions. Shouguang county authorities sent military police to suppress the student movement and expel the students. Li Jianzi, Yu Gengjin, Yu Lanyou, Guo Ruyu and other four classmates were announced to be expelled.

Li Jianzi left his hometown and came to Beiping to be admitted to the private Wenzhi Middle School in Beiping for further study, and was admitted to the Chinese University in Peking in 1934. In December 1935, Li Jianzi participated in the "1·29" student movement, and performed revolutionary dramas such as "Put Down Your Whip" with his classmates Cui Wei and Zhang Ruifang. He served as the captain of the college picket, was detained and beaten by the Kuomintang military and police, and was arrested and imprisoned. Li Jianzi did not give in, and strengthened his will to struggle.

In 1936, after the test of struggle, introduced by Qi Yanming and Yu Xiu of the Beiping underground party, Li Jianzi joined the Communist Party of China.

At the time of the July · Incident occurred, Li Jianzi was engaged in anti-Japanese rescue activities in Beiping. After the Japan occupation of Beiping, under the leadership of the party, the students of Pingjin formed a group of several hundred students who went south to exile. The exile group propagated anti-Japanese resistance all the way and called on the people not to be slaves to the country. The students went south to exile from Tianjin, and then Yantai to Jinan. Li Jianzi returned to Shouguang's hometown from Weixian County.

After returning to his hometown, he got in touch with Lu Xingsan and Zhang Wentong, who were in charge of the Ludong Working Committee at that time, and threw himself into the struggle to launch an anti-Japanese armed uprising.

Because Li Jianzi's family has a relatively high status in the local area, and he is a college student in Beiping, and he is enthusiastic about resisting Japan, Zhang Jingyue has repeatedly sent people to use relatives, classmates and other connections to win over him, and he is allowed to take the post of minister of political training. Li Jianzi flatly refused.

Zhang Jingyue saw that Li Jianzi was soft and hard, and decided to kidnap him. Li Jianzi got the news and went to Zhao Xiude's house with Wei Peide, Han Kexin and several others to gather and leave at night. At dawn, Zhang Bu surrounded the village, but he pounced.

After the establishment of the Ludong Guerrilla Force of the Eighth Route Army, Li Jianzi served as the political commissar of the brigade, and after the combination of the Seventh and Eighth Detachments, he served as the deputy director of the Political Department of the Ludong Guerrilla Force of the Eighth Route Army.

In the early days of the unit, the struggle was complicated, life was hard, and it was constantly attacked by the enemy, and its comrades were constantly killed and wounded. Wherever he went, Li Jianzi, a political worker, took advantage of every opportunity to propagate and agitate, personally taught the soldiers and the masses how to sing songs of salvation, and used his loud singing voice to inspire the troops' confidence and courage in killing the enemy.

At that time, the weather was freezing and snowflakes were flying. The troops lived in the yards, grass huts, slept on grass bunks, and ate cold meals. At night, everyone huddled together to keep warm, and sometimes it was so cold that they couldn't sleep, and the cadres and soldiers sat around the fireplace to talk. Li Jianzi told everyone revolutionary stories and national heroes, and when it came to the heartbeat, the soldiers felt cold and warm, and their blood was surging.

In the summer of 1938, the army had grown to 5,000 or 6,000 people, with three district (regimental) teams and three directly subordinate brigades, and became an intermediate force in the fight against Japan. Political organs publish teaching materials, establish an educational system, and publish newspapers and periodicals. Register party members, attend party classes, and establish groups and branches. Set up cultural teachers, and the club set up a propaganda team to teach and sing songs such as the three disciplines and the eight points of attention. inspect the discipline of the masses, etc. Veteran comrades all said that Li Jianzi had made major contributions to the political work of this unit.

Li Jianzi handled the problem carefully, solicited opinions from various aspects, and never acted hastily.

During the march he always gave up his horse to the wounded and sick to ride, and walked on his own. After the battle, when comrades suffered casualties and sacrifices, he personally visited and buried them. He is loyal to the party and kind-hearted, and comrades are willing to approach him and confide in him when they have their hearts.

In the winter of 1939, the Ludong guerrillas were ordered to go to the Linyi area and were reorganized into the first detachment of the mountain column, with Li Jianzi as the director of the political department. Soon after, he was transferred to the second subdivision of the Luzhong Military Region of the local army as the director of the political department.

Life in Luzhong was hard and fighting was frequent, but Li Jianzi was very optimistic. He told his comrades-in-arms that after he threw his pen into Rong, a young student who could not put a gun, after many sweeps and battles with the pseudo-stubborn struggle and the Japanese crown, he was now accustomed to fighting life and learned to fight. During the Spring Festival of one year, he wrote a couplet for the landlord, the upper couplet "The mountains and forests are all dragons and tigers", and the lower couplet "The dignified mansion is not allowed to be vertical and horizontal", reflecting his determination, confidence and courage to kill the enemy.

In the summer of 1942, Li Jianzi transferred from the army to local work, and served as a member of the Luzhong Prefectural Committee, director of the Secretariat of the Luzhong District Party Committee, and secretary general of the Luzhong Administrative Office. In the Luzhong base area, he met Cheng Junying, the president of the county women's rescue committee, and the two later became a couple.

The War of Resistance had just been won, and a civil war was about to break out. The eldest son Li Minghui, who was in his hometown, found the Luzhong government and met his father Li Jianzi. Li Jianzi, who was the secretary general of the Luzhong Administration at the time, saw his son coming from his hometown, but because he had lost contact with his hometown for eight years, he didn't know the situation in his hometown, so he asked the child to go home.

After Li Minghui returned, he came back and asked to join the army. Li Jianzi solemnly told his son that if he made a revolution, it would be different from at home, that this was a team for the poor to turn over and seek liberation, and that they should be able to endure hardships. Li Minghui agreed. Li Jianzi sent his son to study in a cadre study class, and wanted to buy him a notebook, but he searched all over his body, only two dimes, and his son Minghui was greatly shocked by this.

In the summer of 1948, Li Jianzi was transferred to Yiyuan County as the county magistrate. Some people are unhappy with him, saying that he was a party member in 1936, and in 1939 he was the director of the political department of the detachment and military sub-district, and that he was conscientious and responsible in his work, loyal and honest, and now he is going down to be a county magistrate, I don't know why. However, Li Jianzi did not complain, on the contrary, he said that he lacked grassroots work experience, and this was a good opportunity for himself to learn and train and enrich his experience.

Li Jianzi dragged his sick body and worked in Yiyuan County for more than a year, and later served as the secretary of the county party committee. In supporting the Liberation War, Yiyuan became a model county in front of the branch.

In 1949, Li Jianzi went south to Shanghai with the army, first serving as the director of the administrative department of the East China Bureau of the Communist Party of China, and then as the secretary of the party committee of the East China Bureau of the Communist Party of China.

As soon as the troops entered the city, there was a shortage of food, and the Central Military Commission stipulated that any military and political cadres should have food stamps for their meals. When Li Minghui's unit arrived in Nanjing, he learned from the newspaper that his father, Li Jianzi, worked in the East China Bureau of the Communist Party of China in Shanghai, so he asked for leave to visit Li Jianzi in Shanghai.

Li Jianzi was very happy to hear that his son had become an instructor in the company, so he took him to the canteen of the agency to eat, and asked him if he had brought food stamps? Li Minghui said indifferently, you are in charge of the administrative office, I still need food stamps for dinner? Li Jianzi said solemnly, there are three disadvantages for you to do this, one is that others will say that you are not good, and Lao Tzu can be an official, so you don't have to pay food stamps; the second is that I am not good, I am in charge of the administrative office, and my son will not pay food stamps when he comes to eat; The third is to say that your unit is not good, and you always want to take advantage of other units.

In the next decade or two, Li Minghui came to his father's place for dinner, always carrying food stamps. Li Jianzi said that there is no need to pay it, Li Minghui said, you said that there are three bad, I remember it!

In 1955, Li Jianzi was transferred to the Central Compilation Bureau of the Communist Party of China in Beijing as the director of the office. After entering the big city, some people could not withstand the sugar-coated shell attack and made mistakes, but he always maintained the fine tradition of hard work and simplicity.

Li Jianzi suffered from a relatively serious stomach problem during the war years, and after the liberation, he underwent two surgeries, and in order to take care of him and buy him nutritious food, he always politely declined. When he came to Beijing to work, housing was relatively tight, and he was assigned to live in a large house that used to be used as a conference room. The house is very large, and it is a room, which is very inconvenient to live in, and the leaders should give a partition. He said that it costs a lot of money to separate the house, so just live there. He used a curtain to separate the house until he left Beijing.

Li Jianzi has been a hobby of reading since he was a child, and he worked in the Compilation and Compilation Bureau, which was a good opportunity for him to deepen his study of Marxism-Leninism, but when Zhizhishang decided to transfer him to Anshan City as the head of the organization department, he gladly accepted it. At that time, the leader of the Organization Department of the Liaoning Provincial Party Committee was his old subordinate from the base area, but Li Jianzi had great respect for the leadership.

He has a high party spirit and a strong sense of organization. When he studied major issues collectively, he had different opinions but did not adopt them for the organization, he always acted according to the organization's opinions to the letter, and even if some things later proved that his opinions were right, he never complained about the organization, did not spread them to outsiders, and did not show himself.

Comrades all said that he had a good democratic style, always solicited the opinions of others when encountering problems, listened with an open mind, considered it repeatedly, and did not think about it himself.

He treated his comrades warmly and sincerely, and always adopted the method of inducing and inspiring and helping him step by step. When the cadres talked to him, he always met him in person and listened to his opinions with an open mind, so that the cadres felt cordial and warm; sometimes when the comrades below made mistakes in their work, he always first assumed the responsibility that the leadership should bear, and then pointed out the comrades' shortcomings, mistakes, and lessons that should be accepted, so that the comrades who made mistakes were happy and sincerely moved. His fine style of being modest and cautious and approachable has left a very good influence on the broad masses of cadres and the masses.

Li Jianzi is strict with himself, his children, and his family. In order to do a good job in this work, he took the initiative to lower his rank from eight to nine, and also lowered the rank of his wife, who served as a confidential secretary, to one level, thus successfully completing the grading work.

When he went to work in Anshan, there were a few cadre reassignment indicators, and his wife Cheng Junying was also in the scope of regrading, but there were many people and few porridges, and it was difficult to balance. He did the work of his wife and mother, and did not give her a grade. Later, when his wife left the house, she found out that her rating was low, and she could not enter the city to work in the rest house, and her treatment was also greatly affected, but she did not blame her husband, but overcame the difficulties by herself.

After Li Jianzi entered the city, his stomach was removed by two-thirds, his liver was also swollen, and his body was very weak, but he still insisted on working day and night. In Anshan, he often went to the steel mill, went deep into the workshop to work, and sometimes worked overtime with the workers at night. Every year on the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, he insisted on going to Angang to make dumplings for night shift workers. He is a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and the head of the Organization Department, and he can be equipped with a car, but he bought a bicycle himself and rides it to work every day.

In 1962, Li Jianzi went to Beijing for a meeting, and his liver hurt so badly that he went to the hospital for liver cancer. He asked the doctor, if it was liver cancer, how long would it last? The doctor said a year, or two years.

The Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee arranged for him to go to Shanghai for treatment. He should seize the time to work, not add trouble to the organization, return to Anshan without mentioning the matter of treatment, and insist on working. Later, the leaders of the municipal party committee insisted that he go to Shanghai for treatment.

He chose to take a boat from Dalian to save some money. The sea was very windy and rough, the ship was small and slow, and the ship went away for three days. He was seasick and his condition worsened. He went and never came back.
