<h1>I. Wang Yi led the Third Bureau of the Central Military Commission's Yangge Team to pay tribute to Chairman Mao</h1>
After the outbreak of the All-out War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the correct line, principles, and policies enabled the Communist Party of China to develop tremendously. However, some incorrect ideological styles left over from history, especially those left over from Wang Ming's "Left" mistakes, still seriously exist within the Party, and at the same time, the ideological instability of a large number of new Party members of non-proletarian origin has also contributed to the spread of these undesirable ideological styles to a certain extent.
Accordingly, in the spring of 1942, a rectification campaign of the whole party and the whole army was gradually launched from Yan'an.
The rectification movement was carried out with leadership, preparation, planning, and step by step, and the tasks were: to oppose subjectivism to straighten out the style of study, to oppose sectarianism to straighten out the style of the party, and to oppose the eight strands of the party to straighten out the style of writing.
In February 1942, Chairman Mao successively delivered speeches entitled "Rectifying the Party's Work Style" and "Eight Shares of the Opposition Party", and the rectification movement entered a general stage. The broad masses of party members and cadres conscientiously studied the documents and carried out criticism and self-criticism in accordance with the principle of "punishing those who have been punished before and after they have been punished, curing the sick and saving people."
With the general development of the rectification movement of the whole party, the rectification movement of the whole army was also carried out in full swing in the summer of 1942. In June, the Central Military Commission and the General Political Department issued the "Instruction on the Study and Inspection of Rectification work in the army", emphasizing that the purpose of rectification in the army is to oppose dogmatism and empiricism in the military field, enhance party spirit, strengthen unity, and enhance combat effectiveness. The armywide rectification campaign continued until the spring of 1945.
Through the rectification campaign, the whole party has unified its thinking, overcome the warlordism and dogmatic bias in the army's work, strengthened the party's absolute leadership over the army, enhanced the unity of officers and men and the unity of the army and the people, and greatly enhanced the combat effectiveness of the troops.
However, in the work of trial and cadre, Kang Sheng deviated from the spirit of rectification, made an inflammatory report entitled "Rescuing the Lost Foot," and set off a so-called "rescue movement." Since then, some young cadres and intellectuals from the rear areas and occupied areas have been branded as "spies sent in" and "Red Flag Party members." Some were imprisoned, some were besieged in turn, and some were sent to the Central Ministry of Social Affairs for detention and examination. Some comrades on the communication front were treated unfairly.
Chairman Mao promptly discovered the mistake of the expansion of the "rescue movement" and put forward the principle of opposing coercion of confessions and "not killing one, not grasping the majority of the troops," thus saving a large number of revolutionary comrades. After that, although the party organization conscientiously carried out the work of screening and aftermath, some comrades always carried heavy ideological baggage, some were melancholy and dull, and some were worried... Just like after the early spring seedlings were attacked by ice and snow, how much they needed the soothing of the spring breeze and the illumination of the sun!
Soon after, Wang Yi went to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, reported the ideological situation of the cadres of the three bureaus to Ye Jianying, chief of staff of the Central Military Commission, and put forward the idea of asking Chairman Mao to speak to everyone once.
After hearing this, Ye Jianying immediately agreed, saying: "Taking advantage of the opportunity of the Spring Festival to celebrate the New Year, I would like to ask the chairman to come forward to give a speech to everyone and enlighten the mind, which will achieve double the results with half the effort." "
The situation was reported to Chairman Mao, who quickly agreed to Wang's request. Wang Yi was so excited that he didn't sleep well all night.
This year's Spring Festival, Ruixue covers the mountains on both sides of the Yanhe River, like jade and silver inlays. The Third Bureau of the Central Military Commission organized a team of rice songs and rehearsed operas such as "Husband and Wife Literacy", "Twelve Sickles", and "Wang Banchang's New Year's Greeting". Wang Yi attached great importance to the Spring Festival and divided the communication personnel into two groups, with some comrades on duty and some comrades scheduling programs.
Just after the third day of the Lunar New Year, Wang Yi received a call from Chairman Mao's secretary, Ye Zilong: "Director Wang?" Both you and Chief of Staff Ye have reported to the Chairman. The Chairman was very concerned about the communications staff and agreed to give a speech to everyone. Come tomorrow!" "
The news quickly spread throughout the organs of the three bureaus and their subordinate units: Tomorrow we will go to Zaoyuan to pay tribute to Chairman Mao for the New Year, and all radio stations and switchboards will go except the comrades on duty. Everyone rushed to tell each other, and the xichuangou where the three bureaus were stationed suddenly boiled up.
At dawn the next day, the communication warriors scattered in Kawaguchi and Yandianzi gathered from all directions toward the local Peizhuang. The team assembled on the banks of the Yan River, and Wang Yi personally led the team. Behind them were cadres of local organs, technicians of the communication materials factory, operators of the main station, instructors and trainees of the communications school, as well as the operators of the Xinhua Radio Station, the telephone operators of the cable telephone team, four or five hundred people, just like a long winding dragon, and set out toward zaoyuan in the morning sun.
The team of the third inning stopped on the field floor under the cliff of Zaoyuan and formed a large circle. Hundreds of pairs of expectant eyes looked toward the caves halfway up the mountain.
Wang Yi first went to the cave where Chairman Mao lived. After a while, I saw a few people coming out of the cave, and the outline became clearer and clearer.
Walking in front of him was a tall and tall man, wearing a gray cotton hat and an old gray cotton uniform, that kind and familiar gesture, and everyone rejoiced at the sight of it: "The chairman is coming, the chairman is coming!" "
Suddenly, the band beat a cheerful gong and drum, and the song team twisted up as much as it wanted...
Chairman Mao smiled and walked to the center of the scene and said in a loud voice: "The comrades of the third bureau have come to give me a New Year's greeting today, and now I will first pay tribute to the comrades. Congratulations on your achievements in your work! "
The words did not fall, and the audience aroused a warm applause.
Chairman Mao first began with the work of communications: "Our cause has developed from small to large. At first we did not have radios, but when Comrade Wang Yi came, we in the Red Army had radios. Now the three innings have grown to such a big size. You send and receive a lot of telegrams every day. The telegrams and materials we see every day come from you. If you leave your second bureau, the central committee members will have nothing to do in the cave. How to direct without radio! "
Speaking of this, Chairman Mao asked a young man standing next to him, "Do you say that your work is important or not?" "
"Important!"
Chairman Mao smiled and nodded, saying: "As long as a person does work that is beneficial to the revolution, whether on the front line or in Yan'an, it is glorious and important." The more important your work is, the more confidential you have to keep, and you are unsung heroes! "
Then, Chairman Mao encouraged everyone to be at ease and love technical work, and then the topic turned to the "rescue movement."
"Some of you comrades have been wronged in the movement, some comrades have been put on the wrong hat, and some of you are resentful, aren't they?" Chairman Mao glanced at everyone with a cordial gaze, and then said, "The 'rescue movement' is to overestimate the enemy's strength, underestimate his own strength, make everyone in the grass and trees, and make secret agents like hemp, and hurt many good comrades." Fortunately, this is a night exercise, not using real guns and live ammunition, using lime bags, seeing clearly at night, for a while it is not clear that it is their own people who are hit, and they are wrong. At this time, shoot off the lime print, give you a salute, and pay a loss. Comrade, I hit you by mistake! "
In the face of this situation, those comrades who were hit and wronged in the "rescue movement" burst into tears one by one.
Chairman Mao then said humorously: "What do you do with the unggrieved comrades?" You should put your hand out and shake your hand. The mood on the field immediately became active, and many comrades couldn't help but smile heartily.
Chairman Mao said solemnly: "In the work of rectifying work style and examining cadres, we have gained two experiences, one experience is to achieve achievements, and the other experience is to make mistakes. In seven or eight years, our party has grown from 90,000 to more than 1 million, and some bad people have mixed in, and small and pure elements have mixed in. On the one hand, if there are indeed spies, they should adopt a serious attitude and be ideologically and organizationally pure; on the other hand, they should not be spies, they should seek truth from facts, and if they adopt a cautious attitude, if they are not cautious, they will cause chaos, and they must wrongfully accuse their comrades, and our party has a rule, called upholding the truth, correcting mistakes, and proceeding from reality in everything. Whatever is done wrong must be persistent, and whatever is wrong must be corrected for all comrades who wear hats wrongly, and on what occasion we must take them off, admit our mistakes to them, and compensate them for not being our progress. If the Chinese revolution wants to win, it must adopt this attitude."
Chairman Mao looked around at everyone and said kindly and cordially: "Many comrades who have been mistakenly wearing hats have finally proved that there is no problem and are good cadres who have been tempered and tested. Listen to these comrades, you have reason in your hands, reason in your hands. The thing you are holding in your hand is called Theory, you have to put down the baggage, start the machine, lightly load into battle against the enemy, the Japanese devils surround us, Hu Zongnan attacks us, we can't carry the baggage to fight with the enemy. Because carrying baggage, the hands and feet are very inflexible, and you will not be able to win a fight with the enemy; on the other hand, if you put down the baggage and go into battle lightly, then you will be flexible and can use your full body martial arts, and you will win the battle. "
There was a thunderous applause throughout the field, and many people said with tears in their eyes: "Chairman Mao said this, we still have something to say, and what burdens we cannot put down." "
Wang Yi looked at Chairman Mao and at these lovely cadres and fighters led by him, and his eyes were moist.
The song twisted, the stilts stepped on, and the dry boat ran. The melodious shouting sound broke through the sky, and the sound of the heaven-shaking gongs and drums boiled people's hearts.
Chairman Mao pulled Wang Yi to sit down beside him and talked as he watched.
After the performance, Chairman Mao waved his generous hand and said forcefully: "Our cause will develop greatly in the future, and the future will be ours." The enemy of the revolution has not yet been defeated, and for the sake of final victory, comrades unite! "
<h1>Second, when Wang Defamation saw the needle in the sewing, he asked Chairman Mao to speak to everyone</h1>
In October 1945, shortly after Chairman Mao returned from the Chongqing negotiations, he came to the Third Bureau to communicate wirelessly with the LEADERS of the Communist Party of China in Zhangjiakou, along with Ren Bishi and other central leaders.
Naturally, Wang Yi would not miss the opportunity to ask Chairman Mao to do work for everyone.
When Chairman Mao was on the phone in the cave, Wang Yi ordered the comrades of the local organs and the general station to gather urgently, sit neatly on the ground, and set up a small wooden table with a teacup on it under the old pear tree in front of the line.
After a while, Chairman Mao came out of the cave. Wang Yi immediately went to the front of the military salute and invited the chairman to speak, and all comrades warmly applauded.
Chairman Mao waved to everyone with a smile on his face, and then began a colorful speech at the small table.
"Chiang Kai-shek passively resisted Japan, hid in Mount Emei, and after the victory of the War of Resistance, he wanted to go down the mountain to attack the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army, and he wanted to snatch peaches from the hands of the people. Chiang Kai-shek could not have any illusions, mobilized, and prepared to face the all-out civil war he had imposed on the people. Don't be afraid of his millions of troops, if you hurt his ten fingers, it is better to first cut off one finger, ten fingers to the heart, bite off his little finger, it seems that he is still a hand, and then bite off one of his ring fingers. As he spoke, Chairman Mao stretched out his hand and drew it figuratively, completely like a storyteller, instilling the strategic idea of concentrating forces to fight a war of annihilation into everyone's hearts.
After the speech, Chairman Mao shook hands with Wang Wei. He patted Wang Yi's shoulder and said humorously: "Wang Yi, you are really not simple, people are leaders to mobilize the masses, you are the director of the bureau to launch the chairman, and it is to see the needle in the seam, there are many ways."
A word, Ren Bishi and the others laughed loudly.
Wang Wei said with embarrassment: "The chairman's level is high, and one word can not only solve everyone's ideological knots, but also inspire the spirit." "
III. Chairman Mao's instructions: Comrade Wang Wei has made meritorious contributions and should be handled cautiously
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Wang Yi successively served as director of the Third Bureau of the Central Military Commission (later changed to Minister of Communications) and vice minister of the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications of the Central People's Government, director of the Signal Corps Department of the Military Commission of the Chinese People's Liberation Army and president of the Military Electronics Research Institute, vice president of the Fifth Research Institute of the Ministry of National Defense, minister of the Fourth Machinery Industry Department of the People's Republic of China, deputy chief of general staff of the Chinese People's Liberation Army and director of the Fourth Department of the General Staff Department, and other posts, in order to restore and develop the post and telecommunications industry and telecommunications industry in New China. As well as the modernization of national defense, it has made outstanding contributions and established great merits.
In the summer of 1972, Wang had just resumed his work. Ignoring his tortured body, he was bent on grabbing time and work, and the first thing he did was radar confrontation.
Wang Yi personally went to the radar stations on the first line of Guangxi and Hainan Island to actually understand the situation of our radar being jammed by the enemy, so that we could take countermeasures. Marshal Ye Jianying, who was in charge of the work of the Central Military Commission at that time, was particularly concerned about his visit, and repeatedly called from Beijing to inquire about Wang's physical condition.
In Guangxi, Hainan Island, and other places, Wang Yi, who was already sixty years old, completely forgot about the weakness of his body and rushed to various radar stations for several days in a row, carried out investigations and studies, and obtained extremely valuable first-hand materials. After returning to Beijing, he immediately wrote a report to Marshal Ye Jianying and the Central Military Commission, including the establishment of a leading institution for electronic countermeasures.
However, at that time, due to the special period, this report submitted by Wang Wei was sent to the Cold Palace.
In February 1973, at the meeting of leading cadres of the electronics industry, Wang Yi stressed the need to develop electronic countermeasure equipment as a priority development project.
In April 1974, the Three-In-One Work Conference on Electronic Countermeasures was held in Beijing. Deputy commanders in charge of scientific research equipment of all branches of the armed forces and branches of the armed forces attended the meeting.
At this meeting, Wang Yi presided over the formulation of the main tactics and technical principles for the development of radar confrontation, and put forward six suggestions. At the end of the meeting, Wang Yi further put forward specific opinions on implementing the spirit of the meeting and arranging scientific research projects.
The meeting was very successful, mobilized the leading comrades of all branches of the armed forces and branches of the armed forces, gained a common understanding on the issue of accelerating the struggle against electronic confrontation, which is an urgent task of the moment, and wrote a report to the Central Military Commission in the name of the leading group of the meeting.
In May of the same year, Ye Jianying presided over an office meeting of the Central Military Commission to discuss the report. When Wang Yi reported on the situation of the electronic confrontation combined with the meeting and the problems that needed to be approved by the Central Military Commission, the report was again beaten into the cold palace.
The leading comrades of all branches of the armed forces and branches of the armed forces believe that it is urgent to speed up the building of the cause of electronic confrontation struggle.
On May 21, 1975, Kong Congzhou, then deputy commander of artillery, deeply felt that the artillery sight radar he had divided and managed had suffered serious interference from the enemy and had no solution, and deeply admired Wang's serious solution to this problem, so he wrote a letter directly to Chairman Mao.
In this letter, in addition to reflecting the relevant situation in electronic warfare and the situation and problems of our army's electronic warfare equipment, Kong Congzhou emphatically suggested: Establish corresponding leading organs responsible for unified leadership over this aspect of work, and establish special work departments; formulate strategic guidelines and development plans for the development of electronic equipment, and make unified arrangements for scientific research, production, and army building in this regard; pay attention to collecting and studying the situation in electronic warfare of foreign militaries and formulate appropriate countermeasures; and buy time. We should first concentrate our efforts on solving the problem of anti-jamming of our army's existing weapons and equipment, and at the same time actively develop means of reconnaissance and interference against the enemy.
In Zhongnanhai, Chairman Mao read the letter as soon as he received it, and two days later, on June 23, he gave instructions.
The original text of the instructions was: Send it to Comrades Xiaoping, Jian Ying, and Cheng Wu to read. Comrade Jianying asked Comrade Jianying to consult with comrades such as The Second Artillery Hole congzhou several times, in the hope.
After Ye Jianying received the instructions, he immediately instructed Chen Xilian, Yang Chengwu, Wang Yi, and others to exchange views with Kong Congzhou first, and then he personally participated in the study.
In early December, Ye Jianying brought Kong Congzhou and Wang Yi to his home to study the matter.
Ye Jianying first inquired about the situation, and then listened carefully to Kong Congzhou and Wang Wei's opinions. Then, Ye Jianying systematically talked about his views on the strategic objectives, organizational leadership, army building, and personnel training for the development of electronic warfare technology. Finally, several opinions were summarized and formed, which were again submitted to the State Council and the Central Military Commission in the name of the General Staff.
On December 18, Ye Jianying wrote a "Report on Strengthening the Work of Electronic Countermeasures" to Chairman Mao in his name.
On the 20th, Chairman Mao gave instructions: "Very good, Comrade Ye Jianying. "
Wang Yi was very pleased, and through the personal care and support of Chairman Mao and Vice Chairman Ye Jianying, he finally overcame the resistance and opened up the road to studying electronic countermeasures.
Unfortunately, this eventful autumn of 1976 followed. Premier Zhou Enlai, Chairman Zhu De, and Chairman Mao have passed away one after another, the party and the country have fallen into an extremely abnormal state, and many work has actually come to a standstill, so it is naturally difficult to take care of this matter any longer.
"Death before the master is successful, often making the hero cry." Just as Wang Was preparing to make a new contribution to socialism and the modernization of the People's Liberation Army, the disease brought down this tough man with an iron backbone.
In 1977, Wang was diagnosed with cancer. In the last year and four months of his life, Wang Yi continued to work with amazing perseverance, turning the ward into an office and listening to reports. Even in the last moments of his life, Wang Yi still remembered the development of post and telecommunications.
On August 13, 1978, Wang Yi, with an incomparable attachment to the motherland's post and telecommunications industry, completed his legendary life and died at the age of 70.
History is the most just. The people will never forget this "pioneer of our army's communications work"!
