Welcome to FireLight Wolf Mountain No. 2605. During the Liberation War, the Third Field Army was a strategic army whose scale, strength, and contribution could rival those of the four fields, and its supreme commander, General Manager Chen Laozong, was rated as the founding marshal after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and served as vice chairman of the Central Military Commission, premier of the State Council, vice chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and many other vice-state-level posts. Under Chen Lao's generals, a large number of Sanye generals were also rated as founding generals, and many people were shortlisted for the generals, generals, lieutenant generals, and major generals. There is a person who can even be on a par with his old boss Chen Shuai in his position.
Let's take a look at the famous generals who emerged in Sanye first: the most famous general is naturally Commander Su, who ranked first among the founding generals; although General Chen was the "number one" of Sanye in the Liberation War, in terms of military command, the chairman personally designated the power of General Su, and some major battles in Sanye, such as the Battle of Menglianggu, the Battle of Huaihai, and the Battle of Crossing the River, were all personally planned and commanded by General Su. However, commander Su's development after the founding of the People's Republic of China was somewhat high and low, and he once served as the chief of the three armed forces, but in 1958 he was criticized by anti-individualism, and gradually faded out of the front line of the army in the later period, and he was not the best general in the army system that Sanye developed, which was somewhat unexpected.
General Zhang Yunyi presided over the Baise Uprising in his early years, was one of the important figures in the founding of the people's army of our party, and was also rated as a founding general by virtue of his outstanding qualifications, but he did not have many actual achievements in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the War of Liberation, and was mainly engaged in logistical support work, which was one of the cornerstones of Sanye. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, due to his old age, Zhang Yunyi's promotion space was relatively limited, and he did not hold a particularly prominent military position. General Zhang Yunyi was born in 1892, the same age as Liu Shuai among the marshals, this age can be ranked second even if it is placed in the marshal, and the oldest among the generals.
Due to their excellent achievements, Sanye produced a number of founding generals, including Ye Fei, Song Shilun, Chen Shiyu, Wei Guoqing, Wang Jian'an, Fu Qiutao, Zhang Aiping, Xu Shipou, Tang Liang, and Zhong Qiguang, who were very famous, among which the highest-ranking general after the founding of the People's Republic of China was General Zhang Aiping. He once served as defense minister and vice premier of the State Council, and was a deputy state-level cadre, but his position in the military system did not reach the level of vice chairman of the Central Military Commission, so he was not the best developed among the founding generals of Sanye. As for Sanye's other generals, most of them later held the rank of commander of the Grand Military Region and deputy chief of the general staff, which was not as good as Zhang Aiping.
The founding general who really promoted sanno the most after the founding of the people's republic of China was a lieutenant general in 1955, who was general Zhang Zhen, the former chief of staff of Sanye. Zhang Zhen was a good partner of Commander Su in Noji, and in many major battles in the later stages of the Liberation War, he was the most powerful right and left hand of Su Zong, and he was able to assist Su Zong militarily, which shows the high military attainment of Zhang Zhen. In the 1980s, Zhang Zhen earned the rank of general, and in 1992 he became the second vice chairman of the Central Military Commission, ranking only after Liu Huaqing.
Among the founding generals from Sanye, Zhang Zhen was the highest-ranking one in the later period, Chen Laozong also served as vice chairman of the Central Military Commission, and Zhang Zhen was the only famous general of Sanye who became the vice chairman of the Central Military Commission as a founding general. It is worth mentioning that Commander Su was rehabilitated in 1994. And it was General Zhang Zhen, then vice chairman of the Central Military Commission, who vigorously promoted this matter, who did his best for the affairs of his old boss and friend, and the general's character is worthy of praise.
Some friends will suggest that General Chi Haotian, who was born in the Sanye 27th Army, also served as vice chairman of the Central Military Commission in the 1990s, so why didn't he list him? This is because when chi haotian was awarded the title in 1955, his seniority was not too high, and he was only a major at the time, so he was not among the founding generals from Sanye. Compared with Zhang Zhen, it belongs to the "rising star".
