From the weakness and incompetence of the Qing government to the establishment of a new China, this road can be described as full of hardships! The outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression produced countless revolutionary volunteers, who used their own brains, talents, and even blood to defend justice, and finally the birth of a new China! After the founding of New China, they still stuck to their posts and played their role, constantly breaking through themselves for the development of New China!
The great revolutionary I want to talk about today has continued such a life, and he is Peng Zhen! As a native of Shanxi province born in 1902, he caught up with the period of social unrest in his teenage years. During this period, he saw the decay of society, saw the poverty of the people at the bottom, and strengthened his inner thoughts to change the status quo! At the age of 20, he was admitted to shanxi no. 1 middle school with excellent results, where he came into contact with Marxist ideas, which laid a solid foundation for the revolutionary development he thought!
With the increase of age, the revolutionary road is in full swing in China, and at this time he has already become the mainstay of our Party! He has successively gone to many places to serve as committee members and led students to carry out revolutionary activities, from Taiyuan to Shijiazhuang, from Shijiazhuang to Tianjin Tangshan and other places, he single-handedly influenced countless outstanding patriotic young people!
In 1929, Peng Zhen was 28 years old! His personal influence was too great, he was hated by the enemy, betrayed by a traitor of our army, and he was arrested and imprisoned. But this did not stop his revolutionary cause, and even in prison he did not give up his revolutionary cause. After 6 years, he was released after completing his sentence, and the severe torture did not make him submit!
In Peng Zhen's life, he was greatly recognized by Chairman Mao! At the beginning of the War of Resistance Against Japan, he helped the chairman to complete the "Theory of Practice" and "Theory of Contradictions". It is precisely because Peng Zhen had a very profound study of Marxism when he was young that he had a second chance to work with the chairman! When Peng Zhen returned to Yan'an in 1941 to attend the Seventh National Congress, Chairman Mao said to Peng Zhen: "Training cadres is a major event at present. ”
After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan, he was still the first to fight in the front line, during which because of the needs of revolutionary work, he transferred to many posts, after the founding of New China, the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China in 1955 was awarded to the list of marshals, admirals and so on, and it was Peng Zhen who was responsible for reading it at that time! He was very capable of personal ability, so he was entrusted with a heavy responsibility at the end of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and finally in February 1951 he was elected secretary of the Beijing Municipal Party Committee.
Knowing that he is the secretary of the Beijing Municipal Party Committee, his location at such a moment is crucial! Beijing, the capital of our country, the political and cultural center, means that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility! During his tenure as mayor of Beijing, he worked hard for 17 years and left a very deep impression on the hearts of the people during his administration.
It was Peng Zhen who followed his heart for many years and became a zhengguo at the age of 81. In 1997, this year Peng Zhen was 95 years old, because of years of hard work, his body had long been overwhelmed, and he died of illness!
I have to sigh at the obsession of the older generation with the revolution in order to let them grow up in such a difficult environment! Their life has provided us with many valuable experiences that we will cherish even more in our future lives!
