Zhu De was born in 1886 to a poor sharecropper family in Yilong County, Sichuan. In 1911, at the age of 25.
Among the main leaders of New China, Zhu De was born earlier, and during the Xinhai Revolution, his experience was already very rich.
In 1909, at the age of 23, he was admitted to the yunnan army lecture hall, which was more advanced at that time. In the winter of the same year, under the influence of Sun Yat-sen's ideas of democratic revolution, he secretly joined the League.
In July 1910, due to the shortage of officers in the Dian Army, he was selected to study in a special class.
In the spring of 1911, he became acquainted with Cai Yi. In August, after graduating early from the special class, Zhu De was assigned to the left team of the 74th standard (equivalent to the regiment) of Cai Yi's department, serving as a deputy head (equivalent to a deputy squad leader) and a few days later as a secretary general.
On October 10, the Wuchang New Army revolted and the Xinhai Revolution broke out.
In mid-October, Cai Yi held a secret meeting with the backbone of the League in the Yunnan New Army to plan the Kunming Uprising and respond to Wuchang. Zhu De and the Yunnan branch of the League actively participated in the preparations for the uprising, stepped up propaganda work against the New Army and the Yamen Guards, and tried their best to accumulate guns and ammunition.
On the night of October 20, the Kunming Uprising broke out. Zhu De was temporarily designated as a team officer (equivalent to a company commander) by Cai Yi in the seventy-fourth bid, and led his troops to attack Kunming City from the south gate of the city overnight.
On November 1, the Yunnan Military Governor's Office was established, and Cai Yi was appointed as the Governor of Yunnan. Zhu De, who was still young in seniority, served as a platoon leader and was responsible for patrolling the streets of Kunming. In December, he was promoted to company commander.

In May, the Qing government announced that the Sichuan-Han and Cantonese-Han railways run by the officials and merchants would be "nationalized." Then he signed loan contracts with Britain, the United States, Germany, France and other four countries, and sold the right of way to imperialism. As a result, Hunan, Hubei, Guangdong, Sichuan and other provinces set off a road protection movement.
Mao Zedong and his classmates were involved in the Changsha Uprising against the Qing government, planned and led by the revolutionaries Jiao Dafeng, Chen Zuoxin, and some members of the Consultative Bureau.
On October 10, the Xinhai Revolution broke out. Soon the Governor of Hunan declared martial law in Changsha. Suddenly, one day, a revolutionary went to the Xiangxiang Provincial Middle School to give a fierce speech, reporting on the uprising and calling for the establishment of the Republic of China. This speech greatly touched Mao Zedong, so he decided to throw in his pen.
At the end of October, Mao Zedong actually joined the army. He joined the left team of the 25th Mixed Formation Association of the 1st Battalion of the 25th Mixed Association of the New Army stationed in Changsha at that time, and served as a private soldier.
During this time, he received serious military training on the one hand, and on the other hand, he seriously studied current affairs and social issues, and most of his monthly salary was used to buy newspapers. In the Xianghan News, which was advocating revolution at that time, the new term "socialism" was seen for the first time. After that, I read some pamphlets on socialism written by Jiang Kanghu and became deeply interested in the issue of socialism.
