< h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > introduction</h1>
In our past wars, many combat heroes have emerged, and with their joint efforts, our country can get rid of the effects of war and become an independent country. After the founding of the country, the leaders of the country also praised these soldiers, and in the ceremony of awarding titles in our country, the contributions of many soldiers were also recognized organizationally. In 1985, zhong Guochu, the founding major general of the people's republic of China, once visited a senior monk, during which time he even called the senior monk an old chief. So, what is the true identity of this monk? What is his connection with our army?
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > Yang Daoming's revolutionary experience</h1>
This mysterious old chief was Yang Daoming, a former senior general in the Red Army. During the period of the agrarian revolution, Yang Daoming had already participated in the construction of the Red Army, and when he was 24 years old, he served as the chairman of the Soviet in Fujian Province, and it can be said that in the process of building the Red Army, Yang Daoming, as a figure of the elder level, also made very great contributions.
After the failure of the Fifth Anti-Encirclement and Suppression Campaign of the Red Army, forced by the influence of war tactics, the team led by Yang Daoming broke away from the Long March and stayed in the south to start a difficult guerrilla war with the enemy. Under the social environment at that time, guerrilla warfare was not easier than the Long March, because of the particularity of guerrilla warfare, so Yang Daoming's team often had to avoid the pursuit of the enemy, in this process, it was also a very normal thing to not eat.
Although this guerrilla war was very arduous, Yang Daoming never thought of giving up. At this time, he also led four regiments under his command and some scattered militia organizations to participate in the struggle, and the aforementioned Major General Zhong Guochu was once a regimental political commissar under Yang Daoming.
< h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > Yang Daoming chose to convert to Buddhism because he was chasing after him by the enemy</h1>
In the Fujian and Gansu troops at that time, dozens of people led by Yang Daoming were also scattered in the guerrilla war, and later, in order to escape the pursuit of the enemy, Yang Daoming also had to assume the name Xie Changsheng and come to a temple to become a monk. In order not to reveal his identity as a Red Army, Yang Daoming also avoided contact with the outside world, and over time, the life of the temple also made him feel at ease, and in the end, Yang Daoming decided to officially convert to Buddhism and stay away from the troubles of the world.
Yang Daoming not only had a high talent in military affairs, but also had a unique hui root in the study of Buddhism, so after the death of the abbot at that time, Yang Daoming also became the new abbot with his own strength. In the days that followed, he also lived in a pure temple for the rest of his life.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > Zhong Guochu's search for the old chief</h1>
As a comrade-in-arms who fought side by side, Zhong Guochu had a completely different fate from Yang Daoming, and when the three-year guerrilla war ended, his unit was reorganized into the anti-Japanese team of the New Fourth Army. After the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the War of Liberation and the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, Zhong Guochu also became a founding general, and he was also awarded the rank of major general during the 1955 award ceremony.
Although Zhong Guochu at that time was already an accomplished and famous officer, in his heart, he always remembered his old chief Yang Daoming, and in the face of the inseparable comradeship, he also inquired about the whereabouts of the old chief in many ways. Finally, kung fu paid off, and in 1985, Zhong Guochu also knew where Yang Daoming was, and at this time, he could not wait to rush to the temple to meet the old chief.
After nearly half a century of separation, the two comrades who had fought side by side finally met again, and the appearance of Zhong Guochu also reminded Yang Daoming of his original war experience. It can be said that it is precisely because our army has produced many such fearless combat heroes in the war that New China can be liberated from the history of humiliation and become a truly independent country.
< h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > concluding remarks</h1>
Through the exploration of the war of that year, we will find that it is not uncommon for people like Yang Daoming to lose contact with the organization in order to avoid the pursuit of the enemy, and for them, although they missed the concentrated reward of our country for combat heroes, in fact, their merits are something we can never forget.
From Zhong Guochu's search for Yang Daoming, it can be seen that even if these excellent soldiers have lost contact with the organization for decades, there will still be people in the army who remember them. It can be said that without the existence of these combat heroes, we would not be able to live such a happy and stable life as we are now. In the days to come, we must always remember the hard work of these soldiers.
