Because of the work, the inn has come into contact with many veterans, and in the communication with them, it is obvious that they can feel the deep feelings of their comrades-in-arms. On the battlefield, comrades-in-arms can live and die, and that kind of trust and that kind of emotion are sometimes incomprehensible to us ordinary people.
Among the founding generals, there was one person who saved two people in succession during the revolutionary period, and after the founding of the country, one became the level of the main state and the other became the deputy state level. Moreover, the admiral himself is also a deputy state level.
This general of immeasurable merit is Yang Yong, a native of Liuyang City, Hunan Province.
First of all, this zhengguo-level cadre is still Yang Yong's relative and cousin of the aunt's family, so let's not say his name.
Yang Yong joined the Red Army at the age of 17 and served as the political commissar of the Tenth Regiment of the Fourth Division of the Red Third Army of the Red Army during the Long March of the Red Army. During a battle, Yang Yong suffered a leg injury and walked on a horse. One day, while on the march, Yang Yong suddenly heard someone on the side of the road calling his name.
At that time, there were many wounded and sick people on the side of the road, because the medical conditions of the Red Army were too poor, and they were eager to march, it was inevitable that some wounded and sick people would not be treated, so they had to resign themselves to fate. Yang Yong heard someone calling his name, and despite the guards' obstruction, jumped off his horse, limped to the side of the road, and found a familiar face.
This wounded and sick man, named Hu Yaobang, was serving as the general secretary of the party branch of the Central Working Group at that time, but because he was sick, he could not walk, so he had to lie on the side of the road with the wounded and sick. Just when Hu Yaobang was about to give up hope, he suddenly found his cousin Yang Yong and called out his name.
Yang Yong quickly called the guards over, helped his cousin onto his horse, and saved his life. Until his later years, when Hu Yaobang mentioned this matter, he still said with emotion: "If General Yang had not given me the horse to ride, I would not have been able to walk out." ”
Hu Yaobang's later events do not need to be said more in the inn, and he became the third general secretary of the CPC Central Committee after Mao Zedong and Hua Guofeng after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and a cadre at the level of zhengguo.
Another person Yang Yong saved was named Yang Dezhi, a native of Zhuzhou, Hunan.
In the history of our army, there is a famous "three Yangs", namely Yang Yong, Yang Dezhi, and Yang Chengwu, all three of whom are famous generals of our army, who served as commanders of columns and corps during the Liberation War, and were all awarded the rank of general in 1955. Interestingly, Yang Yong also saved Yang Dezhi's life.
It was during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and in a battle, Yang Dezhi's troops fell into the encirclement of the Japanese army and looked like they were about to be annihilated. At this time, many generals in the headquarters were also arguing about whether to save or not to save, indeed, at that time, the strength of the two sides was too large, even if a large army was sent to rescue, it was likely that it would not be able to save, but let the large troops lose their strength in vain.
Everyone was arguing endlessly, and Yang Yong slammed the table and shouted, "You don't go, I'll go!" After saying that, he led a unit and rushed into the encirclement of the Japanese army.
After meeting Yang Dezhi, Yang Yong said loudly, "Old Brother Yang, I am here!" Let's fight out together, we have to die together, we have to live together! ”
Yang Dezhi had already lost hope, at this time, when he saw Yang Yong killed in, he suddenly lit a fire in his heart, and the "double Yang" combined, forcing them to kill a bloody road, and finally escaped.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, every time Yang Dezhi mentioned this matter, he burst into tears and said: "If there were no Yang Yong, I would have died a long time ago!" ”

After the 1980s, Yang Dezhi served as chief of the general staff of the People's Liberation Army, secretary of the Secretariat of the Central Committee, and member of the Politburo of the Central Committee.
In addition, it is worth mentioning that Yang Yong also served as the secretary of the Secretariat of the Central Committee, at the deputy state level.
Friends who often look at the historical inn should know that the so-called vice-state level is a state-level vice-chair, including: vice president of the state, vice premier of the State Council, vice chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, vice chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, vice chairman of the Central Military Commission, secretary of the Secretariat of the CPC Central Committee, secretary of the Cpc Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, president of the Supreme People's Court, chief procurator of the Supreme People's Procuratorate, member and alternate member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, state councilor, and other leadership levels that are clearly stipulated as state-level deputies.
Of course, Yang Yong did not just save these two people, he was bold by nature, he has always been helpful, and there are many people who have been saved by him, such as during the Long March, he also saved a small trumpeter. Later, this small trumpeter became the founding major general, named Wang Liusheng.
The Buddhist family has clouds: "Saving a person's life is better than creating a seven-level floating slaughter." "Sometimes you may just raise your hand, but it's enough to change a person's life.
