Li Jingquan was one of the important generals of our party in the early days. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he was ordered to be the secretary of the Southwest Bureau in Sichuan. Against the very difficult historical background of the early founding of the People's Republic of China, Li Jingquan led the people of Sichuan to create many miracles. Even in a special period, the people of Sichuan provided a lot of food to the whole country to help the people of the whole country overcome difficulties.
Unfortunately, Li Jingquan was treated unfairly in the end, and even his son was beaten to death during this period, which was really angering. After Li Jingquan resumed his post, Premier Zhou specifically asked Li Jingquan whether he wanted to thoroughly investigate the murder of his son. Who would have thought that Li Jingquan would not investigate further? Why is this?
01 Li Jingquan's son was murdered
Li Jingquan was born in 1909 and is from Linchuan, Jiangxi Province. He has been with lofty ideals and ambitions since he was a child. With his own efforts, Li Jingquan was admitted to Jiangxi Provincial No. 3 Normal School. During his time at school, Li Jingquan was deeply influenced by progressive ideas, so he began to participate in some student movements in 1926.
In the spring of 1927, Li Jingquan joined Chinese Communist Youth League . In August of the same year, Li Jingquan organized farmers to participate in Nanchang Uprising . After the uprising, he stayed in Fengshun, Guangdong and insisted on fighting. In 1930, Li Jingquan entered the Central Soviet Area and became a Communist Party member in the same year.
Red Army During the period, Li Jingquan served as Secretary-General of the Political Commissar Office of the General Command of the First Red Army and Political Commissar of the 35th Red Division. In 1934, Li Jingquan followed the First Red Army to participate in the Long March 7, and performed outstandingly during the Long March and was deeply appreciated and recognized by superior leaders.
Anti-Japanese War During the period, Li Jingquan served as the position of the 358th Brigade and the Political Commissar of the Third Military Sub-district, and made great achievements on the battlefield, participated in many important events such as the establishment of the anti-Japanese guerrilla war and the creation of the anti-Japanese base in northwest Shanxi and other important events. It can be said that during the entire Anti-Japanese War, Li Jingquan's performance was quite remarkable. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Li Jingquan served as secretary of the Jinsui Branch of the CPC Central Committee and political commissar of the Jinsui Military Region, leading the land reform movement in the Jinsui Liberated Area. After achieving certain achievements in the Jinsui area, Li Jingquan went to work in the Sichuan Working Committee and cooperated with the People's Liberation Army to liberate the southwest region.
After the founding of New China, Li Jingquan continued to hold important positions in Sichuan, and successively served as chairman of Sichuan Provincial People's Government, first secretary of the Sichuan Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China, secretary of the Southwest Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, and other important positions. In the ten years of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Li Jingquan contributed too much to the construction of Sichuan, so the people of Sichuan have always remembered Li Jingquan's great achievements.
According to Li Jingquan's qualifications and contributions, he could have been awarded the rank of general or general, but because he had already worked in the local area when he was awarded the rank in 1955, he did not participate in the rank, but this did not affect Li Jingquan's prestige and influence in the army.
In the special historical period of the 1970s, Li Jingquan was unfortunately targeted and treated unfairly. It was during this special period that Li Jingquan's son Li Mingqing and his wife Xiao Li were persecuted to death, especially his second son Li Mingqing, who was studying at Beijing Aviation College , and his future was limitless, but he was beaten to death at school, which made people very sad and indignant.
After learning that Li Mingqing was beaten to death, Li Jingquan was heartbroken. You should know that the most painful thing in the world was that the white-haired man sent a black-haired man. However, Li Jingquan himself was still in trouble at that time, so he could not uphold justice for his son. It was not until many years later that Li Jingquan resumed his position.
After Li Jingquan resumed his post, Premier Zhou found him and specifically talked about the death of Li Mingqing that year. After that, he asked Li Jingquan if he wanted to investigate him in depth and must not give up.But no one expected that after listening to Premier Zhou's words, Li Jingquan said on the spot that he would no longer delve into the past. Why is this?
02 Why is Li Jingquan unwilling to continue exploring?
If you want to figure out the essential reason why Li Jingquan is unwilling to continue exploring, we need to first understand Li Jingquan's character and the reasons why he was unfairly treated at that time. Only after understanding these facts and then analyzing the decision made by Li Jingquan will be more reasonable.
Let’s talk about Li Jingquan’s personality first. He has always been a person who is not competing or competing and being friendly to others. These can be seen from Li Jingquan’s experience. He rarely conflicts with others. He can always put the overall situation first and would rather sacrifice some of his own interests than make things difficult for others. Such people are selfless enough.
It is obviously a person with such a good personality, why is he treated unfairly? In fact, this is closely related to the special historical period around 1958. At that time, Li Jingquan was in Sichuan and was the first person in charge. Considering the food problems of the people across the country, Li Jingquan was ordered to take on the important task of transferring grain to support other provinces and cities.
At that time, the situation in the entire country was relatively serious, and many provinces did not have enough food. Sichuan relied on its unique geographical advantages and the continuous efforts of Li Jingquan and others, and finally, after solving the grain problems in its own province, there was still some surplus. Other provinces are in short supply, but Sichuan can have surplus, so the important task of supporting the other provinces is handed over to Li Jingquan.
However, this task was too arduous, so Li Jingquan was under increasing pressure, and often couldn't sleep due to pressure. That period was definitely the most tormented period of Li Jingquan. In just four years, Li Jingquan supported more than 18 billion jin of grain to the rest of the country. For the overall situation of the country, Li Jingquan sacrificed a lot.
However, during this most stressful day, Li Jingquan still complained a little because his work tasks were too arduous. For example, he had been angry with Peng Zhen and said, "You have the State Council, and we have the small State Council here, the situation is just as difficult." It was this sentence that became the fuse for Li Jingquan's criticism later.
In the 1960s and 1970s, many generals who were dedicated to doing things for the people were treated unfairly for different reasons. Li Jingquan even took it out of context for what he once said, and was labeled as a "kingdom of independence" in the southwest region. A hat like
can be said to be quite bad in the historical context at that time, so Li Jingquan was targeted for those years. Even his wife Xiao Li and second son Li Mingqing were framed to death because of this. It was really grief and indignant. Unfortunately, Li Jingquan was unable to protect himself at that time and had no way to protect his wife and children. After more than 0 years, everything was clear, and Li Jingquan was able to resume his position and gain freedom. At this moment, Premier Zhou found Li Jingquan and asked him whether he would investigate Li Mingqing's death to the end. However, Li Jingquan said that he would not investigate further. Why did Li Jingquan make such a decision at that time?
In fact, the unfair treatment he suffered over the years has allowed Li Jingquan to see through too much. He understood that once he continued to investigate the fact that his son was beaten to death, more people would inevitably be involved. At that time, it would not only be unfavorable to the overall development of the country, but more people would also suffer. Li Jingquan, who had already felt the torment, would no longer want anyone to suffer because of it.
03 Conclusion
At the lowest point of his own, this is an unforgivable mistake for anyone, but Li Jingquan was able to focus on the overall situation and think from the perspective of others. In the end, he decided not to investigate the murder of his son. It is really "the prime minister can hold a boat in his belly "!
