967 Peng Dehuai is in the trough stage of his life. While attending a meeting, the founding major general Li Zhongqi , suddenly rushed up and slapped him in public, even more so than kicking him, causing an uproar. So why did Li Zhongqi, a major general, dare to openly attack Peng Dehuai, the founding marshal? What exactly happened between the two?
One is the founding marshal and the other is the founding major general
As we all know, Peng Dehuai is a famous general in our country, ranking second in the founding marshal. He has made outstanding achievements throughout his life and made great contributions to our country. Whether in the War of Resistance Against Japan, the War of Liberation, or in the War of Resistance and Aid Korea, President Peng made great contributions. The great leader Chairman Mao even commented on Peng Dehuai as " Who dares to stand up immediately, only General Peng "!
Li Zhongqi was a founding major general and made great achievements in the War of Resistance Against Japan and the War of Liberation. After the victory of Anti-Japanese War , due to previous injuries, Li Zhongqi retreated from the battlefield and basically engaged in education, contributing his own strength to the revolutionary cause on the other hand.
The whole life of military service, and accidentally resented
Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, the two had basically no intersection . In April 1928, Peng Dehuai, who was the leader of the Hunan Army, officially joined the Communist Party of China and began to join the revolution. At this time, Li Zhongqi was studying at Baoding Yude Middle School in Hebei. He was only admitted to the cavalry department of the Northeast Army Military Academy in 1931, and began his military career.
After the " September 18th" Incident, , Northeast Army adopted the policy of not resisting , and even the three northeastern provinces fell. As a member of the Cavalry Section of the Northeast Army Military Academy, Li Zhongqi was furious when he saw his hometown being slaughtered by Japanese pirates but refused to fight back. Immediately, more than 50 students from the Northeast Military Academy, with the slogan of "not being a slave to the country that was destroyed" smashed the school's armory, carried sharp knives and steel guns, and fought bravely against Japan. Afterwards, he continued to organize his troops, mobilize the masses, carry out guerrilla wars, and serve as the captain of the Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army guerrillas.
October , Li Zhongqi served as the captain of a guerrilla team. Under the heavy siege of the enemy, Li Zhongqi led the team to detour continuously. Finally, the troops broke out of the encirclement, but he was accidentally shot. After the enemy was completely dumped, Li Zhongqi found that his abdomen was discomfort. At this time, there were no doctors or medicines in the team, and even painkillers did not have .
Li Zhongqi yelled, ": Squeeze!" Several soldiers grabbed the muscles on both sides of his wound and squeezed out desperately. The severe pain made him sweat and his whole body tremble, but Li Zhongqi always endured it. uses this method of squeezing and pressing to remove the bullets from . This made the guerrillas trust him more and admire his steel-like willpower.
1936, Li Zhongqi led his team to join Red Army . Nie Rongzhen and Zuo Quan appointed him as the staff of the Cavalry Regiment . On July 28, 1937, after the outbreak of the full-scale civil war, Li Zhongqi served as the acting battalion commander of the Cavalry Battalion of the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army and was ordered to lead the Cavalry Battalion to fight against Japan. At the critical moment of Pingxingguan fighting , Chief Lin and Nie issued an order to Li Zhongqi: " must ensure that the main force annihilates all Pingxingguan enemies. Your cavalry battalion must arrive at Daomaguan in advance, occupy the territory, and block the key path for Pingxingguan enemies to escape and Japanese foreign aid."
at that time, Li Zhongqi was injured six times, but after receiving the order, he did not hesitate at all, and immediately issued a command to send troops and rushed to Daomaguan. Finally, after a day and night of galloping, he used only three platoons of troops to annihilate the defending enemy in Daoma Pass. This created favorable conditions for the victory of the Pingxingguan battle, and also made Li Zhongqi pay attention to the central government. Li Zhongqi was in the rain of bullets, leading by example, without any fear. Even if he was seriously injured, he would never retreat.
938, in a battle in Shayu, Hebei, Li Zhongqi charged in the battle, but the right side of the vertebrae of on his back was injured by a Japanese shell. exploded , a hole the size of a duck egg! Li Zhongqi was bleeding and fainted on the battlefield. Political Commissar Deng Hua and the soldiers thought that his days were not long. As a result, he miraculously recovered and suddenly returned to the team a month later, which made many people sigh--Li Zhongqi is really lucky! Since then, Li Zhongqi has been awarded the title of "House Chief of Staff , who cannot be beaten by ".
955, this brave and warlike soldier was awarded the rank of major general, which shows that this is a rare talent and his future should be bright. So why did he attack Mr. Peng regardless of the influence?
A momentary impulse Half life regret
After the founding of New China , Li Zhongqi served as deputy director of the Organization Planning Department in Beijing and became one of the subordinates of General Peng . However, the work Li Zhongqi did made General Peng very dissatisfied, because since the peace in the world, Li Zhongqi's individualism began to emerge. This is not an isolated case. At that time, a large number of military and political cadres had such a tendency. When Mr. Peng saw this unhealthy trend, he became angry, so removed many people from his post, and Li Zhongqi was one of the people who were removed from his post .
Li Zhongqi lost his position and was transferred to another place to be the chief of staff. He was founded major general. Once he became the chief of staff, the gap can be imagined. Li Zhongqi was resentful in his heart, but he had nowhere to vent, so he could only bury this resentment in his heart. It was not until General Peng was dismissed from his post after the Lushan Conference in 1959. Li Zhongqi Knowing that his opportunity has come, he wants to take revenge on General Peng . In September 1967, General Peng had just been criticized and beaten. His tired body was tortured by the disease and could not hold on. At this time, Li Zhongqi, who was then the deputy commander of Beijing garrison, rushed forward, grabbed General Peng's collar, and punched him hard, and slapped him in the face.
This incident was quickly transmitted back to the center, attracting great attention to . Even if General Peng no longer holds an important position, he has been loyal to the country throughout his life and is devoted to his loyalty. How could he be bullied by a major general? This is the country's dereliction of duty. What's more, there were countless subordinates who had followed General Peng to fight on the battlefield, among which Fu Chongbi, the commander of the garrison at the time, was once a member of General Peng's command. After learning about this, he called Li Zhongqi and criticized him severely, "Peng Dehuai made another mistake. He is also one of the outstanding leaders of our party. The party has policies and does not allow such behavior. As a senior cadre, aren't you embarrassed?" . Li Zhongqi has never been promoted since that moment, until he retired in 1982. I believe that this was also inseparable from beating President Peng.
After more than a year, whenever Li Zhongqi talked about this, he always regretted, " I regret it! At that time, I also thought of those years, and was excited and out of control, and made disrespectful actions to the old leader. Alas..."
Conclusion:
"Impulse is the devil." In any case, everyone has to pay the price for their momentary impulse and be punished irrationally. Whether it is a soldier or an ordinary person, you should think twice about everything. Don’t stick to a small matter, which will affect your judgment and end up suffering.
