Hou Jingjian's young Chairman Mao is impressive
Wang Zhenglin kept pulling his husband to the leek garden.
On the way, the gentleman patiently asked Wang Zhenglin and his teammates about their work and living conditions, and from time to time he said something easy to understand but profound.
At this time, Wang Zhenglin did not know the true identity of this gentleman, but felt that this teacher, who was wearing a long gown, tall and thin, was amiable and full of wisdom.
Although Wang Zhenglin was only 17 years old this year, he was capable and experienced, and left a deep impression on his husband.
The gentleman asked Wang Zhenglin, "It depends on you doing revolutionary work at a young age. Why?"
Wang Zhenglin answered firmly, "For the liberation of the working people!"
Mr.
also said: "If you do a revolution, you must be prepared to sacrifice, including your own life!"
Wang Zhenglin was not afraid at all, firmly and righteously replied: "I am not afraid of death. For the liberation of the working people, I am willing to sacrifice my life!"
Soon, the leek garden arrived.
Wang Zhenglin and this gentleman left in a hurry, and had not met in the following years.
It was not until once that the captain Wang Yingdian told Wang Zhenglin that the person he was escorting was the famous Mao Runzhi and Mao!
This brief exchange made Wang Zhenglin enlightened, as if the bright light was lit in his heart, allowing him to see the light and find the direction as if he was in the dark night.
Wang Zhenglin grew up quickly.
1927 On April 12, Chiang Kai-shek launched the "April 12" counter-revolutionary coup in Shanghai.
The vigorous revolution failed, and the whole country was in a white terror.
In May of that year, 22-year-old Wang Zhenglin resolutely joined the party secretly at the most dangerous time!
02, meet on the battlefield, and have deep affection and friendship. After the failure of the Great Revolution, Wang Zhenglin successively engaged in workers' movements, underground transportation and military transportation in Changsha, Wuhan and other places.
1929, Wang Zhenglin was transferred to work in the local guerrillas of the Red Army in Liuyang.
On August 23, 1930, in order to capture Changsha, the Red Army combined the Red Army 1st Army and the Red Army 3 in Liuyang Yonghe (Commander-in-Chief Zhu De, General Political Commissar Chairman Mao, Deputy Commander-in-Chief Peng Dehuai and Commander of the Red Army 3 gang, Deputy Political Commissar Teng Daiyuan and Political Commissar of the Red Army 3, Chief of Staff Zhu Yunqing , Director of the Political Department Yang Yuebin) .

9, the 1st Liubei Guerrilla Detachment, led by the captain Zhang Zhengkun and political commissar Su Lao, cooperated with the Red Third Army to launch a fierce attack on Changsha.
It’s a pity that due to the huge difference in strength between the enemy and us, the Red Army suffered heavy losses. Zhang Zhengkun, the captain of the 1st Detachment of Liubei Guerrillas, and Su Lao, political commissar.
At the critical moment, Wang Zhenglin served as the captain and political commissar of the 1st Liubei Guerrilla Detachment, and continued to lead his troops to cooperate in combat.
Wang Zhenglin's outstanding performance was highly recognized by Teng Daiyuan, the political commissar of the Red Third Army.
On September 12, Chairman Mao ordered all Red Army troops to withdraw from Changsha in view of the battlefield situation. Wang Zhenglin was ordered to block the enemy who was chasing him and retreat calmly.
When Wang Zhenglin led his troops to retreat to the north of Zhentoushi Village, Hepan, Liuyang, Teng Daiyuan introduced him to Chairman Mao.
After 5 years, Wang Zhenglin met Chairman Mao again.
5 years, the revolutionary situation changed. Wang Zhenglin grew from a picket team to an excellent and qualified commander and fighter. Chairman Mao also had the original "teacher" to become the General Political Commissar of the Central Red Army who commanded thousands of troops and opened up the Central Soviet Area base.
Although Wang Zhenglin has changed a lot, Chairman Mao still feels that the captain named "Wang Zhen" in front of him looks very familiar.
and Wang Zhenglin walked in front of him, and Chairman Mao finally confirmed that this person was Wang Zhenglin who escorted him five years ago.
It turned out that after Wang Zhenglin joined the guerrillas, he changed his name to Wang Zhen.
Over the years, Chairman Mao has heard many times that there was a commander and fighter in the Red Army team named Wang Zhen. He was both civil and military, and his military propaganda work was very good, which made the enemy frightened.
However, Chairman Mao never expected that the young, young, smart, capable, enthusiastic, mature and steady picket team member was Wang Zhen, who became famous in the Red Army.
From then on, Wang Zhen became Chairman Mao’s confidant!
On October 6, at the suggestion of Chairman Mao, several local guerrilla troops in Lotus , 0,000-year , Liuyang , Chaling , , , , , , , , , 1st Independent Division of the Xiangdong Red Army (this is the predecessor of the 22nd Division of the Red 8th Army of the Red Sixth Army) .
Liubei 1st Detachment and Chaling Guerrilla 2nd Clan Team were combined to form the 3rd Regiment of the Independent 1st Division (Captain Tan Jiashu, Political Commissar Wang Zhen) .
Soon after, Wang Zhen was appointed as the political commissar of the Independent 1st Division of Hunan and Jiangxi and director of the Political Department (Teacher Commander Liu Peiyun ) .
1931, the organization prepared to send Wang Zhen to the Soviet Union to study.
When Chairman Mao saw the transfer document, he considered that Wang Zhen was from Liuyang and worked in the Hunan-Jiangxi base area for a long time. He was one of the main founders of the Hunan-Jiangxi base area and was very familiar with the situation of the base area.
He believed that it would be more effective to keep Wang Zhen in the Hunan-Jiangxi base area. Therefore, he said meaningfully: "Wang Zhen is from Hunan-Jiangxi."
With Chairman Mao's insistence, Wang Zhen continued to stay in the Hunan-Jiangxi base area.
03. True love in times of distress, never leaving
11932, after Ningdu meeting , Chairman Mao fell into a trough in his life, his position as the General Political Commissar was revoked, and he was forced to leave the leadership position of the Red Army. His correct proposition was not implemented and he was excluded by Wang Ming, Bogu and others.
Chairman Mao was the chairman of the Soviet government on the surface, but actually sat on the bench.
Many people are worried that they will be implicated when dealing with Chairman Mao, so they often keep a distance from Chairman Mao.
In an instant, Chairman Mao ignored it and the house was neglected.
Long March Wang Zhen stills
However, when Wang Zhen came to Ruijin for a meeting, he was holding a pot of wine and a chicken to visit Chairman Mao.
That night, Chairman Mao and Wang Zhen had a long talk all night.
Gift is light and affection is heavy, and true love is revealed in times of adversity.
In January 1934, Wang Zhen returned to Ruijin to attend the meeting and reported on his work.
This is the fifth "anti-encirclement and suppression" period of the Central Red Army. Under the wrong command of Li De, Bo Gu and others, the Central Red Army's anti-encirclement and suppression operations were failing step by step.
Wang Zhen, who has a hot personality, was anxious and furious, and publicly expressed his determination to firmly support Chairman Mao's tactics.
Wang Zhen had a serious conflict with Li De and Bo Gu at the meeting and ended in an unhappy manner.
After leaving the conference room, Wang Zhen immediately came to Chairman Mao’s home to report to Chairman Mao’s work, and clearly expressed his support for Chairman Mao’s proposal.
When Chairman Mao asked him about his next plan, he said without hesitation: I'll listen to the Chairman!
Wang Zhen's answer moved Chairman Mao very much, and he even couldn't believe it.
Ningdu meeting has ended for two years, and no one has supported himself with a clear attitude like Wang Zhen.
Chairman Mao said meaningfully: "You listen to me? Now it is Bo Gu and Li De in power..."
Wang Zhen nodded with a smile, and then reiterated again: "I will fight as you tell me; I will go wherever you ask me to go. I will listen to you!"
As soon as this statement came out, Chairman Mao was very excited, held Wang Zhen's hands tightly, and said emotionally: "Okay! Wang Zhen is from Hunan and Jiangxi!"
Wang Zhen during the Red Army
Chairman Mao once again sighed, "Wang Zhen is from Hunan and Jiangxi."The seven words
witnessed the deep friendship between Chairman Mao and Wang Zhen! The seven words
also make it impossible for any Red Army general to replace Wang Zhen's special status in Chairman Mao's mind.
04. I have entrusted an important task and respected me. After the Zunyi meeting, Chairman Mao returned to the leadership position of the Red Army.
Wang Zhen, who was the political commissar of the Red Sixth Army at that time, firmly supported Chairman Mao.
Soon after, Zhang Guotao broke up and insisted on going south.

Red Sixth Army Commander Xiao Ke actually agreed with Zhang Guotao's proposal. Wang Zhen under tremendous pressure and cooperated with He Long, Guan Xiangying and others to make a tenacious struggle. Finally, he went north to Shaanxi and Gansu and successfully completed the meeting.
After the end of the Long March, Chairman Mao entrusted Wang Zhen with important tasks and repeatedly asked Wang Zhen to be responsible for the important tasks of defending the central government.
For example, during the War of Resistance Against Japan, Wang Zhen led the 359th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army to defend Yan'an. For example, during the War of Liberation, Wang Zhen led the 1st Column of the Northwest Field Army to also undertake the task of defending the central government.
Wang Zhen during the War of Resistance Against Japan, this is his iconic smile
Chairman Mao once highly praised Wang Zhen's advantages: political reliability, ability to complete tasks, bravery, and not afraid of sacrifice.
The military and political versatility, stand alone, kill the enemy with guns, lay guns and cultivate the land, defeat all kinds of battles, and are invincible. How could Wang Zhen, who is always outstanding and able to complete various difficult tasks, not let Chairman Mao respect and be heart-warming?
Therefore, whenever Chairman Mao had a difficult bone and a sad hurdle, the first thing he thought of was Wang Zhen.
For example, in July 1944, Chairman Mao sent Wang Zhen to lead the southward detachment, first to Guangdong, and then back to Yan'an.
This task is a life-threatening task, but Wang Zhen did not hesitate at all. He led his troops south and north to return, overcome many difficulties, and went through hardships and dangers to fight back a bloody road from Chiang Kai-shek's encirclement.
On September 27, 1946, Wang Zhen led the southward detachment back to Yan'an and successfully completed the second Long March!
In July 1944, Zhu De, Chairman Mao and Wang Zhen inspected the southward detachment and personally welcomed the detachment to practice
Chairman Mao personally met him. When he saw Wang Zhen in ragged clothes, long hair and bearded.
Chairman Mao, tears streaming down his eyes, held Wang Zhen's hand tightly, and said excitedly: "Wang Huzi, you have suffered! You will die for a lifetime, return to Yan'an, amazing!"
Everyone present was moved.
The beard of the king is full of the deep revolutionary friendship between Chairman Mao and Wang Zhen.
The beard of Wang Wang witnessed Wang Zhen’s special status in Chairman Mao’s heart.
