In 1970, an old man wearing patched clothes came to the military compound. He planned to pay a visit to the local military commander.
When the old man was just at the door, he was stopped by his secretary. Seeing that he was dressed simply, the other party asked him to leave a note and sent him away. After seeing the note, the commander of immediately sent a car to chase him back.
The old man has a not simple identity. He is Sun Yi, the founding lieutenant general who was called "Sun Xingzhe" by Chairman Mao. once made great achievements during the revolutionary period.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Sun Yi held an important position, but he was indifferent to fame and fortune and lived a simple life.
This time I visited to visit my old subordinate who was already the commander, but I didn't expect to be despised by the secretary at the door.
So what kind of resume did Sun Yi have? What did Sun Yi react after seeing the commander?
General Zhu specially approved the beard to grow a
Sun Yi was the deputy of the National Army under the Feng Yuxiang's 6th division in his early years. When he was 21 years old, he suddenly encountered a serious illness and could not get out of bed for several consecutive months.
In that era of underdeveloped medical standards, Sun Yi was very likely to have said in a hurry. Fortunately, Sun Yi finally took it over, but his hair fell out, leaving only his beard.
At that time, Sun Yi was very thin and his whole body was sick, but his beard was very strong, which seemed to indicate the general's unyielding life in the future.
Since then, Sun Yi has decided to keep his beard because they have accompanied him through the most difficult years. After his physical recovery, Sun Yi continued his military career.
At that time, Sun Yi participated in the Northern Expedition and Central Plains War , and served as a lieutenant colonel in the National Army in 1931. However, after Feng Yuxiang was defeated by Chiang Kai-shek, he knew that continuing to stay in the National Army would not be able to save China.
So Sun Yi decisively chose to join Red Army and embarked on the road of revolution from then on.
But soon he encountered a problem. At that time, the Red Army was not allowed to grow a beard, but Sun Yi regarded his beard as his life.
Sun Yi was very hesitant whether to shave off his beard. If he didn't shave, he would face punishment and imprisonment. He couldn't bear to shave himself. Just as he was hesitating, he met Mr. Zhu on the road .
guilty Sun Yi planned to leave quietly. The sharp-eyed Mr. Zhu stopped him and said in a humorous tone that Sun Yi did not abide by the discipline of the Red Army and had a beard without authorization.
Sun Yi was so scared that he was stunned. President Zhu said that he would either punish him or shave him, and let Sun Yi choose one himself.
After hearing this, Sun Yi quickly explained that he said that Hu Zi never left him during the most difficult time and could not be so unfaithful now.
President Zhu laughed after hearing this. He patted Sun Yi on the shoulder and said that he must be loyal in life. can be boldly kept. Mr. Zhu personally approved and allowed it.
Sun Yi's beard was retained, and he also used his practical actions to repay General Zhu's special approval. He performed very well after joining the party in 1933 and showed strong command ability in many battles. After the start of the Long March , he often led the way to charge in battle, opening up a road to victory for the Red Army.
At that time, Sun Yi was already a general and could have obtained the right to ride a horse, but for some reasons, he could only walk the entire distance.
However, Sun Yi did not have much opinion on this and quipped humorously: "There are four legs and two legs." During this period, Sun Yi developed a tough body, and even when he was old, he was very healthy.
But the more important gain was that it left a deep impression on Chairman Mao. At that time, Chairman Mao praised Sun Yi as Sun Xingzhe in the Red Army, and he charged at the forefront every time, as if Sun Wukong was actively taking the Western Classic. After
was praised by Chairman Mao, Sun Yi performed even better, and became a powerful general in our army.
Therefore, in December 1937, Sun Yi was appointed as the principal of the Military and Political Cadre School of the Jinchaji based on the venue. Although Sun Yi himself had not read many books, his performance in the position of principal was no less than on the battlefield.
Sun Yi educated every student patiently, and everyone liked to learn from this bearded principal. Over time, Sun Yi trained a group of outstanding students, who will become rare talents in the army in the future.
visited his former subordinates
After the founding of New China, Sun Yi was awarded the founding lieutenant general and served as the deputy director of the Foreign Training Department of the PLA Training General Department. During this period, he worked diligently and achieved remarkable results.
In April 1970, Sun Yi, who had been living in the north, wanted to go to the south to inspect and learn about the living conditions of the people in the south.
So Sun Yi and the driver set out to the south. During this period, the two passed by a county town in North China. Sun Yi remembered that a subordinate of his former position was now the commander of the military region in the local area, so he planned to visit. Sun Yi usually lives a simple life and never wastes it. Therefore, he was wearing patched clothes at that time.
Sun Yi saw that he dressed casually, so he planned to take this opportunity to test his old subordinate. He told the driver that the commander of the military region was his old subordinate.
will now visit in this outfit. Don’t reveal his identity if anything happens. The driver of
also understood what Sun Yi meant, and then followed him to the gate of the military compound. At that time, there was a sentry in the duty room. When he saw an old man coming, he came forward to ask about the situation.
sentry asked Sun Yi about the purpose of this trip. The other party said that he was from retiring house , and came here this time to see the commander of the military region and wanted to discuss with him if he had something to do.
When the sentry heard that it was a retirement place, he knew that the other party must be an old cadre at the regiment level or above. However, looking at the worn-out clothes and vicissitudes of appearance, the sentry began to doubt the identity of the old man.
So the sentry asked the other party's name half-believingly, and Sun Yi also understood the other party's vigilance, and so he told the sentry that his name was Sun Yi.
Sentinel also knew that Sun Yi was a famous founding lieutenant general, but he did not recognize the old man in front of him. Then he asked Sun Yi to go to the duty room to wait and called the commander's office himself.
answered the phone with the secretary. When the secretary heard that the other party claimed to be Sun Yi, and even called to see the commander, he suspected that the other party was a liar.
Secretary didn't hear that Sun Yi was coming to see the commander at that time, and he also learned that the old man was hiking, without a special car, and was wearing clothes full of patches.
So he informed the sentry and asked him to convey it to Sun Yi that the commander was going out for a meeting now, and has not been in the military region these days, and then sent the old man away.
After hearing this, the sentry conveyed the secretary's words to Sun Yi. Sun Yi knew that the other party was doubting his identity. After listening to the sentry's words, he said that he would wait here and let him do other things.
At this moment, the secretary came out of the office and saw the simple-dressed old man in the duty room. Then he began to look at Sun Yi carefully.
Secretary looked at the down-and-out old man in front of him, and felt even more unbelievable that the other party was Lieutenant General Sun Yi, thinking that he was likely to come to the commander to ask for welfare funds under the banner of an old cadre.
So the secretary walked over and told Sun Yi, claiming that the commander had gone out for a meeting and had no time to meet you, so he asked Sun Yi to leave quickly.Secretary
revealed a lot of disdain in his words. Sun Yi listened to it all, but he had no emotion, but continued to wait calmly.
Time passed minute by minute, and Sun Yi waited for two hours from afternoon to dusk. Seeing that the commander had not appeared yet, Sun Yi planned to leave with disappointment, and left a note before left.
Sun Yi wrote on the note: Today, the old man Sun came to visit, and it happened that the commander was out and had no chance to meet. He looked forward to seeing him another day. The note at the end of the
mentioned his name Sun Yi.
At this time, the secretary happened to come back. The sentry handed over the old man's note to the secretary. The secretary did not look at it carefully at the time and put the note on the commander's desk. After the commander of
came back, he saw the note and was stunned. He immediately called the secretary and asked if the person who left the note was an old cadre named Sun Yi?
Secretary explained the situation truthfully. Looking at the commander's nervous expression, the secretary also realized that he had made a big mistake. It turned out that the down-and-out old man just now was really Lieutenant General Sun Yi. The commander of
was shocked, and then left for his private car and ordered the driver to catch up with the departing old man.
Historical comrade
Not long after Sun Yi and the driver left, the commander's special car appeared behind them. Seeing this, Sun Yi understood that it was his own note handed over. The commander saw that the so-called "how many days of going out for a meeting were all lies. The
special car stopped beside the two of them. The commander quickly got out of the car and apologized to Sun Yi, and the secretary also apologized repeatedly.
After hearing the words of the two, Sun Yi smiled faintly and said: "Not blame you, I am an idle person. You are busy with work, which is understandable."
Then the commander invited the two to the living room of the banquet. During this period, he poured tea and handed cigarettes, and said a lot of apology. After hearing this, Sun Yi just laughed and left shortly after sitting.
Since then, Sun Yi has never contacted this commander again. He is very disappointed with his former subordinate Sun Yi. He has taught this subordinate to serve the people wholeheartedly.
Now it seems that this commander has forgotten everything. After gaining fame and fortune, the secretary he taught was a arrogant cadre. You can imagine what kind of treatment he would be if he came to the people.
Sun Yi’s own approach interprets his beliefs well. After obtaining the rank of lieutenant general, he did not feel much joy in his heart because he thought he was not worthy of his position. After
, he also reported this to the central government. Of course, the Central Committee saw Sun Yi's contribution, and the rank of lieutenant general was well deserved. After
obtained the rank of lieutenant general, Sun Yi demanded himself more strictly. usually cares about the lives of the people and often provides help to them.
Sun Yi would usually go stroll on the street to see the living conditions of the people. In everyone's eyes, Sun Yi is like an ordinary old man, and he would chat with everyone when he has nothing to do.
After a long time, everyone recognizes this people-friendly general. Whenever Sun Yi sees someone encountering difficulties, he will immediately lend a helping hand.
, and Sun Yi himself doesn't like to be special. He rarely uses his own private car. If there is no urgent matter, he will choose to walk more. In his opinion, this will not only not waste resources but also exercise.
Once, Sun Yi's two daughters went out for a trip and used their father's special car. After Sun Yi learned about it, he immediately called his daughter back and scolded her. and said that the special car was used to serve the people, not to satisfy himself.
When Sun Yi learned that a woman from his neighbor was going to have a child, Sun Yi immediately took her to the hospital in a special car and implemented her own principles.
Because of this, the local people praised Sun Yi and believed that he was the living Lei Feng of the contemporary era. If you want to talk about the good things Sun Yi had done, everyone can't finish it all in one day and one night. After Sun Yi retired, due to his experience during the Long March, he liked to go out and walk more when he had nothing to do, and his body became very healthy under daily exercise. During the period of
, Sun Yi continued to help the people around him. When he was in his 80s, he saw an old man staring at his tricycle up the slope with great difficulty.
So Sun Yi immediately went to help the old man push the car up. This move not only won unanimous support from the people, but also reflected Sun Yi's strong body.
In addition to being helpful, Sun Yi also has a wide range of interests and hobbies. He insists on going out to exercise every day. Although he will inevitably have some problems when he is old, his whole body is very good.
In addition, Sun Yi also loves calligraphy very much. He often created many excellent works in his later years and served as vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Research Association.
Sun Yi himself is very indifferent to fame and fortune, and he regards money very dullly. After retirement, in order to allow more ordinary people to learn knowledge, will give out his pension to Hope Project every month.
Not only that, they will also purchase a lot of publications at their own expense and send them to poor mountainous areas, so that children in the mountainous areas can also read books and newspapers. Such kind acts as
remained until 2003 when Sun Yi died at the age of 99. Longevity was inseparable from his training and a good mentality.
Many ordinary people once called him a living Lei Feng, but he said very modestly that he was far from far away. Sun Yi was such a low-key and enthusiastic older generation revolutionary.
Conclusion:
Sun Yi went from a general who charged into the battle to a principal who educated countless people, martial arts could participate in revolutionary struggles, literary ability to cultivate outstanding cadres, and contributed his own strength in every position.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he cared about the lives of the people and continued to contribute his value on another "battlefield". Sun Yi spent his life interpreting the belief of an older generation of revolutionaries.
