In the early development of the Party, it took a long and difficult time. Due to the cruel suppression of the Kuomintang, countless soldiers died on the road ahead. Even during the full-scale War of Resistance Against Japan, the Kuomintang was still making some tricks and only gave our army three divisions:
The three divisions had six brigades under their jurisdiction. At that time, they were all the main forces of our party. So do you know who were the brigade commanders of these six brigades? What are their military ranks in the end?
115 Division Two brigades: The 343rd and 344th Brigade

358 Brigade commander is Lu Dongsheng , born in Xiangtan, Hunan in 1908. He has a deep relationship with Chen Geng. When he was young, he went to herd cattle for rich families because of his poor family. This rich family is Chen Geng's family. The two had a good relationship. Chen Geng's departure from home and enlisted in the army had a great influence on him. In 1925, he also went to the 4th Division of the Hunan Army to serve in the army.
In the Northern Expedition, we met Chen Geng again. At that time, Chen Geng was already the battalion commander and arranged Lu Dongsheng to be his subordinate. Later, the Revolutionary Army was frustrated in Chaoshan, and Chen Geng was seriously injured. It was Lu Dongsheng who had been taking care of him and escorting him to Shanghai.
is also in Shanghai. After Chen Geng and his wife introduced him to Zhou Enlai and joined the party. Because Chen Geng was injured, Lu Dongsheng was arranged to follow He Long to open a revolutionary base in western Hunan and Hubei. Before the Long March, he served as the commander of the 4th Division of the Red 2nd Army. He was appointed as the commander of the 358th Brigade (not serving).
However, in March 1939, Lu Dongsheng was sent to the Soviet Union to study and returned in September 1945. Although he had been away for a long time, his status had not changed and his connection with the party was also very deep. As soon as he came back, he served as commander of the Songdong Military Region and commander of the Harbin garrison.
Unfortunately, he was shot to death by the rebels only three months after he came back. Otherwise, according to his qualifications as the Red Second Army, he would be at least an general . The brigade commander of
359 Brigade is Chen Bojun . He was born in Da County, Sichuan in 1910. He was admitted to Whampoa Military Academy Wuhan Branch in 1927. He joined the party in the same year and participated in the Autumn Harvest Uprising.

He participated in major battles such as Liaoshen, Pingjin, and Hengbao. He was awarded the rank of general in 1955.
129th Division Two brigades under the 385th brigade, 386th brigade,
385th brigade, Wang Hongkun , was born in 1909 in Macheng , Hubei, in 1929, joined the Red Army in 1929 and joined the party in the same year. Since then, he has served as deputy battalion commander of the 1st Battalion of the 28th Regiment of the 10th Division, commander of the 10th Division, and commander of the 10th Division. He was the commander of the Red Fourth Army before the Long March.
During the War of Resistance Against Japan, he cooperated with the 386th Brigade many times, which severely damaged the Japanese invaders. During the War of Liberation, he served as deputy commander of the 6th column of the Shanxi, Hebei, Shandong and Henan Military Region, deputy commander of the Hubei Military Region, etc., and participated in the advance of the Dabie Mountains, the Huaihai Battle, the Crossing River Battle, etc., and was awarded the rank of general in 1955.
386 Brigade commander is Chen Geng . I believe everyone is more familiar with this. In "Bright Sword", Li Yunlong is most afraid of. He was born in Xiangxiang , Hunan in 1903. At the age of 13, he ran to join the Revolutionary Army and then fought for four years.
However, after fighting for so many years, he still did not see hope for peace. Chen Geng knew that this was by no means a way to save the country, so he left the army and carried out an anti-imperialist patriotic movement with progressives. In 1922, he entered the self-study university advocated by Chairman Mao and found a way to save China. This year, Chen Geng also joined the party.
After being admitted to the Whampoa Military Academy in 1924, he once again joined the army and made many contributions. Later, when the Kuomintang was anti-communist, he firmly stood on the side of the Communist Party.
What Chen Geng is more legendary is that he saved Lao Chiang's life. In October 1925, the Northern Expedition Army was blocked when it marched into Huayang. Lao Chiang, as the commander-in-chief, personally went to the front line to supervise the war and hoped to inspire morale, but it had no effect at all.
When the army was about to be defeated, the people around Chiang Kai-shek ran almost the same, and only the company commander Chen Geng was following him all the time. Lao Jiang, a person who loves face, couldn't think of it at that time and was about to do something for him. Chen Geng tried his best to dissuade him. When the enemy was about to rush up, Lao Jiang was still in a daze. Chen Geng didn't say anything and ran away. The two of them finally escaped from danger.
So in 1933, Chen Geng was arrested in Shanghai and escaped. Later, Jiang Jiang also expressed his feelings: Chen Geng saved my life, but unfortunately he fought against me everywhere later.
1934 during the Long March, Chen Geng was the commander of the Red Army cadre regiment, and then served as the commander of the First Division of the Red Army. After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Chen Geng led the 386th Brigade to fight many beautiful battles, which made the Japanese invaders feel hated.
During the War of Liberation, Chen Geng led the 4th Column of the Shanxi-Hebei-Shandong-Henan Field Army led by Chen Geng was invincible and made great contributions. He was awarded the rank of general in 1955.
