Marshal He Long is not only good at strategizing and winning thousands of miles, but also a master of the Moonlight. Many of the lifelong affairs of many comrades around me were solved under He Long's clever arrangement. This includes the only female general in the founding country, Major General Li Zhen, and the couple of Gan Siqi, .
Gan Siqi and Li Zhen and his wife
Li Zhen was born in the old revolutionary base Liuyang , participated in the Autumn Harvest Uprising , and was the Minister of the Organization Department of the Sixth Army of the Red Second Front Army at that time. One day on the eve of the Long March 2, He Long, commander-in-chief of the Red Second Front Army, brought her in front of her. Li Zhen was combed with short hair and was not tall, giving people the feeling of being smart and capable. Mr. He said to her: " Central Red Army Long March has been walking for a long time, and we are going to start the Long March. The Long March is far and very hard. Let me introduce you to a companion. His name is Gan Siqi, a political commissar of the 18th Red Division. He is a student who stayed in the Soviet Union. He has a high education and is also very upright."
She refused: "There are so many people on the Long March, so what kind of companion should I find! He has a high education, but I am not educated, and I can't even recognize many big words. Besides, it's the Long March that it's a war now, and the bullets don't have eyes. If I'm injured, he will worry; if he is injured, I will also worry. I think it's better to talk about it later in the Long March."
He Long didn't say anything else, and went to find Gan Siqi again. Mr. He said: "H Red Sixth Army has a female soldier Li Zhen. She is brave in combat and knows how to cook. There are not many female comrades in the Red Second Front Army, so don't miss this opportunity. You must seize the 'fighter' when you are in love and get married."
He Long in the Long March
From that day on, Li Zhen learned that there was a male scholar named Gan Siqi in the Second Red Army, and Gan Siqi had already had a good impression of Li Zhen. He met Li Zhen while going to the Red Army School to inspect work. Li Zhen, as the director of the school's political department, was directing students to sing on the playground. Her dignified face, strong posture and heroic temperament deeply attracted Gan Siqi. At that time, Gan Siqi had no more thoughts except for having a good impression of Li Zhen. When she returned to her residence, Gan Siqi quietly wrote down in her diary: "Red School, Li Zhen..."
But now Mr. He personally mentioned the marriage matter to him and officially introduced Li Zhen to him, and he must take it seriously.
Soon, Gan Siqi was transferred to the Sixth Army and served as the director of the Political Department and acting political commissar. In this way, working with the Organization Minister Li Zhen, there was an opportunity to contact each other, so their understanding quickly deepened. Gan Siqi often directly asked Li Zhen to have a long talk, talk about work and ideals. Later, he naturally talked about speculation and then talked about love. During this period, Li Zhen felt deeply that although Gan Siqi was the leader, she was very approachable and had a lot of help to her work. She was very moved by this and specially made a pair of cloth shoes and gave them to him quietly.
After further work and mutual understanding, the relationship between the two people became deeper and deeper, and the two passionate hearts were getting closer and closer.
Finally, they happily accepted the arrangement of President He. When the Long March was about to begin, President He took the marriage and got married. From then on, they formed a revolutionary companion with deep feelings and mutual respect and love.
He Long once happily called them "two model cadres and a revolutionary couple."
In 1955, Li Zhen, who was then the former Minister of the Political Department of the Air Defense Force, was awarded the rank of major general and became the only female general among the founding generals. Her husband Gan Siqi was awarded the rank of general. In 1959, Li Zhen was among the 10th anniversary of the National Day, and attracted much attention.
