People of every era have different tasks. As people of this era, we should closely connect our development and destiny with the country and sublimate our own spirit. During the chaos of the last century, countless Chinese people enthusiastically joined the army, connecting their lives with the country, and ultimately defeated the arrogant Japanese invaders and reactionaries.
After the founding of New China, the country gradually improved people's livelihood and created a peaceful and stable living environment for the people. No matter when, we must not ignore the power of the military, because the military is the country's "defensive cover" and plays an important role in protecting and rejuvenating the country. Without the people's soldiers, China would not be so powerful today. Today we will talk about the story of General Cao Pengsheng.
Cao Pengsheng was born in Hebei in 1930. Heroes emerge in troubled times. Cao Pengsheng is also such a person. In 1930, society was experiencing great turmoil. The domestic Chiang Kai-shek government was killing compatriots without any reason, without any regard for the threat from foreign enemies. After the September 18th Incident, the old Chiang Kai-shek government "nurtured the enemy with bare hands" and the three northeastern provinces fell. Of course, the Japanese invaders were not only interested in the Northeast. Their ultimate goal was to invade the entire China.
Hebei is very close to the Northeast, so Hebei is almost the most chaotic buffer zone. The Anti-Japanese War started. As a child, Cao Pengsheng still had vivid memories of the Japanese invaders, and he wished to bring these demons to justice. After experiencing the war, he knew more about the value of peace and tranquility, so he dreamed of joining the army since he was a child.
In 1946, our party and the Kuomintang were in a period of peace. Cao Pensheng, who was only 16 years old, enthusiastically joined the ranks of our party and became a young soldier. Chiang Kai-shek's so-called Peaceful Coexistence Agreement is simply meaningless. In order to dominate China, Chiang Kai-shek started a civil war in and regardless of his face, and the war is about to break out again. Cao Pengsheng joined the Northeast Field Army and became an ordinary soldier. Everyone is weak and helpless in the face of the flames of war. Only when everyone contributes can the final victory be achieved.
The young Cao Pengsheng experienced the baptism of war and lost his immaturity, leaving only the dark strength and long-healed scars. In a life and death experience, Cao Pengsheng received the attention of his superiors and gave him a lot of resources to train him as a general.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Cao Pengsheng still stuck to his post and contributed his part to national security. In 1956, Cao Pengsheng was sent to the military academy to study. Three years later, Cao Pengsheng returned to the army after completing his studies and held many important positions one after another.
As time goes by, the once immature boy has grown into the political commissar of the Shandong Military Region, commanding many soldiers and deeply trusted by the country. After years of precipitation, Cao Pengsheng is still strict with himself, does not violate his original intention, and keeps his mission as a soldier in mind. Just when everyone thought that being the political commissar of the military region was the end of Cao Pengsheng's life, he was successively placed in important positions by the country, and he made brave progress step by step, serving as a member of the Standing Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and a member of the Central Committee.
When Cao Pengsheng was serving in the Lanzhou Military Region, the central government convened a military exercise in a seamless manner. The military exercise was not only a guarantee to maintain the military's combat effectiveness, but also a powerful counterattack against those with ulterior motives. It greatly publicized the combat effectiveness of our party's military to the outside world, and the national security was inviolable!
The "West 93" large-scale military exercise is a real-life exercise. In order to make this exercise effective and high-quality, the Central Military Commission appointed Cao Pengsheng as the general commander of this live-fire military exercise. Thanks to Cao Pengsheng's efforts, this military exercise achieved remarkable results, achieved the central government's goals, and also allowed people abroad to have a deeper understanding of our party's military. In 1994, Cao Pengsheng, who was only 64 years old, was promoted from lieutenant general to general and attracted the attention of countless people.
General Cao Pengsheng is 92 years old this year. He was born in a time of sorrow, knew that the country was in danger, closely linked his life to the country, and obeyed the party's command. He is a well-deserved "national general"!
