The tiger father has no dog son. This sentence applies to the inheritance of most families. General Yang Chengwu, the founding general of our country, and his children are typical of them. In addition to the three children being awarded the rank of general, the other three children also have good achievements.
Yang Chengwu is from Fujian. He was born in 1914. Although his family was poor, his parents still tried their best to raise him and grow up for him to study. Later, he was admitted to the Provincial No. 7 Middle School and learned of the lofty revolutionary concepts. After a profound awakening of revolutionary consciousness, he chose to abandon literature and follow the military. He joined the Communist Youth League at the age of 14 and officially joined the Red Army of Workers and Peasants at the age of 15.
Yang Chengwu participated in many anti-"encirclement and suppression" campaigns, and later followed the Party Central Committee Long March . During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, General Yang Chengwu also participated in many famous battles, such as the Battle of Huangtuling and the Battle of Hundred Regiments . It can be said that he has outstanding military achievements, especially the killing of the famous Japanese general Abe Guesthi , which boosted the morale of the national army.
1939 On November 3, 1939, Abe Guixiu sent the 1st infantry brigade of the 2nd Brigade to carry out a large-scale mobilization of our army's Jin-Cha-Hebei base area. Yang Chengwu led our army's first army to annihilate their main force in Yansuya . But he was not proud of this, because he clearly understood that the Japanese army would likely launch a large-scale revenge war, so he soon ordered our soldiers to hide and prepare for continuous combat.
As expected, on the 4th, Abe Guxiu personally led heavy troops to attack and attempted to attack and sweep our army wildly. Yang Chengwu responded with all his strength to attack the enemy and adopted a combat strategy of using a few troops to attack and retreat, confuse the enemy and lure the enemy into the dangerous terrain. After introducing the enemy into the dangerous terrain, he concentrated his main force to encircle and annihilate the enemy.
November 7 At around 3:00 pm on November 7, our army surrounded all the Japanese troops entering Huangtuling, causing chaos, and then the two sides launched a fierce battle. At around 16 o'clock, after our army commanders discovered some Japanese commanders, they immediately ordered a mortar bombing of the small temple on the east side of Huangtuling. Therefore, Abe Hikki, who was known as the "flower of famous generals" in Japan, was shot dead. This battle shocked the country and the world, and the whole army's anti-Japanese morale was greatly boosted.
In the War of Liberation and the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, General Yang Chengwu also made many contributions. In 1955, our army was awarded the rank of general. Unfortunately, during the special period, the veteran general was persecuted and was rehabilitated several years later.
It has to be mentioned that the family of the old general also made a lot of sacrifices for the country. At the age of 24, Yang Chengwu and Zhao Zhizhen became revolutionary partners. They had a total of 10 children. However, in the war, the two worked hard for the revolutionary cause. Their young children had to be fostered at the homes of relatives and friends for a long time. In addition, their living and medical conditions were not good at that time, so the six children born before 1949 died 3.
Although the other 7 children grew up safely, their father was wrongly imprisoned, and they were all more or less implicated.
Among them, the eldest daughter Yang Yisheng is the most tragic and fierce. She graduated from Central Renmin University and is a talented woman who loves literature. She used to be an editor in the Air Force Daily. During a special period, she chose to commit suicide because she could not endure torture and humiliation, which became an eternal pain in her parents' hearts.
However, the darkness passed and light would eventually come. After the old general was rehabilitated, their children's situation improved, and three of them later became generals.
The eldest son Yang Dongsheng, born in 1946, worked for the scientific research system of our army. In 1998, he was awarded the rank of major general.
The second son Yang Dongming, born in 1949, was awarded the rank of major general in 1994, and in 2007, he was promoted to the rank of lieutenant general.
The second daughter Yang Junsheng, born in 1941, was awarded the rank of major general in 1996.
The other three children of the veteran general also have their own achievements. The third son Yang Dongcheng chose to go to business. The third daughter Yang Dongrong once worked in the General Political Department of Beijing. The youngest daughter Yang Yang served as chief physician in the General Hospital of the Armed Police for a long time.
Yang Chengwu's three children achieved the glory of three generals, but the other children also have their own styles. As a father, this is something that is very worthy of pride. This also proves that the veteran general's successful education of his children. Even if the family has suffered a lot of harm, it cannot stop them from achieving excellent achievements in their lives.
In 2004, the old general who was 90 years old died at the age of 1994. The old general can be said to have seen the achievements of his children in person, which is a very gratifying thing.
