At the 1955 ceremony of the People's Army, General Zhou Shidi was awarded the rank of general. Zhou Shidi is a native of Guangdong Lehui (now Qionghai, Hainan), joined the party as early as 1924, graduated from the first phase of the Whampoa Military Academy, and was a classmate of Chen Geng, ** and other founding generals of our army. Zhou Shidi, as a top student of Whampoa, was very valued by Director Zhou, and served as the deputy captain and captain of the ironclad team controlled by our party, and when the ironclad team of the Generalissimo's Mansion was reorganized into an independent regiment, Ye Ting was appointed as the regiment commander, and Zhou Shidi was appointed as the commander of the first battalion. On August 1, 1927, Zhou Shidi, then the commander of the 73rd Regiment (i.e., Ye Ting's Independent Regiment), led his troops to participate in the Nanchang Uprising and was appointed as the commander of the 25th Division, one of the high-level commanders of the Nanchang Uprising. At that time, a total of nine soldiers in Zhou Shidi's 25th Division were awarded the rank of marshal after the founding of the People's Republic of China, in addition to Zhou Shidi himself, there were two marshals, one general, three lieutenant generals, and two major generals. 
The two marshals are Mr. Chen and Lin Shuai. Mr. Chen served as the political instructor of the 73rd Regiment of the 25th Division at that time, and was a subordinate of Zhou Shidi. When the uprising was launched, Mr. Chen was unable to participate in the battle that day because of other tasks. When the Nanchang uprising troops went south, Mr. Chen caught up with the troops, and together with Mr. Zhu, he brought this team to Jinggangshan and retained the fire of the Nanchang uprising troops. Lin Shuai was the commander of the 7th Company of the 3rd Battalion of the 73rd Regiment of the 25th Division at that time, and at that time, he was just a little-known junior officer. However, after joining the revolutionary ranks, Lin Shuai sprung up in the Red Army by virtue of his outstanding military command ability, and achieved the position of commander of the Red Fourth Army and the commander of the Red First Army during the Agrarian Revolutionary War. It is worth mentioning that during the Nanchang Uprising, Nie Shuai led the uprising of the 25th Division with Zhou Shi in Mahuiling, and served as the party representative of the 11th Army after the uprising (the 25th Division was subordinate to the 11th Army, and the commander was Ye Ting). In the **Soviet period, Nie Shuai served as the political commissar of the Red First Army, Lin Shuai served as the commander of the regiment, and the two former chiefs and company commanders became the same level, history, it is so wonderful. 
Xu Guangda, one of the generals, served as the platoon commander of the 11th Company and 1st Platoon of the 3rd Battalion of the 75th Regiment of the 25th Division during the Nanchang Uprising, and was also a subordinate of Zhou Shidi. When the rebel army moved south, Xu Guangda was seriously wounded in the Battle of Sanheba and lost contact with the troops. After re-establishing contact with the organization, Xu Guangda was sent to the Xiangxi Soviet District and became a tiger general under Mr. He's account. During the War of Liberation, Xu Guangda achieved the position of commander of the Second Corps of Yiye, and together with Mr. Peng, he made great contributions to the liberation of the northwest by the people's army. When the title was conferred in 1955, Xu Guangda was awarded the rank of general, which was higher than his old chief Zhou Shidi. Among the founding lieutenant generals, there were three generals who were Zhou Shidi's subordinates during the Nanchang Uprising, they were Peng Mingzhi, Nie Heting, and Guo Huaruo. Peng Mingzhi served as the commander of the ** company of the 25th Division during the uprising, and when the Nanchang uprising troops moved south, Peng Mingzhi was wounded in the Battle of Sanheba and lost contact with the organization. After returning to the team in 1930, Peng Mingzhi served as the chief of staff of the division of the Red Army, the chief of staff of the regiment of the Eighth Route Army, the brigade commander of the New Fourth Army, the chief of staff of the corps of the four fields, deputy commander and other positions, belonging to the deputy corps-level cadres, the level is still quite high, in 1955, Peng Mingzhi was awarded the rank of lieutenant general. 
Nie Heting served as the platoon commander of the second battalion and the sixth company of the 25th Division of Zhou Shidi during the Nanchang Uprising, the regiment commander and division chief of staff during the Agrarian Revolutionary War, the chief of staff of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, and the deputy chief of staff of the Siye during the War of Liberation. In 1956, Nie Heting returned to the army and was awarded the rank of lieutenant general. Guo Huaruo joined the 25th Division before the Battle of Sanheba in the south of the Nanchang Uprising, and was appointed as the commander of the artillery company. During the revolutionary years, Guo Huaruo served as a tutor and chief of staff, principal of the artillery school, deputy commander of the Huaye Sixth Column, and political commissar of the Ninth Corps of the Sanye Army, and made great contributions to the development of the people's army's artillery. In 1955, Guo Huaruo was awarded the rank of lieutenant general. Among the founding major generals, there are also two subordinates who have served as Zhou Shidi, namely: Liao Yunzhou and Yuan Yelie. Liao Yunzhou served as a staff officer of the 75th Regiment of the 25th Division during the Nanchang Uprising, and after the Nanchang Uprising troops were frustrated, Liao Yunzhou, under the arrangement of the organization, lurked in the **, secretly engaged in underground work, and made outstanding contributions to the victory of the Chinese people's liberation cause on a special front. 
In the Huaihai Campaign, Liao Yunzhou led his troops to revolt on the battlefield, giving the reactionaries the final blow, and in 1955, Liao Yunzhou was awarded the rank of major general. Yuan Yelie served as the chief of staff of the 25th Regiment of the 72nd Division during the Nanchang Uprising, and his rank was still very high. Yuan Yelie was awarded a second-class eighty-one medal, a first-class independent freedom medal, and a first-class liberation medal, and his merits in the revolutionary years were still very high, but why was he only awarded the rank of major general?Let's take a look at General Yuan Yelie's qualifications, his highest position during the Red Army period was regiment commander, the highest position during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression was the deputy commander of the Bohai Naval Region, and the highest position during the War of Liberation was the commander and political commissar of the Navy of the East China Military Region.
