He once personally drew up a military rank for a revolutionary general. This revolutionary general's name is Liu Ziqi, and he made great achievements in the revolutionary war. Liu Ziqi came into contact with progressive ideas in his early years, joined the party organization, and showed excellent combat will after becoming a Red Army soldier. He performed well in the anti-encirclement campaign, so he was promoted to a grassroots cadre of the Red Army by the party organization, and later showed outstanding military talent in the process of establishing the southern Soviet region, and was promoted to division commander. During his tenure as division commander, he successfully commanded the Red Army in the assault on Changsha and personally organized the troops when faced with a transfer, demonstrating extraordinary leadership.
Although Liu Ziqi experienced three relegations during the War of Resistance and the War of Liberation, this was not because his military talent was inferior, but because he made a choice for the needs of the revolutionary war. Because of this, ** personally drew up a military rank for him in recognition of his revolutionary merits and outstanding performance. Under the heavy artillery fire of the enemy, Liu Ziqi successfully completed the transfer and returned triumphantly. Leaders such as ** and *** praised him again and again, which further demonstrated that his military talent in the party organization was widely recognized, and also made his operational command task in the Red Army even heavier. In addition, ** personally drew up a military rank for him.
During the Red Army, he achieved a series of outstanding achievements, but during the Anti-Japanese War, Liu Ziqi suffered a demotion. Under the circumstance that the Eighth Route Army needed to reduce the number of troops, Liu Ziqi, who originally served as a division-level cadre of the Red Army, only served as a regiment-level cadre in the Eighth Route Army. However, he was not depressed by the demotion of his position, but actively participated in the anti-Japanese war, commanding the troops to complete several outstanding battles. Although highly affirmed by the organization, Liu Ziqi's position in the Anti-Japanese War in the Central Plains has not been promoted, but he has achieved brilliant results one after another, and once dealt a heavy blow to the enemy.
At the same time, he also developed more flexible tactics of movement warfare, which caused headaches for the Japanese army. However, despite the continuous expansion of the army, Liu Ziqi's position has not been promoted. During the Liberation War, he was transferred to the Northeast to participate in the Northeast Liberation Campaign, but his position was not only not promoted, but declined. He successively participated in a series of battles such as the defense of Siping and the attack on Changchun, and served as the commander of the front-line troops in the decisive battles of Jinzhou and the capture of Shenyang, completely leaving his personal honor behind.
With the entry of the Northeast Field Army, he participated in a series of battles such as the Pingjin Campaign and the Battle of Crossing the River, but his outstanding performance did not bring him a promotion in his position, but was demoted again. It was not until after the victory of the Liberation War that he was transferred to Guangdong and served as the deputy commander of the Guangdong Military Region. As a senior cadre in the Red Army, Liu Ziqi only served as a deputy commander, which made him deeply feel the great sacrifices he made for the revolutionary war. **Let Marshal *** personally ask Liu Ziqi what kind of military rank he wants, but Liu Ziqi said that he would obey the organizational arrangement and did not attach importance to the honor of military rank. This led to *** instructing *** to draw up a military rank for Liu Ziqi.
However, the value of this revolutionary figure goes far beyond the symbolism of his rank. As a veteran of the Red Army, Liu Ziqi treated his military rank as nothing and devoted himself to the revolutionary cause. This spirit has not only won the appreciation of the party, but also infected many young cadres in the party organization, becoming a kind of spiritual wealth, inspiring future generations to continue to move forward.
