Founding General Rank: The subtle difference between the military rank and the administrative rank.
In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, in 1955, the rank of general was awarded for the first time, becoming the second-order military rank after marshal. The ten founding generals, although they are all generals, show subtle differences in military and administrative levels.
The special status of the ten great generals.
The ten founding generals are Su Yu, Xu Haidong, Huang Kecheng, Chen Geng, Tan Zheng, Xiao Jinguang, Zhang Yunyi, Wang Shusheng, and Xu Guangda. At that time, these ten generals were tied for the highest rank in military ranks, but in reality, there were subtle differences in their ranks.
Military Rank: The difference between the commissioner and regimental ranks.
At the military level, the ten founding generals were divided into two different ranks: the level of a member of the Military Commission and the level of a regular corps. Among them, Su Yu, Xu Haidong, Huang Kecheng, Chen Geng, Tan Zheng, Xiao Jinguang, Zhang Yunyi, **, etc. served at the level of members of the Military Commission, while Wang Shusheng and Xu Guangda were at the level of the regular corps.
In March 1952, the evaluation of military ranks began, and the cadres who held the posts of members of the Central Military Commission and the senior deputy commanders and deputy political commissars of the large military regions were rated as members of the Central Military Commission. These six assessed generals held important positions, and Huang Kecheng was nominated by the chairman in January 1954 to become a member of the Military Commission. It is worth mentioning that although Xu Guangda was rated as a general, due to his humility and contribution, he applied for a reduction in military rank, and the final administrative level also changed.
Administrative level: Exceptions to the fourth rank and the treatment of marshals.
At the administrative level, the ten founding generals correspond to the fourth level of administration. However, the reality shows that the 10 generals are divided into three administrative levels.
Eight generals, including Su Yu, Xu Haidong, Huang Kecheng, Chen Geng, Tan Zheng, Xiao Jinguang, and Wang Shusheng, enjoy the fourth-level administrative treatment. However, Zhang Yunyi was promoted to the rank of administrative**, or marshal, because of his seniority and outstanding contributions. Xu Guangda, on the other hand, with his humble attitude, finally adjusted the administrative level from level 4 to level 5 after several applications.
The story behind the founding generals.
Behind these subtle differences in rank are the unique contributions and special historical background of each general. Zhang Yunyi, as the main leader who has experienced many historical moments such as the Alliance, the Patriotic War, the ** Movement, and the Huanghuagang Uprising, enjoys the treatment of marshal. Xu Guangda's humble attitude and insistence on applying for a downgrade show his great contribution to the country and the people.
Epilogue. The ten founding generals, despite being the same generals, presented subtle differences in military and administrative ranks. Behind these ranks is the unique contribution and historical background of each general. Their stories are rich and colorful, and they have written a strong and colorful stroke for the construction and development of New China. In these differences, we see the peculiarities of the founding generals and their irreplaceable place in the history of the country.
The article highlights the subtle differences between the military and administrative levels of the top ten founding generals of New China, and highlights the unique contributions and historical background of each general. This made me feel that the relationship between these founding heroes was not simply an equal relationship, but the result of differences in specific contributions and historical experiences.
First of all, from the point of view of the difference in the ranks of the army, the article mentions the division of the level of the member of the Military Commission and the level of the regular corps. This nuanced hierarchy gave me a deeper understanding of the selection and evaluation system for leadership at the time. The six generals mentioned in the article at the level of members of the Central Military Commission are not only condescending in their actual posts, but the fact that the chairman personally nominated them highlights their key role in the military. Comparatively speaking, although Wang Shusheng and Xu Guangda are also generals, their ranks are slightly lower, reflecting some differences in their leadership hierarchy.
Secondly, the differentiation of administrative levels has given me a new understanding of the status of the founding generals. Although the ten generals are all generals in military ranks, the difference in administrative ranks has led to different treatments. Zhang Yunyi, mentioned in the article, enjoyed the rank of marshal for his outstanding contributions, and Xu Guangda made adjustments in the administrative hierarchy with his humble attitude. This shows that in the early days of New China, individual generals not only had different responsibilities and division of labor in the army, but also in the political and administrative systems, and this multi-level division of labor and recognition system made the entire national system more flexible and efficient.
Finally, the article highlights the unique stories and special contributions behind each of the founding generals. Zhang Yunyi's rich experience of participating in historical events, Xu Guangda's humility and insistence on applying for a downgrade make these historical figures more fleshed out and vivid. It also reminds us that when evaluating historical figures, we should not only look at the superficial honors and titles, but also understand their individual contributions and values.
Overall, this article gave me a deeper understanding of the subtle differences between the top 10 founding generals, and the historical reasons behind these differences. Each general has his own unique characteristics, and this is part of the rich and colorful history of New China.
