Thank you for your support!In December 1982, 67-year-old General Zheng Weishan was appointed commander of the Lanzhou Military Region and first secretary of the party committee. In the Lanzhou Military Region, General Zheng Weishan mainly carried out four important tasks. First of all, he focuses on cultivating young cadres, which is an important mission entrusted to him. He convened many meetings of the party committee of the military region, stressing the need to boldly select and promote those talented people who are politically firm, have good moral conduct, have outstanding ability, and are young and promising, despite their distinctive personalities, which has caused some controversy among the leaders and the masses.
General Zheng Weishan discovered that a deputy regimental staff officer possessed outstanding military and political qualities, and insisted on sending him to the post of director of the training department for one or two years before being transferred to the post of chief of staff. This comrade performed well afterwards and was eventually promoted to senior general of our army. According to the data, from the second half of 1983 to the first half of 1984, Zheng Weishan and other leading comrades selected 14 outstanding cadres to take up leading posts in armies and divisions. This undoubtedly confirms that under the leadership of General Zheng Weishan, the Lanzhou Military Region has made very remarkable achievements in training young cadres.
Secondly, he focused on greening the northwest, which is also one of the problems that General Zheng Weishan needs to solve. In accordance with his own way of fighting wars, he first gathered intelligence and then determined the course of action, and paid full attention to the role of talents. First of all, he instructed all units of the military region to conduct field investigations in conjunction with local ** to understand the local climate, soil, water quality, etc., and then formulate a plan based on the results of the investigation. Second, he ordered the identification of several priority areas for governance, and then the promotion of governance experience. When General Zheng Weishan led the Lanzhou Military Region to complete the task of greening the northwest, it focused on afforestation. In view of the poor soil conditions in the northwest region, scientific guidance from experts and scholars is needed.
Under the leadership of the People's Republic of China, the Lanzhou Military Region has been praised many times for successfully completing this strategic task. As the commander of the large military region, General Zheng Weishan had an in-depth understanding of the situation of the troops in the theater and put forward the strategic idea of "bayonet and guarding the Sichuan Road" for key defense. Relying on his many years of military experience, he convened leading groups to discuss and organize cadres at and above the division level to conduct campaign Xi and intensive training to jointly study the specific application of the strategic principle of active defense in the northwest region. Zhang Zhen, deputy chief of general staff, highly praised Zheng Weishan's work while inspecting the combat training work of the Lanzhou Military Region. At the end of 1983, the Lanzhou Military Region launched the work of rectifying the party.
As the first secretary of the party committee of the military region, General Zheng Weishan hoped to take this opportunity to thoroughly eliminate the problems left over from history and the long-standing and difficult problems that the masses strongly resented. After the start of the work of rectifying the party, the problems reported by the masses were mainly focused on the corrupt phenomena of specific people and things. There is a second-level leader who often uses public things to meet the preferences and needs of the leader and his family, and has received some praise. General Zheng Weishan's wife revealed that this comrade had sent some wood when General Zheng Weishan's children were getting married and preparing to make furniture. Upon learning of this, General Zheng Weishan was very angry and demanded the return of the timber.
In addition, the Lanzhou Military Region is located in the northwest and is rich in melons and fruits, and in previous years, it would always send some melons and fruits to the headquarters or other ** organizations, but the masses expressed dissatisfaction with this practice. When General Zheng Weishan learned of this situation, he also explicitly forbade it at the meeting. Theoretically speaking, Nie Shuai is Zheng Weishan's old chief, and it is reasonable for him to instruct the Military Region Administration Bureau to deal with this matter, but General Zheng Weishan is resolutely opposed. Subsequently, General Zheng Weishan used his salary to buy some things and personally delivered them to Nie Shuai's home. When he arrived at Nie Shuai's house, he met another leader, whose secretary was carrying two large bags of cordyceps. Recalling this incident, Zheng Weishan's guard said: "I feel shabby for the chief. βγ
However, after Nie Shuai saw General Zheng Weishan, he held his hand tightly and said, "Thank you, I know that you bought these things with your own money, and the courtesy is light and affectionate!."βγIn the years that followed, General Zheng Weishan always adhered to the Xi of thrift and thrift. Once, he went to the army to inspect the work, and the stipulation was four dishes and one soup, but out of respect for the old chief, one unit replaced the four dishes and one soup with **, and put several dishes together. Seeing this, General Zheng Weishan directly brushed his sleeves away and severely criticized this phenomenon. General Zheng Weishan is not only strict with himself, but also with his family and relatives. Once, when General Zheng Weishan's relatives learned that the military region was going to replace a batch of vehicles, they came to the door to ask General Zheng Weishan for help.
When General Zheng Weishan learned about it, he said: "This matter is not in my hands, you can go directly to them!."The relative said, "Can you give me a note?"Otherwise they don't know me. General Zheng Weishan refused: "It's not my business, I just have to fight!""It is precisely under the circumstance that General Zheng Weishan has set an example that the party building work of the entire Lanzhou Military Region has progressed smoothly and the results have been very remarkable. In 1987, General Zheng Weishan stepped down, but his qualities of honesty and honesty, peace and happiness were well recognized by the majority of officers and soldiers.
