If it is said that in China's modern history, who can be called the real god of war, perhaps many people will have different opinions, but there is one person who can't get around the candidate, he is the marshal who was praised by *** personally wrote poems and praised "who dares to cross the sword immediately, only I am General Peng". 
Mr. Peng joined the glorious Communist Party of China as early as 1928, and together with Huang Gongluo, Teng Daiyuan and others, he launched and led the Pingjiang Uprising, and also formed the Fifth Army of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army. Since then, in his long revolutionary career, Mr. Peng has commanded countless battles of all sizes, including the "Anti-Encirclement and Suppression" War, the Long March, the War of Resistance Against Japan, the War of Liberation, and the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea after the founding of the People's Republic of China. However, in the military career of the marshal, there have also been dangers and difficulties, as the so-called "sword edge from sharpening", perhaps it is through many difficulties and obstacles, after many tests and tribulations, before finally refining into steel, so that the marshal can continue to grow and progress in the war, and finally step by step to the military command realm of the commander of the three armies, the soldiers pointed by, and the invincible opponent. 
On May 21, 1927, Xu Kexiang, a reactionary officer of the Kuomintang, launched the "Ma-Ri Incident" in Changsha to exterminate the Communists, smashed a large number of progressive organizations and revolutionary groups such as the "Hunan Federation of Trade Unions", the "Peasant Training Center" and the "Peasant Association", and brutally murdered more than 100 Communist Party members, Kuomintang leftists and patriotic and progressive peasants, causing the revolutionary situation in Hunan to take a sharp turn for the worse. Under the influence of this event, under the shadow of the White Terror. In March of the following year, Pingjiang County, Hunan Province, launched a massive "March Storm" incident, and more than 200,000 peasants in Pingjiang County rushed to the county seat to fight to the death against the enemy, taking advantage of the relatively weak strength of the enemy in the county. The "March Storm" directly led to the Pingjiang Uprising. 
After the "March Attack on the City" incident, the Kuomintang Army's Fifth Division in Hunan was sent to Pingjiang in June to suppress and "extinguish the fire", however, to the enemy's surprise, the commander of the first regiment of the division had secretly joined the Communist Party of China. It is conceivable that this operation of the Kuomintang army will be a complete failure. On July 22, Teng Daiyuan, then secretary of the Hunan-Hubei-Jiangxi Special Committee, and Huang Gonglue led and launched the Pingjiang Uprising, firing the first shot of the marshal's revolutionary road. 
According to Li Xingshi, deputy director of the management office of the Pingjiang Uprising Memorial Hall, "In just one and a half hours, more than 2,000 reactionary military and police officers were disarmed, more than 200 reactionary elements such as county magistrate Liu Zuozhu were captured alive, and more than 1,000 Communist Party members and revolutionaries were rescued from prison." Then, on July 24, the Fifth Army of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army and the Pingjiang County Workers' and Peasants' and Soldiers' Soviets** were announced. The commander of the Red Fifth Army is Marshal ***, while Teng Daiyuan is the representative of the party army, and Deng Ping is the chief of staff. In November of the same year, Teng Daiyuan and others led the Red Fifth Army to Jinggangshan to join the Red Fourth Army led by ***, opening a new chapter in the Chinese revolution. 
The Pingjiang Uprising is of great historical significance and value to both the Communist Party of China and the Communist Party of China itself, and this uprising was an armed insurrection launched by the Communists at a critical moment when the Chinese Revolution suffered a serious setback, at a low moment during the Great Revolution, and at a dangerous moment of the White Terror. From the beginning of the Pingjiang Uprising, he jumped from an old officer of a local warlord to the leader of the revolutionary armed forces under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, embarked on the road of revolution, and began his legendary and glorious military career. After the Pingjiang Uprising, on July 29, he led his troops to withdraw from Pingjiang County and transferred to Xiushui, Tonggu and other places in Jiangxi, and because of the success of the uprising, it also attracted the attention of the Kuomintang, and during this time it was also surrounded and suppressed by the Kuomintang army. 
In August, the Kuomintang army sent as many as 10 divisions to encircle, pursue, and intercept the Red Fifth Army. In order to boost morale, ** often gave intensive lectures and encouragement to the soldiers. During that difficult period, he often said: "We raised the flag to revolt for the sake of the revolution." To make a revolution, we must not be afraid of bloodshed and sacrifice. Even if I am alone, I will hold the red flag and climb the mountains and mountains to the end!"However, it was during this period that ** was in danger for the first time in his life in the course of a speech, and this accident almost led to the sacrifice of Marshal ***, and the consequences were unimaginable. 
**After the success of the Pingjiang Uprising, he was assassinated one day in August, in the place of Baisha, **Marshal gathered the team to stand in front of him as usual to speak, and when he was talking about the ideals of the revolution and the bright future, a figure suddenly came out from below, and before the marshal had time to react, he quickly snatched his gun, opened the insurance, and was ready to shoot at Mr. Peng. All this happened so quickly that people didn't have time to react, and in the face of such an emergency, everyone's mind seemed to freeze for a while, and it was impossible to believe the scene in front of them. At this moment of lightning, Li Jukui, who was standing at the front of the team, rushed out with lightning speed, and pounced on it with a dive, directly pressing the person who grabbed Mr. Peng's gun to the ground, so that he could not move. 
However, after all, shooting was only a matter of a moment, this frenzied soldier who snatched the gun in the confrontation with Li Jukui still "bang" the bullet **, fortunately, due to Li Jukui's interference and obstruction, the bullet did not hit Mr. Peng, but hit under the mound of dirt where he was standing. It is also thanks to Mr. Peng that in order to make the soldiers hear, he deliberately stood on the high place of the mound of soil and avoided this catastrophe, otherwise Mr. Peng would not know what kind of losses would be caused to the Chinese revolution once he was ill. It is also impossible to imagine that after the founding of New China, the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea without the command of Marshal *** could have achieved the same glory and victory. 
Some people may disdain it, thinking that the power of individuals is not enough to have much impact on history, but for real historical figures and historical events, what a person does at a critical moment often changes the direction of history, although history is not transferred by the will of individuals, but it is undeniable that those who are not born in the world are also rewriting history. Just after Li Jukui controlled the traitor of **, Gao Yunqiao, the captain of the third brigade, also rushed up quickly, and without the slightest hesitation, he raised his gun and aimed it at this person, and one shot directly ended his life. 
Although the whole process is short, it is also very dangerous, everyone is frightened, and the soldiers are in a mess, but the marshal is not afraid of danger, and the face of Mount Tai does not change, and he has been standing on the stage without even moving, looking at all this calmly and contemptuously, as if the danger is someone else's, and has nothing to do with him. Soon, the soldiers figured out who this **** was, it turned out that this **** person was not an ordinary soldier, he turned out to be Lei Zhenhui, the former commander of the first regiment.
After the success of the Pingjiang Uprising, the revolutionary situation remained grim. The army also carried out a reorganization at this time, as mentioned earlier, ** was the commander of the first regiment of the independent fifth division of the Kuomintang Hunan Army before the uprising, which was originally the Kuomintang team, and his uprising team was also dominated by the first regiment. After the success of the uprising, the three battalions under the jurisdiction of the ** regiment began to expand, and its first regiment.
The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Battalions were thus expanded into the 13th Division of the Red Army.
The 1st, 4th, and 7th regiments also include several important companies such as a special service company, a heavy machine gun company, and a mortar company, and the commander of the division is naturally *** himself.
It stands to reason that the expansion of the ranks, the promotion of the old officers and the change of battalion commanders to regimental commanders, should also make a more solid contribution to the revolution, but the truth is not that simple. The composition of this old army was too complicated, almost no one refused to come, and the supply of troops was very chaotic, and it was full of bandits, bandits, and soldiers, which made the purely revolutionary ranks filthy. After the expansion of the team, Lei Zhenhui was very valued by Mr. Peng, and he served as the commander of the first regiment of the 13th Red Division, which was an extremely critical position. Friends who know a little about military history may know that the troops generally numbered as a regiment or a battalion are often the main force, and they are important teams that are deeply honored by the commander and can open up the situation in difficult times.
There is such a description in the classic anti-Japanese drama "Bright Sword", which everyone is very familiar with, whether it is the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army led by Li Yunlong, or the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army commanded by Chu Yunfei, their first battalion is the main force with the best equipment, the largest number of people, and can fight evil battles. Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment was originally a reinforced regiment, with nearly 5,000 people in the whole regiment, but there were more than 2,000 people in one battalion, which was almost as strong as the strength of Li Yunlong's two regiments before the expansion. Moreover, this battalion dared to fight against the Imperial Allied Army, which was several times its size, and its combat effectiveness was undoubtedly very strong.
After Lei Zhenhui became the head of a regiment, if he could control his temperament and follow Mr. Peng to continue the revolution in a down-to-earth manner, if he had not died in the war, he would at least be a founding lieutenant general. You must know that Li Jukui, who saved Mr. Peng, is the founding general, and Li Jukui at this time is not even the head of the regiment. In addition to the first regiment, the commander of the fourth regiment was Chen Pengfei, who couldn't stand the hardships of the troops and wanted to go home. For such a weak-willed person, Mr. Peng didn't even keep him at all, and went with him. The Seventh Regiment is the regiment where General Li Jukui belongs, and the regiment commander is Huang Chunyi, who came from the senior class of the Whampoa Military Academy, but unfortunately died in the war not long after, and he was only 23 years old at the time, which is extremely regrettable.
Due to the encirclement and interception of the Kuomintang army, the losses of the troops were very large, the sacrifices of the soldiers were also relatively serious, and the environment in the early stage of the revolution was very harsh, many weak-willed people either left the revolutionary ranks or simply defected to the enemy. At this time, in order to adapt to the situation, the regiment under its jurisdiction was reorganized into five brigades, and Lei Zhenhui changed from a regiment commander to the captain of the fourth team, which made Lei Zhenhui, who was already increasingly dissatisfied with the revolution, even more annoyed. He felt that his position had been taken across, and he did not think about what the revolution was for, and only saw the size and power of his official position.
How can such a person do a good job in the revolution?Lei Zhenhui, who was indignant and dissatisfied, found Li Yuhua, the captain of the First Brigade who was also dissatisfied and had a weak revolutionary will, and the two were in a nest of snakes and rats, and secretly colluded with each other, wanting to lead their troops to the enemy and betray the revolution. As soon as they had time, the two quietly got together and planned intrigues. In the end, Li Yuhua took the lead, he faked the military order of ***, gathered the team to take away his subordinates on the grounds of fighting the militia in the mountains, and defected to the enemy, but in the end only a dozen of his henchmen followed him, and most of the soldiers were still firmly on the side of the revolution.
Because Li Yuhua and Lei Zhenhui often colluded together during that time, after Li Yuhua's deeds were revealed, ** immediately controlled Lei Zhenhui, and got his gun down, locked him up, and made him reflect deeply. However, Lei Zhenhui didn't know how to reflect at all, he held a grudge against Mr. Peng and tried to plot revenge. Therefore, in the process of gathering the soldiers to speak, Lei Zhenhui took a risk, snatched the *** gun and shot at it. He thought that as long as he assassinated *** and caused disorder in the revolutionary ranks, he might be able to take advantage of the chaos to escape.
However, his plot was destined to fail, and just as he snatched the gun, General Li Jukui rushed out and knocked him down, finally saving the day. After knowing that after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the marshal would often mention this early dangerous experience to others, and said that if it were not for Li Jukui's courage and agility, he might have been gone long ago, and there would be the future marshal of the republic. Every time Li Jukui heard about it, he just smiled indifferently, he never mentioned it himself, and he was never arrogant. ** Marshal Rong Ma spent most of his life in war, and encountered more than once or twice in danger in his life, but no matter what kind of danger did not make him succumb, but strengthened his revolutionary will and conviction.
Mr. Peng never wavered in his determination to revolution, and he often said: "To do revolution, you can't be half-hearted and can't retreat." It's all the way to the end!In 1940, under the command of the leaders of the Eighth Route Army, such as *** and Zuo Quan, our heroic officers and men of the Eighth Route Army launched a large-scale and long-lasting campaign in North China, which was the battle of the Hundred Regiments that has always been talked about. In this battle, our Eighth Route Army dispatched as many as 105 regiments, which dealt a heavy blow to the arrogance of the Japanese puppet army, and also cooperated with the frontal battlefield of the Kuomintang behind enemy lines, which greatly inspired the enthusiasm and confidence of the whole people in the War of Resistance. After this battle, the Japanese army re-examined the anti-Japanese strength of the Eighth Route Army, and began to frantically sweep and encircle our Eighth Route Army, and even threatened the safety of the Eighth Route Army headquarters for a time. During this time, the pressure on the Eighth Route Army was relatively great, and ** also felt a trace of unusualness in the Japanese army. ** In the second half of 1941, it was also mentioned several times that the Japanese army was secretly mobilizing troops, and there may be a larger conspiracy, reminding everyone to be prepared for the frantic counterattack of the Japanese army.
During this time, both sides of the war were mobilizing troops to try to deal a heavy blow to each other. In April 1941, Okamura was awarded the rank of general and appointed by the emperor as commander-in-chief of the North China Front of the Japanese invasion of China. Okamura Ninji was a fierce general familiar to almost every Chinese, and he also fought against the famous Kuomintang general Xue Yue in the Battle of Changsha, making him a very cunning opponent. In addition, Okamura Ninji was promoted from the position of commander of brigades and divisions, and he has very rich combat experience, and he is a military talent that must not be taken lightly.
Okamura Ningji's main task in North China is to eliminate the Eighth Route Army here as much as possible, he himself has been in China for many years, is a Chinese expert who is proficient in Chinese geography and culture, in order to achieve its strategic goals, Okamura Ningji as soon as he arrived in office to read the information about the relevant leaders of the Eighth Route Army, especially the detailed information. Okamura Ninji is not a light enemy, he attaches importance to every opponent, after his careful study, he believes that *** is an experienced expert in mountain warfare, especially good at mountain warfare, and the command tactics are flexible and changeable. To this end, he also went to Taiyuan and Changzhi in Shanxi Province many times to conduct field investigations, and conspired with the commander of the 1st Army, Iwamatsu Yoshio, to formulate five battle plans.
However, these five-point battle plans were overturned by Okamura Ningji one after another, and the fifth battle plan was extremely bold, planning to blitz Yan'an with 200,000 Japanese troops, in a vain attempt to directly eliminate the ** organ. Okamura thought that this plan was unrealistic and too difficult to operate, not to mention the rugged roads in the mountains of Shaanxi, which were not conducive to marching, so he rejected the plan. However, Okamura believed that the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army and the Eighth Route Army under its command were an absolute threat to the Japanese army, and in order to achieve his strategic objectives after arriving in North China, he had to strike at the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army and thus weaken the main force of the Eighth Route Army. To this end, Okamura Ninji formulated a top-secret plan to assassinate ***, which is also the little-known "Operation Plan C".
Okamura Ninji was frenzied and attempted to directly eliminate the No. 2 commander and actual commander of the Eighth Route Army in one battle by means of a "decapitation battle", and then take advantage of the chaos to attack the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army and achieve its strategic goal. This "Operation Plan C" was extremely secretive and very few people knew about it, and it was disclosed in an internal newspaper printed in Japan in 1945. There is only one goal of the plan, to enable the Japanese army lurking in the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army in Taihang Mountain to set up the "Mashiko Advance Team", and disguise itself as the Eighth Route Army, looking for the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, and at the same time send a large number of wings, and the Japanese 41st Division, a total of more than 30,000 people to encircle and suppress the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, and assassinate the Japanese Lieutenant General Iwamatsu Yoshio who directly executed and commanded the plan at any cost.
In order to cooperate with the plan, since April 10, Okamura Ninji has spread false news and attacked the West, confusing the judgment of the Eighth Route Army. first swept the eastern part of Hebei, and then swept the southern part of the country. At this time, Mr. Peng also felt unusual, the enemy's movements began to be confusing, and the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army was threatened. Due to the outward movement of the main force, there were almost no troops at the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army at this time, and the safety of Mr. Peng was very threatened, although there was a guard battalion, but this battalion did not have the strength of a battalion at all, and many soldiers of the guard battalion were also responsible for logistics and security work.
In this case, Mr. Zhu and Mr. Zhu were very worried about the safety of the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, and called many times to hope that they would return to Yan'an to avoid the enemy's edge, but they refused Yan'an's arrangement and insisted on staying in Taihang Mountain to lead the Eighth Route Army to fight against the Japanese army. Iwamatsu Yoshio, who carried out the "Plan C", selected soldiers from two wings of the 36th Division of the Japanese Army and formed two assassination squads, which were called the "Mashiko Advance Team", because one of the captains was Mashiko Shigeo, and the other advance team was led by Okawa Momoyoshi, with about 100 people in each team.
There is also a more interesting episode about the "Mashiko Advance Team", the two squads were not called this at first, but "Advance Killing Squad", but Okamura Ninji thought the name was too bloody and ugly, so he renamed the two teams after the captain of one of the squads. In the course of carrying out the tasks of the advance team, in addition to collecting intelligence and assassinating them, they would also secretly arrest some young students and young women, coerce and lure, and bribe them with heavy money, so that these people would work for them, train a group of spies, and break into the interior of our Eighth Route Army. It was also in this process that ** encountered a rare danger.
In the difficult days of the Japanese army's encirclement and suppression, as the second leader of the Eighth Route Army and the actual commander of the battlefield, Xiao Wang, a guard of Mr. Peng, was suddenly found to have been hit in the temple and died one day. The mysterious death of the guard guarding Mr. Peng was a great event, and the cadres of the security department were very nervous, thinking that the spies had infiltrated. But the subsequent reconnaissance found that the guard Xiao Wang shot himself himself, which is incredible. After repeated tracking by the investigation department, clues were finally found, and it turned out that the initiator was Xiao Wang's lover villager Xiaomei. Xiaomei was originally a villager in a rural area in Shanxi, but after the Japanese army swept up, she was favored by the special high school, bought and trained with a lot of money, and became a spy.
In order to cooperate with Okamura Ningji's "Battle Plan C", Xiaomei was ordered by the Japanese army to use any method to approach Mr. Peng's guards, and Xiao Wang was confused by Xiaomei in such a conspiracy and fell for this vicious "beauty plan". After succeeding, Xiaomei forced the guard Xiao Wang to find an opportunity to kill *** As Mr. Peng's guard, if Xiao Wang has evil thoughts, then Mr. Peng is likely to be shot by Xiao Wang without defense, so that "the relatives are painful and the enemies are fast", so that Okamura Ningji's conspiracy succeeded. Fortunately, Xiao Wang finally kept the bottom line, he was deeply impressed by Mr. Peng's personality charm, and would rather shoot himself than attack ***. This cannot but be said to be another luck for Mr. Peng and the luck of the Chinese revolution. After finding out the truth, the security department immediately arrested and shot Xiaomei, an ignorant and extremely stupid woman.
However, no matter how critical the situation is and how bleak the future is, Mr. Peng has never given up his efforts, always adhered to the belief that the revolution will win, and finally became the founding father of the republic, and made great contributions to the establishment of New China.
