Many people are familiar with the founding lieutenant general Zhou Xihan who chose to flee and join the army on his wedding night, but what is less known is that there is also a major general who was robbed of his bride by a landlord after his new marriage, and he also chose to join the army in anger.
He is Li Wenqing, born in poverty, in a landless farming family in Songzi City, Hubei. At the age of 20, he married his cousin at the behest of his father, expecting to live happily ever after, but was in agony because the landlord's son had taken over his wife. Young and vigorous, he wanted to take revenge, but was persuaded by his uncle.
In 1930, Li Wenqing joined the Red Army and became one of them, brave and fearless, and made many meritorious contributions on the battlefield. After the Long March, he received a Red Army university education, became the captain of the Kang University after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, and joined the Eighth Route Army, becoming the regimental chief of staff with only 16 regiments, which is evident in his excellence.
However, after he was promoted to the commander of the 715th Regiment, he caused a bad incident due to a seizure of war booty. His favorite pistol was eventually given to someone by his superiors, and in anger, he got into an argument with the political commissar, and even chased the political commissar to ask for an explanation. After the incident, he was demoted to battalion commander, but he also gradually became mature and no longer impulsive.
During the War of Liberation, he held important positions, and although he should have been awarded the rank of lieutenant general, he was eventually awarded only the rank of major general, but he did not care about it. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he once returned to his hometown, which shocked the villagers, and even scared himself to suicide by Li Xuewu, the landlord who once occupied his wife.
Li Wenqing did not seek revenge, and even generously helped his wife Zhou Yimei after learning that her life was difficult. This shows the true tolerance and maturity of his heart. In 1999, Li Wenqing died of illness at the age of 89.
Li Wenqing's thrilling life demonstrated his revolutionary responsibility and fearless courage, and became a model admired by a generation.
The story of Li Wenqing, a Red Army general, is a true and touching legend. His life has endured countless hardships and challenges, demonstrating his tenacity and indomitable spirit in the course of the revolution.
First of all, Li Wenqing's birth background and family environment are not superior. Coming from a poor peasant family, he struggled to live in a landless environment, and even faced the painful experience of a landlord seizing his wife. This experience shaped his sensitivity to injustice and oppression, and cultivated his courage to challenge injustice.
Second, Li Wenqing chose to join the Red Army and become a soldier, demonstrating his loyalty and love for the country and the just cause. On the battlefield, his heroic performance and many meritorious deeds demonstrated his quality of not being afraid of hardships and dangers. However, even in a high position, he has not forgotten his original intention and has always adhered to his beliefs and values.
What is particularly admirable is that when faced with the landlord's family who once robbed his wife and caused a difficult situation, Li Wenqing chose tolerance and kindness. He did not seek revenge, and even showed his tolerance and noble qualities by giving generously when he learned that his wife was having a difficult life. This kind of open-mindedness and generosity is admirable, and it is also worthy of our Xi and reference.
The story of Li Wenqing is not only a legend of an individual, but also a microcosm of China's revolutionary history. He represents countless heroes who have worked tirelessly for the interests of the country and the nation. His life was full of hardships and twists and turns, but he always cherished loyalty and love for the country and the people. His story inspires us and teaches us the values of courage to pursue justice, courage to face difficulties, and tolerance for others. Li Wenqing's spiritual strength is always worth remembering and inheriting.
