At 2:55 p.m. on October 1, 1949, the People's Republic of China was officially proclaimed. In the afternoon of the same day, 300,000 soldiers and civilians gathered in Beijing's Tiananmen Square, and the crowd was full of thunderous cheers. ** and other major leaders of the party and the state climbed the Tiananmen Tower to celebrate the National Day with the people. However, people are curious why Ren Bishi, one of the five secretaries, was unable to attendComrade Ren Bishi practiced "serving the people" all his life.
At the age of 18, he joined the "Chinese Socialist Youth League", in 1921, the Communist Party of China was secretly established, and the following year, at the age of 18, Ren Bishi actively participated in it. Just 5 years later, he became the first general secretary of the Communist Youth League with his outstanding work achievements and was elected as a member of the first committee. It is admirable that this seemingly thin young man has such a firm party spirit. After the death of Sun Yat-sen, the Nationalist Revolution quickly failed, and the Kuomintang led by Chiang Kai-shek quickly launched an offensive against the Communists. Ren Bi was injured many times, and the first time was because he was betrayed by a traitor when he was inspecting the Anhui region.
In September 1941, Ren Bishi went to Anhui for inspection as a special commissioner. He seriously criticized the mistakes of the Anhui party organization and actively contacted and participated in the meetings of the local delegations, but due to the betrayal of the traitors, he was unfortunately ** in the north of the city on September 15. In prison, he was tortured for half a year, including chili oil, tiger chairs, etc., and the enemy did not allow him to sleep all night. Ren Bishi was steadfast in the face of the torture of his enemies, and simply called himself an "ordinary businessman". After a long torture, he did not divulge any information, making the enemy doubt his identity.
Half a year later, he was released from prison due to lack of evidence, but he was physically and mentally exhausted and suffering from illness. Although the party organization arranged for him to recuperate, he was still worried, fearing that other revolutionary comrades would suffer from it, so he did not dare to stop and continued to run on the road of talks and mediation. A few months later, however, he was imprisoned again while working in Jiangsu, and this time the enemy did not hesitate to identify him as a Communist, hoping to get useful information from him. In prison, he was subjected to electric shocks and torture, leaving multiple scars on his body. Despite the difficulties, he persevered, but the road to revolution was still long – the Long March.
In 1934, due to the misjudgment of the leadership, the Red Army failed in its fifth "anti-encirclement and suppression" and was forced to begin a strategic shift. During the Long March, they not only faced the pursuit of the enemy, but also had to deal with the harsh environment. Food was so scarce in the Red Army that soldiers often had to forage on the road, gnaw on tree bark, and even chew on belts to feed themselves. In today's Long March Memorial Hall, there is still the half of the belt that Ren Bi chewed back then. After two prisons and the Long March, Ren Bi's health deteriorated dramatically. However, he never stopped working, marching with the large army during the day and staying up late at night to deal with government affairs.
During a night raid across the river, he accidentally fell into the water and lost consciousness, making people think that he was no longer alive, but surprisingly, he struggled to get up. After a long and arduous journey through mountains and rivers, he arrived in Yan'an with a 30-year-old look emaciated and dying. Unfortunately, after the victory of the Liberation War in 1949, the Red Army was stationed in Beijing, and he was able to temporarily recuperate. The 45-year-old Ren Bi was in the prime of life, but he suffered from diabetes and high blood pressure for a long time, coupled with years of old injuries that did not heal.
**And *** often told him that "the body is the capital of the revolution", and Ren Bishi always agreed with a smile, and then continued to devote himself to work. With the establishment of New China, Ren Bishi finally relaxed a little, just like the strings that had been tight for many years were suddenly liberated, but when the founding ceremony was about to be held, Ren Bishi fell again.
Since he joined the party organization at the age of 16, he has silently dedicated himself to the party for more than 30 yearsAs one of the five secretaries, Ren Bishi is naturally qualified to climb the Tiananmen Tower, which is the moment he has been looking forward to for 30 years. However, at that time, he was terminally ill and could not sustain the founding ceremony for several hours, and his family persuaded him not to attend it for safety. But how can Ren Bishi be willing?
So, for the sake of his health, he was forbidden to go out, and his daughter took the place to attend the founding ceremony. Ren Bishi was lying on the hospital bed, and the chairman's sonorous voice came over the radio: "The People's Republic of China was founded today!"He closed his eyes slightly, tears flowed, and his heart was full of joy. ** Comrade commented on Ren Bi: "He is the camel of our party and the camel ...... of the people of ChineseHe is the most outstanding member of our party and a role model for us. In the second year after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the most tenacious "camel" in the party fell forever.
However, we all know that the hero dies, but his faith lives forever.
