Li Desheng was asked by ***: Read more books
Picture丨Li Desheng's foreword*** had a profound impact on Li Desheng, especially in the second half of his revolutionary career. Li Desheng is full of admiration for ***, and he once sighed: "I have learned a lot from ***, especially the belief in serving the people." ”
In October 1968, Li Desheng was leading the working group to inspect various parts of Anhui when he suddenly received a letter from Beijing, informing him to attend the enlarged 12th Plenary Session of the Eighth Central Committee as an observer.
He arrived in Beijing on October 11 to attend a meeting of the party's highest levels. The meeting was presided over by *** and lasted more than half a month, and Li Desheng attended the meeting as the head of the province.
At the opening ceremony, when the group list was announced, he was interrupted and asked who was Li Desheng. **Introduce Li Desheng as the commander of the 12th Army,** and immediately want to see him.
1.Li Desheng's small episode at the 12th Plenary Session of the 8th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China made a major change in the trajectory of his life. He gradually became a member of the high-level meeting of the Communist Party of China, and had direct contact with leading comrades.
2.In April 1969, Li Desheng participated in the Ninth National Congress of the Communist Party of China as a representative of Anhui. After this meeting, he entered not only the Politburo, but also the top leadership of the army.
This transformation had a profound impact on the rest of his revolutionary life. 3.Li Desheng was able to become a member of the party's high-level meeting from an ordinary observer, thanks to his excellent work ability and solid reasoning.
His efforts and persistence have enabled him to leave a strong mark in the party's history.
Li Desheng returned to Hefei, Anhui Province shortly after the conclusion of the Ninth National Congress of the Communist Party of China. At that time, although his election as an alternate member of the Politburo kept him busy, he decided to focus his work on Anhui.
Two months later, however, the situation changed. One day in July 1969, Li Desheng was in a meeting, and the secretary told him that *** was looking for him. Li Desheng picked up ** and told him directly at the ** end: "Comrade Desheng, ** has decided to transfer you to Beijing to work."
As soon as you take over your current job, you will come to Beijing to take up your post. Hearing ***'s words, Li Desheng was very surprised, and he hurriedly said: "Prime Minister, you know me, I have been in the army for a long time and have little experience, so I am more suitable to work below."
Could you please consider allowing me to continue working in Anhui? ”
** Directly arranged for Li Desheng to take up a post in Beijing, Li Desheng resolutely obeyed the organizational arrangement, and after he figured it out, he greeted the local leading comrades and rushed to Beijing by plane.
** After reviewing the documents, put down work, shake hands with Li Desheng and arrange for him to sit down and talk.
**The care and thoughtfulness for Li Desheng is touching. When deciding on Li Desheng's work unit, he not only considered Li Desheng's personal wishes, but also inquired about his family situation and cared about his life.
Despite ***'s busy schedule, he still cares about the details of his subordinates, and even approved Li Desheng's one-month vacation so that he can arrange his work well. This attitude and action towards subordinates undoubtedly reflects the personality charm and leadership style of the first class.
During the interview, Li Desheng was deeply impressed by his calm and steady attitude, approachable style and gentle and cordial conversation. Li Desheng felt that he was not only a leader respected by the whole party and the whole army, but also an elder who could be trusted and trusted.
After listening to a conversation, Li Desheng gained a lot, but he also realized the difference between ** work and local work. On the way back to Jingxi Hotel, Li Desheng kept thinking about this question.
However, after some careful consideration, he set a principle for himself: "Learn more and ask more, learn more from *** and ***!" After getting the approval of ***, Li Desheng took leave to return to Anhui and handed over the important work of the province one by one.
He urged the comrades of the provincial party committee to uphold the belief in serving the people, do a good job in the work of evaluating work, and give feedback to the organization in a timely manner. After completing the handover of work in Anhui, Li Desheng returned to Beijing and began the practice of studying and working at the same time.
Soon after Li Desheng was transferred to work, he was met by **. One day, Li Desheng received a notice that *** wanted to see him. Accompanied by ***, Li Desheng came to ***'s office.
Walking into the room, ** enthusiastically introduced to the chairman: "Chairman, Comrade Desheng is here. ”
**When meeting with ***, **noticed Li Desheng's nervous expression, so he asked kindly: "Comrade Desheng, you are 53 years old, do you also have to wear glasses?" ”
Li Desheng was asked a little **, but he quickly reacted and replied honestly: "You really need to wear glasses when reading documents and books." * He then praised Li Desheng, saying that he had learned from other comrades that Li Desheng was a good person, and that he could see that Li Desheng was very practical.
However, ** also pointed out the limitations of Li Desheng's knowledge, and suggested that he read more books on history, literature, science and technology to enrich his knowledge and vision.
Picture丨Li Desheng (second from right) Li Desheng nodded after listening, and then *** introduced the arrangements for Comrade Li Desheng's work and life. Li Desheng took the opportunity to say that the burden on his shoulders was too heavy, and he hoped to be able to remove a few positions, but *** said: "No need to be exempt, you can do it boldly." ”
**'s approach is undoubtedly to put a heavy burden on General Li Desheng and hone him well, so as to prepare for more important tasks for him in the future. In this conversation with ***, Li Desheng also told *** his doubts, namely: how to work better in the new position?
**The point of view is: since you have been engaged in military work for a long time in the past, then when you come to a new position, the first task is to study hard and seriously, so as to make yourself have a broad vision and clear thinking!
In the days that followed, because of his new position, Li Desheng still reported to *** many times and listened to ***'s teachings. For Li Desheng, this is undoubtedly a great improvement in his work ability.
In 1971, Li Desheng was appointed commander of the Beijing Military Region. Because of the importance of the geographical location of the Beijing Military Region, for this reason, he also met with Li Desheng many times and gave him instructions.
Not long after Li Desheng became the commander of the Beijing Military Region, he talked to Li Desheng once, and it was through this conversation that Li Desheng realized that there were still things in him that needed to be corrected urgently.
In this conversation between *** and Li Desheng, ** asked Li Desheng a question: "Do you know why Beijing is called Yanjing, and the earliest settlement of Beijing is in **?"
** I recommended the "Minutes of Reading History and Public Opinion" for Li Desheng, hoping that he could have an in-depth understanding of the history and geography of Beijing and North China in order to better carry out his work. After reading it, Li Desheng felt that the instructions were very important and helped him a lot in his work.
At that time, Sino-Soviet relations were tense, and how to defend against foreign invasion, strengthen national defense construction in the north, and defend the security of the capital were the major matters that the chairman and the Soviet Union were most concerned about. ** Talked to Li Desheng many times, emphasizing the need to attach importance to the construction of troops in North China, and raised some questions that made him think deeply, such as the enemy's airborne landing in North China and the evacuation of urban population.
During his tenure as commander of the Beijing Military Region, Li Desheng profoundly realized the importance of the directives for war preparedness. He personally organized the implementation, paid attention to combat readiness and troop training, and received the most cordial care and safety guarantee when flying to check the terrain.
During his tenure, Li Desheng has always adhered to his post, resolutely implemented the instructions of the organization, and completed the tasks assigned by the organization excellently. His work ability has been highly recognized by Mr. Zhu and others.
After many years of work, Li Desheng has been deeply guided by *** and has deep feelings for him.
After the death of General Li Desheng on September 9, 1976, he was unable to see the chairman for the last time because he was working in Shenyang, and he was unable to listen to the chairman's teachings again.
Upon learning of the Chairman's death, he immediately rushed to Beijing and became a member of the Chairman's Funeral Committee. In the mourning hall, when he saw the chairman's remains, he had mixed feelings in his heart, sorrow came from it, and tears fell like rain.
He recalled the bits and pieces of getting along with the chairman, and the marks of those years were now turned into tears and flowing in his heart.
