In 1934, the Red Tenth Army was formed by the merger of the Red Seventh Army and the Red Tenth Army of the Fujian, Zhejiang and Jiangxi Military Regions, with the main tasks of going north to resist Japan, creating a new Soviet area on the border of Anhui and Zhejiang, responding to the Long March of the Red Army, and spreading the anti-Japanese ideology of our party.

In order to resist Japan and create a new Soviet area, the Red Tenth Army advanced north, but under the "encirclement and suppression" of the Kuomintang, the battle fell into disadvantage, Xun Huaizhou died bravely, and Fang Zhimin was betrayed as a traitor.

In front of Fang Zhimin**, he left a team and designated Li Buyin as the person in charge. Li Buxin persisted in guerrilla warfare in Taiping County, strengthened his ranks, and protected the flame of revolution.

So, what other interesting stories are there about Li Buxin? What was his end? Li Buxin, born in Shangrao, Jiangxi Province in 1907, was born in a poor peasant family.

During the agrarian revolution, he took part in revolutionary activities and developed a keen interest in Marxism-Leninism. In 1929, he officially became a party member, and since then, under the leadership of the party, he has been active in his hometown, propagating revolutionary ideas and developing revolutionary forces.

In June 1934, in order to resist Japan and save the country, our party reorganized the Red Seventh Army into the advance team of the anti-Japanese army in the north, and the heroic Li Buxin also joined it. Subsequently, the Red Seventh Army merged with the Red Tenth Army to form the Red Tenth Army, led by Xun Huaizhou, Fang Zhimin and others, and continued to embark on the road of resisting Japan in the north.

They founded the new Soviet region in the border area of Anhui and Zhejiang, which relieved the pressure on the Red Army's Long March and made significant contributions to the anti-Japanese cause.

In November 1934, during the operation to fight in southern Anhui, the advance team suffered a setback at Tanjiaqiao, Taiping County, and was forced to move in three ways. Although Li Buxin was traveling with Fang Zhimin at that time, Fang Zhimin gave Li Buxin a more important mission: to let him stay in Taiping County and persist in guerrilla warfare.

After receiving Fang Zhimin's instructions, Li Buxin resolutely stayed in the local area, on the one hand devoted himself to strengthening the revolutionary forces, and on the other hand, actively disseminated our party's anti-Japanese ideas. Thanks to his efforts, the guerrilla force gradually expanded, eventually growing to more than 200 people, becoming an important part of the New Fourth Army.

In 1937, the flames of the all-out war of resistance were ignited, in order to cope with the Japanese invasion, the guerrilla units in the eight southern provinces were reorganized into the New Fourth Army, and Comrade Li Buxin became the secretary of the special committee of southern Anhui.

After the incident in southern Anhui, Comrade Li Buxin did not leave the New Fourth Army, but went one step further and entered the Seventh Division of the New Fourth Army and became the deputy political commissar of the division.

At this stage, he participated in and led the large-scale production movement of the 7th Division, which made the division achieve remarkable results in production, becoming the "Rich 7th Division", providing important material support for the brother troops.

During the War of Liberation, Comrade Li Buxin was still active in East China and became the deputy political commissar of the Fourth Column of the East China Field Army.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Li Buxin devoted himself to the work of the East China Bureau, and actively devoted himself to the construction of New China as the deputy director of the Organization Department. Although he did not attend the 1955 investiture ceremony, his work in the East China Bureau won wide recognition.

In 1955, he was transferred to the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee as the head of the Political and Legal Cadre Management Division, and with his outstanding performance, he was promoted to deputy director of the Central Organization Department in 1960, which was also the first time he held this position.

However, time passed inexorably, and the arrival of a special period of ten years made Li Buxin feel impacted. In 1966, as deputy director of the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee, he was defeated and forced to suspend his work, which greatly affected him physically and mentally.

However, Li Buxin always adhered to his beliefs, maintained an optimistic and positive attitude, bravely struggled against the erroneous behavior of the "Gang of Four," and displayed lofty integrity and fearless spirit.

After the end of the special period, Li Buxin's life took a turn for the better. In 1978, he took up the post of deputy director of the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee for the second time.

After his comeback, he actively participated in key work such as putting things right, redressing unjust, false and wrongly decided cases, and implementing cadre policies, bringing hope and change to many cadres. To this day, Li Buxin's good deeds are still praised by people.

In his later years, he enjoyed his old age in Beijing, and during his serious illness, he specially instructed not to hold a farewell ceremony and to keep the funeral simple. In 1992, Li Buxin passed away peacefully at the age of 85.
