It has been said that criticism and self-criticism are the fine traditions of our party and are also the qualities that every qualified party member should possess.
In December 1978, our Party convened an important meeting in history. At the suggestion of the party, the senior cadres of the party successively carried out criticism and self-criticismAmong them, there are four high-ranking cadres of our party, who have been criticized by ***, and they have also reflected on the many shortcomings of their work in the past ten years.
So, who are these four senior cadres of our party who have been criticized? What is the historical end of each of them? How should we look back on this period of history today?
The first person who was criticized and self-criticized was the personal guard before his death: Wang Dongxing.
Wang Dongxing has a profound revolutionary experience, having joined our party since the Red Army period, and has gone through the agrarian revolution, the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the War of LiberationHe was known as the "most trusted person" in his later years. During the Revolutionary War, Wang Dongxing once risked his own life to ensure the safety of ***.
In 1947, Chiang Kai-shek ordered Hu Zongnan to mobilize hundreds of thousands of troops to encircle and suppress the Yan'an revolutionary base in northern Shaanxi. **led** the troops to start fighting in northern Shaanxi, and played "mushroom tactics" with Hu Zongnan. However, Hu Zongnan's army is like a crocodile's mouth, biting the tail of the *** troops. At the most dangerous time, Hu Zongnan's pursuers were only a hill away from the command post of ***.
At this critical historical moment, Wang Dongxing stepped forward, and he took the initiative to propose to *** that he was willing to lead a guard platoon to divert the attention of Hu Zongnan's pursuers. In the end, after the successful implementation of Wang Dongxing's "plan to divert the tiger from the mountain", ** survived the crisis.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949, Wang Dongxing also sacrificed himself more than once to ensure his personal safety. In the 70s of the 20th century, ** took a train to inspect the southern provinces, Wang Dongxing held a pistol and walked beside *** inch by his side. Wang Dongxing's unsightly protection for a few days and nights made *** very moved, and said to the people around him more than once"Although Wang Dongxing has no culture, he is loyal to the party and serves the people, don't underestimate him, Zhou Bo of the Han Dynasty has also made great contributions!" ”
In 1976, after ** died of illness, Wang Dongxing and *** formed a funeral committee together to take care of ***'s afterlife. In October 1976, at a turning point in historyWang Dongxing and *** turned the tide, ushered in a new historical period for the Republic, and laid a solid foundation for the reform and opening up in 1978.
However, Wang Dongxing himself is aware that in the past ten years of work, he himself has many shortcomings. Because he himself has not received a systematic education, he may be able to rely on his bravery more than enough in the work of guards, but his intelligence is somewhat stretched when it comes to determining the future direction of the republic. At the historical turning point of reform and opening up, Wang Dongxing, who is over 60 years old, may not be able to keep up with the pace of the times ideologically.
** The criticism of Wang Dongxing, as well as Wang Dongxing's self-criticism of himself, are generally very pertinent. But in general, Wang Dongxing's contributions to history cannot be ignored, and his exploits still occupy most of his life. In 1980, Wang Dongxing took the initiative to resign from all his positions and lived a life of retirement.
The second person who was criticized in 1978 and carried out self-criticism was the founding general of our country
** From the time of the Red Army, he joined the revolution and became a member of the Communist Party. During the decades of dedication to the War of Resistance against Japan and the War of Liberation, the heroic and good fighting of ** was praised by the chief more than once. In 1940, during the Battle of the Hundred Regiments, ** led the troops to attack the Japanese army's watchtower, and when he was injured by the Japanese army's gas gas, he was still able to carry a gun on the front line and kill the enemy bravely. After the end of the Battle of the Hundred Regiments, ** was transferred to the rear of Yan'an to recuperate.
After the outbreak of the Liberation War, the *** who can fight well has made a comeback. In 1947, Liu and Deng's armies crossed the Yellow River and prepared to leap thousands of miles into Dabie Mountain. However, the Kuomintang army pursued Liu Deng's army relentlessly, and even wanted to annihilate Liu and Deng's army when the Yellow River was halfway crossed. In times of crisis,stepped forward and took the initiative to propose to *** that he was willing to cut off the troops, but under the persecution of ***, the Kuomintang army had no choice but to retreat
After learning that *** forced back the pursuing soldiers of the Kuomintang with the courage of one person, ** couldn't help but sigh:He is a good fighter in the army! No one is better at fighting than him!
In the years of the Liberation War, ** also won the nickname of "Little Steel Cannon" in the army, this is because *** is very good at mobilizing fierce firepower to strike at the enemy's weaknesses, so as to win for our army. It is precisely because of this talent that appreciates ***So after the founding of New China, let *** serve as the commander of the artillery of the People's Liberation Army, responsible for the modernization of the artillery unit.
As it turned out, ** did not live up to the deep expectations *** had for him. With the efforts of the People's Liberation Army, the Chinese People's Liberation Army has successively built a series of various modern defense forces, such as anti-aircraft guns, anti-tank guns, and rocket artillery.
This series of achievements made *** very happy. So in the 70s of the 20th century, ** was transferred to Beijing to be responsible for the military defense of the capital, which shows the high trust of *** in ***.
In 1976, after his death, he was specifically responsible for the security of the capital, which allowed the republic to survive difficult historical moments. After the memorial service of ***,It has also smoothly completed the handover of Beijing's defense and continues to work hard for the country's national defense modernization.
In 1978, ** self-criticism of himself was that although he had made considerable achievements in the military, he still lacked some ** far-sighted vision in the development of the country. Therefore, ** subsequently resigned from his post on his own initiative, but the country still needs this brave and loyal generalTherefore, under the second promotion of ***, *** in his later years joined the Central Advisory Committee, and continued to make suggestions and suggestions for the country as an adviser, giving full play to his spare heat.
The third person to criticize and self-criticize in 1978 was known as the "Great Butler of Zhongnanhai".
**Like Wang Dongxing, they are all cadres from the grassroots level. After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, ** joined the Sacrifice League of our party's peripheral organization to save the country. Although he had never been to the front line, he had read some books, stayed in the rear of the revolutionary base area and made his own contribution to China's revolutionary cause.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, ** was left to work in Xuchang, Henan. In the 50s of the 20th century, when I took a train to inspect Henan and pass through Xuchang, I was received by ***. Invited *** to his train box, asked him about the living conditions of the local people in Henan, and in the face of the chairman's questions, ** answered fluently, which made the chairman very happy, so he wrote down the name of ***.
Under the promotion of ***, ** soon stood out at the grassroots level in Henan and became the leader of local young talents. In the 70s of the 20th century, after realizing that he had gained enough experience at the grassroots level, he transferred him to Beijing and asked him to work in Zhongnanhai, and entrusted him with an important task to be responsible for governing and rectifying the military discipline of the People's Liberation Army at that time.
After coming to Zhongnanhai, *** was not only proud, but also handled all the work in an orderly manner, which made *** even more sincerely appreciatedPraise *** is not only a representative of young talents in Henan, but also the "big housekeeper" of Zhongnanhai.
In 1975, the Prime Minister's condition became more and more serious, and considering the physical health of the Prime Minister, he asked the Prime Minister to come to the Prime Minister to assist the Prime Minister in handling the economic work at that time. In this way, ** has become the right-hand man of the prime minister. When the prime minister undergoes surgery, he replaces the prime minister and presides over the work of the country.
In 1976, ** passed away one after another, ** assisted *** in dealing with the affairs of the republic after ***'s death, and helped the republic to survive that period of sad history.
However, he was also aware of his many shortcomings: in 1978, he reflected on his lack of adherence to principles and the need to sharpen his beliefs. Therefore, he took the initiative to resign from his post to the party organization. It is extremely regrettable that 8 years after *** resigned from his position in 1980, he died of a heart attack.
In 1978, he took the initiative to criticize and self-criticize, and it was Wu De, who was praised as "virtuous".
Compared with the previous party members who criticized and self-criticized, Wu De joined our party in 1933, and his qualifications were much earlier than Xu **. In his early years, Wu De was mainly active in North China, where he was responsible for organizing workers' strikes, and also engaged in intelligence work in the Kuomintang for many years.
In 1937, after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Wu De led the workers of the Kailuan Coal Mine to launch a patriotic uprising. Later, Wu De led this uprising of workers' armed forces and joined the anti-Japanese guerrillas in eastern Hebei, dealing a heavy blow to the Japanese army behind enemy lines.
It was not until 1940 that Wu De came to Yan'an from the battlefield behind the enemy line, and told Ren Bishi and others about his leadership of the workers' strike and guerrilla operations behind the enemy line in the rear. **After listening to Wu De tell the ins and outs of leading the workers' strike, he said to the comrades around him:"A person like Wu De, dedicated to the public, selfless, is a talent, but easy to sacrifice, like this, must protect him! ”
On the occasion of Wu De's parting, ** was still uneasy about Wu De and said: "You are a rare talent in the party, I hope you can live." Later, Wu De did not live up to ***'s expectations. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Wu De was successively promoted to vice minister of the Ministry of Fuel Industry, mayor of Tianjin, and first secretary of Jilin Province.
In 1971, the news of Lin Shuai's death shocked both home and abroad, and in the face of this nerve-wracking historical moment, Wu De responded calmly and calmly, and finally sorted out the ins and outs of the matter. When Wu De reported the events before and after to *** one by one, ** praised:"Wu De is just a blockbuster! ”
In 1978, Wu De reflected on his shortcomings in his work in the past ten years, believing that he had neglected the details of his work, especially that as a revolutionary junior, he did not give the revolutionary predecessors the respect he deserved, so he took the initiative to resign from his post. In the 80s of the 20th century, Wu De joined the Central Advisory Committee under the promotion of *** and continued to make suggestions and suggestions for the country.
These four party members, they have all made certain historical contributions to the country, but the courage to self-criticize can show their high demeanor and integrity, and this spirit and bearing are also worthy of learning and admiration for future generations!
