The founding of the country will be withdrawn, where will it go?
The Lushan Conference in 1959 was like a nightmare for many of the founding generals. Mr. Peng's speech directly led to his dismissal and criticism, and this meeting is of great significance in history.
In fact, in addition to Mr. Peng, five founding generals were implicated and dismissed and criticized because of this meeting. So, who are these five generals? They end up being assigned to work?
How did it end?
At the Lushan Conference, in addition to Mr. Peng, the founding general Huang Kecheng was the highest-ranking among the people criticized. Why did he participate in this meeting? It turned out that Mr. Peng didn't want to attend the meeting at first, but later accepted Huang Kecheng's persuasion and decided to participate in person.
However, things didn't go as expected. The chairman personally invited some generals to attend the meeting, and Huang Kecheng was one of them. He was originally in Beijing to handle government affairs, and after receiving the invitation, he immediately rushed to Lushan to attend the meeting.
But it was this meeting that made Huang Kecheng fall into a passive situation. He was a straight man, spoke freely at meetings, insisted on his opinions, and even mentioned sensitive topics, such as the events of Stalin's old age, which made his situation even worse.
Later, he also made some remarks in support of Mr. Peng, which made his situation worse.
Despite his dismissal, Wong did not sink. After a five-year hiatus, he returned in 1965 and was appointed vice governor of Shanxi Province, an appointment far from his previous position.
Although he lost a lot of precious time, Huang Kecheng did not give up, and he eventually became an adviser to the ** Military Commission in 1977, a member of the ** committee in 1978, and the second secretary of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection after 1980.
Wong's life was full of challenges and difficulties, but his perseverance and perseverance enabled him to move forward in the face of setbacks until his death.
Among the founding marshals, in addition to Huang Kecheng, there were two marshals who had a close cooperative relationship with Mr. Peng in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, they were Deng Hua and Hong Xuezhi.
Their revolutionary friendship had a profound impact on later events. At the meeting, Deng Hua insisted on himself and spoke out, and despite facing accusations, he still spoke up for Mr. Peng.
However, thanks to his statement, he ultimately failed to escape responsibility. After the meeting, Deng Hua was removed from all positions in the party and the army, and since then he has withdrawn from the military circles.
After being dismissed, he was appointed vice governor of Sichuan Province, responsible for agricultural machinery work, and served for 16 years until 1977, when he was reappointed vice president of the Academy of Military Sciences and a member of the Communist Party of China's ** Military Commission.
Deng Hua's talents could have made more contributions to national construction and army building, but due to his poor health, he died in 1980 at the age of 70.
Hong's life is full of legends, and although he did not participate in the first phase of the meeting, he was invited to the second phase of the meeting and stood up for his views at the meeting.
His objective and impartial views on the situation and issues have won the respect of the people. Although he was eventually dismissed from his post, he still maintained a positive and optimistic attitude, and served as the director of the Agricultural Machinery Agency, the director of the Heavy Industry Agency, and the director of the Petrochemical Bureau.
After 17 years of perseverance, he was elected as a member of the ** Military Commission in August 1977 and returned to work in the army. In 1980, he returned to the post of head of the General Logistics Department of the People's Liberation Army.
In 1988, he was again awarded the rank of general, becoming the only person in our army who has been awarded the rank of general twice. He died in 2006 at the age of 93, and he used his life to interpret positivity and optimism.
When the founding lieutenant general Wan Yi and the founding major general Zhong Wei attended the meeting, they both encountered accidents because of their frank speeches. Wan Yi was removed from his position as deputy director of the National Defense Science and Technology Commission and sent to Shaanxi to undergo labor reform, but was soon appointed deputy director of the Shaanxi Provincial Forestry Department, where he did not return to the army until 1977 as an adviser to the General Logistics Department, eventually dying in 1997.
Zhong Wei was persuaded to leave halfway because of his speech at the meeting, was removed from his post and sent to Anhui for reform, and later became the deputy director of the Department of Agriculture, until 1980, when he returned to work, but eventually died of illness and failed to realize his desire to do something for the country.
Their experiences are yet another reminder that blunt rhetoric can be risky, but the spirit of self-assertion and service to the country is always commendable.
These founding generals who insisted on themselves at the Lushan Conference and spoke up for Mr. Peng, although they were dismissed from their posts in the later period, history and the people will never forget them.
The passage of time has finally allowed them to get the justice they deserve.
