He used to be a *** guard, and was promoted to general after 913, and his son was also a general.
The defeat of the Great Revolutionary Movement marked the rupture of the first cooperation between the two parties, and at the same time ushered in a new era, the era of the agrarian revolution. In order to resist the rule of the Kuomintang, our party fired the first shot of armed resistance, and the Nanchang Uprising officially broke out.
Inspired by the Nanchang Uprising, he led the Autumn Harvest Uprising, which became an important event in the history of the development of the Communist Party of China.
After the setback of the Autumn Harvest Uprising, ** resolutely led the team to Jinggangshan and established our party's first rural revolutionary base - Jinggangshan Revolutionary Base Area. It is worth mentioning that the one who was responsible for protecting the safety of the mountain was Zhang Zongxun, the guard next to him.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Zhang Zongxun was awarded the rank of general, what wonderful stories are hidden in his body?
Zhang Zongxun graduated from the fifth phase of Huangpu, and came into contact with and believed in Marxism-Leninism during his study at the Huangpu Military Academy, during which he joined the Communist Party of China with honor. After graduating, he served in the National Revolutionary Army and actively participated in the Northern Expedition.
What Zhang Zongxun did not expect was that in 1927, the Great Revolution would fail, and the first cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party would also break down. However, in this year, Zhang Zongxun participated in the Autumn Harvest Uprising led by ***, and he served as the commander of the 6th Company of the 2nd Battalion of the 1st Regiment of the 1st Division of the 1st Army of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army.
Subsequently, after the reorganization of Sanwan, Zhang Zongxun was promoted to deputy company commander, and at the same time, he was also appointed as the first guard. He led a platoon of soldiers and horses to escort *** to Jinggang Mountain, thus creating our party's first rural revolutionary base area.
Zhang Zongxun was one of the founding generals of the People's Republic of China, served as deputy commander of the First Field Army, and made outstanding contributions to stabilizing the social situation in the northwest region and consolidating the new political power.
In 1952, he was transferred to Beijing as Deputy Chief of the General Staff, and the following year he was appointed Deputy Director of the Training Directorate. In the same year, our army held the first award ceremony, and Zhang Zongxun was awarded the rank of general.
After a special period of ten years, Zhang Zongxun was not spared. As a member of the cooperation with Mr. Peng in the northwest during the Liberation War, he was implicated, "knocked down" and suffered serious physical and mental **.
However, **'s concern for him has not diminished because of this. After hearing that Zhang Zongxun was serving as deputy commander of the Jinan Military Region, ** personally inquired about the specific situation of Huang Yongsheng and Zhang Zongxun.
Although Zhang Zongxun was still in a state of being "knocked down" at that time, with ***'s concern, Huang Yongsheng could only arrange for Zhang Zongxun to go to the Jinan Military Region as the deputy commander, which also allowed him to start working again.
However, unfortunately, in the September 1971 913 incident, Qiu Huizuo, one of the "Four King Kongs" of Mr. Lin, was censored in isolation. As head of the General Logistics Department, his review left the post vacant.
After the 913 incident, Zhang Zongxun was reused, succeeded Qiu Huizuo, and became the new director of the General Logistics Department.
Zhang Zongxun served as the head of the General Logistics Department until his retirement in 1978, during which he always adhered to his post. It is worth mentioning that his son Zhang Youxia is also excellent, who served as a commander and fighter in the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam, and has made great achievements for the border security of the motherland.
In the Battle of the Two Mountains, Zhang Youxia successfully led the troops to stick to the front line with his outstanding command skills, and was promoted to deputy commander of the 40th Division, and later served as the commander of the 40th Division, the deputy commander and commander of the 13th Group Army, and the commander of the Shenyang Military Region until he was promoted to general in 2011.
Zhang Zongxun and Zhang Youxia, father and son, are both generals, which is very rare in the entire army.
