In 1955, when the title was conferred, one person was awarded the rank of general, and his old subordinates and old leaders were happy for him, but he himself was sullen, not because he thought the military rank was low, but because he felt that he was not worthy, he was Zhu Liangcai, who had always been low-key and modest, and was the political commissar of the Beijing Military Region at that time.

Zhu Liangcai said to his wife: "My ability is limited, and I am not worthy of the rank of general." "The generals who can be awarded the rank of general have all been reviewed by layers of checks, and it is impossible for him not to be worthy, but he himself is too modest, and if you know a little about that period of history, you can know how great Zhu Liangcai is.

In 1925, 25-year-old Zhu Liangcai was already a primary school teacher, he had a stable and prosperous life, but driven by the idea of saving the country and the people, he devoted himself to the agricultural movement.

In 1927, in the environment shrouded in the White Terror, he still chose to actively join the party, and later participated in the Southern Hunan Uprising, and followed Mr. Zhu to Jinggang Mountain, where he was the first secretary of the Red 4th Army Military Department, and Tan Zhen was also the secretary, and Tan Zheng was awarded the rank of general.

At that time, the struggle against the enemy on Jinggang Mountain was very difficult, and if we wanted to gain a foothold on Jinggang Mountain, we had to defeat the enemy's "encirclement and suppression." In many battles of defense and anti-"encirclement and suppression" on Jinggang Mountain, Zhu Liangcai took the lead and his military talent was displayed.

At the beginning of 1929, Zhu Liangcai followed Mr. Zhu and Mr. Zhu to advance into southern Jiangxi and western Fujian, and participated in the Red Army's Jedi counterattack battle - the Battle of Dabaidi, and the marshal called this battle "the most honorable battle since the establishment of the Red Army."

At the beginning of 1937, Zhu Liangcai participated in the Western Expedition, he dragged his injured right arm alone, disguised as a beggar and begged all the way back to northern Shaanxi, his right arm was left with a lifelong disability, many years of combat career, so that Zhu Liangcai was already covered with bruises, Zhu Liangcai was transferred to the rear during the Anti-Japanese War.

During this period, Zhu Liangcai mainly assisted in the construction of military and political affairs, and then served as a military and political teacher, and trained a large number of outstanding generals for the People's Liberation Army, in 1955, Zhu Liangcai was appointed as the political commissar of the Beijing Military Region, which shows that the party and the party trust and respect him.

However, due to the long-term fatigue of work, coupled with the old injuries on his body, Zhu Liangcai had to be hospitalized, because he was often hospitalized, so that Zhu Liangcai felt deeply guilty, he occupied such an important position but could not work, he felt deeply sorry for the party and the people, so Zhu Liangcai planned to resign.

In 1958, Zhu Liangcai took the initiative to ask for resignation and recuperation, and several old marshals persuaded him to recuperate with peace of mind, and work again when he was sick, he insisted on resigning, Nie Shuai reported the matter to *** and asked Nie Shuai to persuade him, Zhu Liangcai still insisted on resigning, and no longer forced him.
