Comrade Li Jingquan has profound revolutionary qualifications, he joined the people's armed forces in 1927, once participated in the brutal Sanheba blockade battle, and later served as a secretary for the chairman to assist the chairman in handling many thorny military and political affairs, so he won the trust of the people. During the Anti-Japanese War, he was ordered to open up a revolutionary base in Inner Mongolia, resolutely fought against the Japanese puppet army and reactionary forces, and made countless meritorious achievements. However, it is such an excellent and good comrade, but he was not elected as a member of the ** committee at the "Seventh National Congress", what is going on?
Li Jingquan joined the Communist Youth League at the age of 16 and engaged in peripheral revolutionary activities in southern Jiangxi for a long time, assisting the party organization in developing peasant cooperatives and trade unions, so as to strengthen the power of the proletariat and resist oppression and exploitation. In 1927, the troops of the Nanchang Uprising were ordered to move to Guangdong, and when they passed through southern Gansu, they absorbed a large number of workers, peasants, and Communist Youth League members, including Li Jingquan. Li Jingquan has never been on the battlefield, and even the use of guns is now learned, but he did not have a fear because of this, in the subsequent battle of Sanheba, he fought bravely and did not retreat, fully demonstrating the heroism and tenacity of the revolutionary.
But unfortunately, after the war, Li Jingquan was accidentally separated from the large army on the way to transfer, and he was lost in the vast mountains of northern Guangdong. But even so, he did not give up the revolution, but through the help of local villagers, he found the local Communist Youth League organization, and successfully joined it and began to do underground work. In 1930, the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee sent him to Jiangxi to deliver a letter to ***, and the chairman saw that he was an extraordinary speaker and proficient in writing and ink, so he kept him by his side as a secretary. However, Li Jingquan did not get along with *** for a long time, and only eight months later, ** sent him to a certain department of the Red Army as a political commissar.
When the time came to 1938, after in-depth research, it was decided to open up a revolutionary base area on the line from Yulin to Suiyuan, which could fully awaken the anti-Japanese enthusiasm of the Inner Mongolian compatriots, and also protect the enemy from attacking Yan'an from the north. Li Jingquan was lucky to be selected to take full charge of the task of opening up a new base area, he did not dare to live up to the expectations of *** and others, and immediately ordered troops to go north, stationed in the Daqingshan area, and soon got in touch with the local party committee, and mastered a lot of key information.
At that time, the Japanese had always wanted to win over their Mongolian compatriots and planned to establish a puppet regime similar to "Manchukuo" in Inner Mongolia. Under the coercion and temptation of the Japanese invaders, a Mongolian aristocratic prince abandoned the national righteousness and chose to collude with the invaders. After Li Jingquan heard the news, he immediately sent troops to recruit this noble prince, and annihilated the so-called "Mengzi Army" organized by him in one fell swoop.
In 1944, Li Jingquan was recalled to Yan'an to study, and the following year, he participated in the "Seventh National Congress" and was included in the pre-selection list of ** members, but strangely, ** later crossed out his name. Because most of the comrades who ran for election were from the Red First Army, in order to avoid causing a storm and affecting the unity within the party, the right to run for election was appropriately cancelled by some comrades from the First Front Army, and the quota was given to comrades from the Second Front Army, the Fourth Front Army, and other troops. Li Jingquan understands ***'s hard work very well, so he did not have any dissatisfaction, let alone complain, and always took care of the overall situation.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Li Jingquan was sent to the southwest to engage in construction, at that time the development of the southwest was very backward, there was almost no heavy industry base, and there was not even a decent railway. In order to change this situation, Li Jingquan strongly advocated the introduction of railway lines from central China, connecting Sichuan, Chongqing, Yunnan, and Guizhou, and strengthening communication in the southwest.
In desperation, Li Jingquan had no choice but to go to the prime minister again and again to complain to the prime minister, hoping that the prime minister could give support to the southwest. In the end, under the overall planning of the prime minister, hundreds of factories have settled in Chengdu, Chongqing, Guizhou and other places, and in the 60s, a large number of war-ready factories were built in the southwest, which is very important for the development of the southwest.
Li Jingquan has always been very low-key, does not like to promote himself to the outside world, and rarely participates in any public activities, and his children once urged him to write a memoir, but he refused. And he rarely talked about his glorious deeds of participating in the revolution in the past, and he has always buried them deep in his heart. After Li Jingquan retired in the early 80s, he has been living in Beijing, living in seclusion every day, and even rare guests.
He died of illness in 1989 at the age of 80. In 2009, ** held a symposium for Li Jingquan, positively appraised all his contributions, and listed him as a model of a revolutionary, and his life deeds will be forever recorded in the annals of history!
