Each of China's top 10 founding marshals has made indelible contributions to the country and the people.
In terms of seniority, military exploits, and ability, these marshals were second to none in the army, and many of them were seriously wounded during their long revolutionary careers. Among them, ***, known as the "God of War", was the most seriously injured and even lost his right eye; And ** also left sequelae.
Among the ten marshals, only ** and *** were unharmed, but their situation in the dangerous situation is probably unimaginable to ordinary people.
**Marshal, the most seriously injured of the ten marshals. During his nearly half-century military career, he suffered nine injuries, injuring an artery in his right leg, his left leg, his right hand, his right eye, and his skull.
Some of these injuries were so severe that they were almost life-threatening. Back in 1913, the ** marshal experienced his first injury.
In the "Battle of Yuan", ** as a platoon commander of a member of the Sichuan Army, he took the lead. Unfortunately, he was hit in the left foot by the enemy during the battle. In order not to affect the battle plan, he bandaged it briefly and continued to follow the troops, and did not gradually recover until he returned to his hometown.
Soon after, ** organized an armed uprising in Sichuan, but was frantically suppressed by local warlords. In the battle, ** disregarded the danger of his life, rushed to the front line to command, and unfortunately fell into the enemy's bullet rain.
One of his bullets grazed his head, grazing his scalp; The other hit him directly in the temple and came out of his right eye frame, causing him to fall unconscious on the spot.
During the operation, he resolutely refused anesthesia, and in order to protect the brain function, he gritted his teeth and persisted in the operation for several hours while he was awake. Although the carrion from the wound was cleaned up, it was a pity that ***'s right eye lost its light as a result.
Dr. Walker was deeply impressed by this, and every time he mentioned him, he would praise: "He is not only a man, but also a talking steel plate, and he is fully qualified to be called the god of war." ”
On the battlefield, their iron will is incomparably strong. Take Marshal ***, for example, who was wounded 7 times in his later war career, but was never intimidated by injuries.
Amazingly, he died at the age of 94, the longest of the ten marshals, which can be called a miracle of life. Another worthy of our admiration is Marshal ***, who was seriously injured twice in his life, both during the period of the Red Fourth Army.
In the Battle of Huang'an, the commander-in-chief led the Red Fourth Army to use the captured aircraft to bomb Huang'an, and won the final battle victory in 43 days.
Although he was unfortunately shot in the right arm by the enemy while inspecting the battlefield, he was slightly wounded and remained in the front line of fire, helping the troops to withstand the enemy's most frantic counterattack.
Their spirit is something we should always remember and learn from.
** Injured again, his lower leg was unable to walk for a while. Once, during the command, because of the difficulty of moving, he even rolled off a cliff, and the injury became more and more serious. However, **was found by his comrades-in-arms and got a good **, so there were no hidden dangers.
Of the ten marshals, he was the thinnest, but his revolutionary will was in no way inferior to anyone's. The third is the ** marshal, whose injury is also the most regrettable.
He was not wounded by enemy troops, but was unfortunately attacked by friendly forces during an "oolong incident". In September 1937, the all-out War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression began, and the Kuomintang and the Communist Party formed an anti-Japanese united front, and ** served as the commander of the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army.
In particular, in the great victory of Pingxingguan on September 25, our army destroyed more than 1,000 enemies and captured a large number of valuable materials. Every cadre at or above the regimental level received a Japanese military officer yellow tweed army coat.
* The marshal was wounded in the Nanchang Uprising, but persevered in the struggle and eventually became an important leader of the Chinese Communist Party. In one battle, the marshal wore a military uniform and rode a horse and went deep behind enemy lines to investigate.
Unfortunately, due to the thick fog, the enemy mistook Marshal ** for an enemy soldier and opened fire, as a result of which he was seriously wounded. Although he was fortunate to survive, the injury left him with serious sequelae, including autonomic disorders such as fear of light, water, and sweating.
However, Marshal ** did not give up because of this, he persisted in the struggle and made a significant contribution to the revolutionary cause of China.
In 1938, the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression entered a stalemate, especially in the central Hebei region, and the Eighth Route Army lost its way with the guerrilla warfare tactics accumulated over the years.
Despite its frontal invincibility, the Japanese army was never able to withstand the development of the Eighth Route Army. ** The commander of the 120th Division at that time, decided to seize the opportunity and launch a counterattack against the Japanese army.
* Noting that the Yoshida Brigade, the ace unit of the Japanese army, located only 30 km from his station, immediately developed a strategy. Early the next morning, ** sent troops to lure Yoshida's brigade into a remote village, and then the 120th Division was taken by surprise with machine guns, pistols, and grenades.
The famous Yoshida Brigade suffered heavy losses, and in a fit of rage, they even used poison gas bombs, which were banned by international conventions.
* Unfortunately, he suffered from gas poisoning while commanding at the front, but fortunately, the medical team led by Bethune was rescuing in the 120th Division, and he was treated in time.
After waking up, he immediately threw himself into the front line, and after nearly 20 hours of fierce fighting, he successfully defeated the Yoshida brigade, killing more than 700 Japanese invaders, and at the same time bringing a turning point to the anti-Japanese war situation in the central Hebei region.
Next, let's get to know the story of the marshal.
* Marshal was the only founding marshal who did not participate in the Long March, and his absence from the Long March is not unrelated to his wounding on August 24, 1934.
At that time, the fifth anti-"encirclement and suppression" had reached the most tense stage, and the marshal accompanied *** to Xingguo County to fight. While passing through the Xingyu area, their team was besieged by **.
In order to successfully lead his troops to break through, the ** marshal stepped forward and engaged in a fierce battle with the Japanese army. Unfortunately, in the course of the battle, he was hit by an enemy bullet, which resulted in a comminuted fracture of the ischia and a momentary inability to move.
Under the erroneous leadership of Bogu and others, the Fifth Anti-"Encirclement and Suppression" campaign failed to achieve victory, and the Red Army had to embark on the road of the Long March. ****, who had difficulty moving, took the initiative to ask for help, stayed in the **Soviet area, and continued guerrilla warfare.
Although in the past three years, the resources of the Soviet area were tight, and they often faced the encirclement and suppression of the enemy, they always held their positions and turned danger into disaster many times. His injuries did not deter him, but rather strengthened him and eventually became the founding marshal.
** Marshal, known as the "contemporary Liu Bowen", ranked sixth.
One of the founders of the People's Liberation Army, he was mainly responsible for strategizing and rarely personally commanding operations. However, his military command ability in the early years of the revolution should not be underestimated.
In October 1934, the Red Army's Long March broke through the Xiangjiang River and passed through the western extension area on the border between Hunan and Guangxi. At that time, ** was serving as the commander of the first column, and after sensing the enemy's movements, he immediately commanded the troops to retreat and hide in order to protect his subordinates.
In order to ensure the safety of his team, he missed the best opportunity to hide and had to hide under the rocks nearby. However, this move was discovered by **, and the plane immediately dropped a shell near ***, accompanied by a loud ** sound, the shell blew the rock to pieces, and ** also fell in a pool of blood.
Regardless of the danger, his guards rushed to *** to try to pick him up. Although *** was conscious, his right leg could not move. It turned out that shrapnel was deeply embedded in his thigh, causing him to be unable to stand.
Years later, **'s leg wound healed, but the shrapnel was not removed, and until the day he died, he still had traces of the battle in his right leg. Seventh place: **Marshal Seventh placeWe are going to introduce *** Marshal.
Some people say that ** is a "political marshal", but during his time in the Red Army, he was often active in the front line of combat and made great achievements. His exploits were unparalleled even in the talent-rich Red Fourth Army.
On October 24, 1929, the Red Army easily conquered Meixian, however, a day later, the Kuomintang army made a comeback, and the Red Army chose to temporarily retreat in order to avoid a hard encounter.
However, a erroneous piece of information reached the command, believing that the Kuomintang troops stationed in Meixian were weak in combat. As a result, the Red Fourth Army decided to attack Meixian again, and this arduous task was entrusted to the then party representative of the second column
**'s army launched a fierce attack on Meixian, but they didn't expect that they were facing **'s elite troops. During the retreat, ** was unfortunately shot in the waist and immediately fell unconscious.
Fortunately, Tan Zheng, the secretary of the column, and Sun Kaichu, the clerk, rescued him in time and sent him to a nearby farmer's house for **. After regaining consciousness, ** still maintained a humorous side, and said with a smile: "It was the two masters who saved me." ”
And the eighth marshal *** was wounded once.
In November 1934, the Red Army's Long March entered northern Guangxi, and the Kuomintang's fourth line of defense was tightly sealed, and the Battle of Xiangjiang was about to break out. In this battle, which lasted 4 days and 4 nights, the Red Army suffered unprecedented heavy losses, and the number of people increased by 8The number of people dropped from more than 60,000 to 30,000, and the tragedy was indescribable.
During the crossing of the river, ** always stuck to the front line and commanded, despite the rumbling of enemy artillery, he remained calm. Unfortunately, he was hit by a bullet in his left foot and the wound was badly infected.
1.In the Battle of Xiangjiang, **, with his disabled body, let the guards carry the stretcher, personally command the front line, and finally led the troops to victory, thus opening a new journey of the Red Army.
And the **Marshal and *** Marshal, by virtue of their excellence in battle, won"Never hurt"of honors. 2.Despite his physical injuries, ** persisted in marching to the front and successfully commanded the victory in the Battle of Xiangjiang.
Marshal and Marshal are two heroes with an uninjured record, who performed well in battle and were never injured. 3.In the Battle of Xiangjiang, despite his physical injuries, he still insisted on going to the front line, and finally led his troops to victory, opening a new chapter for the Red Army.
And the **Marshal and *** Marshal, with their bravery and outstanding performance, won"Never hurt"of honors. 4.The physically injured *** did not flinch, but let the guards carry the stretcher and go to the front line, and finally commanded the troops to win the battle of Xiangjiang.
And the **Marshal and ***Marshal became, by virtue of their bravery and wisdom"Never hurt"of heroes. 5.Although he was physically wounded, he still insisted on commanding the Xiangjiang Campaign, and finally led the troops to victory.
And the ** Marshal and *** Marshal won by virtue of their excellence in battle"Never hurt"became the pride of the Red Army.
After going through ups and downs, he does not change his original intention, and ** is the "lucky general" of our army. On the battlefield, he did not have a single scar, because his command ability, like a sharp sword, can always avoid the enemy's edge, so that the enemy cannot hurt him.
On Jinggang Mountain, he and the guerrilla warfare mantra of "the enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy is stationed and disturbs me, the enemy is tired and I fight, and the enemy retreats and I chase" is the crystallization of his wisdom.
In combat practice, he carefully considered objective factors such as troop deployment and geographical environment, skillfully maneuvered with the enemy's forces, and displayed his tactical wisdom and leadership skills.
This is **, a "lucky general" who has been baptized by war, but is still safe and sound.
*'s conducting art is the key to his ability to turn danger into a crisis and successfully get out. ** The marshal also remained unscathed throughout his military career.
** He was praised as "who dares to cross the sword immediately, only I am General Peng", and his fiery personality and brave combat style are known to everyone.
In war, his wisdom and courage always allowed him to save himself from danger, as if there would never be traces of the battle left on his body. In October 1950, ** led the Chinese People's Volunteer Army across the Yalu River and entered North Korea, but he did not expect to be besieged by the United ** the next day.
However, with its unique strategic vision, ** skillfully used the tactics of attacking the east to divert the attention of the enemy, so that the volunteer army successfully broke through, went all the way north, came to the Yunshan area, and successfully arrived at the station.
Although the situation in North Korea is volatile, ** has always maintained calm and vigilance, many times, US fighters have detected the location of our army headquarters, but ***, with his wisdom and courage, he has always succeeded in avoiding enemy bombing.
Despite the fact that everyone around him was urgently evacuated from the bomb shelter, *** always remained calm in the midst of danger and firmly commanded the operation at the command headquarters. Deng Hua persuaded him to evacuate many times, but *** always insisted, and in the end, Deng Hua had to forcibly take him to the air-raid shelter.
** The marshal's revolutionary optimism was widely respected throughout the army, and his bravery and wisdom also allowed him to never be injured during his many years of fighting in the north and south. From the old society of warlordism and constant wars to the peaceful, stable, and constantly developing new China, countless revolutionary martyrs who shed their heads and shed their blood have made immortal contributions to the country and the people.
The exploits of these founding marshals are unparalleled, and they are the epitome of the vast number of warriors. According to statistics, from the time our party fired the first shot of the armed uprising to the founding of New China, more than 3,000 cadres at and above the regimental level were wounded.
The number of ordinary soldiers who died was as high as 3.7 million. Their efforts have brought us the happy life we have now, and we should always remember their contributions.
