A historical ** records a scene that took place in Yan'an on May 29, 1937. **, our military uniform is old but refreshed, and the opponent's military uniform is new but tense and cramped.
This reflected the economic strength of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party at that time. This shooting was to welcome the arrival of the national inspection delegation, and the delegation was headed by Tu Sizong and Xiao Zhiping.
** Emphasizing the importance of bipartisan unity at the welcoming ceremony, he said that the two parties have failed to unite in the past decade, but now the situation has changed, and if the two parties do not unite, the country will face extinction.
After the publication of this **, people were very interested in the image of Xiao Zhiping in **, thinking that his standing posture was like that of a primary school student, and he looked particularly funny when he straddled the kettle.
Xiao Zhiping, an anti-Japanese hero, is also a friend of our party. He was born in Sixia Village, Guanxi Township, Taihe, Jiangxi Province, and actively participated in the revolution as early as his youth, followed Li Liejun to participate in the Northern Expedition against Yuan, and swore allegiance to Sun Yat-sen.
In 1927, Chiang Kai-shek launched the April 12 coup d'état, wantonly hunting down and killing the Communists and the masses. Xiao Zhiping was the magistrate of Yongfeng and Linchuan counties at that time, and he resolutely opposed Chiang Kai-shek's betrayal of the revolution.
Later, he was transferred to the deputy commander of the 5th Division of the 36th Army and the commander of the 4th Brigade, responsible for the garrison of Wusongkou. At that time, the White Terror in Shanghai was very serious, and Kuomintang agents went around hunting for Communists and progressives.
In order to protect these people, Xiao Zhiping took measures to protect Songjiang Hospital from being searched by secret agents. In October 1934, the Red Army was forced to begin the Long March. Xiao Zhiping was transferred to the commander of the 1st Division of the Jiangxi Defense Division and the commander of the 96th Division of the 36th Army, and was ordered to "encircle and suppress" the Red Army.
However, he was unwilling to do so, and due to the ineffective "encirclement and suppression" and "pursuit and suppression", he was soon transferred from the army, and was later assigned to serve as the Sichuan Provincial Anti-Smoking Commissioner. Although he left the army, he always cared about the anti-Japanese resistance and repeatedly called for the cooperation of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party.
After the peaceful settlement of the "Xi'an Incident" in December 1936, Chiang Kai-shek agreed to cooperate with the Kuomintang and the Communist Party to resist Japan. At this time, Xiao Zhiping had returned to the 96th Division as the division commander, and he was very happy and prepared to immediately lead his troops into the anti-Japanese battlefield.
Because of this, he was able to become a member of the national expedition. In the autumn of 1938, he was transferred back to Ningdu, Jiangxi, to serve as the Administrative Inspector and Security Commander of the 8th District.
On August 24, 1939, Xiao Zhiping unfortunately sacrificed his life for the country while directing the shooting of Japanese planes, at the age of 44.
