In China's modern history, there is such a general, he is regarded by Chiang Kai-shek as a confidant, and the Japanese as a thorn in the side, and even *** has to avoid him when he sees him. So, who is he?
Why is it so powerful? Although he was classified as a Kuomintang general, in reality, his loyalty to the Communist Party was unwavering. Let's explore the story of this mysterious general.
He once boldly drank *** tea, tasted Mr. Zhu's apples, and often played pranks in the army, but no one disliked him because of this, but he was loved. Even *** was afraid of him, and Mr. Peng couldn't confront him head-on, so as not to be teased by him.
Who is he? It was Chen Geng. In the Second Eastern Crusade in 1925, under the personal command of Chiang Kai-shek, the enemy was attacking fiercely, and the troops were about to be broken. Most chose to retreat, but Chiang Kai-shek insisted on staying put.
He watched his troops being scattered, but he was overwhelmed. At this time, Chen Geng stepped forward, carried Chiang Kai-shek, and escaped from the battlefield safely.
Chiang Kai-shek was very unwilling after the defeat and kept saying that he would die for his country, but Chen Geng advised him not to be discouraged, because the loss of a division of troops was nothing, as long as they rested, they could still fight again.
Chen Geng proposed to leave the battlefield with Chiang Kai-shek, who was seriously injured at this time, but was able to save his life thanks to Chen Geng's rescue. However, it didn't take long for Chiang Kai-shek to plan counter-revolutionary activities, and Chen Geng immediately drew a line with him, because Chen Geng was dedicated to the country and had become a member of the Communist Party.
During the confrontation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, Chen Geng was repeatedly caught by the reactionaries, which made Chiang Kai-shek feel overwhelmed, after all, he was his benefactor. So, Chiang Kai-shek tried every means to win over Chen Geng, but Chen Geng always insisted on his original intention and would not be shaken by any **.
In the end, under the condemnation of **, Chiang Kai-shek had to release Chen Geng.
Chen Geng, a brave and resourceful, cheerful figure who is firm to the party, he is called "pistachio" by leaders such as *** and ***. He was always accurate in the big things, but a little mischievous in the little things.
When he was a student in Whampoa, he used to play tricks on his classmates. For example, smoking is prohibited in schools, but this does not prevent enthusiastic young people from trying. Jiang Xianyun and his classmates were secretly smoking in the dormitory, and just as they were chatting hotly, the sound of leather shoes tapping came from the corridor.
Jiang Xianyun hurriedly hid the cigarette in the futon, and he himself was covered by the futon. They were nervous as they heard the sound of leather shoes getting closer and closer, and then they heard the chief shouting, "Which boy smoked in the dormitory?"
Isn't the school non-smoking? Hurry up and get me out. Jiang Xianyun was ready to accept criticism, but on second thought, it might just be a prank by Chen Geng.
General Chen Geng is not only good at pranks, but also an amiable father. After he became a general in 1955, he did not put on a show in front of his children.
His children were very young at the time, and after being awarded the rank, he jokingly told them that he would receive "tahini". The children were young and didn't understand that Chen Geng was joking, so when someone outside asked them what their father was, they replied "sesame paste".
This answer made everyone present laugh, and everyone thought that General Chen Geng was very funny and humorous. The children were able to say such things because General Chen Geng often said this in front of them, so everyone felt that he had a "general's demeanor".
Chen Geng's life is full of fun, and his humor has made him much attention. Although he sometimes jokes with everyone, no one will hold a grudge against him for it, because he always has a sense of measure and does not get bored.
His military prowess was remarkable, he was brave and resourceful on the battlefield, and he commanded the battle without ambiguity. Even, many classic battles were commanded by him. Chen Geng devoted his life to the country and the people, but his heart was abused by the reactionaries and left the root of the disease, and he passed away when he was in his 50s, which is undoubtedly a great loss for the country and the people.
