Chen Geng and Tan Zheng were the four generals and five generals during the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the legendary stories of the two are eye-catching. However, many people may not be clear about their origins and intersections.
In fact, the story between them is very exciting, and it is very appropriate to describe them with "only Chu is talented, Yu Si is prosperous" and "no Hunan is not an army". This is mainly based on the following points: firstly, they are not only fellow villagers, but also classmates and relatives.
Chen Geng and Tan Zheng are both from Xiangxiang, Hunan, and the two families are only about five kilometers apart. Their ancestors also have a deep relationship, Chen Geng's ancestor is a general of the Hunan army, and Tan Zheng's ancestor is a scholarly family.
The two families have always maintained close contacts, and even in their generation, the two families still correspond frequently. Therefore, Chen Geng and Tan Zheng have had a lot of contact since they were children, and their friendship is also deep.
Chen Geng and Tan Zheng: Fellow Townspeople, Classmates, Comrades, Legendary Military Career Chen Geng and Tan Zheng are not only childhood playmates, but also friends in school, and their friendship has gradually deepened over time.
Chen Geng is a few years older than Tan Zheng and takes great care of Tan Zheng, and Tan Zheng also respects Chen Geng very much. Their relationship became even closer because of Tan Zheng's engagement to Chen Geng's fourth sister okra, and Chen Geng became Tan Zheng's "eldest brother".
Chen Geng and Tan Zheng have their own legends in the fields of military and political industry respectively. Chen Geng's party seniority is old, he joined the Communist Party as early as 1922, and his performance at the Whampoa Military Academy was also very good, becoming one of the famous Whampoa "Three Heroes".
Chen Geng also worked in Tek, which gave him the characteristics of boldness, carefulness, agility and wisdom. He once rescued Ren Bishi and helped Guan Xiangying get out of danger. However, he was also suppressed and framed by Zhang Guotao, but fortunately he was accepted by ***.
Tan Zheng is one of my representative figures on the military and political front. He has a profound scholarly gene, which makes him a rare "talent" in our army. He was the first official secretary of the first chairman of the government, and participated in the preparation of "The Struggle in Jinggangshan" and the research and drafting of important resolution materials.
His contribution cannot be overlooked. The friendship between Chen Geng and Tan Zheng and their legends in their respective fields are both precious treasures in the history of our army.
Tan Zheng's article has been recognized for its guiding role in the transformation of the army's political work, and his "Opinions on the New Political Work in the Red Army" has been added.
During the Yan'an period, the "Report on the Political Work of the Army" he studied was regarded as another important document after the "Gutian Conference". During the War of Liberation, Tan Zheng organized a new-style army reorganization movement in the Northeast Field Army that laid the ideological foundation for the victory of the Liaoshen Campaign, and the experience was popularized throughout the army.
Although some military fans think that Chen Geng is ranked low, the evaluation of the rank of marshal and general is authoritative and serious. The great man believed that Xu Haidong had made great contributions to the party and the revolution, and supported *** and *** at the critical moment, so he was awarded the rank of general and ranked second, reflecting the clear side of the merits.
Huang Kecheng and Chen Geng are comparable in terms of service experience and command and fighting, but Huang Kecheng's appointment as secretary general of the Central Military Commission has added a lot of points to his ranking.
