Liao Guanxian's anecdote.

193 1 year, the Central Military Commission established the Red Army School of Chinese Workers and Peasants in Ruijin, Central Soviet Area. In the winter of this year, Liao Guanxian, a messenger monitor in the 3rd Regiment of the 35th Division of the Red 12 Army 1 Camp, and more than a dozen other people were informed by their superiors that they would take an examination of the Red Army School. Liao Guanxian was very happy, but she was a little worried about failing the exam. Because he comes from the countryside, he looks like a little tiger when fighting, but he is stupid in reading and writing. Although I have a high degree, I don't know how to take the exam.

The examiner is Tan Zheng, director of the Political Department of the Red Twelve Army. There are two main subjects: culture and politics. The way to test culture is to read newspapers and documents and see if you can read them. Director Tan picked up the Ten Programmes of Agrarian Revolution and put them in front of Liao Guanxian. He asked him kindly, "Can you read them down?"

Liao Guanxian said, "You try!"

After Liao Guanxian attentively watched a phone call, Director Tan smiled with satisfaction.

Then I took a political test, and there were papers with political common sense such as "What is imperialism" and "What is capitalism". Under each topic, there are three or four answers, right or wrong, and candidates must distinguish. When Liao Guanxian came across the question "What is the struggle between the two routes", he was stumped. There are three answers to this question: the first one is "one is to open the heart market and the other is to fight the old camp"; The second is "the struggle against' Left' and Right opportunism"; The third is "since' left' opportunism is wrong and so is right opportunism, then we stand in the middle, right?" He thought for a long time, thought for a while, thought that the first answer might be right, and drew a circle. As a result, he made a big joke Later, Liao Guanxian recalled this incident and said, "Actually, I just became a Red Army, and I know little about Marxism-Leninism and political theory. I only have one idea. I have to be a Red Army when I am a soldier. There is no other way out. "

After passing the exam, Liao Guanxian was admitted. 193 1 In 65438+February, he came to Ruijin from Tingzhou, Fujian with a backpack and began his study and life in the Red Army School.

After Liao Guanxian entered the Red Army School, he was assigned to the fourth company to train the political instructor of the company. The company commander of the fourth company was Su Yu, who later became a general.

During the "Red School" period, due to the blockade of the Kuomintang, the materials in the Central Soviet Area were very scarce. In order to train Red Army cadres, the Party still tries its best to create learning conditions for students. Everyone was given a notebook, which was made of wool paper made of local bamboo, and it was quite good at that time. Everyone got a pen. The desks and chairs in the classroom vary in size and are very untidy. Liao Guanxian realized, however, that such a condition should be met, which was obtained by the heroic fighting and blood sacrifice of his comrades at the front. He cherishes every minute and studies hard, just like walking in a snowy day, one step at a time.

Because Liao Guanxian studied hard, studied cultural knowledge seriously and grew up step by step. During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, he served as the political commissar of the Eighth Route Army129th Division Cavalry Corps and the political commissar of the 772nd Regiment of the 386th Brigade. After the establishment of People's Republic of China (PRC), he served as the vice president of the Second Political Cadre School, the political commissar of the Chinese people's Volunteer Army Army, the deputy political commissar of the Wuhan Military Region Air Force and the political commissar of the airborne troops, the director of the Air Force Political Department of the China People's Liberation Army and the political commissar of the Air Force Logistics Department, the political commissar of the Nanjing Military Region Air Force and the political commissar of the Wuhan Military Region Air Force. 1955 was awarded the rank of major general. He is a representative of the Fourth National People's Congress and the Eighth and Eleventh Congresses of China * * * Production Party.

Liao Guanxian will never forget the study life of "Red School". Su Yu's serious lectures and personal demonstrations in Red School, as well as his flexible teaching according to students' ideological reality, often appear in my mind. 1960, Liao Guanxian went to Guangzhou for a meeting and met General Su Yu. Liao Guanxian asked Su Yu, "Do you still know me?" Su Yu said, "I look familiar, but I can't remember the name."

After 30 years, the two old Red Army met. Su Yu said with deep affection, "Most of the comrades in the Fourth Company of Red School died in the revolutionary war. So far, it's just you and me. We are survivors. It is difficult to start a business! "
