If Peng Xuefeng is not sacrificed, can he be awarded the rank of general in 55 years?
If General Peng Xuefeng hadn't sacrificed, how many stars would he have been awarded in 55? One? Two? Still is...... Three?!
Hello everyone! Today, let's not talk about gossip or Fengyue, let's talk about some serious yet interesting historical topics - if General Peng Xuefeng, a famous general of the New Fourth Army, had not died unexpectedly in the "Little Balizhuang" on the eve of the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, how many golden stars would he have been able to wear when he was awarded the title in 55? One? Two? Still blinded...... Three?!
Don't rush to conclusions, let's first look at General Peng's "star journey". The original text mentions that General Peng was the commander of the Fourth Division of the New Fourth Army when he died, which is equivalent to the brigade commander of the Eighth Route Army (the original text says the regiment commander, which is slightly inappropriate). After all, there are 57 generals, and the number of places is generous. But if you want to say that it is a general, then the competition is fierce, after all, the "top ten generals" are one in a million, all of them are "fairy fights", no one less, and one more seems crowded.
The original text also mentioned that General Peng's sacrifice was a "loss"! The War of Resistance was about to be won, but it turned out to be under the guns of "their own brothers" (although it was "precision-guided" by snipers, but it was the Kuomintang recalcitrant army at that time), if it is left to the present, it will be a proper "industrial accident"! Moreover, the earlier the war, the higher the probability of sacrifice, during the Red Army period, it was really a "mountain of corpses and a sea of blood", how many generals fell! In the Anti-Japanese War period, the conditions are better, and the probability of high-ranking generals dying is much smaller. General Peng's sacrifice is really a sigh!
However, the great man's evaluation of General Peng is quite high! "Little Balizhuang, I actually lost one of my generals!" This is not just a casual statement! It can be seen that General Peng's status in the minds of great men! Looking at the seven division commanders of the New Fourth Army, Su Yu, Zhang Yunyi, and Huang Kecheng were all rated as generals, and Li Xiannian and Tan Zhenlin were also popular candidates for generals, but later went to work in local areas. With such a comparison, if General Peng is alive, it is really not impossible to evaluate the general!
But! Fear a "but" in everything! Rating this thing, the water is very deep! Seniority, Exploits, Position, Factions, Balance...... All sorts of factors to consider! General Peng's qualifications are not as good as Zhang Yunyi, Huang Kecheng, and Tan Zhenlin, and it is difficult to surpass Su Yu in military exploits, so the general is a little hanging.
However, the original text threw out another "Wang Bang" - Peng Xuefeng is one of the 36 military strategists in New China! This is no joke! The general is the "entry threshold" of military strategists, the top ten marshals and the top ten generals are all military strategists, and among the 57 generals, there is not a single military strategist! So, from this point of view, General Peng is up to the standard of a general again!
Therefore, in the end, it is really hard to say how many stars General Peng will be able to wear! If he performed well in the Liberation War and became a corps commander or something, then the general would be proper, and the general would have a glimmer of hope. But if you go to work in a local area, you will have nothing to do with the rank.
In fact, whether it is a general or a general, they are all heroes who have made great contributions to New China! In the eyes of the common people, they are all equally worthy of respect! Just like Wang Shusheng and Xu Guangda, the two generals, their reputation may not be as good as some generals. Therefore, if General Peng is alive, it is good to be rated as a general, after all, being alive is the most important thing!
Finally, let us pay tribute to General Peng Xuefeng! I also pay tribute to all the revolutionary martyrs who threw their heads and shed their blood for New China!
