I am diligent in learning all my life; The plan of using troops is slightly better than Sun Wu; If the command is determined, it will be superb; Great talent, ancient name wind.

Liu Bocheng (1892~ 1986), Marshal People's Republic of China (PRC), founder and leader of China People's Liberation Army, was a modern strategist. 19 1 1 Join the Revolution of 1911, join the student army, and participate in the war to protect the country and protect the law. After joining the China * * * Production Party, he organized the Hushun Uprising and Nanchang Uprising, and successively served as Chief of Staff of the Central Red Army, Division Commander of the Eighth Route Army 129 Division, Commander of the Second Field Army, Dean of the Military Academy, and Deputy chairman of the Central Military Commission. He has made immortal contributions to the establishment and expansion of China's revolutionary army, the victory of the revolutionary war and the establishment of new China, and the normalization and modernization of our army.

1. Marshal Road of Rough Life

Liu Bocheng, formerly known as Zhao Ming, was born in a poor peasant family in Zhangjiaba, Kaixian County, Sichuan Province. I went to a private school, a high school and a public middle school. When the Revolution of 1911 broke out, Liu Bocheng 19 years old. He immediately joined the struggle to overthrow feudal rule, joined the student army, entered a crash course in Chongqing Army Distribution School the following year, and was assigned to the Fifth Division of Shu Army as a purser after graduation. After the war to defend the country broke out, he became a platoon leader again. Because of his bravery, he was promoted to company commander by the fire line, but the Shu army was quickly defeated by Yuan Shikai's army, and even the commander-in-chief of the Shu army who commanded Yuan was beaten away. The troops were separated and Liu Bocheng went home to take refuge. Soon, Liu Bocheng, eager to save the country, came out to take part in the revolutionary struggle.

19 16 years, in the struggle for Yuan's protection of the country, Liu Bocheng organized the fourth detachment of the Sichuan National Protection Army, which soon grew to more than 2,000 people. He led the army to capture Fengdu, and was seriously injured and lost his right eye in the counterattack of the reactionary army. However, Liu Bocheng, who was only 24 years old, lost his reputation as a famous Sichuan Army soldier because of his good command and fierce fighting.

Liu Bocheng fought in the Sichuan Army for ten years, participated in the war to protect the country and protect the law, and also participated in the war between warlords. He was deeply disturbed to see that the war had brought pain and disaster to the people. 1926, under the guidance of Wu and others, Liu Bocheng accepted Marxism and joined the producers' party of China. Entrusted by the Party, he and Yang Zhangong organized uprisings in Shanghai and Shunyi to cooperate with the Northern Expedition. After Chiang Kai-shek rebelled against the revolution and the cooperation between the two countries broke down, Liu Bocheng, under the instructions of the Party, went from eastern Sichuan to Nanchang and organized Nanchang Uprising with Zhu De and other generals. After the failure of the uprising, Liu Bocheng and others sneaked into Hong Kong and moved to Shanghai in the winter of 1927. While hiding in Shanghai, Liu Bocheng, who was wanted, was reported by his son who was infected with bad habits and was arrested many times. Under the arrangement of the Party organization, Liu Bocheng went to study in the Soviet Union and escaped the pursuit of reactionaries.

After returning from the Soviet Union, Liu Bocheng served as the chief of staff of the Central Military Commission, assisting Zhou Enlai and Zhu De in directing the fourth counter-campaign against "encirclement and suppression" and winning. Facing the "Left" line and Li De's blind command, Liu Bocheng dared to stand up and fight. He warned Li De: "If we don't stop this tactic of fighting for consumption and adopt flexible policies, the base areas will be lost and the Red Army will fight for it, and we will become sinners through the ages." His correct opinion was not only ignored, but also removed from the post of chief of staff.

The Red Army began to learn from its bitter defeat. 1935+ 10 In June, after the Red Army laid Zunyi, an emergency meeting of the Central Committee was held. Liu Bocheng firmly supports Mao Zedong's correct opinion. After Mao Zedong presided over the work of the Central Military Commission, Liu Bocheng's military road gradually became prosperous. On the way to the Long March, at every critical moment, he always came to the front line to command. There are hundreds of thousands of pursuers behind, and there is the Jinsha River natural barrier in front. Many people are afraid that the troops can't cross the river, but Mao Zedong said humorously: "Comrade Zhu De said that Sichuan called Liu Bocheng a dragon, so how can this river stop the dragon?" He will take us there! "Liu Bocheng really lived up to expectations and made the army cross the river safely. He also organized major military operations such as outwitting Zunyi, crossing the Dadu River and crossing ethnic minority areas, and made immortal contributions to the Red Army's Long March.

Liu Bocheng, the commander of the129th Division in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, and Deng Xiaoping, the political commissar, went deep behind enemy lines, established the Shanxi-Hebei-Shandong-Henan Anti-Japanese base area in Taihang Mountain, organized and commanded raids on Yangming Fort, ambushed Shentouling and Qigen Village in Sheng Qiao, shattered the Japanese siege on the 9th route and broke the "encirclement and suppression" on the 13th route. On the eve of the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, he led a large-scale counterattack against the Japanese invaders, annihilating more than 50,000 yuan and recovering 59 counties.

During the War of Liberation, Liu Bocheng was the commander of the Second Field Army. He organized the Shangdang Campaign and wiped out thirteen enemy divisions. Then the Battle of Tieping Han wiped out two enemy troops, then fought Longhai, made a plan, sent troops south, and jumped thousands of miles into Dabie Mountain according to Mao Zedong's deployment, which laid the foundation for the victory of the Liberation War. The East China Field Army in Liu Bocheng and Chen Yi organized the Huaihai Campaign, which wiped out more than 550,000 people in one fell swoop. It laid the foundation for national victory. Then cross the river, capture Nanjing, go south, and liberate East China and Southwest China.

After the national liberation, Liu Bocheng resigned as the chairman of the Southwest Military and Political Committee and founded the Military Academy of the People's Liberation Army in China, which made active efforts for the normalization and modernization of the army. Liu Bocheng served as the president of the Military Academy for more than seven years. He often personally examines textbooks, participates in exercises, and gradually improves the establishment and curriculum of military schools. However, just as Liu Shuai was working hard for military education, an unfair blow struck him. /kloc-in the summer of 0/958, the 66-year-old marshal fought against dogmatism. One day in July, at the meeting of thousands of people in Huairentang, Liu Shuai, who had a high fever of 39 degrees, was recalled to Beijing for reexamination. After more than ten years, the old marshal lost the joy brought by the victory of the war and often remained silent. However, he still cares about the construction of the army and the country. His unjust history has already reached a fair conclusion, and his achievements and contributions will be recorded in history forever. Liu Shuai's rough experience made his life more legendary.

2. outsmart Sun Wu.

Liu Bocheng was born in the army and has been a soldier all his life. He led troops to fight, not only brave but also resourceful. In the Sichuan army, he has a reputation as a great soldier. After joining the revolutionary ranks, he was good at learning and thinking, which made his command art gradually reach a superb level.

On the way of the Red Army's Long March, a series of war miracles, such as outwitting Zunyi City, crossing Liangshan Mountain, crossing Dadu River and flying over Huding Bridge, were created by the advance team under the command of Liu Bocheng.

In War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, Liu Bocheng led the Eighth Route Army129th Division into Shanxi's anti-Japanese front. He took advantage of the slight paralysis of the Japanese army to send a battalion to attack Yangmingbao Airport at night and achieved the record of blowing up dozens of enemy planes. In order to effectively wipe out the Japanese army, he skillfully set an ambush in Shentouling by attacking the city and luring the enemy to help advance, and wiped out more than 1,000 people in one fell swoop. In the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, he made great achievements. He took advantage of the military taboo and ambushed in the front of Qigen village in Shanxi twice, so that the Japanese army lost more than 100 lives in vain. In War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the strength of the enemy and ourselves is far from each other, so our army often adopts guerrilla tactics. Liu Bocheng took the command art of guerrilla warfare to the extreme. He said: "in guerrilla warfare,' swimming' is maneuvering, and' striking' is destroying the enemy; Swimming is to cover up your weaknesses and find the weaknesses of the enemy, while' striking' is to give play to your strengths and put aside the strengths of the enemy. " He summed up a series of concise and effective guerrilla warfare tactics, such as "attacking one point, absorbing its help, gnawing at one side and breaking the other"; "Die Hard Rowen" and "Take out the bottom of the pot"; "wolf tactics", "sparrow tactics" and "wasp tactics"; There are also "dragging the knife", "killing the carbine" and "sucking the enemy to help the enemy" and so on.

In the War of Liberation, Liu Bocheng's art of conducting reached perfection. Joining the Party in World War I wiped out more than 30,000 people in 13 divisions and dealt a blow to the Kuomintang troops who went to the liberated areas to seize territory. Fighting Han again and wiping out the enemy's two armies strongly supported Mao Zedong's Chongqing merchants. Then, on the orders of the Central Committee, they marched eastward, then went to Dingtao, fought Juye and hua county, and killed the Kuomintang army, winning all five wars and annihilating ten and a half brigades, accounting for more than 70,000 people.

Leaping thousands of miles into Dabie Mountain should be said to be a masterpiece of Liu Bocheng's military command art. This war is not so much a battle of wits as a battle of wits. At that time, the People's Liberation Army was still at a disadvantage. The Second Field Army left the base area and advanced into Lu Yu. Lu Yu was already under the tiger and the wolf. In order to cover up the real attempt to use troops, Liu Bocheng commanded the army to make many "fake" moves and led the enemy astray. Liu Bocheng first commanded the army to fight the southwest of Shandong, making the enemy mistakenly think that our army was going to seize Longhai, so he transferred troops to defend; Subsequently, he ordered the troops to feint at the Yellow River ferry, causing the northward troops to return to the base area. Chiang Kai-shek immediately transferred 30 brigades to Yuncheng and Juye. However, Liu Deng's army moved in the opposite direction, got rid of the home front, pushed south, and did not fight in the home front at all. At this time, Chiang Kai-shek believed that Liu Deng's troops were forced to flee to the south when they could not cross the river. When Liu Deng's army crossed the Vortex River, Shahe River and Yellow River, Jiang Jun understood our intention, but it was too late. After our army advanced into Dabie Mountain, it was like wedging a steel nail in the enemy's abdomen, which made Chiang Kai-shek feel deeply uneasy at any time. This action contained 90 of the 160 brigades of Chiang Kai-shek's army on the southern line. It laid the foundation for the victory of the war of liberation.

3. Diligent thinking and good study make a master of Confucianism.

Liu Bocheng worked hard all his life, which not only enabled him to complete the progress from a soldier to a marshal, but also became a proletarian strategist, known as a "Confucian general".

Among the generals of our army, Liu Bocheng is famous for his diligence. He admired the spirit of hard struggle of the ancients since he was a child. When studying in a private school, he is often the first to arrive and the last to leave. He recited not only the text, but also the notes. In middle school and military school, he was more diligent, so that he made outstanding achievements in all subjects. After entering the army, he still did not forget to study.

After the failure of the Great Revolution, Liu Bocheng, a Party member, went to study in the Soviet Union and was thirty-six years old when he entered the Soviet Red Army Advanced School. It is quite difficult to learn a foreign language at this age. However, he started with letters and pronunciations, and it took him more than two years to conquer the foreign language barrier, and he achieved excellent results in Russian and various subjects. By the time he graduated, he was ready to translate Russian military theoretical works.

After returning to China, he became the first translation section chief of our army. With the help of Russian tools, he systematically studied the history of the Roman War, the Napoleonic War and the Russian-Japanese War. Broaden his military vision. He also systematically studied Soviet laws, regulations and operational theories, and increased his knowledge of army regularization and modern warfare.

During the revolutionary war years, Liu Bocheng spent most of his time at the front. He often detained the art of war in the rain of bullets, put life and death aside and devoted himself to the art of war. Endless gunfire often accompanies his study of the art of war. For example, in 194 1 year, the Eighth Route Army Headquarters sent a translation of the contract and tactics for Liu Bocheng to revise. A year later, the translation was revised and copied. Liu Bocheng wrote in the preface: "In the process of revision, this book experienced three counter-sweeps." . At that time, it was in the most cruel stage in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, and there were wars almost every day. It was during this period that Comrade Zuo Quan died. Even so, Liu Bocheng did not forget to revise, and he regarded revision as a learning task. After that, I sent the translation of the second half of the contract tactics to Liu Bocheng. After the revision and copying, Liu Bocheng wrote in the preface: "When I went to the front line of the patriotic self-defense war, I took this contract tactic and its translation with me, and I really began to correct and supplement the translation. Fortunately, with the urging of enemy planes and artillery tanks and the help of my staff comrades, ... all the work before the war was completed. " People's Daily reported: "General Liu Bocheng has completed the proofreading and translation of the second half of Contract Tactics, with a total of100000 words. This is another great contribution of General Liu in annihilating Chiang Kai-shek 1 1 brigade within 100 days. ..... In a hundred days, General Liu galloped across the Hebei-Shandong-Henan Plain, winning five battles and winning five battles, with an average of one battle every twenty days. " "In the extremely busy self-defense war, General Liu took a break and immediately began to proofread the translation."

Liu Bocheng's study also lies in his summary and reflection on the war experience. He never let go of any influential war or battle, thinking that there was experience and education made of blood and life. From the failure of the Nanchang Uprising to the major battles and battles in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the Liberation War, Liu Bocheng often made systematic reflections and summaries. He stressed that "the use of troops should proceed from reality and make the subjective conform to the objective."

Liu Bocheng assiduously studied military theories at all times and at all times, at home and abroad, and conscientiously summed up practical experience, which enabled him to form his own unique military theory. He put forward the vivid "five elements", taking our army as the main body of the war, taking the task as the center, taking the enemy's situation as the premise and taking time and terrain as the material conditions. He often said: "The five elements are uncertain and lose their purity." He devoted his life to forming a systematic military theory.

For Liu Bocheng's efforts, Zhu De praised: "Study hard and never tire of learning." Marshal Chen Yi praised: "Study hard, dream hard, work hard and live hard". Even the senior generals of the Kuomintang said with emotion, "Liu Bocheng is honest and open-minded, and constantly seeks knowledge. Compared with the generals of the Kuomintang, he really stands out from the crowd. "

4. Devote yourself to education.

"Running the army must run the school first" is a famous saying of Liu Bocheng, and he is also practicing it. Struggled for it all his life. As early as in the Central Soviet Area, he served as the principal and political commissar of the Red Army School. On the way to the Long March, he served as the chief of staff of the Central Red Army, and successively served as the chairman of the Red Second Army and the Fourth Army. After arriving in northern Shaanxi, he served as vice president of the Central Red Army University during the busy war command. In the war of liberation, he led a great army to fight in the south and the north. While serving as the commander of the Second Field Army, he also served as the president and political commissar of the Second Field Army University. While directing the war, he also taught in person and appeared in front of the students as an instructor.

After the national liberation, Liu Bocheng became the first chairman of the Southwest Military and Political Committee. He accepted the task of running a school, resigned from his military and political post, and founded the Military Academy of China People's Liberation Army. He served as the first principal and later as the principal and political commissar.

In the early days of liberation, under the difficult environment of doing everything by himself, he strongly supported the sick and explored the way to run a high-level military command college under the new historical conditions with teachers and cadres. He worked hard to select teachers, carefully studied and determined the policy of running a school, and examined textbooks item by item. The school-running policy formed by our army in a peaceful environment, the curriculum and content selection of senior military schools are all condensed with the painstaking efforts of Marshal Liu Bocheng. After the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), Liu Bocheng presided over the military academy for more than seven years and made immortal contributions to military education.

In the process of running a school, Liu Bocheng advocated a good style of study and school spirit. School spirit is an important environment for educating people, and study style is an important condition for growth. In order to make the newly established school form a good atmosphere as soon as possible, he made the school establish complete standardized rules and regulations in a short time, and only through strict management can the implementation of these systems be guaranteed.

In order to meet the needs of modernization and regularization, Liu Bocheng personally examined and approved the teaching content and teaching policy. He put forward the training guiding principle of "tactics are warp, technology is weft, warp and weft are intertwined, and vertical and horizontal links are woven together", forming a whole. He emphasized that training and bringing up commanders who are good at organizing and directing the coordinated actions of modern services and arms is the training goal of senior military command colleges.

Running a school is inseparable from teachers. He proposed and adopted such methods as "crash" and "quick operation" to improve teachers' professional level, advocated "respecting teachers and attaching importance to teaching" and promoted teachers to love teaching work. Liu Bocheng is very concerned about teaching materials. He advocates that the teaching materials should be few and precise, and the content should be prepared correctly. He asked for proper formulation, scientific language preparation and no mistakes in punctuation. He often pays attention to the compilation, translation, proofreading and publication of teaching materials in his busy schedule.

In order to form a good school atmosphere and leadership style, he advocated "everyone should be the dean" and "deacons should do their own things". Advocate "* * * to study politics together and study their own careers; Unified and centralized leadership, straight to the grassroots; Centralized leadership and division of responsibilities ".

Liu Bocheng has made remarkable achievements in running schools. Mao Zedong affirmed Liu Bocheng's achievements in "Instructions for Military Schools". He said: "The establishment of military schools and their education for more than a year have made important contributions to the construction of standardized and modern national defense forces."

To sum up, it is not too much to describe Liu Bocheng's contribution to military education with the words "the pioneer of our military academy" and "the father of our military academy". Liu Bocheng read through all the military works at home and abroad, combined with the practice of China's revolutionary war, studied Marxist military theory, and had a unique exposition on guerrilla warfare, mobile warfare, positional warfare and headquarters work. His military strategy and command art are important contributions to Mao Zedong's military thought. His major military works have been included in Selected Military Works of Liu Bocheng. He also translated many Soviet military works.
