Whenever talking about General Han Xianchu, Yao Kegui always said: General Han cares about the people and always maintains the belief of serving the people. I learned a lot from him!
General Han who cares about the people.
1in the spring of 965, Yao Kegui was transferred from the 83rd Division of the 28th Army to the office of the Party Committee of Fuzhou Military Region as a secretary.
Yao Kegui first met General Han Xianchu at a meeting of the Standing Committee of the Party Committee of the Military Region. Yao Kegui was sent to take minutes of the meeting, and General Han Xianchu also attended the meeting.
For general Han Xianchu's first impression, Yao Kegui has a particularly deep memory:
In a word, General Han Xianchu left a deep impression on him the first time he saw him.
After a year of adaptation, 1966 Yu, the cadre minister of the Political Department of the Winter Military Region, talked to Yao Kegui: "You should be mentally prepared, and you may be transferred to the commander to do secretarial work after a while."
After learning the news, Yao Kegui was both excited and nervous. Excited, I can finally meet General Han Xianchu and work beside him. Nervously, I don't know if I can do this job well.
To this end, Yao Kegui replied: "In terms of qualifications, ability and level, I am not enough, and I am afraid it is difficult to shoulder this heavy responsibility."
Hearing Yao Kegui's refusal, Minister Yu smiled and said, "You don't have to refuse any more. Go home and wait for the notice. " 1967 In the spring, Yao Kegui received a formal notice: he went to Commander Han to assist in the work, which was decided by the party organization after investigation and understanding, and he must obey the organizational arrangement!
In this way, Yao Kegui began to work beside General Han Xianchu for 20 years.
During these 20 years, Yao Kegui followed Han Xianchu to the grass roots, learned about people's lives, and drafted manuscripts for Commander Han. During these 20 years, Commander Han's belief in serving the people also deeply influenced Yao Kegui who worked beside him.
General Han Xianchu served as deputy chief of staff of the People's Liberation Army in February 1954, and was later transferred to the front line of Fujian by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, serving as commander of Fuzhou Military Region, second secretary of Party Committee and member of the Standing Committee of Fujian Provincial Committee.
After arriving in Fuzhou, Commander Han began to concentrate on preparing for war. He traveled all over the army, frontier positions, island posts, beaches and rear facilities. General Han Xianchu did a lot of investigation and study when he worked out the combat readiness plan, and listened to the opinions of leading comrades of various units.
Although the work was tense at that time, the overall social situation was running smoothly except for the east coast of the Taiwan Province Strait.
However, since 1966, the whole situation has changed greatly, and Han Xianchu was appointed as the secretary of Fujian Provincial Party Committee.
1967 10, Han Xianchu met with leading cadres of Fujian province in Jingxi Hotel. Soon after, under the decision of the Central Committee, Fujian Revolutionary Committee was formally established.
Han Xianchu was appointed director of the Provincial Revolutionary Committee and head of the core group of the provincial party committee. After receiving the appointment from the Central Committee, Han Xianchu decided to shoulder this heavy responsibility, shift his main energy to Fujian's economic construction and social development, stand on self-reliance and seek welfare for the people.
Han Xianchu once said: "Take off a few layers of skin and change the face of Fujian."
In order to do a good job in economic construction and promote social development, in Han Xianchu's view, we should first do a good job of investigation and find out the "family background", so as to suit the remedy to the case!
At that time, except for some meetings that had to be held, Han Xianchu spent most of his time without pomp, went deep into the actual investigation and study at the grassroots level, and attached great importance to the first-hand situation.
In terms of work, Han Xianchu generally doesn't arrange where he can't see or what he can't see, but goes to the grassroots to see the real situation of the people in person.
According to General Han Xianchu's secretary Yao Kegui:
General Han Xianchu often goes out to inspect at five or six o'clock in the morning, and asks Yao Kegui to inform the relevant person in charge to be present according to the inspected areas, units and problems to be dealt with.
Han Xianchu asked these people to patrol with him. First of all, he asked them to get in touch with reality and learn more about the grassroots. Second, some problems can be solved in time on the spot, not later; Third, bring style. Cadres should not always sit in the office for meetings and distribute documents, which will alienate them from the masses.
Regarding the difficulties and problems in economic work, Han Xianchu said: "These are mainly solved by developing the economy, diversifying and expanding production."
1970165438+1on the morning of 9 October, when listening to the report of the provincial work conference, Han Xianchu suggested that we should develop with different characteristics according to different situations, so as to develop diversified businesses and make people rich! The income of the people and the welfare of the masses should increase year by year in normal years.
In order to promote the development of Fujian native products, Han Xianchu took the opportunity to recommend Fujian native products to the main leaders of some major military regions and provinces he was familiar with when he held a meeting in the Central Committee.
First, send some free samples, such as Gutian cigarettes, Fuzhou and Xiamen candy; Then it was promoted in small quantities through the main places of the national military conference at that time (such as Jingxi Hotel).
After the promotion of Han Xianchu, the sales of Fujian native products have achieved good results. Of course, in the process of promoting local products, Han Xianchu also heard some opinions: candy is too sweet and the packaging is single; If only cigarettes had filters. ...
For these opinions, Han Xianchu also seriously considered. At the provincial work conference, Han Xianchu emphasized: "Developing native products has great benefits, but we should pay attention to quality control. If we can't do it ourselves, we can ask others for help. "
After that, the Provincial Department of Commerce organized personnel to study in Shanghai and seek classic help. Later, candy really improved, not so sweet and tired, and the packaging was more stylish.
Of course, in the process of work, Han Xianchu also attaches great importance to the opinions of the people. Han Xianchu emphasized on many occasions that we should pay attention to listening to the opinions of the people and understand what they care about.
1970 On May 24, Han Xianchu made a special point in his speech at the meeting of military and civilian cadres, "We should listen to different opinions and be good at mobilizing positive factors ..."
In the subsequent work, Han Xianchu always adhered to the belief of serving the people and did practical things for the people in a down-to-earth manner.
1973 65438+February 15. Notice of the Military Commission: The Chairman instructed the convening of a meeting of the Military Commission with the participation of commanders and political commissars of various military regions. 65438+February 65438+July, Commander Han Xianchu and Political Commissar Li Zhimin flew to Beijing by plane sent by Beijing and stayed at Jingxi Hotel.
The meeting of the Central Military Commission decided to transfer the commanders of major military regions such as General Han Xianchu and General Pidingjun to Lanzhou, and Pidingjun to Fuzhou.
12 On February 23rd, Han Xianchu and Li Zhimin returned to Fuzhou. 24, Li Zhimin conveyed the spirit of the military commission meeting. After learning this news, the army and local people came to visit General Han Xianchu in an endless stream.
Yao Kegui followed him to Lanzhou.
As the secretary of General Han Xianchu, Yao Kegui naturally knows where the general is and where he is.
1973 1 973 On February 31day, Lanzhou Military Region held a meeting of cadres at or above the division level to arrange the work in the first quarter of 1974. At this meeting, Han Xianchu made a speech, which was his first speech in his new unit.
When Han Xianchu speaks, he seldom uses words, never talks about rhetoric, and always goes straight to the point.
When Han Xianchu was transferred to the Lanzhou Military Region, he was over sixty years old, with weak constitution and poor gastrointestinal function. But for these, Han Xianchu didn't care, but devoted himself to the planning and grasping of combat readiness training.
At that time, the border defense line of the military region was more than 800 kilometers. In order to see the terrain clearly, the troops were clearly touched. Han Xianchu has been in the Lanzhou Military Region for 6 years, with a long time and a wide range, and visited the troops under this terrain 13 times.
From the front to the depth, from the front to the second line and the rear, he traveled all over the frontier and all the troops, and explored many strategic places such as Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningxia.
General Han Xianchu likes on-the-spot investigation, investigation and study, and Yao Kegui naturally never leaves. Working beside Han Xianchu, Yao Kegui's writing task is very heavy.
From 1969 to 1984, Yao Kegui * * * drafted more than 200 articles, about 1 15000 words, of which 15000 words were written in cooperation with others.
You know, it wasn't so convenient then as it is now. Those manuscripts were written in strokes.
Whenever recalling these past events, Yao Kegui will sigh: "I learned a lot from Commander Han!"
When he was in Lanzhou Military Region, Yao Kegui had a deep memory of General Han Xianchu's first frontier defense.
According to Yao Kegui's memory, when he walked along the border for the first time, General Han Xianchu said all the way that he gave many valuable suggestions to the local garrison troops.
For example, Han Xianchu said when listening to the report on military geography from the army: "You should mark the newly built railways, highways, new villages, factories and other places where the terrain has changed on the map. The map should be a whole and can be seen coherently. This can't be traffic, that is fortifications. "
Of course, General Han Xianchu also attaches great importance to the living conditions of grass-roots officers and soldiers!
1977 in September, Han Xianchu and Xiao Hua, the newly appointed political commissar, began to inspect the troops. Both Han Xianchu and Xiaohua attach great importance to the situation of grass-roots officers and soldiers. No matter where you visit, you will definitely go deep into the grass-roots units such as squadrons, platoons, outposts, militia points, etc., and learn about the situation of the troops and the reflections of different personnel through on-the-spot visits, sending people to understand, and individual conversations.
According to the size of arms, Han Xianchu and others will meet with cadres at or above the platoon level, company level, regiment level and division level in various places. When family members come to the team, they will also visit and greet their families at their homes.
In the process of leaving the army, Han Xianchu and Xiao Hua also learned about the problems faced by frontline officers and men.
Therefore, Han Xianchu said at the meeting: "When leading troops, we should love soldiers and be strict with them. What is produced should be used on the cutting edge to subsidize the company soldiers and the wounded and sick. We should advocate hard work, seek truth from facts, be honest, and never tell lies and empty words ... "
Since the two heads, Han and Xiao, went deep into the grass-roots units, except for one leader of the military region who took turns to preside over the work at home, all other leading cadres left the army in stages and in batches, and a large number of government cadres also went to the grass-roots units to investigate and study.
This behavior of Lanzhou Military Region naturally attracted the attention of the Central Military Commission. 1on may 7, 978, Luo Ruiqing, secretary general of the central military commission, called Han Xianchu: "it's rare for you to come down and inspect the whole army. Write a report to the Central Military Commission. "
On May 25th, commander Han and political commissar Xiao wrote a report to the Central Military Commission. Soon, according to the decision of the Central Military Commission, this report was forwarded to various military regions, services and arms, headquarters and other units.
The documents of the Military Commission pointed out that the Lanzhou Military Region ... has achieved initial results in grasping the outline and managing the army, and the appearance of the troops has obviously changed. The situation is very gratifying.
During his tenure in the Lanzhou Military Region, Han Xianchu also kept in mind what Chairman Mao said in the exchange of eight generals, and all civil and military officials should learn some literature. 1June, 979, at the initiative of him and Xiao Hua, the military region negotiated with Lanzhou University, invited professors of Chinese Department to the small auditorium of the military region, and taught the leaders of the military region and the cadres of the headquarters books such as An Introduction to Literature in the Pre-Qin and Han Dynasties.
In a word, Han Xianchu's working ability is recognized by the CPC Central Committee. So Han Xianchu was transferred from 1979 to the Standing Committee of the Military Commission until February!
Han Xianchu in his later years.
After Han Xianchu was transferred to Beijing, he studied and promoted reform and urged the Central Military Commission to simplify administration.
1982 65438+1October 14. Han Xianchu made a speech at the meeting in the Political Bureau of the Central Committee to discuss the streamlining plan: "This time, we must make up our minds to streamline, but the pace should be steady. I am a clown, but I advocate being more careful and not too hasty. First up, then down, first central and then local, first tear down the temple and then reduce the number of people, first take the mass line ... "
After Han Xianchu was transferred to Beijing, especially after 1983, he basically took a back seat.
Han Xianchu's residence is paved with concrete. After reading it, he said, "This is no good. We want to plant trees." He asked the staff to dig three tree pits on both sides of the concrete floor in front of his residence and plant six five-needle pines. Later, some other trees were planted.
Some staff suggested that flowers could be planted, but General Han Xianchu did not accept it. Instead, he smiled and said, "It takes time to collect medicine, and it takes time. I still like woody plants. "
In the southwest of General Han Xianchu's mansion, near the courtyard wall, there is a vacant lot about 2 minutes, and he took a fancy to a good "private plot". To this end, he personally planned and selected seeds, and guided and led the guards to tidy up the land and plant some vegetables and fruits on it.
His vegetables and fruits never use pesticides and fertilizers, and they are really green vegetables.
Whenever the harvest season comes and the fruits of labor appear in front of us, General Han Xianchu will be very happy, which is difficult for others to share.
Sometimes, when Han Xianchu visits his old comrades in the military region, he will pick some vegetables he grows to "recommend" his green environmental protection concept.
Whenever Yao Kegui comes home from work, General Han Xianchu will tell him: "Pick something to eat and take it back to the station (Yao Kegui's wife calls gmcc)!"
Later, with the growth of General Han Xianchu's age, his physical condition also went from bad to worse.
You know, during the war of more than 20 years, General Han Xianchu always had a full meal with an empty stomach, which also caused incurable damage to his digestive system.
Yao Kegui stayed with Han Xianchu during his illness.
During his convalescence in Wuhan, Han Xianchu not only made good medical arrangements, but also enriched General Han's health care, distracted his attention from the disease and eased his impatience.
So the staff arranged calligraphy activities for him, and General Han Xianchu was very interested in calligraphy.
When I was young, I studied in a private school for two years, learning calligraphy with pen and ink. From then on, he became interested in Chinese calligraphy. After joining the revolution, I didn't have enough time to practice calligraphy.
When he was recuperating, he became interested in writing Chinese calligraphy and couldn't put it down. He once said to the staff around him: "Comrade Chen Yun suggested that primary schools should attach importance to the training of calligraphy and inherit and carry forward the excellent heritage of the motherland, which is a powerful promotion for practicing calligraphy."
During his convalescence in Wuhan, Han Xianchu still missed his secretary Yao Kegui who had been with him for many years.
1986 65438+1October 15, Han Xianchu personally called Yao Kegui and asked him to go to Wuhan for the New Year. On this matter, Yao Kegui once recalled: "On October 29th, 65438 1, he personally called me and asked me to go to Wuhan on February 29th1. I realized that this may be his last Spring Festival or his last birthday. "
On February 1 day, Yao Kegui arrived in Wuhan smoothly. In order to congratulate him on his 73rd birthday and pray for his early recovery, Yao Kegui specially made a big cake.
At noon on February 2nd, many * * * got together to celebrate the birthday of Commander Han, and Yao Kegui toasted all the guests instead of Han Xianchu. This Spring Festival, Han Xianchu came to Yao Kegui's room privately on crutches and sighed: "You have been with me for so many years, you are a secretary, you are a staff officer and you are an assistant. I have delayed you. "
Hearing this, Yao Kegui began to choke: "Chief, don't say that. I'm lucky to work by your side ... "Later, Han Xianchu asked Yao Kegui to accompany him for a walk outside.
Walking, Han Xianchu said, "I am old and very ill. I can't keep you any longer. " Soon, General Han Xianchu personally wrote to Yu and Yang Dezhi and put forward suggestions to solve Yao Kegui's work arrangement.
This incident left a deep memory for Yao Kegui!
19861013, General Han Xianchu died in Beijing at the age of 73!
Throughout general Han Xianchu's life, he has always firmly adhered to the concept of serving the people and worked for the welfare of the people in a down-to-earth manner.
Although the general has been dead for 35 years, his story has always been remembered by the people!
