Brief introduction to Wang Jiaxiang

Wang Jiaxiang (1906-1974), formerly known as Jiaxiang, also known as Jiaqiang. Hou'an village, Jing County, Anhui Province. After primary school in my hometown, I went to church middle school. In 1925, he went to Shanghai to join the high school attached to Shanghai University, where he joined the Communist Youth League. In October of the same year, Wang Jiaxiang went to the Soviet Union to study in Sun Yat sen University and red Professor College in Moscow. In 1928, he was transferred from the League to the party. During his stay in the Soviet Union, he had an in-depth study of Marxism Leninism. Because he did not take part in the actual work within the party, he once supported Wang Ming's dogmatism and was known as one of the "28 and a half Bolsheviks". However, he is decent and despises small group activities. After returning to China in 1930, he served as a director of the Propaganda Department of the CPC Central Committee, and then as Secretary General of the party newspaper Committee. In April 1931, Wang Jiaxiang went to the Central Soviet Area as director of the General Political Department of the Red Army. In November of the same year, he served as vice chairman of the Military Commission and member of the people's Committee for foreign affairs of the Soviet Republic of China (equivalent to foreign minister). In April 1933, when he was hit by an air raid, he was blown through his intestines. Without anesthetic, he endured severe pain and underwent eight hours of operation. At that time, he was said to be better than Guan Gong's curettage. Because the shrapnel could not be removed, conservative treatment was adopted. In January of the following year, he was elected as an alternate member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee. In the autumn of the same year, he took part in the long march with a tube through his abdomen and a stretcher. At the Zunyi Meeting in January 1935, he proposed that Mao Zedong should be the leader of the party and the Red Army. Later, Mao Zedong praised this "key vote" many times. After the Zunyi Meeting, Wang Jiaxiang, Mao Zedong and Zhou Enlai formed a three member central military group to command the whole army. When he crossed the snow mountain and grassland, his intestines were purulent and he even crawled out of the Ascaris lumbricoides. After arriving in Northern Shaanxi, he was secretly sent to Shanghai for treatment due to the deterioration of his injury. In the summer of 1937, he transferred to Moscow for treatment and served as the representative of the Chinese Communist Party to the Communist International. In August of the next year, he returned to Yan'an as vice chairman of the Central Military Commission and director of the General Political Department of the Eighth Route Army. In 1944, he was unable to work because of the deterioration of the wound. In 1946, he was sent to the Soviet Union again for treatment. In 1947, Wang Jiaxiang returned to the northeast liberated area and became the director of urban engineering of the Northeast Bureau. In 1949, he served as the first ambassador of new China to the Soviet Union. In 1951, he returned to China and served as the Minister of the Foreign Liaison Department of the CPC Central Committee. In 1956, he was elected as the Secretary of the Secretariat of the CPC Central Committee. For decades, Wang Jiaxiang always worked with a hot water bag in his abdomen. After liberation, he put forward many valuable opinions. In 1958, during the great leap forward, he refused to go along with the wind. At the beginning of 1962, he boldly suggested that the excessive amount of foreign aid should be changed and that we should "act according to our ability" and that we should not make enemies on all sides in the international struggle. These views were criticized as "three harmonies and one less" by Kang Sheng and others (that is, the so-called "three harmonies and one less aid to the emperor and the world revolution"). Because Mao Zedong repeatedly affirmed his historical achievements, he was elected as a member of the CPC Central Committee at the party's 10th National Congress in 1973. Before going to bed on January 25, 1974, Wang Jiaxiang learned that Jiang Qing and others were going to launch the campaign of "criticizing Lin and Confucius". He had a premonition that the party and the country would suffer a new disaster again and was very worried. The next morning, when his wife Zhu Zhongli called him to get up, she found that he was cold all over. He was 68 years old.
