From 65438 to 0950, Chen Guang served as deputy commander of Guangdong Military Region and commander of Guangzhou Garrison. Chen Guang was criticized by Ye Jianying, secretary of the Guangdong Branch of the Communist Party of China and commander of the Guangdong Military Region, for enrolling and establishing a school for children of fellow villagers in Hunan without the approval of his superiors.
He refused to accept it and contradicted Ye, who decided that his mistake was privately-built armed forces and reported it to the Central South Bureau of the CPC, the Fourth Field and the General Political Department. Luo Ronghuan, director of the General Political Department, instructed Chen Guang to be dismissed and detained.
Chen Guang was removed from his post and sent to Wuhan for detention. After being detained, Chen Guang was detained for a long time for lack of understanding and even confrontation about his mistakes, and then went insane. 1On June 7, 954, Chen Guang set himself on fire in Wuhan.

From March 27th to April 5th, 1949, the Fourth Field Army held a meeting of senior cadres in kuya Building, Chaoyangmen, Beiping to convey the spirit of the Second Plenary Session of the Seventh Central Committee.
Lin Biao made a report on unity at the meeting, in which he focused on opposing complacency and strengthening collective leadership. He pointed out: individual heroism only sees the great role of individuals, but fails to see the role of superiors and subordinates and peers, which is supercilious.
We only pretend to be one person and only see our noses, especially in today's victory. If we don't be vigilant and pretend to be heroes, we are most likely to be proud.
In his speech, Lin Biao criticized Chen Guang as a typical example of pride. Strong-willed Chen Guang couldn't accept it and immediately got up and left the meeting. After that, Chen Guang was once depressed.
1June, 950 served as deputy commander of Guangdong Military Region and commander of Guangzhou Garrison. This is an important position. He happily went to Guangzhou to take office, but he lacked due understanding and necessary ideological preparation for the new environment and new tasks.
After Chen Guang took office, under the leadership of Ye Jianying, then the first secretary of South China Branch and commander and political commissar of Guangdong Military Region, he was responsible for fighting bandits, maintaining social order and stabilizing the market.
Close to Hongkong, Macau and overseas, Guangzhou is the southern outpost of China. In particular, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China decided to take Guangzhou as the base of secret struggle, set up secret networks in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, collect intelligence, and break the economic blockade under the cover of engaging in commercial trade.
At that time, the central government clearly stipulated that the intelligence work in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan had a set of strict organizational procedures and disciplines. Ye Jianying has rich experience in this field and is in charge of the overall situation.
However, Chen Guang's subjectivism, simplification and carelessness have caused some serious mistakes. In his hometown of Yizhang, Hunan, some relatives and friends admire him very much, and some of them are connected with military figures in Hainan Island.
Chen Guang wants to rebel against the national army on Hainan Island through them. At the same time, in violation of the cadre policy and relevant regulations, he recruited relatives and educated youth from his hometown to Guangzhou, held training courses, and sent people to Hong Kong for activities and business.
Chen Guang acted without Ye Jianying's consent, which is not allowed by the discipline of secret work. Ye Jianying talked to him personally and advised him to recognize and correct his mistakes.
But Chen Guangyou is seriously hostile. When Ye Shuai talked with him, they shook hands and exchanged greetings. The atmosphere was harmonious, but in the end, they quarreled and even slapped the table, and the conversation had to break up.
Later, at the organizational life meeting of the Guangdong Military Region Party Committee, everyone continued to criticize its mistakes, and Chen Guang lost his temper again. Ye Shuai said at that time: Chen Guang, you are a senior party cadre and an old comrade, so you should always talk about organizational principles.
Chen Guang said: I can't accept unprincipled criticism, and neither side will give in. In view of Chen Guang's mistake and contradictory attitude, the Disciplinary Inspection Committee of the South China Branch of the Communist Party of China reported to the Central Committee on July 1950, giving him the punishment of dismissing his post and expelling him from the Party.
