Foreword
Chairman Mao is not only a great statesman, strategist, theorist, military strategist, poet, and calligrapher, but also a master of humor. Chairman Mao's humor is not only reflected in his writings and speeches, but also in his daily conversations and receptions.
Chairman Mao
Chairman Mao who is usually in Zhongnanhai is not solemn or steady. He likes to shake his shoulders and twist his waist, dance with his hands, and walk like an old man in the park. Anyone familiar with Chairman's life knows that he often works for more than ten hours, and his whole body becomes stiff at the end of a day. When he walks, he moves his whole body. This is also Chairman Mao's "special exercise".
Whenever he comes out from the office and bedroom of chrysanthemum library to attend a meeting, Chairman Mao has to shake his shoulders and twist his waist and walk happily in the short distance of a few hundred meters. The chairman will change to solemn and steady steps.
When he walked happily, he had to breathe loudly. Some new guards were stunned when they saw Chairman Mao's movement. A leader in sex.
Whenever this time, Chairman Mao will always give the guard a look and say: "What are you stupefied? I am also a man Mao Zedong!
: Chairman Mao Yanan asks the guard : "Has the guest gone?
And Chairman Mao in the war, when he encountered critical moments, often reflected his revolutionary optimism.Use your confidence to boost the morale of the whole army.
In March 1947, the Kuomintang authorities assembled a force of 250,000 troops in the northwest region, under the command of Hu Zongnan , in order to destroy our party, political, and military command center.
During the Yan'an defense war, Hu Zongnan sent dozens of planes to bomb Wangjiaping, the central location, and several incendiary bombs were dropped in front of Mao Zedong’s door. The front was burning, and the guards rushed into the smoky cave dwelling of Chairman Mao, only to see Chairman Mao calmly there looking at the battle map attentively.
Chairman Mao and Mao Anying in Wangjiaping, Yan'an
The guards looked at Chairman Mao and did not dare to say anything. Chairman Mao said without raising his head: "Are the guests gone?"
The guards were stunned and said : "Chairman, what guest?"
Chairman Mao raised his hand, pointed to the sky and said: "Span strong 27strong " Throwing the pen in the hand onto the map: "It's annoying and disgusting!"
When the guards heard Chairman Mao's words, they snorted, and the tension disappeared.
At this moment, another guard walked in with a piece of shrapnel from outside the door and handed it to Chairman Mao. : "Chairman,Now, look, the bomb shrapnel dropped by the Kuomintang plane is right at the door."
Chairman Mao took it and slapped it twice with his hands, and said : "Yes, good steel." , We are rich, this can make two good kitchen knives!
After speaking, the people in the room burst into laughter.
Chairman Mao and fellow villagers in northern Shaanxi
These words would be difficult to understand if it weren’t for the locals. The humorous, coupled with Chairman Mao’s usual expression of speaking and the characteristic 韶山 accent, the effect is even stronger, bringing a touch of relaxation and joy to everyone in the tense battle.
When moved to northern Shaanxi, it moved from Xiaohe Village. Because the guide got lost, he took the troops to a bare mountain. Just after reaching the mountainside, a heavy rain fell suddenly. There were enemy troops moving under the mountain, and guns were still there from time to time. The sound rang. The comrades were cold, hungry, and nervous, for fear of being discovered by the enemy, so they surrounded Chairman Mao tightly. Chairman Mao laughed and said: "Ha, this is really a copper wall and an iron wall, impenetrable by wind or rain. what!
Chairman Mao said to himself: "Old friend, I'm sorry,"
Chairman Mao is a person who can’t stay idle. Le.
when going down the mountain,Encountered the rapids, the troops began to build pontoon bridges. Just when the bridge was being built, I was chased by the Kuomintang's chasing soldiers, and rumbling explosions sounded around.
Chairman Mao fought in northern Shaanxi
Just at this very moment, when a battle was about to happen, Chairman Mao sat down on a large bluestone to look at the military map, drawing on it with a pen, as if That map is a chess board full of chess pieces. The opposite is and Chiang Kai-shek . Each stroke of Chairman Mao is like a move. He said to Chiang Kai-shek, who was sitting on the opposite side of his imagination, : "I'm sorry. Ah, old friend, I was a bit harder at this move. I'm really sorry for you~"
The soldier next to the People's Liberation Army heard Chairman Mao's words and couldn't help but laugh.
After a fierce battle, the chairman and the troops escaped from the enemy's pursuit and came to a family home in a small village called Tianjiawan. Chairman Mao and more than a dozen commanders and soldiers squeezed into a small cave to rest. The landlord’s wife said uncomfortably: "This cave is too small, the place is too small, sorry for the chief!"
Chairman Mao
Chairman Mao humorously learned the words of his sister-in-law and responded : "We have too many teams and too many people, so I'm sorry for my sister-in-law!"
30strong : The fourth comrade,Why are your teeth so dark?In difficult times, Chairman Mao always encourages everyone to overcome difficulties through his unique humor.
Because of Hu Zongnan's military harassment in northern Shaanxi, he also blocked my base economically. All food and medicines are strictly controlled, which has led to an extreme shortage of food in our base areas. From Chairman Mao to the groom, I had to eat black beans all at once in order to fill my stomach.
When Chairman Mao wrote the "Chinese People's Liberation Army Manifesto", because he was eating black beans and he was uplifting, he fart so that he could not sit down. Chairman Mao shook his head, put out the cigarette, stood up and opened the curtain, with his hands behind his back. Take a walk in the yard.
The guard soldier Zhu Laosi was standing guard at the door. He may have smoked and his teeth were a little black. Normally, he would grin no matter who he saw, and two rows of black teeth would appear when he grinned.
Chairman Mao is in Yan'an
Chairman Mao saw Zhu Lao Sichao grinning, and said seriously : "Oh, why are your fourth comrades so black?" Ah, eat black beans."
Zhu Laosi was a little overwhelmed by Chairman Mao's question. He just grinned, accidentally "poof~" and let go. Chairman Mao nodded. Say: "No, oh, it’s just fine."
At this point, Zhu Laoshi couldn’t help it. He grabbed the back of his neck and laughed slyly. Everyone in the yard rested too. Laughing.
Chairman Mao also laughed with everyone, then changed the conversation and said to everyone: "We only have a short-term difficulty in eating black beans. Northern Shaanxi is such a big place. Can fill his own stomach, now Chiang Kai-shek has sent hundreds of thousands of people to eat and drink, and food is more difficult? But, it doesn’t matter, we must overcome this difficulty, and in a few months, we won’t have to. Eat black beans here, go to the enemy to eat"
Chairman Mao in Yan'an
Chairman Mao stared at Old Four Zhu and asked indignantly: , , you said, "Span4span , " , Don’t we just allow them to eat ours, we won’t eat him?"
Zhu nodded, and after holding back for a long time, he squeezed a vicious sentence from his teeth: "The chairman said it." Yes, we will crush him!"
After speaking, everyone laughed happily again.
After the founding of the People’s Republic of China, the country had a difficult period of three years. Chairman Mao took the lead in giving up his favorite braised pork. When the green and yellow were not picked up, he didn’t eat a grain of food for several days, but only ate. Spinach, purslane and other wild vegetables.
One day, when a health care doctor was doing a massage for Chairman Mao, he found that Chairman Mao’s ankle and calf bones were there, and he could not get up when he pressed down to a pit. Obviously, Chairman Mao's calf is swollen due to lack of nutrition.
The health care doctor persuaded: "Chairman, you are too nutritious. Look..."
Chairman Mao interrupted the doctor's words, smiled and said: "What span strong_span4? My ankles are gaining weight, and you still said that I lack nutrition."
The health care doctor reluctantly said: "Chairman, you will have fun in hardship..."
It is to relieve some pressure and boost morale of the people around him, but when it comes to victory, Chairman Mao will be more humorous.
What is the "Four King Kong", I don’t think it is called a pickle jar
August 1947, Northwest Field Army commander Peng Dehuai led the eight brigades of the field army to an ambush in Shajiadian, Yulin The 36th Division was reorganized by the Kuomintang. On the evening of August 20, the 36th division of the enemy reorganized was completely annihilated. After this campaign, the situation in the northwest was fundamentally reversed, which provided a favorable situation for our army to cross the Yellow River east.
Yan'an Defense War
When the news of the victory of the battle reached Chairman Mao, Chairman Mao first showed no joy, but repeatedly sighed and said: The way, Hu Zongnan, what we think, he will do."
After speaking,Haha laughed, the people around heard that Chairman Mao was making Hu Zongnan happy, and laughed.
Chairman Mao stretched out his hand to let everyone be quiet, then he squeezed his fingers and said: "Look at Qinghuabian, Yangmahe, Panlong, and Shajiadian. We will eat them for the victories in these few battles. With the strength of six or seven brigades, Hu Zongnan said he didn’t have the Four King Kong?” Chairman Mao shook his head, “I think their'king Kong' is not as good as the pickle jars of the common people.” laughing out loud.
Chairman Mao moved to northern Shaanxi
"They had four cylinders, and we broke three of them: He Qi, Liu Ziqi, and Li Kungang. Now there is one cylinder left. What is it called..."
Chairman Mao’s humorous words made the meeting room lively, and a comrade behind shouted: "Chairman, Li Riji!"
Mao Zedong bit his lip and pretended to think: "That's right, it's Li Erji! This time we didn't catch him. We counted him a good luck. Next time, maybe we won't be able to catch him. We will count him a good luck. The third time he will definitely not run. !"
bursts of laughter broke out in the venue. Chairman Mao was like a humorist standing on the podium, sending the joy of victory to more people.
Take pictures if it makes sense
Chairman Mao has a very vivid picture,It is to see the photos of Nanjing's liberation victory in the pavilion of the Shuangqing Villa in Beiping. After the photographer finished taking this photo, he looked up and saw the staff around him hesitatingly trying to talk to himself.
Chairman Mao asked the photographer: "Why did you take this photo for me?"
The photographer said, "Nanjing has been liberated, how meaningful is it?" In Shuangqing Villa
Chairman Mao looked at the staff around him and said: "Oh, it makes sense to take pictures, do you all think it makes sense?"
Saying: "meaningful"
Everyone happily said: "Give us a photo with the chairman." Chairman Mao walked out of the pavilion and took a photo with the staff present.
In February 1953, Chairman Mao boarded the navy "Yangtze River" for inspection in Wuhan. When he met with the navy officers and soldiers, Chairman Mao suddenly stood in front of a small black and thin soldier, lovingly. Looking at the soldier, he asked softly: "Are you hungry?"
The little soldier was taken aback first, and Chairman Mao laughed first. The soldier couldn't help but laughed thinking that he was dark and thin. With his smile, the soldiers around him also laughed, and the atmosphere suddenly became alive.
Silver Bridge,You are already great
On May 31, 1956, 63-year-old Chairman Mao came to Wuhan and proposed the idea of swimming in the Yangtze River. While changing his swimming trunks, Chairman Mao looked at the guardian Li Yinqiao while changing his clothes. span4span.
Chairman Mao said solemnly: "Yinqiao, you are already greater, and you will be greater than me as you develop." Li Yinqiao looked at Chairman Mao with a puzzled face, with a little thought in his heart. Uneasy, I don't understand what Chairman Mao means by "great".
Chairman Mao also noticed the puzzlement in Li Yinqiao’s eyes, so he patted Li Yinqiao’s belly wittily.
Chairman Mao and Li Yinqiao
When he heard the chairman say that he said that, Li Yinqiao also recovered his stomach. Chairman Mao patted him on the shoulder again: , Don’t hunch back, you will catch up with me like this."
Li Yinqiao hurriedly raised his chest and abdomen and said: “I’m getting older without knowing it, but I can’t make the chairman’s contribution.”
Chairman Mao heard what Li Yinqiao said: "You are less than 30 years old,Why are you discouraged, I am old, you can have a bright future. After Chairman Mao finished speaking, he went out and took a swim in the Yangtze River. There was a chance that Li Yinqiao and a few guards used Chairman Mao to take a walk. Moved the big sofa in his study to another room. They tried several times but couldn't move out, so they had to put it back. After Chairman Mao went home, he saw that the sofa was still in the same place. Asked: "Why didn't it move out? " guard Feng Yaosong said: "Chairman, this door is too small, we can't move out, or just stay in the house." Chairman Mao glanced at the sofa and then looked at the guard. Guys, say thoughtfully: "Everyone, I have always had one thing I can’t figure out." Because Chairman Mao usually discusses the country’s major policies with experts, scholars and central leaders, he is used to guards The soldiers were asked for their opinions there, and the soldiers were willing to express their views in front of the chairman. So the soldiers asked: "What's the matter, chairman" Chairman Mao and the guardian Zhou Fuming The house or the sofa first
Chairman Mao frowned and said: "Look,Did you build this house first and then move to the sofa? Or is the house built after setting up the sofa?
Feng Yaosong and the other guards blushed because it was Chairman Mao who instructed them not to use their heads when encountering things. Later, after everyone’s concerted efforts, they finally moved the sofa out.
Insoles are also coming to "revolution"
Chairman Mao once used humor to resolve his embarrassment.
During the Lushan Conference in 1961, at a dance party, Chairman Mao returned to his seat after dancing a dance. At that time, he did not notice that one of his white insoles leaked out of the shoes. After seeing the staff, the staff said: "Chairman, your insoles..." Chairman Mao looked down and couldn't help but smiled and said:" The insole is always pressed by the sole of the foot, and there is no light. It must be a revolution! "After speaking, the head of the Central Committee and Chairman Mao present laughed.
In diplomacy, Chairman Mao used his unique humor to let foreign guests appreciate the leadership style of the great eastern countries.

"
Chairman Mao and Kissinger
