Mao Anying was born in October 1922. He is the eldest son of Mao Zedong and his wife Yang Kaihui. On November 25, 1950, Mao Anying, who accompanied the volunteers on an expedition to North Korea, died in the Dayudong area of North Korea because of the precious materials in the war room. He was 28 years old.
It was not until January 1951 that Chairman Mao learned that Mao Anying had died on the Korean battlefield. Mao Anying's wife Liu Siqi heard about the sad news in October 1953.
I don’t know when, there were even some rumors on the Internet that the reason why Mao Anying died in the Korean battlefield was entirely because he refused to listen to Peng Dehuai’s advice and insisted on lying on the bed in the war room. Sleep late. All his comrades hid in the air-raid shelters, and Mao Anying stayed on the ground alone before being killed by the U.S. artillery fire.
Facts have proved that Comrade Mao Anying is sticking to his job, and even in the danger of gunfire, he did not take a step back. Because it was too late to retreat to rescue the precious combat materials, he died heroically in a foreign country.
68 years later, his wife Liu Siqi publicly published a material that revealed the truth about the sacrifice of Comrade Mao Anying.
So, what are the unknown stories about Comrade Mao Anying before and after his sacrifice? After his sacrifice, what kind of life did his wife Liu Siqi lead?
During this period, a war movie called " Changjin Lake" was particularly popular. "Changjin Lake" was based on Resisting U.S. Aid Korea's second phase of the Changjin Lake battle_ span24span.
There is such a stage in the movie. When Mao Anying, played by the famous actor Huang Xuan , learned that Peng Dehuai was going to North Korea to support Kim Il Sung's brutal attack on UN Army , he decided to become the first volunteer.But Peng Dehuai rejected Mao Anying's request.
Mr. Peng’s reason is simple. Chairman Mao has only his two sons, Mao Anqing. Mao Anying was sick all the year round, and his body was left with hidden illnesses, and he was not willing to leave Chairman Mao on the battlefield.
Mao Anying said to Peng Dehuai immediately. : "Hundreds of thousands of people's children went to the battlefield with one order. I have any reason why Mao Anying should not go."
Finally, under the affirmation of Chairman Mao, Mao Anying went to the Korean battlefield. But I never thought that I would sleep in a foreign country ever since. Peng Dehuai, then commander-in-chief of the Chinese People's Volunteers, spent a day carefully writing a telegram of less than 100 words, reporting to the Party Central Committee the news of Comrade Mao Anying's tragic sacrifice.
This telegram was first received by Premier Zhou Enlai. At that time, the North Korean War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea entered a fierce stage, and Premier Zhou did not immediately tell Chairman Mao. It was not until early January 1951 that Chairman Mao learned that Mao Anying had died in the Korean battlefield in November 1950.
At that time, Chairman Mao heard the news, without saying a word, and sat on the sofa for more than 20 minutes. After a long time, Chairman Mao picked up the cigarette case on the coffee table and did not take the cigarette out of the cigarette case three times in a row. Upon seeing this, the staff on the side hurriedly helped Chairman Mao light a cigarette.
The room was so quiet that even the sound of a needle falling on the ground could be noticed. Chairman Mao was smoking a cigarette and his eyes suddenly turned red and moist and said: "Ah, why did he call him Mao Zedong's son. War, it's always necessary." It’s okay to have some casualties.”
It’s hard to imagine that Chairman Mao had to endure how much grief to say such a sentence. Chairman Mao led the entire Chinese people to liberation and was a great man whom everyone admired very much.
Despite these identities, Mao Anying is also Chairman Mao's most beloved eldest son. The most sorrowful thing in the world is that white-haired people give away black-haired people. For the party, for the people, and for the victory of the Korean campaign, Chairman Mao can only endure his grief, cheer up, and continue to work.
And as Comrade Mao Anying’s wife Liu Siqi,It was three years later, and the last to learn that her husband had died on the Korean battlefield.
Liu Siqi was born in 1930. His father Liu Qianchu joined the Communist Party of China in 1927 and became the head of the student movement of Yanjing University . His mother, Zhang Wenqiu, is a veteran Communist Party member who worked in secret underground work in Shanghai.
In 1929, Liu Qianchu and Zhang Wenqiu were arrested and imprisoned in an ambush in Shanghai. After the party organization rescued Zhang Wenqiu, he was betrayed by a traitor. For the sake of the overall situation, Comrade Liu Qianchu gave up resistance and went to justice on April 5, 1931.
In 1934, Zhang Wenqiu fell in love with the old Hunan Red Army Chen Zhenya and married, and brought his daughter Liu Siqi to live in Yan'an. In 1937, the new drama "Outcast" was staged in the auditorium of Yan'an Party School. This drama mainly tells the story of both parents who were revolutionaries were arrested and imprisoned, leaving only a seven-year-old girl, lonely and helpless.
The lead actor in the drama is Liu Siqi, who is only seven years old. After the performance, Mao Zedong's eyes were moist. Through this play, he remembered what happened to him, his wife Yang Kaihui, and his three sons Mao Anying, Mao Anying, and Mao Anlong.
Because Liu Siqi is generous, lively and cute, Chairman Mao noticed this little girl early in the morning. After learning that Liu Siqi was the daughter of Liu Qianchu and Zhang Wenqiu, Chairman Mao smiled and said to Liu Siqi : "You will be my daughter from now on, okay?"
Liu Siqi looked at the loving Chairman Mao and shouted A cry: " dad." Since then, Liu Siqi has forged an indissoluble bond with the big family of Chairman Mao.
At the end of 1939, due to the needs of the revolutionary struggle, Zhang Wenqiu and Chen Zhenya brought a family of children to the Soviet Union, and were stranded in Xinjiang on the way.
In May 1941, after Xinjiang warlord Sheng Shicai assassinated Chen Zhenya, he arrested and imprisoned other Communists working in Xinjiang and their families’ children.At only 11 years old, Liu Siqi spent five years in prison.
In July 1946, Liu Siqi and his mother Zhang Wenqiu were released from prison and returned to Yan'an. After returning to Yan'an, Chairman Mao often sent people to pick Liu Siqi to play in his home.
One day, Liu Siqi went to Chairman Mao's house to play with Li Ne, but it was a handsome guy who opened the door for Liu Siqi. Later, after Li Ne's introduction, he learned that this handsome guy was Chairman Mao's eldest son, Mao Anying, who had just returned from the Soviet Union.
Maybe Mao Anying and Liu Siqi did not realize that it was this accidental encounter that left a sweet and regrettable love story ever since.
Mao Anying had just returned from the Soviet Union at the time and wanted to help his father share the work pressure as much as possible. Chairman Mao let Mao Anying devote himself to the work of land reform across the country, go deep into the front line, eat and live with farmers and workers, and must not be arrogant.
At the same time, Liu Siqi evacuated Yan'an with the troops. Two years later, Liu Siqi and Mao Anying met again at Xibaipo . Liu Siqi was 18 years old at the time. After more than two years of revolutionary work, she became more mature.
Mao Anying is also an experienced revolutionary worker. Many years of studying in the Soviet Union have given Mao Anying the charm of a mature male.
When Liu Siqi and Mao Anying met again, the pair of revolutionary men and women had long been secretly in love, because the common revolutionary goal came together. In the end, the young couple overcame various difficulties and held their wedding in Zhongnanhai on October 15, 1949.
At the wedding, Chairman Mao was very happy. Chairman Mao, who doesn't drink often, toasted the old comrades who came to the banquet one after another. He also gave Mao Anying and Liu Siqi a military coat : "Anying wears it to work during the day, and you both cover it at night."
Mao Anying and Liu Siqi respect each other as guests after marriage, because they share the same three views and ideals. , Life is very happy and happy.
June 25, 1950 The Korean War broke out. In October of that year, North Korea’s supreme leader Kim Il Sung asked Chairman Mao to send troops to rescue him. After the Politburo of the Central Committee discussed the military situation day and night, the leaders of the Party and the state, including Chairman Mao and Premier Zhou, unanimously decided to send troops to assist North Korea.
On October 10, 1950, Mao Anying followed Peng Dehuai on a train to the Northeast for a field trip. Before leaving Beijing, Mao Anying had no time to say goodbye to his wife Liu Siqi.
On October 13, Mao Anying and Peng Dehuai returned to Beijing together to report to Chairman Mao. Just after returning to Beijing, Mao Anying learned that shortly after he left Beijing, Liu Siqi suffered from acute appendicitis and was hospitalized. Mao Anying rushed to the hospital to accompany Liu Siqi.
In the early morning of October 15, 1950, Mao Anying formally bid farewell to his wife Liu Siqi. At the time of parting, Mao Anying told Liu Siqi to study hard and visit his father Mao Zedong every Saturday to accompany his old man more.
Liu Siqi asked where Mao Anying is going? Mao Anying did not explain the actual situation to Liu Siqi, he just repeatedly said: "I will perform an important task."
Liu Siqi is so smart, she immediately figured out the truth, so she stopped asking more. The young couple reluctantly said goodbye until late at night. At dawn, Mao Anying got on his bicycle and left the hospital, rushed to the railway station, and officially entered the DPRK with Peng Dehuai.
In the morning of November 25, 1950, Mao Anying arrived in North Korea only 34 days, and died in order to rescue precious materials.
When the US plane left Dayu Cave (the place where Mao Anying died, the location of our volunteer army headquarters), the comrades in arms hurriedly cleaned the battlefield and looked for Mao Anying's body.
Because of the power of the American incendiary bomb, the body of Comrade Mao Anying was burned into a ball, completely unrecognizable. In the end, the comrades in arms found a watch that Mao Anying was wearing with him, and then they could identify his true identity.
In 1953, when Liu Siqi learned the news of Mao Anying's sacrifice, his heart was really devastated.Chairman Mao comforted Liu Siqi and said: "From now on, you will be my eldest daughter."
In order to get Liu Siqi out of the pain as soon as possible, Mao Zedong arranged for her to study at Moscow University. In the Spring Festival of 1959, Liu Siqi and his sister Shao Hua arrived in Dandong by train. After being contacted by the North Korean side, Liu Siqi went to the Chinese People's Volunteers Martyrs Cemetery , Hinocang County, South Ping An Road, to pay homage to Mao Anying.
When he saw Mao Anying's tombstone, Liu Siqi couldn't help his inner grief anymore. With a "plop", he knelt down in front of Mao Anying's tomb. Tears couldn't stop falling, and the tears were heartbreaking, and everyone present was moved by it.
After returning to China, Chairman Mao believed that Liu Siqi was still under 30 and should have a life of his own. Therefore, Chairman Mao learned from Liu Zhen, deputy commander of the PLA Air Force, that Air Force Academy , an instructor named Yang Maozhi, was honest and decent, and returned from studying in the Soviet Union.
Mao Zedong believes that Yang Maozhi and Liu Siqi are relatively good matches, and he intends to increase the chance of contact between Liu Siqi and Yang Maozhi. On June 30, 1961, Chairman Mao personally wrote a letter in which he called Liu Siqi his "daughter" and elaborated to her his ardent expectations for Mao Anying.
Through this letter, Liu Siqi opened his heart and nodded to agree to the relationship with Yang Maozhi. In February 1962, 32-year-old Liu Siqi remarried with Yang Maozhi. In November 1963, Liu Siqi gave birth to Yang Maozhi and named him Yang Xiaoying.
Even if he remarried and reorganized his family, Liu Siqi never forgot Mao Anying. Since the 1960s, she has visited North Korea many times to pay homage to Mao Anying.
In 2006, Liu Siqi finally came to Dayu-dong in North Korea (the place where Mao Anying died). This time, Liu Siqi came not only for himself, but also to fulfill Chairman Mao's last wish.
Because Chairman Mao once said to Liu Siqi : "If you have a chance in the future, you still have to go to the place where An Ying died.
Liu Siqi fulfilled her biggest wish in 55 years. North Korea held a grand welcoming ceremony. At the end of the ceremony, Liu Siqi sprinkled Mao’anying’s hometown’s Liuyang River wine in the Dayudong area, and brought it back. Take the soil of Dayu Cave as a permanent memorial.
In 2018, when Comrade Mao Anying died for 68 years, Liu Siqi released a lot of precious materials. Among them, there is a detailed history of Mao Anying’s death, including what was experienced at that time. Reminiscences written.
"Because of the military's combat command organization, no matter how urgent and dangerous the situation is, staff officers must stick to their posts and cannot leave their duties without authorization. We must promptly and promptly deal with all combat situations between the enemy and us 24 hours a day... Especially because the general attack of the second battle of is about to be launched, the staff members keep abreast of the dynamics of the enemy and the enemy. It is of utmost importance that it is a major matter about the outcome of the war. Comrade Mao Anying was in this situation and did not join us. leave the office.
The above is from the former director of the Chinese People’s Volunteer Army’s War Office, Cheng Pu, who personally wrote memoirs in 1972.
The publication of these materials completely penetrated the false news that Comrade Mao Anying was bombed to death because he was sleeping late. But in any case, Mao Anying left Liu Siqi forever.
Liu Siqi once said : "Whenever I miss Mao Anying, she is like a girl missing her lover in the distance.
Perhaps for Liu Siqi, Mao Anying is not only her husband, but also a mark in her life, which can never be erased. This is not about loyalty to marriage or empathy to love.
Liu Siqi and Mao Anying have similar life experiences and cultivated solid revolutionary feelings during the war. Mao Anying sacrificed precious lives for the revolutionary struggle.Liu Siqi was proud of him all his life and took him as an example.
This relationship will not go away with the years, it will only last forever.
Liu Siqi published this material not to prove Mao Anying, let alone to advertise Mao Anying's merits.
Regardless of Mao Anying's identity as Chairman Mao's son, he is also an ordinary volunteer soldier. In order to resist the US aggression and aid Korea, defend his home and the country, he contributed his precious life!
