After my death, I only made one request, that is, Deng Xiaoping would preside over the memorial service, otherwise I would never enter Babaoshan and let my son throw my body into the wilderness.

This is the so-called will request of Marshal Liu Bocheng to Comrade Hua Guofeng in October 1976 that has been widely circulated a few years ago. Regarding this rumor, Marshal Liu Bocheng’s eldest son, Comrade Liu Taixing, was published on July 20, 2006. In the article "Reminiscences of Past Events Derived from Correcting Several Historical Facts" published in the "People's Political Consultative Conference" on Japan, it has been clearly pointed out:

The only request made by Liu Bocheng before his death is "Deng Xiaoping to preside over my memorial service." One thing. Everyone knows that Comrade Liu Bocheng passed away in 301 Hospital. Before his death, the question of who would be the host of the memorial service was not raised. (Note 1)

However, the author recently discovered that similar rumors have revived. For example, the picture of It is a rumor that Liu Bocheng told Hua Guofeng that Deng Xiaoping should preside over the funeral, otherwise he would not enter the Babao Mountain. - DayDayNews

was cut from the headline “After the death of Liu Bocheng, Hua Guofeng relayed Liu Shuai’s last words to Deng Xiaoping, after Deng Xiaoping heard it. "In Silence"

Rumors such as these seem to praise the revolutionary friendship between Marshal Liu Bocheng and the older generation of proletarian revolutionaries from Comrade Deng Xiaoping. They are so-called "white lies", but they are actually directed at Marshal Liu Bocheng, etc. The slander of the older generation of proletarian revolutionaries!

You should know that Marshal Liu Bocheng is a great proletarian revolutionary, statesman, and military strategist. He is a marshal of the People’s Republic of China and the Chinese People’s Liberation Army. He is a loyal communist fighter and Marxist. He is Chairman Mao, Premier Zhou and President Zhu. The commander's comrade-in-arms, Marshal Liu Bocheng's life is a revolutionary and combat life!

So, how could Marshal Liu Bocheng say, "I just want Deng Xiaoping to preside over the memorial service, otherwise I will never enter Babaoshan, let my son throw my body into the wilderness, forget it," such words without revolutionary spirit! In fact, Marshal Liu Bocheng never said such a thing!

Also, did Comrade Hua Guofeng ever visit Marshal Liu Bocheng in October 1976? The author checked "Liu Bocheng Chronicles",Among them is the record of Marshal Liu Bocheng's activities in 1976: "In July, due to the Tangshan earthquake, he was transferred home from the PLA General Hospital for recuperation." Other than that, there were no major activities. At the same time, Comrade Hua Guofeng, then Chairman of the CPC Central Committee, Premier of the State Council, and Chairman of the Central Military Commission, was extremely busy in October of this year, and every move would affect the overall situation. If Comrade Hua Guofeng visited Marshal Liu Bocheng that month, how could it be anything? No record? (Note 2)

In short, the introduction to the life stories of the older generation of proletarian revolutionaries must be truthful from facts, and must strive for the content to be sourced everywhere, and The source is authoritative and credible. We must not believe in rumors, and we must not treat unfounded rumors as "historical facts." It is a rumor that Liu Bocheng told Hua Guofeng that Deng Xiaoping should preside over the funeral, otherwise he would not enter the Babao Mountain. - DayDayNews
