In 1950, a blacksmith in Hubei saw a portrait of Chairman Mao and his eyes lit up: This is my brother

After the founding of New China, Chairman Mao has become the faith of countless Chinese people. People have posted portraits of the chairman in their homes and streets, expressing their gratitude and admiration to the chairman, but also firmly believe that under the leadership of the chairman, New China will get better and better. Many people who have not seen the chairman can also know the appearance of this great man through the portrait.

In 1950, when a blacksmith in Hubei saw the portrait of Chairman Mao, he became more familiar with it. He tried to think about it for a long time, and suddenly his eyes brightened: "This is my good brother Mao Runzhi!" found that the chairman was actually his former brother. The blacksmith was surprised and unbelievable. He sent a letter to Zhongnanhai in excitement, and then he actually received a reply from the chairman. How could the chairman know a blacksmith? What is the relationship between the two? Are they really close?

The blacksmith joins the army, he first met as a teenager

The story of Chairman Mao and the blacksmith starts from his youth. The blacksmith's name is Zhu Qisheng. When he was 12 years old, he went to a blacksmith shop in Hunan alone as an apprentice.

The teenagers are alone in a foreign land and cannot survive at all. Fortunately, after Zhu Qisheng has been wandering for a period of time, it happened to be conscripted by the army. In order to have food and housing, Zhu Qisheng went to register. This year, the recruitment of new recruits was not strict, so Zhu Qisheng enlisted in the army. In the beginning, he joined the army just to be able to get enough food. At that time, Zhu Qisheng did not expect that he would get acquainted with later great men and even become good brothers with each other.

After the Wuchang uprising broke out in 1911, 18-year-old Chairman Mao decided to join the revolutionary army, so he came to the Changsha Revolutionary Army to sign up, which happened to be the army that Zhu Qi was promoted to. But at this time, the army has become a revolutionary army, and the requirements for recruiting new recruits are much stricter, and acquaintances are required to guarantee it.

The like-minded partners that Chairman Mao knows are now the student army at most. He is the first to join the regular army, and there is no acquaintance who can guarantee it. But he was unwilling to give up. He had been discussing with the recruiting officer for a long time, and even attracted some people to watch. Zhu Qisheng came to understand the situation after seeing it.

Zhu Qisheng has been in the army for two years and has become a small squad leader. After talking with the chairman, he felt that this young boy was very upright, so he took the initiative to guarantee him. Allow the chairman to join the army smoothly.

Brothers in the barracks, we share adversity

The two people are more predestined. After joining the army, the chairman happened to be in the promotion of Zhu Qi, so Zhu Qisheng became an important figure in the chairman’s first entry into the army. He led the chairman to understand everything and taught the chairman. A lot of military experience and skills. Because the chairman is younger, Zhu Qisheng usually takes care of the chairman very much. He will give the chairman his cotton-padded clothes when it is cold, and he will share his braised pork with the chairman when it is rare to improve the food in the army.

In addition to Zhu Qisheng, deputy squad leader Peng Yousheng also takes care of the chairman. When the chairman was young, he already had the mind to serve the country and the people. Of course, he would not just accept the contributions of others. The chairman is a rare scholar in the army. He usually tells stories and reason to his comrades. If the other party is willing, the chairman Will also patiently teach them literacy, bookkeeping and other skills.

The chairman’s righteous spirit is also affecting the people around him. Once the chairman has met soldiers bullying the people, he did not hesitate to come forward and argue with each other directly. This kind of righteous behavior was very rare at the time, so the chairman was very respected in the military. A year later, Chairman Mao will leave the barracks and continue to study and engage in revolution. At this time, the chairman has established a deep friendship with the "blacksmith" Zhu Qisheng and the "miner" Peng Yousheng.

There is a world of difference, and the friendship is still

After Chairman Mao left the military camp, he has been busy with the revolutionary cause for many years, and it is difficult to have contact with his former comrades in arms. When he received Zhu Qisheng's letter in 1950, Chairman Mao instantly remembered his two good brothers. Although they have been separated for decades, the friendship established in the past is still there. Chairman sent Zhu Qisheng back to the letter, which was sent with the letter, and it was 200 yuan.

After knowing that the chairman still remembers himself, Zhu Qisheng was very moved and decided to go to Beijing to meet this good brother. Chairman Mao quickly received Zhu Qisheng. Although the two have not seen each other for many years, the atmosphere is not cold. They talked for a long time, recalling many things in the past and talking about the current living conditions. Chairman learned early in the letter that Zhu Qisheng now opened his own blacksmith shop,When Zhu Qisheng left Beijing this time, the chairman gave him another 500 yuan, which was regarded as supporting his business.

Zhu Qisheng learned writing, bookkeeping, and business from the chairman. He was no longer a small blacksmith who could only fight iron. The 500 yuan Zhu Qisheng did not refuse, so he used the money to open it. The factory has contributed its own strength to the country's economic development and has also given many workers stable jobs. After the factory expanded, Zhu Qisheng was praised by the chairman.

Conclusion:

Chairman Mao is the highest leader of the country, but he is approachable from beginning to end, putting the people first, in-depth understanding of the lives of the people, for the development of the country and the lives of the people It took a lifetime to improve. Chairman Mao is the leader of New China and a truly great leader of the people.
