Liu Bocheng joined the army from the 
Revolution period and participated in the war against Yuan , the war of protecting the law, the northern expedition, the Nanchang Uprising, Long March 2, the War of Resistance and the War of Liberation. He was a founding marshal who had experienced many battles and his heroic deeds have been sung to this day.
These are well-known deeds, but few people know about his personal feelings.
Liu Bocheng has three marriage relationships in his life, namely Cheng Yizhi, Wu Jingchun and Wang Ronghua. Today, I will focus on Liu Bocheng's last wife, who is also the wife who accompanied him through the path of life: Wang Ronghua .
Wang Ronghua was born in 1917 and was born in a poor family in a small village in Lu'an County, Anhui Province.
After she was born, her father named her "Ronghua" in the hope that he would not have to live such a poor life after growing up and enjoy a life of glory and wealth.
Fortunately, Wang Ronghua's aunt married a very good husband, Wang Ronghua's uncle, whose name is Feng Zhuoxian.
Feng Zhuoxian's family is well-off and can be regarded as a wealthy family. He has been to college and is knowledgeable. More importantly, he is also a Communist Party member and engaged in the revolutionary cause, which is equivalent to being the "guide" for Wang Ronghua to join the revolution.
1930, Wang Ronghua, who was only 13 years old, took the initiative to sign up to join the Chinese Youth Pioneer Team and participated in many project activities with everyone.
Because of her excellent performance, in just one year, she joined the Red Army team, and the army was responsible for the organization's publicity work.
At that time, Wang Ronghua worked very hard. When she got along with ordinary people, she always put herself in her shoes and actively protected women's rights.
Because of his excellent performance, Wang Ronghua has not only been recognized by the masses, but also promoted by the organization.
Not long after, Wang Ronghua became the main representative of women's publicity work because of his active and serious work.
During this period, he also served as salesperson, inspector, and deputy director of the post office.
Although the job has been transferred, after each task is issued, Wang Ronghua can actively learn new knowledge, be brave to take responsibility, and dare to take responsibility, and successfully complete the tasks arranged by his superiors with an exploration and enterprising spirit.
In the summer of 1935, after a long and arduous journey, the Central Red Army and the Red Fourth Front Army successfully met in Sichuan.
Once, Wang Ronghua happened to hear the story of Liu Bocheng. At that time, the situation of the Central Red Army was not optimistic. There was the unfathomable Jinsha River water in front and 100,000 pursuers behind, and the situation was worrying.
But Liu Bocheng cleverly got a ship from the Kuomintang county magistrate, grabbed the ferry, and allowed the Red Army soldiers to successfully cross the Jinsha River and get rid of the enemy's pursuit. It was witty and brave. Even Chairman Mao once praised Liu Bocheng for being one-stop. After hearing these descriptions, Liu Bocheng left a tall and mighty impression in Wang Ronghua's heart.
One morning shortly after, Wang Ronghua, then deputy director of the Postal Bureau of Sichuan and Shaanxi Province, received a notice: is in line to welcome the visit of the central delegation.
Not long after, more than a dozen comrades from the central delegation came.
One of the gay men with glasses attracted Wang Ronghua's attention. She felt that the other party was extraordinary and asked in a low voice, "Who is the representative of the glasses?"
The other party raised a thumbs up and told her, "He is the famous Chief of Staff Liu Bocheng! Don't you know him?"
Wang Ronghua's heart was filled with indescribable excitement. She had heard of Liu Bocheng's legend for a long time.
Shortly after the first meeting, Wang Ronghua was transferred from the Sichuan-Shaanxi Provincial Party Committee to the Fourth Bureau of the General Staff Department due to work needs. During this period, she and Liu Bocheng met frequently, and the two of them had a better understanding of each other.
But what really brought two hearts closer was when the Long March crossed the grassland .
In the autumn of the second year, the enemy launched the fourth "encirclement and suppression", and the Fourth Red Army made new strategic arrangements, and the main force moved westward.
The enemy situation is urgent and the situation is unpredictable. In order to ensure safety, the Yingshan County Party Secretary gathered three girls including Wang Ronghua, and each sent two silver dollars a letter of introduction, asking them to hurry up and find the Political Department of the Red 12th Division.
Three girls rushed for more than ten days and finally found the large army and joined the Women's Pioneer of the Red 12th Division.
When I passed the grassland, it was already late autumn, the plateau was cold, and the autumn wind was cool. Like all the Red Army soldiers, Wang Ronghua wore thin clothes and shoes, soaked his feet in smelly and cool water all day long, walking with difficulty.
The most terrifying thing is the quagmire that cannot be seen at first sight. If you accidentally fall down, it will be a disaster.
Just at this moment, Wang Ronghua's foot was injured and he was very inconvenient to move. After Liu Bocheng found out, he hoped that Wang Ronghua could ride his war horse, but was rejected by Wang Ronghua.
Looking at such a strong woman, Liu Bocheng's heart suddenly heated up.
Later, a soldier captured wild bears, and excitedly took them to Liu Shen . The soldier saw Liu Bocheng and was reluctant to eat them on weekdays. If there was any good thing, thought of giving them to everyone , and the soldier thought of taking the bear's claws to Liu Shen thought. Liu Bocheng Seeing that the bear claws were brought, he thought the soldiers were working too hard, so he should stew a big pot of soup and drink it together. Wang Ronghua saw that after Liu Bocheng , his favor for Staff Liu suddenly increased . Wang Ronghua very much appreciates Liu Bocheng is willing to share the joys and sorrows with everyone . After
, Liu Bocheng has been seeking help from Wang Ronghua, hoping that she can help herself improve her cultural knowledge. Wang Ronghua was also very happy to agree to the request of her idol, and the relationship between the two developed rapidly.
For a while, Zhang Guotao, who had ulterior motives, wanted to win over Liu Bocheng. Unexpectedly, he was rejected firmly before he could finish his words.
The petite Zhang Guotao felt that he had lost all his face and deliberately retaliated against Liu Bocheng, removed him from his post, and transferred him to the Red Army University as the president.
How can a chief of staff take care of everything about life alone? Wang Ronghua, who knew the inside story, ignored others' gossip and took the initiative to help Liu Bocheng, who was getting thinner, prepare for food.
Liu Bocheng's love for her is getting deeper and deeper.
Liu Bocheng was worried about his age and military rank and did not dare to show his love to Wang Ronghua, so he could only express his feelings to Wang Ronghua by writing a letter.
But after so many days of contact, he found that Liu Bocheng is not only good at fighting and talented, but also very caring. She is usually with everyone and is very approachable. It is also something she really hopes for when she can spend her life with such a person.
tossed and turned all night, but she still couldn't make up her mind. The next day, when I met Liu Bocheng, he hesitated and expressed his concerns. Liu Bocheng laughed: "What's the matter? I'm also from a poor family. As long as we have like-minded people, we can grow old together."
After a year of getting along, on the Mid-Autumn Festival in 1936, the two got married in Quzi Town, Gannan, . When the two got married, they didn’t even have a new bed. Due to limited conditions, they did not invite comrades. And on the second day of the wedding, the couple held hands and continued the arduous Long March. This year, Wang Ronghua was 19 years old and Liu Bocheng was 44 years old.
In the subsequent revolutionary career, the two of them have never left each other. As one of the most important military leaders of our army, Liu Bocheng fought abroad for many years, while Wang Ronghua retreated and handled the affairs around him.
After experiencing the battlefield battles of the Long March, the War of Resistance Against Japan and the War of Liberation, the motherland finally returned to the peaceful era. Liu Bocheng, who had been fighting for the country and the nation for half his life, finally stepped down from the front line of war.
Liu Bocheng, who left the battlefield, continued to contribute to the country. In 1951, he founded Nanjing Military Academy , and finally had more time to spend with his family.
For decades, their family has maintained this layout.
Liu Bocheng and Wang Ronghua gave birth to 7 children, but Their daughter Liu Huabei was brutally killed by the enemy.
For the remaining children, they all educate them with strict requirements. A few children could have been sent abroad to study, but she thought that they could not be specialized and gave up this opportunity. In order to improve the food for the children, she relied on picking up rotten vegetable leaves thrown away by others to feed a few hens laying eggs. Even though she worked so hard, she never thought of taking advantage of the country.
The clothes worn by their family were all made by Wang Ronghua bought cloth. Not only that, the clothes worn by the boss were sewn and sewn for the next child to continue wearing.
At that time, Wang Ronghua also warned his children not to think about relying on their parents and not to use their privileges to take advantage of the public.
Under the influence of parents, their children have all achieved success in their studies. has become a pillar of the country. 3 children are generals and 3 children are experts.
In 1972, Liu Bocheng was blind and his health was getting worse. After 1975, he couldn't take care of himself. Wang Ronghua carefully cared for Liu Bocheng for 13 years despite his age and illness. These 13 years of hard work and anxiety added many wrinkles to her forehead, and her hair turned white.
In 1982, on Liu Bocheng's 90th birthday, Yang Shangkun and other central leaders came to visit.
Looking at the marshal on the hospital bed, the group couldn't help but feel a sore nose.
After a long silence, Yang Shangkun turned to Wang Ronghua and said:
"Without the care and care of old comrade Ronghua, Liu Shuai would not have been so long. On behalf of the party and the people, I thank you!"
On October 7, 1986, Marshal Liu Bocheng died of illness.
When preparing for the memorial service, Deng Xiaoping, after seeing the funeral committee list, reminded: lost Liu Shuai's favorite general Xiao Yongyin!
Wang Ronghua personally called Xiao Yongyin and told him the news of Liu Bocheng's death. After hearing this news, Xiao Yongyin immediately took a plane to Beijing to see off his beloved Liu Shuai...
Wang Ronghua made a request and asked for his opinion: "I want to scatter the ashes!"
Xiao Yongyin replied with tears after hearing this: "I agree."
Marshal Liu Bocheng's ashes were scattered in Dabie Mountains , Taihang Mountains ...
When Liu Bocheng died, Wang Ronghua was almost 70 years old, but she did not give up her job, but insisted on contributing to the development of New China. But because she was too sad, she chose to leave the public eye and live a dull life alone in the countryside, only occasionally reuniting with her children. In 2008, Wang Ronghua died of illness at the age of 91.
In Wang Ronghua's life, she has seen the miserable life of the people under the war, witnessed the founding of New China and the people's increasingly happy life under the construction of socialism, enjoyed the family joy of husband and wife being with each other and children and grandchildren being around her knees, and also experienced the personal pain of losing her daughter and husband. She is not only the wife of Marshal Liu Bocheng, but not only the mother of four major generals, but also a great Communist Party member who devoted her life to the founding and construction of New China.
