In 1991, General **, who was the vice chairman at the time, received a mysterious letter, the wording of which was full of mystery: "General, do you remember that in the past, a landlord surnamed Liao lent 1,000 loads of life-saving food?
The letter was signed by Ma Xiliang, who was once a subordinate of **. The memory of this history is deeply imprinted in his heart, and as an important event, it is naturally impossible for him to completely forget it. However, more than forty years have passed since this incident.
What is the purpose of Mahilean mentioning this now, and what kind of deep meaning is hidden behind it?
In 1991, General **, who had served as vice chairman, received a mysterious letter, which was full of mysterious wording: "*General, do you remember that more than 40 years ago, a landlord surnamed Liao once lent you a thousand loads of life-saving food?"
The letter was signed by Ma Xiliang, a subordinate of the former **. This historical memory is deeply imprinted in his heart, and as an important event, it is naturally impossible for him to completely forget it. However, what is the purpose of Mahilean mentioning this matter now, and what kind of deep meaning is hidden behind it?
The Emperor of the Soil - the Liao family, in a certain era in Hubei, there was a family surnamed Liao, and the head of the family enjoyed the reputation of "Emperor of the Soil" in the local area.
However, in that period of social turmoil, this "Master Liao" could only barely protect the family's foundation, and did not have enough spare energy to further amplify its influence.
At this time, "the times create heroes", the door to the prosperity of the Liao family is also quietly opened, and the beginning of all this starts with a woman. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, Master Liao's eldest son, Liao Linxuan, married his main room, the Mao family.
In that era shrouded by feudal ideology, advocating that "a woman is virtuous if she is not talented", however, Mao broke the shackles of women in that era, learned female red skills since she was a child, and also studied a lot of poems and historical classics.
Over time, Mao not only became a woman who had the courage to express herself in the family business, but also became known as a well-known local talent, who was very popular for her diligence and thrift, intelligence and virtue.
By chance, Liao Linxuan met a businessman surnamed Xu who was in trouble, and he generously extended a helping hand. The grateful businessman surnamed Xu realized that his mining business was unsustainable, so he was willing to ask Liao Linxuan at a low price for a saltwater well in his hand - "Huiran Well".
For Liao Linxuan, this was an unexpected joy, he knew that mineral springs were a difficult resource to buy, and for someone like him, who owned a large family, he knew the secret of wealth hidden in it. So he and Mao went to Yingcheng together, settled down and began to develop mining.
During the turning of the wheel of history, the saltwater wells jointly operated by the husband and wife produced high-purity salt brought wealth to the Liao family.
When Liao Fuchu was born, Liao Sanjia had already opened "Liao Xinji", "Liao Aiji", "Liao Liji" and other businesses in the Yuncheng area, and was known as "Liao Sanjia" by the locals.
However, in 1937, the July 7 Incident broke out, Japan invaded China in an all-out way, and Yuncheng was occupied by the Japanese army after the death of Liao Linxuan, the ancestor of Liao Fuchu. Under Mao's advice, Liao Fuchu had no choice but to return to his hometown, looking forward to peace coming again. Going south to save food has become an important mission.
At that time, the CCP ** assessed the situation and decided to send a team to the south to establish a revolutionary base area. In the end, it was decided that ** would be in charge of this task, and he assured ** and *** that this mission would be successfully accomplished. So, ** led his 5,000 soldiers on a journey south.
Under the guidance of the battle flag, they marched forward with great difficulty, and in the face of harsh battles, with fearless courage and tenacious will, they stubbornly resisted the encirclement and suppression of the enemy. In this bitter battle, the camp of our army has been shrinking, from the initial more than 5,000 people to more than 1,000.
When they arrived in Zaoyang, Hubei Province, in addition to extreme exhaustion, there were more and more wounded and bad weather for several days, a series of factors that made it difficult to move forward. Therefore, it was decided to stop at Huantan to allow the soldiers to rest and rest in order to enter the battle again.
However, worse weather came, with heavy snowfall, thick snow making the march more difficult, and the troops were running out of food. Without new supplies, ** and his team could starve and cold in a blizzard.
At this moment, Li Shi, the right-hand man of **, became a key person and sent him to the city to find food. After some efforts, he was unable to find much food to help them.
As he fell into despair, he remembered the Liao family, a well-known local family, who might have food they desperately needed. So, he plucked up the courage to come to the Liao family and stated their intentions to the manager, hoping that the Liao family could lend a hand.
However, the owner of the Liao family was not at home, and there was only an old lady Mao in her nineties at home. He showed her that they needed a thousand stone of rice.
When he offered to repay the grain, Mrs. Mao smiled and said: "I know that you Communist Party, I know that you have done a lot of good things for the people, and now that you are in difficulty, we should lend our help."
The Liao family once donated 1,000 stone of grain to General **, and Mrs. Mao generously said: "There is no need to pay it back." These words brought tears to Li Shi's eyes, and gratitude arose.
However, ironically, in the years after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the eldest grandson of the Liao family suffered from false accusations and spent more than 40 years in prison. What's going on here?
During the "anti-rebellion movement", Liao Fuchu was reported as a "counter-revolutionary", accused of colluding with the Kuomintang and committing many evil acts. However, this is not the case.
At that time, in order to defend themselves, the Liao family had asked ** to form a "self-defense force" to resist the Japanese army, and did not use the team to oppress the people, just to protect themselves.
Subsequently, the self-defense unit was disbanded, and the soldiers returned to the ** unit, but under the command of the Kuomintang, they did many things that were not good for the people. After his release, Liao returned home, only to find that his family was destitute and even homeless.
In order to clear his name, he began to look for someone who could prove his innocence. Mahilian wrote to **, mentioning the letter of borrowing grain, and **Vice Chairman has always kept it in mind.
Although as the vice chairman, ** was busy with official business, but after learning of the situation, he immediately appointed someone to clear the Liao family of the crime and provided ** subsidy as compensation. The court's verdict was then served, and Liao's 40-year grievances were finally revealed.
Recalling the difficult years in the past, now I can get rid of the trouble of strange eyes, and my heart is full of excitement and tears. Epilogue. The selfless dedication of the Liao family made a great contribution to the Liberation War, and their actions were to ensure that the people could live happily.
After our party learned that the Liao family was in crisis, it actively extended a helping hand, demonstrating the warm feelings of the military and the people being connected by blood and helping each other, and showing a beautiful picture of the unity of the army and the people.
