When the dust of history settles, will those stories that once shocked people still cause us to ripple?1979, an ordinary year that may seem insignificant in China's history, was a turning point for General Xu Shiyou's family.
That year, his second son was captured, and as the father of the iron-blooded general, his reaction was surprisingly decisive - "Must be shot!"."Is this the cripple of father's love, or the coldness of a heart of stone?Or is there a story behind this that we don't know?
In 1979, China was in the initial stage of reform and opening up, and the country was trying to get rid of the haze of the Cultural Revolution and move towards a new era. In this context, the tragedy of the Xu family happened. Xu Shiyou's second son, Xu Xiaoxuan, is suspected of economic crimes**. Events moved rapidly, from a private matter of the family to a public focus.
Xu Shiyou, a general with a high status in Chinese history, made a shocking decision in the face of such a family upheaval. Allegedly, when he learned the news of his son's **, he did not hesitate to say: "You must be shot!."This decision is not only a verdict for his son, but also a maintenance of his iron-blooded image.
This incident quickly caused widespread discussion in society. One can't help but ask, how did this father come up with such a decision?Is there an untold story behind this?Is it anger at his son's unjust behavior, or absolute respect for the laws of the country?Perhaps, only by in-depth understanding of the historical background of that time and the personality traits of General Xu Shiyou can we have a deeper understanding of this issue.
As a soldier, Xu Shiyou spent almost all of his life in strict military discipline. His decisions may reflect his values as a military man, which are that any violation of discipline, whether on the battlefield or at home, must be punished severely. And in that particular historical period, the public expected higher moral standards for the children of national leaders. Xu Shiyou's decision may reflect his recognition and respect for this expectation to some extent.
However, how did this decision affect Xu Shiyou's personal psychology and emotions?As a father, what kind of struggle and pain did he have in his heart?These questions can only be left to time and history to answer.
At the same time as this history, we can't help but think about the line between law and emotionAs a leader of a country, especially a military general, how should personal emotions be balanced with the laws of the country?
General Xu Shiyou's decision has undoubtedly left us with profound thoughts. This is not only for a father when the weight of power collides with blood and family affection, what kind of sparks will be sparked?In 1979, China's political climate was quietly changing, but the storm in Xu Shiyou's house suddenly broke out at this moment.
Xu Shiyou, this tough old general, why did he have an unexpected "shooting" when facing the crime of his second son Xu Xiaoxuan?Is this iron-blooded and ruthless, or is it a hidden father's love?Can the story behind this make people find a balance between power and responsibility and emotion?
