On September 9, 1976, a great man passed away in Beijing. Life and death are the norm in the world, and this great man, who can be called a particularly important figure in Chinese history, is of course inevitably arranged by fate.
At that time people could not believe it:Why did ***, who was still able to swim the Yangtze River at the age of 73, suddenly leave in 1976?Regarding this matter, Zhang Yufeng, the personal secretary of ** before his death, revealed to the world: ** 3 major events he experienced in his later years completely destroyed his physical health.
So,What are the 3 major events in his life that he experienced in his later years?What kind of impact did this have on the physical health of *** and China at that time?
In 1918, the young man graduated from Hunan No. 1 Normal School, and then, ** was recommended by Yang Changji to work in the library of Peking University, although this profession is not so glamorous, but it is full of many beautiful stories.
Here, ** met his leader, who was Li Dazhao.
Under the guidance of Li Dazhao and Chen Duxiu, **'s revolutionary ideas were gradually perfected, and he later said to ** that under the influence of Mr. Li Dazhao, I became a Marxist in the real sense.
In the summer of 1919, when he returned to Peking University, Li Dazhao and Chen Duxiu were already planning a groundbreaking event, that is, the creation of the Communist Party of China.
In 1920, Chen Duxiu understood that *** was a rare genius, so he asked him to officially start the work of building the party in Hunan.
Since then, ** has become one of the founders of the Communist Party.
From the launch of the Autumn Harvest Uprising in 1927 to the completion of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea in 1953, he led the people's army to launch 26 years of difficult and tortuous revolutionary wars and anti-aggression wars.
In the history of world warfare, there are very few military commanders and military theorists who are so integrated. Caesar of Rome, Hannibal of Carthage, Alexander of ancient Macedon, and Napoleon of the First French Empire are the four famous military generals recognized by the West, ranking first, Napoleon organized and commanded about 60 battles and important battles in his lifetime.
WhileIn his lifetime, he led and commanded more than 240 campaigns and major battles, won victories in strategic battles and all wars over the years, defeated all enemies at home and abroad, and left more than 10 million words of military literature.
It is difficult to compare any outstanding figure who has had a great influence in the history of military thought, whether in terms of the overall world outlook, the rationality and progress of the scientific approach, or the depth, breadth, and complexity of the scope of his war practice.
He is a great military commander who is unparalleled in the world and worthy of the name.
In the summer of 1975, ** suffered from a heart attack due to myocardial infarction, and finally dragged the chairman back from death through the all-out treatment of medical staff. Since then, the chairman's physical condition has plummeted, and the staff around him are very sad. But he thought about it very openly, he felt that death was more like a normal state of life, a stage that everyone must go through, no need to be frightened, let alone avoid.
Under the influence of such a cheerful and open-minded attitude, the surrounding staff were also deeply touched!As everyone knows, it is one thing to have a considerable mentality, and it is another thing to suffer from illness!Although *** has long been downsipated about life and death, the pain of illness in his later years has been tormenting this old man who has worked hard for China all the time!
With the passage of time, **'s physical condition is capricious, and his health is not as good as before, and the positive and optimistic *** is calmly coping with this matter, as a staunch materialist, **I feel that birth, old age, sickness and death are normal things,People are inherently dead, or heavier than Mount Tai, or lighter than Hongmao, ** just want to take advantage of the limited time to do more things for the country and the people.
During his serious illness, ** unfortunately suffered from cataract and could not see with his eyes, and the staff advised him to recuperate, but he insisted on not wanting to give up his work, instructed the assistant to read the document information to himself, and then gave instructions verbally. After the operation, the chairman even asked people to find a magnifying glass and rely on it to read the newspaper and read the documents. The chief surgeon has instructed countless times that *** should not read more than 15 minutes of books every day, but as soon as the momentum of reading books and documents comes up, how can you care about the doctor's advice or not?The doctor was helpless about this matter.
But despite this, according to Zhang Yufeng, ** was brave and abnormal in the fight against the disease, but in fact, there were three things that really crushed him.
It is also of great significance for *** and ***. Before the Long March, the supreme leader of our party's military was the leader of the Red Army. At that time, we trusted our military superiority very much, and solicited our opinions several times to make a military strategic layout, and also achieved very good results.
Perhaps it was the excessive consumption of a lot of work when he was young, and in his later years, he became seriously ill at the same time as ***. In 1972, after attending the memorial service of **, ** fell ill all of a sudden and went into shock. With a heavy burden on the body, he worked day and night, and the whole person lost weight, and was finally diagnosed with bladder cancer. As everyone knows, even in illness, they still care about each other.
The condition of the two became more and more serious, and they were successively placed in 305 Hospital and Zhongnanhai for recuperation. In fact, these two places are not far apart, but in order to avoid the two from being overly emotional and aggravating their condition when they meet, they have never arranged a visit. At that time, *** often had some major surgeries and was often in a deep coma, but the first question he asked when he woke up was always,"Where's the chairman?Is he feeling better?”
**Not only is it difficult to move, but the words are not very clear, and any ideas can only be guessed by the personal secretary who has been with them for a long time, or written down with a pen. When he could still lift the pen, he wrote a poem for ***, and all he cared about was who would guard the country after the two of them fell ill?
In the last days of his life, if he is conscious, he pays attention to the situation of ***, and when he is idle, he will carefully wipe the *** medals he has collected.
At 9 o'clock in the morning on January 8, 1976, he left him forever!At that time, ***'s body was very weak, and the relevant staff around him were worried about stimulating the chairman after receiving the news, so they were always hesitant to tell the chairman or how to tell the chairman!
It wasn't until three o'clock in the afternoon that the secretary Xiao Meng couldn't bear to read the obituary to him. When I heard the bad news, I couldn't help but cry bitterly. And *** leaving, it also gave *** a very big blow!You must know that since joining the revolution, ** has spent most of the time with ***, the two have experienced many ups and downs together, and the friendship between each other is no longer something that words can describe!It's a pity that the two didn't see each other before they died.
Despite the illness of **, he still said:"**Now that I'm gone, I'm not in good health, I'm going to get more work done," he said
After a while, **The illness suddenly worsened, and until his death, ** stayed at his post.
Since March, **, who has difficulty walking, has been using a wheelchair to go out to work, but if his physical condition allows at that time, he will still walk as much as possible.
Until May, ** was hospitalized for colds for 2 consecutive times.
On June 21, 1976, at the age of 90, Commander-in-Chief Zhu came to the General Assembly Hall with heavy steps, and his purpose was to meet with Malcolm Fraser, then Prime Minister of Australia, who was visiting China.
The next morning, **'s condition deteriorated rapidly, the whole person had a high fever and diarrhea, and the person became more and more trance-like, which had never been done before, and he went to Beijing Hospital for hospitalization not long after.
The severity of the pain was obvious, and there were two heart attacks in the following May and June, but fortunately they were treated in time.
On July 6th, Mr. Zhu left with regret, ** not long after he was rescued, his body was very weak, he couldn't stand up, he could only lie on the bed, and once again heard the departure of his old comrades-in-arms, his emotions were obvious.
He even sighed:"'Vermilion', 'Vermilion', cannot be separated. Now that Zhu has gone to see Marx, I should be about the same!”
In late July 1976, due to the death of Commander-in-Chief Zhu before and after, coupled with the deterioration of his condition, he suffered from high insomnia and dreams, and often read books late at night to relieve his troubles. On July 28, 1976, ** suddenly felt an obvious earthquake in the bedroom, and at the same time, Meng Jinyun, who felt the shock, rushed to protect ***
**Took sleeping pills before going to bed, so he didn't wake up because of**, and when he saw that *** was safe, all the relevant staff were relieved.
At this time, there were also repeated aftershocks.
Meng Jinyun and others were worried that the wall that shook would hit the chairman, so they pulled a sheet and carefully opened it on the top of the chairman's bed.
Soon after, ** gradually opened his eyes.
He also had a nasogastric tube stuck in his nose and struggled to speak.
At this time, an urgent telegram was sent to Zhongnanhai.
When he learned that the telegram was sent by ***, at this time, the blurred eyes of *** insisted on holding a magnifying glass and checking the telegram information with difficulty.
Immediately after reading the telegram, the chairman burst into tears, exerting all his strength to speak.
At this time, the guard hurriedly listened to the chairman's mouth, and finally heard what the chairman said
"Go to Tangshan, go to Tangshan!”
The sad message of Tangshan Da** became the last straw that crushed ***'s physical condition. On September 8th, the heart of the front line of the anti-risk *** tossed and turned, reading 11 times a day, up to 2 hours and 50 minutes.
At 0:10 on September 9, **'s blood pressure gradually decreased. Later, after nearly 4 hours of treatment in the hospital, ** finally fell ill and passed away at the age of 83.
In 1976, the death of **, the death of Commander-in-Chief Zhu and the death of Tangshan** not only made *** extremely sad, but also the pain that the Chinese people could not erase. With *** dying of illness on September 9 of the same year, 1976 may have become the saddest and most sad year for the people.
However, ** and other revolutionary predecessors left behind the spiritual wealth of the Chinese people, which will not pass away because of their departure. The Chinese people, who turned their grief into strength, continued their last wish, opened up a new chapter of brilliant achievements in the Republic in the second half of the 20th century, and let the proud Chinese nation stand tall in the East of the world from now on!
