In 1974, the prime minister issued a secret order to protect the ashes of No. 273 with all his might, and even the chairman was concealed!

In 1974, the seriously ill *** personally issued a secret order, requiring his personnel to do their best to protect the urn numbered 273, and at the same time promised to keep the matter strictly confidential, and even *** was kept in the dark.

So, whose ashes are placed in this urn numbered 273?Why does the Prime Minister attach so much importance to it that he does not hesitate to hide it from the President?Let's find out the truth.

In 1974, two soldiers of the People's Liberation Army came to Chengdu, Sichuan Province, with solemn expressions and an urn in their hands. Led by local staff, they went to the Sichuan Provincial Party Committee and conveyed an important order from the premier: "This urn must be closely protected, and no information about this matter shall be leaked."

After receiving a mysterious order, the cadres of the Sichuan Provincial Party Committee were all confused. Despite the orders of their superiors, they took a series of measures to ensure that the urn was stored safely.

To avoid attracting unwanted attention, they placed the urn in a more remote crematorium, side by side with the rest of the ashes. The shelf where the ashes are located is numbered 273.

Before leaving, they repeatedly stressed that the urn must be kept safe by the staff and that it should be inspected every day and not changed or moved at will.

An ordinary urn, but it makes the superiors pay extra attention. The name on the urn is "Wang Chuan", but he looks like an ordinary person. The staff was puzzled by the origin of this urn, and he carefully guarded it every day.

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, this urn had been placed in the Chengdu crematorium for four years. Colleagues in the Sichuan Provincial Party Committee have also retired or been transferred.

This seemingly mundane urn seems to have been forgotten by time.

Before 1978, several high-ranking officials made a surprise visit to the crematorium. They approached the staff and asked if they had received an "anomalous" urn a few years ago.

When the staff responded, an indescribable premonition swelled up in their hearts, as if it was time for this urn to leave.

Under the leadership of the staff, the group quickly found the urn No. 273, which had been stored for four years. What is strange is that after seeing the urn, the faces of these leaders are full of nostalgia and respect, and their eyes seem to be quietly red.

The staff on the side couldn't hold back their curiosity, and asked a few tentatively, who is this ***, and why does the boss respect him so much?

One of the old leaders, who was not tall but looked a little older, sighed deeply after hearing this, and then turned his head to the staff and said that he was not called "Wang Chuan", and the real name of the person in the urn was ***

This sentence was like a bolt from the blue, and the staff was shocked. It turns out that the ashes that he has been taking care of for many years belong to a generation of famous generals, what is going on?

**Marshal was born in October 1898 in Xiangtan, Hunan, from a poor family since childhood, and his parents were hard-working farmers. He lost his mother at a young age, and his father was seriously ill, and his life was very difficult.

In 1916, the Second Division of the Hunan Army began to recruit soldiers, and Mr. Peng, who was only 18 years old, did not hesitate to sign up for the army. As soon as he stepped on the battlefield, Mr. Peng showed outstanding military talent and command wisdom, like a natural military strategist, from an unknown pawn to a general commanding tens of millions of soldiers.

During this period, he experienced countless fierce battles, and won great feats with his blood, sweat and wisdom.

In 1949, the People's Republic of China was born, and Mr. Peng, as one of the founding marshals, was ordered to lead the volunteers across the Yalu River and into North Korea. At this time, Mr. Peng's physical condition was not good, and everyone persuaded him to retreat to the second line, but Mr. Peng insisted on going to the front line and personally confronted the enemy.

In the most difficult period of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, Mr. Peng's heroic figure was still active in the most dangerous front line, and it was not until the victory of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea that Mr. Peng was able to breathe a sigh of relief.

Regrettably, not long after Mr. Peng's good days, he had serious problems with his body, and the hospital diagnosed him with cancer. In November 1974, Mr. Peng ended his legendary and glorious life in illness.

On the day of his death, only his niece Peng Meikui was by his side. However, due to the special environment, Peng Meikui was unable to make a sound even though she was very sad in her heart.

Mr. Peng's body was secretly cremated after the farewell, and the process was extremely secretive, and even the chairman was kept in the dark. Although ***'s physical condition was very poor, he still insisted on arranging everything for his old comrades-in-arms, and named the ashes Wang Chuan and sent them to Chengdu, Sichuan overnight.

Four years later, on December 12, 1978, Mr. Peng's grievances were cleared. The ashes, which had been placed in the Chengdu crematorium for four years, were finally welcomed back to Beijing.

On the day Mr. Peng's ashes were sent back to Beijing, the whole city was lit up, and people welcomed the hero's return in the most simple but warm way.

Although Mr. Peng has been removed from all his positions, how to hold a memorial service that is both solemn and in line with his identity has become a major challenge for the leaders.

** The comrades made a decision to properly place the body of Mr. Peng in the manner of the founding fathers, and held a solemn memorial service. On December 24, responsible persons from various provinces, municipalities and major military regions attended Mr. Peng's memorial service.

The memorial service was presided over by General *** himself, and Comrade *** came to the stage to deliver a eulogy. After the memorial service, Mr. Peng's ashes were properly placed in the Babaoshan Revolutionary Cemetery, where there are also the ashes of **Marshal, **Marshal and others.

Those soldiers who sacrificed their blood for the establishment of New China finally got the honor and status they deserved. I believe that the prime minister, who has passed away for many years, will also feel very relieved to see this scene.

In 1999, with the approval of the organization, **'s nephew and niece sent his ashes back to his hometown of Xiangtan and buried him next to his loved ones. They looked at Mr. Peng's tombstone, recalled the bits and pieces they spent with him, and the pain he suffered in his later years, and couldn't help but feel sad, they choked up and stroked the photo of Mr. Peng on the tombstone, and said, "Uncle, we are finally home."

In the long course of history, many people have been treated unfairly, and many heroes have ended their careers tragically, but we firmly believe that history will always give the most fair and fair evaluation, and the people will always remember them.
