In June 1950, the smoke of the Korean War was filled, and the Chinese and American armies fought fiercely on the border between China and North Korea, and the situation was grim. At this moment, Mao Anying, the eldest son of **, was only 28 years old, and took the initiative to invite Ying to join the army with family and country feelings. However, this decision made Mao Anying and her father say goodbye to her father on the banks of the Yalu River, which became an unexpected and tragic chapter in history.
In Mao Anying's life experience, the family was separated due to the revolution, and fate also bore a heavy historical burden. Mao Anying was born in Changsha, Hunan Province in 1922, but his childhood was shrouded in the shadow of the White Terror. Her mother, Yang Kaihui, was a staunch communist, and after her husband *** launched the Autumn Harvest Uprising, she stayed in Changsha to carry out the underground struggle. However, she died heroically in 1930** at the age of 29. Her mother's tenacity was deeply imprinted in the depths of Mao Anying's heart, and the fire for the revolution was sown.
After her mother's death, Mao Anying and her brothers were rescued by their uncle Yang Kaizhi, but life was still full of hardship. Exiled on the streets of Shanghai, they endured turbulent years until 1936, when the underground party found them and sent them to the International Children's Home in the Soviet Union. In the Soviet Union, Mao Anying found his faith in communism, and for the liberation of the motherland, he even repeatedly asked to go to the front in the Great Patriotic War of the Soviet Union, but due to political agreements, Chinese children could not serve in the military. Eventually, he entered the military academy for further study, participated in the Soviet army's campaign to liberate Berlin, achieved military achievements, and returned to Yan'an.
In Yan'an, Mao Anying entered the "Labor University" at the suggestion of the party and devoted himself to communist propaganda work. He and Liu Siqi met, and the two formed a deep relationship in the revolutionary cause. However, since Liu Siqi is under the age of 18, according to the regulations, the two cannot get married. Although Mao Anying was anxious to enter the marriage hall with her beloved, she insisted that the party's discipline was higher than her personal feelings and refused her son's request. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Mao Anying and Liu Siqi finally became husband and wife.
After the outbreak of the Korean War, Mao Anying took the initiative to invite Ying to join the army, a decision that made *** both relieved and heartbroken. He knows that he has high expectations for his son, but he also understands Mao Anying's ambition to serve the country. So, at the moment when Mao Anying embarked on the journey to join the army, ** tearfully wrote the poem "Loyal bones are buried everywhere in Qingshan" for him. However, tragedy happened not long after, Mao Anying died heroically on the battlefield, and he could not see his father in the future.
** Rejected the offer to let his son enjoy the treatment of a martyr, insisting that he was an ordinary revolutionary fighter and should not be treated special because he was the son of the chairman. After Liu Siqi learned the news of Mao Anying's sacrifice, in addition to being deeply saddened, she was more concerned about whether Mao Anying was qualified. **'s answer comforted her, and also allowed Mao Anying's spirit in the sky to rest in peace.
Mao Anying's life was a life of revolution and a life of selfless dedication to the Chinese people and ideals and beliefs. As the son of ***, he has withstood the test of history and the people. Even as a father, he always adhered to the original intention of a revolutionary, did not engage in speciality, and was determined to fight for the cause of communism. In the long river of time, Mao Anying's life is like a bright star, shining on the history of China. We should always remember him as a symbol of the revolutionary spirit and show us the way forward.
