Ningxia Wang Ma Hongkui, beltTons of ** escape from the United States, homesick at the end of life.
In January 1970, Ma Hongkui died alone in Los Angeles, with no one by his side, only a wife and an aunt. He was once a man of the hour who ruled Ningxia for 17 years and was known as the "King of Ningxia".
However, in 1949, the army was defeated and fled to the United States, taking with him 75 tons**, thinking that in this way you can live a carefree old age. However, the escape was only the beginning of bad luck, and he was hit in many ways.
In his later years, he felt lonely and kept muttering "I want to go home" on his deathbed. Well, with 7After 5 tons** fled to the United States, what did Ma Hongkui experience?
In 1949, the 19th Corps of the People's Liberation Army set out from Dingxi, Guyuan, and Lanzhou at the same time and marched to Yinchuan, Ningxia. Ma Hongkui saw that the situation was getting more and more unfavorable, and began to prepare to escape.
In September, he left Ningxia with his wife and children and came to Taiwan, where he planned to continue to follow Chiang Kai-shek. But he kept an eye on it, and did not bring the **, jade, calligraphy and paintings looted during the reign of Ningxia to Taiwan, but to Hong Kong.
Later it turned out that he was really a veteran, and this trick was very clever. Soon after Ma Hongkui arrived in Taiwan, the Kuomintang began to settle accounts with him, and Ma Bufang, the "bandit king of the northwest," Ma Bufang and his son, Guo Jiqiao, and others wrote letters to Chiang Kai-shek, condemning him for his ineffective command and taking overall responsibility for the military defeat in the northwest.
Soon, Ma Hongkui was punished by "removal from office and investigation". Ma Hongkui was very disappointed and disheartened by such a result, and he clearly realized that he could not get along in Taiwan, and if he did not leave at this time, he would definitely not be able to leave in the future.
He devised an elaborate plan for the golden cicada to escape from Taiwan safely. He asked his fourth aunt, Liu Muxia, to pretend to be sick, go to Hong Kong for medical treatment, and lure Taiwan's top brass to approve his leave application through a fake critical illness telegram, and then used the opportunity to leave Taiwan with his son Ma Dunjing.
His ploy succeeded, the top brass gave him a month's vacation, and he left for Hong Kong with his son and part of his possessions. Despite his inner excitement, he remained calm until he made sure that all his family and possessions had arrived safely in Hong Kong, and then confessed his decision to Taiwan's leadership: not to return to Taiwan, but to the United States.
Ma Hongkui chose to go to the United States because he found that there were a large number of Kuomintang agents in Hong Kong, and his safety could not be guaranteed if he stayed there for a long time. He did not go alone, but with 75 tons**, countless treasures, and his son Ma Dunjing left with several aunts and wives.
Ma Hongkui's departure and retribution What is the end of Ma Hongkui in the United States? This local powerhouse in Ningxia kept abandoning his family on the way to flee his hometown, but finally suffered retribution.
He married six wives, and only one of them bore him three sons and one daughter. In 1941, his eldest son died of opium smoking, leaving only two sons and one daughter.
While fleeing, he decided to let only his son take him, leaving his daughter and granddaughter behind. This decision left him lonely in his later years. Eventually, his great-granddaughter Ma Ailing became a light in his life.
However, his second son Ma Dunjing wanted to keep his granddaughter Ma Ailing by his side and didn't want her to become Ma Hongkui's raiser.
Ma Hongkui and Ma Dunjing's father and son went to court because of the fight for the custody of Ma Ailing, but Ma Hongkui ended up failing and fell into loneliness. In fact, the first person to leave Ma Hongkui was his fifth aunt, Tai Zou Deyi.
After Ma Hongkui brought his son and aunt to San Francisco, his life gradually stabilized. Ma Hongkui began to assign responsibilities to his family, among them, Liu Muxia, who was corrected, held the financial power of the family.
However, Liu Muxia and Zou Deyi often had conflicts, and Ma Hongkui did not intervene in mediation, but let them continue to quarrel. This situation led Zou Deyi to fall in love with someone else, betray Ma Hongkui, and finally leave him.
This hit Ma Hongkui hard and made him feel lost. In his later years, he often talked about wanting to go home. In 1970, he died in Los Angeles, accompanied only by his wife Liu Muxia and his aunt Zhao Lanxiang.
On his deathbed, he still expressed his longing for home: "I long to go home! Having said that, Ma Hongkui's later years were lonely and miserable. As the saying goes, "Poor people must have something to hate", who can blame him for being on the run?
Is it to blame the people of Ningxia who have been exploited and oppressed by him for nearly 20 years? Or do you blame those who were innocently killed by him? It can only be said that Ma Hongkui's encounter is karma.
He cannot blame the people, nor the innocent, nor his children and grandchildren. If he took his children with him when he fled, how could he end up with only two people to accompany him?
