As we all know, ** is one of the founding marshals of our country and has made great contributions to the founding of New China.
He is a real case of Wu Neng going on a horse to command the war, and Wen Neng lifting the pen to rebuke Fang Xuan.
He not only has his own unique views on military affairs, but also has a lot of ingenuity in literature.
In the ** marshal, we can see both the heroism of the marshal and the character of the literati.
He read poetry and books, and read all the schools, perhaps because of this, he was broad-minded and never wanted to deal with others. Straightforward and cheerful, quite Li Bai's style!
But what few people know is that the ** marshal offended many people in the early days because of his overly straightforward character, and later left the New Fourth Army created by himself because of these trivial things.
Now the question is, how did the straightforward and honest ** marshal become the mature and stable he is now? Why was he forced to leave the New Fourth Army, and what happened in it?
There are a lot of questions, let's reveal them today!
"I read Yuanming's poems and like them to be interesting. When the bird changes its voice, the good seedling is pregnant with a new ear. I read Du Fu's poems and like their genres. In the midst of the turmoil, the country and the people ......are worried about the tears”
This is the marshal's summary of the writing style of the famous poets of ancient China, and the reason why he has this evaluation is precisely because he has read poetry and books and read all good books.
His favorite thing in his life was reading, and he once reached the point of forgetting to sleep and eat.
When he was young, he followed his family to visit relatives, and saw books at their homes that he had always wanted to read but never found.
He was very happy to see this book, and then took the book and began to read.
Everyone was chatting lively, and he seemed to be in another world, completely abandoning the noise of the outside world, immersed in his own books, unable to extricate himself.
Then he found another piece of paper, took notes while reading, dipped the brush in ink, did not lift his head, and was completely immersed in the book.
It didn't take long for him to come to lunchtime, and his relatives repeatedly urged him to come to dinner, but he never moved, and his relatives urged him several times, seeing that he was immersed in the world of books, and his relatives stopped saying anything.
Later, they brought the marshal's favorite glutinous rice and sugar to him, and after the marshal thanked him briefly, he still only cared about reading, and his relatives had to urge him to taste it quickly, otherwise it would be cold.
He looked down at the book, picked up a piece of glutinous rice, habitually stretched out his hand to the inkstone, the glutinous rice was stained with ink, he didn't notice it, but handed it into his mouth and took a big bite.
When he reacted, his mouth was already full of ink, and when his relatives saw him full of ink, he smiled and showed a mouthful of small black teeth, and he couldn't straighten his waist with a smile.
** couldn't help laughing, he joked to himself: It's okay, it just happens that there is too little ink in the stomach, drink some ink, let the stomach be decorated with ink, more knowledge, more knowledge.
A simple sentence instantly dissolves the embarrassment!
In addition, the ** marshal also made his mother angry because of reading, when he was reading a collection of poems, his mother asked him to go to the street to buy mung beans, he was reluctant to put down the poetry book in his hand, so he went shopping while reading.
When he arrived, he was asked what beans he was buying, and he pointed to it casually and continued to indulge in poetry.
When he got home, his mother looked at the beans he was carrying and was furious, "I asked you to buy mung beans, what are you buying?" ”
Driven by his mother's roar, he was forced to walk out of the world of the book, and when he looked down, he realized that he had bought the wrong beans, mistaken peas for mung beans, and bought a bunch of peas back in a daze.
* Because he had a lot of fun reading, he never gave up the habit of reading, reading is his hobby, but he loves to write books more than reading.
He wrote many poems, some criticizing today's phenomena, some summarizing the achievements of the ancients, some looking forward to the future, and of course, most of all, he expressed his personal emotions.
"The general is a poet by nature".
* The general never stopped writing poetry throughout his life, even during the most difficult period when he was studying in France, he never gave up reading and writing poetry.
In October 1921, Marshal ** was escorted back to China by armed escort for participating in the patriotic movement of Chinese students studying in France, and was forced to end his study career in France.
In 1922, he returned to his hometown, and with the recommendation of Cai Hesen, he successfully joined the Chinese Socialist Youth League.
In fact, as early as when he was in France, he had the intention of joining, but the accident happened too quickly, and he was forced to separate from the large army.
After joining the Chinese Socialist Youth League, he continued to study, while contributing to the party, and constantly decorating himself with knowledge.
When he was in his hometown, he often contributed articles to Chongqing's Xinshu Daily, and later he also became the chief writer of the newspaper, spreading Marxism through literary creation, and he integrated Marxism into literary creation, influencing a new generation of young people in Chongqing.
In 1923, he went to Beijing to study at the Faculty of Liberal Arts of Sino-French University, and under the introduction of Yan Changyi and Xiao Zhensheng, he joined the Communist Party of China.
* When he carried out his work, he did not forget to write poems, poetry collections are the best way for him to express his personal emotions, and all the dissatisfaction, excitement, and resentment in his heart will be expressed through poetry collections.
In 1931, ** set off to participate in the anti-rebellion meeting, and was attacked on the way back, in the rain of bullets, he miraculously survived, but I don't know who announced that ** was dead, and his wife Xiao Juying was grief-stricken when she learned about it.
Hearing that her husband had left, she threw herself into the well without hesitation.
**After several twists and turns, he finally rushed home, but when he first arrived home, he learned that his wife mistakenly thought that he was dead and threw himself into the well to be martyred.
* The general always wrote poems with feelings, never deliberately, and if he had been born in peacetime, he would have become a famous writer.
Writing poetry is the biggest way for him to express his emotions, but he never imagined that one day he would have conflicts with others because of writing poetry.
In June 1943, ** served as the acting commander of the New Fourth Army, and Rao Shushi served as the acting secretary of the Central China Bureau and the acting political commissar and director of the Political Department of the New Fourth Army, and the two became a pair.
As the main core of the troops, the pair of partners not only did not complete the character run-in, but went to the two extremes of personality.
Rao Shushi, **Liu Ruilong, and Su Yu are accustomed to chic and freedom, and think that writing poetry is just to express personal emotions, while the other has always been rigorous, thinking that writing poetry is a waste of time and a capitalist mood.
Originally, it was just a small issue of writing poetry, but without anyone to reconcile, the contradiction escalated, and finally even rose to the problem of party spirit.
At first, the appointment of the two was in the hope that they could complement each other, learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses, and make progress together, but what they didn't expect was that they both thought that they didn't need to change, and the purpose of common progress was not achieved, but let them have the idea of changing each other.
Rao Shushi often reprimanded ** in front of outsiders, he said: "* often reciting poems against him, if he doesn't change, he will stumble sooner or later." ”
* He was also dissatisfied with Rao Shushi's failure to contact the party organization in time after the incident in southern Anhui, he said, "Why didn't you contact the party organization in time, and didn't explain what you did during that time after you returned!" ”
The two faced each other, and the contradiction continued to escalate, and the later Xiang Ying incident added fuel to the contradiction between the two.
Rao Shushi** and Xiang Ying have experience in participating in guerrilla warfare, he believes that Xiang Ying is not as unbearable as Rao Shushi said, the two have shared hardships, he knows Xiang Ying's contribution to the party, but Rao Shushi has to be unforgiving, excessive criticism of Xiang Ying.
After reminding him, Rao Shushi still did not reflect, ** couldn't bear it, and directly pointed out Rao Shushi's excessive criticism during the meeting, and used him as a negative example to remind everyone to pay attention to grasping principles.
This behavior aroused Rao Shushi's dissatisfaction, and he thought that ** was deliberately targeting him, so he tried his best to fight with **.
But what he doesn't know is that ** has such a practice because of his character, he has not deliberately targeted anyone at all, he is used to going straight, having something to say, and directly raising problems and solving problems when encountered.
The two mistakenly placed each other in the enemy's position without knowing each other's true thoughts, and they went toe-to-toe at the meeting, which led to embarrassing situations in the meeting many times.
Rao Shushi even contacted a lot of people who had different views on ** and deliberately isolated **.
* Once offended many people unconsciously because of his upright personality, Rao Shushi took a fancy to this, he contacted the people who had offended before, and re-aroused everyone's dissatisfaction with ** through chatting.
In addition, he deliberately united others to criticize ** at the meeting.
Since then, the contradictions between the two have completely risen to an irreconcilable state, and there has even been isolation in the team, so that it is impossible to continue to work smoothly in the team.
The contradiction between the two intensified, and even spread to ***, after the chairman learned of the contradiction between the two, he decided to mediate, and in November 1943, **let ** go to Yan'an to participate in the Seventh National Congress of the Communist Party of China.
But the young and vigorous **Marshal mistakenly thought that *** was biased towards Rao Shushi, and immediately wrote a poem: Knowing my second and third sons, what can I say about deep love. Go to Mofu Road, pine and cypress endure the cold!
**After seeing this poem, he smiled calmly, "Good literary style, I really want to write poetry, this kind of literary style doesn't write poetry, it's a pity!" ”
* The marshal has never understood that he was transferred, and even when he went to Yan'an to report to work in March 1944, the first thing he saw was to report to him about the conflict between him and Rao Shushi.
When he learned that he was still worried about this matter, he said with a smile: "If you only report to me today about you and Xiao Rao, then I think it's better not to say it yet!" ”
* did not accept this cold treatment, he submitted it again and again, ** refused again and again.
The reason is very simple, now ** for the purpose of reporting, in the process of reporting must be full of anger, if you ask him at this time, it is very likely to stimulate his anger.
So *** chose to pour a basin of cold water on him when he was angry, and poured cold water on him once he burned it, and over time, ** was also made out of temper by ***.
After he really calmed down, ** took the initiative to discuss the conflict between him and Rao Shushi.
** put forward his dissatisfaction with Rao Shushi from his own point of view, and *** analyzed the misunderstanding caused by his behavior to Rao Shushi from Rao Shushi's point of view.
Only then did he suddenly realize that his behavior had caused others to have such a deep misunderstanding, and after self-reflection, he sent a telegram of self-criticism to the Central China Bureau.
I encountered things and solved big problems, did not find a suitable way to deal with them, deliberately speculated on the behavior of others from my own point of view, so that the contradictions became deeper and deeper, I did things too casually, never thought about the ideas of others, and failed to solve the problem head-on in the whole process. ”
After the self-criticism telegram was published, Rao Shushi was still dissatisfied, he was unwilling to accept **'s self-reflection, and even declared that he would continue to criticize**.
After learning that he continued to be unrelenting, he did not pursue it further, because *** had said to him: Be patient in everything, and to be a politician, you must be patient, have perseverance, and have the heart to forgive others.
Later, someone asked why General ** did not choose to fight back directly at that time, and his answer was:
At that time, I was located in Yan'an, and I was not by his side, and I couldn't fundamentally solve this problem by pointing out and reprimanding each other, it was useless, since it was a useless act, then why do it?
After this remark was published, countless people sighed that the marshal really "can accommodate mountains and rivers in his chest and can pretend to be good in his mind", regardless of the gains and losses bit by bit, and truly achieve the goal of solving problems.
* After experiencing this incident, he also became more and more mature and steady, and he began to pay attention to the emotions of other comrades in the party and further strengthen the unity of the party.
He was an excellent politician, an excellent poet, and an excellent general.
His story also reminds us that when we encounter problems, we must solve them, never think about other people's thoughts from our own point of view, and when we talk openly and honestly, we must consider what the other party will think about this behavior.
Don't blindly express your emotions, learn to listen, learn to tolerate, and learn to make continuous progress in the training again and again.
If you encounter difficulties, then solve them, face the accusations of others with a humble and kind attitude, and constantly improve yourself in the accusations.
