In 1983, deep in the mountains, a PLA soldier with gray temples suddenly appeared, and the purpose of his trip was surprising - to find his long-lost "wife".
Surprisingly, however, they haven't seen each other for 40 years and have started their own families. What's the secret behind this? Follow the curator to decipher the history.
In 1983, a strange PLA soldier appeared in a remote mountain village in my country, with gray hair and strong spirits, like a big man. The villagers knew nothing about the man, but were surprised to find that he knew everything about the village.
He walked straight to a house in the depths of the village, arousing the curiosity and confusion of the surrounding villagers.
When the old man knocked on the door of the village, a strange old woman came out. This old woman made the originally serious PLA veteran can't help but shed tears, he excitedly took the old woman's hand and said, "Sister, I finally found you." ”
The surrounding villagers were stunned by this scene, because the identity of the old woman was not known. She had moved here halfway through, living in a low-key life, living in the deepest part of the village, quiet and unvisited.
Because of her age, everyone thought she had come from exile somewhere else. However, the village chief revealed that the old woman had lived here before, and everyone was not curious about her background.
Originally, he was just an old man who returned to his hometown, but he was involved with the People's Liberation Army. The rank of this PLA is not low, so where is this old man sacred? What is his special relationship with this PLA?
Surprisingly, the PLA fighter smiled and announced that this was his wife, whom he had not seen in forty years. Now the villagers were stunned, it is possible that they have not seen their old friends for many years, but the wife of this PLA soldier is his wife who has not seen him for 40 years.
What's going on? Could it be that this old woman is really the wife of this PLA officer? In fact, the two are not husband and wife, but the story between them is a touching and heartfelt matter of gratitude.
A successful PLA officer, a country woman in her twilight years, why are there entanglements between two identities that were originally unrelated? What's the story between these two?
It turned out that this old PLA soldier was Cai Yong, the founding general of our country, and this old woman was Guo Ruilan, who had a life-saving grace for him.
Cai Yong was unable to move due to injury and could only recuperate at Guo's house. However, in order to find him, the enemy conducted a thorough search of the Guo family, not sparing even the most inconspicuous places.
Cai Yong knew that if he stayed in the Guo family, it might affect their father and daughter, so he decided to leave alone. However, he was seriously wounded and could not escape the pursuit of the enemy at all.
At the critical moment when he was about to be discovered by the enemy, Guo Xiangshan, the father of the Guo family, came up with a plan. He asked his daughter Guo Ruilan to pretend to be Cai Yong's wife, hoping to deceive the enemy, and let Cai Yong pretend to be a patient to avoid the enemy's sight.
However, Cai Yong is firmly opposed to letting Guo Ruilan pretend to be his wife, because it will bring her great danger.
Guo Ruilan is willing to pretend to be Cai Yong's wife and spend time with him because she is convinced that he is a hero. Although such behavior may ruin her reputation, her determination cannot be shaken.
When the enemy suddenly broke in, she did not hesitate to take off her clothes and lay down in Cai Yong's bed. Guo Xiangshan tried to stop the enemy, but to no avail. Fortunately, when the enemy saw the woman crying on the bed and the man coughing next to him, they turned away for fear of infection.
This story teaches us that courage and faith can overcome difficulties, and that we must stand firm in our principles and beliefs even in the face of existential crises.
Cai Yong was a warrior who fought valiantly on the battlefield, and his bravery and tenacity earned him the respect and love of the people. However, in one of the battles, he was unfortunately wounded and was pursued to the end of his life by the enemy.
At this dangerous moment, a group of good people took care of him, protected him, and waited until the enemy left. However, this is not a long-term solution, and if the enemy returns, it is possible to recognize Cai Yong and bring him even greater danger.
So, the father and daughter of the Guo family decided to transfer overnight, and they spent a night carrying Cai Yong on dozens of miles of mountain roads, not daring to stop and rest at all, and finally sent Cai Yong back to the original army before dawn.
For Cai Yong, the father and daughter of the Guo family are his life-saving benefactors, and he has always remembered them, hoping to have the opportunity to repay their kindness. However, this wait was forty years, and it was not until he became the founding general that he met the Guo family father and daughter again.
This story teaches us that kindness and love can transcend time and space, and that it can connect people and become the most precious treasure in our lives.
Cai Yong, a Red Army soldier who rushed to the front line at a young age, his parents and brothers were killed on the battlefield, and his figure made people both worried and admired. His loved ones had already died, and in order to live up to their sacrifices, Cai Yong decided to redouble his efforts and beat the enemy out.
His efforts were recognized by his comrades-in-arms and superiors, and despite his young age, he was successively appointed as a regimental political officer and a section chief of the Political Department of the 2nd Red Regiment.
After the setback of our fifth anti-encirclement and suppression operation, Cai Yong, a young soldier, followed the troops on the road of the Long March. In 1935, at the age of 16, he became a member of the Long March.
However, the first hurdle on the grass made Cai Yong feel more challenging. Grass traps, most commonly in swamps, but the greater threat comes from mosquito bites. These bites carried a contagious virus that China could not resist at the time, and to make matters worse, the Red Army units were extremely short of medicines, and many fighters did not have a sense of personal precautions.
In the ranks of the Red Army, plague was an extremely widespread disease. Especially when crossing grass, swamps can often be detected, and even if we get caught in them, the help of our teammates can help us escape.
But mosquito diseases are unavoidable, they are difficult to prevent, especially at night, and are more likely to bite our soldiers. Cai Yong is an example of a more sensitive mosquito bite reaction.
On the way to cross the grassland of our soldiers, Cai Yong, who was unfortunately bitten by mosquitoes, has persevered with his excellent physical fitness. However, the disease was not affected by his physical fitness, and he unfortunately contracted malaria.
Severe diarrhea left him dehydrated and shivering constantly, and his physical strength was severely reduced. In order not to drag down the troops, he could only follow the ranks slowly. However, the roof leak happened to rain overnight, and when he was unwell, he encountered a torrential rain, and the troops had no rain protection tools, so they could only advance hard.
They urgently set up camp in a wooded area, hoping to make their way after the rainstorm had passed. However, unfortunately, Cai Yong suffered from malaria and was completely drenched, and soon began to have a high fever.
Malaria and a high fever made it difficult for him to resist. Worse, the enemy is coming. The cook could only make ginger tea with the only ginger he had, making him slightly more comfortable.
The troops marched after a rainstorm and the ground was flooded. For Cai Yong's rest, the fighters hung him from a tree with a rope. After everyone saw him resting, they gathered together to keep warm.
However, they did not know that a Kuomintang unit had quietly approached and detected the area where our army was encamped. While the fighters were asleep, the Kuomintang troops quietly waited for the raid.
The enemy scouts were soon discovered by our vigilant soldiers, and the two armies engaged fiercely. The superiors demanded to retreat, but Cai Yong was hung from a tree and could not be put down. The enemy forces have already rushed over, and if they do not retreat, all of them may be killed.
Cai Yong decisively ordered his companions to evacuate, and he was confident that he could find a way to escape. Although the comrades-in-arms were a little confused, at Cai Yong's insistence, they could only leave.
Watching his comrades leave, Cai Yong secretly planned in his heart, he took out a dagger from his leg and decisively cut his calf, which was not self-harm, but to leave a blood stain.
Then he quickly covered his hands with blood, wiped his whole body up and down, hid the rope at his feet, and hung upside down with his head down and pretended to be dead. Unexpectedly, this strategy succeeded, and when a small enemy team passed by, they saw Cai Yong hanging on a tree, and mistakenly thought that their own people had left a warning, so they ignored it and went straight forward.
With his wisdom, Cai Yong successfully avoided the enemy's tracking and saved his life. He hurriedly contacted the troops, cut the rope, and landed smoothly. Cai Yong bandaged his wounds with strips of cloth and quickly caught up with the troops, and everyone applauded his escape from death.
When the victory of the Long March ended, Cai Yong came to Yan'an, the revolutionary base with the army, and at this time, the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression broke out, and the Kuomintang and the Communist Party began to cooperate for the second time to jointly resist Japan.
However, Cai Yong's New Fourth Army faced a huge challenge, not only to resist the sweep of the Japanese soldiers, but also to deal with the "temptation" of the Kuomintang army. In the test of life and death, he used his wits to defeat malaria and escape the pursuit of his enemies.
However, more serious challenges lie ahead. Although the Kuomintang and the Communist Party joined forces to resist Japan, the Kuomintang still secretly carried out blockade and strangulation, and provoked incidents on many occasions, causing contradictions between our army and local warlords.
In Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui, the New Fourth Army led by Cai Yong, the first unit, was active for a while, but this place was once the core ruling area of the Kuomintang, and although they had withdrawn, there were still a large number of spies remaining here.
The main task of these spies is to follow the instructions of the Kuomintang apparatus, constantly provoke disputes, and some even try to ** our army. Faced with this crisis, Cai Yong's troops had to deal with it.
At that time, the overall strength of our army was relatively weak, and the Kuomintang troops thought that the time was ripe and began to lobby, but as a result, some people were really co-opted, including Liu Ziren, a regiment commander of the New Fourth Army.
In the process of soliciting merit from the Kuomintang, Liu Ziren personally arrested a number of Communists, including political commissar Cai Yong. They reached an agreement: Liu Ziren handed over the personnel of our party, and the people would give him a generous gift.
After the other party agreed, Liu Ziren's men secretly arrested many people and locked them in confinement cells. Cai Yong** did not panic, but calmly thought about how to escape.
However, Liu Ziren was cautious and kept them under strict control, even forbidding them to communicate with each other. For three days, Cai Yong could not find a chance to escape, until the evening of the third day, when he found that many of the soldiers guarding them had suddenly disappeared.
PLA fighters **, weak guards, facilitated their escape. They outwitted the guards, seized the guns, and feigned illness to attract attention. The guards paid attention to the physical condition of the key person Cai Yong, and opened the door to check, but they were unexpectedly defeated by them in the dark, successfully took away the ** and quickly escaped.
However, after receiving the report, Liu Ziren quickly noticed the abnormality and mobilized soldiers to rush to the prison. Although the members of our party have fled, they will soon be caught up because they have no means of transportation.
Unfortunately, Cai Yong was hit in the head by a bullet and passed out.
Cai Yong was seriously wounded, and his comrades-in-arms evacuated on stretchers regardless of the danger. Halfway through, he woke up and was deeply moved to see his comrades fighting to the death for themselves.
Regardless of the danger to his own life, he insisted on spreading the news of Liu Ziren's defection to the organization, and at the same time asked his comrades-in-arms to abandon him and leave him in the farmer's house. In the end, the comrades-in-arms decided to put Cai Yong in a farmer's house, and this family was Guo Xiangshan.
Uncle Guo promised to do his best to take care of Cai Yong until reinforcements arrived. After that, the Guo family's father and daughter took care of Cai Yong meticulously, and he always remembered this. Although he has been unable to repay in person because of his busy official business, he has always remembered Uncle Guo's family in his heart.
After the founding of New China, Cai Yong came back once, but Uncle Guo's family had moved away. The village ** is now a traitor to the secret service, Guo Xiangshan fled overnight to protect his daughter, and has been adrift ever since.
After the end of the Korean War, Cai Yong repeatedly asked local departments and mountain villages to help him find him, but to no avail. It wasn't until 1983 that he received news that there was an old woman in the mountain village who matched the description, so he immediately went there, and the opening scene was born.
Guo Ruilan's story of a military and civilian family gave Cai Yongcai an in-depth understanding of their life experiences. Guo Xiangshan is old, and he has been wandering for a long time, and his physical condition has not been good.
Still, he persevered. Eventually, he died of illness shortly after, leaving behind a father and daughter. Guo Ruilan, who has been adrift for many years, cares about her hometown, she decided to ask for the help of the local ** and returned to her long-lost hometown.
After Cai Yong learned what happened to them, he hoped to bring Guo Ruilan to live in the city so that she could live a better life. However, Guo Ruilan politely refused, she didn't want to cause trouble to Cai Yong, and she was not used to life in the city.
Although Guo Ruilan rejected Cai Yong's proposal, Cai Yong did not give up. He will send living expenses to Guo Ruilan every month to do his meager help. Under his careful care, Guo Ruilan was able to enjoy her old age in peace.
During the war years, such things were innumerable. The fighters chose to trust the masses, and the masses chose to save the fighters regardless of the danger. They help each other without asking for anything in return, and this spirit of selfless dedication and collectivism is worthy of learning and inheritance for future generations.
