January 6, 1972 was a sad day for the Chinese people!
Because on this day, the great founding marshal ** died!
On January 10, a memorial meeting was held in the Babaoshan Auditorium in Beijing, and then in the conference room on the east side of the Babaoshan Auditorium, everyone discussed the specific arrangements for the memorial service.
So what happened next?
Why is this question asked to **'s son during the funeral?
And during the ceremony, why did Prince Sihanouk of Cambodia suddenly get in the car and leave?
Prince Sihanouk.
Today, I will talk to you about the story after the death of **.
*Died at midnight on January 6, 1972.
And *** decided to attend the memorial service of **, which was temporarily decided at noon on January 10.
In fact, according to the usual practice, this time is the time to rest after lunch, but after lunch that day, there is no sleepiness.
After a while, at about 1:30 p.m., ** suddenly notified the staff around him and asked them to immediately transfer the car and go to the memorial service of **.
The staff around them didn't dare to be sloppy, so they immediately transferred the car and notified *** and Wang Dongxing, and ** quickly put on their coats and got on the bus.
Wang Dongxing. **'s memorial service, for ***, is very sad.
And the reason for the sorrow is because *** wants to hold a memorial service for his brotherly comrades-in-arms.
When he learned that *** was going to participate, ** immediately decided to increase the scale of the memorial service, and also notified Vice Chairman Song Qingling to participate.
But that's not enough!
Subsequently, he personally invited Prince Sihanouk, the head of state of Cambodia, who was in Beijing, to invite the prince and his wife to attend the memorial service of the marshal as the only foreign friends.
Babao Mountain, at the entrance of the auditorium, the staff is putting a piece 10 meters long and 1 wideA 5-metre wooden plaque is hung from the roof and fixed to the cement edge above the front of the auditorium.
*Memorial service. The wooden plaque is covered with a black cloth at the moment, and there are seven big characters cut out of white paper on it, each of which is one meter large.
The hall has been arranged at this time, and there is a huge statue of ** hanging in front of it, and an urn of ** is placed on the mourning platform below the statue, which is covered with the flag of the Communist Party of China.
Looking around, next to the right side of the urn, there is a wreath sent by ***, followed by the Communist Party of China, the Military Commission, the National People's Congress, and the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.
There is an inexplicable sadness in all this placement!
Soon after, reporters from **News Film Studio, **TV Station, Xinhua News Agency and other news units arrived.
The guards at the gate carefully checked the reporters' documents and equipment, and after checking that everything was correct, the reporters came to the hall, chose a shooting location, and began to prepare.
*。Maybe God was reluctant to let the marshal pass away, and suddenly, snowflakes fell from the sky one after another.
After a while, Babaoshan was wrapped in silver, just like God laid a piece of white veil on the earth to show mourning in order to commemorate the death of **.
The snow kept falling, and there was no intention of stopping at all.
The long queue of vehicles also drove into Babao Mountain one after another, and the black cars and the black veils on their arms also formed a sharp contrast with the snowflakes in the sky.
At this moment, a van drove in from the west gate of Babaoshan, and the people of the funeral committee hurriedly greeted it after seeing it.
When the car stopped, I saw two young men helping a woman out of the car, this woman had a haggard face, full of sorrow, and looked completely devoid of energy.
Zhang Qian, **, and this woman is the wife of **, Zhang Qian.
Then Zhang Qian came to the lounge with support, and the waiter also brought Zhang Qian and her children cups of hot tea to ward off the cold, Zhang Qian nodded to express her gratitude.
The staff of the funeral committee came forward and introduced the preparations and procedures of the memorial service to Zhang Qian, and Zhang Qian did not make any requests during the whole process.
After the report, Zhang Qian said to the staff
"Thank you, I've been giving you a little trouble these past few days. ”Immediately afterwards, a solemn red flag car came from the west gate of Babaoshan, and after the car stopped in the auditorium, the familiar figure also appeared in front of everyone.
"The Prime Minister is here, the Prime Minister is here! ”People told each other, and everyone began to look in the direction of ***.
After getting out of the car, I didn't rush into the auditorium, but first looked up at the snowy sky, and then looked at the snow on the ground.
Immediately afterwards, ** said to the secretary next to him:
"This kind of day is prone to accidents, and you should inform the relevant units to pay attention to traffic safety. ”After finishing speaking, ** notified the person in charge of the Municipal Public Security Bureau and said:
"After a while, the leading comrades will come, the road is slippery and difficult to walk, you must strengthen the guidance and absolutely ensure the safety of the leaders! ”
**。After hearing this, the leaders of the public security bureau said that they would definitely handle traffic safety.
Subsequently, under the leadership of the staff, ** went to check the furnishings of the lounge so that *** and other VIPs could rest.
After walking into the house, **looked around the furnishings in the house, sofas, coffee tables, teacups, ashtrays, etc. were all placed in an orderly manner, clean and hygienic, and nodded with satisfaction.
However, the worried *** was still not at ease, so I went to the sofa where *** and Prince Sihanouk and others were going to sit and tried it to check the softness of the sofa.
Then, ** asked uneasily:
"What about temperature? ”
The staff replied:
"22 degrees Celsius. ”Finally, a satisfied smile appeared on his face, and then he went to check somewhere else.
Walking out of the lounge, he saw a few workers from Babaoshan waiting for him, walked over quickly, held the worker's hand and said that it was hard work.
The workers also replied excitedly that it was not hard.
Immediately afterwards, ** went to other places, and the workers witnessed this scene and admired it even more.
Finally, after reviewing and checking everything, ** also stopped and rested for a while.
**Couple. At this time, there were already a lot of responsible persons of various ministries and commissions, headquarters of the Military Commission, and various branches of the armed forces in the house.
** I didn't care about resting, and I went here to entertain everyone.
It's time for the meeting soon, and the *** Song Qingling, ** and others who participated in the memorial service also came to the auditorium one after another.
**Go and shake hands with them one by one, look at your watch again, and ask:
"When will the Prince and Lady arrive? ”The staff replied that it would arrive immediately.
**After hearing this, he walked to the west gate of the auditorium and waited, and in less than two minutes, Prince Sihanouk and his wife took a red flag car to Babaoshan.
Prince Sihanouk and his wife.
** Greeted the Prince and his wife as they arrived, and then escorted them into the lounge and introduced the leaders to the Prince and his wife.
Just as *** was talking, a staff member walked in and said something to ***.
It turned out to be *** arrived!
Everyone stood up in unison and waited for the arrival of ***.
A few Hongqi cars stopped at the west gate of Babaoshan, and the previous car came down was Wang Dongxing, and Wang Dongxing went to help *** pull the car door after he came down.
**Greeted him and shook ***'s hand,**also walked into the hall with ***.
Accompanied by ***, ** came to the third room to meet Prince Sihanouk and his wife, and the two sides had a very friendly conversation.
**。After chatting for a while, **stepped forward to greet ***'s wife and children were resting in the second room to see when they would go over and see.
** got up from the sofa and decided to go to see Zhang Qian and the children immediately.
After entering the second room, ** stretched out his hand to Zhang Qian from afar, and Zhang Qian immediately held ***'s hand, and began to cry like rain before he could say anything.
*The child Chen Haosu couldn't help crying when he saw this scene.
After a brief greeting, **introduced the situation of the child to ***, and shook hands with them.
**Kindly ask the children:
"Which of you is in science? ”Chen Haosu. Chen Haosu replied:
"I work in the Seventh Machine Department. ”Then *** asked about the other children one by one.
Towards the end of the conversation, Zhang Qian cared about the hope that *** would have a good rest and not attend the memorial service, otherwise she would be too tired.
But *** shook his head, still insisted on attending the memorial service, and asked the staff to put a piece of black yarn on his sleeve.
The time is almost up, ** signal the staff to get ready and start the meeting immediately.
The news of the upcoming meeting immediately spread to all posts, and everyone checked their readiness for the last time.
The staff in charge of playing mourning music in the auditorium checked the loudspeaker again, but at that time it was still an old-fashioned loudspeaker and needed to be turned on to warm up.
*。Therefore, the staff warmed up the machine early, and just waited for an order, and then they could play mourning music for the memorial service of **.
The staff in charge of the heater also checked the circuit and the machine again, and only after seeing that the indoor temperature was normal, he was relieved.
The guards inside and outside the auditorium are all on first-level alert!
"**The memorial service starts now, a moment of silence! ”The memorial service was presided over by Li Desheng, alternate member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China and director of the General Political Department of the People's Liberation Army.
Immediately afterwards, the mourning music sounded in the square outside the hall and auditorium, and people bowed their heads to the statue of ** in the sound of mourning, pinning everyone's sorrow.
After the mourning stopped, ** slowly walked to the microphone on the right, glanced at the venue, and said in a low voice:
"It is with great sadness that we mourn **.Deng Yingchao.
This eulogy of less than 500 words** was read very painfully, slowly, and even because of two choked up, I almost couldn't read it.
Outside the hall, the staff of the Broadcasting Bureau skillfully adjusted the machine and adjusted the sound to the best acoustics.
At the time of ***'s eulogy, some people were already in tears.
** was also infected, his face was full of sad looks, loyal, wise and brave ** left himself like this, it was inevitably a big blow and pain.
When *** read "**Comrade rest in peace", suddenly there was a deafening "buzz" sound from the loudspeaker.
After that, there was no sound.
All the people present were taken aback, first looking up at *** and then looking around, not knowing what was going on.
When the three staff members of the Broadcasting Bureau heard this voice, they were so frightened that their faces turned white and their hands trembled.
3 staff hurriedly debugged the machine, moved here, touched there, but couldn't find out that it was a malfunction.
At this time, people from the funeral committee and the public security bureau also came here to see what was going on.
In the hall, ** is as calm and unhurried as ever.
I first tapped the megaphone twice with my hand, and when I saw that there was no response, I realized that something unexpected had happened.
So what the hell should *** do?
I don't know what happens, ** understand, I must not panic.
**。In this case, ** first comforted the infield situation, and then resolutely decided to send *** and Prince Sihanouk out of the hall.
**Understand, to absolutely guarantee the safety of *** and foreign heads of state.
Then Prince Sihanouk and *** got into the car and left, ** watched them leave Babaoshan before returning to the hall.
After returning to the hall, ** immediately called the person in charge of the funeral committee and asked:
"What's going on? Find it out for me right away. ”Immediately afterwards, ** signaled Li Desheng not to panic and continue to preside over the memorial service.
Without a megaphone, Li Desheng had to raise his voice to preside over the memorial service.
Li Desheng. Fortunately, the memorial service did not become chaotic because of this episode, and everyone continued to participate in the memorial service following Li Desheng's process.
One bow, another bow, three bows.
People said goodbye to ** in tears, and many people bent down for a long time before they straightened up.
There is no mourning, people have to say goodbye to ** silently, but it does not affect everyone's tribute and nostalgia for **.
After the memorial service, **'s ashes were placed in the lattice at No. 44 in the upper right of the front of the columbarium.
Since then, there has been one less outstanding leader in the ranks of the leadership of our country, our party, and our army.
And the columbarium of Babaoshan Revolutionary Cemetery has the ashes of another great man!
*。On January 11, major newspapers across the country published the news that the memorial service was held at the Babaoshan Revolutionary Cemetery in Beijing on the front page.
The People's **" published the news of the comrade's memorial service on the first page, with the title "The capital solemnly held a memorial meeting for comrades, and the great leader *** participated in the memorial service".
In addition, the Honorable Prince Sihanouk also ordered the flag to be flown at half-mast at the official residence of the Cambodian head of state for three days, and Prince Binnu and his wife also ordered three wreaths to be sent to the mourning hall after learning of the death of **.
Many well-known Japanese personalities have also sent messages of condolence, remembering their friendship with the foreign minister during his lifetime.
The snow pressed the clouds in the western mountains, and the cemetery mourned the public sleep.**。This is a poem entitled "Mourning for Comrade **", which was created by the broad masses of revolutionaries in memory of Marshal **.Dan is ambitious to win a thousand battles, and the white-haired pride is shocking.
The literary style is appreciated by everyone, and the world is competing for it.
The loyal soul jumped on the horse and went to kill Yama and smashed the nine springs.
Looking back on his life, the ** marshal can be said to have truly seen the world and all living beings.
