In 1954, a Hunan peasant woman went to Qingdao to look for her husband. She gave her name and hurriedly sent him to the head of the military region.

On August 4, 1954, a touching scene was staged in the senior cadre ward of Qingdao Sanatorium in Shandong Province. A middle-aged peasant woman who came here from Leiyang, Hunan finally found her husband who had been separated for 26 years. The couple reunited again, which was originally a happy event that everyone was happy with, but it was also a helpless event that made people feel deeply moved.

Times have changed, things have changed and people have changed. 26 years have passed by in a hurry, and the lives of the couple have already changed. This Hunan peasant woman’s name was Wu Daoqing, and her husband’s name was Yang Zhicheng. At that time, she was the First Deputy Chief of Staff and Director of the Logistics Department of the Central and South Military Region, and she had already re-established a family. When he heard Wu Daoqing's name, Yang Zhicheng, the head of the military region, suddenly fell into deep thought, with only two lines of hot tears rolling down his cheeks.

After meeting, Yang Zhicheng and Wu Daoqing looked at each other, speechless. Although they had thousands of words to say in their hearts, they could not say them out. This feeling made Yang Zhicheng feel extremely painful. He, who was already bedridden, could not bear the stimulation at all, and soon fell into a coma with tears in his eyes. At this time, the medical staff nearby rushed forward to provide care and rescue.

Seeing this scene, Wu Daoqing held Yang Zhicheng's hand tightly, choked with sobs and called Yang Zhicheng's name. Meeting Yang Zhicheng again after 26 years of separation, Wu Daoqing finally realized the wish that had always been in her heart. After all, the broken mirror could not be reunited. Looking affectionately at Yang Zhicheng who fell into a coma, Wu Daoqing said goodbye with tears. She repeatedly said: "(Yang) Zhicheng, I am living a good life. Don't miss me. I wish you a speedy recovery. I hope you May you live a long life."

Wu Daoqing left with a smile on her face but tears in her eyes. After a long time, Yang Zhicheng woke up from his coma. He lay blankly on the hospital bed, looking out the window with moist eyes. His thoughts returned to the winter 26 years ago, to the place called Jinggangshan, and to the place called Jinggangshan. At the moment when he first met Wu Daoqing... thinking about it, Yang Zhicheng fell into a coma again.

In February 1928, the Red Army established the Soviet government in Leiyang, Hunan. At that time, under the influence of the environment, 19-year-old Wu Daoqing and his classmates walked out of the girls' school one after another and carried out revolutionary propaganda work outside the school. One morning, Wu Daoqing and several classmates went to the streets of Leiyang County to distribute leaflets and happened to see two Red Army soldiers writing revolutionary slogans on a high wall.

One of the Red Army soldiers stood on the ladder, holding on to the slightly shaky ladder with one hand, and struggling to write with a brush in the other hand; the other Red Army soldier was holding the ladder with one hand and holding it high with the other hand. Wearing buckets filled with white plaster. Seeing this scene, Wu Daoqing hurriedly ran over and helped stabilize the ladder with his hands. Seeing this, the Red Army soldier below happily said to the Red Army soldier standing on the ladder: "Adjutant Yang, the ladder is supported, feel free to write!"

"Adjutant Yang" lowered his head and looked down. After looking at it, he smiled at Wu Daoqing knowingly, then raised his head and continued to write slogans. After a while, the slogan was finished. "Adjutant Yang" came down from the ladder and said to Wu Daoqing: "Thank you, classmate!" At this time, Wu Daoqing could clearly see the face of "Adjutant Yang" - thin He has a resolute face and bright eyes. He is about 20 years old and relatively tall.

At first, Wu Daoqing did not think about anything else. She smiled and asked, "Are you the subordinates of Commander Zhu De?" Another Red Army soldier rushed to answer, "Yes," and then pointed. "Adjutant Yang" said: "This is the adjutant of the headquarters, named Yang Zhicheng!" After Wu Daoqing heard this, he introduced himself generously: "My name is Wu Daoqing, and I am a student at a girls' school!"

< p> At that time, Yang Zhicheng was 25 years old and was responsible for logistics and propaganda work in the Red Army. Yang Zhicheng looked at the propaganda slogan in Wu Daoqing's hand and said with a smile: "It turns out that we are doing the same work. You post it and we write it, so that the city will be full of revolutionary slogans and the power of the revolution will grow stronger." Wu Daoqing laughed. , her smile was so charming that Yang Zhicheng didn't know what to say next.

Wu Daoqing looked at Yang Zhicheng again and suddenly said: "I'm leaving." After saying that, Wu Daoqing turned around and left, joining the classmates who had already walked ahead. Looking at Wu Daoqing's leaving figure, Yang Zhicheng didn't know what was going on. He froze in place with a sense of loss, and did not say goodbye to Wu Daoqing.

At this time, Wu Daoqing and Yang Zhicheng had no idea that a legendary and helpless marriage was about to happen between them.

Shortly after this encounter, Wu Daoqing and his classmates officially joined the Red Army. Due to work needs, Wu Daoqing was sent to the First Division of the Red Army to do propaganda work. At that time, Wu Daoqing was young and beautiful, and he was warmly welcomed by the young soldiers as soon as he arrived at the division headquarters. Wu Daoqing saw everything fresh and had a very strong learning ability. He quickly made the propaganda work effective and was praised by the division leaders.

Soon, the Red Army moved to Jinggangshan and realized the Jinggangshan rendezvous. At this time, Wu Daoqing, who performed well, was transferred to work in the medical department and became a caregiver. As the saying goes, no coincidence can make a book. Not long after Wu Daoqing worked as a caregiver in the medical department, she met Yang Zhicheng again. It turned out that Yang Zhicheng, who was the company commander of the Red Army at the time, was injured during the battle and was escorted to the hospital for treatment by his comrades.

When receiving the nursing task, Wu Daoqing did not know that the person he wanted to take care of was Yang Zhicheng, the "Adjutant Yang" whom he had met by chance before. When Wu Daoqing walked to the hospital bed and saw that slightly familiar face, she couldn't help but scream. Wu Daoqing's cry woke up Yang Zhicheng who was resting in the hospital bed. After the two looked at each other, they laughed in unison.

In the days of being together day and night, Wu Daoqing and Yang Zhicheng became more and more familiar, and they had a special tacit understanding with each other. Once they can't see each other, both Wu Daoqing and Yang Zhicheng feel empty in their hearts. In this way, the revolutionary friendship between Wu Daoqing and Yang Zhicheng continued to heat up, and they developed feelings for each other that they were embarrassed to express. No matter who breaks this layer of window paper first, the spark of love will burst out immediately.

As the relationship between the two heated up, Wu Daoqing's care for Yang Zhicheng gradually became special. One day, Wu Daoqing brought a bowl of hot chicken soup to Yang Zhicheng to condition his body. The material conditions at that time were extremely scarce. The only things that the Red Army soldiers often used to satisfy their hunger were dry food and very few vegetables. Smelling the alluring aroma of chicken soup, Yang Zhicheng asked doubtfully: "Where did you get it?"

Wu Daoqing replied: "When I asked my classmates to go down the mountain for publicity, I bought it from ordinary people's homes. You bleed too much, you must replenish your body!" Yang Zhicheng was very moved, but he said deliberately: "Your classmate is so good!" Yang Zhicheng's words made Wu Daoqing a little angry, and she turned around with the bowl of chicken soup. Then left, and at the same time said in a stiff tone: "My classmates are really good, but I am not!"

When Yang Zhicheng saw that Wu Daoqing was angry, he hurriedly reached out to stop him, and said with a smile: "Comrade Wu Daoqing is the best. Okay, Comrade Wu Daoqing is the best to me!" Wu Daoqing smiled sheepishly, and she turned around again and placed the bowl of chicken soup on the table next to her. Then, Wu Daoqing said shyly: "Drink quickly!" After saying that, Wu Daoqing ran out of the ward quickly.

Looking at Wu Daoqing's back, Yang Zhicheng smiled happily. He picked up the bowl of chicken soup and drank it happily. At this time, the Red Army cadre on the hospital bed next to him smiled and joked: "Company Commander Yang (Yang Zhicheng), is the chicken soup delicious? Hey, why didn't anyone bring me chicken soup?" Yang Zhicheng was stunned for a moment, and then put the bowl away very embarrassedly The chicken soup was handed to the Red Army cadre and said: "I'll save it for you. Drink it! Stop talking! No one will think you are dumb!"

The Red Army cadre took the half bowl of chicken soup and was happy. Hehehe drank it. After a while, Wu Daoqing came back from outside, and she came to bring the empty bowl. When Yang Zhicheng saw Wu Daoqing coming, he hurriedly picked up the empty bowl and handed it to Wu Daoqing's hand. When handing over the empty bowl, Yang Zhicheng held Wu Daoqing's hand. Wu Daoqing's face turned red, and she shouted anxiously: "What are you doing!"

Yang Zhicheng looked at the shy Wu Daoqing affectionately, the words were on his lips, but he didn't know how to say them. Wu Daoqing's heart was beating fast. She was worried that others would gossip, so she quickly took out her hand, turned around and left with the empty bowl. That night, Yang Zhicheng suffered from insomnia, and Wu Daoqing also went to bed very late. The scene that happened during the day turned Wu Daoqing and Yang Zhicheng into "idiots". They laughed unconsciously for a while, and then looked sad because of worries.

Under Wu Daoqing's careful care, Yang Zhicheng's injuries slowly recovered and he was able to get out of bed and walk.

One night, Yang Zhicheng took the initiative to ask Wu Daoqing to meet in the small bamboo forest next to the hospital. The two walked side by side silently. As they walked, Yang Zhicheng mustered up the courage and said: "Comrade Wu Daoqing, do you have any objections to me?" Wu Daoqing looked at it. Looking at Yang Zhicheng, he replied: "Yes, I just have an opinion on you!"

Yang Zhicheng was taken aback and asked hurriedly: "What kind of opinion do you have?" Wu Daoqing smiled and replied: "You Why does this person never consider other people's feelings? Why did you hold my hand last time?" After hearing this, Yang Zhicheng laughed sheepishly. At this time, Yang Zhicheng seized the opportunity and took Wu Daoqing's hand again. Wu Daoqing was ashamed and angry, and tried his best to break free, but because Yang Zhicheng was too strong, Wu Daoqing failed.

At this time, Yang Zhicheng tenderly confessed to Wu Daoqing: "Comrade Wu Daoqing, I like you, are you willing to accept my love for you?" Wu Daoqing finally waited for this moment, and she lowered her head shyly , said sheepishly: "I do!" Upon hearing this, Yang Zhicheng hugged Wu Daoqing into his arms. Not long after, Yang Zhicheng and Wu Daoqing held a simple and warm wedding on Jinggang Mountain, and became a revolutionary couple who respected and loved each other!

After Yang Zhicheng and Wu Daoqing got married, they had a very harmonious relationship. Wu Daoqing had to take care of the wounded in the hospital and also take care of Yang Zhicheng's food and daily life. However, in Wu Daoqing's view, these are what she should do, and she sincerely contributes to the revolution and her family. And Yang Zhicheng also took great care of Wu Daoqing, for fear that his beloved wife would be too tired.

Soon, Wu Daoqing became pregnant. When he learned that he was about to be a father, Yang Zhicheng jumped up with joy. Wu Daoqing also laughed happily when he saw this scene. After that, on Jinggang Mountain, Red Army soldiers could always see Yang Zhicheng walking with the pregnant Wu Daoqing. At that time, Wu Daoqing was worried that others would laugh at him, so he kept a distance from Yang Zhicheng no matter what, or walked in tandem, never side by side.

Every plant and tree on Jinggang Mountain witnessed the true and sincere revolutionary love between Yang Zhicheng and Wu Daoqing. Jinggang Mountain holds the best memories of Yang Zhicheng and Wu Daoqing's lives. However, the moment that may have been anticipated finally came, and Yang Zhicheng and Wu Daoqing had to part ways temporarily. Because the third anti-"encirclement and suppression" campaign has begun, and Yang Zhicheng is going to the front line.

Because Wu Daoqing was pregnant and had difficulty moving, when Yang Zhicheng followed the Fourth Red Army to fight in southern Jiangxi, Wu Daoqing could only stay in Jinggangshan with the Fifth Red Army and the rear agencies. When they parted, both Yang Zhicheng and Wu Daoqing had tears in their eyes and were reluctant to leave. Yang Zhicheng kept saying comforting words to Wu Daoqing, and Wu Daoqing repeatedly told Yang Zhicheng to learn to take care of himself.

Although the separation was sad, both Yang Zhicheng and Wu Daoqing were full of confidence. After defeating the enemy, the couple met soon. However, Yang Zhicheng and Wu Daoqing never imagined that it would be 26 years before they saw each other again. What's going on? At that time, the Red Army was fighting on the outside and did not mobilize the enemy. The Jinggangshan base area was besieged by the enemy.

Under such circumstances, the Fifth Red Army and rear agencies stationed in Jinggangshan were forced to break out. Later, after a series of struggles, the Fifth Red Army finally joined forces with the Fourth Red Army on the outside. During the breakout process of the Fifth Red Army and the rear agencies, the pregnant Wu Daoqing became separated from the team. At that time, the worried Yang Zhicheng asked everyone he met if he had seen his wife Wu Daoqing, a nurse at the Red Army Hospital who had a big belly?

However, everyone shook their heads. The whereabouts of his wife Wu Daoqing are unknown, which makes Yang Zhicheng feel depressed and forget about food and drink. Not long after, the Fifth Red Army returned to Jinggangshan, and Yang Zhicheng kept asking his comrades in the Fifth Red Army to help investigate the whereabouts of his wife Wu Daoqing. At that time, Yang Zhicheng followed the Fourth Red Army to fight guerrillas with the enemy in southern Jiangxi and western Fujian, but his heart was always concerned about the news on Jinggang Mountain, and about his wife Wu Daoqing and his unborn child.

Time passed day by day, and Yang Zhicheng never got news from his wife Wu Daoqing. In that war-torn era, Yang Zhicheng had to consider and prepare for the worst—his wife Wu Daoqing and their unborn child might no longer be alive. Every time he thought about this, Yang Zhicheng was extremely sad; every time he thought about Wu Daoqing and his unborn child, Yang Zhicheng burst into tears.

In the revolutionary years that followed, Yang Zhicheng followed the Red Army on the arduous 25,000-mile Long March and participated in the all-out Anti-Japanese War and the War of Liberation. After the founding of New China, Yang Zhicheng was appointed as the First Deputy Chief of Staff and Minister of Logistics of the Central-South Military Region. During this more than 20-year battle, Yang Zhicheng also experienced three marriages.

In 1954, Yang Zhicheng, who had been in poor health, came to Qingdao Sanatorium for recuperation. It was during his recuperation that a person who Yang Zhicheng had missed for 26 years suddenly appeared. She was Wu Daoqing. As soon as he heard the name "Wu Daoqing", Yang Zhicheng shed tears while lying on the hospital bed. His fragile body could not bear the heavy pressure in his heart, and he fell into coma many times.

When the Fifth Red Army and the rear agencies broke through, where did the pregnant Wu Daoqing go? What happened to her? It turned out that after following the troops to break through, Wu Daoqing quickly fell behind due to inconvenience and lost contact with the troops. Walking alone on a country road, the exhausted Wu Daoqing looked around at a loss. She called her husband Yang Zhicheng's name in her heart, but the name of her husband Yang Zhicheng was not responded to by the sky and the earth.

In such a predicament, Wu Daoqing, who had gone through many hardships, unfortunately fell into the devil's cave. At that time, in order to find the army and her husband Yang Zhicheng, Wu Daoqing, who was in tattered clothes, begged all the way with a big belly and came to a small village in Dafen Town, Suichuan County, Jiangxi Province. What Wu Daoqing didn't expect was that as soon as she walked into this small village, she would be targeted by the vicious landlord.

The landowner had no heirs, and when he saw Wu Daoqing, who was pregnant and homeless, he had evil thoughts in his heart. Soon, Wu Daoqing was imprisoned in an abandoned lime kiln by the landlord for more than four months. In this dark lime kiln, Wu Daoqing struggled to survive every day for the child in his belly. Wu Daoqing tried to break the chains tied to her body and escape, but it was impossible; Wu Daoqing tried to die, but considering her unborn child, she could only live in humiliation.

After four difficult months in the lime kiln, Wu Daoqing gave birth to a little boy, which was the fruit of the love between Wu Daoqing and Yang Zhicheng. However, the little boy was quickly snatched away by the landlord, and Wu Daoqing suddenly lost his spiritual support. Wu Daoqing wanted to die, but the landlord threatened to kill her children if Wu Daoqing dared to die. Under the tremendous mental and physical torture, Wu Daoqing gradually became numb.

Later, Wu Daoqing was forced by the landlord to marry a long-term worker. Wu Daoqing tried to escape many times, but every time she was caught, she was inevitably beaten. Slowly, Wu Daoqing was tortured by humans and ghosts, and she finally accepted her fate. From then on, Wu Daoqing became a taciturn rural peasant woman, living a life like a cow and a horse with the long-term worker whom she despised, and gave birth to two children for the long-term worker.

No one can understand the grief in Wu Daoqing's heart, and no one can understand the suffering Wu Daoqing suffered. Wu Daoqing couldn't help crying whenever she was alone. She wanted to go outside the village to see if the troops were still there, and to see if her husband Yang Zhicheng was still alive. However, when she thought of her current situation, she felt inexplicable sadness in her heart. Just live like this, this is Wu Daoqing's most helpless choice!

After the outbreak of the all-out war of resistance against Japan, Wu Daoqing ushered in a turning point in his life. At that time, because he could no longer survive in the small village, Wu Daoqing was forced to return to his hometown of Leiyang, Hunan, with his husband, a long-term worker, and their two children. Wu Daoqing's tragic experience not only received no sympathy from his father, but also scolded him. His father felt that Wu Daoqing was embarrassing, so he kicked the long-term worker and his two children out of the house, and forced Wu Daoqing to remarry a local businessman.

Wu Daoqing, who was suffering from a miserable life, had no choice at all. Now that this was the case, what else could he do? Although Wu Daoqing later tried to find the child she had with Yang Zhicheng and the two children she had with Chang Gong, they were never found. The tragic fate tortured Wu Daoqing to the point of exhaustion, so she became completely discouraged and gave up everything.

Time flies by, and in the blink of an eye, it is June 1954. By chance, Wu Daoqing meets Wu Yunfu, a former classmate of a girls' school and a good friend who joined the Red Army together on the streets of Leiyang, Hunan. When old friends meet, they naturally burst into tears. After learning what happened to Wu Daoqing, Wu Yunfu was heartbroken.

However, when things have reached this point, who can say anything more?

After thinking about it, Wu Yunfu finally decided to tell Wu Daoqing about Yang Zhicheng's situation. When he heard the name "Yang Zhicheng", Wu Daoqing was stunned for a moment, and then fell into deep thought. After a long time, Wu Daoqing slowly asked Wu Yunfu: "Is he okay?" Wu Yunfu told Yang Zhicheng's situation in detail over the past 20 years. After hearing this, Wu Daoqing murmured: "That's good, that's good!" No one knows what Wu Daoqing felt in his heart after learning the news about Yang Zhicheng. Soon after, after intense ideological struggle, Wu Daoqing finally decided to meet Yang Zhicheng, thus fulfilling his last wish in life. At first, Wu Daoqing contacted the relevant departments of the Central and South Military Region and learned that Yang Zhicheng was recuperating in Hangzhou. When Wu Daoqing came to Hangzhou, he learned that Yang Zhicheng had transferred to Qingdao for recuperation.

Immediately afterwards, Wu Daoqing rushed from Hangzhou to Qingdao. When the staff told the name "Wu Daoqing" to Yang Zhicheng, who was lying in bed to treat his illness, Yang Zhicheng couldn't help but burst into tears. He was both sad and happy in his heart - after 26 years, he finally found Wu Daoqing; after 26 years, time has passed. Everything has changed already! Later, under the arrangement of the staff, Wu Daoqing finally met Yang Zhicheng, her husband who had been separated for 26 years.

After meeting, Yang Zhicheng and Wu Daoqing were filled with emotions. They must have a lot to say, but they didn't know how to say it. Faced with such a helpless situation, Yang Zhicheng, who was already ill, fell into a coma because his body could no longer bear it. In this way, the scene we talked about at the beginning of the article occurred - a Hunan farmer came to Qingdao to find a husband, named him and hurriedly sent him to the head of the military region. After the meeting, the head of the military region burst into tears and passed out.

Wu Daoqing could not have expected such a result. She recalled her accidental acquaintance, mutual affection, marriage, and childbirth with him 26 years ago in Jinggangshan. She was so happy and happy. ah! She recalled that in the past 26 years, she had been trapped in a devil's cave, experienced hardships, and suffered all kinds of grievances. Does he know all of this? Do you understand? Do you regret it? A simple meeting fulfilled Wu Daoqing's last wish. When she left, there were clear tears on her smiling cheeks.

Fortune plays tricks on people, so everyone has to settle for their destiny. In the days that followed, Yang Zhicheng always kept Wu Daoqing in his heart, always caring and helping Wu Daoqing; and Wu Daoqing was relieved, everything had passed, and the world was so unpredictable. Since it was impossible to reunite, let's put this inseparable feeling Bury it in your heart! In February 1967, Yang Zhicheng died of illness in Beijing at the age of 64; in the summer of 1982, Wu Daoqing died of illness in his hometown of Leiyang, Hunan at the age of 73!
