When we think of the Founding Fathers, we always think of Marshal Zhu De, who was not only a great Marxist, a great proletarian revolutionary, a politician, a military man, but also one of the main founders of the Chinese People's Liberation Army.
As the founding father of our country, he not only took the lead on the battlefield before the founding of New China, but also was able to fulfill his responsibilities for party building after the founding of New China, always maintained the party's organizational discipline throughout his life, set an example by example, maintained the fine work style of the Communist Party of China, and also achieved a lot of fruitful work.
He has also visited other countries many times after the founding of the People's Republic of China, which has enhanced the friendship between our country and other countries and promoted the development of China's diplomacy. Undoubtedly, he is a well-known and excellent figure in our country, and the daughter of the marshal is also very good.
Even after going through hardships in her youth, she eventually grew into an excellent woman, she was Zhu Min. She is Jude's only daughter, who suffered in a Nazi concentration camp and could not forgive her mother for the rest of her life.
The marriage fails and the daughter is unhappy
Zhu De's fourth wife was He Zhihua, a native of Sichuan, and this marriage lasted a short time, so few people know that he had his only daughter, Zhu Min, in this marriage.
At that time, Zhu De and He Zhihua were living in the Soviet Union, and due to the development of the domestic situation, Zhu De needed to return to China, but his daughter was not yet in January, and the situation was still unstable at that time, so he left his wife and daughter in the relatively safe Soviet Union.
But soon after Zhu De returned to China, He Zhihua transferred his feelings and sent his daughter back to his hometown in Sichuan. So Zhu Min grew up with her grandmother in Sichuan, and when she grew up, she rarely had the company of her parents, and stayed with her grandmother until she was 12 years old.
During the national joint anti-Japanese war, Zhu De entrusted Premier Zhou and Deng Yingchao to take Zhu Min to his side, but at that time, Zhu Min's grandmother insisted on not letting Zhu Min leave because she was reluctant to do so, and two years later Zhu De personally went to Zhu Min's grandmother's house and took away her daughter, so that at the age of 14, Zhu Min really enjoyed his father's love.
A foreign country, suffering a lot
On January 30, 1941, Zhu Min was sent to the Soviet Union to study with the children of other revolutionaries of the same age, and in order to conceal Zhu Min's identity and protect her safety, her father renamed her "Chiying".
But this time the road to learning made Zhu Min suffer a lot. Soon after they arrived in the Soviet Union, World War II entered a white-hot point, so the Soviet-German War broke out, and Zhu Min, who was recuperating in the Minsk Young Pioneers summer camp in Belarus due to illness, was unfortunately hunted down and taken prisoner by the German army. He and a group of other captured children were imprisoned for two years, during which time not only living conditions were poor and even basic food and clothing were not guaranteed.
In 1943, Zhu Min and several other captives were loaded into a stuffy tanker, and the Germans wanted to send them to Nazi concentration camps. Because the stuffy tank truck is tight and airtight and very crowded, it will not be opened to let them ventilate on the way, and it will not be specially parked to make them convenient, so the stuffy tank truck is full of odor in one day.
After two days in the stuffy tank truck, Zhu Min fell ill and had a high fever, but she kept insisting, she was afraid that the German army would know about her and abandon her, so that there was no hope of survival.
Finally they arrived at the Nazi concentration camp, where they were also searched before being put in prison, and Zhu Min, fearing that his identity would be revealed, took the Lenin medallion he was carrying in his mouth and pressed it under his tongue, and was not discovered by the Germans.
Life in the Nazi concentration camps was no better than before, and they ate moldy bread every day and lived in damp, dim, and foul-smelling houses. In addition, the young girls were assigned to heavy work in the arsenal.
It was winter, Zhu Min's hands were frozen and frostbitten, sometimes she couldn't move things, but when she couldn't move, she would be beaten, so even if her hands were frozen and swollen, she worked hard, so that a pair of hands would always be ground out of blood. Zhu Min, who was in adolescence at the time, could not keep up with nutrition, her hair fell little by little, and she was still skinny and boneless, and her height was no longer growing.
Zhu Min once had a cervical lymph node in prison, and when she was severe, her neck was swollen and pus and blood were all over her collar, so the prison guards took her to a simple medical room, and without anesthesia or disinfection, the doctor directly cut the ulcer of her neck with scissors and squeezed out pus blood.
At that time, Zhu Min was in pain and almost fainted, and there was a long scar on his neck afterwards. In the New Year of 1945, the Soviet Red Army came to the German camp, after a fierce battle, the German army collapsed, soon after the concentration camp German army has all fled, in this situation, the prison people are in a hurry to escape, Zhu Min and a few friends decided to flee to the Soviet Union.
On the way to the Soviet Union, they picked up all the food they could eat on the road and struggled to survive, but sometimes when they came to one place, there would be an unexpected war, once Zhu Min was lost with several of her companions, and Zhu Min, who was wandering alone, was found by others and sent to a Soviet refugee shelter.
In the shelter, he met a Chinese who served as the political commissar in the shelter, and when the political commissar saw that she was a Chinese, he kept asking her identity in disguise, and zhu Min had been hiding his true identity at the beginning. However, in the subsequent exchange, Zhu Min found that the political commissar was not an outsider, so he truthfully told the political commissar that he was Zhu De's daughter.
The commissar was shocked because the Soviet high command had been looking for this distinguished man, but had not been able to find him, so much so that they all thought that Zhu Min had been persecuted by the Germans. After that, Zhu Min was sent to Moscow.
Looking back on a lifetime, it is most difficult to forgive my mother
After returning to Moscow, Zhu Min did not want to return to China immediately because of her terrible experience here, but always remembered that her father let her learn to serve the motherland in the Soviet Union.
So she decided that she must succeed in the Soviet Union and return to the country, and finally she completed her university studies in the Soviet Union before returning to China in 1953. After returning to China, he was assigned to Beijing Normal University as a professor of the Russian language department, as a people's teacher who cultivated talents for the state.
He never blamed her father for all the sufferings she had suffered before, but she could not forgive her mother.
On the one hand, because when she was less than one year old, she was abandoned by her mother, and she left her alone in her grandmother's house, and she did not give him maternal love in the process of growing up, when her father was inseparable from the needs of the country and could not take care of her, she could understand, but her father once went to her grandmother's house to see her. However, her mother never looked at her after marrying someone else, which made her very disappointed.
On the other hand, she could not forgive her mother because her mother had betrayed the Chinese Communist Party, and her mother He Zhihua, after marrying He Jiaxing, did cover work for the party in Shanghai, and when she did not resist the temptation for her own interests, she used the convenience of her position to inform the Kuomintang, resulting in an important Communist being arrested and persecuted by the Kuomintang.
This traitorous act made Zhu Min feel faceless himself, and he was unable to forgive his mother for what she had done.
brief summary:
As the only daughter of Marshal Zhu De, Zhu Min did not live a happy life because of her father in her childhood, and she suffered in a Nazi concentration camp in a foreign country, and did not reveal her true identity when facing life threats many times, and she is undoubtedly an incomparably strong and brave girl.
The bumpy experience in the Soviet Union did not allow her to flee back to china immediately when she was safe, but always remembered her father's desire to let him study hard, so she stayed in the Soviet Union until she graduated from college before returning to her father.
After joining the work, she never made a special because of her father's status, did not live with her father for a long time, but lived in the collective dormitory of Beijing Normal University like everyone else, and her later years were spent in the staff dormitory.
After his retirement, he still had the desire to serve the country, and together with other comrades, he founded a college of higher learning to train adults, continued to contribute to the country's education, and personally wrote a book - "My Father - Zhu De", so that everyone could understand Marshal Zhu De more deeply.
