During the Long March, General Luo Ruiqing served as the head of the security bureau of the Red First Army.
Before crossing the meadow, although the security bureau also prepared some barley, after entering the grassland, there was no one to populate, and it was difficult to replenish the food. Occasionally, I came across one or two households, and the owner had already run away because he had listened to the reactionary propaganda. If there is grain in the house, Luo Ruiqing asks everyone to give a few dollars and leave a note in the house, and if there is no grain in the house, it can only be hungry.
Even if you get a little grain, there are more people and less porridge, and soon there is no grain again.
Luo Ruiqing was injured in the cheek, his mouth could only be half open, he ate very slowly, ate less than everyone else, and was often hungry. One day, the guard saw that he was so hungry that he wanted to prepare something for him to eat, but he was empty-handed and anxious to wipe away his tears. After Luo Ruiqing asked the reason, he wrote a note casually and said, "Yes, you send it to Chen Guang, the commander of the 2nd Division." ”
Chen Guang read the note and couldn't help but laugh,
It turned out that Luo Ruiqing "borrowed" a few cakes from him to eat.
He immediately sent someone to get 8 large cakes from the gang room and handed them to Luo Ruiqing's guards.
However, after the cake was "borrowed", Luo Ruiqing did not eat it alone, but shared it with everyone.
In the 1950s, after Chen Guanghan's unjust death, every time Luo Ruiqing talked about Chen Guang, he said with emotion: "He is a good man, and he saved my life on the Long March Road!" ”
