Many people like to write down its traces silently, but unlike many people, General Song Shilun likes to quietly "graft" it on his children.
In the Battle of Chosin Lake to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the three corps of the 9th Corps of the Chinese People's Volunteer Army fought a direct contest in the Chosin Lake area of Korea from November 27 to December 24, 1950 with the US 10th Army, which is world-class in weapons and equipment and with outstanding combat achievements, under difficult and difficult conditions, creating a record of completely annihilating a whole regiment of the US army in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, forcing the US military ace troops to experience the "longest retreat" in history. This campaign recaptured a vast area in the east north of the 38th Parallel. The volunteer army won a great victory on both the eastern and western fronts, reversing the situation on the battlefield in one fell swoop, becoming an inflection point in the Korean War and laying the foundation for victory in the final armistice negotiations.
General of the Song Dynasty
Recently, the Battle of Chosin Lake was put on the screen and became a hot topic. In the movie, the war scenes are wonderful and atmospheric, and the record of my Ninth Corps in annihilating the enemy polar bear regiment is very brilliant. Behind this is that because of the extremely cold weather, the number of non-combat personnel of our army who were frozen to frostbite reached more than 40,000, accounting for nearly one-third of the entire number of participants in the entire corps of the 9th Corps. This casualty ratio is the only one in the combat history of our army's corps. Therefore, in the picture of the movie "Chosin Lake", there is a scene of paying tribute to the remains of my "ice sculpture" officers and men when the US army retreats, and the US officers who are the leaders cannot help but exclaim: "We will never be able to defeat them!" ”
As the commander and political commissar of the 9th Corps, General Song Shilun naturally had his own family affairs after the battlefield. First of all, his daughter Song Lanying came to Shanghai from her hometown in 1949 to find him, and the father-daughter reunion was very happy, but he felt that his daughter's name was not loud enough, so he renamed his daughter Song Zhixian, hoping that her daughter would set great ambitions first and then do revolution.
Movie Lake Chosin
General Song Shilun was ordered to fight in Korea, and Song Zhixian also joined the army and went to the battlefield with him, but just after going to the northeast, Song Zhixian was seriously injured in the waist of the car accident. The injury was not recovered quickly, not to mention that she was still injured in the waist. After a period of treatment, Song Zhi first went home to recuperate. Because of her mobility, she also needed to be taken care of, and the heavy responsibility of taking care of her fell on the shoulders of Zheng Jisi, the second wife of General Song Shilun.
The general experienced a rain of bullets in the front, his wife brought tea and food for his daughter behind him, and when the battlefield returned, the daughter said movingly: "Mother is so good to me!" The general said, "That's because we have a good relationship with each other!" The daughter skimmed her lips and did not fully believe what the general said: "I see that my mother has high moral character, political quality, and ideological cultivation!" The general followed his daughter's words, "Then you are blessed!" The daughter said proudly, "I am so blessed to meet Jisi's mother!" ”
Zheng Jisi, a native of Shanwei Town, Haifeng County, Guangdong Province, nicknamed Lihua, also known as Zheng Hui. Born in a famous family, he changed his name to Zheng Jisi when he was admitted to Shanghai Feng Junior Normal School at the age of 14. At the age of 16, he worked as a miscellaneous servant in Guangzhou Sun Yat-sen Hospital and studied at the Senior Nursing School of Yat-sen Hospital. In 1935, as a backbone of students, he participated in the "129" anti-Japanese movement. He joined the Communist Party of China in 1936. In October 1937, he rushed to Yan'an, the holy land of revolution.
Song Shilun and family
In 1941, Zheng Jisi married Song Shilun, who was then teaching at the military academy, and became a revolutionary partner. At this time, the 30-year-old Song Shilun and the original Zou clan had been divorced for more than 10 years, and in order to avoid dragging down the family, Song Shilun ended the two-year marriage with the original Zou clan in 1927. Song Zhixian was the daughter of him and the original Zou clan.
In the revolutionary years, there was no red candle to warm the bed, and there was no so-called flower before the moon, Qingqing and me, and the two moved their respective bedding together, even if they were married. It is said that Song Shilun, who really did not have a gift to his wife at that time, gave Zheng Jisi a Browning pistol he had captured from the battlefield as a gift for the two to use for self-defense.
After marriage, Song Shilun and Zheng Jisi had a daughter, named Song Chongshi. Born in Yan'an in 1944, Song Chongshi studied at Nanjing Zhongshan East Road Primary School, Nanjing Second Girls' Middle School, and Capital Normal University. After graduating from university, he underwent two years of re-education on the farm of the Platon Army. In 1970, he was assigned by the organization to become a teacher. In an interview with reporters after retiring in 2000, Song Chongshi said: "My father gave me this name in the hope that I would worship the facts. He also said, "Father has always warned us to be human with our tails between our legs." In this way, Song Chongshi's name also has traces of the years of his father Song Shilun 'grafting", and "worshiping facts" is the same as "first standing in the opposite direction", which is also one of the ideals and beliefs that General Song Shilun insisted on during the revolutionary years.
When he married Song Shilun, Zheng Jisi was 25 years old, nearly 10 years younger than Song Shilun, but the delicacy of this famous Miss Qianjin did not have the problems and temper of a "little girl", and some were just industrious and simple with the revolutionary years, and became a famous "Xianneisuke" in the revolutionary team that year. After the arrival of the daughter of her husband and ex-wife, Zheng Jisi regarded Song Zhixian as his own, took care of her life, arranged for her to go to school, and encouraged her to join the party, which is why Song Zhixian finally became a state cadre. It is precisely because of this that Song Zhixian is happy in his stepmother's happiness, especially during her injury, Zheng Jisi is even more meticulous, from ideological education and life to the extreme, the relationship between the two is very harmonious, so that General Song Shilun has no worries on the battlefield ahead.
However, such a gentle and virtuous wife, a female cadre who also came out of the smoke of the revolution, died of illness in December 1967 at the age of 51. Before leaving, she was very relieved that her husband, General Song Shilun, who was already more than 60 years old, hoped that General Song Shilun could take her sister Zheng Xiaocun to her side and let life take care of her. In the face of such a "will", General Song Shilun tearfully agreed, but the death of his wife Zheng Jisi hit him hard, and it was not until 4 years later that he took his wife and sister over.
Song Chongshi
Zheng Jisi's sister is called Zheng Xiaocun, Zheng Xiaocun was born in 1940, in his early years in Shanghai, he lived in the home of his sister Zheng Jisi, Zheng Jisi loved his sister very much, and he was also relieved about his sister before leaving, so he also had such an explanation to General Song Shilun. In the summer of 1971, in order to fulfill Zheng Jisi's last wishes, General Song Shilun took Zheng Xiaocun to his residence in Beijing. Zheng Xiaocun's arrival made General Song Shilun, who had been immersed in grief and had been alone, feel a little warmth in his heart, and in 1972, with the approval of the organization, the two were officially married.
At that time, General Song Shilun was 65 years old, Zheng Xiaocun was 32 years old, one was an old man with white hair, and the other was a young woman who was in her youth. Many old comrades-in-arms saw Song Shilun and said, "Old Song, you are very blessed!" The general laughed but did not answer. The next two soon had a daughter, Song Baiyi. The reason why I gave my daughter this name is because when my daughter was born, the ages of the two were exactly 101 years old, and the name reflected more of the general's memory of the years, and the success of his marriage with Zheng Xiaocun was rumored by many people to talk about beauty.
Song Baiyi
In 1991, the general died of illness in Shanghai at the age of 84. During his serious illness, the old general's consciousness was not very clear. Once an old comrade who had been engaged in underground work in Shanghai came to see him and said in his ear: "Elder Song, when you were the commander of the police in the liberation of Shanghai, I had just come out of the 'underground' (referring to underground work) ..." The old general listened very humorously and said: "Now, I am going to go underground..." This made Zheng Xiaocun, who had been meticulously taking care of him in the hospital, laugh, for more than ten years, she has been accompanying the general around, taking care of the general's life in his later years like a sister, but a few days later, on September 17, The general died forever.
Zheng Xiaocun and General Song Shilun spent 19 years together, coincidentally when General Song Shilun died, she was just 51 years old, and her sister Zheng Jisi left General Song Shilun at the age of 51. In this coincidental figure, we see in some information that General Song Shilun also had a son named Song Wuyi.
We don't know if the name Song Wuyi is related to the number "51", but we know that "51" is a "trace" of life and death for Zheng Xiaocun and his sister Zheng Jisi, as well as for General Song Shilun. At the end of 1991, Zheng Xiaocun retired from the post of director of the kindergarten of the Chinese Academy of Military Sciences and enjoyed the treatment of deputy military, and she and Song Baiyi, the daughter of General Song Shilun, grew up to become an angel dressed in white. There are traces of time, and General Song Shilun "grafted" it into the names of his children, and also let people learn some information about him through these names.
