In early 1974, General Wang gradually felt unwell. In November, after vomiting blood, the doctor examined it, opened the abdominal cavity, and found that it was stomach cancer.
The general's original wife, Han Xiuyan, heard the news that General Wang was suffering from cancer, and her face turned white. Her brother, known as "a knife", was the chief of surgery, and she thought that if she let her brother personally take the knife, she might be able to save General Wang's life.
However, when Han Xiuyan bought supplements and wanted to go to Nanjing to see General Wang. The general's guards politely refused, saying, "General Wang, he said he didn't want to see you again, so don't come."
Han Yuyan Muran dropped the phone and froze wordlessly.
In late April 1978, General Wang's condition deteriorated. When he was critically ill, the general did not ask anything, but only asked his family: "Has Zhang Lisan not come yet?" Where is he? I must meet him. ”
Zhang Lisan was an old subordinate and comrade-in-arms of General Wang. The two have been working together since the days of the Red Army. Life and death, common suffering.
When General Wang was the commander of the regiment, Zhang Lisan was the captain of the regimental health team; when General Wang was the commander of the 6th Column and the commander of the 12th Army, Zhang Lisan served as the director of the 6th Column Health Department and the health minister of the 12th Army.
Twenty years of military career, Wang Jinshan and Zhang Lisan have been together. In battle, each saved each other's lives. Sometimes wang was angry near the mountain, and no one could persuade him. The only way was to hurry up and ask Zhang Lisan to come over. Zhang Lisan came, without opening his mouth, Wang Jinshan immediately calmed down, and the fire gradually disappeared.
At the end of April 1978, Wang Jinshan entered a critical moment of illness. He knew that he had no hope of life and was about to die, so he kept asking his family: "Has Zhang Lisan not come yet?" Why hasn't he come yet? I must meet him. ”
After Zhang Lisan learned of the situation of the old leader, he hurried to the hospital, and when the two met, they clasped their hands and tears came out of their eyes. Although Zhang Lisan is an experienced doctor and knows that serious patients should not be overly excited, neither of them can suppress the affection of their comrades-in-arms.
After a long silence, in order to alleviate the uncomfortable atmosphere of the sinking sun, Zhang Lisan forgot that he was a ward and took out a cigarette.
Zhang Lisan took out a cigarette and was about to light a fire, when Wang Jinshan saw it, he said in a weak voice, "You don't want to smoke." ”
Wang Jinshan is not a smoker, but Zhang Lisan has been smoking very badly. In the past, Wang Jinshan repeatedly advised him to quit smoking, but Zhang Lisan did not quit.
"You don't smoke." Zhang Lisan was very excited after hearing these 6 words. He said, "I'll quit smoking in front of you today." "Throw away your cigarettes and lighters on the spot!"
Wang Jinshan, who was critically ill, finally saw Zhang Lisan, and it seemed that his wish had been fulfilled, and he fell into a deep coma that night.
Two days later, on May 10, 1978, Wang Jinshan died in Nanjing at the age of 63 due to ineffective medical treatment.
In his later years, Zhang Lisan often said to people: "Jinshan is brave, decisive, and intelligent, and he fully shows his talents when he fights!" No one is not impressed. The Heroic Unit of the Sixth Column (12th Army) was brought out by him!"
