In 1938, Peng Dehuai was then the deputy commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army, and this year, he was 39 years old, and in the first half of Peng Zong's life, he had two love affairs.
The first lover is called Zhou Ruilian, she is an orphan girl raised by Peng Dehuai's uncle, from childhood by the Peng family's care, two green plum bamboo horses, two small no guess, later, Peng Dehuai went outside to find a way out, and when he returned, he got the news, a landlord forced a debt to his uncle, the uncle had no money to repay, the landlord decided to use Zhou Ruilian to pay off the debt.
Zhou Ruilian was young, but her temperament was fierce, and she would rather die than follow, and jumped off a cliff.
When he got the news, Peng Dehuai burst into tears.
His second love affair was with a girl named Liu Ximei, and in 1922, under the arrangement of the family, Peng Dehuai married Liu Ximei, the daughter of a cargo lang.
When he got married, Liu Ximei was 12 years old, and at that time Peng Dehuai liked that his wife was a woman who was completely different from the old society, so he taught his wife to look forward to the outside world and strive to enrich herself, so he also changed his wife's name to "Liu Kunmo"
After marrying Liu Kunmo, Peng Dehuai was very fond of her, and he not only sent Liu Kunmo to his uncle Xiao Yunqiao to study, but also instructed her to read and write letters.
In 1928, Peng Dehuai led the Pingjiang Uprising, the two separated, goodbye, it was already 1937, due to the war, Liu Kunmo mistakenly thought that her husband had died, she had remarried and had children.
Peng Dehuai has always been worried about Liu Kunmo, so he has not married, and when he learned that the final result was so, he was silent, but said: "At that time, due to the special situation, I could not blame me for this matter, nor could I blame her." ”
Both relationships ended in tragedy, and Peng Dehuai no longer had expectations for marriage.
Chen Geng was very close to General Manager Peng and decided to open his blockaded heart, and in the autumn of 1938, when Peng Dehuai attended the Sixth Plenary Session of the Sixth Central Committee, he returned to Yan'an, where Chen Geng had people organize a volleyball match.
Then I went to invite Peng Dehuai, and I happened to meet Li Fuchun reporting to Peng Dehuai, and Chen Geng said: "Boss, there is a wonderful ball game today, are you going to see it?" ”
Peng Dehuai didn't want to go: "I don't have time, you can go and see it for me." ”
Chen Geng said: "General Manager Peng, if you don't go, I will give my opinion at the life meeting, saying that you are bureaucratic, the shelf is big, and the subordinates please do not move!" Chen Geng also gave Li Fuchun a look.
Li Fuchun advised from the side: "Take a moment to go and see!" It's hard to be gracious! ”
Peng Dehuai agreed.
When watching the women's volleyball match, Peng Dehuai was very interested, and Chen Geng asked him how he was, and he said: "The slender man with glasses is good." ”
Chen Geng introduced: "Her name is Pu Anxiu, a student of Beishi University, and now she teaches at Shaanxi Northern Public School, and her learning and character are all good..."
Peng Dehuai seemed to realize something, smiled and said, "Who asked you this?" ”
At the end of the game, Mr. Peng shook hands with these players, and since then, under the guidance of Chen Geng, Peng Dehuai has had more exchanges with Pu Anxiu. Born in Beijing in 1918, Pu Anxiu, a native of Jiading, Shanghai, came to Yan'an in 1938 to serve as the secretary of the training class of the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee.
For Peng Dehuai, the 20-year-old Pu Anxiu is also very admired, the two originally have a good feeling, coupled with Chen Geng's urging in the back, on October 10 of this year, Peng Dehuai and Pu An revised marriage.
Chen Geng likes to be a "red bride", the marriage of the founding general Wang Shusheng and his wife Yang Ju, in which he also made a "great contribution"
In 1942, Wang Shusheng, then deputy commander of the Taihang Military Region, returned to Yan'an to study, where he met a female military doctor at the Headquarters Hospital of the Eighth Route Army, named Yang Ju, 22 years old.
After someone's introduction, Wang Shusheng got acquainted with Yang Ju, and when the two exchanged, they each told their previous past, and Yang Ju told Wang Shusheng that he had escaped because he hated the arranged marriage at home, came to Yan'an, and joined the revolution.
Wang Shusheng admired her very much after hearing it, and in the communication between the two, their hearts also came closer step by step.
In 1944, Wang Shusheng was about to leave Yan'an to return to the battlefield, and before leaving, he took Yang Ju to see He Long and Xu Xiangqian, and when he saw Wang Shusheng and Yang Ju, He Long and Xu Xiangqian understood.
He Long said to Yang Ju, "Xiao Yang, your Nanzhang is a good place, I have been there." Besides, Hunan Hubei is two brothers, and my mother is Dongting Lake, so we are half a fellow villager! If you are a fellow countryman, then you will be involved in the past, I can be regarded as half of the mother's family, Xiao Yang, do you say yes? ”
Yang Ju didn't know, so he replied, "Yes, Commander, you are right." ”
Xu Xiangqian said next to him, "Boss He! You're right. I have always been the old superior of Shusheng, you are the mother-in-law, then I am the in-laws! Oh the sound of trees! Am I right? ”
Wang Shusheng said, "Yes, yes, Mr. Xu is right." ”
He Long immediately clapped his hands when he heard it: "Well, you are the in-laws, I am the mother-in-law, this is what the two of them approve." I said dear family, let's do the happy event early! ”
Xu Xiangqian immediately agreed: "Today's Mid-Autumn Festival, while celebrating the festival, let's do the happy event!" ”
Yang Ju understood at this moment, she was a little shy, stomped her feet and said, "You see, I am not prepared at all..." Saying, she was ready to run out, and He Long blocked her.
Just at this moment, Chen Geng happened to arrive, and upon learning of the causes and consequences, Chen Geng had a plan, and he held the loudspeaker and shouted: "Everyone pay attention, Chen's radio station is now broadcasting important news and emergency notices, Wang Shusheng and Yang Ju have temporarily decided to hold a wedding now, everyone come to participate!" Come and see the old Singles King tree sound and a flower poplar torch into the cave room! ”
Chen Geng's words, everyone rushed to ask Yang Ju and Wang Shusheng about the love process.
Yang Ju blushed shyly and said, "He's really powerful." Wang Shusheng said, "She's really naughty." ”
On this day, the two held a wedding, Chen Geng wittily wrote a couplet, the upper link is: really naughty to meet really powerful, the lower link is: autumn flowers are good with autumn full moon, horizontal batch is: revolutionary partner.
In 1955, the 39-year-old Xiao Hua was awarded the rank of general, and he was the youngest of the 55 founding generals awarded in this batch, General Xiao Hua was not simple, so was his wife Wang Xinlan, who was the youngest female Red Army during the Long March.
What is less known is that the combination of Xiao Hua and Wang Xinlan, Chen Geng is also the first "red lady"
One evening in August 1937, when Chen Geng and Xiao Hua and others were walking, they suddenly heard the sound of harmonica, they came looking for the sound, saw three female Red Army soldiers, Chen Geng saw the one in the middle, and shouted: Good, let me find you again, my daughter, follow me home. ”
This little girl is Wang Xinlan.
It turned out that during the Long March, Chen Geng knew Wang Xinlan, and he felt that Wang Xinlan was particularly like his daughter who stayed in Shanghai, so he made a fuss about recognizing Wang Xinlan as his dry daughter.
Chen Geng said that Wang Xinlan was his own daughter, Xiao Hua was a little surprised, he did not listen to Chen Geng said this before, Chen Geng explained it from the beginning, saying that Wang Xinlan was 9 years old when she joined the Red Army, and later she braved hardships and followed the troops to participate in the Long March, performing dances and singing for the soldiers.
Xiao Hua praised Wang Xinlan, and the careful Chen Geng found that Xiao Hua had a lot of good feelings for Wang Xinlan, and the next day, when the two met again, Chen Geng smiled and said, "You see, what a good young man, not very old, has a lot of skills, became the political commissar of the division at the age of 19, and his reputation in the Red Army ranks is not small!" If you are my daughter, I will marry you to him. ”
Wang Xinlan blushed shyly, this year she was 13 years old.
After that, Xiao Hua communicated with Wang Xinlan more, and in 1940, under the mediation of Chen Geng and Luo Ronghuan and others, Xiao Hua and Wang Xinlan married.
