Review
Because of the complexity and changeability of the situation during the war, many lovers and couples who were originally favored were forced to go their separate ways. Some people will never see each other again, but there are also some people who can only regret it for the rest of their lives because of some kind of misunderstanding, including Liao Hansheng and his wife Xiao Genggen.
In the early years, Liao Hansheng and his fiancée Xiao Genggen both joined the army and contributed all their strength to the revolutionary cause, although the life of this military brigade was extremely difficult, but it was not too difficult to have a lover by his side. However, during a siege and suppression war between the enemy, Xiao Genggen was unfortunately arrested, and soon the news came out that she had been killed by the enemy.
At that moment, Liao Hansheng was so sad that he couldn't get out of it for a long time. But the war will continue, and the comrades can't bear to see Liao Hansheng sink so deeply, and finally under the arrangement of the organization, he became a family again, and the thought of his deceased wife was also deeply buried in his heart.
But fate is so fond of teasing people, after liberation Xiao Gengen actually came to the door, she did not die, but the blockage of the news made it impossible for her to tell her husband the good news of being alive.
Determined to join the army and marry a wife
Liao Hansheng was born in Hunan to an ordinary peasant family, as the origin of the revolutionary fire, before Liao Hansheng Hunan did not know how many heroes and good men, they shouldered a heavy responsibility of home and country, just to adhere to the success of the revolution.
For example, Liao Hansheng's father, Liao Lanxiang, was no more than a scholar before, but when the horn of the revolution was blown, Liao Lanxiang did not hesitate to follow General He Long to participate in the uprising.
Liao Lanxiang fought bravely, but Yi Jie Shusheng was quite brave, and He Long admired him very much and promoted Liao Lanxiang to be an aide-de-camp.
However, Liao Lanxiang unfortunately died in a battle, when Liao Hansheng had grown up, and he did not shed tears after hearing the news of his father's sacrifice, but firmly said that he must inherit his father's revolutionary will and he wanted to join the army.
Liao Lanxiang's death made General He Long feel very guilty, and after hearing that his son Liao Hansheng resolutely joined the army, He Long praised him and was determined to make up for the guilt he felt against Liao Lanxiang in his son. Therefore, shortly after Liao Hansheng joined the army, He Long became a moon elder and let the second sister's daughter Xiao Genggen and Liao Hansheng betrothed.
At that time, Liao Hansheng was not very old, and He Long did not take him to the front line to fight, but paid him to study and strive to be a person who contributed to society.
Originally, life had calmed down, but on the eve of the War of Resistance Against Japan, old Chiang Kai-shek rebelled and launched an encirclement and suppression of our army, and General He Long, including his surroundings, became the target of the Nationalist government's pursuit.
Liao Hansheng flees the school in an emergency to find He Long's shelter. He Long placed him in the guerrilla group under his command, and coincidentally, his fiancée Xiao Genggen was also in the guerrilla group.
Originally, Xiao Genggen was very dissatisfied with He Long's random arrangement of her relatives, but during the years of fighting side by side with Liao Hansheng, Xiao Genggen suddenly found that she liked the heroic man in front of her, and finally under the auspices of He Long, the two married in the army.
Although the war is still going on, but with the support of loved ones, life is also a little improved, which should be the beginning of the happy life of the two, but did not expect to end suddenly due to an accident.
Ten years of life and death are uncertain
In 1932, the reactionaries surrounded the guerrilla group led by He Ying, and in order to cover the successful breakthrough of the large troops, a group of people in the guerrilla group had to be cut off. As a result, Liao Hansheng's unit was responsible for the breakthrough, while Xiao Genggen's unit was responsible for breaking the rear.
In the fierce exchange of fire that followed, Liao Hansheng finally escaped successfully, but Xiao Genggong was unfortunately surrounded by reactionaries and could no longer escape.
At that time, we knew very well what would happen if we fell into the hands of the reactionaries, and it was impossible to survive without being a traitor; Liao Hansheng knew that with the personality of his wife Xiao Genggen, she would never betray our party, so her end seemed to be predictable. Liao Hansheng also repeatedly dragged General He Long to inquire about Xiao Genggen's whereabouts, but the final result was that Xiao Genggen was killed.
After losing his wife, Liao Hansheng was depressed all day, and even his combat ability had dropped by an unknown number of levels; in order to help him quickly get out of the haze, He Long decided to form a family for Liao Hansheng after consulting with his wife, which could also be regarded as a memorial to his lonely soul.
Liao Hansheng did not agree at first, but finally chose to compromise; the new wife was introduced by Xue Ming, whose name was Bai Lin, and was a very virtuous woman.
Since then, for about 10 years, Liao Hansheng has been with Bai Lin, and the two have raised 4 children with each other, and their lives are relatively stable. But in the subsequent campaign to liberate Qinghai, He Long wrote to tell him a shocking news.
In short, at that time, old Jiang still wanted to recruit He Long, and Xiao Ganggen, as a relative of He Long, may be of great use in the future; therefore, the reactionaries did not harm Xiao Genggen, but sold her to a foreign country to completely isolate her from our party.
By the time Liao Hansheng and Xiao Genggen met again, they were already different things and people, and everything had become different.
In these 10 years, Xiao Genggen and Liao Hansheng have formed their own new families with each other, and the two can no longer get together like before, this regret is a common thing in wartime, so after understanding each other's situation, the two waved goodbye and returned to the family, this regret can only remain in each other's hearts, and it is impossible to fill it.
epilogue
Liao Hansheng's story profoundly reflects the pain of parting that people suffered in that war-torn era, but everyone can only bury their regrets in their hearts, because the war continues.
Even if they give up their small families for everyone, even at the cost of their lives, they will fight the war, the peace era is not easy to come by, now we can love freely, we can accompany our lovers all the time; but for our ancestors, it was an unattainable dream.
