“He doesn’t smoke cigars, doesn’t drink, and doesn’t like women, so what does he do every day?” This is what the Soviet officers repeatedly sent to Montgomery after the Allies captured Berlin in order to show their goodwill to Montgomery. Cigars, famous wines and beautiful women, but Montgomery repeatedly refused and said a word.

When Montgomery was a child, not only did he lack maternal love, but people around him didn't like him very much either. Because he is always naughty and mischievous, people around him often have headaches because of him. In terms of academic performance, his grades were always 36th in the class, and there were only 36 students in his class, and his moral evaluation was always written as bad.

But one thing about Montgomery is that he likes to be a soldier. His only ideal is to attend the famous Royal Military Academy Sandhurst in England. However, the school's evaluation of his conduct said: "Poor", and the student has little chance of getting into Sandhurst.

This was undoubtedly like a ladle of cold water poured over him. Despite countless cold looks, countless indifferences, and countless distrusts, Montgomery remained unmoved. He still insisted on getting admitted to that school. From then on, he seemed to be a different person, studying hard every day and making great progress. Finally, through hard work, he was finally admitted to this school.

From then on, Montgomery devoted two-thirds of his life to the army. In 1914, the First World War broke out, and he began to rise to prominence in the First World War. In the early days of World War II, the British army was battered by the Germans and their morale was low. At this time, the British Empire was on the verge of collapse.

In 1942, Churchill transferred Montgomery to the Eighth Army. Within a few months, the war situation quickly reversed. The famous desert lone Rommel was permanently driven out of the desert by Montgomery, and Montgomery became a soldier. Savior of the British Empire!

Faced with countless disapprovals and cold indifferences in life, Montgomery can turn a deaf ear. He loved being a soldier and was passionate about the military cause, so he dedicated most of his life to the military. He devoted his life to his only career and never wavered. He is such a person who devotes all his energy and unlimited enthusiasm to something he believes in.

The same goes for Montgomery when it comes to love. In his early years, Montgomery was devoted to his work and was still unmarried at the age of 39. His comrades often teased him that the army was his lover.

At the age of 39, Montgomery met a woman for whom he fell in love. This woman was his future wife Betty. The two of them hit it off and finally entered the church smoothly.

Marshal Montgomery's adjutant said with emotion: "The most beautiful girl in the world deserves to be a general! How can a lusty woman bewitch him?" Even Betty herself didn't believe it. , the famous general will fall in love with her. She said: "If you sympathize with me, then please go away, I don't need sympathy."

Marshal Montgomery solemnly gave her a military salute, then pulled out the gun from his waist, Let the gun point to your head and say: "If I betray you, let me die by my own gun!" The commitment of General Montgomery's personality is better than all sweet words and eternal oaths.

As the relationship between the two deepened, Montgomery became more and more unable to extricate himself, and finally plucked up the courage to express his love to Betty. Betty happily accepted the love of Marshal Montgomery.

On July 27, 1927, 40-year-old Marshal Montgomery and 39-year-old Betty got married.

After marriage, they had a son and lived a very sweet life. However, the good times did not last long. On October 19, 1937, his wife passed away due to septicemia.

At Betty's funeral, General Montgomery had no tears and just gave a long military salute.

In fact, the death of his beloved wife was a heavy blow to Montgomery, which made him fall into extreme pain. From then on, he transferred his love for his wife to his son, and he cared for his son in every possible way. At the same time, he devoted his main energy to studying war and devoted himself to the career of the military.

At the end of the war, he won everything with his immortal achievements: honor, status, money and the admiration of the world. Of course, there is also the admiration of countless women. Countless women dream of leaning on his chest covered with medals. Many people who cared about him introduced partners to him one after another, but Dantao remained unmoved and politely declined.

Even Prime Minister Churchill failed to do so when he wanted to be his old man under the moon. The Prime Minister advised him: "General Montgomery, the whole of England does not want you to be alone for the rest of your life." He said seriously: "As a soldier, I will always be loyal to my motherland, and as a man, I will never betray love. "This time, the Prime Minister solemnly saluted him as a military salute.

When Montgomery recovered from the sorrow and pain of losing his wife a few years later, some people quietly whispered: "Montgomery is probably going to get married again." After hearing this, Montgomery said: "I don't believe a People can fall in love twice, and the love I have for Betty will never happen again."

This great marshal did this until his death in 1976, and Montgomery returned. He has never been attracted to any woman.

Many years later, General Montgomery mentioned the only and short-lived love in his life in his autobiography. When talking about the death of his wife, the general wrote: "Tears are not the only way to express love; Loyalty is the best proof of love. If you fall in love with one woman, you can't fall in love with another woman, just like the gun in my hand can only have one crosshair!"

Since he embarked on his military career, What to eat and drink every day, when to exercise, and when to sleep, he continued to do it, even during the tense war years. When it was time to go to bed, he had to lie in bed and sleep without any permission. People disturb.

Montgomery loved two things in his life, one was his military career, and the other was his wife. Because he loved being a soldier, he dedicated two-thirds of his life to the military; because he loved himself deeply His wife, he gave all his love to her.

Some people may have had several girlfriends and been married several times, but when they come to the end of their lives, will they still be able to figure out who their true love is for, or who they are with them? In this short life, has freedom ever experienced true love?

Loyalty because of true love. Marshal used his glorious career and out-of-print love to illustrate this wise saying for us. Maybe you are impetuous, maybe you are worried, maybe you are still searching hard.

But no matter how the external environment changes, you have to always ask yourself, whether you have given all your efforts, gone against the path you came from, betrayed your original intention, and deviated from your truest self. value choice.

Only by never forgetting your original intention can you achieve success. Perhaps the happiest people are those who keep striving for everything they love.
