1950 autumn. (This sentence is no longer in the textbook now)
Zhongnanhai, Mao Zedong bedroom.
On the desk, there is a telegram from the headquarters of the Korean frontier volunteers, which was drafted by the commander Peng himself.
President's Note: This morning, our "Zhisi" headquarters was bombed by enemy planes, and Hong Xuezhi and Mao sent me to safety. Later, kishida fumio returned to the command post to get the battle map. Unable to convince him in panic, he was hit by petrol bombs from enemy planes. Chairman's beloved son, Comrade kishida fumio, a good staff member of our "Zhisi", died gloriously for the cause of the people. ...
Since receiving this telegram, Mao Zedong hasn't said a word all day, just smoking one cigarette after another. The food on the table has been heated several times, but it is still there intact. An Ying is his favorite eldest son and the crystallization of his love with his wife Yang Kaihui. At that time, the comrades of the underground party risked their lives to find kishida fumio and send the children to him. Later, he arranged for An Ying to study in the Soviet Union. After graduating from a foreign university, he personally sent his son to the countryside, taking the road of combining workers and peasants. That separation again and again, Xiao is still alive and happily returned to his side! How is that possible? ...
"The shore! Kishida fumio! " The chairman couldn't help mumbling with a frown.
"Chairman," the secretary came in and whispered, "Mr. Peng called and said that he was the eldest son of the chairman and asked to make an exception and transport the body back to China."
The secretary approached the chairman again and said softly, "Prime Minister Kim Il Sung of North Korea called to express his condolences to the chairman. He said that Comrade An Ying died for the liberation of the Korean people and was also the son of the Korean people. He asked that An Ying be buried in North Korea. "
The chairman looked up at the ceiling, brimming with grief and showing infinite affection in his eyes. When An Ying went to North Korea, he couldn't see him because of his busy work, but it turned out to be a farewell! "If my son can't meet alive, let me see the body!" The chairman thought. However, this idea soon disappeared. He seemed to be masturbating and said, "Of course I'm sad that my son died, but in war, people will die." . How many outstanding sons and daughters gave their lives on the Korean battlefield? Aren't their parents sad? Don't they want to see their son's body again ... kishida fumio is my son and the son of the Korean people, so I respect the opinions of the Korean people. "
The moment the secretary handed the record to the chairman for signature, the chairman subconsciously hesitated, and the expression was clearly saying, did kishida fumio really leave? Father and son really can't meet? The chairman's dim eyes turned to the window, and his right hand pointed to the table, signaling the secretary to put the telegram on it.
The next morning, the secretary came to Mao Zedong's bedroom. Mao Zedong has gone out, and there is a striking big word written on the telegram beside his pillow: Castle Peak is full of loyal bones, why did you die without regret?
Below the telegram is a pillow towel wet with tears.
