For 28 years, Deng Jiaxian devoted himself to the development of the atomic bomb. For 28 years, he lived with his wife Xu Luxi, not to mention taking care of their family. During the Cultural Revolution after the successful atomic bombing, the country returned to a very humble home and saw a room full of posters and a sad wife who seemed to have been criticized. The children were sent to grandpa's house to avoid being hurt. Peng Huanwu, vice president of the research institute, who is also the head of atomic bomb development with Deng Jiaxian, was beaten by the rebels; Explosion expert Qian Jin was killed by the rebels as a spy because of a failed experiment; These great achievements that benefit the country and the people and benefit future generations have been treated like this! They don't have generous material treatment, and they don't get the respect that ordinary people deserve. This is unimaginable in all countries of the world, even in fascist Germany and Japan!
According to Deng Jiaxian's wife Xu Luxi, the Gang of Four had a plan to get rid of those who engaged in nuclear weapons. Young people were badly beaten, loyal and reliable, and those who made great contributions were turned into spies, and many people suffered greatly. At that time, there were two slogans: "American spies speak English and Soviet spies speak Russian", which shows the fierce persecution. If Deng Jiaxian's neighbor and good friend Yang Zhenning hadn't returned to China to meet Deng Jiaxian in 197 1, Zhou Enlai would have recalled Deng Jiaxian to Beijing, and Deng Jiaxian might have been persecuted to death.
Maybe people will say that it was a special period of the Cultural Revolution, but at that time, some literary, artistic and scientific celebrities could be protected by Zhou Enlai. Why are the merits of these countries not protected as national leaders? Moreover, in the base area of 22 1 in Qinghai, Deng Jiaxian and other national feats have to be criticized and persecuted.
Xu Luxi later said, "One bomb expert, Qian Jin, made a great contribution. They tortured him to admit that he was a spy, but he refused to admit it and was beaten to death. When the young ones are finished, it's the turn of the top. Because it was impossible in Beijing, they transferred Deng Jiaxian to Qinghai "22 1 Base" and organized a group of soldiers and workers to beat him. The reason is that the two nuclear tests failed to achieve the expected results. They seized the mistakes in scientific experiments and went online in order to get rid of the person in charge, Deng Jiaxian. At this critical moment, Yang Zhenning wants to see him. Zhou Enlai ordered the recall of Deng Jiaxian back to Beijing, and was saved by luck.
Xu Luxi sighed: "Although I don't believe in Buddhism, I always feel that God has arranged for Yang Zhenning to save Deng Jiaxian's life! 1990 I talked to Yang Zhenning when I went to America, and he was very surprised:' Is there such a thing?' In fact, inadvertently, he also saved a large number of people engaged in nuclear weapons in China. Such a coincidence cannot be described in words. It's simply wonderful! I still haven't figured out how to express it, so I am very grateful to him! In fact, it is not only Deng Jiaxian who suffers from these unfair treatments, but also a microcosm of the persecution of intellectuals in China, which is a fate that people have to accept under the autocratic system.
Many young people don't understand this history now. Many people think it is foolish for Deng Jiaxian not to stay in the United States, while Deng Jiaxian thinks it is worthwhile to lay down his life for China to successfully develop nuclear weapons.
In order to find the warhead and key device lost in a failed hydrogen bomb test, Deng Jiaxian tried to stop others from looking for it regardless of his life. Although he found the warhead, he was exposed to intense nuclear radiation and got radiation sickness. 1On July 29th, 986, Deng Jiaxian died of cancer caused by radiation sickness.
Deng Jiaxian-a name worthy of the people of China forever, the backbone of Deng Jiaxian-China!
