Failing General Chen Yidao "changed his surname" not changed back

Chen Zhongdao, the older generation of proletarian revolutionaries and founding general, is a well-known legend in Hubei. He is strong-witted but witty. He was one of the seventy-two warriors who broke through to Mulan Mountain in the Jute Uprising. From the start of the Red Army to the War of Liberation, he grew up in the war, bravely crowned the whole army, and repeatedly made military exploits. Marshal Chen Yi called it "the courage of re-doing". After the founding of New China, although he was in a high position, he never put on airs, played official, observed the truth, told the truth, was upright, selfless, tolerant and kind, and set a benchmark for us in life.

Chen Zaidao, Ben's last name is Cheng. When he was a child, he believed it because he heard the elder's fallacy that "nine Li and thirteen Chen are all one family" and could not distinguish his surname. In addition, the pronunciation of "Cheng" and "Chen" in Macheng dialect is not divided, and when he joined the army, he was mistakenly named Chen surname, thus he continued to use it. During the period of the Red Army, some villagers discovered this mistake and advised him to correct it. He didn't want to spend his mind on such trifles as clan's surname, and said, "What's your surname?" In his old age, someone joked with him, "Your tuba is wrong. It's so wrong. If the King of Hell can't find you, you'll be 80 years old! "The general said:" If you can live like that, you will be satisfied if you can live over 80. Any more work is to eat the people's food for nothing and spend the country's money for nothing! ".

In the early days of the "Cultural Revolution", the Wuhan Military Region under his administration, in accordance with the eight orders of the Central Military Commission and his pragmatic observation and judgment, took action to arrest the backbone elements who incited the ultra-left trend of thought inside and outside the Wuhan area, and quickly stabilized the situation. Unexpectedly, they angered the "Central Cultural Revolution" at that time. They used the "July 20" incident that broke out in Wuhan later to say that he "opposed Chairman Mao" and conspired to "launch a mutiny". Chen Zaidao is hard to argue, has been wronged, and has suffered a lot, but he always believes that the party will clarify his affairs and rehabilitate him.

When he eats western food, he only uses a spoon, never a fork, etc. At a banquet, a military attache at the embassy said to him, "Commander Chen, you 'd better use a fork. This is convenient. "The general smiled and replied," I am not used to using a fork, I am used to stacking rice with a fork. "It makes people laugh. If they don't like it, they don't like it. They don't pretend to be sven.

Once, General Chen Zaizao returned to his hometown of Macheng to attend a conference. The general read the manuscript according to the convention, and suddenly he realized that he had gone home, why did he read the manuscript? So he put the manuscript aside and played it freely, which won warm applause for many times.

One day, General Chen Zadao had a discussion with a school student. A classmate asked him, "Is the society you were longing for like we are now?" He replied readily, "In my youth, I thought socialism was a world of good people. As for socialism, there will still be tricks for flatterers, opportunism, and extortion, which I have never thought. "With that, applause immediately rang out.
