1938, Chu Qing joined the revolutionary ranks because of our party's active propaganda on the anti-Japanese national salvation movement. 1939, Chu Qing was appointed as a stenographer by the Jiangnan Command of the New Fourth Army, and was under the management of the teaching team.
On one occasion, when General Su Yu went to the headquarters teaching team to select secretaries, he met Chu Qing, who was in his youth. According to "Anecdote of the Founding General", "As soon as Su Yu entered the office gate of the teaching team, he saw a comely woman practicing calligraphy. Su Yu stepped forward and asked her name in a friendly tone. "
"Report chief, my name is Zhan, and I am a soldier of the New Fourth Army of the Secretariat." Chu Qing said. (Chu Qing didn't change his name at that time) The conversation with Chu Qing left a deep impression on Su Yu. According to "Memoirs of Su Yu", "General Su Yu learned from the conversation that Chu Qing is a female warrior with excellent academic performance, and her thoughts and abilities are extremely in line with Su Yu's requirements for selecting stenographers."
After returning to the headquarters, Su Yu wanted Chu Qing to be a stenographer, but he didn't give this order after careful consideration. According to The Founding General, "General Su Yu thought that Chu Qing was not only his subordinate, but also his lover." General Su Yu's love story begins.
A month later, Chu Qing was transferred from the teaching team to the shorthand class at the headquarters. General Su Yu made her a colleague. At that time, General Su Yu was working in the attic, and Chu Qing and others were recording military information in a room on the first floor. Su Yu often runs downstairs to collect information from Yan 'an, so Su Yu can talk with Chu Qing. According to "Anecdote of the Founding General", "General Su Yu, who is in command of thousands of troops, is always unsmiling and dignified to his subordinates at ordinary times. However, I have a good relationship with the comrades in the shorthand class, and I often invite the comrades in the shorthand class to dinner with my own allowance. "
General Su Yu is usually very busy and often stays up until midnight. The monitor of the cookhouse squad prepared canned food and biscuits for General Su Yu as supper. On one occasion, Chu Qing and several female soldiers in the shorthand class stole Su Yu's supper. After eating, he left a note on the table, which read "The mouse stole the food". A few days later, Su Yu found the note and said to Chu Qing and them with a smile, "Comrade Mouse is welcome to steal food again." ChuQingGong face ran away with a smile.
A few months later, General Su Yu left the headquarters for military affairs. After returning to the second team, Su Yu still missed Chu Qing, so General Su Yu prepared to confess to Chu Qing. According to "The Founding General", "When the director of the Political Department of the Second Detachment was going to the headquarters for a meeting, Su Yu stopped him and asked him to send a love letter to Chu Qing of the shorthand class." The deputy commander's life events dare not be delayed. After receiving the letter, the director of the political department immediately set off for headquarters. Over the mountain, I came to the headquarters non-stop and gave the letter to Chu Qing.
Chu Qing opened Su Yu's letter in front of the political department director. According to "Anecdotes of the Founding General", in Su Yu's letter, there is a photo of Su Yu and a love letter. After reading Su Yu's love letter, Chu Qing's face became very serious, and he tore up the letter and Su Yu's photo in front of the director of the Political Department. "
Embarrassed and at a loss, the director of the political department returned to the second team to "truthfully report" Chu Qing's reaction. Su Yu also looked very helpless and said to him: "Love is first and foremost an emotion, tolerant to some people and strict to some people. I belong to the latter. Even if ChuQing doesn't want to fall in love with me, I can't interfere with other people's freedom! "
General Su Yu's first confession was met with a cold shoulder.
After being rejected by Chu Qing, General Su Yu's mood is naturally sad. But he didn't give up his pursuit of Chu Qing. According to Chen Yi's memory, "Su Yu was fighting with him when he was in love. After he sets a goal, he will never change it again. " Su Yu soon launched the "second offensive". Soon after, Chu Qing was assigned to Su Yu's men. At this time, Chu Qing was very afraid to see Su Yu. Because she dare not imagine that a commander of the New Fourth Army with thousands of troops would fall in love with a girl of 16 years old. So Chu Qing always avoids Su Yu everywhere.
Working together, but always can't see Chu Qing. So one day, Su Yu called Chu Qing to the office. According to "Anecdote of Founding General", "Su Yu once again expressed his love for Chu Qing. Chu Qing said: Chief, I am too young to date. Besides, the Japanese also killed innocent people in China, and countless compatriots died under their guns. I still want to avenge them! . "
Chu Qing's words made Su Yu like her more, so Su Yu said to her, "Comrade Chu Qing, please think again. I will wait for you patiently, 1 year, 2 years or 3 years. " Chu Qing embarrassedly made a ceremony to Su Yujing and turned away.
Su Yu's love career is not smooth, and her mood is naturally low. At the end of a military combat meeting, Chen Yi talked with him a few words from the heart. According to "The Founding General", "Chen Yi said: If you can't do it, you will change it, but Su Yu said that Chu Qing has occupied his heart and will have to wait for many years." So Chen Yi jokingly said, "Why wait? If the Japanese suddenly raided our base area and you picked up the girl and ran away, then this marriage will be settled! "
Su Yu listened to Chen Yi and burst out laughing. He regained his confidence and launched a new round of "offensive" against Chu Qing. Finally, at 194 1 12, she became a lifelong companion with Chu Qing.
