China News Service, Beijing, March 26 (Reporter Liang Xiaohui) In the 100-year history of the Communist Party of China, there was a unique foreign party member and foreign general who forged an inseparable fate with China throughout his life. He is known as the "legendary bond" of Sino-Vietnamese friendship. flood.

　　Originally named Wu Yuan Bo, Hsu was born in Hanoi, Vietnam in 1908.

In 1925, he responded to Ho Chi Minh's call and came to Guangzhou to participate in the "Vietnamese Political Training Class". After finishing his studies, he and some Vietnamese youth chose to stay and became the fourth cadets of the Whampoa Military Academy.

In 1927, Wu Yuanbo was introduced to join the Communist Party of China.

　　His name "Flood" was changed shortly after joining the party.

According to the "Century Style" magazine, he saw the enemy's flyers and often referred to the Communist Party as "a scourge." He was very angry and said to everyone: "My original name is Wu Yuanbo, and the Chinese name is'Hongxiu'. Comrades say , This is a woman’s name, it lacks combativeness. That’s right, change the name! Didn’t the enemy scold us as a “flood beast”? My name is “flood,” everyone call me a flood!”

　　Since then, Wu Yuanbo has officially become a flood, following the CCP from the war of resistance to liberation, and has been rushing forward in the river of the Chinese revolution.

　　In September 1955, the Chinese People's Liberation Army was awarded the title for the first time.

Due to his special contributions, Flood was awarded the rank of major general and was awarded the "First Class August 1st Medal", "First Class Independent Freedom Medal", and "First Class Liberation Medal", becoming a special founding general in the history of the Chinese army.

　　Sixty years later, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee and President Xi Jinping also mentioned his story: "Flood responded to the call of President Ho Chi Minh, actively participated in the Chinese revolution, participated in the 25,000-mile Long March of the Red Army, and became the only general among the founding generals of New China. Foreign generals and the rare "two generals" in the world."

　　At that time, on the eve of his visit to Vietnam, Xi Jinping published a signed article entitled "Join hands to create a better tomorrow for Sino-Vietnamese relations" in the "People's Daily" of Vietnam.

He pointed out that in modern times, the Chinese and Vietnamese peoples have supported each other and shared weal and woe in the struggle for national independence and national liberation, leaving many stories behind.

"There are countless stories like this, and they are still widely circulated among the people of the two countries."

　　In fact, there are many stories of foreigners who have become a bond of friendship between China and foreign countries and have been widely circulated in the exchanges between the Communist Party of China, China and the world.

For example, Bethune, a Canadian doctor who came to China to participate in the Anti-Japanese War, John Rabe, a German businessman who provided asylum to the Chinese people during the Nanjing Massacre, was the first foreign reporter to interview Edgar Snow in the red zone of China...

　　From a historical perspective, they have supported China's cause of independence and liberation, and they are also on the right side of the trend of world history.

　　Today, under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, China has become the world's second largest economy, and it has also attracted more and more foreigners to join China's reform and opening up.

They not only write more friendship stories between China and the world, but also use mutual benefit and win-win to shape a better world together.
