Rokossovo biography Personal life

Historians did not even embellish his post -war, by decree of Stalin, the appointment of the Minister of Defense of Poland, where Rokossovsky was able to create a completely combat -ready army from the fragmented Polish forest semi -bank, but he did not accept him secretly, but then the pro -Western Polish gentry. The marshal left Poland offended, promising never to return to this false country and kept his word: in any Soviet delegation, officially or "creatively" who went to Warsaw, the ethnic Pole Rokossovsky refused to participate.

The marshal could not resist only on his love fronts, which they did not write too much about then and, as it were, “casually”, but on the sidelines they gossiped, as they say, “to all growth! Officially, Konstantin Rokossovsky was married once: on a young girl Julia Barmina, with whom the future marshal, and then - a young red commander met in the small Buryat town of Kyakhta, where it was part of it.

The novel flowed chastely and sedately according to all the canons of noble foundations, Rokossovsky was born in Warsaw in the family of a Polish railway official and nobleman: dates under the moon, poems, ahi, ohi, and, finally, a recognition of love! Next are the bride's family. When Julia's parents found out that the groom is a military personnel, almost a “riot on the ship” happened: “The military are like gypsies!

However, the joyless prospects of the Turgenev girl were not frightened, the young played the Red Army wedding “The whole regiment was walking! Next - army life with predicted crossings, household disorder, anxiety, etc. On this wave, a young family entered a year. The Chekists rejoiced: both the Pole and the nobleman mean - the class enemy! The denunciation of the young commander was organized quickly as it turned out later - on behalf of the already shot officer - Aut.

Rokossovsky naturally arrested. They tortured terribly: they knocked out all the teeth, broke the ribs, knocked down the liver and kidneys ... They demanded to admit spying in favor of Poland, naturally by Germany, and according to the then strange Chekist tradition to take on the benefit of Japan. Rokossovsky refused everything and demanded a confrontation with supposedly the author of the denunciation, knowing that he was no longer alive.

The Chekists naturally psychmed, and the obstinated Komkor twice arranged an indicative “execution”: they took the soldiers into the courtyard in front of the system, sounded a volley, but ... idle cartridges. Many of such “humane” executions could not stand it: they died from a break in the heart on the parade ground. Rokossovsky withstood this test. The “court” took place in the year.

But, this may sound and blasphemous in relation to the memory of those who did not live to see the trial against Rokossovsky ... There was no one to testify: those on whose alleged testimony were concocted were already shot. By that time, it became clear to everyone in the Kremlin that the war with Germany was the issue of the near future and that it was possible to destroy the faithful commanders, all the more, the tall Soviet military leaders began to bother Rokossovsky and Stalin ordered him to release him.

Moreover, to assign him the title of Major General! The general’s family was not affected by a happy chance. Or maybe the leader by that time was simply tired of shedding the blood of women and children. They say that this sometimes happens with villains. Love is like anesthesia. Having freed himself, the young general general, the leader’s personal permission, along with his wife and little daughter, went to one of the Kremlin sanatoriums in Sochi: Stalin needed healthy commanders in the approaching war.

However, the general did not work long and recover: June was struck by June of the year ... From the first days of the war, Rokossovsky was in its very hell - Western, where he had to emerly formed the combat -ready units from the randomly retreating scattered Soviet units, which immediately rushed into the meat grinder on the defense of Smolensk. Then there was the defense of Moscow, where both the division of Panfilov and the horsemen of General Dovator, who brought the Germans to the Germans, fought under the command of Rokossovsky, no less horror than naval infantrymen, and boys from the Podolsk military school.

The cost of their lives and thanks to the military talent of Rokossovsky, Moscow was defended, and the general himself recorded not only this brilliant Victoria, but also an unexpected victory on the personal front. The military doctor of the second rank Galina Talanova was in a hurry to her medical battalion: the wounded arrived around the clock, the operating room did not empty a minute, the doctors from fatigue and lack of sleep lost consciousness right during the operations.

It is not surprising that in that bustle of people, cars, wagons, the girl did not notice the general: “Comrade military doctor! Why don't you welcome the eldest by rank? Talanova hesitated, raised her eyes to the general and ..., as she later remembered herself, realized that this stately blue -eyed handsome man was her fate. He experienced the same feelings from the stories of Rokossovsky himself.

More than a twenty -year difference in age only gave their relations of special acuteness: in war, as a rule, there is no place for holiness.Thus began this long romance of General Rokossovsky and military doctor of the second rank Galina Talanova, unlike many similar fleeting front-line adventures, which did not overgrown with vulgar details and the prefix to her disrespectful abbreviation of the PPG hiking wife-aut.

Rokossovsky carefully protected these relations as a general and as a man, although he understood that his enemies would definitely try to use them against him, despite the fact that Galine told Galina that he had a family that he would never abandon and if he remained alive, he would definitely return to her. Talanova did not claim anything, content only because she was loved and loved herself.

In fact, this was a great sacrifice on her part, which Rokossovsky himself perfectly understood. Of course, Julia Petrovna learned about her husband’s novel very quickly: the front -line “radio” worked properly. The news accepted outwardly calmly, they say, in the war it doesn’t happen, but her heart was torn: her daughter Ariadne grew nearby, who every day asked about dad and where they would all go together when the war would finally end.

But Julia Petrovna did not know what would actually be after the war and whether it would happen “all together”?

Rokossovsky wrote to her letters, invariably calling the wife of “Lulia”, she regularly answered them, but instead of a mailbox, she folded her letters at home with a separate pile: “He will return - read. He will not return, well, then fate. " Rokossovsky returned, having survived the most severe wound, from which he was both a doctor and as a loving woman nursed Talanov and no less difficult parting with herself.

In the year, Galina already in liberated Poland gave birth to a daughter, whom she called Nadezhda. The hope that in her real life was never destined to come true. Marshal gave his daughter his last name, and all his life helped her and her mother. Julia Petrovna not only knew about this, but she herself took a positive part in the life of her husband’s second family.

After the death of Rokossovsky, his daughter even met and retained a very good relationship for life: it was, in those difficult years in the life of Soviet people the honorary word “nobility”. The name of this lyric film shot in the year and very popular in the USSR as an irony of fate can be considered a brief biographical annotation for personal life and Konstantin Rokossovsky.

In the year, after a severe wound, by order of Stalin, for more serious treatment from the front, he was transported to a military hospital near Moscow, where all young nurses and nannies immediately fell in love with him as orders. There was something from: a stately general, who had already begun to walk a little by little, was able to give them with a lovely Polish accent and a compliment, or just silently look at the girls with his bottomless blue eyes that yesterday's schoolgirls died in violation of the laws of cardiology in the literal sense.

They say that the girls even specifically changed shifts in order to see their idol and hero of the war more often. Experienced surgeons only chuckled, but the virtual love of colleagues in skirts did not interfere: positive emotions went to everyone only to the benefit ... It was in those days that the famous Soviet actress Valentina Serova came to the hospital for the wounded.

Seeing Rokossovsky with his own eyes, the screen star immediately headed the conditional list of his many fans, taking the first place in it, as it seemed to her. But Serova did not know that in the life of Rokossovsky there were already the wife of Julia and Galina Talanova, and Konstantin Rokossovsky was clearly not going to give excessive drama to the already established relationship.

Moreover, Serova herself was already in a relationship with the famous Soviet journalist and writer Konstantin Simonov, she was clearly in no hurry to marry, and then such a meeting with Rokossovsky ... The writer was terribly jealous and even, according to rumors, went to complain about the commander to Stalin, who was not accustomed to family trash and his children, and especially close to him.

Today there is no reliable information about how the leader reacted to the request of the upset writer and whether he reacted at all: was there a terrible war, was the general nuances to Stalin? Most likely, no novel has happened to Serova with Rokossovsky: his heart was already busy. Soon Valentina Serova, maybe - from despair, maybe in spite of the marshal, officially married Simonov, moved to his gorgeous apartment on Gorky Street, gave birth to his daughter Masha.

True, according to the memoirs of Svetlana Petrovna, the widow of Marshal Kazakov, with whom Rokossovsky was very friendly, Serova once in May arrived again in the hospital to Rokossovsky no longer in the concert brigade, but only as a private person. Doctors, who already knew about the difficult situation that had developed in this controversial union of the “heart of four”, did not let the actress go to the general.

Then Serova allegedly achieved a meeting with his wife Julia Petrovna, where she admitted that in her love for her husband. Why is unknown.Perhaps the usual acting reincarnation and an episode from real life affected the actress played simply as another cinema double? However, the truth remained, as they say, "behind the scenes." Julia Petrovna, having listened to this sudden confession, was only able to sympathize with the actress: they say, “she is not the first and not the last,” and advised him to throw all this story from her head.

Was there love? On that “novel” of the movie star and Marshal ended: Rokossovsky in the year on the orders of Stalin, along with his family, moved to Warsaw, where he became Minister of Defense of the Polish army. Serova could not truly love Konstantin Simonov, their marriage became more and more only formal social convention. The actress began to apply to the bottle, let rehearsals in Lenkom, from where she was fired for it.

The same fate befell her in the Maly Theater, then at the Moss Council theater ... Simonov’s intercession no longer helped, and the writer himself was very tired of this household turmoil. In the year, having written the shortest work in his life - a note with the words “I just fell out of love”, left Seryova. She died alone, among empty bottles in a running dark apartment in the year.

Simonov did not come to the funeral.
