"The poem is very good!" The Great Elder glanced at Yang Chen and sighed, "It's a pity that I didn't do it!"

Yang Chen glanced at the Great Elder and smiled slightly, "Your handwriting is also very good. ”

"It's still far away!" the Great Elder shook his head and walked over to the tea table.

After the Great Elder sat down, he motioned for Yang Chen to sit down as well.

Zhou Qinghe consciously boiled tea for the two of them.

The Great Elder looked at Yang Chen and said, "Actually, I think there are no heroes in our era. ”

Yang Chen lowered his head slightly, pondered for a moment, and said slowly: "I'm sorry, Great Elder, I don't agree too much with your words, I think no matter what era it is, there are heroes." ”

The Great Elder smiled and nodded, "That's right, before I saw you, I thought there were no heroes, but after seeing you, I think there are still heroes in this era." ”

Yang Chen shook his head again and said: "Hero does not refer to a person, but a group and a spirit. ”

The Great Elder stared at Yang Chen and said, "I think that sometimes a certain person meets these conditions, his existence is a symbol of this spirit, and his existence represents a group of people. ”

Yang Chen was silent for a while.

"Tea is ready. Zhou Botao poured the tea and put it in front of the two people.

The Great Elder beckoned and let Zhou Botao leave.

Zhou Botao recalled, bowed to leave, and closed the door by the way.

Watching Zhou Botao leave, Yang Chen smiled and said, "The Great Elder seems to be at ease with me. ”

The Great Elder smiled and said, "I'm not at ease with my own generals, who else can I worry about?"

"General?" Yang Chen was stunned.

"You don't know?" the Great Elder looked at Yang Chen in surprise.

Yang Chen shook his head slightly.

"Yes!" the Great Elder smiled, "This news is indeed quite hidden. ”

With that, the Great Elder stood up, walked over to a cabinet, and bent down to take out a box.

Yang Chen quietly watched the Great Elder's actions.

The Grand Elder placed the box on the table and walked up.

Yang Chen frowned slightly, his body was a little tense.

At this distance, it was difficult for anyone to dodge the attack of the hidden weapon, but Yang Chen was sure to dodge it instantly when he saw the clue.

All he had to do now was keep a close eye on the Great Elder's movements and the changes in the box.

The Great Elder opened the box lightly, and nothing changed.

Then, the Great Elder reached out and took out a suit of clothes from the box.

Seeing this dress, Yang Chen's pupils couldn't help but shrink, and he quickly stood up.

"This is ......" Yang Chen was a little excited.

The army-green clothes were neatly folded, as if they had never been opened.

The Great Elder smiled and handed the clothes to Yang Chen.

Yang Chen hurriedly stretched out his hand and respectfully took the clothes from the Great Elder's hand.

Yang Chen looked at this piece of clothes, and a sense of pride rose in his heart.

Immediately afterward, the Great Elder took out two more epaulettes from the box and gently placed them on his clothes.

Seeing the epaulettes, Yang Chen finally confirmed his guess.

Major general!

This is the rank of major general!

"Great Elder...... This ......" Yang Chen was very puzzled in his heart.

"Yours!" the Grand Elder chuckled.

"My?" Yang Chen was excited.

Napoleon said: a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier!

That's right, becoming a general is the dream in the heart of every soldier, the ultimate goal of every soldier.

However, after the founding of the country, how difficult it was to become a general!

When Yang Chen left, he was only a lieutenant colonel!

The Great Elder smiled and explained, "Do you remember the battle you fought with the Three Blacks three years ago?"

Yang Chen nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Remember, it was that battle, I almost died in Africa!"

"We think you're dead!" the Grand Elder sighed.

Yang Chen looked at the Great Elder and was silent for a while.

Although there were some accidents at the beginning, it can indeed be said that Yang Chen made them think so.

When Yang Chen came out, it wasn't long after the news of his death was announced.

The Great Elder said slowly, "I was shocked to hear the news of your sacrifice at that time, and the high-ranking people who knew about your existence were also shocked. All your achievements in those years were very shocking, and it can be said that your unit is the most powerful unit since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and it is also the unit that has made the most meritorious contributions. I seem to remember that you can't finish the medals of merit on your body, right? Some old revolutionaries don't seem to have as many meritorious contributions as you! You have made a lot of sacrifices for China, and you have also made a lot of contributions...... If it weren't for you, our Huaxia wouldn't be so prosperous, and your credit is great!"

"But, when I heard of your sacrifice, I knew that it would be difficult for the dragon's teeth to be like the dragon's teeth of the past. Finally, after our decision, we will hold a funeral for you, lower the flag at half-mast in the artificial sea, hold a funeral for you with a national funeral, and award you the rank of major general, the youngest general in China!"

Yang Chen listened and clenched his fists.

He was excited.

After all, who wouldn't want to be a general?

What's more, a state funeral is not something that ordinary people can enjoy.

If you say that you really died at that time, you will have no regrets in this life.

As a soldier, he is complete!

"However, as I expected, after you left, the dragon's tooth was not as good as before, and after half a year of decadence, it was somewhat relieved, and it began to be able to perform some difficult tasks, but it still could not achieve the same level of contempt as you did before. ”

Yang Chen took a deep breath and said with a smile: "Without me, the dragon's tooth is still the dragon's tooth, and the world we live in is not a world that will stop turning without anyone." It's time for me to teach them everything I can teach them, and I believe they can do it well, and all they need is to leave the protection of the eagle and spread their wings and soar!"

The Great Elder nodded, "That's right, you're doing a good job, and the dragon's teeth are indeed soaring very high now." ”

Yang Chen nodded, looking at the military uniform and rank in his arms, his eyes flashed with reluctance.

However, Yang Chen still sighed and put the things back into the box.

Seeing this scene, doubts flashed in the Great Elder's eyes, and he was puzzled: "What are you ......?"

Yang Chen took a deep breath and said in a deep voice to the Great Elder, "I'm sorry, I can't accept this. ”

"Why?" the Great Elder was very incomprehensible, he felt that no soldier could resist this temptation, this is a general!

Yang Chen said in a deep voice: "Since I chose to leave in the first place, I will not change my decision. Since I have chosen, I have no regrets. Also, I don't think I deserve it, and I don't think it's a glorious thing to do that like a deserter. If I did sacrifice, I would accept such a reward, but I didn't, so I don't accept it. ”

"But you fully deserve it for your merit and ability. The Great Elder said.

Yang Chen still shook his head.

He prefers to go to the clothes and hide his merits and fame.
