Chapter 20: Old Chen's Past

"Chu Feng, come and sit with me. After Chu Feng sent Wang Dongliang away, Chen Lao asked Chu Feng to sit next to him.

"Old man. It's too late, it's almost 11 o'clock, you better rest early, we'll talk about it tomorrow. Chu Feng looked at the time and wanted the old man to rest first, after all, Old Chen was old, and staying up late was not good for his health.

"I'll go to bed later, I didn't sleep until two or three o'clock in the morning when I wasn't in the hospital. The old man refused Chu Feng's request.

"Come, sit here, and I'll tell you a story. Chen Lao asked Chu Feng to sit on the sofa next to him, and Chu Feng walked in front of Chen Lao and sat down, waiting for Chen Lao to tell a story.

"It was 1952, I joined our Volunteer Army, and in October of the same year, I followed the Volunteer Army into Seoul, when I was only 17 years old, but I increased my age by two years. ”

"After arriving in Seoul, our battalion commander asked me to be in charge of the logistics and security work, but I didn't want to, so I secretly changed with one of my comrades-in-arms to be in charge of logistics, and I also went to the front line. ”

"It's also my life, after three battles, I didn't die, I wasn't even injured, and then the battalion I was in was surrounded when I was in charge, and at that time the battalion commander found out that I secretly went to the battlefield, but the battalion commander didn't blame me, but let me be his guard. ”

"After we were surrounded, the battalion commander has been commanding the whole battalion, launched two raids, ready to break out, but the firepower of those countries was too fierce, we launched two surprise attacks, but they were unsuccessful, and then the army of the United States saw that we had not surrendered, so they used the air force to bomb us. ”

"Our battalion commander organized the soldiers to dig an air-raid shelter that can accommodate 200 people to hide, in order to avoid the bombing of the American planes. ”

"At that time, the battalion commander suddenly ran over and pressed me under his body, and after the explosion passed, the battalion commander was killed by * in order to protect me, and I was also hit by two shrapnel on the side of my body. ”

Chen Lao said this, wiped the tears on his face, he didn't expect that he secretly went to the battlefield, but killed the battalion commander, although it was not his responsibility, but Chen Lao has always felt guilty in his heart, he always thought that he killed the battalion commander.

"Just after the battalion commander died, the volunteers had two regiments of troops and beat away the devils of the United States who surrounded us, and I was admitted to the hospital in Seoul because of my injuries, where I met my wife, who was a woman from Seoul. ”

"Because of the limited medical conditions at that time, the two shrapnel on my body were not removed, and after the wounds were healed, the war was in a stalemate. At that time, after I recovered from my injuries, I wanted to go to the battlefield and kill more soldiers to avenge the battalion commander, but the people in the army never let me go, but let me stay in the rear and be responsible for the supply of the soldiers at the front. ”

"At that time, because I was in charge of supplies, I often met with my wife, Jun-hee, who was pregnant with my child after the war ended. ”

"For some reason, people from Seoul couldn't come to our country, but before leaving, I secretly brought her back to China. ”

"It didn't take long for our child to be born, and I named him Chen Jianguo, and soon after the birth of the child, people from the army approached me and asked me to go on a top-secret mission. ”

"I didn't tell Jun-hee about it at the time, my son left a letter for her, and then she followed the people in the army. ”

"I went there for 30 years, and I didn't have any contact with my wife in those 30 years, and I didn't know how my children were doing, until I came home after the mission was completed. ”

"Our neighbors told me that Jun-hee and the child both died, and that Jun-hee had no money for treatment because he was sick, and that the child had participated in the counterattack and died on the battlefield. ”

"I went to the army and asked about my son, who had joined the army the year the counterattack broke out, and the following year, he died on the battlefield. ”

"Since I was working in a secret unit, the people in the army didn't know where I was, so they buried my child in the martyrs' cemetery. ”

"Because Junhee is from Seoul, the officials sent her back to Seoul at that time, and until now, I haven't visited her once. ”

"Later, I returned to my original unit and have been engaged in the research and development and testing of weapons, and I have been engaged in it until now. ”

After Chen Lao said this, he was already in tears, Chen Lao had never told anyone about these things, including Lao Jin and Old Man Wang!

Chu Feng on the side also fell silent after listening to what Chen Lao said, he didn't know how to comfort Chen Lao, but Chu Feng made up his mind and would definitely do his best to treat Chen Lao.

"Old Chen, your battalion commander won't blame you, so you don't have to blame yourself too much, as for you to work in the secret unit later, it was for the construction of the country, no one will complain about you, but we should thank you all our lives. ”

"Without the dedication of your generation, there would be no security for our generation. ”

Chu Feng is not a particularly emotional person, but Chu Feng has a hot heart, people like Chen Lao are the most respected, for the country's national defense construction, give up their small family to take care of everyone.

"Alas, I'm old, and I can't keep this thing in my heart all the time, so I want to tell you, don't think I'm an old man. The old man sighed, this sigh contained too much helplessness and sadness.

Chen Lao has dedicated his life to the country, and Chen Lao is the real hero.

"Okay, let's go back to sleep. Chen Lao told the secret that had been hidden in his heart for decades, and suddenly felt a lot more relaxed in his heart.

Chu Feng hurriedly stood up, helped Chen Lao to the bed, and then covered the quilt for him, Chu Feng went back to the sofa directly, preparing to spend the night on the sofa first, and let Old Man Wang come over tomorrow to make a small bed.

Lying on the sofa, Chu Feng quickly fell asleep.

At 7 o'clock the next morning, a little nurse came in with a small cart and found a young man lying on the sofa.

Of course, the little nurse knew who was in this ward, but he didn't understand who this young man was!
