Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Cui Zhenshan, who was sitting next to Zhao Hu, looked at this iron-clad tough guy, holding a pocket watch and crying like a child. (Please search Bayi Chinese Net, the fastest updated novel website!) I am also very curious about who gave this pocket watch to Zhao Hu, so that this Chinese veteran, who is well-known in both the military and political circles of South Korea, will reveal this very confusing feeling in front of him.

Perhaps seeing Cui Zhenshan's confusion, Tie Xingwu, who had just taken over the power of the Northeast Military Region, recognized Cui Zhenshan when he walked in. Although the patriarch of the four great families of South Korea has retreated to the second line, his influence in South Korea's political and economic circles should not be underestimated at all. In addition, the group controlled by his family is a well-known large enterprise in South Korea. Such a figure, of course, is also an important object of attention of the Chinese military.

At the end of the war between the two Koreas, the commanders of their own families would accompany the team to participate in the North-South talks. And the high-ranking political official in South Korea at that time was naturally indispensable to participate in such a high-level meeting that was not open to the public. In addition, this time, the elder was helped by him in a large case, and found this doctor, and Yu Gongyu and private Tie Xingwu were relatively polite to Cui Zhenshan.

Soon he looked a little sentimental and said: "Patriarch Cui, this pocket watch is the pocket watch that Commander Han of the Volunteer Corps gave to the elder as a reward for his military exploits. According to the elder, this pocket watch was given to Commander Han by Taizu back then. Perhaps it was precisely because of this importance that the elder was later promoted to the position of commander of a large military region after the end of the war.

It's a pity that when Commander Han passed away, when the elder rushed to see the news, he didn't have time to see the last one. This made him feel a little sorry for Commander Han's weight, and he has always been obsessed with it, and regarded this pocket watch as a treasure. More than ten years ago, I accompanied my elder to inspect the border defense, and I was accidentally bitten by a giant poisonous snake that sprang out of the roadside.

At that time, due to the remote location and the poisonous snakes, I could not survive the hospital and died. At that critical juncture, we met a Lang Zhong who was passing there, and he saw my situation and took the initiative to rescue and remove the poison. So much so that I was able to hold on to the hospital and snatch this little life back from Hades.

But the elder is the kind of person who knows how to repay kindness, and we should be inspecting the border defense, and we have nothing of value on us except guns and ammunition. Although the Lang Zhong has always refused to accept the gift, the elder didn't want to owe the other party a favor, so he gave the other party this pocket watch that he was carrying.

At that time, the matter was urgent, and the elder didn't expect to find the other party again, so this pocket watch completely became a heart problem for the elder and me. Back then, I searched almost all the people in the nearby countryside to find the traces of this Langzhong, but it was still like looking for a needle in a haystack, and there was no news.

Now that I see this pocket watch, the stone in my heart can finally fall, and the elder doesn't have to say sorry to Commander Han every day, and lost the pocket watch he gave him. ”

Listening to Tie Xingwu's slightly sighing, there is a story about this pocket watch, Cui Zhenshan, who also served in the army back then, understands this kind of honor inheritance that only belongs to soldiers. Although this is an old pocket watch, it represents the older generation of soldiers, and the value of the responsibility for the new generation of soldiers is not measured by money!

Maybe he heard Tie Xingwu telling about the history of pocket watches, but Zhao Hu suddenly wiped away his tears and said: "Tietou, put this pocket watch back, I think this should be the elder in the sky." Knowing that I miss him, I calculated that I had this catastrophe in my life, and specially asked the person who got this pocket watch to come back and save my life. This is what the elder meant, and I can't refuse. ”

Just as Zhao Hu was saying these words with a little reluctance, a young voice suddenly came from the room. He said a little hoarsely: "Old man, since this is the will of heaven, then I think you should keep this pocket watch!" ”

As soon as the voice came out, the eyes of the three immediately turned to the person who said this. At this time, Han Ankang, who was still asleep just now, had already opened his eyes at this moment, looking at them with a tired expression.

Without waiting for the three of them to speak, Han Ankang moved his body slightly and continued to smile bitterly: "Regarding this pocket watch, my grandfather told me back then that this was the first time he traveled to the doctor, and he always felt guilty when he was forced to receive gifts. But when he saw that you were all carrying guns, he was afraid of rejecting your intentions and delaying the patient's rescue, so he had to accept your pocket watch.

I hope you will be able to take it back one day, but when he dies, he still can't wait for you. This pocket watch is actually a last wish left to me by my grandfather, hoping that one day I will meet the owner of the pocket watch. Return this pocket watch to the original owner, and let the grandfather go to this last wish.

In addition, my grandfather also told me back then that he had seen the old man in the photo when he was young and knew that he was a hero who stood up to the sky. So when he has free time, he will take out his pocket watch to wipe and maintain it. Even if it's me, I will take it out and wipe it every once in a while, for fear that it will break and I will be sorry for the owner of the pocket watch in the future. ”

In fact, when the syncope passed, Han Ankang knew that his energy consumption was a little too large, so this kind of fainting would occur. When the doctor gave him the infusion, he was actually awake, but he had been silently pranayama, not wanting to waste his strength talking. Later, I suddenly heard that the pocket watch that my grandfather often took out for maintenance back then still had such a secret.

This is really where you don't meet in life! The two generations of grandparents and grandchildren have become attached to each other's new and old generations of soldiers because of a pocket watch.

After listening to Han Ankang's words, Zhao Hu and Tie Xingwu also felt that they might really be married to Han Ankang's grandson because of this pocket watch. In the end, they owed each other the lives of the Han family, and the pocket watch was their elder, Commander Han. This is really the providence of God in the dark!

Facing Han Ankang, who said that he didn't want to owe favors in order to let the traveling doctor receive gifts, he did take out a gun and pocket watch, and let the other party choose the same, otherwise he would not let the other party leave. Perhaps it was this misunderstanding and Zhao Hu's tough attitude that made Han Ankang's grandfather have to choose a pocket watch. After all, for a soldier, it goes without saying that pocket watches and pistols are important.

But he didn't expect that in the end they would die and never see each other again, and this pocket watch was when his life was in the most danger. Miraculously turned a corner and returned to Zhao Hu's hands. The fate of this is really touching the magic of fate!

Zhao Hu, who was holding the pocket watch, knew that since this was also the old doctor's last wish, he couldn't shirk it, and quickly put away the pocket watch that was like a treasure. Turning his head and concerned, he said, "Child, how are you feeling now?" Do you feel uncomfortable there? Do you want me to let the doctor in and give you another double-check? ”

Facing the veteran's concern, Han Ankang squeezed out a smile and shook his head: "No, I'm also a doctor, and I know my current state very well." As long as you rest for two days, I believe you will be fine. On the contrary, the old man, your heart load is just a little better now, and you must not fluctuate too much, otherwise something really happens, and I can't do anything about it, and then I will be in trouble.

If the old man doesn't object, I wonder if we should change places for treatment, although the environment of this hospital is good. But it's not very good for you and me, I prefer a quieter and more empty place. It would be better if there was more greenery around, which would also help me recover, and it would also help you to regulate your body and mind, old man. Smelling disinfectant all day long is not necessarily good. ”

As soon as he heard this, Tie Xingwu immediately answered: "Boss, why don't you move to the military region to live in the cadre rest house!" The environment and medical conditions are good, and I think it will be good for your body.

Actually, I don't really like the smell of this disinfectant water, or you just listen to Dr. Han and go to the dry rest center to recuperate! There, you can still meet and chat with Political Commissar Liu and them, how good! ”

I know the environment of the military region's cadre rest house, it is indeed a beautiful environment in the shade of green trees, and there are also senior generals who have been relegated to the second line and an excellent medical team to provide care. Zhao Hu, who joined the army and was accustomed to doing everything by himself except for the guards, was very opposed to wasting so much manpower and material resources in order to take care of some of their old men.

But he also understands that even if he doesn't like such extravagance and waste, he can't stand the likes of other retired generals! Therefore, the commander of the Huaxia Military Region, who retired from the position of commander, has not lived in the retreat center for a day.

After retiring, he moved back to live in the old yard in the countryside, except for the nanny and driver hired by his two sons to take care of him, and his salary had to be deducted from his retirement pension, the old general really did not enjoy any special treatment.

It is precisely this rare attitude of being willing to be poor that makes many high-level generals of the Chinese military who are currently in office also respect this veteran of the 'Siberian Tigers' who was named by Commander Han that year. In any case, there are really fewer and fewer veterans in the army like Zhao Hu who have grown up participating in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea.

Therefore, in recent years, Tie Xingwu has really not been able to persuade the military region to entertain retired veteran cadres, and there are many old generals who are as stubborn as Zhao Hu. Even the former political commissar of the military region, who now lives in the cadre rest center, was invited by him as if he were looking at the grass and reeds. The purpose is to hope that they, the generals of the junior military regions, will do their best for these old leaders of the past.

What's more, compared with the dry rest houses of other military regions, Tie Xingwu asked himself that the dry rest houses of the Northeast Military Region are not as luxurious and wasteful as other dry rest houses, except that the environmental conditions and medical conditions are better. The officers and nursing staff assigned to the cadre rest house have also been reduced to the extreme, striving to not raise a single idler at the same time, and not let the old man feel that there is no one to take care of him.

Now that Han Ankang finally spoke, he wanted to find such a suitable place for treatment and recuperation, in Tie Xingwu's opinion, what place could be more suitable than the dry rest house of the military region?
