You say, "Introduce someone to everyone." She is our honored guest. Daughter of the late General Chen Shizhao. ”

All eyes fell on me at once. A whole 1000 men's eyes! I've never been stared at by so many men in my life!

I felt like my skin was burning all over my body, and there were countless ants crawling on my face.

You come up to me, and you say, "Qin'er, come to the front." Let everyone see you. ”

You took my hand again and let me walk to the center of the platform. Your hand holds my hand tight. I feel the power flowing from your hands. So, I straightened up, stood beside you, and held my breath for the first glimpse of this new army of the future.

You say, "Women can't go into the barracks, it's military discipline." However, for our army, there is always one woman who is the exception. This woman is her, Chen Qin'er. Why can she be an exception? Because the founder and founder of our army, the late General Chen Shizhao, lives on her. General Chen's blood, at this moment, is running in her veins. ”

I love to hear you speak in the military. The way you speak in the army has a special majesty and calmness, an invisible force that makes people obey if they can't help themselves, which is quite different from the tone you speak in your home.

You said: "General Chen fought all his life and died on the battlefield, he is not without a queen. Behind him, he left such a daughter, and he also left the seeds of our army. General Chen Shizhao is our army and her common father. Our army and she are the inheritance and continuation of General Chen's life. She was born to be part of our army, she is a brother to this army, and she is a sister to all of us! ”

You say, "General Chen had been incorruptible all his life, and when he died in battle, he had almost no savings, so he left nothing for his daughter." He fought all his life and protected so many people in Lingnan from the looting and slaughter of foreign races, but his own daughter was born without a father or mother, and had nothing. At the time of his sacrifice, he didn't even know that he would have a daughter left in this world. This girl, her existence has never been known by her father, and she will never be perceived by her father again! ”

You say, "This girl, who grew up in my house, is my sister." I watched her descend into the world. Her mother died after giving birth to her, and she didn't even have time to hold her in her arms, but only glanced at her face before she died. ”

You say, "Qin'er has had one of her deepest desires since she was sensible, and she especially wants to know her biological parents. However, her parents did not even leave a portrait for her. Until now, she has no impression of what her parents look like. For her, her father is the sword hanging on the wall, and her mother is the everlasting lamp that she kneels down on her birthday every year. After I returned home from Kiyocheon, she celebrated her 14th birthday. When I asked her if she had any wishes for her birthday, she cried and told me that she wanted to see the place where her father had died, and that she wanted to know what had happened that day. She said that her father's spirit might still be in that place, and she wanted to stand there, maybe her father could feel her. I took her there. She knelt down where her father had fallen, and she fell on the ground and wept. I watched her weep like this, and I didn't know what words I could use to comfort her. When she stood up, tears streaming down her cheeks. She asked me with a trembling voice, why should there be war? Why do people kill each other? Why can't these terrible things stop when they cause countless heartbreaks in the world? Under her tearful questioning, I felt a deep sense of shame. I have strong arms and skills, but I can't protect the petite girl in front of me, I can't keep her from such pain, I can't let her enjoy the joy of her parents. It was with this deep shame that I followed my father to the city of Tocheng, hoping to do something to end the war as soon as possible. That's why we're here today, and we're suffering. ”

Listening to your account, I was reminded of the events of the threshing floor that day, and my eyes gradually filled with tears.

You say, "Today, I have brought her here for several purposes: First, I want her to come and see her father and have a basic impression of him. Although General Chen is no longer alive, the army he left behind is still here, our weapons, our armor, our half-moon battle formation, our horse pedals, our sword skills, our cavalry and archery foundation, all of these all contain the existence of her father, and they are another side of her father. We had the same calluses on our palms as his father, and on our feet there were blisters like her father, who stood in the middle of the array like we do today, who shouted so loudly and raised his saber like us. What we present to her now is her father's past life, past struggles, and past ideals. She saw us, saw this elite army, and it was like seeing a father! We maintain the spirit of this army, the spirit of this army, the tradition of this army, that is, so that her father can continue to live through us, so that she can see her father come to life through insurmountable death! We are all immortal of her father! ”

"Second, brethren, I also want you to see sacrifices outside of the military. We are not the only ones who are working hard to create peace. The girl in front of you, she is also working hard to create peace. Her dedication was to be born an orphan and never have the love of her biological parents. She's been paying for it since she was a baby. Maybe she won't die on the battlefield like our soldiers, but for the rest of her life, she will endure such sacrifices! Bear the burden of life as an orphan. ”

You say, "Women and children like her have left a lot behind on the path of our army's courageous advance. They are also part of our army, and they are also the soldiers of Taiping and the martyrs of Taiping. The pain and hardship they endured was perhaps deeper and more lasting than that of the dead on the battlefield. The death of the deceased is just a moment of pain, but how many times have they shed tears in their lives for these sacrifices?! They are struggling alone on the road of life, and what a long battle. ”

"Brothers, they are also our comrades-in-arms, partners in our rescue of each other, life and death. Behind each of our victories, they have to pay. When we are glorified for our victory, we must never forget them. Without their tears, without their endurance, without their long, helpless loneliness, we would not have succeeded. ”

"When peace comes, many people will be immersed in prosperity and pleasure, and will forget their hardships and ignore their suffering. However, we can't. We never can! They are part of our close relationship, the love and reluctance of our dead comrades-in-arms and brothers, and our own love and reluctance. They have sacrificed their lives for our invincibility, and we cannot abandon them. It is the duty of our military to care for the families of our deceased brothers. Turning aside the family of a deceased brother is exactly the same as not saving a comrade on the battlefield! With such an indifferent heart, such a selfish heart, the more we fight, the more we will only exacerbate the cruelty and darkness of this world, and we will not be able to pave the way for a happy life in the world with our lives. So why do we have to go through so much trouble here! Why do we need to put so much hurt, weariness and sweat into letting our beloved, our brother's beloved, live in a cruel and darker world. ”

You say, "We! 1,000 such powerful arms! We! So many brave men! If we can't even take care of such a girl standing in front of us, our dependents, our sisters, then what else can we do for this world? What else can we do for this world?! ”

You say, "Take a good look at this girl." If the women of the Han land, if the girls of the Han land, can endure a lifetime of pain and great sacrifice for the arrival of the peaceful era, what kind of pain can we men not bear? What are we not to sacrifice? Aren't we as strong as these women? ”

Say, "Brothers, tell her in her presence that you are not worthy of them?!" ”

"Now, Jean, she is standing in front of us, with her father's eyes, standing in front of us and looking at us. Let's tell her if we can protect her and defend her in place of her father?! Tell her, can we or can't?! ”

"Let all the women of the Han land who have sacrificed and paid for the arrival of peace hear our answer! Can we defend them, protect them, and bring a peaceful and prosperous life to their children, can we or can't?! ”
