Seeing this situation, the old man hurriedly stood up from his chair, "The chief can't help it, the chief can't do it." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"Sir?" Meng Chuan was stunned when he heard these two words, recalling what the old man said just now, Meng Chuan suddenly felt full of loopholes.

If you think about it, a veteran who participated in the War of Liberation and the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, even if he returns to his hometown after being discharged from the army in 55 years, he will never be just a farmer.

Just now the old man said that he was a soldier in 48 years, that is, he was a soldier for seven years, a veteran who has been a soldier for seven years, maybe he has no culture at all, even at that time in the army, cultural knowledge has been fully popularized, and if he has been a soldier for seven years, it is not an exaggeration to say that at least the words that should be recognized can be basically recognized.

In those days, being able to read and write was definitely a powerful skill, and if the old man returned to the village, he should be a village cadre, and the village cadre had pension insurance, and if he retired at the age of 60, he would have a pension, how could he be reduced to picking up garbage?

And he himself has been injured, and there should still be a subsidy of more than 1,000 yuan every year, and that gun hole is 100% real, this Meng Chuan can definitely tell it.

It seems that what the old man said to himself was half-truthful.

Meng Chuan took out another hundred yuan at this time and handed it to the old man, "Old man, how many years have you been retired?" ”

The old man took the money, and his happy mouth couldn't close, "Five or five years, at that time, the military reform, the soldiers recruited by the army were compulsory soldiers, and we retired from the army and went home to farm." ”

Meng Chuan stared at the old man's eyes for a moment, he was definitely not lying, so he smiled: "Old man, I am also a soldier, so I know the army very well, since you are the home of the 55 years of military reform, it should be the rank that only the officers and soldiers of the People's Liberation Army only have when the 55 years of military reform are unknown, you can recognize me as a captain at a glance, I'm afraid I didn't do it in the PLA." ”

When the old man heard this, his heart chuckled.

Meng Chuan looked at the old man's cautious eyes and calmed his tone, "Old man, will you tell me the truth, now this is the 21st century, and things like what you have experienced at your age are precious treasures, and you don't need to hide them." Come to think of it, you've been out of the army for more than 60 years now, and even if it's something that needs to be kept secret, there's no secret to tell now. ”

The old man thought for a while and sighed, "Comrade Chief, since you have asked so, I will tell the truth, I am actually not a volunteer army, I was pulled into the GMD army by Lazhuang Ding, but in the first battle, I was captured by the PLA, and then I became the PLA and participated in the three major battles. ”

During the War of Liberation, in order to replenish the soldiers, the GMD army was wanton to pull the Zhuang Ding, basically as long as it was a young man, it was necessary to pull it to fight.

If you think about it, how can a peasant who goes to the battlefield with a random gun work for GMD, so many of them are crushed at the touch of a button, and then surrender one after another.

At that time, the territory of the People's Liberation Army was getting bigger and bigger, and more and more soldiers were needed, so the GMD prisoners were politically educated, and then let them join the PLA.

As soon as the old man said this, he could explain why he called Meng Chuan 'sir'.

Generally, the word 'chief' is not allowed to appear in the PLA troops, Meng Chuan originally called the word 'chief' when he first joined the army, but he was later told by the veterans that the word 'chief' is not allowed in the army, so it was changed later.

The old man sighed, "Because my background is not good, when I return to the village, I can't be a village official, so I can only continue farming." But at that time, I was already very happy to be able to farm, plus I still knew Braille, and I could usually help someone write a letter on my behalf, and my life was still very good, but I was old and couldn't do any work, so I could only come out and pick up some garbage and sell it for some money. ”

Meng Chuan sighed, "If the old man hadn't been pulled to the GMD team by Lazhuang Ding at the beginning, he would definitely not have lived like this now with his qualifications for participating in the War of Liberation and the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea." ”

But now it's different from the original, just with these qualifications of the old man, it is definitely a great wealth, "Old man, our army will have an activity to visit disabled veterans in the later stage, and we will also send you some rice and flour oil, if you don't give me the address, we will go over to visit you with some staff of the Armed Forces Department of the Civil Affairs Bureau later." ”

The old man's life was not good, and when he heard that someone would come to visit him later, he hesitated for a moment before telling Meng Chuan the address.

After Meng Chuan took out a piece of paper and took notes, he said with a smile: "Old man, if you are not telling me about the situation of the war at that time." ”

It was not the first time that the old man had heard such a request, so he cleared his throat, "Comrade Little Chief, then I will tell you about the most beautiful battle we have ever fought at that time. ”

When Meng Chuan heard the most beautiful battle, he immediately came to his senses, "Old man, you hurry up and talk about it." ”

"Comrade Chief, have you ever heard of a rifle jerking off?"

"Rifle jerk off?" Meng Chuan was a little stunned, "A rifle can also fight a handjob?" ”

The old man smiled, "That's not it, it turns out that we have fought, it was a matter of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea, I still remember what our squad leader told us at that time, as long as you see a red signal flare, put up the gun and fight the plane." ”

At that time, we were all very happy, because we didn't have artillery that could hit planes, so every time American planes came, we had to drill into the pit to avoid being bombed.

I remember that it was noon, but for us, there was no noon or afternoon, because the American artillery fire was so fierce, and the sky was foggy at any time.

Our squad leader told us to load our guns and then look at the sky to prepare, and just as a few planes flew by, a flare suddenly came out of the sky, and we all put our guns up and shot at the planes.

You didn't see that formation, more than 3,000 rifles and light machine guns caught the planes, I only fired two bullets, and the four planes that flew over all rose with black smoke, and then fell to the ground and exploded.

When Meng Chuan heard this, he suddenly clenched his fists and roared, "If you fight beautifully, you should show those grandchildren how good we are." Don't think that at that time, we didn't have air supremacy, they could do whatever they wanted, this battle was fought well and beautifully. ”

The old man saw Meng Chuan's excitement and laughed, "That's not it, I remember that our regiment commander also said that using a rifle to shoot down an American plane is the first case in the world." ”
