Chapter Ninety-One: Singing the Motherland
A napalm was dropped in the plane of Pilot B.
"?~". The voice was ugly and harsh. But Shi Chen still couldn't see or hear. Shi Chen felt that there was a void around him, and he raised his head upwards as much as he could, as if he was staring at something. I want to feel what is happening in the outside world as soon as possible, but I can't feel anything but myself, no sound, no color, no sunlight.
"Boom!"
A napalm bomb was around Shi Chen, and Shi Chen was splashed with napalm all over his body. The fire also burned quickly, but Shi Chen still didn't feel anything, it might be the return of the person before he died. It may be that a person is about to die, and the body will naturally cut off the connection between the brain and the sympathetic nerves of the skin. The fire was burning in my body, but I couldn't feel anything.
In Shi Chen's inner world, there seemed to be a sun rising in front of him, so bright, so penetrating to his heart, and the light was very kind, kind, enough to make him smile.
The fire was burning rapidly, burning almost the entire machine position. The anti-aircraft machine qiang, the surrounding corpses, and Shi Chen standing next to the machine qiang were all burning.
Shi Chen didn't know it at all, he seemed to see a lot of people, he saw his hometown that he had been longing for, he saw his children, his lover, his elderly parents, and those brothers who died in the Liberation War and the Korean War.
Shi Chen felt as if he really wanted to merge with those comrades-in-arms who had been constantly appearing in his mind. Shi Chen didn't feel afraid, but felt relieved. The symphony of fate is so complicated and intricate, but now it really has to stop. It was as if he was about to welcome a new world, a world full of peace, no war, no Yu Wang, only happiness and smiles.
The world is drifting away, gone......
The world is slowly coming, coming......
The machine was burned, and the corpses were charred. The people who were hiding in the bomb shelters next to them wept silently. They watched the three heroes fight to the death, and even in their last lives, it gave them endless motivation to fight.
The news of Shi Chen's sacrifice soon spread to the second company and to the Ji Qiang class. After Guo Lin, Baochuan and Zhigang heard it, they didn't believe it was true, and it wasn't until the commander of the second company Li confirmed it that they reluctantly accepted this fact.
Shi Chen's body didn't know where it went in the end, not only buried on the spot, but also left it in the volunteer martyrs' cemetery in North Korea. In short, in the end, the family still didn't see Shi Chen's body.
In the future war, there was no Shi Chen, but it was still going on......

I still remember watching the documentary film "Korean War" made by the Americans, whenever the American veterans mentioned the volunteers of that year, they always stared with their eyes, and they all expressed emotion and admiration, and they all marveled at the tenacity and courage of the volunteers back then.
I still remember that after some volunteers returned to China, they often heard the national anthem singing: "Build our flesh and blood into our new Great Wall." They will all be unable to control their tears, because when they were in North Korea, they really used their flesh and blood to build a new Great Wall for the motherland!
I still remember that when the history teacher told us about the history of "Resisting US Aggression and Aiding Korea", he would proudly say to the students: "The national prestige of the People's Republic of China! And the military might of the ** people! It was typed out at that time! Baidu will read the latest chapter of "Men's World Masterpiece Literature" for free for the first time.
