During the war years, the life of the common people was very hard, and many people could not eat enough. In order to change this situation, many people with lofty ideals have joined the revolutionary contingent and want to spell out a new world for the people, and Zheng Guozhong is one of them.
In 1929, a 16-year-old boy was working in the fields, when he suddenly saw the Red Army passing through the village, he ran away from home without his parents and joined the Red Army, this teenager was Zheng Guozhong. Zheng Guozhong has wanted to become a great hero serving the country since he was a child, and the arrival of the Red Army is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity. But he knew that his parents would probably stop him by fearing for his life, so he had to choose to hide it.
After joining the army, Zheng Guozhong was deeply appreciated by his superiors for his heroic performance on the battlefield. Before the Long March of the Red Army, Zheng Guozhong had already become a regimental commander. In the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Zheng Guozhong led his soldiers to fight the Japanese army at Shinao Mountain, a battle that lasted for 7 days and nights, winning the first victory for the first stage of the Hundred Regiments War. During the Liberation War, Zheng Guozhong was the deputy commander of the Third Column of the Jinji-Hebei Luyu Field Army. In the Battle of Zhangjiadian, Zheng Guozhong led three columns and annihilated a regular brigade of the Nationalist army! It has made great contributions to the establishment of New China.
In 1949, when the Liberation War was coming to an end and Zheng Guozhong led his troops through his hometown, he finally couldn't bear to go home and wanted to see his parents. When he approached the door, he saw that everything was so familiar, and his heart was sour. Stepping through the door, he saw an old woman with white hair and an old man in tattered but athletic clothes roasting a fire. He didn't recognize who these two were for a moment, but when he took a closer look, he found that they were his parents.
The two of them also felt a little strange and went up to him to ask what was going on? Zheng Guozhong, filled with tears, fell to his knees with a thud, and he said excitedly: "Parents, I am back, I am your son Zufu!" ”
Zheng Guozhong left home when he was 16 years old and came back 18 years later. The two old men were both surprised and happy about their son's return, they thought that their son was long gone, but they did not expect that their son was not only alive and well, but also became the deputy commander of the People's Liberation Army. After the founding of New China, Zheng Guozhong served in the Navy as deputy commander of the Navy, and also took his parents to his side to facilitate his own care.
