One day in 1983, the peace and tranquility of a small mountain village was shattered by a group of people. A small car stopped at the entrance of the village, and several soldiers got out of the car, and as soon as the leading soldier came, they asked if there were any people named Guo Xiangshan and Guo Ruilan in the village, and the villagers quickly took them to Guo Ruilan's house as soon as they heard it. As soon as he saw Guo Ruilan, a major general, he "pounced" and fell to his knees, tearfully saying: "Benefactor, I have finally found you, you are my savior!" Who is this soldier? Why did you kneel when you saw this old man? What the hell happened between them?
Inherit the legacy of his father's generation and join the army to serve the country
The soldier, cai yong, was born in 1919 in Taihe County, Jiangxi Province, to a family of poor peasants for generations. In the era when he was born, warlords were fighting, and the lives of ordinary people were precarious, and they worried about their lives every day. Such days did not change until 1931, when the Red Army came to Jiangxi and distributed the fields to the peasants, and the people finally had their own fields, and their lives slowly improved.
land reform
Everyone knows that the Red Army is an army that protects the common people, so they all actively responded to the call to join the army, and Cai Yong's father and uncle also responded to the call to join the army, which planted the seeds of revolution in the heart of young Cai Yong. One day he suddenly found his mother secretly wiping away tears, and quickly went up to inquire, only to learn that his father and uncle had died on the battlefield, which made him determined to join the army to avenge his father. When she joined the army, her mother was reluctant to do so, but Cai Yong knew that she was reasonable and moved with affection, and finally let her mother relax.
Embark on the road of the Long March and temper your will
After joining the army, Cai Yong fought bravely on the battlefield to kill the enemy, and soon won the attention of the chiefs, participated in many battles, and participated in the 25,000-mile long march. The Long March not only tempered his will, but also exercised his courage, and Cai Yong himself once said, "The experience of the Long March is the most precious wealth of my life." The Long March made Cai Yong's will firmer, and at the same time made him deal with problems more calmly and comprehensively. Let him win the battle in the future.
Long March over snow-capped mountains
Betrayed and captured, the breakout was wounded
On July 7, 1937, the Lugou Bridge Incident opened the prelude to the National War of Resistance Against Japan. Cai Yong followed the troops to participate in many battles, such as the Battle of Pingxingguan and the Battle of Pingjin, and he also became an excellent soldier in the war, at that time China was in the midst of internal and external troubles, there was the dual pressure of the Japanese aggressors and the Kuomintang reactionaries, under this double pressure, the people's life became more and more difficult, every day worried about life, when is such a day a head?
This situation makes Cai Yong very sad, he is originally a child of a bitter family, the will to join the army is to inherit the legacy of his father, so that the vast number of poor people have something to eat and clothes to wear, and no one will suffer from the oppression of the Japanese and reactionaries, but he cannot change the status quo, and the only thing he can do is to fight a good war and defeat all the invaders and reactionaries.
Long March through the meadows
In the midst of the vigorous struggle, some people in our army could not resist the enemy's sugar-coated shells, and launched a mutiny to tie up the eight leaders of the Eighth Route Army, including Cai Yong, and prepared to ask for credit from the Kuomintang side. Several leaders of the Eighth Route Army were kidnapped, and the situation was extremely critical, as if it had become a foregone conclusion and could not be reversed, but Cai Yong and the rest did not give up, but after consultation, decided to launch a breakthrough in the early morning. This breakthrough can be said to be very smooth, they successfully broke through the enemy's blockade; but it can also be said that it was very unsmooth, Cai Yong was hit on the head by the enemy's stray bullets when leading everyone to break through, fell to the ground for a while and lost consciousness, and then was desperately brought back by his comrades-in-arms to take back a life.
On the battlefield
His life was snatched back, but he was still seriously injured. The team carrying the seriously wounded forward will greatly affect the speed and combat effectiveness of the team, not to mention that they are facing well-equipped enemy troops. After a difficult discussion, everyone decided to put Cai Yong in a small mountain village to recuperate, and then let Cai Yong rush back to the big army when his injuries were almost recovered. They all thought that this was only a short separation, who knew that this experience would later have a great impact on Cai Yong, allowing him to continue to search for his benefactor for the next 43 years.
Pretending to be married to an unmarried girl in crisis
Cai Yong was sent to recuperate in a rural family with only his father and unmarried daughter. His father's name is Guo Xiangshan, a local langzhong, and his daughter's name is Guo Ruilan, who has just turned 18 years old and is not yet married. The father and daughter knew that it was an Eighth Route Army soldier who had been sent over, and even though they understood that the Eighth Route Army soldiers were in their home, they would take great risks, but they did not hesitate to agree, because they knew that the Eighth Route Army was the army of the people, the army that protected the people.
Care for the wounded
During his recuperation, Cai Yong received meticulous care from his father and daughter, and his injuries were slowly improving, just when Cai Yong thought that he was about to return to the army, the enemy suddenly sealed off Cai Yong's village and searched for Cai Yong door to door, at this time it was too late to transfer Cai Yong. The enemy pressed forward step by step, and every time he went to a house, he swept the whole house from the inside out, never sparing a dead end, and must find Cai Yong. The enemy's footsteps were getting closer and closer, and Cai Yong and the three of them seemed to be able to hear the footsteps of the enemy and approach them step by step. The three of them were beating fast but there was nothing they could do but wait for the final result. Suddenly, Guo Xiangshan seemed to have been struck by lightning, and he shook his head and thought of a good way.
Military and civilian fish water conditions
He quickly let Cai Yong lie on the bed and said to him and his daughter, "You lie down."
Playing leper in bed, my daughter pretending to be your wife to take care of you, leprosy is contagious, presumably they don't dare to come and see. As he spoke, he prepared to close the door. Cai Yong quickly refused when he heard it, because Guo Ruilan was not yet married, and playing his husband would affect the innocence of the girl's family and delay others.
The enemy was pressing forward step by step, but Cai Yong and Guo Xiangshan were deadlocked, and Guo Ruilan suddenly said: "I am willing to pretend to be your wife, and I am not afraid of being affected by the innocence, because you are a good person." Cai Yong was finally impressed by Guo Ruilan's words and no longer resisted, they were just ready, the enemy kicked in the door. The enemy's eyes widened with a spear in his hand, and as he swept the courtyard, he said, "If you hide the eight roads and hand it over quickly, I will spare you from death." "It was as if they were the Heavenly King Lao Tzu."
Guo Xiangshan quickly greeted him, and with a flattering smile on the corner of his mouth, he said, "Dear military masters, we don't have eight roads here, only me and my daughter and a son-in-law waiting to die." He had leprosy, which was very contagious, and no one dared to approach him except my bitter daughter. As soon as the words fell, he heard his daughter's crying, and while crying, he lamented that his fate was miserable, and his married husband was suffering from leprosy, and his life was short, accompanied by the man's weak exhortation.
As soon as he heard this, the enemy hesitated, not knowing whether he still wanted to go in, Guo Xiangshan looked at this situation, sighed and prepared to slowly open the curtain, the enemy did not hesitate when he saw this battle, quickly stopped Guo Xiangshan, and immediately rushed out, as if the plane had never come before. After waiting for a while, Guo Xiangshan saw that the enemy was really gone, and then came back to discuss what to do next.
The enemy could not find the Eighth Road, certainly would not give up, pretending to be sick was certainly not a long-term solution, after discussion, the father and daughter decided to send Cai Yong to the nearby Eighth Route Army garrison overnight. Later, after Cai Yonghuai was well raised, he returned to the army to continue to participate in the battle, fought many victorious battles on the battlefield, and was praised and promoted by the chief.
Transfer eight ways
Cai Yong's heart has always been remembering Guo Xiangshan and Guo Ruilan's father and daughter, hoping that one day he can find them to repay the life-saving grace of that year. In the years he has been fighting, he has not stopped looking for this father and daughter, and he has also asked many people to inquire and look for them, but there is no news of the Father and Daughter of the Guo Family, perhaps in this war-torn era, the father and daughter are no longer alive, or they may have fled to other places in the war, and they can no longer see each other in this life, but his heart still hopes that the father and daughter are safe and sound, and hope that one day they can see each other again, so that they can repay their kindness.
Cai Yong fought while looking for a benefactor. Because of his operational application and proper command, he successively participated in the Battles of Pingxingguan and Pingjin and Guangxi, and participated in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and was awarded the rank of major general in 1955.

Seeing each other again after 43 years, how should he repay the favor
It may be that heaven can't bear to let the hope of more than 40 years be disappointed, 43 years later Cai Yong finally saw the benefactor again, which also appeared at the beginning of the scene, Cai Yong saw more than half a hundred Guo Ruilan directly kneeling and crying, after many years, even if the face has changed, but they still recognize each other at a glance, it seems that they can see everything in each other's eyes in the past.
It turned out that after the father and daughter transferred Cai Yong away, they were reported, and the father and daughter fled overnight to avoid danger, and it was easy to find it again in the vast sea of people, which also led to Cai Yong not being able to find them for so many years. At that time, the family took refuge, and the turmoil and illness could easily make a person die. Guo Xiangshan died of an illness in the refuge, and his daughter eventually returned to her hometown to make a living by sewing clothes for others and growing vegetables in the yard.
Cai Yong saw that the benefactor's life was so difficult, and his heart was very painful, and he hoped to bring the benefactor to the city to take care of it. In the face of Cai Yong's request, Guo Ruilan repeatedly refused, because she was used to life in the village, and there were probably many discomforts in going to the city, but she could not resist Cai Yong's repeated pleading, and Guo Ruilan still went to the city. In the city, Cai Yong took care of Guo Ruilan as his sister, but because Guo Ruilan lived in the countryside all his life, he was really unaccustomed to life in the city, and finally bid farewell to Cai Yong and returned to the village.
Although Guo Ruilan does not live in the city, Cai Yong will still call Guo Ruilan every month for living expenses and bring gifts to visit her every New Year's Festival. Guo Ruilan will also tell Cai Yong about his recent situation in the letter, and when he is sick, Cai Yong will definitely rush back to accompany him. After Guo Ruilan's death, Cai Yong went back to visit the tomb every year until his death. The two are not brothers and sisters but are more like brothers and sisters, and this relationship was obtained through life and death in the war years.
In that war-torn era, relationships like Cai Yong and Guo Xiangshan and Guo Ruilan abounded, and warriors were not afraid to protect the people, and the people were willing to take risks to protect our warriors, just because they knew that our warriors were fighting for them, and they were willing to protect them even if they needed to risk their lives. This is the water situation of the military and the people, the fish can not be separated from the water, the water is inseparable from the fish, it is precisely because of the existence of this spirit that we finally won the great victory in the War of Resistance Against Japan, this spirit needs to be passed on from generation to generation. In the new era, we must also unite the military and the people and strive for the prosperity of the country.
