In 1997, in Sichuan's Sandongqiao a pair of over 80 years old, through the neighborhood introduction came together, the two saw each other, felt like where they had seen, they did not think much, after a period of time together, they went to the Civil Affairs Bureau under the blessing of their families, marriage registration was a happy thing, who knew that the two held together and cried. It turned out that they had learned at this time that they were a couple who had been separated for sixty years. What's going on here? The two of them were originally husband and wife, why haven't they seen each other for 60 years? What's going on here?
Qiu Daming
The old man's name was Qiu Daming, and the old woman's name was Li Defang, and both were from Sichuan. Born in Rongchang County, Sichuan, Qiu Daming learned a good martial art from an early age, and saw that the people in his hometown were living in the depths of the water, so he did not hesitate to join the Sichuan Army. Because of his high martial arts and 8 years of reading, he was highly valued by the leaders in the Sichuan Army, and was promoted all the way, and soon he was already a second lieutenant platoon leader in the army. Later, he followed his unit to Xuanhan County, where he did not know that the girl who had been destined to wait for him would be here.
Sichuan Army
After coming to Xuanhan County, many people introduced objects to Qiu Daming, and the Li family, who happened to be next to the troop station, was also worried that their daughter would no longer be able to find her in-laws. Li family girl Li Defang was born very handsome, Hui Xin Lan, many people have come to mention relatives, but the Li family girl can not see it, so her parents look in the eyes, anxious in the heart, they entrusted the matchmaker to help her find a Ruyi Langjun, the matchmaker is also very dedicated, and soon helped the Li family to Qiu Daming, the two made an appointment at the Li family.

As soon as Li Defang saw Qiu Daming, he peeked at him with a red face and couldn't help but secretly agree. She felt that this officer was tall and mighty, heroic, and worthy of trust. As soon as Qiu Daming saw Li Defang, he couldn't help but salute a military salute straight. During the meal, there was an indescribable atmosphere between the two, which made the Li family's parents and matchmaker very happy. Later, the two entered the palace of marriage, and they met and spent the rest of their lives together.
Happiness is between chai rice oil and salt, two people you respect me, I let you, the little life is harmonious and beautiful. At that time, Qiu Daming's newlywed life was sweeter than honey, which made the other warriors very hot. But a happy life is always short-lived, and if the war is not over, the soldiers will not be able to disarm and return to the field.
One day four months later, Qiu Daming, who had finished training, dragged his tired body back home, who knew that as soon as he arrived at the door of the house, a soldier came behind him: "Platoon leader, urgent assembly!" Qiu Daming immediately ran back without thinking, and Li Defang, who happened to rush back, looked at his man's back getting farther and farther away, and couldn't help but leave tears, they all thought that this was just a short separation, and they would see each other again soon, who knew that this wait was 60 years.
General of the Sichuan Army
In 1937, when the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression broke out in full swing, the 20th Division of the Sichuan Army, where Qiu Daming belonged, was urgently assembled and went to Wanyuan County, Sichuan. On the way there, the regimental commander encouraged everyone: "Brothers! When we beat the devil back home, there will be no one to bully us again! The warriors also shouted in unison, "Fight the devils!" Fight the devils! Qiu Daming could never forget the crowds on both sides of the road, the words of the commander, and the sound of the devils.
The Sichuan army marched
At that time, the Sichuan army was under-equipped, and the soldiers wore straw shoes while resting while marching, and along the way they did not know how many pairs of straw shoes were worn, and they finally arrived at the railway station in a hurry. At that time, it was expected that the soldiers would take 50 days to arrive, but they only took 24 days, and then took the train to the Shanghai battlefield, which took only 41 days in total, and they were thrown into the fierce Battle of Songhu as soon as they arrived.
The straw shoes worn by the Chuan Army
In the Battle of Songhu, the soldiers faced the enemy's three-dimensional battlefield of sea, land and air, the enemy was well-equipped, while the equipment of the Sichuan army was homemade native weapons. But even so, no one flinched, they fought with the enemy for seven days and seven nights, the war was raging, the smoke was everywhere, every soldier was hung with color, and many people were sacrificed in the battle. At that time, everyone thought that they would sacrifice themselves on this position, and they all wrote suicide notes when the enemy did not attack, and Qiu Daming also endured the pain in his heart to write a family letter to Li Defang, but unfortunately, the family letter worth "Ten Thousand Gold" of "Beacon Fire in March" still failed to reach Li Defang's hands.
After 7 days of bloody battle between the Sichuan army and the Japanese army, they still lost to the Japanese army and did not defend the battlefield. But this cannot be said that the Sichuan army is not heroic, they did not eat or drink in a desperate battle, breaking the Japanese devils' dream of "destroying China in only three months"! They are well-deserved heroes!
But this battle was ultimately lost, and after the defeated Sichuan army withdrew from the battlefield, it was even more unfavorable to Chiang Kai-shek's favor, and did not give bullets, shells, or even grain! At that time, Bai Chongxi could not bear it, and when Chiang Kai-shek asked Li Zongren whether he needed the Sichuan army to help him fight. Li Zongren naturally agreed with his mouth: "Zhuge Liang still has grass boats to borrow, not to mention that the Sichuan army is hard-working and brave in battle, they are much stronger than the scarecrows, I want!" ”
Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi
In this way, the Sichuan army came to Li Zongren and had new guns, new guns, new uniforms, and a lot of grain. Here Qiu Daming quickly adjusted his mentality and prepared to continue fighting! He wrote a letter to his wife to report that he was safe, but because he did not know the home address, the letter could not be sent out for a long time, and before he could find out the home address, the Taierzhuang War broke out, and the family letter was still not sent to Li Defang.
Qiu Daming followed the troops to participate in the Battle of Taierzhuang, and when they arrived, the people welcomed them, and they also lived up to their trust and fought in Taierzhuang in blood. In this battle, they fought several rounds with the enemy's air force tanks, and finally won the Battle of Taierzhuang. This battle showed great might and power, fought bloody battles with the enemy for more than a month, and eliminated the arrogance of the Japanese invaders. They became famous in one battle, known as: Sichuan army in China!
Blood Battle Taierzhuang
Qiu Daming continued to follow the troops to the south to fight the northern war, he wanted to follow the troops to fight the devils, who knew that in 1942 he was hit on the shoulder by the fragments after the shell was blown apart during the battle, and in an instant his shoulder was covered with blood, because he was too badly injured, he was sent to the rear, and after careful treatment, he still left serious sequelae and could not continue fighting.
After retiring from the army, Qiu Daming was assigned to Lu County, Sichuan Province, and became a sheriff, mainly responsible for the management and protection of local shipping terminals. He worked conscientiously to rectify the local criminal and evil forces and made great contributions to local public order. In the dead of night, Qiu Daming often misses his wife and wants to take her to his side and live a happy reunion, but he is busy with work and has no time to find his wife. Coincidentally, once Qiu Daming caught 2 thieves, just in his early twenties is a habitual offender, repeatedly taught, can be said to be a prison as a home.
Republic of China Police
Qiu Daming looked at these two people with compassion, just when he was looking for a wife, he said, "If you keep like this, this life will be over!" So young, it is better to think about what to do later. I have a sum of money here, and you help me to go to my house and carry a letter, let my wife move in, and give you the rest of the money. ”
Qiu Daming originally wanted to let these two people do something serious, who knew that it was his kindness that made his wife and him almost see each other on the day of no meeting. It turned out that these two thieves took the money thankfully, but instead of helping Qiu Daming find Li Defang, they went out to spend the day drinking and came back five days later to tell Qiu Daming: Because of the fierce war, Li Defang's family has died under the enemy's artillery fire! This news was like a thunderbolt, and Qiu Daming's brain turned white. But the thieves swore an oath, and Qiu Daming would not have thought that someone would deceive people with such a thing, so he had to accept this news. Qiu Daming set up a spiritual seat for Li Defang at home, and before the spiritual seat he took out a picture of his wife, and the wife in the photo was still so beautiful, looking at him with a smile, and he carried this photo on his body at all times. Later, he re-formed the family, married a local schoolgirl and had a pair of children.
Later, after the founding of New China, Li Defang could only flee to other places and wander around because of Qiu Daming. Later, when society gradually settled down, she came to Rongchang County in Sichuan, believing that her husband was not dead and that one day they would meet again. What she didn't know was that Qiu Daming actually lived 6 kilometers away from her. This pair of mandarin ducks were separated by the Yangtze River and have not seen each other for many years.
Time is a sharp sword, which gradually removes Qiu Daming's appearance from Li Defang's mind, and Li Defang gradually believes that her husband has been sacrificed on the battlefield. In 1997, a well-meaning person saw that Li Defang was not in good health, so he took the initiative to take her to the Three-Hole Bridge where Qiu Daming lived, which became the fate of the two meeting again.
A well-meaning person asked Li Defang's name, and even if Li Defang dared to say her real name, she was already afraid of this name, so she said: "My name is Liu Zehua, and my children are not filial piety, so they drove me out, so they lived on the streets." In this way, Li Defang lived here, and there was a tea house owner lady nearby who was very enthusiastic, and when she heard that she was lonely and lonely, she took the initiative to help Li Defang find a good family. She introduced her own father to Liu Zehua, whose father was Qiu Daming, who also used a false name at that time.
Qiu Daming is 82 years old, Li Defang is also 80 years old, and the hardships of the years have made each other unable to see the shadow of the past, but the intuition is always very inexplicable. As soon as they met, they felt that each other was familiar, and they saw each other as they were. The two slowly walked together and began a twilight romance, but neither of them told each other their real names.
Later, with the blessing of their families, they went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register their marriage, and only then did they know each other's real names. Both of them were stunned, Qiu Daming quickly asked where Li Defang lived, Li Defang said the truth, after speaking, Qiu Daming hugged Li Defang and cried: "Defang, I thought you were dead!" Died at the hands of a Japanese devil!" Li Defang reacted that he was the husband he had been looking for for 60 years, and also hugged Qiu Daming and cried loudly: "Where have you been for so many years!" "In his prime, he left home and was already full of gray hair when they saw each other again. But the two knew that the clenched hands would never let go again.
The tombstones of the duo
In 2009, Li Defang died of illness, and a year later, Qiu Daming also went to find her, and the two were buried together and would never be separated again.
