During the war years, the founding generals were often injured because of their predecessors, and they also performed many wonderful stories.
Injury is not always a good thing, but after the founding lieutenant general Chen Kang was injured once, he was full of sweet warmth.
It was in 1935, when the Red Army attacked Macheng, Hubei Province, and General Chen Kang rushed to the front, resulting in a right leg injury, falling to the ground on the spot, and passing out.
When Chen Kang woke up, he found himself lying on a stretcher, surrounded by four girls carrying him, these four girls are not very old, very lively, singing mountain songs all the way, Chen Kang was fascinated by it, and even forgot the pain on his legs.
Because the hospital was far away, and it was a mountain road, several people walked for five or six days before they finally arrived at the hospital, but when the doctor was ready to treat Chen Kang, he was stunned and said: "Where is your leg injured?" Is it okay? ”
Chen Kang opened his pants leg to take a look, and he was also stunned, his legs were already good!
Until his later years, General Chen Kang said with emotion: "At that time, I was young, and my injuries healed quickly!" ”
However, General Chen Kang also had a regret, that is, he was young and very shy at that time, four girls carried him for five or six days, and sang him a mountain song all the way, he did not say a word to the girls, shy!
General Chen Kang was one of the four fierce generals under Chen Geng's tent, brave in battle, a pioneer soldier, so injuries were commonplace, and his body was scarred, and in his later years, a reporter went to interview him, General Chen Kang proudly opened his clothes, pointed to those scars, and introduced them one by one: This place was left when he was a squad leader, this place was left when he was a company commander, this place was left when he was a battalion commander, and this place was left when he was a regiment commander...
Finally, General Chen Kang said proudly: "Lao Tzu was injured once and promoted to a first-level officer, and my deputy commander was called up at the first level, and it was definitely not a sneaky horse!" ”
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, when Chen Kang went to the hospital for examination, the doctor found that there was still a lot of shrapnel left in his body, but due to the limitations of the conditions, there were still 11 pieces that had not been taken out, what to do? General Chen Kang didn't care, laughing, "Since they want to follow me, just keep it!" ”
Although General Chen Kang was injured many times, his health was very good, and he lived for 92 years, and as for the secret of longevity, General Chen Lao was also very good.
For example, after General Chen left his retirement in his later years, his life was still very regular, and he got up at 6 o'clock every day, ate breakfast, read the news, went out for a walk, and drank a cup of homemade "peanut milk" after returning.
What is homemade "peanut milk"? It is to mash peanuts and make a drink, one in the morning and one in the afternoon.
After the afternoon lunch break, General Chen Kang found a few more people to play mahjong, which not only enriched his life, but also exercised his brain, killing two birds with one stone.
After dinner, watch the newscast and go to bed at 8:30.
General Chen Lao also raised a tank of tropical fish, and sat next to him to watch it, watching the fish sinking and floating, preying on the joke, just like watching the world.
It was this regular and meaningful old age that allowed General Chen to live a long life until 2002, at the age of 92.
Finally, there is one more thing worth mentioning.
In his later years, General Chen Kang lived in the United States for a period of time, and when he returned, someone asked him: "Is the moon in a foreign country rounder than the moon in China?" ”
General Chen Kang narrowed his eyes and said, "Round fart, it is also a big cake!" ”
