We know that in times of national crisis, soldiers are always at the forefront to protect the country and its people. And the most valuable thing is that no matter how much soldiers pay, they never show off themselves. It's not like some people, before they can contribute, start to publicize everywhere, show off, and make themselves cattle. Compared to the great soldiers, they were like a swarm of ants. In the last century, the United States launched a war against Korea, and the Chinese volunteers left their homeland to embark on a journey to resist the American invaders. There was a volunteer army named Liu Zuokun, who was a member of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea at that time.
At that time, Liu Zuokun was just an ordinary soldier, performing sentry tasks in the army. But Liu Zuokun was on the battlefield, and he was definitely a tough guy who was not afraid of sacrifice. Once, when the volunteer army was transporting gasoline, the US army suddenly launched an attack, causing a large amount of gasoline to catch fire, and seeing that such a valuable material was about to burn out, Liu Zuokun rushed into the fire and snatched back dozens of barrels of gasoline. Later, because he was so tired that he couldn't move, he passed out. In view of this performance, the troops commended Liu Zuokun for his first-class merit. After the victory of the war, Liu Zuokun was disarmed and returned to the fields, returned to the hidden mountains and forests, and lived the life of an ordinary peasant. In the village, no one knows that Liu Zuokun, who was once a combat hero, was a combat hero.
He lived in anonymity for more than 40 years, and no one knew his true identity. But something happened that made the old man decide to go out of the mountain. The old man's grandson wanted to join the army, but the number of places was limited at that time, so the old man's grandson was brushed off. But the old man was anxious, he wanted his grandson to become a soldier who defended the family and the country, hoping that the grandson could inherit his legacy and be loyal to the country and the people. Therefore, seeing that the grandson was brushed off, the old man decided to personally go out on the horse and talk to the leader of the unit. Liu Zuokun found the location of the local army, but was stopped by the guards and did not enter.
The old man took something out of his pocket with his trembling hand and handed it to the guard, asking him to hand it to the leader in the courtyard. A few minutes later, the head of the army personally went out to greet the old man. It turned out that the old man handed the guard a first-class meritorious medal, you know, the first-class meritorious medal of that era, but in exchange for his life, only those who have made meritorious contributions can get it. It can be seen that the old man made immortal merits in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea. The old man said to the chief, do you think this works? In the face of the old hero's request, the army chief still has to give this face, and specially approves the old man's grandson to join the army. This is the respect for the heroes, and it is also a good soldier for the troops to defend the family and the country.
