A hero is a person who gives his all for everything, from beginning to end, without distraction. ———— Porterle
For thousands of years, strange people and strange things have emerged in an endless stream, some people are young and famous, winning the name of the deceased; some people are late in life, and they have achieved achievements in old age. They have done great things in their limited lives, and they have achieved great fame and success.
First, Jiang Weiping: Ill-fated, study medicine
Times make heroes. In the era of war, some people perish in silence, some people break out in silence, this man naturally belongs to the latter, and his "outbreak" is not to go to the battlefield to die without a plan, but to work hard step by step and grow step by step.
First of all, let's introduce this man with different and multiple identities: his name is Jiang Weiping, born in 1878 in a poor family in Fangshan County, Hebei Province, in the late Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the People's Republic, material scarcity, the situation is turbulent, the original poor family was even more difficult in the war years, Jiang Weiping's parents were almost struggling, and Jiang Weiping, who was hungry, went out to make a living at a young age in order to survive.
However, in the era of peace, it is not necessary to find a way to survive, not to mention the uncertain war years, Jiang Weiping ate and slept in the wind, he did apprenticeship and child labor, jiang Weiping who survived in the dark was almost dying, perhaps his life should not be extinguished, and he did not have a skill to operate later.
Subsequently, Jiang Weiping was taken in by a well-meaning person who knew medical skills, and seeing that he was really pitiful, he left him in the pharmacy as an apprentice, invisibly imparting a lot of pharmacological knowledge to Jiang Weiping, and the clever and intelligent Jiang Weiping learned a lot of medical and pharmaceutical knowledge during his apprenticeship.
2. Jiang Weiping: Abandoning medical treatment and joining the Qing army
Because of the fear of death, Jiang Weiping hated the invaders. The modern history in which he lived was extremely dark, and China's modern history was a long history of humiliation full of blood and tears: From the fall of the Qing Dynasty to the liberation of the whole country, for hundreds of years, foreign invaders burned, plundered, and committed many evils in the hot land of China, many innocent people were brutally killed, and the survival of the nation was in danger, and the countries that once dominated one side and were proud of everything became weak under the fierce pursuit and fierce attack of the Western powers.
In this special history, Jiang Weiping was one of the able people, who gave up a stable medical life, exhausted everything, exerted his light and heat, and joined the army of the Qing Dynasty. In the battlefield of guns and bullets, life and death are a thought, and no one can predict whether the next second will be an accident or death.
It seems that Jiang Weiping's life is destined to be inseparable from war, his desire to survive has made him die nine times in many upheavals, and his sense of responsibility makes him unwilling to settle for the status quo and ignore national difficulties.
When the country is in trouble, the pirate is responsible. When Jiang Weiping watched his compatriots being brutally injured by foreign invaders, he was indignant and enlisted in the army in his 20s, hoping to personally come to the front line and kill the enemy to serve the country. Unfortunately, the Qing army was not as united as Jiang Weiping imagined, and the Qing rulers were corrupt and incompetent, withheld military salaries, and lazy military strength.
Third, Jiang Weiping: eager to serve the country and join the warlords
Due to the scattered organization of the Qing army, Jiang Weiping could not convince himself to be with it, and left in anger. In the era when the warlord forces were divided, the Beiyang Army was more powerful at that time. Jiang Weiping was recommended by others to serve as a soldier under Duan Qirui.
Although he did not have a high level of education, Jiang Weiping had a high pattern, good medical skills, and strong courage, and soon became favored by the leaders at his superiors, and was reused in the army, gradually becoming the deputy commander of the Beiyang Army from an obscure and unnoticed small soldier.
In 1930, the 52-year-old Jiang Weiping became more and more dissatisfied with the Beiyang Army's "misdeeds and oppression of the people", and seeing more and more of the Beiyang Army's unreasonableness, Jiang Weiping simply gave up his painstakingly managed meritorious name, left the Beiyang Army, and found another way out. When he was more than half a hundred years old, he could not see any other hope of saving the country, so he returned to his hometown with his luggage, wanting to return to the countryside and enjoy his old age in peace.
However, Heaven did not spare this old man who was "ambitious and difficult to reward and had no way to serve the country", especially after Japan launched the Lugou Bridge Incident in 1937, the whole country unanimously resisted Japan, and Jiang Weiping, who was surging with blood, was no exception, although he was still old, his blood was still there.
Jiang Weiping: Joined the Nationalist army, but left again
In fact, this position is an idle post, and the confrontation day cannot play a practical role, watching many young soldiers die tragically on the battlefield, Jiang Weiping is heartbroken and helpless. He had become a national army, watching this army do nothing, anxious and angry. Later, arrogantly, he left the nationalist army directly and returned to his village.
In the turbulent years, it was destined that there would be no tranquility wherever he went, and Jiang Weiping left in anger this time because he was "mourning his misfortune and angering him" for the nationalist army. However, the limited ability cannot fight the invaders on the battlefield for life and death, and many people will think when they see this: "Why can't we be more stable when we are old?" "If there is no country, where is there a home?" Jiang Weiping was worried about the world, he saw the national situation very thoroughly, and he was always waiting for the opportunity to serve the motherland. This wish comes from the "contribution of practical ability" rather than "standing by and talking", and when the country is in danger, it is the real heroes, not the false righteous.
Jiang Weiping: The dust has settled and he joined the Eighth Route Army
In December 1938, Jiang Weiping, who had served in the Qing Army, the Beiyang Army, and the Nationalist Army, was still worried about the battlefield, and in this year, at the age of 60, Jiang Weiping encountered the 359th Brigade of the 120th Division of the Eighth Route Army. When the Eighth Route Army passed through Pingxi, Jiang Weiping's long-dormant heart once again had waves, whether it was the mental state or discipline requirements of the Eighth Route Army, which perfectly met Jiang Weiping's imagination of the army.
Jiang Weiping has always held that only when an army is strictly disciplined and has the country in mind can it go a long way. Whether it was Duan Qirui's Beiyang Army or the Nationalist Army, the military style was not correct and the discipline was scattered, and it was difficult to go long in the confrontation.
Only those who have experienced war know the hard-won nature of peace; only those who have experienced poverty know the price of stability. Jiang Weiping has experienced the pain of war since he was born, because of the war, the people across the country have been displaced, their families have been destroyed, and he hopes to exhaust his life's efforts to create peace and stability for future generations.
After joining the Eighth Route Army, Jiang Weiping began to accumulate and develop in a "big instrument and late success" attitude, and there were new breakthroughs and developments in his life after that!
6. Jiang Weiping: Saving lives and helping the injured, he was awarded the rank of lieutenant colonel after liberation
First of all, let's take a look at his performance in the army: due to his old age, Jiang Weiping naturally cannot compete with the young man with fanggang, and since he cannot fight on the front line, he will give full play to his strengths and dedicate his strengths in the back line.
At that time, the Eighth Route Army was short of materials and backward weapons, and many of the wounded were either killed or injured due to the lack of medical supplies, and the pain was unbearable. Jiang Weiping was always able to rush to the side of the wounded at the first time and give them emergency treatment, even in the case of the most shortage of materials, he would try his best to use the most primitive "soil method" to make drugs to alleviate the pain of these wounded.

It has developed well in the army and has not been inferior in agriculture.
In 1942, the 62-year-old Jiang Weiping was ordered to lead the young men to start cultivating land. This is too much for other guys in their 20s whose hearts are higher than the sky, but Jiang Weiping's patience has convinced them.
Later, Jiang Weiping served as the leader of the 719 farm group in Jiulongquan, Nanniwan, and led this group of young people to cultivate without fear of hard work, and this wasteland soon achieved a bumper harvest of grain.
Dedicated to light and heat all his life, he deserves praise!
After liberation, the 77-year-old Jiang Weiping was awarded the rank of lieutenant colonel, becoming the oldest lieutenant colonel in the history of our country, he resolutely did not retire, was assigned to work in major hospitals, until july 12, 1946, died of illness at the age of 86. He has spent his whole life contributing to China.
