These people are the heroes of our nation, but also the heroes of our country, our country has always been rewarded and punished, rewards and punishments are clear, for those who have made meritorious contributions we have never skimped on our praise, for those despicable little people, we will never let go of the disposition, after the founding of the country, on the merits of the reward, we commended 1614 founding heroes, and awarded them military ranks.
Now, a long time has passed since those years, and many of those heroes of that year have already gone to the west of the crane, so among those who have been commended, which ones are still alive? How are they doing now?

epilogue
These surviving generals are already centenarians, and having survived for a century, they are a walking history that has been accompanied by the establishment, establishment and development of New China, which is a very rare thing.
But from another aspect, in addition to the excellent physical fitness and very strong physique of these generals, the good care of the national government and other countries for them is also one of the indispensable conditions for them to be able to live in their old age.
And our happy life is even more because of such heroes in exchange, without them, where did our stable life come from, history should be engraved, and we should also remember.
