Early the next morning, after Zhang Fan told the veterans the news, the veterans were all very excited. They went back to the military camp to see what the military camp looked like now. This was something they had only dreamed of.
As soldiers and veterans, they have very deep feelings for the military camp, especially Mr. Xue, who was extremely excited. Because the number of the regiment where Mr. Xue once served as the regiment leader is still there, and it is in the Tianjing Military Region.
With the consent of the old men, Zhang Fan quickly called Director Liu. Director Liu was waiting anxiously. Director Liu became excited after receiving Zhang Fan's call.
"How about it?"
In the military camp office, an old man in military uniform asked quickly.
"Commander, the veterans agree."
Director Liu said with a smile. After hearing Director Liu's words, Ma Wenbing nodded with excitement in his eyes. Director Liu looked at Ma Wenbing with curiosity in his eyes. He had been with Ma Wenbing for so many years and had never seen Ma Wenbing behave like this.
A lot of people came to the Tianjing Massacre Memorial Hall today. Everyone was waiting eagerly despite the scorching heat. And around the memorial hall, tall and powerful honor guards stood there, extremely solemn.
"Coming..."
"Very good……"
"The veterans are here..."
Seeing several buses approaching, many people cheered. These people were citizens of Tianjing City, including old people, young people, and children. When they learned that the veterans were coming to pay homage to those dead heroes, many people
They all spontaneously came to greet me.
They want to see these veterans, the people who have fought bloody battles for this city and this country. Some of these veterans are soldiers who participated in the battle to defend Tianjing. Although they have different political parties, they have one thing in common.
Their identity is that of Chinese soldiers. They have paid their blood for this city and this country.
The bus stopped, and veterans and crew members got off one after another. Zhang Fan and Zhao Wenbin also got off. This time, all the crew members were present, and everyone was wearing black clothes, looking very serious.
"salute……"
The soldiers waiting there immediately saluted the veterans when they saw them. Seeing this, the veterans returned the military salute with tears in their eyes.
"Company Commander, I'm here..."
"Teacher, I'm here to see you..."
"Sanwazi..."
"Captain..."
Seeing the monument, some veterans couldn't help shouting. They could no longer control their emotions, and tears filled their eyes. Zhang Fan and the crew supported these veterans, and their eyes were red. The people around them were all
I couldn't help but wipe away my tears.
Only at this time did they feel that emotion. Some veterans touched the monument and cried bitterly. All Zhang Fan and the others could do was gently help the veterans wipe away their tears.
Reporters in the distance accurately recorded all this with their cameras. The scene was extremely quiet, and no one made any noise.
The mourning music sounded, and everyone stood there to mourn the victims. Wreaths were brought to the monument one by one by the veterans, which was extremely solemn.
After laying wreaths, everyone's emotions slowly ended. The veterans entered the Holocaust Memorial Hall, and a large number of people also entered the Holocaust Memorial Hall.
At this time, these veterans became voluntary commentators. They began to tell everyone about the war and the atrocities committed by the Japanese army.
The surrounding citizens listened attentively and burst into tears when they heard the touching words.
Lay wreaths, visit the Holocaust Memorial Hall, the Military Museum, and tour Nanjing City...
After lunch, the bus set off again, this time the destination was the military camp.
"How's it going? Grandpa Xue, are you excited to go back to your old army?"
Zhang Fan asked with a smile.
"Of course I'm excited. I didn't expect that before I die, I can go back to my army to see it. It's worth it, it's worth it."
Mr. Xue said excitedly, with anticipation in his eyes. The bus swayed for more than forty minutes before arriving at the headquarters of the 18th Division.
"Dear veterans, we have now arrived at the headquarters of our 18th Division. Everyone, look outside..."
After entering the camp, the instructors sent by the military region began to explain the conditions of the military camp to the veterans.
"In the distance is our shooting range..."
"That's our field training ground over there..."
"This is the base of our Army Aviation Corps..."
"This way..."
The old people all opened their eyes wide, looking at this completely unfamiliar military camp, all of them were full of curiosity.
The modern military camp, energetic soldiers, and advanced weapons and equipment made them all feel very proud.
"Are you coming?"
At the Tiger Regiment station, Ma Wenbing couldn't help but ask again.
"Teacher, we'll be here soon. Hey, it's coming, it's coming..."
Director Liu suddenly spoke from a distance. In the distance, several buses drove over. Everyone on the bus stood up straight. Ma Wenbing even straightened his appearance again.
The bus stopped and the veterans got off. Only Zhang Fan of the crew was allowed to enter the military camp, and the others were refused. But even so, Zhang Fan was very satisfied, and he also knew that the military camp was not an ordinary place.
"salute……"
When the veterans got off the bus, Ma Wenbing and the others immediately saluted respectfully. The veterans also returned the military salute...
"Uncle Xue..."
After the military salute, Ma Wenbing looked at Xue Guanggui walking in front and couldn't help shouting.
"Who are you?"
Xue Guanggui couldn't help but asked curiously.
"I am a little soldier. Little soldier, Uncle Xue, have you forgotten?"
Ma Wenbing said quickly, looking excited.
"Are you Lao Ma's second son?"
Xue Guanggui asked quickly, with shock in his eyes.
"Yes, I am the second son."
Ma Wenbing said quickly. After hearing this, Xue Guanggui's eyes couldn't help but turn red again.
"well……"
Xue Guanggui was so excited that he was speechless, and Ma Wenhua also burst into tears. They never thought that they could still see each other after more than 40 years.
Ma Wenhua grew up in the military camp. At that time, Xue Guanggui happened to be the regiment commander, and Ma Wenhua's father was Xue Guanggui's political commissar.
It can be said that Xue Guanggui watched Ma Wenhua grow up. He even teased him when he was a child. However, when Ma Wenhua was ten years old, Xue Guanggui retired from the army and left the army.
At that time, communication was inconvenient. We had contact at first, but eventually lost contact. Almost fifty years have passed since then.
"Comrades, our seniors have come to see us today. Let us welcome you with applause..."
Within the Tiger Regiment, Ma Wenhua personally acted as a guide. Let the veterans visit the most elite regiment of the 18th Division. This regiment is the Tiger Regiment and is also Xue Guanggui's old unit.
"At the same time, among today's veterans, there is another person who is particularly important to our Tigers. He is the old leader of our Tigers..."
When Ma Wenming's words fell, everyone in the Tiger Regiment stared wide-eyed. The old leader of the Tiger Regiment was still there, which made all the soldiers excited and applauded. Looking at these energetic men,
As a soldier, Xue Guanggui couldn't help but look proud.
