Great Power Reclamation

The summer in northern Xinjiang is equally hot at noon. Wei Quanyou has a hard time driving the flock of sheep on the border. He is 68 years old this year. Although he still has roots in his footsteps, his physical strength has deteriorated a lot.

With the aging of his generation, many people have no way to patrol the border, because their bodies can no longer bear such a long-distance trek every day.

In fact, his son-in-law has persuaded him many times, telling him not to be like this every day. After all, the relationship between the two countries is very good now, and after the redefinition of the border, there is no so-called disputed area. It is happy to say hello and give each other some gifts.

Sometimes you don’t even see soldiers from neighboring countries for several days. Their restrictions are not strict, especially things like border patrols, which are often not implemented in place.

But Wei Quanyou is still persisting. Although the meaning of persistence at this moment is different from before, it is because he feels that this is a kind of responsibility, a responsibility that he has had since he put on the military uniform.

The duty of a soldier has never been to invade, but to defend the country, defend the territorial integrity of the motherland, and fight for every inch of land!

Thanks to the careful care of his old comrade-in-arms Ye Wancheng, his rheumatism has healed a lot. Although it is still sore when it is cloudy and rainy, his walking is basically unaffected.

Wei Quanyou is a person who doesn't like to flatter, and based on his relationship with Ye Wancheng, he could have a very good life in the second half of his life, and his children will be properly arranged.But he was firmly stopped by him.

In his mind, the reason why he and Ye Wancheng have always had a good relationship is because they once got into a nest and shared a nest.

If he didn't have that experience, surely he and Ye Wancheng wouldn't have had any intersections in the future?Therefore, during the years when Ye Wancheng was in power, if Ye Wancheng didn't look for him, he would have never contacted Ye Wancheng once.

The reason why the second daughter was able to come back was because they were too old and had no one to take care of them, so they left their work and brought their husbands.When I came here, I had nothing, and the family of four made a living by herding sheep and cattle.

It was later that the military reclamation city expanded, and the daughter and son-in-law became employees of the military reclamation city.Now the daughter and son-in-law are both in the headquarter of the Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Corporation, the daughter has become the branch manager, and the son-in-law is still an ordinary employee, usually taking care of the crops and patrolling the border.

But from the day he retired, none of the sheep belonged to him, and they all belonged to the child soldiers at the border stations.

My wife laughed and scolded: "Shouldn't you be fired? You're all old and white, and people feel that standing with you is an embarrassment to the country!"

The only person he is grateful for in this life is his wife. This woman has never had a good day since she married him.Not only did he have to work, but he also gave birth to three children.It was time to go to the city to enjoy the blessings, but I just couldn't let him go.

It’s just that he was too old for the child soldiers to shout out, so he let them go. For this reason, he complained to his wife: “I was fired from the army by these children.”

Since then, I have never been unbalanced in my heart. I can't fight a war, so I can be the logistics head office, right?

There are two happiest things for him every day. The first thing is that every morning, the national anthem is played and the national flag is raised on the flagpole. At this time, he must be straight and performing standard military salutes.

After decades, he can't remember how many veterans he sent away, and how many new recruits he welcomed?Every time a new veteran is handed over, the veteran will bring the new recruits to report to him.

They are all calves in their eighteenth or nineteenth year. They are just growing up, and they need meat!However, the nature of the army does not allow them to graze their own animals, so Wei Quanyou is their logistics commander. Except for the supplies from the superiors, it all depends on Uncle Wei's relief.

Therefore, Wei Quanyou has now elevated sheep herding to the same level as patrolling the border.He has to ensure the nutrition of the children!

It's not that he is a noble person, it's all work, so how can there be any high or low?Mainly it is useless.He is a sheep herder, how can he deal with senior city officials?
He is naturally happy about the changes in Junken City. A company has finally risen to such a level. This is naturally the pride of every soldier in the regiment, and he is also proud of his old comrades.

At the beginning, everyone called him the old squad leader, and later called him Uncle Wei.In fact, Wei Quanyou still likes the title of old squad leader, he used to be a squad leader.

In the past, when the sheep were herded, the frontier station would keep two as a reward in winter. After retiring, Wei Quanyou didn't want one.

The second thing is that on the patrol road, when the child soldiers saw him, they all stood at attention and saluted him, and when he returned the salute, he walked from the beginning to the end of their queue, just like a general reviewing.

It's just that he never thought that all this had anything to do with him?Even if some people knew about his relationship with Ye Wancheng, he never boasted about it, and every time he just replied lightly, "We are comrades in arms just like you."Thereby putting an end to those who hold some purpose.

Wei Quanyou has not lived in the house in Junken City a few times. He and his wife have been living in the old house here.They have retired a long time ago, the wages of the old couple are not low, and their life is more than enough.

He has two daughters and a son, and now the eldest daughter and son are in Shandong, and he refused to come back several times, and he strictly ordered the eldest daughter not to look for Ye Wancheng, even though this daughter had called Ye Wancheng her father for two years.

Therefore, his current life is a habit, or persistence.When he used to patrol the border, some of the cattle and sheep he herded were his own.

His wife's words once made him very unconvinced, but later he figured it out, what age and what to do, if it is time to charge forward, if he rushes forward, it will really embarrass the country.

He is very satisfied with his current life. His grandson is eighteen now, and he is about to graduate from a technical school and go to work. Moreover, they have a house in Junken City. The future of the child will definitely be very good.

Even when my daughter gave birth in Junken City, she only stayed for one night before running back. There was nothing I could do, for fear that Wei Quanyou would starve to death.

Don't think that Wei Quanyou is reliable in everything, but he is really not good at housework.If his wife was not at home, he would soak the noodles in a thermos with some sheep oil and salt. He and Ye Wancheng had eaten them a lot back then.

In fact, Ye Wancheng is better than him. He knows how to make that kind of water-cooked slices. Although they are often undercooked, the taste is really good. Anyway, he likes to eat them.

Therefore, this man belongs to that kind of flawed man. He can do ten jobs, but if he doesn't have a wife, he will easily starve to death.When it comes to barbecue, the key is how can there be so much meat to roast?
Ruyi had already called him several times, telling him to go to a nursing home, but he ignored her.Because he felt that he was not that old.

Uncle Wei said, child soldiers, if you don’t vote, you won’t be given mutton.
