Chapter 254 Veteran, first-class merit, salute

Ye Chen took Wang Sidi's hand and walked to the crowd, but because there were too many people around, Ye Chen didn't know what was going on for a while.

It's just that I can vaguely hear some chapters and the like, and what money is there. Ye Chen's hearing is very good, but it's too noisy here, it's really hard to distinguish.

At first, Ye Chen just came over to see if something happened. As a soldier of the People's Liberation Army, he couldn't turn a blind eye.

Now that the situation is unclear, he had no choice but to grab the gap and slowly squeeze in, and was despised by the tourists on the side.

When he squeezed in, he saw a one-armed middle-aged man, about fifty, with a vicissitudes of life on his face. It is said that a middle-aged man of this age should be alive and well, and it would not be like this, but looking at it now It is indeed extremely abnormal.

A few other young people surrounded the one-armed middle-aged man here, looked at him with a smile and said, "This thing is only five yuan, and it's useless for me to use it. Throw it away, a piece of broken iron, what are you serious about?"

The middle-aged man begged: "My little brother, I have no intention of selling this item. If you don't give me money, I didn't force you to give it! But this medal is my lifeblood, so you can give it back to me." Bar!"

The guy who looked like nothing, looked at the guy with the broken arm and said, "You are just a beggar, what are you pretending to be! Do you know what this is? Military medal, military medal, do you know what it is? That is Soldiers who have made meritorious service can only have something, you, a guy with no arms and legs, how could you be the owner of the military medal, I think you are looking for trouble for nothing!"

Ye Chen frowned, and looked at the military medal in the young man's hand. The style of the military medal, Ye Chen could tell at a glance that it was a military medal for participating in the counterattack against Vietnam. From this point, it can be seen that this People seem to be soldiers of the People's Liberation Army who fought back against Vietnam.

"You said you were a soldier of the People's Liberation Army, why did you come out to beg for food? You are really lying. I think this military medal is pretty good. Now people accept it for three yuan. Otherwise, I will give you ten yuan. , deal or not?"

"My little brother, this is an honor I bought with my life, how can it be measured by money, please return it to me!"

"I'll give it back to you. Those who rely on begging for a living like you will pay back the honor. You can deceive the good people!"

As the young man spoke, he threw the military medal on the ground, and was about to step on it when the middle-aged man rushed towards the young man.

But as soon as the middle-aged man made a move, he was stopped by a few people next to him and fell to the ground. At this time, the young man's foot was about to step on the military medal, and the middle-aged man roared again. :"don't want!"

However, at the last moment, the young man didn't step on the foot, because Ye Chen tapped the young man's foot away with his toe, then bent down to pick up the military medal, and wiped it on his body.

Ye Chen looked at the gold-encrusted military medal in his hand, looked at the young man and said, "Brother, this is your fault, you must know something about military medals! This military medal was issued in 1979 The first-class military medal, this kind of military medal is not something that ordinary people can get, besides, those who can get the first-class military medal have certificates, you buy the honor of a hero with ten yuan, this is Isn't it a bit of a joke!"

The young man smiled and said, "What kind of garlic are you, kid? This guy has broken arms and legs. He also said that his mother is seriously ill. There is really no other way, so he came to the capital to beg. He is a revolutionary hero. The government can ignore it. It seems that you are with him!"

Ye Chen snorted and said, "So what if I'm with him? Uncle, I'll help you up."

Wang Sidi also ran over, regardless of the dust on the middle-aged man, and Ye Chen helped the middle-aged man up.

"Thank you, thank you, I'm leaving here now!"

The middle-aged man thanked Ye Chen and the two, and was about to leave when the young man stopped him and said, "Why, after leaving, you want to go to another place to cheat people?"

Ye Chen originally wanted to stop this middle-aged man and confirm his identity. There was no malice. Although there were people who could obtain first-class merit during the Anti-Japanese War, there were not many of them. Not during the War of Liberation.

"Uncle, let's ignore him for now. Since you are a battle hero and this medal is a first-class medal, there must be other things that can prove your identity!"

The middle-aged man nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, yes, I have other military medals here. I will show them to you, but they really cannot be sold. They pushed out my military medals just now, not me. Want to sell."

While explaining, the middle-aged man was talking to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen took a red book handed over by the middle-aged man, and three military medals. When he took the red book, his heart was shocked, and then he opened this small book full of respect.

"The 20th Regiment of the 132nd Brigade of the 378th Group Army: Hong Weiguo is a soldier of your department. In January 1979, he attacked the command post of the Xiaozhashan Regiment Headquarters against the enemy agents, captured the enemy agents, and saved the strategic policy and headquarters of our army with his life. For the personal safety of the chiefs, I hereby give the individual first-class merit medal. Hereby inform! Sincerely, salute! The General Political Department of the Chinese People's Liberation Army! March 1, 1979."

Ye Chen just glanced at the medal and the retired soldier certificate, and he was sure that the person in front of him was Hong Weiguo on the military medal, but he didn't know why he had fallen to this point.

"Everyone has it, salute!"

An abrupt voice came from Ye Chen's mouth and echoed in the small streets of Wangfujing.

Wang Sidi didn't know what was going on, and was still thinking about what Ye Chen said just now. Seeing Ye Chen's sudden approach, she had to follow Ye Chen to salute the middle-aged man in front of her.

"Funny, are you kidding me!" the young man said indifferently.

Ye Chen ignored them and just said to the middle-aged man in front of him: "Ye Chen, a member of the Vanguard Art Troupe of the Licheng Military Region of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, please accept my respect for the old chief of the Vietnam Self-Defense Counterattack."

Wang Sidi also imitated Ye Chen and said, "Wang Sidi, a student of the PLA Art Academy of the General Political Department of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, please accept my respect for the old chief who fought in Vietnam's self-defense counterattack."

Seeing this, the young man said: "Ye Chen, you are Ye Chen from the Avant-Garde Art Troupe. This beggar is really a veteran? How is it possible? You must be kidding me!"

Ye Chen said to the young man: "Comrade, please open your eyes and take a good look. In the future, please don't jump to conclusions when you encounter things, otherwise you will be regarded as a dude by others. This is a first-class military medal." There are also two medals issued by the Yunnan Revolutionary Committee in 1979 for the victory of self-defense and counterattack against Vietnam, and a medal for the victory of self-defense and counterattack against Vietnam issued by the Central Consolation Group, and the other is the new Long March Assault Medal , see for yourself!"

After the young man finished reading it, he didn't know what to say, so he quickly returned the things to Hong Weiguo and said, "Cheng Guodong, a soldier of the guard company of the 652rd Battalion of the 3nd Regiment of the First Division of the Garrison, has met the chief, please forgive me for my rashness just now. "

Seeing this, several people following the young man also saluted Hong Weiguo.

The armed police soldiers and the masses who had already rushed past at this moment watched the sudden scene in front of them.

Why did the boys who used to fight each other suddenly change their temperament? This seems a bit counterintuitive. Is this person in front of you a big boss?
