Chapter 255 The Story of the Veteran and the Captain
The arrival of the armed police soldiers made the surrounding people get out of the way one after another. The two armed police looked at Ye Chen and the young man who was still saluting the army and asked, "What's going on here?"

The young man was startled, and wanted to explain, but before he could speak, Hong Weiguo spoke, which made Cheng Guodong and the others tremble. It would be hard to say if this was reported back to the army. Yes, he must be punished.

"Armed police comrades, hello, there is nothing wrong here. I had a little misunderstanding with these little comrades just now. They picked up my things. I thought they stole my things, but after I explained it, I said it. There is no more. Something happened."

Hong Weiguo's explanation stunned everyone, Cheng Guodong and others were stunned, their faces turned red instantly.

"No, that didn't seem to be the case just now. Although I didn't hear clearly, what happened when he called you the chief just now? And the comrade just now, the voice just now was not explaining, but targeting. What's going on? ?”

The armed policeman obviously heard the movement here, but he didn't know what was going on, so he looked at the crowd.

Cheng Guodong breathed out and said: "Hello, comrade, I misunderstood just now, the chief in front of me is a thief, because we have seen people go to the countryside to buy military medals and sell them. I've seen it before, so I thought the chief was a thief, pretending to be a beggar in an attempt to win the sympathy of the masses, but I was wrong, if it wasn't for Comrade Ye Chen, I really thought that the chief was still Really a liar and beggar."

Hong Weiguo said with a smile: "Actually, there is nothing wrong. Everyone misunderstood. I am not a leader. Those who don't know are innocent."

Cheng Guodong looked at Hong Weiguo and said, "Then what the chief said before is true?"

"What's the matter?" The armed policeman looked at Cheng Guodong and asked.

Cheng Guodong glanced at Hong Weiguo and said: "It's like this, this chief, a mother at home is sick and doesn't want to trouble the government, so he went to the capital alone to work, and later all the money he had was spent, and there was no money left." I found a job, I don’t know where I heard that being a beggar can make money, so I just…”

After listening to Cheng Guodong's words, Ye Chen's heart was shocked, and he remembered the situation of the veterans in his previous life. After all, there are many local governments that cannot take everything into consideration.

Before Cheng Guodong finished speaking, he took out all the money from himself and gave it to Hong Weiguo, and then several comrades behind Cheng Guodong also took out their own money and gave it to Hong Weiguo.

With Cheng Guodong taking the lead, people around conveyed their hearts one after another, and several of Cheng Guodong's comrades in arms also took on the task of collecting money.

Looking at the situation in front of them, the two armed police took out the only 30 yuan from their pockets and gave it to them without hesitation, and copied Hong Weiguo's address.

Because Ye Chen had already bought food for Zhang Mengmeng, and he really didn't have much money on him. In the end, Wang Sidi took out five hundred yuan and donated it, which was also the most donated by all the people present.

"Chief, I don't know if you know the commander of the [-]th Army, Wang Xuefeng. I am his soldier."

Hearing Ye Chen's words, Hong Weiguo looked excited and said with tears in his eyes: "Little comrade, you know our regiment leader. Although I am a few years older than him, he is my big brother! His legs Are you better now, where are you now? Are you okay?"

Ye Chen quickly supported Hong Weiguo and said: "Chief, don't worry, our head has been the deputy head of the Qianwei Art Troupe for a long time, don't worry, everything is fine."

"As long as everything is fine, hehe, as long as everything is fine, I never thought Brother Shi would still get news from some old comrades-in-arms in the past 20 years, my dear old leader! Young man, do you know that when Captain Wang After learning about the enemy's plot, he led a small team to sneak into the enemy's back and destroyed one of the enemy's plots, but was caught by the enemy and broke his left leg abruptly. Enemy agent, my arm was cut off just now, and I only knew that the regiment leader was sent to the rear, but I didn’t know what happened? I never expected to hear news from the regiment commander Wang now, this is a good thing!”

Ye Chen didn't know that Wang Xuefeng's leg was broken in this way, he was quite surprised, took a deep breath and said: "Old chief, I will take you to the Licheng military area to see us when I have time. Commander, I can help you arrange the specific work."

"Young man, I don't need you to bother with this matter. How about it! Old chief, our company happens to be short of a captain. I think you are not yet sixty years old. Can you help me? Just take it with you. Let those little bastards in the area know what a hero is?"

"What are you going to do, old chief, our company is not far ahead. It specializes in international fur companies. We are short of a security officer. Come and help me!"

"Old brother, I am also a veteran of the Anti-Japanese War, but I participated in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and I am a little older than you. If you don't mind, you can often come to that teahouse to drink some tea with me to relieve boredom. I miss mine too. Those old comrades."

……

The surrounding voices came and went, Hong Weiguo couldn't help but shed tears, he looked at the crowd and said: "Thank you, thank you, I am not a chief, I am just a veteran, but I really thank you for your help, but I I know my own situation, so I won’t bother everyone, thank you!”

Ye Chen looked at Hong Weiguo and said, "Old chief, to be honest, I am also a cultural troupe who just arrived this year. The first performance was in the Red Star Nursing Home, where there are old chiefs of the 29th Army and many old chiefs of the 80th Army , in my heart, they are all heroes, especially when we were performing a drama, the old chiefs under the stage jumped on the stage angrily, they are about [-] years old! Just because we saw our actors The little devils who played, they pounced on them for a long time to repair, and they were separated by us in the end, otherwise our brothers would be miserable. Comrades, life is hard-won now, these are countless revolutionary martyrs who sacrificed their lives In exchange for blood, can we watch a veteran suffer this kind of treatment in what is now an increasingly prosperous country?"

The meaning of Ye Chen's words is very simple. Life is not easy now. In fact, everyone here knows that in the society of 95, it was only half a century before the end of the War of Resistance. They naturally knew the ruthlessness of that era.

"cannot!"

"cannot!"

"cannot!"

The first to respond was Wang Sidi, followed by Cheng Guodong and the others, louder and louder.
