"Grandpa Lu, you are 90 years older than me!" "89 years older than me!" During the summer vacation, at the home of Lu Rongchao, a 97 year old veteran of the New Fourth Army at the second retired cadres' rest and recuperation center of Zhenjiang military region, six primary school students from class 1 (5) of Jingkou Experimental Primary School in Zhenjiang City excitedly surrounded the old man, saying everything. Chen Yulong, political commissar of the cadres' retreat, told the author that Lu Rongchao, born in October 1925, had a rich family when he was young. However, in order to fight the Japanese invaders, he joined the army at the age of 15 and became a soldier of the Third Battalion of the fourth regiment of the second detachment of the New Fourth Army. In August 1941, he joined the Communist Party of China with honor. He participated in the Yudong campaign, Menglianggu campaign, Huaihai Campaign, crossing the river campaign, the war to resist US aggression and aid Korea, and won the third level independent freedom medal The third level Liberation Medal and the independent meritorious medal. "Grandpa, tell us the story of fighting the devil." Facing the lively and lovely children, Lu Rongchao talked about the harrow ridge battle he participated in in June 1944. "... the battle was very beautiful, and more than 100 enemies were destroyed..." the old man's words were sonorous and full of pride. Seeing the children's listening, the old man's voice changed: "today's happy life is hard won. I hope you will study hard, grow up to be the pillars of the motherland, and build our country stronger!" "Grandpa, please rest assured! We will study hard and become the pillars of the country when we grow up." The children replied. Hearing the children's firm answers, Lu Rongchao smiled happily. (news agency)
