In the intermittent remarks of his widow, I stared at the sobbing of his daughters Throughout its crystal clear, the old soldier’s voice and appearance .Once once again rising in my mind ... ... He is my only division in Jianghan Military Region four understanding of the staff of the four regiment Long - Comrade 巴方廷. He took Li Xiannian pony tail over the grass, over the Qilian Mountains .20 years of campaign, he was wounded 3 times, is the famous “veteran”.
