Leave him to beat Lao Chiang

The story is based on a news report at the time. A soldier who had just joined the People's Liberation Army accidentally misfired while cleaning his gun, killing an old farmer's young son. In order to strictly enforce military discipline, the army leaders decided to make the soldiers pay for their lives, and announced this decision at a mass meeting. However, the old farmer rushed to the stage and asked the leader not to implement it. It turned out that after a night of thinking, the old farmer felt that the People's Liberation Army was his savior, and that the soldiers were also children of poor families. For this reason, he asked the army leaders: Don't shoot the soldiers, let them fight Chiang Kai-shek. The crowd listened to his words and unanimously demanded that the soldiers' lives be spared. The army leader finally agreed with everyone's opinions, and the old farmer recognized the soldier as his adopted son.
