In the late Qing Dynasty, China sent the first batch of overseas students. They are all teenagers. There is a boy named Zhan Tianyou who is only 12 years old. He is very clever and eager to learn. He is determined to serve his country. Later, I graduated from engineering and returned to China. However, the Qing government did not trust local talents, such as building railways and letting foreigners run them. Although Zhan Tianyou is very talented, he can only be an assistant.

1905, the news spread that the railway was to be built from Beijing to Zhangjiakou. Britain and Russia are fighting for repairs, because they know the strategic position of this railway in China, and if they master it, they can control China. At loggerheads, the two sides finally reached an "agreement", saying that if China wouldn't let them repair it, they wouldn't provide anything. They think that without them, China people would never have built this railway.

The Qing government made Zhan Tianyou the chief engineer. Some people don't trust him, saying that he has more than one can chew, saying that he is courageous and persuading him not to undertake this difficult project.

9. Zhu Ziqing

Zhu Ziqing is a famous writer, Professor Tsinghua University. After the end of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, on the one hand, the American government supported Chiang Kai-shek to launch a civil war, on the other hand, it gained many privileges in China by signing treaties, and also stepped up its efforts to arm the defeated Japanese, posing a new threat to China. At that time, prices soared and commodities were scarce, and many people were struggling with hunger and death. The people are very dissatisfied with the United States and the Kuomintang government, and the voice of resistance is getting louder and louder. In order to support Chiang Kai-shek, the United States sent some flour, saying that it would "help" the people of China and let the people of China "thank" the United States and not oppose it.

Zhu Ziqing saw through the intention of the United States and thought that American relief was an insult to the people of China. Together with some scholars, he solemnly signed his name on a declaration. That declaration stated that it resolutely refused American "aid" and did not accept American flour. At that time, Zhu Ziqing suffered from a serious stomach trouble. His body is very thin, weighing less than 40 kilograms. He often vomits and even can't sleep all night. Refusing to receive relief powder means that the monthly living expenses will be reduced by 6 million French francs, making life more difficult. But in order to maintain China's dignity, he resolutely rejected those "rewards" with ulterior motives. He wrote in his diary: "I firmly believe that my signature is correct." Because we oppose the US policy of arming Japan, we should not shirk our responsibilities if we want to take direct action. "

Two months later, Zhu Ziqing died of poverty due to illness. He would rather starve to death than insult "relief", showing the dignity that a China person should have.

Lian Po 10

During the Warring States Period, there was a famous military general named Lian Po. He is not only good at martial arts and archery, but also good at fighting soldiers. Great countries like Qin and Qi often attacked Zhao, and the prince of Zhao used Lian Po as commander in chief, and defeated the enemy many times. When the enemy heard Lian Po's name, they were all scared. But later, the prince of Zhao fell into the trap of Qin, thinking that Lian Po was old and useless, and reassigned a young general, Zhao Kuo, to succeed him. Zhao Kuo's pride underestimates his enemy, which defeats Zhao, and Zhao almost perishes.

The prince of Zhao wants to use veteran Lian Po again and send an envoy to see how the old general is doing and whether he is still willing to serve his country. Lian Po was very happy to see the angel of the Prince of Zhao. In order to show their prestige, they can still go out and make contributions to the country. He ate a bucket of rice and ten pounds of meat at a meal. After eating, he put on his armor, jumped on his horse, drew his bow and arrow, and stabbed him with a gun. Sure enough, he is extraordinary. He said to the messenger, "Look at me. Although I am old, I can eat and fight. As long as the king is willing to use me, I will die and go back to lead the troops to fight at once! "

After the messenger left, Lian Po looked forward to the call of the prince of Zhao day and night, but never waited. It turned out that the messenger accepted a bribe from a bad guy named Guo Kai, and deliberately lied in front of the prince of Zhao, saying that Lian Po had a good appetite, but he took a shit three times in a short time. The prince of Zhao felt that Lian Po was really useless, so he stopped calling him.

Lian Po struggled for the peace of Zhao all his life, and he still hoped to make some contributions to the country in his later years. He said to people, "I really want to lead Zhao's soldiers to the front one day!" "

As long as there is breath, we will serve the motherland wholeheartedly. This is the true nature of a patriotic hero.
