Found a Little Lucky Star on the Long March

In the winter of 1934, after the bloody battle at the Xiang River, Red Army company commander Shen Lichuan found a baby girl in a pile of corpses.

His superiors said that bringing a baby on the march would be a burden and ordered him to leave her behind.

Shen Lichuan tucked the child into his arms. “She’s my daughter. Just try laying a finger on her!”

And then:

When he carried her across a river, the water suddenly dropped by two feet;

When he carried her on a night march, the road ahead collapsed, forcing the whole company to take another route and avoid an ambush;

When he carried her into battle, three of the enemy’s shells failed to explode.

The political commissar: “...Could this child have been sent by Heaven?”

The mess squad leader dropped to his knees. “Company commander, please let me hold her for a while. I’ll be confident we can find food tomorrow!”

Chen Mazi squeezed his way over. “It’s my turn! I haven’t sneaked a bite of food in three days, just so I can hold her today!”

Shen Lichuan strapped his daughter onto his back without changing expression. “All of you, get lost. Why should I share my daughter’s good luck with you?”

Everyday life | No System | The smallest things bring both laughter and tears

One little lucky star, a group of battle-hardened soldiers, and the hardest road of all.

But with her there, their hearts are warm and the road shines bright.
