Another year when the azaleas bloom, the azaleas all over the mountains, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by The unique scenery of Jinggangshan’s “red” and “green” complement each other makes people linger. In addition to the colorful natural landscape, Jinggangshan is also a nationally renowned red tourism destination, with red marks permeating every corner of Jinggangshan.
In the late 1920s, proletarian revolutionaries such as Mao Zedong and Zhu De led the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army to carry out the arduous Jinggangshan struggle, created China's first rural revolutionary base, and created the revolutionary path of "surrounding the cities in the countryside and seizing power with armed force." This special red history makes Jinggangshan a prestigious revolutionary holy land, and is also known as the "cradle of the Chinese revolution" and the "cornerstone of the People's Republic of China."
Nowadays, what is evaporated is the smoke of gunpowder, and what is immortal is the spirit of Jinggangshan.
Two years ago, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee, President of the People's Republic of China, and Chairman of the Central Military Commission Xi Jinping pointed out during his inspection in Jinggangshan that the most precious wealth left to us during the Jinggangshan period is the Jinggangshan spirit that transcends time and space. Today, we must combine the new conditions of the times, adhere to the firm and persistent pursuit of ideals, seek truth from facts and break new paths, work hard to overcome difficulties, and rely on the masses to seek victory, so that the Jinggangshan spirit can shine with the light of the times.
Revisiting the oath of joining the party. All pictures in this article are Zhou Yonggan Picture
"Promote the spirit of Jinggangshan, uphold the will of the martyrs, be a good successor of the red, and always be a loyal guardian of the party and the people..." Recently, in the Jinggangshan Revolutionary Martyrs Cemetery, officers and soldiers of the Jinggangshan Squadron of the Ji'an Detachment of the Armed Police Jiangxi Corps took a solemn oath in the face of the bright red party flag.
This unit stationed in Red Jinggangshan was established in July 1959 and is mainly responsible for guarding and handling emergencies and temporary guard tasks.
"For decades, especially in recent years, the squadron has insisted on using the towering 500-mile Jinggangshan as a classroom, rooting the red gene in the blood of the army, using Xi Jinping's thoughts to strengthen the army to forge the soul, and using the spirit of Jinggangshan to educate people, the construction of the squadron has achieved comprehensive and gratifying results." Recently, He Zhijian, political commissar of the Ji'an Detachment of the Jiangxi Corps of the Armed Police, said in an introduction to the "Red Successor, New People of the Times" online new media theme interview team of the Armed Police Force.
"At that time, there were less than 800 teams going to Jinggangshan. The most fundamental reason why the sparks could burn across the country was that it was because of the 'revolutionary ideals higher than the sky'." Zhang Liqiang, director of the Political Work Department of the Jiangxi Corps of the Armed Police, told the reporter of The Paper (www.thepaper.cn) that in the face of this unique and precious wealth, one group of officers and soldiers of the Jinggangshan Squadron insisted on practicing strengthening the army, always strengthened the red belief of obeying the party's command, inherited the pioneering and enterprising Red Army spirit, carried forward the style of the Red Army of work, maintained the true nature of the Red Army of sincerity, and achieved extraordinary achievements in ordinary positions, becoming a model of "inheriting the red gene and being a good successor of the Red Army." Since its establishment, this model army has won the collective first-class merits once, second-class merits three times, and third-class merits 13 times. It has been rated as the "Advanced (Model) Squadron of Grassroots Construction" for 28 consecutive years. The party branch has been commended as "National Advanced Grassroots Party Organization", "Advanced Grassroots Party Organization of the entire army" and "Model Party Branch", and was awarded the "Jinggangshan Model Squadron of Love for the People" by the State Council and the Central Military Commission, and was awarded the honorary title of "Jinggangshan Model Squadron" by the Armed Police Force...
"Three Treasures of New and Old"
Jinggangshan was once a revolutionary mountain and a battle mountain. On this red land, the blood of countless proletarian revolutionary martyrs is soaked.
90 years ago, the Chinese Communists represented by Mao Zedong and Zhu De created the first rural revolutionary base here, carried out the arduous Jinggangshan struggle, and opened up a revolutionary path with Chinese characteristics.
Jinggangshan struggle also nurtured the great Jinggangshan spirit. The Red Army song sang: "Red rice, pumpkin soup, autumn eggplant, delicious and full of food." This is a true portrayal of the life of the Red Army back then. During the Jinggangshan struggle, Mao Zedong took the lead in eating wild vegetables, and Zhu De and the soldiers carried firewood and rice together... From leaders to soldiers, it was precisely because of the spirit of hard struggle to overcome difficulties that they had survived those difficult years and continuously consolidated and expanded the revolutionary base.
"In recent years, affected by bad social thoughts, some newly enlisted soldiers have begun to compete with each other for consumption." Recently, Zheng Hao, a member of the National People's Congress and instructor of Jinggangshan Squadron, said in an interview with a reporter from The Paper that there was a Guangdong soldier from a wealthy family in the squadron. When he first left the team, he spent more than 300 yuan to buy snacks and bought valuable clothes. At that time, someone made a good criticism of the soldier who spent money with big hands, but the soldier retorted, "It has been more than 30 years of reform and opening up, and it is conservative to talk about hard work. It doesn't matter if you eat well and wear it well, why do you need to live a life of a 'ascetic monk'?"
The era is developing. Is the tradition of continuing to advocate hard work out of date? In response to the sound that appeared in the team, Zheng Hao further introduced that at that time, the squadron organized officers and soldiers to re-take the Red Army's grain-carrying path, and discussed "Why Chairman Mao saved a wick, what did Zhu De pick up the grain himself, and what we learned from the revolutionary ancestors."
Later, in the squadron honor room, facing the "three treasures" of sewing machines, shoe repair machines, and haircuts handed down by the older generation of officers and soldiers, the recruit was standing for a long time, but he couldn't calm down for a long time. He said: "No matter how high or low the family's income is, no matter how wealthy we are, we should maintain a good style of hard work."
"Hard struggle is the heirloom of our party and army, and we cannot be lost at any time." Zheng Hao said that today we advocate hard work and overcome difficulties, not requiring a hard life, but continuing to maintain the fine style of hard work and simplicity and frugality during the Jinggangshan struggle period, the noble sentiment of integrity, self-discipline, self-discipline, and self-dedication, and the mental state of being particularly able to endure hardships and fighting, so that hard work becomes the consistent and never faded spiritual background of the squadron.
Inspirational Porcelain Preface Speaking
"With the development of the times, the 'three treasures' of the past have been collected in the window of the squadron's honor room. However, in order to promote the spirit of hard work, Jinggangshan Squadron has formed the squadron's "three treasures" of the new era, namely the Inspirational Porcelain, the Meeting Bridge and the Floor Sequester Garden." Zheng Hao said.
"Fengshou Garden" is a new example of the squadron cultivating officers and soldiers to uphold the spirit of hard struggle and to strengthen the will of officers and soldiers. In early 2016, since the original vegetable field in the squadron camp was converted into a tactical training ground, the officers and soldiers of the squadron were thinking about opening another vegetable garden. After repeated investigations, only a bamboo forest with rocks under the valley of the back mountain in the camp is more suitable.
So the officers and soldiers of the squadron used their spare time to fight for half a year, cutting down shrubs, digging tree roots, opening canals, and cutting down fields. They relied on their hands to reclaim a 2,400 square meters of stone wasteland in the back mountain into terraced vegetable fields. The soldiers named the vegetable garden "Fengshou Garden", built a "grain-picking trail", and named each vegetable field with the Jinggangshan Red Story, such as the vegetable field of "Bajiaolou District" and the vegetable field of "Huangyangjie District".
"These creativity was formed by collective discussions between the officers and soldiers of the squadron, in order to turn the 'Shouyuan' vegetable field into a vivid classroom for arduous struggle education, so that it can become one of the carriers for carrying forward the spirit of hard struggle in Jinggangshan, and let the spirit of Jinggangshan be passed down from generation to generation." Zheng Hao told the Pengpai News reporter.
The red gene cannot be lost
Jinggangshan is a "revolutionary museum without walls" and "red classroom". The red gene is the most distinctive background color of Jinggangshan Squadron. Over the past few decades, a group of officers and soldiers of Jinggangshan Squadron have been constantly forging loyalty and faithfulness, cultivating excellent work styles and image, and making the Jinggangshan spirit shine brightly in the great journey of strengthening the army.
Armed Police Officers and Soldiers received red culture education
"The squadron has always insisted on implanting the red gene into the blood of officers and soldiers. With the five hundred miles of Jinggang as a classroom, vigorously carried out the practical activities of 'learning military history, singing red songs, and speaking traditions'. He often invited historical and archaeologists to talk about traditions, organize local teachings to remember the martyrs, listen to combat stories to encourage morale, so that officers and soldiers will not forget the purpose of the People's Army, do not forget the fine traditions of Jinggangshan, and do not forget that they are the soldiers of Jinggangshan, so that the spirit of Jinggangshan will be passed down from generation to generation." When talking about the work done in the inheritance of the red gene, Zheng Hao said endlessly. Lu Deyun, a soldier in the
squadron, worked before joining the army and liked to play online games and watch Korean dramas.When he first joined the army, he used the "little abacus" to go home to find a job after being a soldier for two years, and lived with his fingers. "How valuable is standing guard and how great is it to work?" He said: "Life outside is free and income is more considerable." There are many soldiers like Lu Deyun. In the minds of these soldiers born in the 1990s, the answers to "What do you want to be a soldier?" are varied.
"Only by integrating personal pursuits into the cause of the Party and the people can we help officers and soldiers truly firmly recognize and choose the core values of contemporary revolutionary soldiers ideologically, theoretically and emotionally." The Party Branch of Jinggangshan Squadron held high the torch of ideals and beliefs, vigorously carried out the practical activities of "learning military history, singing red songs, and talking about traditions", inviting the descendants of the old Red Army to talk about revolutionary traditions, and guide officers and soldiers to conduct mass discussions on "how to be a good successor to the Jinggangshan Red Army." After the soldiers of
squadron arrived at Jinggangshan Squadron, the first meal he ate was red rice and pumpkin soup. The first class he took was a revolutionary tradition report made by descendants of the Red Army. The first song he learned to sing was a ballad of the Red Army. The first gift he received was "Stories of the Revolutionary Struggle in Jinggangshan" and "Xi Jinping on Strengthening the Army and Promoting the Army". The first time he went out was to pay homage to the Jinggangshan Revolutionary Museum and the Revolutionary Martyrs Cemetery.
Armed Police Officers and Soldiers visited the Jinggangshan Martyrs Revolution Memorial Hall
Lu Deyun visited the Revolutionary Martyrs Cemetery for the first time, and when he heard that more than 48,000 martyrs had been sacrificed in the two years and four months of struggle in Jinggangshan, more than 30,000 of whom did not even have their names and portraits left behind, he was greatly shocked and his soul was baptized. At that time, he blurted out: "The Red Army was the real star back then!"
Later, Lu Deyun not only became a die-hard fan of the Red Army, but also gloriously joined the party organization. During holidays, he often goes to the scenic spot to tell red stories to tourists and becomes a star tour guide on Jinggangshan. There are many warriors like Lu Deyun who have received spiritual baptism.
"No matter how the times change, the tradition of the old Red Army can never be lost..." Zheng Hao said, "We firmly listen to the party and follow the party, be good soldiers of President Xi, and set up a good look of 'revolutionary soldiers in the new era'."
from difficulty to strict practical training
The times are changing, the environment is changing, and ideas and development concepts must also change. The squadron not only always adheres to the red background, but also does not avoid problems in actual combat training and strictly implements practical training.
"Jinggangshan Squadron was defeated!" In 2016, news came from an emergency squad competition organized by the Ji'an Detachment. At the beginning, the squadron won the first place in several subjects such as 5 kilometers, fast accuracy identification (night) shooting, and climbing. Just when everyone thought that medals were within their reach, the 400-meter obstacles and anti-terrorism tactics subjects that were highly anticipated failed one after another. A man fell and injured when he passed through an obstacle, and his tactics were not close to actual combat, and he eventually suffered a "Waterloo".
In response to the reality of the failure of the competition, Jinggangshan Squadron faced the problem without avoiding it, and digging deep into the root cause without concealing it. At the reflective summary meeting, the superior authorities mercilessly criticized the squadron for still relying on "small contributions", sticking to old experiences, and following the old methods, and being able to be led by the opponent.
cannot win the battlefield, everything is equal to zero. After the defeat of the competition, the squadron widely conducted a large-scale discussion on the standards of mass combat effectiveness, from squadron cadres to ordinary soldiers, everyone focused on ideas, training and style, and deeply investigated deep-seated contradictions that affected the construction of combat effectiveness. The big discussion was like a pair of "sobering agents", which aroused the bloody spirit of officers and soldiers who dared to win battles. "This is a thorough ideological cleaning of peace and a major ideological mobilization focusing on wars," said Zhou Changwu, the captain of Jinggangshan Squadron at the time. "Only by calibrating the coordinates of winning, can the combat effectiveness standards be truly established and settled."
Special forces members conduct physical training
learn from one mistake and gain wisdom. The squadron actively adapts to the needs of the situation and tasks, actively seeks innovation and change, and conducts practical training strictly from difficulties. They used the stories of revolutionary battles such as the Huangyangjie Defense War, the New City Raid, and the Three-Defense Against Yongxin to inspire the officers and soldiers, and pulled the troops to Jinggangshan to practice physical fitness, drill into the woods to practice tactics, and lead them into the bamboo forest to practice coordination.Each season, members of the emergency squad will be assigned to participate in the Devil Week training and invited the top special forces of the detachment to enter the squadron to discuss anti-terrorism operations.
"Squadron 1 leader Xiao Sheng also took the initiative to contact Jinggangshan Patriot Club to come to the squadron to carry out a live CS confrontation, and improve the training level of the troops in real anti-epidemic training." Zheng Hao said that in 2017, the squadron played a beautiful turnaround battle and won the medal for the first place in the competition. In recent years, the squadron has always ranked among the top in various military competitions and assessments, and 8 officers and soldiers have been commended by their superiors as "model coaches" and "excellent coaches".
In addition, in recent years, the squadron has also established modern duty facilities with the transformation of combat effectiveness generation mode as the main line. In response to more than 60 situations that may occur during duty, they have formulated more than a dozen emergency plans. We adopt situation induction, simulation and other methods to study tactics one by one.
In recent years, with its strong combat effectiveness and informatization construction, the squadron has participated in the rounding up criminals more than 10 times, arrested more than 20 criminals of all kinds, successfully completed more than 80 major temporary services, and has been on duty for 59 consecutive years to achieve safety and accident-freeness.
The cutest person in the new era
In the new era, the officers and soldiers of the squadron kept their mission in mind and practiced the original intention of "guarding Jinggangshan and being a good successor of the Red Army" with their youth and passion.
Armed police officers and soldiers visited poor households to help poor households
"Look for armed police if you have difficulties." In Jinggangshan, when the masses encounter difficulties, the first thing they think of is to find armed police soldiers. On April 12, 2014, the 5th China Jinggangshan International Rhododendron Festival opened. A car fell due to mechanical failure in the Bijiashan Scenic Area, killing one person and injuring four people. 219 tourists were stranded in the car and more than 1,000 tourists were trapped on the mountain. After the
accident, the squadron officers and soldiers rushed to the scene immediately. The mountains are high and dense forests are dense, and the mountain roads are surrounded by bottomless cliffs. The soldiers tied their bodies together with ropes and pulled the ropes up one by one. Some of them cut their arms, some wrinkled their soles, rescued four injured tourists and transported 29 elderly people, pregnant women and children down the mountain safely.
Recalling the rescue scene back then, the injured tourist Liang Qiuchao clearly remembered that a childish soldier pierced the steel nails directly into his hand in order to lift the steel plate pressed on her leg. "They are worthy of being the successors of the Red Army," Liang Qiuchao said. "Really, I am particularly grateful to them. It was the armed police soldiers who saved my life."
In 2016, the old bridge of Taihe Bridge in Taihe County collapsed, causing 5 people to be injured, 3 people lost contact, and many engineering vehicles fell from the bridge. The officers and soldiers of the squadron rushed to rescue urgently. During the three-day and two-night rescue, they fought against the high temperature and the scorching heat, and carried out search and rescue day and night. The requirements of "promoting the spirit of Jinggang and striving to be a good soldier of President Xi" were put into concrete actions, demonstrating the tenacious fighting style and strong ideological quality of the "Jinggang Guard" and were fully recognized and highly praised by the local government and the people.
"On the road to poverty alleviation, we cannot leave a poor family or a poor person." With the full launch of the national "targeted poverty alleviation" process, the Party branch of the squadron actively responded to President Xi Jinping's call on the poverty alleviation troops to be at the forefront, took the initiative to pair up with 9 villagers in Huangao Village, Huangao Township and 7 villagers in Koqianshan Village, Xiaping Town, and invested more than 80,000 yuan to help purchase poultry breeding and fruit seedling planting, and coordinated the assistance targets to work in the city.
The army loves the people, the people support the army, and the army and the people unite as one family. Every year, on the day the veterans of the squadron left the army, people from all over the country came spontaneously to both sides of the Red Army Road in front of the squadron to see off the retired soldiers.
In recent years, the squadron has actively participated in the construction of local economic, ecological and spiritual civilization, carried out the "big hand holding small hands" and "warm into the family" poverty alleviation and education activities, voluntarily cared for 15 people with widows and disabled people, funded 10 poor students, donated 60,000 ml of blood voluntarily, and participated in the labor force to help the people more than 80 times. The local people exclaimed from the heart, "In the armed police officers and soldiers of Jinggangshan, we saw the shadow of the Red Army back then. They are the cutest people in the new era!"
