"Highly and proudly, crossing Yalu River . Protect peace, protecting the motherland, is protecting the hometown..." The familiar music 72 years ago is still exciting today. 72 years ago, the Chinese People's Volunteer Army, shouldering the trust of the people and the expectations of the nation, held high the banner of justice to defend peace and resist aggression, and together with the Korean people and the army, after two years and nine months of arduous and bloody battles, it won the great victory in the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea. The reporter learned from the Qingdao Revolutionary Martyrs Memorial Hall that there are 2,176 martyrs in Qingdao now counting 2,176 people. October 25 this year marks the 72nd anniversary of the Chinese People's Volunteer Army's going abroad to fight against the United States and aid Korea. In recent days, reporters from the Morning Post interviewed the old heroes of the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea and the families of heroes, visited the Martyrs Memorial Hall, listened to the stories of heroes, and relived the years of war.
Banmen Store was attacked and he used his life to protect peace
Qingdao-born Volunteer soldier Yao Qingxiang died heroically to guard the armistice negotiations during patrol in the JINZ.
Old man Yao Qingzhuo introduced the deeds of martyr Yao Qingxiang.
On October 21, the reporter came to the south side of Yaojiazhuang Village, Aoshanwei Street, Jimo District, where the memorial hall of Martyrs Yao Qingxiang is located. The bust of martyr Yao Qingxiang is placed in the center of the main hall of the memorial hall. The exhibition board contains the life story of the martyr, and also contains elegiac couplets written by people from all walks of life, including former Minister of Foreign Affairs Qiao Guanhua. For decades, Yao Qingxiang's third father and cousin have told the deeds of heroes here, and the three generations of Yao Guopan, Yao Qingsheng and Yao Fagao have relayed to manage and guard the memorial hall. Many young people in the village signed up for the army due to the deeds of heroes.
6 joined the anti-Japanese team
On the morning of the same day, the reporter met martyr Yao Qingxiang's cousin Yao Qingxiang's cousin Yao Qingzhuo and Yao Fagao, the memorial hall administrator, at the Yao Qingxiang Memorial Hall. Yao Qingzhuo, 87, told reporters: "My father and brothers are three. Yao Qingxiang's father is the eldest, and my father is the third. In other words, Yao Qingxiang is my second cousin, and I am 7 years younger than him. If he is still alive, he should be 94 years old this year."
Yao Qingzhuo took out a roll of paper from his pocket, which was written by Yao Qingxiang's heroic deeds written by him: "Originally, my father explained in the museum, and later I explained. Although it has been more than 10 years, for some time, I am worried that it is wrong, so I still have to take a look."
Through Yao Qingzhuo's narration, the reporter roughly learned about the life of the martyr Yao Qingxiang. "My second cousin was born on February 19, 1929. My family lives on the mountain on the north side of the village, and my second cousin's family lives in the south of the village. When we were a child, both of our families were poor, and he even let people go of cows. My second cousin worked quickly since he was a child. When he was a child, others' baskets were not filled, and he had already finished cutting. He has liked to make friends since he was a child, and there are always a group of friends around him. Now some people in the village who played with him back then recalled that he was loyal and honest." Yao Qingzhuo said that when Yao Qingxiang was 10 years old, his father died of illness. At the age of 12, he followed his mother and brother and sister-in-law to flee to the northeast.
Yao Fagao's father Yao Qingsheng was a Chinese teacher at Jimo No. 2 Middle School. He once specially collected the deeds of martyrs Yao Qingxiang and wrote a book "Biography of Martyrs Yao Qingxiang". The book describes the experience of Yao Qingxiang's family breaking through Guandong: In the spring of 1941, Yao Qingxiang's family arrived in Helong County, Jilin Province and made a living by digging coal from coal wells. Because the wages are too low, the family cannot be maintained. In 1942, they wandered to Fuxin, Liaoning Province again, and made a living by digging coal. The Japanese devils' mines are the same, and they have a heavy living and have little money, making it difficult to make a living. In 1943, the family arrived in Fushun again. At that time, Yao Qingxiang was just 14 years old. He followed the old countryman in Jimo and went to coal-welling wells to build sheds and do carpentry work. Because he is small, he is extremely laborious to do work. If he is a little lazy, he will be kicked and beaten and whipped.
Yao Qingzhuo said that it was in the coal mine that his second cousin met an underground member of the Communist Party of China. This Communist Party member often uses his spare time to publicize the principles of fighting against Japan and saving the country, calling on workers to unite and drive the Japanese invaders out of China.After hearing this, Yao Qingxiang was excited and secretly decided to join the anti-Japanese team.
One day in July 1945, Yao Qingxiang went home and said goodbye to his mother: "I want to be the Eighth Route Army, don't look for me." In this way, with the help of the underground party organization of the coal mine, 16-year-old Yao Qingxiang joined the anti-Japanese team. Eight days later, he went home with the company commander and met his mother and soon left again. Unexpectedly, this trip would turn into a forever farewell.
is responsible for Banmen Store vigilance work
In October 1950, US imperialism burned the war to the Yalu River, and the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China issued a call to "resist the U.S. and aid Korea, defend the country." Yao Qingxiang, who has been in for 5 years, took the initiative to write a letter of request for battle, signed up for the Chinese People's Volunteer Army, and was incorporated into a reconnaissance battalion. Not long after, he followed the troops across the Yalu River and rushed to North Korea.
On the Korean battlefield, Yao Qingxiang always charged forward and bravely killed the enemy. During the battle, he led the soldiers to help the Korean people rebuild their homes destroyed by the enemy and forged a deep friendship with the Korean people. He was promoted to platoon leader due to his outstanding performance.
In July 1951, during the Korean War ceasefire negotiations, Yao Qingxiang was ordered to be transferred to the platoon leader of the military police in the Kaicheng Zhongli District, North Korea, and served as a guard patrol mission in the Panmundian area, implementing the provisions of the peace negotiation agreement on the neutral zone, and safeguarding the safety of the neutral zone and representatives of all parties.
There are 3 squads led by Yao Qingxiang, stationed in Panmundian, Songgudong and Bensongri. These places are neutral areas determined by the liaison officers of the negotiation parties at the meeting. They act as a warning within this range.
Sacrifice your life to protect peace
1951 On the evening of August 18, 1951, lightning and lightning were rising in the sky, and heavy rain started. The more severe the weather is, the more we need to prevent the enemy from sabotaging the enemy. Yao Qingxiang led a squad and patrolled the Panmunjom in the heavy rain. He told the soldiers: "The situation has become more tense these days. The enemy wants to find excuses to disrupt the armistice negotiations. The superiors instructed us to be vigilant."
In the middle of the night that day, Yao Qingxiang reported to the company from Panmundian to Gaotoushan. At this moment, the US Li Jun sent more than 30 armed personnel, led by captain Jin Changzhi, to violate the negotiation agreement, sneak into the neutral area, and sneaked into the hills near Baihe Cave from the southeast of Panmunjom to hide. The purpose of their trip was to wait for an opportunity to kill volunteer soldiers to create trouble.
When the day was almost dawn the next day, Yao Qingxiang led several soldiers out of the company and prepared to return to Songgu Cave. Suddenly a gunshot came, and a bullet passed by them. Yao Qingxiang quickly led people to surround the gunshots, and at the same time told the soldiers: "This is a neutral area, you cannot shoot casually. If you want to fight, you must wait for the enemy to enter the trustworthy area and capture the enemy alive so that the enemy cannot deny it in the face of facts. Otherwise, the enemy will spread rumors and make excuses." Then, he ordered the 9th squad leader to control the high ground on the right to prevent the enemy from detouring from the right. At this time, the soldier Wang Renyuan shouted, "Platform leader, there is an enemy under the tree on the high ground on the right!" Before Wang Renyuan's shouting fell, dense bullets shot from the left, Yao Qingxiang was shot and fell on the slope, and Wang Renyuan was also injured.
A soldier hurriedly ran to Yao Qingxiang and wanted to help him up. He said firmly, "Don't worry about me, go and notify the troops." He ordered the Ninth squad leader to immediately meet with the patrol team led by the deputy platoon leader. After the ninth squad leader left, the enemy surrounded Yao Qingxiang. Yao Qingxiang stood up tenaciously and fought with the enemy. He fell down an enemy and fell down himself. At this time, the company commander and instructor arrived with the patrol team. Seeing that the situation was not good, the enemy special team captain Jin Changzhi fired twice at Yao Qingxiang's head, snatched his pistol, coat and shoes, and fled in a hurry.
That's it, Yao Qingxiang sacrificed his young life to defend peace.
Heroic deeds moved the elders of my hometown
Because Yao Qingxiang's elder brother and mother had passed away one after another, in September 1951, his third father Yao Guoqiu, as a martyr, received a certificate of sacrifice from Yao Qingxiang for his revolutionary soldier. This proof has been preserved by Yao Qingzhuo to this day.
"After learning about the death of my second cousin in North Korea, my family was very sad. My father couldn't eat for a long time.After my second cousin went to the Northeast to explore, he never came back. Because the family is too poor, they don't even leave a photo. "Yao Qingzhuo recalled the past, his face was full of grief.
On October 25, 1951, the Dong County People's Government held a 10,000-person meeting in Yaojiazhuang to mourn martyrs Yao Qingxiang. "The memorial service was held in Hetao, northeast of our village. My parents attended the meeting as martyrs. That day, they cried so hard that their throats were hoarse. "Yao Qingzhuo said. After the meeting, many young people were infected by Yao Qingxiang's heroic deeds and signed up for the army. The 18-year-old Yao Faxue was one of them. After joining the army, he became a communications soldier and followed the troops to fight in Korea. Villager Yao Fadi joined the army in 1970. He took heroes as a model and strictly demanded himself. After retiring in 1975, he worked diligently for the villagers for 25 years. At that time, there were 10 households in Yaojiazhuang, 4 military martyrs. 5. After Yao Qingxiang's death, the whole village revised the patriotic convention and the contract to assist the military martyrs' families in the workplace. Through changing jobs, helping workers, farming on behalf of others, and mutual assistance, the arable land of military martyrs' families was not accidentally harvested and yielded.
"When I heard that the Yao Qingxiang Martyrs' Memorial Temple was going to be built, the villagers took the initiative to demolish 5 private houses, village collective schools, and an old ancestral hall and 7 offices of the village committee, widening the road, which was originally only one and a half meters, to 10 meters. The cooperative to which the village belongs was renamed Yao Qingxiang Communist Agricultural Production Cooperative, and a school was named after him. "Yao Qingzhuo said.
In 1980, the Qingdao Municipal Government expanded the memorial hall and renamed it "Yao Qingxiang Martyrs Memorial Hall". On August 18, 1997, the statue of martyrs Yao Qingxiang was completed. In 1999, the Ministry of Civil Affairs named Yao Qingxiang a famous martyr in China.
Fire-line rescue. The battlefield doctor was injured twice.
Zhao Yinqun was a member of the medical team on the battlefield of resisting U.S. aggression and aiding Korea. He once treated more than 70 wounded people in one day
Zhao Yinqun wrote his combat experience into a memoir.
The soldier was fearless, he braved the artillery fire to treat the wounded; the doctor was kind, and he often had his eyes red while saving people. After being wounded twice, he volunteered to return to the Korean battlefield. He was Zhao Yinqun, a battlefield doctor who resisted U.S. aggression and aid Korea. "I treated more than 70 wounded people a day at the most. "After 72 years, recalling the days and nights on the Korean battlefield, 90-year-old Zhao Yinqun said sadly that he had not had time to rescue more comrades, which was his lifelong regret.
A teenager studying medicine joined the army at the age of 15
In February 1932, Zhao Yinqun was born in a poor peasant family in Xia County, Shanxi Province. His father was an underground party member and died at a young age due to the persecution of the reactionaries. At that time, Zhao Yinqun secretly set his ambition: "We must join Communist Party of China to let the people live a good life! "
Zhao Yinqun told reporters that his journey of studying medicine started at the age of twelve or thirteen. At that time, he worked as a waiter for a Japanese doctor. "He helped him get some face wash water in the morning, foot wash water in the evening, and fill the thermos with boiling water in the afternoon. I was very idle the rest of the time. This doctor is very busy. I was idle and focused on watching him treat people with his medicine and change the medicine. Later he noticed that I was very interested in treating the disease, so he asked me, "Are you willing to study medicine?" ’I excitedly replied ‘Of course I do’. He began to teach me little by little. Later, this Japanese doctor returned to China and another Chinese doctor took over his job, but my apprenticeship continued. "
15 years old, Zhao Yinqun joined the army and joined the Xia County Independence Battalion. During the Liberation War, he was incorporated into the 186th Division of the 62nd Army of the 18th Corps of the North China Military Region and served as a health officer. Because of his superb medical skills, Zhao Yinqun became the deputy squad leader at the age of 18. People in several miles had heard of his medical skills.
Taiyuan Battle , Zhao Yinqun received a seriously injured squad leader. The wounded thigh artery bleeding, and the clothes that pressed the wound to stop bleeding had been completely soaked. Speaking of his experience at that time, Zhao Yinqun was quite proud: "I made a quick decision and used hemostatic forceps to clamp the wound. The wounded's blood sprayed my hand, but it finally stopped. I quickly sewed the wound with thread again. Later, the squad leader was sent to the famous Bethune Hospital for treatment. When the surgical director changed his dressing, he asked in surprise who treated the wound.After learning that he was a young health worker, the senior doctor repeatedly said 'Impossible' and asked in detail about the situation that day. After hearing this, he sighed: Many doctors who have been in the industry for many years do not have this type of hemostatic technology. You should thank this hygienist for his whole life, and he saved your life. This situation of blood vessel rupture will cause death to disappear one minute later and you will not be able to move slowly. This little brother is quick and accurate in his attacks. "
Rescued more than 70 wounded people in one day
" After the call to resist U.S. aggression and aid Korea was issued, troops came to recruit doctors with good medical skills and went to the battlefield to treat the wounded. Many people recommended me. "Zhao Yinqun told reporters that he embarked on his journey to North Korea. On the battlefield, as a member of the medical team, he traveled to various battlefields to treat the most critically injured.
"Architecture fire flew on the battlefield, and the volunteers suffered heavy casualties. The most important thing in treating wounded people is the word "fast". You have to be faster and faster to take back your life from the hands of the god of death. We seized the opportunity to quickly pull the wounded in the trench back, clamp the hemostatic forceps with a "slap", then apply medicine, and bandage it three or five times. The movement must be quick. "Zhao Yinqun said that he was unwilling to recall the scenes on the battlefield more often. The soldiers made great sacrifices to defend their country. "Sometimes the enemy's artillery fire is too dense, and we can't go out to rescue the wounded. We can only watch them die. The heartache cannot be described..." Zhao Yinqun wiped his tears, "At the most, I treated more than 70 wounded people a day. "
injured and returned to China and returned to the battlefield
knows the mission he shoulders. Zhao Yinqun ignored his personal safety and shuttled through the battlefield and made every effort to rescue the wounded. "I am mainly responsible for treating the seriously injured on the battlefield and dealing with the most critical situations. I often hear people shouting loudly: ‘Doctor Zhao, come here quickly, this comrade is not going to work! ’I ran over with all my might. After treating the seriously injured person, I would tie a red cloth strip on his wrist to indicate that the person was seriously injured. The cloth strips have four colors: red, yellow, black and white, indicating different degrees of injury. "
When rescuing the wounded, Zhao Yinqun's left neck was rubbed by a bullet, and the blood flowed continuously. Everyone was in trouble as they watched the blood flowing out. The wound was special and no one could handle it. The doctor who could stop bleeding was Zhao Yinqun, and he couldn't save himself. "Soon I fell into coma because of excessive blood loss shock and fell into a coma. When I woke up again, I was already lying on the hospital bed. I asked the patient next to me where this is, and the patient said it was Qiqihar . I was shocked and actually returned to China. "Zhao Yinqun said.
This time, Zhao Yinqun was rated as "third-class Class A disability". "I still remember the day when I was in a coma, my clothes were covered with the military medals issued by North Korea. I woke up but couldn't find it. I probably lost it during the transfer. I regretted it for a long time. "This is not the first time Zhao Yinqun was injured. The first time he suffered a minor injury, he returned to his post after only a few days of rest. This time, after recovering from his health, Zhao Yinqun volunteered to return to the Korean battlefield. "Go to the place where I need me the most! "Zhao Yinqun said to himself.
After returning to North Korea, the war entered the negotiation stage. There were fewer wars, but there were still many wounded people who needed treatment. Zhao Yinqun still used his superb medical skills and shuttled between the wounded, so busy that his feet were not touching the ground. "The injuries, coupled with overwork and severe frostbite, caused permanent damage to both arms, and now I can't stretch them straight. "Zhao Yinqun showed the reporter the arm that was still curved after being straightened.
Often treating and treating the masses
The battlefield brought Zhao Yinqun in addition to memories, there were also many valuable experiences. "Don't look at me when I was young, I was not afraid of fighting at all! "Zhao Yinqun talked about a breakthrough battle encountered during the Jinzhong Battle in 1948. "The troops received intelligence that the enemy was going to pass through the hospital behind us, and nearly 100 wounded people were not able to transfer. The political commissar ordered someone to take on the task of protecting the wounded. I volunteered to stand up and formulated a combat plan in a short period of time. We put the machine gun and grenade at the door. I mainly attacked and assisted by two comrades. ”
After more than ten minutes, the enemy came and the cavalry rushed in the front.Zhao Yinqun had an idea: "Fight their horses first. If the horse falls down, the person can't run away!" Then there were enemy soldiers riding motorcycles, and he changed his strategy: "Aim at people! If the enemy is killed, we can still use the car!" In this fierce battle, all the wounded were not damaged at all, so Zhao Yinqun was awarded the first-class merit of and joined the party gloriously after the battle.
Zhao Yinqun followed the troops to fight south and north, and participated in many battles such as the Taiyuan Battle and the Xining Battle. At the beginning of the founding of New China, Zhao Yinqun also participated in many bandit suppression battles. He not only treated his injured comrades, but also often treated local people for medical treatment and healing the wounded and helped the poor.
Once in a town in Guizhou, a Miao woman had a high fever due to a cold. "She lives in two broken thatched huts with her three children. The roof can see the sky and the walls can see the ground and the mountains. After curing her cold, several soldiers from the company and I went up the mountain to find straw and wood, and raised some money to help her repair the house in two days. The Miao woman could not speak Chinese. When we left, she knelt down to see us off. We walked a hundred meters away, but she had not yet gotten up." Zhao Yinqun recalled.
In 1953, Qingdao established the Naval Submarine School , and Zhao Yinqun was sent to Qingdao to work as a diving doctor. In 1965, he was transferred to the Beihai Fleet outpatient health department to work as the head of ophthalmology and dentistry. After retiring, Zhao Yinqun still wrote his memoir "The Years of War".
"I don't think I am a hero. Those comrades who never come back on the Korean battlefield are heroes. Every time I think of their bones not falling back, I can't help but cry. In September this year, the remains of the ninth batch of Chinese People's Volunteers in South Korea returned to China, and I was extremely excited. The motherland has never forgotten the soldiers who protected her, which reminded me of that song, "The Motherland Will Not Forgot". 'You don't need to know me, you don't need to know me, I integrate my youth into the rivers of the motherland; the mountains know me, the rivers know me, the motherland will not forget me, I will not forget me'..." Zhao Yinqun's eyes were filled with tears and sang emotionally...
Battlefield message Life and death are just between a "line"
As a telephone officer, Zhang Suowen, who is a telephone, spreads the war report in artillery fire, braved the artillery fire to convey the war report. He was also injured and disabled by his cousin 2
Zhang Shipeng reads his father's diary.
photos and some of his diary.
"Witnesses are all spring, and the Qingming Festival is coming. There is no place to wander, and I think of my old relatives." This is a poem written by Zhang Suwen, an old soldier who participated in the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, wrote in his diary. Zhang Suwen and his cousin Zhang Suewen joined the army together, and then rushed to the front line of resisting U.S. aggression and aiding Korea. What is regrettable is that Zhang Suopin stayed on the Korean battlefield forever, while Zhang Suowen fell disabled with his right foot. Recently, Zhang Shipeng, a resident of Shinan District, called the morning newspaper hotline 82888000 to tell the story of his father Zhang Suwen and his uncle, and proposed to find a gift from the commemorative Budou of the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea.
Two brothers went to the battlefield together
"My father was born in 1931 and joined the army with his uncle in 1949. The two brothers participated in the battles of Mashan, Tieqi Mountain and Danshan in Qingdao." Zhang Suwen's eldest son Zhang Shipeng looked at his father's portrait and fell into memories, "When his father received the order to gather for battle in Korea, he was stationed in the south with the troops. The team quickly rushed to Yanzhou, Shandong, where the gathering place was. Although it was late autumn, the weather in the south was very warm, and everyone was wearing short-sleeved or single clothes. After arriving in Shandong, the temperature of more than ten degrees Celsius made the thin-clothed soldiers uncomfortable. The conditions were very difficult at that time, and the cotton coats issued by the troops were only enough for one-third of the soldiers to wear. Many soldiers stood up and entered North Korea. "At that time, the outdoor temperature in Changjin Lake area of North Korea had dropped to minus 40 degrees Celsius.
70-year-old Zhang Shipeng sighed. His father often said that in order to avoid the reconnaissance of enemy planes, the team often had to crawl in the snow. He lay down for more than an hour, and some soldiers could never stand up again.
"After entering North Korea, my father and uncle served as telephone and radio operators of the Corps respectively, supporting each other in the midst of the war." Zhang Shipeng said. From November to December 1950, the Changjin Lake Battle broke out.With the will of steel, the Volunteer Army overcame various difficulties and finally achieved strategic victory, destroying the 31st Regiment of the 7th Infantry Division, which is the famous "Polar Bear Regiment". For this victory, countless volunteer soldiers died in foreign lands, including Zhang Shipeng's uncle Zhang Suopeng.
Adventure to pass on military information and war reports
Zhang Shipeng said, "According to his father, on December 16, 1950, while pursuing the enemy, his uncle was hit in the abdomen by shells and shrapnel." Zhang Suowen often mentioned the scene of his cousin's death beside him. "Father said that my uncle was lying there, blood flowing, and his stomach was blown out by the US military shells, and his internal organs flowed out. My father couldn't bear to see it, so he took off his clothes and covered his uncle's body. At that time, the artillery fire was flying, and he could not take his uncle's body away, so he could only evacuate the pain." Zhang Shipeng told reporters that when his father recalled the scene that year, tears blurred his eyes. He could not see the road ahead at all, and just ran with his comrades. Since then, this scene has always appeared in my father's mind and even in his dreams. What else is more sad than sacrificing relatives to their side? Speaking of this, Zhang Shipeng's tears couldn't stop flowing.
Zhang Suowen was also injured after three days of death, and his right foot and toes were blown up, losing his combat ability. He was eventually rated as a third-class A disability and returned to China for recuperation in early 1951.
"My father is a telephone operator, which is very important on the battlefield. At that time, our army's radio walkie-talk was relatively backward, and signal interruptions were often encountered. Using wired telephone is more reliable. As a telephone operator, first of all, you must carry a telephone cable with you to ensure that the battle reports ahead are delivered in time. Every time you arrive at a location, the telephone operator must take the lead in setting up the wire, and then withdraw the wire after a while. Sometimes the signal is not good, and the line has to be repeatedly tried. The telephone operator walks 10 kilometers more than other soldiers every day, and after collecting the telephone cable, you must follow the troops immediately. The US military shelled every day and night, and the telephone operator was often blown off. Every time the telephone operator risked his life to connect. It can be said that every message transmitted on the battlefield was exchanged for the telephone operator with his life. My father was injured by the right foot during the connection process." Zhang Shipeng told reporters.
diligent, study and writing
In January 1951, Zhang Suowen returned to the 26th Army Hospital of the Northeast Military Region to recuperate. During this period, he was awarded the second-class merit of .
"My sister found this military merit certificate in an iron box when she packed up her father's belongings." Zhang Shipeng showed reporters a certificate of meritorious service, which reads "Work well, help nurses get water and food during rest; study well, in addition to studying by themselves, she also patiently helps others study. Every day, the newspaper comes and reads the newspaper to everyone; write articles frequently, praise good nurses or comrades in recuperation, so that the comrades' emotions are high; help the people paint walls." It is these small but warm things that make Zhang Suowen a person that everyone loves and respects.
"After the recuperation, my father began to learn cultural knowledge again, and a few years later he focused on professional technology. During those years, my father never stopped writing diaries." Zhang Shipeng moved out more than 20 diary books and told reporters that this was only part of it. Because of the relocation, many diary books were still left in the original house.
Most of the diaries were written between 1952 and 1979. The handwriting was vigorous and powerful and quite elegant. After reading these diaries, the reporter found that Zhang Suowen was good at thinking, diligent and self-supporting, had a strong desire for knowledge, and had rich and delicate emotions. In his diary, he recorded in detail what he thoughts, his learning, scientific research process and his observation of his own heart. He is good at asking questions and summarizing, and has discussed many questions in depth. There are many short poems in the diary that express his mood and mood at different times. These diaries alone have written hundreds of thousands of words together. "We have always kept these diaries properly and took them out and read them from time to time. Every time we read them, we have a greater respect for our father. The war has sublimated my father's thoughts again and again, and these noble thoughts have inspired our brother and sister to live positively and optimistically," said Zhang Shipeng.
Have love in your heart and be helpful
" Being helpful is the most obvious quality of a father.Because he mastered solid communication knowledge and professional skills in the army, his father was proficient in repairing various electrical appliances, especially televisions, radios, etc. If someone’s electrical appliances in the village are broken, my father will come to help repair them. At that time, everyone was not rich and needed to replace parts, he never wanted others to buy them, but he helped him find them to replace them. He asked someone to buy some rare accessories, but when he sent them to his neighbor's house, he did not mention the difficulty of purchasing or the amount of money he spent. You know, he is extremely frugal in his daily life. "Zhang Shipeng remembered all these details in his heart and made up his mind to be the one who has love in his heart like his father. "These spiritual wealth is the most precious wealth left to us by his father. "Zhang Shipeng said.
Zhang Suwen died of illness in 2004. Zhang Shipeng's uncle Zhang Suewen left home to join the army and broke off contact with his family. Zhang Suewen's daughter was born in September 1949 and was named Zhang Yuqiu. Zhang Yuqiu had never seen his father before and had a simple wish, just to see what his father looked like. Last March, Zhang Shipeng and his sister Zhang Yuying accidentally saw a retired police officer of the Shandong Provincial Public Security Department Lin Yuhui participating in a charity activity for portraits of martyrs on the Internet, so he went to Lin Yuhui Ask for help. Lin Yuhui showed the painted portrait to Zhang Yuqiu. Zhang Yuqiu, who was over 70, cried with his father in his arms. Zhang Shipeng said that in the future, they would go to the battlefield of the Changjin Lake Battle with his cousin Zhang Yuqiu to see his uncle Zhang hired to visit his grave.
Looking for the person who gave the cloth bag
Interview at the end, Zhang Shipeng showed the reporter a drawstring cloth bag that his father had treasured for many years.
"This seems to be a fried noodles bag. I remember my father said that during the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, every soldier brought the fried noodles made by the people in the rear, and some of them would be put in long bags and carried on their backs. Look at this cloth bag, one side is embroidered with a big red five-pointed star, and the other side is embroidered with four colorful words "Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea". The signature is "Feng's Gift" or " Feng Hua's Gift" Gift". This was given by the enthusiastic masses when my father returned from North Korea and was of great significance. We only remember that my father said it was given by a student at Beijing Normal University, and there was no other information. "Zhang Shipeng said that he hoped to find the gifter of this cloth pocket through Qingdao Morning Post : "We really want to meet him (her) and talk about the scene of welcoming the soldiers back to China at that time. ”
Citizens who know the relevant clues can call the morning newspaper hotline 82888000 to contact the reporter to help Zhang Shipeng and his sister fulfill this wish.

72 years ago, the heroic Chinese People's Volunteer Army shouldered the historical responsibility of defending the country, and set foot on the battlefield of resisting the United States and aiding Korea without hesitation, and fought arduous and bloody with the strong enemy. Fighting hard, defending national security and national dignity with blood and life. The young men at that time are now in their 80s. On the morning of October 21, a group of young people came to the home of Zhang Ping, an old hero of the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea. They are law enforcement officers at the Laoshan Work Station of Qingdao Coast Guard. They want to listen to the old man telling the story of that year and remember the great spirit of resisting U.S. aggression and aid Korea.
Zhang Ping is already 90 years old this year. In 1948, 16-year-old Zhang Ping joined the army and participated in the Huaihai Battle, Crossing the River Battle, and liberation Shanghai. In 1950, after the Korean War, Zhang Ping obeyed orders and resolutely devoted himself to the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea. In the battle, he was awarded the second-class merit once and the third-class merit once."At that time, the conditions were very difficult. We lived in dense forests and slept in the snow, ate fried noodles with snow water, and fought wits and courage with the enemy. But our soldiers relied on their tenacious will to repel the fierce offensive of the enemy. They were really the 'cutest people'..." Speaking of the scenes of fighting with the enemy on the battlefield, the old man's eyes were still sharp. The law enforcement officer sitting aside Wang Ziwei's eyes were filled with tears: he had more respect for the old hero in front of him, and he also had a deeper understanding of the spirit of resisting U.S. aggression and aiding Korea.
"Highly and proudly, crossing the Yalu River..." When passionate, Zhang Ping couldn't help singing the "Chinese People's Volunteer Army War Song" for the law enforcement officers. For a moment, the veteran's pride was fully revealed. Zhang Ping also showed law enforcement officers the commemorative medal of the "70th anniversary of the Chinese People's Volunteer Army's going abroad to fight against the United States and aid Korea". Military medals and old photos are witnesses of the bloody battles of countless revolutionary martyrs.
As we parted, the young law enforcement officers collectively expressed their highest respect to the old hero. Tian Wenzi, a law enforcement officer at Laoshan workstation, said that understanding heroes close and understanding them can help you feel the value of their spirits in person. Heroes are role models for everyone to learn from. Law enforcement officers must inherit and carry forward the revolutionary will of the martyrs, strive to improve their own law enforcement capabilities, and contribute their full strength to building a strong modern coast guard team.
