Time: xx, xx, 1962, autumn.
Location: Beijing Railway Station
Today is the day I leave my hometown. My heart is full of complex emotions. I will soon follow this green train to the southwestern border of the motherland to join the army. , and contribute my own strength to the tranquility of the motherland."
When I left, I was both scared and excited. What was scary was that this was the first time I left my family and familiar environment, and was about to face Regarding unknown challenges and difficulties. I am worried about whether I can adapt to the new life and whether I can handle the responsibilities brought by this military uniform. I am also afraid of leaving the care of my family and no longer have their company and support.
However, the excitement is even stronger. I know that this is my chance to become a real man and fight for the country. I will receive professional military training and strengthen my will and body with like-minded comrades. Together, we shoulder the important responsibility of safeguarding national security. This opportunity is a precious opportunity for me to grow into a brave and determined man. When I come back, I will impress them despite the uncertainty and difficulties. , but I am full of confidence and courage. I will work hard to progress and grow with the expectations and blessings of my family to repay their expectations. I will use my actions to bring glory to my hometown and my motherland, and to those who have sacrificed for this country. The martyrs who lost their lives continue to fight.
Of course, I hope that in the eyes of my parents, after I leave, I will no longer be the Li Xuewu who has nothing to do and hangs out on the streets, but will be above their heads, holding up the blue sky. Li Xuewu, a revolutionary soldier, no matter what challenges I face in the future, I must remember this goal and move forward bravely. I believe that I will grow into a stronger and more responsible person.
I hope my hometown will be better. The scenery will always remain in my memory. I hope my contribution can bring honor to their hometown.
I will miss you all the time.
"Pa"
The diary was closed by his owner and stuffed back into the bag under the seat. With the mood of a wanderer away from home, Li Xuewu looked greedily out the window at his hometown that was gradually fading away.
On the platform, it was not just Li Xuewu's family, no matter whether they were dignitaries or ordinary people, they all had one equal status at this time, the military family members.
Looking away. On the train, many mothers, who felt sorry for their children, had tears in their eyes, while the men straightened their spines and had red eyes, holding back their tears.
It turned out that the mother was just sobbing slightly. But when she heard the cries of other mothers, she also began to sob emotionally.
“Mom, it’s not like that, it’s just three years, next year, the year after, the year after that, I’ll be here. I'm back, don't cry, let's go back."
"It's all you. If he has to be a soldier, how can this child endure this hardship? And you, boss, he even has a driver's license. Now, you can't look for connections and drive a car for others. Now it's better. The person is gone and no one will cause trouble for you. Are you happy?"
Mother Li choked as she spoke, patting her husband's chest. She didn't know where the southwest was at first, and Li Xuewen only said it was diagonally opposite the capital. She didn't know until she found the map. , Where did the west go?
Knowing that the child was thousands of miles away from her, Mother Li regretted it, but the list was finalized until the child got in the car. Looking at his son through the window, he felt his heart aching.
Li Xuewen shrank his neck. This little troublemaker was gone. He felt secretly relieved and looked at his father. He probably wasn’t the only one in his family who had this idea.
“Mom, it was Xuewu who said he wanted to be a soldier, not me. It’s good to exercise, otherwise you would have to worry too much. , right, dad"
Li's father clearly understood his lover. At this time, although he was also a little sad, the most important thing at the moment was to deal with his wife's emotions quickly, otherwise he would have to deal with his wife's emotions tonight. I will probably get scolded again while lying on the bed.
"Okay, okay, everyone got in the car and left. This bastard works hard in the army. If he uses his brain on the topic, he will be better in a few days. In all likelihood, if you can work hard, it’s better to be fooling around here and get caught and sent to the artillery station one day."
"You two will team up to tease me. , I don’t believe that he can be selected without you having some connections.”
Wiping tears from the corners of her eyes, Mother Li said bitterly, how could she not know her son’s virtues? A frequent visitor to the police station, I met Mr. Emon over there, and they were very familiar with each other.
With that reputation, he was still selected. I am sure that the two father and son were obstructing it, otherwise, it would not be like playing football. , kicking from one side of the map to the other, this is not what it is called in the opera, exiled thousands of miles
Li Xuewen and his father looked at each other silently, and they really didn't find a relationship. , I just used a trick, holding a small booklet of my driver's license, and they passed it immediately. I was sent to the car before anyone was ready. I felt more anxious than the two of them.
< p>Looking for connections does not exist. At least Father Li's eyes gleamed when he saw the recruitment office. When he looked at his son, all the prepared excuses were useless. The driver's license was verified to be correct, and the big red stamp was stamped on it. He immediately knew which army he was going to. It seemed to be slightly different from what he had heard from before.On the clanging train
Li Xuewu didn’t know that his brother and father were on the train. Accepting the moral judgment of his mother.
I saw that it was about to be my turn to introduce myself, and my expression was a little uneasy.
The people around me were strange and distant, if not for someone else. Unable to hold back, I took the lead and boldly introduced myself loudly in the crowded carriage. I’m afraid there would be nothing to do next.
“My name is Wang Qiang. I come from the Heping People’s Commune. My ancestors were all poor farmers. After I turned over, my father was the secretary of the brigade and my mother was the commune broadcaster. I was still young and wanted to go to various parts of the motherland to see the great mountains and rivers. After graduating from junior high school,As a professional, I signed up, and I didn’t expect to be able to sit on the same train with everyone. I feel very lucky.”
Wang Qiang had a hint of excitement on his face, and the whole carriage looked at him quietly. Such a tall man A young man who is not tall and stocky, but has a hint of blush on his cheeks, but still speaks in a smooth manner, which seems to be partly inherited from his mother.
A group of young people said "Pa, Pa, Pa". After he finished speaking, everyone applauded, and some even waved their hats.
"That's good. I also want to visit other places, but the capital is too small to accommodate him. "Master"
"Coax, hahaha"
Listening to the joke, all the soldiers of the same age in the carriage laughed together, like an officer leading the team. Seeing this scene, they were grim There was also a smile on his face.
“My name is Yan Song. I am from Hongqi Commune. My parents are farmers. I am a soldier because I want to reduce the burden on my family. There are too many brothers and sisters, I want to eat enough."
The next person opposite Li Xuewu is a thin and frail young man who looks more introverted. Although his voice is much softer and very uncomfortable. Confident, but in an instant, the people around him were silent, and the smile just now disappeared unconsciously.
"Don't worry, go and eat with an open belly, I will definitely make you full"
p>
The words of the leading officer made these young people who had just emerged from society feel the warmth brought by the military family. Everyone continued to applaud, and the applause became even more enthusiastic. Li Xuewen looked at the opposite side and was a little moved. He was a soldier in the same year and took out the sesame cakes that his mother had stuffed into his luggage.
“Here, I’ll treat you to some. There won’t be enough food on the road. Tell me, I have a small appetite, so the extra is yours.”< /p>
"Thank you"
Yan Song on the opposite side was holding the sesame cake handed over by Li Xuewu with an indescribable expression and his lips pursed tightly. It seemed that the child had not eaten before getting in the car. He was full, or maybe he had walked too far, and the food in his stomach had already been exhausted. The scent of Jiaohu came to his nose, which moved this young man who was not yet underage to the point of being moved.
" He's his brother, we're all taking the same train at least, so let's eat quickly."
Pressing him back to his position, Li Xuewen turned around and looked at the people in the car, quietly using his right hand I clenched my fists and cheered myself up. After all, so many people’s eyes were focused on me, and I felt more nervous than when I was taking the driver’s license test.
“My name is Li Xuewu, and my home is in the south at the foot of Dongcheng Huangcheng. In Luoguxiang, those around the steel rolling mill may know me. My father is a doctor and my brother is in the security department of the steel rolling mill. I am a soldier to change myself, but I need a tense environment to push myself. I heard that I am a soldier. The army is a big melting pot. I threw myself into the melting pot just to turn myself into a pool of molten iron. When it comes out of the furnace, the iron can turn into steel."
"Young, the steel rolling mill is quite famous. Has that factory been opened yet? This driving school, I heard from my relatives, only recruits the children of employees in the factory. I originally wanted to learn it."
A high-pitched voice came out from nowhere, and it sounded like a man and a woman, Li Xue saidWu didn't know what the voice change period was, so he grinned and looked in the direction of the sound.
"Yes, I graduated from the driving school in the steel rolling mill. Thanks to my brother, I spent 168 yuan on tuition. I only got my driver's license two months ago. Take a look."
As he said that, Li Xuewu took out the driver's license he had brought with him from his pocket, held it tightly in his hand, and let the person who spoke over there take a look.
At his age, he got a driver's license issued by the state in his teens. In this carriage, he can be said to be unique. Everyone looked at the notebook with envy. No matter what kind of family he was, the boy I like industrial machinery like cars.
No matter how good the conditions at home are, the most I have done is sit on it and touch the steering wheel. People with certificates like these can actually go up and drive, which is different from them. Of course, some of them are surprised. The tuition is more than one hundred yuan.
Especially for Yan Song opposite Li Xuewu, more than 100 yuan, which is an astronomical amount for a family like his, just to exchange for a small notebook.
"Hey, you are that Li Xuewu. Keep your driver's license and use it to exchange for a driver's license in the army when you go somewhere. You need to push yourself in a stressful environment, right? Haha, it will be as you wish. "
The leading officer's eyes stayed on Li Xuewu longer than the others, but the smile behind him made Li Xuewu a little creepy.
Hearing what the other party said, Li Xuewu quickly took back the driver's license that had been passed elsewhere and was being viewed by others. This thing seemed to be quite important.
"Um, may I ask, chief, what's your surname?"
The clever Li Xuewu quickly took out the Evergrande cigarettes from his pocket and held them respectfully with his hands. Passed it over.
From this we can see the difference between children living in the city and those from the countryside. Most children from better-off families in the city at least do not have stage fright. Will squirm.
"Oh, little guy, you are quite a thief, this is our thunder"
A cadre who led the army with only 14 cents stood up nervously and prepared to introduce
p>
"My surname is Lei. I am a veteran. I cannot be a leader without being a leader. You cigarette, Xiao Shi, take it away from him. You will not be given cigarettes in the car. You will give them to him at the halfway station."
"You are very lucky. This train is not a stuffy truck. Back then, we were all airtight. Once the big iron door was closed, it was dark inside, and you had to be shut down even if you went to the toilet. People are watching, so if you have difficulties, just overcome them yourself."
"If you have problems, go to Battalion Commander Shi. He is your leader. You don't have to deliberately try to please me. I'm just along for the ride. I'm just taking a bus with you."
After that, Chief of Staff Lei picked up a topographic map, laid it out on the small table, and started studying it.
Li Xuewu, who felt thankless, handed over the cigarette in embarrassment, scratched his head, and sat back obediently.From his position, he originally saw that the self-proclaimed veteran was the only one armed with a pistol in the carriage, but unexpectedly, he was in trouble.
"Steel rolling mill, interesting"
Chief of Staff Lei lowered his head and looked at the map. With his repeated insistence, he is now a combat staff officer transferred to the Southwest Front Point by the General Staff. , Eastern Front, Middle Front, and Western Front, three front positions. He was assigned to the Western Front, which had the most difficult conditions.
Of course, now he does not know the existence of the other two front fingers.
On the map in front of me, it is clearly written on the right side, Lake Spangur. It is densely covered with some incomprehensible signs marking both sides, but from the contours, you can see The environment is very harsh, and the altitude is often in the range of 4,000, 5,000, or 6,000.
This place can be said to be a restricted area for human beings. It is extremely difficult for ordinary people to live here. No, it is extremely difficult to survive. Faced with such an environment, Lei Zhen did not frown and calmly stated. Make your own judgment and identify where the opponent may be stationed, as well as where your own side may be suitable for counterattack or even blocking.
After being quiet for a while, he continued to return to the noisy carriage, which did not affect his own work. He scrutinized and corrected carefully with a pencil, changing the map that was still clean in front of him into a completely unrecognizable one.
When the swaying carriage arrived at Yangquan Military Station, it was already afternoon. The green train slowly entered the station and stopped for the first time after leaving Beijing. On the platform, there were steamed buns already packed in bamboo baskets. The piles were full, and the tin buckets contained freshly dug well water. It was sweet and clear, making it a feast for the young people who were going out for the first time.
Consultant Lei, who was also among them, held the Erhe noodles steamed bun with a nonchalant expression, faced the west, and took a hard bite. Please remember to collect it, the latest and fastest website is free to read without anti-theft
