Title:
What a hero!The self-redemption of recruit Tang Lizhong, the thrilling moment of the Battle of the 103 Heights brought tears to people's eyes.
On February 15, 1979, an epic war was about to begin. The 41st Regiment of the 123rd Division of the 368rd Army of the Guangzhou Military Region received an order to arrive at the front line to prepare for battle. At this scorching moment, a sergeant named Tang Lizhong stepped forward.
Tang Lizhong, born in 1960 in Jianghua Village, Hunan, was born in a poor family and had no way to study, and spent his childhood in the farmland. However, when the national conscription order was issued, he responded without hesitation. This is not an impulse, but a man's responsibility. In the army selection, he stood out because of his peasant background and physical health, and became the best among the recruits.
When he first entered the barracks, Tang Lizhong faced not only intense military training, but also a huge gap with his comrades from the city. His academic performance was not yet fully up to par, but that didn't shake his determination. Tang Lizhong was firm and patient, and despite his weak theoretical knowledge, he continued to study silently and seek guidance during his breaks. Over time, his training results have gradually risen to the top, showing a determination and perseverance that cannot be underestimated.
However, even with the excellent results, the recruit Tang Lizhong still needs to return to the training base. At this time, the company commander's decision caused people to wonder. Why let Tang Lizhong participate in the actual battle?It turned out that the training subjects in the company simulated actual combat situations and used real guns and live ammunition. In this environment, Tang Lizhong was able to fully demonstrate his courage and determination.
During the battle to capture Heights 103, the enemy set up three bunkers, which became a huge obstacle to the advance of the troops. Six soldiers of the Seventh Company have been killed, and danger lurks. Faced with this situation, the commander of the 7th company ordered to temporarily hide and wait for the best time. The task was heavy, and the responsibility of blowing up the bunker fell on the shoulders of Tang Lizhong's 3rd squad.
Squad leader An Akimoto is an experienced veteran with a deep understanding of warfare. He observed that the bunker was triangular in shape, and the terrain was steep, making it difficult to capture. When he was thinking about the strategy, Tang Lizhong stepped forward: "Squad leader, I will definitely complete the task!."This decision surprised everyone, but An Qiuyuan did not stop it, but ordered Tang Lizhong to be given fire cover.
Tang Lizhong did not act rashly. He showed excellent blasting skills and was impressive. He quickly jumped into the crater near the bunker, and the frantic fire of the enemy sentry did not hold him back. Li Qiuyuan quickly commanded the soldiers to gather fire ** to suppress the opponent. At the moment of life and death, Tang Lizhong was in danger, skillfully changed his position, threw a grenade, and threw the ignited explosive bag into it while the smoke was obscured. With a loud bang, the first dark castle turned into ruins, but Tang Lizhong was unscathed.
This feat made company commander Li Qiuyuan overjoyed and gave Tang Lizhong high praise. However, this did not make Tang Lizhong complacent. On the contrary, he is more like a person who has come over, and says lightly: "After this", which seems to indicate more future battles and victories.
However, Tang Lizhong's battle did not end there. In this thrilling battle of 103 Heights, he showed not only courage and determination, but also responsibility to his comrades and the country. Faced with the last bunker, the situation remains grim.
When squad leader Li no longer forced Tang Lizhong to take risks for the sake of safety, Tang Lizhong asked for help again. Perhaps it was the previous outstanding performance that made squad leader Li have to acquiesce. Different from the excitement in the first test, this time Tang Lizhong seemed more calm. He is well aware of the daunting nature of the task, and he is always ready to face the danger of his life.
At this stage, Tang Lizhong is not alone. Junior officers and soldiers came to his aid, providing him with cover. Tang Lizhong successfully threw the explosives bag into the last bunker, and the mission was successfully completed. Our army also successfully occupied the 103 heights, and all the soldiers of the company respected Tang Li loyally.
Team Leader Li praised Tang Lizhong again and again. However, Tang Lizhong looked calm, even more calm than the veteran. He said lightly: "After that", as if to tell the world that this was just a starting point of his military career. However, it turns out that Tang Lizhong did not stop there.
After the war, the Chinese People's Liberation Army held a grand commendation. Tang Lizhong, who was only 19 years old, won the first-class meritorious service and was hailed as a "demolition hero" and became the first soldier in our army to receive a first-class meritorious service during the recruit training period. This glorious title did not make Tang Lizhong proud, and he still maintained the qualities of humility and tenacity.
Then, Tang Lizhong continued to serve in the army. He demonstrated exceptional leadership skills and steadily rose through the ranks, eventually becoming a colonel. This former recruit is now making a name for himself in the military and has become the pride of the troops. However, even in a high position, Tang Lizhong still maintained his original intention.
After retiring, he returned to the place and lived an ordinary and low-key life. But this did not make him forget his responsibility and mission. Tang Lizhong's heart is always filled with a sense of responsibility to defend the country, and he regards honorary titles more lightly than dung. This quality of sticking to his original intention has always kept him loyal to the motherland.
Countless people with lofty ideals have sacrificed their precious lives for the prosperity of the motherland. Their names deserve to be remembered forever. Tang Lizhong is one of them, and his heroic deeds have become a glorious chapter of our nation, inspiring generation after generation of Chinese to forge ahead bravely and unswervingly for the country and the people. He used his practical actions to interpret the responsibilities and responsibilities of soldiers, and became a model for the best people in the new era. All this is the indelible historical memory of our country and our common pride.
