The body of the article. On the roof of the world, in the vast desolation, the Xin-Tibet line is like a magical ribbon, one end is tied to the southern edge of the Taklamakan Desert, and the other end is tied to the Gangdis Mountain on the Ali Plateau, with an average altitude of more than 4,500 meters, and is known as the snowy "heavenly road". It is a challenging path, and every journey is full of hardships and dangers. For the officers and men of a certain automobile transport regiment of the Western Theater Air Force, this is the place where they stick to their posts and perform their duties.
Ma Lan, a corporal, can't remember how many times he has traveled on the Xin-Tibet line. The road passes through the Kunlun Mountains, the Karakoram Mountains, the Himalayas and the Gangdis Mountains, with more than 10 Daban and dozens of glaciers in between. Ma Lan and his comrades-in-arms did not complain, they used their youth and sweat to silently connect their lives with this road.
This unit has a long history. Since their formation on the banks of the Yalu River in the winter of 1950, they have fought a steel transportation line on the battlefield to resist US aggression and aid Korea with rolling wheels and flesh and blood. After the victory of the war, they were transferred to active duty and have been on the front line of the mission. For more than 70 years, while their mission area has been extended, the battle fortress has always stood strong on the front line of the mission.
Last year, the company carried out the task of transporting oil. On the way, the convoy traveled to a military station to prepare for rest. Suddenly, I received a notice that the refueling equipment was faulty and would have to be repaired the next day at the earliest. In the face of difficulties, a group of people from the party branch immediately met to study and reach an agreement, and after reaching an agreement, the troops who had gone through a difficult trek arrived at their destination as planned.
On this plateau transportation line, every mission is a journey of pursuing the original intention. Instructor Chen said, "Galloping on the plateau transportation line, every time I perform a task, it is a process of pursuing my original intention. "In this environment, there is no need to say more about the growth and education of young officers and soldiers, and every mission is a baptism of faith.
The challenge of this "heavenly path" does not end there. This year, the company has taken the training of skills such as driving on complex roads under field conditions, driving with lights off at night, driving on washboard roads, and first aid on the way as the main content of the assessment of recruits. Although these training courses are difficult, they are designed to enable them to better complete their tasks in the future battlefield.
On this arduous and dangerous "heavenly road," the officers and men of a certain automobile transport regiment of the air force of the Western Theater overcame the high cold and lack of oxygen, overcame difficulties and dangers, crushed ice and snow, slept in the open air, and successfully completed various tasks. Their story is a history of growth where perseverance and challenges coexist.
