In that era of fire, radio waves became an invisible bridge, connecting countless hearts that struggled for their beliefs and ideals. It communicates the emotions and beliefs of thousands of miles apart, and witnesses the bravery and perseverance of the revolutionary soldiers. This article will take you into the world of Su Caiqing and Li Bai, two revolutionary fighters who are in love with the airwaves, and feel how their stories have left a strong mark on the scroll of history.
Su Caiqing, a rural girl born in Shanxi Province in 1932, grew up in an era of war. In 1945, at the age of 13, she responded to the call of the times and resolutely joined the Eighth Route Army and embarked on the road of revolution. With her ingenuity and hard work, Su Caiqing quickly became an excellent radio transmitter. Her keen insight and understanding of radio technology have made her a niche in this field. In 1947, she was selected as an important member of the general radio station of the whole army and obtained the qualification to work independently on the computer. Little did she know, however, that an even more difficult task awaited her.
At two o'clock in the morning on December 30, 1948, Su Caiqing was in close contact with the underground radio station in Shanghai in the communication room. At that time, Shanghai had become an important stronghold of the enemy, and her task was to establish stable communication links with liaison officers who had penetrated deep behind enemy lines. The mission was extremely secretive, and she knew nothing about who she was contacting, only the frequency and call signs of the other party. In this dangerous and challenging task, she was undaunted, and with firm conviction and excellent technology, she conveyed important information for the revolutionary cause.
However, on this cold winter night, Su Caiqing noticed something unusual. Li Bai's telegram was hurried and unusual, and after the end of the communication, instead of sending a "goodbye" signal as usual, it sent a "vvv" - a special warning signal.
Su Caiqing immediately realized the seriousness of the situation, and she quickly contacted her superiors to report the situation. Colleagues throughout the communications room gathered around the radio station, nervously awaiting news from Shanghai. However, after a long night of waiting, there was still no response.
The course of history seems to have taken an abrupt turn. During the War of Liberation, especially at the critical juncture when the People's Liberation Army broke through the Yangtze River and Nanjing was about to be liberated, Li Bai's task became more and more important. He not only had to convey the movements of the enemy's troops, but also provide the PLA with important intelligence on the marching route. However, at this critical moment, Li Bai's fate changed dramatically.
In the following years, Su Caiqing actively participated in the Battle of Crossing the River and the Campaign to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and became a core member of radio communication technology. However, there was always a question in her mind: what really happened that night?It wasn't until 2005 that she found the answer in the article "The Radio Waves That Never Fall Silent - Li Bai". It turned out that the predecessor she had contacted was the martyr Li Bai. In the last telegram sent by Li Bai, he said goodbye to his comrades: "Farewell, comrades, I miss you. This shocking answer lifts the veil of history and shows us the courage and perseverance of an era.
The story of Su Caiqing and Li Bai is not only a good story, but also a true portrayal of the history of the Anti-Japanese War. Su Caiqing's youth fluctuated in the airwaves, and she shouldered the responsibility of history with her young shoulders. And Li Bai is a bright star in the long river of history, he has given everything for the party and the people, and he is unswerving.
This journey to uncover the historical code gives us a deeper understanding of the radio waves of that era. The power of loyalty and faith is vividly reflected in this story. The stories of Su Caiqing and Li Bai are like eternal radio waves, echoing far and wide in the long river of history, making us feel the glory of that era and the heroism and fearlessness of the revolutionary martyrs, and their spirit will always inspire us to move forward.
