"The nightingale in the tunnel"The story of Liu Luzeng is a legend of bravery and wisdom dancing together. She was not only the only female soldier in China to serve as a broadcaster in the Battle of Shangganling, but also a woman who left an eternal legend on the Korean battlefield with her wit and courage. In the smoke of that war, she showed the heroic image of Chinese female soldiers in a harsh environment with her own efforts and ingenuity. And today, let's look back on this exciting history and the life of Liu Luzeng, the nightingale in the tunnel.
Liu Lu was born in 1928 into a famous family in Shanghai. She received a good Western-style education and studied law at Soochow University in Suzhou. However, when Liu Luzeng graduated, her family was bankrupt and she realized that she needed to contribute to the new society. So, she decided to actively sign up for the army and join the People's Liberation Army Art Troupe. However, due to her family background, she was unable to fulfill this wish.
Just when Liu Lu felt hopeless, the Korean War broke out. After the Chinese People's Volunteers went to Korea to fight in the war, they urgently needed English translators. After learning the news, Liu Lu had signed up for the volunteer army fighting on the Shangganling front, and she was sent to the Korean battlefield along with 21 other companions.
On the Korean battlefield, Liu Lu faced extremely difficult living conditions. Cold food and water, lack of clothing and medical equipment have become daily difficulties for her. However, she did not let this deter her and worked hard to adapt to this difficult environment.
Liu Lu was assigned to manage a prisoner's shelter. There, she not only had to translate a large number of military documents, but also had to work with uncooperative captives to get their information and transfer them out as quickly as possible. Although Liu Lu used to be a translator in the beginning, as the number of prisoners in the shelter increased, she had to face and solve many problems on her own.
Faced with the challenge of uncooperative American POWs, Liu Lu showed her courage and wisdom. She used her proficiency in English to converse with the POWs and break down their psychological defenses so that they could gradually let their guard down. She also used her ingenuity to devise a series of schemes to guide the prisoners of war to reveal more information. As a result of her efforts, the captives gradually realized that she was not an enemy, but someone who helped them, and they began to cooperate with her.
Another important role that Liu Lu had on the Korean battlefield was as a broadcaster. She took advantage of the temporary ceasefire during the fighting, and on the radio in the tunnels*** and morale-boosting words to boost morale. Her voice passed through the enemy's lines, inspiring the fighting spirit of the Chinese soldiers and also attracting the attention of the enemy.
Liu Lu had a very successful radio job in Shangganling. Her voice resounded like a nightingale across the battlefield, inspiring Chinese soldiers to fight bravely. Her broadcasts not only conveyed instructions and battle reports, but also some morale-boosting speeches and provided psychological support to the fighters.
