Pi Dingjun inspected the border regiment and angrily ordered the political commissar not to movehours
Pi Dingjun, deputy commander of the Fuzhou Military Region, went to the front line of combat readiness training at the grassroots level in August 1964. In the face of the scorching heat, he was undaunted, led his secretary and staff to inspect a number of border posts, and always stayed at the forefront of combat readiness training.
Pi Dingjun inspected the border defense company, but was shocked by the scene in the pigsty. He sternly warned the political commissar: "Stand for an hour and don't move, otherwise you will be severely fined." The commissar understood why, the sun was scorching, and a breeder was sweating and stacking pigweed.
Seeing that the warrior was covered in sweat, Pi Dingjun stretched out his hand in distress to shake his hand, but the warrior was embarrassed to tell him that his hands were a little dirty. Pi Dingjun looked at him, his eyes were full of love, and he directly took his hand and said to him, "Hard work, little comrade." ”
The warrior was moved to say to Pidingjun that this was his duty and that he should do it. The little soldier also told Pi Dingjun that it was too hot and asked him to go to a shady place.
Pi Dingjun did not speak, but looked at Song Qingwei who was standing next to him, and criticized seriously: "Political Commissar Song, we have to care about the soldiers, without soldiers, how can we be the leaders?"
Build a shed for the soldiers, don't let them work hard under the scorching sun, we should at least meet their basic conditions. ”
Song Qingwei stood aside, apologized to Pi Dingjun with a red face, admitted that he had neglected the working environment of the breeders, and said that he would immediately rectify it. After hearing this, Pi Dingjun nodded, still remembering the incident after dinner.
He called the secretary into the room and asked if the shed of the pigsty had been erected, and the secretary replied that the shed had been erected, and Pi Dingjun was relieved. In the evening, Pi Dingjun talked with Political Commissar Song Qingwei, explained why he was punished for standing, and earnestly learned about some of the difficulties encountered by the current frontier defense company.
Title: Pi Dingjun: Soldiers are the cornerstone of the chief Text: In the memory of Song Qingwei, political commissar of the Jinan Military Region, the teachings of the old chief Pi Dingjun have always been engraved in his heart.
The old chief once said affectionately: "Without soldiers, there is no chief." These words were deeply imprinted in his heart and affected his whole life. In fact, Pi Dingjun's military career was full of glory, and his stories of caring for soldiers are innumerable.
During his Long March, this sentence was deeply understood by him. Once, during the Long March, Piding crossed the meadow, and a soldier could not walk because he was hungry, so he had to throw away his backpack to lighten his burden.
However, at night, he could only curl up beside the mound of dirt and shiver because he had thrown away his backpack and quilt. This story tells us that soldiers are the cornerstone of the chief, and only by caring for them can we win the loyalty and support of soldiers.
When breaking through in the Central Plains of the Leather Brigade, Pi Dingjun found a hungry and weak soldier, and he gave his quilt to the soldier, but the soldier politely refused, saying that he was about to die and did not want the chief to be cold.
Pi Dingjun was moved when he heard this, and said, "If there are no soldiers, how can there be a chief?" After saying that, he insisted on covering the warrior with a quilt, but the warrior still resolutely refused. In the end, Pi Dingjun decided to share a quilt with the warrior, lay down next to the warrior, and covered them both with the quilt.
Pi Dingjun gave books to the female militia late at night, and woke up the next day to find that the soldiers had been killed. He regretted that he had not been able to wake up at night to check on the warriors, believing that he had failed to do his duty.
This story was told to the staff by Pi Dingjun when he was the commander of the Lanzhou Military Region, and he deeply remembered the soldier's stiff body and pale face, which he could never forget.
Taking this as a lesson, he reminded leaders at all levels to care for soldiers, think that soldiers are the most lovable, and be strict with themselves based on this.
Pi Dingjun's heroic deeds are regrettable, as he was unfortunately killed in a plane crash in 1976 while organizing a military exercise. If he hadn't passed away, there might have been more touching stories of loving soldiers.
Because this deep love has long been integrated into his blood and bones.
