In 1948, on the snow-covered land of the Northeast, the Northeast People's Liberation Army led by ** and the Ninth Division of the Kuomintang Army commanded by Liao Yaoxiang met in the snow.
The two armies were in full battle, everything around them seemed to be frozen, and a war that had been waiting for 15 years to determine the future national fortune was about to break out, which was the Liaoshen Campaign. In this battle, the People's Liberation Army paid a huge price, in order to protect the soldiers who died on the battlefield can be buried in the ground, our army sent a large number of health teams to clean up the battlefield and carry out the work of collecting and burying the corpses.
Among the members of these health teams are three female soldiers. During a battlefield cleanup, they stumbled upon a ruined temple that was still standing in place after a rain of gunfire.
Intrigued, they went to check it out, but it wasn't long before they were shocked and hurried away. So, what exactly did they find in the temple that made them so panicked?
And what is there about this unit that deserves praise and admiration?
* Under the leadership of the marshal, the Northeast Field Army launched the Liaoshen Campaign in September 1948, and after careful consideration, it was decided to give priority to attacking Jinzhou. After encircling Jinzhou, the Northeast Field Army launched a fierce attack on the Kuomintang troops in it, and in just three days, the enemy army was extremely heavy.
Chiang Kai-shek was so anxious that he hurriedly dispatched Liao Yaoxiang's corps, which was far away in Shenyang, to come to support. Unexpectedly, the leader of the corps, Liao Yaoxiang, was actually a "street slipper" who was used to stealing and playing tricks, and he promised well, but he never moved.
Seeing that Jinzhou was about to be lost, Chiang Kai-shek was angry and anxious, and immediately hit multiple ** and scolded Liao Yaoxiang for a bloody head. Under the heavy pressure of all parties, Liao Yaoxiang led the corps to support the south.
At this time, our army was in a critical period for the recovery of Jinzhou. After receiving this information, Marshal ** immediately issued an order for Liang Xingchu to lead the Northeast Field Army in the Ten Columns and immediately go to Montenegro to prevent the enemy from reinforcing them.
At the end of October 1948, the two armies met, and the Montenegrin Resistance War officially began.
Liao Yaoxiang's corps thinks very highly of itself and despises our army, believing that it is as easy to destroy us as ants and only need to move their fingers. There are as many as 110,000 of them, and they are well equipped and protected by aircraft artillery, while we have only 20,000 people, ** old, and even millet plus rifles are not advanced, let alone aircraft artillery.
However, they ignored our determination, and we swore to defend Montenegro to the death, fearless of life and death, just to serve the country, the party, and the people.
As time passed, the situation began to reverse, and our army began to ** enemy forces. On October 15, when the news of the liberation of Jinzhou came, our large army quickly assembled in Montenegro, determined to destroy Liao Yaoxiang's corps in one fell swoop.
However, Liao Yaoxiang felt panicked and began to try his best to break through and prepare to retreat to Yingkou. The situation became tense again, the enemy began to fight back fiercely, and the two armies were once again locked in a fierce battle.
In this case, Liao Yaoxiang insisted on firing guns regardless of his own people, resulting in many **. A few hours later, our large force arrived, and the two sides worked together to successfully eliminate Liao Yaoxiang's corps, and at the same time capture alive the commander of the New Sixth Army, Li Tao. In this way, the "Western Advance Corps" collapsed in an instant.
As the battle ended, our fighters began to clear the battlefield of Montenegro. A field health team was tasked with burying the fallen soldiers. Among them, there are also many young female warriors, who are full of grief as they look at the battlefield strewn with corpses.
Under the guidance of the instructor, they walked to the corpses of their comrades-in-arms with heavy steps, squatted down gently, silently sorted out the bodies of their comrades-in-arms, and buried them in the soil pit outside the village.
Every time one is buried, they will stop, stand upright in front of the earthen bag, and salute the army. Perhaps this is the most ideal farewell ceremony in the hearts of soldiers, to welcome life in the military salute, and also to end life in the military salute.
Out of humanitarian reasons, the remains of the Kuomintang fighters were properly placed in a special area. As everyone busily cleared the battlefield and buried their comrades, their eyes were drawn to a ruined temple.
The walls of the temple are dark red, and the mottled walls are imprinted with the traces of time. The roof is made of tiles, which are old, and almost all the tiles on the edges of the perimeter have fallen off, and weeds have come out of the cracks in the tiles and dance in the wind.
Amazingly, the temple survived the hail of bullets and bullets unscathed.
1.Everyone worked and had a heated discussion, and it was said that the temple must be enshrined in the Guanyin Bodhisattva's manifestation to protect the temple;It is also said that it is a land temple, and the villagers pray for good weather and good weatherOthers say it could be the Temple of Wealth.
Everyone has their own opinions, but they all add a touch of fun to the monotonous work. After the final task was completed, the instructor led everyone to prepare to return to the village to rest. At this time, Meng Mei and the other three female team members proposed to go to the temple to see what god was enshrined to satisfy their curiosity.
Looking at the curiosity and pleading on their faces, the instructor smiled helplessly and said, "You female comrades, I really can't do anything about you, and I don't feel tired and panicked after working for a long time." ”
Then he deliberately scared them: "Be careful that there are ghosts in it, eat you in one bite!" After saying that, he waved his hand helplessly, motioning for them to go and return quickly. Meng Mei and the others walked towards the temple together, the red gate was tightly closed, and they also heard a trace of desolate crying.
2.Everyone was talking about it while they were working. Some people say that the temple must be dedicated to Guanyin Bodhisattva, and the mother appeared to protect the temple; Some people also say that it may be the Land Temple, which was built by the villagers in order to pray for good weather and rain; There is also speculation that it may be the Temple of Wealth.
Everyone has their own opinions, but they all bring a little fun to the boring work. After the task is completed, the instructor leads everyone to prepare to return to the village to rest. At this time, Meng Mei and the other three female team members proposed to go to the temple to satisfy their curiosity.
Looking at the curious and eager looks on their faces, the instructor smiled helplessly and said, "You female comrades, I really can't do anything about you, and I don't feel tired after working for half a day." ”
Then he deliberately scared them: "Be careful that there are ghosts in it, and eat you in one bite." After saying that, he waved his hand helplessly, motioning for them to go and return quickly. Meng Mei and the others walked towards the temple together, the red gate was tightly closed, and they also heard a trace of desolate crying.
Although they were female soldiers, they were predators, and their courage was better than that of ordinary women, and the three of them worked together to open the temple door in one go. They walked in slowly, only to feel that it was dark inside, as if a pair of dark green eyes were hidden, staring at them deadly.
Their hearts tightened, could it be that what the instructor said was true, there were really ghosts in it? However, when their eyes adjusted to the darkness, they could see clearly that the temple was actually lying on the wounded Kuomintang soldiers, some with bandages on their heads, some with strips of cloth wrapped around their legs, moaning in pain; Some were covered in blood and lay on the ground uncertain about their lives.
And those dark green eyes are their signal for help.
Seeing three female soldiers entering, the wounded inside wailed and asked for help. The three of them looked at them, thinking of the battlefield full of corpses, and thinking of their former comrades-in-arms who had now become cold corpses, and their hearts couldn't help but be full of resentment.
If it weren't for them, the comrades-in-arms would not have left, and not so many people would have lost their lives. When the Kuomintang wounded saw the three people standing still, their eyes suddenly turned red, and they picked up gold, silver, jewelry, grain, rice, and noodles and stuffed them to the three people, begging as they stopped, "Help us!"
Help us....The three of them looked at the jewels and food in their hands, and they were furious, which was clearly insulting them! Which of these jewels and grains was not taken by them?
Which one is not the hard-earned money of ordinary people? The three of them threw their belongings to the ground, and the wounded still swarmed up, and soon a physical altercation broke out between the two sides.
The instructor led the male soldiers to the temple to check the situation, and found that the female soldiers were in a stalemate with the wounded Kuomintang soldiers. The instructor immediately issued a warning and told everyone to back off. The female soldiers took the opportunity to break out of the encirclement and hid behind the instructors.
The atmosphere became tense, and the Kuomintang and the People's Liberation Army faced off. Suddenly, a man covered in bandages rushed to the instructor and shouted, "Uncle! Uncle! I'm your nephew! ”
Looking at the nephew in front of him, the instructor had mixed feelings in his heart. He turned his head and carefully identified it, and found that it was indeed his long-missing nephew. Seeing that the nephew was covered with scars, the two couldn't help but hug and cry.
After crying for a while, the two calmed down. The instructor asked, "Why did you join the army?" The nephew smiled bitterly and said, "They are strong and strong, and I don't want to join the Kuomintang at all." ”
Hearing this, the other wounded also stepped forward, hoping that he could help them. The instructor comforted: "Don't worry, we will never leave you alone. Even if the Kuomintang doesn't care, we will do our best to help you. ”
Then, the instructor said that he would go back first and ask his superiors, and the wounded expressed their understanding. Although the current situation is very difficult, they believe that with determination, they will be able to overcome the difficulties and win the final victory.
The instructor and the team members hurried to the village and immediately reported the situation in the temple to the chief of health, and at the same time did not hold back about matters involving their nephews. The director of health said decisively: "Save people! ”
He said: "Although they are the Kuomintang, our enemies, they have killed many of our brothers, they have oppressed the people, but if we don't save them, the people around us will not save them."
Death is not the style of our people's army! ”
He said firmly: "Whatever method is used, make sure that they are treated, and that no one will die!" Hearing this, the team members immediately took action, using various tools to make stretchers, marched towards the temple, transferred the wounded inside to the village, and gave the same care as the wounded of our army.
Medical staff are at the bedside day and night to change their dressings**;In terms of diet, what they eat, our wounded eat. Looking at everything in the medical center, the wounded Kuomintang felt both joy and grief, and rejoiced that they were finally out of their predicament, rescued, and alive;Sadly, their army ignored them, but it was their old adversaries for many years who saved them.
How can this stark contrast not be touching?
After a period of time, the health team had to leave because of the fighting, and the clinic had to be disbanded. PLA fighters were assigned tasks, but the wounded Kuomintang who were recuperating could not find a place to settle.
The instructor asked the director of the health center about the solution, and the director showed a very troubled expression, because it was not realistic to take them all away, so he had to ask the local people.
However, the Kuomintang had killed many people and robbed a lot of food, so the people were not necessarily willing to accept them. The instructor decided to persuade the people in person, and after some efforts, finally obtained the consent of the people, and properly resettled the wounded Kuomintang soldiers.
After recovering from their injuries, most of these wounded chose to become the People's Liberation Army.
Self-discipline and tolerance are the keys to our success. We are strict with ourselves and are not allowed to take a stitch from the masses. We treat others, whether they are high-ranking Kuomintang ** or small soldiers on the front line, and strive to influence them to become our partners.
This is not only the first principle of the military, but now it should be the code of conduct for everyone.
