Ideological and political education sprouts here
China ** Network reporter Bi Xiaotian Wu Yanzhou correspondent Cao Hongguang.
One day in March 2023, the first rays of sunlight in the morning poured into the Liaoshen Battle Memorial Hall, and all the displays in the exhibition hall were once again brought to life.
In the preface hall**, the large-scale sculpture "Decisive Battle and Decisive Victory" stands majestically. The mighty moment when the People's Liberation Army marched forward with a gun and broke through the city walls was vividly reproduced by the sculpture.
Below the sculpture, Xiao Kang, a soldier of the armed police, wearing a megaphone on his head, his arms hanging down and naturally straightening, stood there quietly, he is the volunteer docent of today's memorial hall.
After a while, the memorial hall was crowded. Xiao Kang looked at the squadron recruits who were neatly lined up from the crowd, he met the curious eyes one by one, cleared his throat, and walked up.
Hello new comrades-in-arms. ”

Find the motivation to move forward in history
Jinzhou, a heroic city.
This is one of the main battlefields of the Liaoshen Campaign, and the land that has been plowed by artillery fire is soaked in the blood of countless heroes. Liaoshen Battle Memorial Hall, Baihutun Battle Site, Black Mountain Resistance War Memorial Hall ......There are too many singing and crying stories sleeping on this land, waiting for future generations to excavate.
The Linghai Squadron of the Fourth Brigade of the Jinzhou Detachment of the Liaoning Armed Police Corps stationed here has gone through the baptism of the War of Liberation and the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and has gone through 76 years of glorious years.
When Xiao Kang was a recruit, he came to the squadron honor room, and he looked at the pennants and medals displayed inside, and longed for it. "Be sure to contribute to the construction of the squadron! Xiao Kang secretly decided.

With the passage of time, the people in the squadron have changed one after another, and Xiao Kang has gradually grown from a recruit to the backbone of the squadron, becoming the "old squad leader" in everyone's mouth. He trained and studied with the fighters, and everyone was willing to talk to him about anything.
The officers and men of the squadron are getting higher and higher in terms of academic qualifications, and in the face of the fighters who are ideologically active, how can they do a good job in ideological and political education and talk about the party's innovative theoretical achievements? This is a question that Xiao Kang has been thinking about.
Reading books and newspapers every day, on the small notebook that Xiao Kang carries with him, his understanding is densely written. Whenever he had free time, he shared his experience with the soldiers and encouraged them to learn more and think often. "Proceeding from the actual conditions of the troops to explain theoretical knowledge, so that officers and men like to hear and see, and easy to accept and agree with, this is the real ability." This is Xiao Kang's concept of ideological and political education.
Later, Xiao Kang became more and more famous, and everyone elected him as the docent of the honor room, and he talked about the history of the squadron's loyalty, combat, and endeavor. When the squadron established contact with the Liaoshen Campaign Memorial Hall and invited officers and soldiers to serve as docents in the museum on a regular basis, Xiao Kang was honorably selected.
Xiao Kang shared his experience with the soldiers. **Provided by the respondent.
In the exhibition hall, the docent is a seeker of history and a teller of stories. "In the Tashan blockade battle, the soldiers died heroically in order to defend the position, and the regiment commander ordered the 9th company to move to the position and continue to hold on. At that time, the instructor of the 9th Company swallowed the bread in his hand and said to everyone: 'Comrades, this may be our last meal, everyone must eat enough. The next day, the soldiers of the 9th Company died heroically to defend the position, and this meal really became everyone's last meal. Speaking of this, Xiao Kang's words trembled and choked up several times.
Jinzhou is a heroic city, which contains rich red resources. We must make good use of these resources, do a good job in every ideological and political education class, and inherit the revolutionary spirit of our ancestors. This is the heartfelt voice of Xiao Kang and all the officers and men of the squadron.
From "understandable" to "spoken".
Ideological and political education cannot be divorced from reality, and it must also be steaming hot, stained with dew drops and the smell of earth.
In view of the problem of officers and men who are not good at expressing themselves in language, Li Kai, the political instructor of the squadron, made great efforts to train the soldiers' speech ability, and guided the soldiers to go to the podium and share their feelings in a language that everyone understands and is willing to listen to.
Use the language of soldiers to talk about the hearts of soldiers, talk about feelings and tell the truth. Gradually, the fighters became not only the narrators of the squadron culture, but also the disseminators of the party's innovative theories.
Recruit Zhou Legend was reluctant to raise his hand to speak, and with everyone's encouragement, he finally raised his hand in an education class. Since then, Zhou Legend has been able to share his experience with his comrades-in-arms at any time, and his powerful and in-depth speeches have won everyone's praise.
Soldier Zhang Qinglei was so nervous that he couldn't speak when he connected with the "Great Meritorious Third Company", and then he immersed himself in studying as soon as he had time, and with the help of the instructor, he won the squadron's quarterly theoretical star. In the applause of everyone, he regained his self-confidence.
In 2019, the officers and soldiers of the squadron spontaneously formed a propaganda group, and Xiao Kang was the first to sign up. Initially, there were only five people in the group, and everyone told red stories, advanced models, and innovative theories; as the quality of the content of the lectures became higher and higher, the enthusiasm of the officers and men for studying the party's innovative theories became higher and higher, and more and more comrades-in-arms joined them. The squadron has trained more than 30 theoretical backbones and red commentators, and the propaganda group has also become a cultural brand of the Jinzhou Detachment of the Armed Police.
Nowadays, the cadres of the squadron and Xiao Kang combine the content of ideological education with the art form, collect the stories of their comrades-in-arms, compile allegro lyrics, and create their own melodramas, and the educational position extends from the classroom to the playground, from the indoor to the stage.
The officers and men of the squadron created allegro to tell the stories of their comrades-in-arms. **Provided by the respondent.
Change always happens subtly. At present, there are no people in the squadron who are specifically responsible for teaching ideological and political theories; In other words, everyone is a good hand at the squadron to talk about theory.
Across time, start again
Every year, when the recruits leave the company and the veterans are discharged, Xiao Kang and other docents of the squadron will give voluntary explanations at the memorial hall. During the explanation, not only the officers and soldiers, but also the tourists passing by will stop and listen.

In the memorial, if there is a trace of excitement in your heart, it is the echo of history.
Xiao Kang had seen ignorant children staring at old objects in front of the display case for a long time. During the explanation, the children's questions surrounded his ears one after another: "Uncle, what's going on with this cannon?" "Tell us another story." Looking at the adoring eyes of the children when they stared at the military uniforms, Xiao Kang felt a sense of pride in his heart.
Xiao Kang had seen the recruits feel something under the influence of red education. After the explanation, a soldier said to him: "Squad Leader Xiao, I have also watched military-themed film and television dramas before, and I have visited many memorial halls. But when I actually put on my uniform and stood here, I found that the feeling was very different. ”
This is the first lesson for the recruits to be baptized by thought, and after this class, their hearts have also settled down, and they all have goals and directions. Back in the squadron, everyone was tightly united like pomegranate seeds. Fighters learn theoretical knowledge in the classroom, train together on the training ground, and have fun together. In the face of honor, everyone is actively striving for success, and everyone is running the road of meritorious service.
Xiao Kang had seen the veterans reluctantly looking at Zhan Chen speechlessly. After the last lesson, the veterans rushed into the sea and ushered in the wind and rain. But the comradeship-in-arms will not be separated by mountains and seas after all, and this is everyone's eternal home. Hui Xingfu, a retired veteran who enlisted in the army in 1977, still insisted on writing letters to the squadron to report his thoughts 27 years after leaving the army.
The squadron held a ceremony to send off the veterans. **Provided by the respondent.
The power of ideological and political education is to plant a seed in the softest place in people's hearts, waiting for everyone to water it with their own unique experience, and wait for new sprouts to sprout in the spring of next year.
This power will run through the long years of a person's life, and at a certain moment when it is not **, it will complete the closed loop of education. This power is both in the brain and in the heart.
2023 is the 16th year of veteran Xiao Kang's service in the squadron. After the New Year, he also left this place that carried too many memories of himself. Standing at the memorial again, this was the last time he gave a lecture to the recruits.
Facing the curious eyes of the recruits, he remembered the gossip discussions he and his comrades had in class, and the scene of everyone helping each other on the training ground......
Hello new comrades-in-arms. ”
