The old farmer's son was unsuccessful in joining the army, and he took out his primary school textbook and said:The martyrs inside include me.
In 1990, an old farmer in his sixties was anxiously pacing at the door, and after a while, his son Li Guangzhong returned dejectedly. Seeing the old father waiting at the door, Li Guangzhong shook his head and sighed, and the old father sighed helplessly, it seems that this time his son failed to become a soldier again.
I thought that my son would give up this time, but I didn't expect Li Guangzhong to stubbornly ask: "I know you have a way, you can help me." Looking at the poor little son, the old father nodded helplessly, he did have a little "relationship" in the army.
Subsequently, the old father came to the troops stationed in Baoding, Hebei Province, and was taken to the reception room in a cramped and uneasy manner. There, he saw Officer Xie from the secretariat and hurriedly introduced himself: "I am Li Yuan, a veteran. ”
As he spoke, Li Yu'an carefully took out his disability certificate and the textbook printed with "Who is the cutest person" from his cloth pocket, saying: "I am the martyr here." ”
Li Yu'an, a former veteran of the Volunteer Army, died heroically in the battle of Songgu Peak. However, just when everyone thought he was sleeping in the ground, he was miraculously "resurrected".
The news shocked the people sitting around, and they couldn't help but start questioning whether the old farmer had really been a martyr. After all, in the First World War of Korea, the loveliest person, Li Yu'an, his heroic deeds have been deeply imprinted in people's hearts.
He was born in a small county town in Henan Province, and he left his hometown as a young man in order to make a living. Later, when he was a teenager, he signed up for the army and became a member of the Chinese People's Liberation Army.
He followed the troops to participate in the Battle of Siping, the Battle of Western Liaoning, and the Battle of Pingjin, and made several great achievements. After the liberation of the country, he became a deputy squad leader. However, at the moment when the whole country was celebrating the liberation, Li Yu'an resolutely stepped on the Korean battlefield.
There, his team of 100 people was ordered to stop the American army in the battle of Songgu Peak, and the battle was fierce and heavy. However, it was in this battle that Li Yu'an died heroically.
However, instead of being laid to rest in the ground, he was miraculously "resurrected". The news shocked the people sitting around, and they couldn't help but start questioning whether the old farmer had really been a martyr.
Blazing fire, flaming shells and petrol bombs turned the battlefield into flames, and the soldiers had to fight to the death in the flames. When they ran out of ammunition, they used bayonets, without bayonets they were bare-handed, and in the worst case, they even killed the enemy with grenades.
After the battle, some of the heroic warriors were found, some clutching the enemy's throat, some clinging to the enemy's waist, and some were even burned to death along with the enemy.
In this battle, the number of survivors of our army was only in the single digits, but fortunately, we managed to win the resistance battle in the end, which became the most heroic battle of the Korean War.
Deeply moved by the selfless dedication of the martyrs, Wei Wei, a frontline cultural worker, learned of the battle, and decided to let the people of China remember these heroes.
As a result, the article "Who is the cutest person" was included in the Chinese textbooks of primary and secondary schools, and their names were: Wang Jinchuan, Xing Yutang, Jing Yuzhuo, Wang Wenying, Li Yuan, Xiong Guanquan, ......
Li Yu'an, a hero who was mistaken for a "living martyr". He didn't really die, but was seriously wounded on the battlefield and fell into a coma. A bugle officer of the Korean People's Army discovered his breath and carried it to a fellow villager's house.
After being sheltered and treated by the brother units of the Volunteer Army, he finally returned to China to accept **. But his former troops mistakenly believed that he had died and put him on the list of martyrs.
After returning to China, he underwent several major surgeries in Northeast China and Wuhan, leaving a scar the size of a bowl on his body. When he was discharged from the hospital, he did not ask for anything, he just took his disability certificate and was demobilized, and he did not look for his original unit.
His story teaches us that true heroes are often the loveliest of people, who give selflessly, whether in life or death.
Li Yuan, an unknown demobilized disabled soldier, was sent to Xinglong Town, Bayan County, Heilongjiang Province in 1952 to begin his life in the grain depot. As a weight picker, he has to be responsible for weighing every day, but despite this, he still adheres to his principles, and resolutely does not take advantage of the country when everything he sends comes from.
This spirit of his was called "the spirit of not taking advantage of the country" and was later written into textbooks.
The leaders of the grain depot were full of praise: "Lao Li is really a fair and just ruler." Li Yu'an silently dedicated himself for ten years, until he met someone. For the sake of his son, he stood up and was restored as a martyr.
One day in 1964, Li Yu'an went to the county to change his disability certificate and unexpectedly met his former comrade-in-arms Wang Jiuhai. Li Yu'an happily went over to say hello, but Wang Jiuhai was taken aback when he saw him, and only after recovering did he ask in surprise: "It turns out that you are still alive, everyone thinks that you have sacrificed, and the memorial service has been opened for you." ”
From Wang Jiuhai's mouth, Li Yu'an realized that he had been mistaken for sacrifice. After returning home, Li Yu'an remembered the "Li Yuan" in that text, and guessed in his heart that the eight achievements mentioned above were him.
He pondered for a while and asked the children to read to him "Who is the cutest person?"
When Li Yu'an heard the news, he couldn't help but shed tears. The scenes he had experienced on the battlefield seemed to be right in front of him, and a deep sense of gratitude welled up in his heart, it turned out that those heroic soldiers had not been forgotten.
His children saw that there was something wrong with their father's expression, so they asked curiously, "Is it you who wrote Li Yu'an?" Li Yu'an hesitated for a moment, and then said vaguely: "There are many people with the same name. ”
The children did not believe that there could be such a coincidence, and they insisted: "If it is you, then our family's difficulties can be helped." Hearing this, Li Yu'an's face immediately became serious, and he said loudly: "Don't mention the matter of finding ** again." ”
He knew in his heart that there were too many soldiers sacrificed in the Korean War, and he was already very lucky to survive, so how could he still trouble now**. When his children saw that their father was angry, they stopped talking about it.
Li Yu'an also did not intend to tell anyone about this, if it weren't for his son's matter, he might have brought this secret into his coffin.
In February 1990, Li Yu'an had been retired for many years, and the children in the family had grown up and had their own lives, but the youngest son, Li Guangzhong, insisted on becoming a soldier.
Although Li Yu'an hoped to support his son to serve the country, there was a quota for conscription at that time, and Li Guangzhong did not get the opportunity for several years. So, he thought of his father and knew that the person in the textbook was Li Yu'an.
He kept asking Li Yu'an to help him intercede in the army. Seeing that his son's desire to be a soldier was disappointed, Li Yuan couldn't bear it, and finally agreed to his son's request, and found the army with the determination to show his face.
In the reception room, Li Yu'an introduced his past to the reception staff with apprehension, he knew that time had passed so long, and he didn't know if the other party still knew him.
When he heard Li Yuan's "death and resurrection", Director Xie was also a little surprised. He immediately reported the situation to his superiors. Soon, Li Miaosheng, director of the Military History Office, personally received Li Yu'an.
Li Miaosheng participated in the Korean War and knew the Songgu Peak battle very well. After communicating with Li Yu'an, he found that he was very familiar with the battle, and the scars on his body confirmed his identity.
Facing this emaciated old soldier, Li Miaosheng asked with concern, "What are you here for this time?" Li Yu'an said his youngest son's idea of wanting to be a soldier, and then explained apologetically: "We really can't help it, otherwise we wouldn't have come to trouble the troops." ”
After knowing this situation, Li Miaosheng and other leaders held a meeting together, and after consulting with the local **, it was decided to accept Li Yuan'an's son into the army as a special situation, and they could not make the old soldiers feel cold.
After Li Yu'an's son joined the army, he didn't want to cause trouble to the leaders of the army, and he was in a happy mood when he returned home. However, his "resurrection" caused a sensation across the country.
Wei Wei, the author of "Who is the Loveliest Person", was surprised and delighted when he learned that Li Yu'an was still alive because of his repeated awards, and decided to meet him.
Since Wei Wei couldn't leave Beijing because of something at that time, he contacted Li Yu'an through various means, hoping that he would have time to come to Beijing as a guest. After Li Yu'an learned that Wei Wei wanted to see him, he went to Beijing accompanied by his family and met Wei Wei.
Although the two had never met before, they now hit it off at first sight. Seeing that the martyr he wrote in the book was "alive", Wei Wei was very emotional, and he sincerely invited Li Yuan to eat at home.
Wei Wei expressed his admiration for Li Yuan'an's heroic deeds, presented himself with "The East" and "Wei Wei's Prose Collection", and wrote thanks and respect on the first page of the book. Wei Wei also wrote a special letter to the local ** to explain that Li Yuan was a combat hero, had made meritorious contributions, and hoped to be taken care of.
Although Li Yu'an was worried about bothering others, he did not give the letter to ** and kept it by himself. Li Yu'an's selflessness and modesty are admirable, and his heroic deeds have also been fairly recognized.
When the deeds of martyr Li Yu'an were widely disseminated, he felt a little uneasy because he felt that he had caused too much trouble to the troops. But he could not change reality, and his heroic deeds have already caused a national sensation.
He received letters from all over the world expressing people's admiration. Major provinces and cities invited him to give a report and conduct education in the revolutionary tradition. He has won honors such as "Good Party Member with Selfless Dedication" and "Special Model Worker".
Even Yang Dezhi, the former commander of the Chinese People's Volunteers, received him. Li Yu'an's deeds make people full of admiration and respect for him.
On October 23, Li Yuan visited the DPRK as a representative of Chinese people's friendship, and his selfless dedication was highly recognized by the DPRK leaders, and he was awarded the highest honor of the DPRK, the Order of the National Flag, First Class.
During his visit to North Korea, Li Yu'an affectionately visited eight martyrs' cemeteries, looked at many nameless tombstones, and his heart was full of nostalgia and admiration for his comrades-in-arms.
He also wanted to go to Songgu Peak, where he had fought, but due to the schedule, he was not able to fulfill this wish. During this time, Li Yu'an has been spending time with flowers and applause, and Heilongjiang Province even filmed a TV series called "After the Smoke Clears" based on him to commemorate this brave veteran.
Although Li Yu'an has won many honors, he has always maintained his humble and unpretentious nature, whether he is famous or not, he is the ordinary Li Yu'an.
He cares about his hometown and plans to build roads to worship his ancestors; He sticks to his principles and pays out of his own pocket when he goes out to report; He fought for the country and dedicated himself to the people, but in the end he was afraid of causing trouble to the people and the country.
In the first war of Korea, he was disabled and demobilized, even if his life was meager, he did not want his family to bother **, and asked for the country. The son wanted to serve the country, but he did not become a soldier for several years, so he was willing to ask for help from the army, but he was worried about causing trouble to everyone.
Li Yu'an, this warrior, no matter how many years have passed, his selfless dedication without seeking fame and fortune is still the most lovable person in today's society.
In the war, there are not only martyrs who died bravely, but also many unknown heroes who quietly paid for their country in a corner, and although their names may be forgotten by history, their spirit will always live in our hearts.
We cannot forget the heroes who lost their lives in the war, whose sacrifices paved the way for our peaceful lives.
