When the Korean War broke out, the Korean battlefield became the focus of attention of the Chinese people. For the sake of the future of the country, the chairman resolutely ordered the dispatch of heroic volunteers to fight in Korea.
During the war, the Chinese People's Volunteers created one miracle after another, and finally ended the war in 1953.
In 1951, a Shandong soldier Song Huiguo experienced a thrilling encounter while transporting grain for the 38th Army. Not only did he lose his grain, but he also lost the American-style trucks that transported it.
These supplies were very important at the time, and their loss could lead to delays in warplanes, with serious consequences. However, when Song Huiguo reported the situation to his superiors, the army commander Liang Xingchu praised him with the sentence "You kid is not small".
Why is that? This has to start with Song Huiguo's wisdom and courage. In the face of American GIs, he was in a hurry and took a series of measures to protect the grain and trucks.
Song Huiguo and recruit Song Jiang delivered 2 tons of grain to frontline soldiers in the middle of the night. They knew that the Chinese and North Korean troops, who did not have air control, would be threatened by enemy planes at any time, so they had to set off when it was dark and the vehicles could not drive with their lights on.
Along the way, their hearts beat faster and their nerves tensed, and they listened to the sound of enemy planes as they cautiously walked forward. Suddenly, the voice of the enemy plane got closer and closer, and the recruit nervously asked: "What should we do?"
Will they throw bombs? Although Song Huiguo's palms were sweating, his face was calm: "Don't panic, I think they haven't determined our identity yet, otherwise they would have fired a long time ago, let's wait and see what happens." ”
Although Song Huiguo understood that it was not common to use captured American-style trucks to transport goods, he decided to use this truck for transportation, considering that the vehicle had successfully avoided the enemy**.
Just before departure, their original truck suddenly broke down, so Song Huiguo switched to this American-style truck. During the long flight, he kept thinking and realized that if he went directly to his destination, he might attract the attention of enemy planes and expose our position, so he decided to change his route and drive into a small road.
Subsequently, after being followed by the plane in the air for a while, he finally left with peace of mind. However, while driving, Song Hye-kook discovers that the car has deviated from its original route, and they come to a completely unfamiliar place.
Song Huiguo immediately got out of the car to identify the direction, he looked around and found that there was a station not far away, which was brightly lit and crowded, and there were obviously many people.
Song Huiguo found that the front was not a friendly army, so he decided to evacuate. However, his car was stuck in a mud puddle and could not move. At this time, a large truck came from the rear and looked like it belonged to the US military.
Song Huiguo felt very nervous, tightly grasped the gun on his waist, and watched the movement of the vehicle behind him with full attention. His recruits were already stupefied and kept asking him what to do.
Song Huiguo tried everything to appease them and keep them calm, while also looking for a solution to the problem. Just then, the American GIs in the big truck heard them, and he got out of the car and walked to their car and began to speak in a foreign language.
Song Huiguo didn't know a foreign language, so he could only listen quietly. However, the American GI did not seem to find out who they were, and continued to speak in a foreign language. Song Huiguo suddenly thought that they were driving American-style trucks and wearing volunteer uniforms, but it was dark, and the Americans probably did not see their identities clearly.
Coupled with the fact that he wore an American-style steel helmet on his head that he had picked up on the road before leaving, the American GIs might have mistaken them for South Korean soldiers.
The American saw that Song Huiguo and his companions looked confused, thinking that they could not understand what he was saying, so he gestured to express it. He pointed to Song Hye-guk's wheel stuck in the mud, and then to himself, meaning they needed help?
Song Hye-kook immediately understood his intentions, but did not speak, just shook his head with his hand to indicate that he did not need it. Seeing Song Huiguo's refusal, the American soldier shrugged his shoulders and walked behind the grass to solve his personal problems.
Song Huiguo and his partners breathed a sigh of relief, they were not in danger for the time being, but they were not sure if the American soldier would suddenly change his mind. Suddenly, Song Huiguo had a new idea, and he told his partner: "It looks like our grain can't be delivered." ”
His partner asked, "So what are we going to do?" Is it empty-handed to go to the front? If you lose food, you will be punished. Of course, Song Huiguo was reluctant to go to the front empty-handed, he looked at the American truck behind him and said, "If we don't want to go to the front empty-handed, we have to take some risks and grab an American truck."
Look at that American truck, much newer than ours, and if we grab it, not only will there be trucks, but everything on the trucks will be ours. ”
In the back seat of the vehicle, a man was drowsy. After weighing up, the recruits agreed with Song Huiguo's idea. The two took advantage of the night to quietly approach the vehicle. Song Huiguo knocked the American unconscious with a punch, and the recruit gagged him with a towel and quickly took him hands and feet.
After that, Song Huiguo drove the car away quickly, and by the time the Americans came to their senses, the car had disappeared without a trace. When Song Huiguo was driving on the road, he felt that something was wrong behind the car, which was light and fluttering, not like military supplies.
He asked the recruit to gently lift the canvas, and the recruit was surprised to find that the car was full of sleeping American soldiers. Song Huiguo was stunned for a moment, but the recruits told him that the soldiers were still asleep.
Song Hye-kook told the recruits to be quiet and prepared for possible detection. He planned to drive the car to the volunteer camp when the soldiers woke up.
Song Huiguo's skills were skillful, and the American soldiers in the car were unaware, and they were all asleep. When Song Huiguo arrived at the volunteer camp, they were still asleep. "You're a brave boy! ”
In the camp, Song Huiguo did not dare to take it lightly, and immediately called for people to come and capture the American soldiers in the car. When these American soldiers opened their eyes, they saw that there were black holes in front of them, and they were so frightened that their souls were scattered, and the sleepiness they had just had just vanished in an instant.
They couldn't figure out why they woke up and were captured. What they didn't expect was that there were only two volunteers who captured them. When the instructor learned of this, he immediately put down his work and went to check the situation, and happened to meet the person who reported the statistics.
The debriefer reported to the instructor: "A total of 25 American devils were captured. Hearing the news, the instructor was ecstatic and walked quickly to the front of the truck.
Song Huiguo lowered his head and didn't dare to speak. Although he lost food and trucks, he did not have the courage to face the instructor, he said: "Instructor, I was negligent. The instructor smiled and said, "The important thing is that the person is okay." ”
But our soldiers are still starving. Song Huiguo expressed concern. "2 tons of grain for 25 Americans and a brand new truck is definitely a good deal, and I will not blame you, but I will ask your superiors for it. ”
The instructor said with a smile on his face, and he looked at the truck with great joy. A few days later, the instructor did ask for merit for Song Huiguo, and the regiment commander and political commissar praised him again and again for his calmness and resourcefulness after hearing his deeds, and called on the whole regiment to learn from him.
After hearing about his deeds, army commander Liang Xingchu said to his subordinates: "I have to meet this 'bold' automobile soldier." After seeing Song Huiguo, Liang Xingchu patted him on the shoulder and said, "You kid is really not small, they all say that I Liang Xingchu is bold, and you are even bolder than me." ”
Song Huiguo's heroic deeds in the Korean War were adapted into the Shandong Kuaishu "A Cart of Sorghum Rice", making his name widely known.
