On the afternoon of January 24, in the academic lecture hall of the Political College of the National Defense University, the leaders of the college read out the order signed by the head of the university to renew their current positions, and Guo Changshun, associate professor of the teaching and research department of the military organization work of the college, was impressively listed. There was a sudden discussion at the venue: It has been a month since Comrade Guo Changshun's death...
It was an order signed in early December last year and was only just announced. No one expected that just 3 weeks after the signing of this order, Guo Changshun suddenly passed away and could no longer complete his renewed position.
On December 23, 2018, a weekend, in order to return to the college to check the information, Guo Changshun suddenly felt heart discomfort on the way to the subway, fainted at Exit 8 of Caobao Road Station on Line 1 of the Shanghai Metro, and unfortunately died at the age of 46.
Love the army and chase dreams
Twenty-eight years ago, at the age of 19, Guo Changshun was admitted to the Hefei Artillery Academy of the Chinese People's Liberation Army with excellent results and became a soldier. After graduating from university, he successively went to the grass-roots level to exercise, became proficient in artillery command and position service, was familiar with the light vehicles of the gun frame, and used the shooting command freely. He was a platoon commander and was commended as an outstanding grass-roots cadre by his brigade for knowing and loving soldiers; when he was a deputy instructor, the "five-step method" of ideological and political education at the grass-roots level, which he loved his post and devoted himself to his work and explored in practice, was summed up and popularized by the group army; the quality of the factors was comprehensive, and after selecting and transferring organs, he was praised as "desperate three langs" because he was willing to work in a down-to-earth manner, sought truth and was more truthful, accepted tasks happily, and completed tasks resolutely, and was praised as "desperate three langs," which was well received by leaders and colleagues. His rich grassroots work experience made him have a strong interest in the political work of the army, and in 2004 he entered the Xi'an Institute of Political Science of the Chinese People's Liberation Army and studied as a graduate student majoring in party building in the army. After completing his studies, Guo Changshun came to the Shanghai Institute of Political Science of the Armed Police to participate in the course audition, and stood out among the 7 people and became a teacher in military uniform.
Projects, scientific research, papers, and textbooks appeared on Guo Changshun's schedule, and one after another was posted on the wall in front of his desk at home. Due to long-term overload, in 2016 he developed atrial fibrillation in his heart and was forcibly admitted to the hospital. After a slight improvement in health, he returned to work, completely forgetting that his heart had gradually become overwhelmed. At the end of July last year, he underwent abdominal cyst removal surgery, and in order to give good lessons to the students at the beginning of the school year, he devoted himself to the college course in early August. On 5 December, he once again left him in a hospital bed with a heart attack. After being discharged from the hospital, he was supposed to continue to recuperate at home according to the doctor's instructions, but he immediately returned to the college to work, working overtime for 3 consecutive nights until 2 o'clock in the evening. "I'm a soldier, I'm in good health, it doesn't matter." "You should do a little more in your uniform." He always used these words to comfort his family.
Heavy work takes up most of Guo Changshun's time, but in his spare time, he always goes to the Shanghai Songhu Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall in Baoshan Linjiang Park, where he leaves many figures of him explaining to tourists. He always chanted to the people around him: "One is not afraid of suffering, and the other is not afraid of death, and the spirit of death was, is, and will always be our precious spiritual wealth." In his daily teaching, he also mentioned more than once that he should conduct on-the-spot teaching, always be prepared to train troops and prepare for war, and organize the trainees to go to "Wang Jieban", "we should let the trainees feel that atmosphere and cultivate the spirit of daring to fight and win."

Revere the pulpit and teach the preaching
Opening Guo Changshun's WeChat circle of friends, the first dynamic is about the perception of the winter solstice, and the first sentence is like this: "The first part is written by me, and the next two paragraphs are seen from the Internet." Don't cheat, don't go with the flow, Guo Changshun is such a person. Guo Changshun touched everyone around him with his pure and upright soul and set an example by example.
Three kilometers, what does it mean? Breathless and heart racing. What if for a person who has suffered from atrial fibrillation for many years? What if it's shortly after surgery? These are really unimaginable, but they really happened to Guo Changshun. In October last year, less than three months after the operation, Guo Changshun took the college's physical fitness test. In the face of persuasion from everyone, he said, "The doctor said that I feel good and it is fine", "The physical fitness test is also part of the actual combat training, how can I not go up as a teacher?" "One lap, two laps... Even though he was unable to run anymore in the last two laps, he still insisted on using perseverance to complete the whole process.
At Guo Changshun's memorial service, groups of mourners came in droves, many of whom had academic arguments with him. Those who once fought with him were now weeping one by one: "He is a man who admits to death, is particularly true, and is not willing to accept defeat." "Academically, as long as he thinks there is a problem, he will say it, no matter who the other party is." "We've had a lot of debates academically, but we've had a particularly good relationship on weekdays."
Do a line of love a line of drill a line of fine one line. Since teaching, Guo Changshun has actively undertaken teaching tasks and taken the initiative to participate in the teaching of the main courses; the many special topics and many excellent courses he has taught have been affirmed and praised by the supervision experts and widely recognized by the vast number of students; he has actively studied modern educational ideas and teaching theories, assiduously and deeply studied teaching and research, and worked hard to improve teaching work; he has successively participated in the compilation of many textbook monographs such as "Political Work in Joint Operations," "Political Work on Duty of the Armed Police Force," and "Outline of the Outline for the Construction of the Army at the Grass-roots Level," and has published more than ten academic papers He insisted on conducting scientific research in combination with teaching, regarded scientific research work as the lifeline of the sustainable development of teachers, participated in the completion of 4 projects above the armed police force, won the second prize and the third prize of the military theoretical research achievements of the armed police force, and was also awarded the silver medal of the military academy education award. In his 28-year military career, he was awarded the third class merit twice because of his outstanding work performance.
Guo Changshun always keeps in mind president Xi Jinping's concept of "one person's effort is addition, and one team's effort is multiplication", and spares no effort to cultivate new faculty members, of which Chen Meina is the beneficiary. How to let Chen Meina, who studied military theory, step into the discipline of party building, Guo Changshun thought for a long time.
In 2013, under the repeated coordination and recommendation of Guo Changshun, Chen Meina entered his alma mater, Xi'an University of Political Science. Calling to ask if there were any life difficulties, study problems, and contacting her tutor to care about her classroom performance became part of Guo Changshun's daily routine. Help write lesson plans and recommend participating in competitions. Looking back on the days when she worked with Guo Changshun, Chen Mei Na was very grateful, she said: "Professor Guo is my guide. ”

Righteous and helpful
Xiao Han arrived with a little rain, which was originally a warm moment of "talking about poetry and wine and tea at night in the hearth, waiting for the reunion of relatives", but for Guo Changshun's family, it was only the sadness of "the dust covered the empty seat, and the lonely tent covered the empty bed".
"When I went home and pushed open the door, the my favorite vegetarian dumplings he prepared for me at the table had not yet been cooked, and the lotus root had only been hurriedly cut in half..." When Guo Changshun was mentioned, his lover was still sad.
Someone once advised her: "If you think about what is wrong with him, you may not think of him so much, so sad." "If there's something bad about him, I wouldn't be so sad." After saying this, she had long been unable to cry.
Guo Changshun in life is simple and simple. He is always keen to buy clothes for his wife and children, and the only few casual clothes in his wardrobe were bought more than a decade ago when he was newly married. On a business trip to a different place to teach, he obviously met the conditions for taking the first class seat, but he was still busy in the second class seat. The little couch in the office was where he took a nap, and a notebook was all he had asked the academy for.
In the eyes of his family, Guo Changshun is a good son, a good husband and a good father who loves his family. Born in Fugou, Henan, Guo Changshun is deeply nourished by the filial piety culture of the Central Plains, and when he is around his mother, no matter how busy he is at work, he will go home to cook for his mother, even if he is thousands of miles away from home, he will call her every day to greet him. Treating his mother-in-law, he is pure to filial piety, carrying the old man up and down the stairs, taking good care of him when he is sick; his wife is on a business trip, and the clothes and fruits in his bag have been prepared before leaving; on the homecoming bus, he is worried that the child is lonely at home, and always has to talk to his son on the phone. Neighbors, sons, classmates, parents, unit colleagues, renters, as long as Guo Changshun is mentioned, nine and a half out of ten people say good.
Wan Nengwu became a member of the former Armed Police Political Academy four years ago, and Guo Changshun was the first person to accept him at that time. From then on, no matter when and where, he could hear Guo Changshun's care, advice and ding. "Last month, Brother Guo also sent me a blind evaluation opinion for my master's degree, and joked that I was in my forties and it was not good to criticize me blindly."
In the impression of universal martial arts, what Guo Changshun worried about the most was the family of his friends and children. Guo Changshun is a good big brother in the hearts of friends, some people are embarrassed in the face of transfer, he will always talk to others to relieve emotions; some people encounter difficulties, life is embarrassing, he will always lend a helping hand, the ancient road hot sausage.
He is such a person, not good at words, not fond of publicity, silently caring for his family, caring for friends, leaving a little warmth in everyone's heart.
