Thousands of miles of connections, so that more officers and soldiers "into" the military blog

Zheng Jieling, an engineer at a training base of the Army in the Southern Theater, is a die-hard military fan, and visiting the Military Museum of the Chinese Revolution in Beijing has always been his dream. However, after more than 10 years in the army, the station and hometown are more than 2,000 kilometers away from the capital, and he has never had the opportunity to visit the military expo.

In southern Xinjiang, there are many military blog "enthusiasts" like Zheng Jieling, but because of the long distance and insufficient strategy, their idea of going to the military expo to study at the exhibition has not been realized for a long time.

However, things quickly took a turn for the better. In November this year, at the second theoretical seminar for officers above the rank of colonel in the Southern Theater Army, the Theater Army Propaganda Office, which organized the seminar, planned to use the "Military Flag Fluttering" App to open a "cloud classroom" to realize the "military bo dream" of more officers and men through thousands of miles of connections.

"If the mountain doesn't come, I'll go." According to Zhang Shouwei, director of the Propaganda Department of the Army Political Work Department of the Southern Theater, the cloud classroom made full use of the precious exhibition resources of the military museum to make the historical resources come alive and take the initiative to go to the side of officers and men, which not only opened up the vision of officers and men, enriched the education classroom, and further improved the effect of learning history and casting souls.

Zheng Jieling is an important participant in the development of the "Military Flag Fluttering" App, thinking of being able to "walk into" the military museum with the help of his own platform, he was the first to sign up to join the technical team of this live broadcast to fully ensure the smooth and smooth flow of the "Cloud Classroom".

The live broadcast of the barracks is not a new thing for some grass-roots officers and soldiers, but for the military museum that has been facing the public and exhibiting on the spot, the online exhibition through the troops is still the first time.

"It is our honor to serve our exhibition to the troops!" Liu Zhonggang, deputy director of the Military Museum, said excitedly after learning about the plan of the Southern Theater Army to broadcast the "entering" military blog live. They not only sent excellent commentators, but also provided a large number of pictures and video materials without reservation, fully supporting the launch of the "Cloud Classroom".

Selected as the docent of this "cloud classroom", Zhao Nan believes that he is a "lucky one". Although she has received thousands of visitors, in order to be able to present the best live broadcast effect for officers and soldiers thousands of miles away, Zhao Nan still made a lot of preparations in advance, she and the director team repeatedly discussed the process and audition, and practiced several times.

Thousands of miles connected to the Military History Museum, and tens of thousands of people took a class together. The "cloud meeting" set up a live broadcast room at the Beijing Military Museum, set up a main classroom in the army organs in the theater, set up sub-classes in various company-level units, and connected grass-roots units such as the "DaduHe Company" and the "White Blade Fighting Hero Company" in the classroom.

Because of the multi-party participation and wide range of involvement, Cheng Wenxiong, standing in the position of the anchor of the "Cloud Classroom", knows that although the protagonist is not himself, he has a heavy responsibility and plays a key role in the "master of the control field". Cheng Wenxiong is an instructor in a coastal defense brigade of the Southern Theater Army, engaged in political work for more than 10 years, and has rich experience in political education. He watched the virtual exhibition hall of the military museum several times, sorted out the history of the party and the military, and also conducted in-depth investigations among officers and soldiers in advance to ensure that he could see the six roads, listen to the eight directions, and control the whole field during the live broadcast.

The theme of the "Cloud Classroom" is "Advancing Under the Banner of the Party - The People's Army Celebrates the Centenary of the Founding of the Communist Party of China", which is rich in content and profound in significance. In order to be able to respond to the questions and messages of officers and men in a timely manner, the "Cloud Classroom" also specially invited Pan Hong, a well-known expert in party history and military history and professor of the Academy of Military Sciences, to interpret the scene for the officers and men to ensure that the online exhibition is not a sloppy flower, and the purpose of teaching "the soul of the army in the military history museum" is achieved.

At the beginning of the live broadcast, when the solemn and mighty Chinese People's Revolutionary Military Museum building appeared on the screen, the senior soldiers of a certain border defense brigade of the Southern Theater Army stationed on the border line of southern Xinjiang could not help but straighten out their sitting posture.

Other officers and soldiers who "walked into" the military blog through the "cloud classroom" and Wen Ran were already deeply attracted from the first moment they entered the classroom.

Directly through the grassroots, let the red resources go out of the military history museum and approach the officers and soldiers

"Mao Zedong proposed at the 1987 meeting that 'it is necessary to know that political power is obtained from the barrel of a gun'..." When the narrator talked about the "creating and developing the people's army" unit, anchor Cheng Wenxiong looked at the bullet screen and the backstage message and pressed the pause button of the visit in time.

When the officers and soldiers visited online, Cheng Wenxiong was not idle, he always paid attention to the reflections of the officers and soldiers through the App to ensure that they could interact in time and improve the visiting experience. In the message, he saw that the officers and soldiers were very interested in the story behind the phrase "political power comes out of the barrel of a gun", so he handed over the class to Professor Pan Hong in time.

"Mao Zedong's speech grasped the essence of the Chinese revolution, and in the ensuing armed uprising against the Kuomintang, the Chinese Communist Party played the banner of its own independence..." After Professor Pan Hong's careful interpretation, the officers and soldiers had a clearer understanding of the relationship between the army and the party. Watching the doubts of the officers and soldiers solve, the anchor handed the class back to the live broadcast narrator.

"These cultural relics silently record the revolutionary years, the loyalty, faith, struggle and spirit of the revolutionary predecessors." When visiting the landscape of "decisive victory over the command of the party in a thousand miles," Chen Yang, a sergeant of an artillery brigade of the 75th Group Army, followed the explainer to look carefully and listen carefully; the radio station used by Mao Zedong commanding thousands of troops and horses made Chen Yang excited, as if the radio station had stepped out of the military museum and came to the officers and men, and the smoke clouds of history appeared in front of his eyes.

"In the years of the revolutionary war, the Party Central Committee and Chairman Mao used the radio station of 'Tick-tock, Tick-tock' to command the front line, strategize and win victories for thousands of miles, and now the company's various equipment is more advanced, the 'steel' and 'qi' should be more sufficient, and the confidence and confidence in winning the victory should also be more sufficient!" Chen Yang couldn't help but send out a long barrage of bullets. "Only by letting the high-quality red resources of the military expo truly enter the hearts of officers and soldiers, can the online visit be 'worth the trip.'" Looking at the bullet screen on the screen, Professor Pan Hong sighed.

"Among the 100 battle flags that were inspected by the motherland and the people in front of Tiananmen, the war flag of the 'White Blade Fighting Hero Company' of the Theater Army flew in the wind!" When the voice of the anchor reached the ear, Sun Zhaohui, who watched the live broadcast in the "White Blade Fighting Hero Company" Lianshi Museum, was even more upright. Sun Zhaohui, the 45th company commander of the "Cloud Classroom" and the "White Blade Fighting Hero Company", is not only an audience, but also a special guest.

"Let people with ideals talk about ideals, people with spirits talk about spirits, and people with stories tell stories, so that they can be more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people." If it is said that the online visit to the military museum is to let officers and soldiers better touch history, then reliving the history of their own troops can make officers and soldiers resonate even more. In order to make the officers and men of the theater army watching online feel a sense of belonging, Cheng Wenxiong, the anchor who did his homework before the class, took the initiative to contact the "White Blade Fighting Hero Company", and when he visited the company battle flag, he invited the company company commander Sun Zhaohui to tell the story behind the honorary battle flag for everyone.

"On the battlefield, we relied on the spirit of fighting with bayonets to make each person less than a gun, and to completely annihilate the well-equipped Japanese army's Dengmu detachment..." Under Sun Zhaohui's vivid explanation, the officers and men better understood the connotation of the phrase "the flying battle flag is picturesque, and the blood of the hero stains it red."

"The battle flag in the military museum echoes with the battle flag in the Company History Museum, and you can feel the thickness of the company's honor even more." After the live broadcast, Sun Zhaohui said emotionally. However, he believes that the heroic history of the "White Blade Fighting Hero Company" is not only the spiritual totem of his own company, but also a precious wealth in the red blood of the theater army, which is worth stepping out of the Company History Museum and entering the hearts of more comrades in friendly and neighboring units. At the same time, he was also ready to invite the red resources of friendly neighboring units into the company.

"The scenery here is very beautiful, but it is not so simple to reach this boundary monument..." Visiting the last unit of "Faithfully Fulfilling the Mission and Mission of the Army in the New Era", in order to let the officers and soldiers personally feel the supreme glory of the military and the heavy responsibility of defending the country, the live broadcast cut to the No. 153 boundary monument of the motherland located on the Menglin Mountain in Cangyuan County, Yunnan Province.

When the patrol officers and soldiers in the picture climb the steep cliffs, because there is no place to get off their feet, they can only stick their feet into the soil, grasp the roots of the trees with their fingers, and climb up little by little. Seeing this, a barrage of positive energy bursting out appeared densely: "Great rivers and mountains, no land" "This 'border pass trip' let me know how great my little self is" "We stand there, the people behind us can sleep peacefully..."

Look back at history and travel through the "corridor of military history" that breaks time and space

"Just as the instructor said, only by casting 'listening to the party and following the party' into the soul can the people's army be as strong as a fortress and win one brilliant victory after another." After more than an hour of "cloud visit," Corporal Hu Jiewen of the "Sixth Company of Hard Bones" of a certain brigade of the 74th Group Army said with deep feeling.

When he visited the exhibition wall of the revolutionary spirit in the military museum, Hu Jiewen saw the "hard bone spirit" at a glance, and he immediately issued a barrage: "'Hard bone spirit' yyds!" As a post-90s soldier, he found his own coordinates in the thick river of military history.

Hu Jiewen's brigade has a rich history and outstanding military achievements, and is a famous Red Army brigade and a hundred general brigade. In the brigade barracks, there are the Red Army health company that is "skilled, serves officers and men, focuses on actual combat, and guarantees winning wars"; there is the Red Army battalion, which was personally created by Marshal He Long and participated in more than a thousand battles; and there are also the seven sharp knife companies that have been awarded the honorary titles of "Hero Company of Yanmen Pass Ambush Battle" and "Night Tiger Company".

"We came from the Nanchang uprising and the Honghu Su district." After the live broadcast, under the leadership of instructor Feng Jie, Hu Jiewen and the officers and men of the company returned their eyes from the military bola in the screen to the brigade history corridor in front of them, crossed from military history to the rich history of the brigade, and continued to receive red education and draw spiritual strength in tracing back to the roots.

"The company used bayonets to kill the heroic name of 'hard bones', and gave birth to heroic models such as the special combat hero and the stabbing hero Liu Sihu." Walking out of the brigade history corridor, Feng Jie led the officers and men to the company's honor wall, continued to trace the footsteps of the ancestors, and came to an "encounter" with them across time and space. Feng Jie said with deep feeling after the visit: "Military history, travel history, and continuous history... A 'corridor of military history' has been formed to open up a tunnel of time and space. ”

"This 'cloud classroom' not only opens up time, but also opens up space." A "military history corridor" that opens up a time and space tunnel also makes anchor Cheng Wenxiong have different thinking. "During the live broadcast, the officers and soldiers walked into the Military Museum in Beijing, into the 'Dadu River Company' Honor Room in Huizhou, Guangdong Province, and into the Martyrs' Cemetery in Malipo, Yunnan... A 'cloud classroom' fulfilled the dreams of many officers and soldiers. As a political teacher, how to do a good job in the next article of "Cloud Classroom", Cheng Wenxiong already has a plan in mind.

"It is very difficult for officers and men at the grass-roots level to get out of the small circle of their own companies, especially in a highly dispersed company like border and coastal defense." Serving in the frontline of coastal defense for nearly 20 years, Cheng Wenxiong said with deep feelings. Although there are well-known heroic companies such as the "Zhongyuanshan Hero Company" and the "South China Sea Outpost Steel Eighth Company" in the brigade, the company and the company are separated from each other by the sea and are independently stationed; because of geographical restrictions, different tasks, and other reasons, most officers and men have not been able to take a look at the brother company until they retire, and their own red resources have become "other people's companies."

"Compared with watching videos and reading reports, the 'cloud classroom' of real-time interaction and active control of rhythm can have a better impact on officers and soldiers." Therefore, Cheng Wenxiong hopes to bring the concept and experience of this "cloud classroom" back to Haiphong, and let more officers and men of the brigade enter the "Zhongyuan Mountain Hero Company" by live broadcasting the "cloud classroom".

"I want to see their barracks", "I want to see their food", "I want to see their training"... When Cheng Wenxiong announced his plan, the officers and men began to discuss it. Looking at the interest of the officers and men, Cheng Wenxiong thought to himself: The "Zhongyuanshan Hero Company," which was also inspected in the military parade marking the 70th anniversary of the founding of New China, will explode into a wave of red in the whole brigade.

"From Beijing to Guangxi, from Guangdong to Yunnan... From the military history corridor to the cultural square, from the hero light box to the heroic model monument, from the company honor room to the squad honor cabinet... Different forms of red resources in different regions and different time domains can be integrated in the 'cloud'. Officers and soldiers do not understand where to point and where to like, and where to cut, so they have realized the "flow" of the military history museum and the sharing of red resources. The leaders of the Army Political Work Department of the Southern Theater believe that after the promotion of this "military history corridor," it will certainly be able to open up the time and space tunnel where the soul of the study of history is cast, so that the vast number of officers and men can better remember their original mission and strive to be the red successors.
