After being shot for covering his comrades, Cai Xiaodong, who was seriously injured, still chased for more than ten meters. On December 4, Cai Xiaodong, deputy head of the law enforcement investigation team of the Xishuangbanna Border Management Detachment of the Yunnan Provincial Entry-Exit Border Inspection Station, who had achieved outstanding anti-narcotics achievements and had won the first, second, and third class merits, was only 38 years old when he stopped drugs outside the national border with his life after rescue was ineffective.

On the morning of December 8, the farewell ceremony was held at splashing water square in Jinghong City, Xishuangbanna Dai Autonomous Prefecture. People from all walks of life spontaneously flocked to the square to bid farewell to the hero. This time, Cai Xiaodong's public photo did not play mosaics.

On the night of December 4, the Xishuangbanna rainforest was more chilly. Inside the funeral home, Xiao Juan (pseudonym) was lying on the coffin, desperately trying to get closer to her other half. In the afternoon of the same day, in the process of arresting drug dealers on the front line of the border, Cai Xiaodong fought with gun dealers to the death and unfortunately died.

"Drug traffickers organize a large number of drugs from abroad and hide them on the front line of the border." On November 26, the law enforcement investigation team of the Xishuangbanna Border Management Detachment obtained clues from drug traffickers and immediately set up a special team to carry out investigations.

On December 4, Cai Xiaodong and the task force locked down the drug dealers' trading sites and immediately rushed to the border trail to set up an ambush and arrest them. At 13:52, three suspects carrying green backpacks entered the ambush area from the border line.

"Action!" The special case team struck decisively, and Cai Xiaodong rushed to the front as always. "Police! Don't move! Cai Xiaodong shouted. When the drug trafficking gang saw the situation, they immediately discarded the green backpack containing 31.8 kilograms of opium and fled in the direction of the country.

Suddenly, gunfire sounded, and Cai Xiaodong shouted a warning while protecting his comrades-in-arms who followed closely behind. "Bang bang bang..." The dense sound of gunfire resounded through the valley, and Cai Xiaodong was shot on his shoulders, legs and other parts that were not protected by body armor.

Cai Xiaodong fought back in pain, but because of his injuries, he fell to the ground after chasing more than ten meters. Comrades-in-arms rushed to the rescue, but he gritted his teeth and said, "I can do it, you go and arrest people!" ”

120 ambulances roared in, and medical staff launched all-out rescue, but did not pull Cai Xiaodong back from the death line.

Intense gunfights, disguises... The scenes in the film and television drama are just his real work

"Hundreds of missions, he always rushed to the front." Zha Zhongyong, deputy director of the Border Management Department of the Xishuangbanna Border Management Detachment, commented that Cai Xiaodong was "a desperate sanlang on the anti-drug battlefield."

"The captain often told us that his father was an old anti-drug policeman, and he couldn't shame the old man, he had to surpass him." Remembering his master, Cai Xiaodong's apprentice Wang Yun could not cry.

Intense gunfights, disguises... Looking at Cai Xiaodong's case handling video again, the footage in the film and television drama is cai Xiaodong's real work.

In July 2017, Cai Xiaodong learned in his work that someone was contacting overseas drug dealers to conduct drug transactions, and the amount involved was as high as 10 million yuan. Cai Xiaodong quickly reported the clues, and the detachment quickly set up a special case team to carry out investigation.

The investigation found that the overseas drug trafficking gang that had been in control before had suddenly not sold drugs to the mainland for a period of time, and it was very likely that it was hoarding goods in large quantities and waiting for an opportunity to smuggle them into the country. Cai Xiaodong led the investigators to follow up the investigation and found that someone had bought 15 motorcycles at a time. "When they entered the forest, the person in the back seat of the motorcycle was carrying a black backpack, and when they came out, the backpack was gone."

On the evening of September 29, Cai Xiaodong and investigators locked up suspects and trafficked in target vehicles.

In the early hours of the morning, a certain section of the border. The target vehicle slowly appeared, and when entering the scene of the investigation, it suddenly increased the throttle and forced the card, and the interception team and the arrest team forced the target vehicle to stop at the same time, and when the vehicle was not stable, Cai Xiaodong jumped out of the car in a big stride, holding a gun and shouting: "Police! Don't move! ”

The suspect vehicle tried to speed up and retreat, cai Xiaodong smashed the car window and reached for the car door, holding the suspect with a gun. When counting the drugs, Cai Xiaodong found that his right arm was cut by the window glass of the car, and the blood was directed.

After more than 3 months of hard work, they successfully arrested 2 criminal suspects and seized 169.7 kg of methamphetamine. Cai Xiaodong was awarded the first class for this.

In his 13-year border drug enforcement career, Cai Xiaodong has participated in 358 special anti-drug operations, investigated 247 drug cases, and seized 1609.56 kilograms of various drugs.

"The wishes and tasks you have not fulfilled, the children have done for you"

"He used to tell us that the most dangerous thing is when you catch and chase. But every time he performed a task, he always rushed ahead. Investigator Zuo Kang finished speaking, and the corners of his eyes were moist.

Cai Xiaodong's father, Cai Qiang, was an old policeman who fought on the front line of criminal investigation and anti-drug. When he was a child, Cai Xiaodong also did not understand what kind of work was more important than home in his father's heart. From the police for 15 years, the same birth and death as his father, the same early out and late return, let Cai Xiaodong understand the meaning of his father's hardships, duties and perseverance.

Engaged in anti-drug work for 13 years, Cai Xiaodong worked overtime and stayed up late, and children often did not see him for several days. Someone once asked, "What does your dad do?" The young son blurted out: "Overtime! ”

Cai Xiaodong is not disregarding his family, but he has been fighting with drug dealers for many years, and his time is often not his own. Before carrying out this mission, Cai Xiaodong took half a day off to take his wife and children to the underwater world to play. Not long after arriving at the scenic spot, the phone rang, and he said to his wife guiltily: "Daughter-in-law, you take the children to play, I have a task that cannot accompany you." ”

On December 4, on the day of Cai Xiaodong's mission, Xiao Juan posted 3 photos of her husband taking leave to play with her son a few days ago in the WeChat circle of friends at 1:16, and left a message: "Cherish the person who is very busy but has time for you, and cherish the person who is very poor but has given everything for you." I just didn't expect that the person she cherished would never come back again.

At 5:30 on December 6, Xiao Juan, who had not closed her eyes all night, posted a group of photos with family portraits in the circle of friends. The message read: "Every time you come back from a mission, you tell me that my daughter-in-law is too tired and I want to rest well!" Rest in peace! Brother Dong, please rest assured, there is me at home... Mom and Dad have me, I've been... Your unfulfilled wishes and tasks, your children do it for you! ”

Due to its proximity to the "Golden Triangle" of overseas drug sources, Yunnan's special geographical location has made Yunnan at the forefront of China's border anti-drug struggle. Since the establishment of the Yunnan Entry-Exit Border Inspection Station, 180 comrades have been buried at the border for the sake of the anti-drug cause. Netizen message: "Thank you for the hero to carry the weight forward and guard the tranquility of our lives." Heroes, go all the way! ”
