After graduating in 1981, he was promoted to commander of the 121st Division of the 41st Army.
In 1983, at the age of 47, Li Xinliang was promoted from division commander to commander of the Guangxi Military Region.
After taking up his post in the Guangxi Military Region, he never forgot his original intention, kept firmly in mind the purpose, always remembered the instructions of the party and the army, and grasped well all the work of the military region.
At that time, the Guangxi Military Region was facing the forefront of the struggle against Vietnam, and after our army withdrew from Vietnam on March 5, 1979, the Vietnamese army gathered 500,000 troops along our border, and often harassed the border areas of Lao Shan, Zheyin Mountain, Faka Mountain, and Koulin Mountain, which seriously interfered with china's economic construction work.
Therefore, Commander Li Xinliang often went deep into the front line of the Sino-Vietnamese border to guide and inspect the work, calling on the officers and men on the garrison to take the cat's ear hole as their home, establish the idea of taking root in the southern Xinjiang border area, strike hard at the Vietnamese aggressors, make more meritorious contributions, kill more enemies, add color to the motherland, and win glory for their families.
The soldiers guarding the border very much welcomed Commander Li Xinliang to inspect the positions; Commander Li's speech was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, full of appeal and appeal, and could arouse the mood of the battlefield; he used the loyalty of the Shandong Han to drive the soldiers' enthusiasm for war; whenever Commander Li came to the front line to inspect the work, the officers and men were in high spirits, morale was high, and they rushed to the front line screaming, and the Vietnamese army was beaten to a terrible end.
Once, the general went to the front to inspect the work, the car and the guard car drove out of Nanning City, towards the Laoshan area on the border between China and Vietnam, at that time there was no highway, the car was driving on the rugged national highway, the general's car drove for several hours, the general said to the driver, everyone is tired of sitting in the car, find a spacious place in front of the stop, let everyone convenient and convenient, rest their feet, take a break.
The car stopped near the city's national highway, and the general and the entourage in the guard car got out of the car and found a nearby grass, where everyone sat and rested.
The general saw that there were also vendors selling on the side of the road, and instructed the guard squad leader to buy melons for the entourage to quench their thirst, and everyone ate while chatting about what they saw along the way.
Xiao Liti, a guard soldier, asked the general to tell everyone the story of the Sino-Vietnamese counterattack and battle, and the general said to everyone: "When you go to the front line to fight, you must have a smart brain, your legs and feet should be fast, you must be quick to execute the intentions of your superiors, and you must bite the enemy like a fierce tiger pounces on food." ”
At this time, from the city next to the national highway came a group of hooligans, they had just finished eating in the restaurant, drank wine, burped, a body of alcohol, and came to the national highway to prepare for a ride.
Seeing that there were two military vehicles parked on the side of the national highway, these hooligans drank wine and could not recognize the scales, so they stepped forward to talk to Xiao Hu, the driver of the general's car, and Xiao Li, the driver of the guard car, and asked them to give them a ride and send them to the intersection in front.
Xiao Hu and Xiao Li looked at them like rogues and rogues, and they were full of alcohol, so they ignored them.
The hooligans then looked for trouble, borrowed alcohol to get mad, and insulted the two drivers.
Who are the two drivers? Both of them are elites who have followed the general to fight on the Sino-Vietnamese front, and they have worked with the Vietnamese army on the Vietnamese battlefield with real swords and guns, and they can still be afraid of your dozen hooligans and rogues, and the two drivers are not willing to show weakness and argue with these dozen hooligans.
General Li Xinliang was talking to the guards about the war on the Sino-Vietnamese front, when he heard a noise in front, looked forward, and said to the guards: "There is a situation, everyone come with me." ”
The general led the guards to the front, and the general asked sternly, "What are you?" Why stir up trouble here?
A leader of the goons stepped forward and said, "We are the land snakes in this area, and this area is our world, what's wrong?"
The general asked, "Why are you insulting our driver?" ”
The leader of the hooligans said, "You two drivers are crazy, and I will discipline them for you." ”
The general said: "It seems that you are quite arrogant, my driver has done something wrong, and it is not your turn to point fingers here, what are you counting?" ”
The hooligans were ashamed and angry, and with the help of the wine, a group of people talked nonsense: "You are a person, like your driver, the cattle are very good, no, let's compete." ”
The general said, "You stinky boys, how dare you?" Dare to call me out. ”
The rogue leader said arrogantly, "I challenged you guys today, how's it going?" ”
The general was furious and said to the guards, "Teach these miscreants a lesson."
The guards and fighters had long been unaccustomed to the behavior of this gang of hooligans, and when they heard the general speak, they rushed forward, grabbed the hooligans and started fighting, and in a short while, the hooligans were beaten by the well-trained guards and their faces were swollen, and they were defeated.
After capturing all the hooligans, the guards ordered them to crouch in a row on the side of the national highway with their hands on their heads.
The general said to this gang of hooligans, "You gang have been unlearned all day, picking quarrels and making trouble, and today I will cure you of this problem." ”
The hooligans begged the general to spare them, saying that they would not dare to mess with them again next time.
The general said: "Originally, I was going to send you to the police station, and I will forgive you once, thinking that you have just drunk wine and borrowed wine to make trouble, I hope that you will reform yourself and become a new person, you are still young, and the road of life is still long.
The goons didn't care if they wanted to or not, but on the surface they all nodded their heads and said yes.
The general said, "Hurry up! ”
The hooligans crawled toward the intersection in front of them, lest their parents lose two legs.
The general said to the guards, "Just now we have not yet reached the front line, we have fought a battle first, and you have all fought this battle very well, well fought, and deserves praise. ”
The fighters boarded the bus one after another and drove with high emotions towards the Laoshan area on the border of Guangxi.
