After Song Xueyi, the five heroes of the Wolf Tooth Mountain, returned to his hometown, he did another feat of magnificent mountains and rivers, and the real thing was adapted

For many heroes in war, most people know only their feats, but they know nothing about their lives after they survive. And true heroes are not just not afraid of "sacrifice" on the battlefield. In the 1950s, Song Xueyi, one of the five heroes of wolf-tooth mountain, returned to his hometown of Beikong Village as a branch secretary after the liberation of Qinyang County in the Taihang Mountains. But here the mountains are dangerous, the crops rely on the sky to harvest, and the mountain people have a very difficult life.

On this day, the village cadres had a huge disagreement over the relief of the neighboring village, and many people did not know that the plots in the mountains were not only uneven but also full of large and small stones, and such land was laborious and low-yielding. In order to encourage the villagers to open up wasteland to fill their stomachs, Song Xueyi applied for 10,000 catties of pioneer grain from the county in the name of heroic models. However, at present, the neighboring Fengmen Village has suffered a disaster and wants to borrow 5,000 jin, but some village cadres say that special grain is used exclusively, and some say that the disaster in Fengmen Village is not caused by Beikong Village, in short, they do not agree to borrow grain. At this moment, a grocery man who was wandering the streets and townships entered the village, and Song Xueyi's younger son saw it and exchanged Song Xueyi's military merit badge for half a bowl of sugar cubes, which happened to be seen by the villagers. At the village committee, Song Xueyi saw that everyone was not saved by death, and his stomach was angry, so he thought that the grain was applied for by himself, and there was an extra quota of 5,000 jin, if everyone did not agree to borrow, he would return the extra 5,000 jin to the county as the reason, and finally lent the grain to the Fengmen Village.

The village was grateful and secretly put a bag of yam in his house. Song Xueyi returned to Beikong Village in 1947, and now it has been more than a decade, with two sons, a daughter with polio, and the only valuable thing in the family is an old sow, which is another hope that he wants the villagers to have meat to eat. When he returned home from the village committee and learned that his daughter-in-law had not yet returned from digging turnips for the pigs, he took his little daughter up the mountain to pick up his daughter-in-law. Song Xueyi's daughter-in-law was born poor, and she did not dislike the poverty of her family, she respected Song Xueyi as a hero and a good man, and knew that she had left a waist injury by jumping off a cliff, and she generally did not let Xueyi do heavy work. But this time is really tired, because of the water and soil problems in Beikong Village, the grass here is so bitter that pigs don't eat it, so every time they dig up the radish, they have to run for more than ten miles. Here, just when the family of three rushed home, there was an accident in the village, and the village chief was leading people to distribute grain, and the old man told him and Sledgehammer about the exchange of military merit medals for sugar. The two did not believe it and went to find Xueyi, Xueyi did not see it, Xueyi's younger son did see it, and told the two people that his father said that the card was useless, and the legs of the pad table were too low. Unexpectedly, the child's words actually caused an uproar, and a village of men, women and children gathered together to suspect that the bronze medal was fake, and the anti-Japanese cliff jump was also fake.

Sledgehammer is the most obedient to qi and righteousness on weekdays, seeing the villagers talking nonsense and rumors, as soon as his temper came up, he said that when Brother Xueyi returned and went to the county to open a certificate, he could block the mouths of everyone. Coincidentally, as soon as the voice dropped, the xueyi family of three returned. In the face of everyone's doubts, Xueyi did not want to explain anything, nor did he want to prove anything, but the daughter-in-law who could not see it insisted on going home to find a military merit badge. As a result, the military merit badge was not found, and a bag of yam was found in the village of The Gate, which made the matter more serious. The village chief said that there was something strange about this matter, the front foot borrowed grain, the back foot of his family had an extra bag of yam, and now the hero's brand let the children change the sugar, saying that what to learn to give everyone an explanation. Sledgehammer is even more fierce, saying that if Song Xueyi is a hero, his life is learned, but if he is a liar, don't blame him for turning his face and not recognizing people. Suddenly, Song Xueyi was angry and said, "I Song Xueyi still have to go to the county to open a certificate to verify the right body"? After saying that, he left angrily.

Since then, troublesome things have been one after another, first there are 3 villagers and Xueyi family to ask for land, saying that other people's land is grabbed by casting lots, Xueyi family's land is because Xueyi came back that year, the village took care of him as a hero, 3 villagers each gave up an acre of good land to him, and now Xueyi is not a hero, 3 families want Xueyi to return the land to them. When Xueyi learned of this, he immediately said that he should retire, but his daughter-in-law began to cry. At that time, the grain yield was about 300 catties per mu, and the mountainous area was even as low as 100 catties or even less, but a person's annual ration was 400 catties, which undoubtedly forced the family into a desperate situation. However, Xueyi is broad-minded, and he has survived the cliff jumping, what is this? A variety of acres of wasteland will always get wider and wider. Soon the village began to work and open up the wasteland, when the peasants worked for half a year and rested for half a year, and in the winter, it was basically a fire chat and a nest, which was the case for generations. Now Xueyi had to lead everyone to fight with the heavens and the earth, but some of the stones on the mountain were bigger than the doors, so how easy was it to dig up and smash these stones? As a result, it didn't take long for some people to feel tired and tired, and they would rather go home and drink thin paste than come back, but the pioneering grain had to be distributed to them according to the standard of 10,000 catties. Pioneering grain and pioneering grain, not pioneering and still wanting to receive grain, where there is such a thing in the world, as a branch secretary, Xueyi resolutely does not agree. As a result, several thorns not only pulled the topic to the fact that Xueyi was a false hero, but also had to learn to establish a written evidence, and if the Village did not return the grain, it would lose it.

However, the disaster is not alone, because the sows of the Xueyi family are difficult to give birth, not only the sows are dying, but only one piglet is alive. Originally, Xueyi planned that after the sow gave birth to the cubs, the villagers would raise pigs, be able to spend money in peacetime, and have meat to eat in the New Year, and now since the sows are not good, simply kill and eat meat, so that the big guys can celebrate the New Year in advance. In this way, the crowd began to raise their eyebrows again, and did not mention anything about the fake hero fengmen village borrowing grain, but burning fire and sharpening knives to kill pigs, and a joyous mood was almost over. I heard that the Xueyi family killed pigs and divided the meat, and the family had a share, and the whole village of men, women and children scrambled to trot all the way to the Xueyi family. Because the sledgehammer daughter-in-law wanted to return the acre of land given to the Xueyi family, she was embarrassed to go in person, so she let the child go. When the children arrived, the crowd had already dispersed, Xueyi only had a piece of meat left in his own home, seeing that the sledgehammer girl did not say a word, his eyes stared directly at the meat on Xueyi's hand, and also stretched out a bamboo basket, after hesitating, Xueyi poured the meat into the basket. The sledgehammer daughter said thank you and turned around and ran, while the first daughter-in-law in the house was reconciled, and the 3 children waited for the dumplings but there was no meat. Feeling that he could not stand his family, Xueyi found the pig's tail that was thrown away, and planned to burn the pig hair on it to continue to make dumplings for the child. At this moment, Lao Ziqu brought a bowl of dumplings, and he said that it was not interesting for a person to eat at home, and that he had come to this piece to eat a hilarity, in fact, to thank Xueyi for sharing meat for the big guys. In this way, the 3 children devoured meat, that kind of year-round only the Spring Festival can eat meat, all year round have to rely on the nest of grains to survive the difficulty, is the 80s after 90s and 00s can not experience, can not imagine a kind of hardship. After the children had a full meal, Lao Ziqu took his own old wine and drank a few drinks with Xueyi. During the period, we talked about the fact that the big guys are reluctant to open up the wasteland, and the doctrine says that they are unwilling to open up the wasteland, in the final analysis, it is lazy, so to rule the land, we must first cure laziness. Hearing a sentence from Xueyi to the root, the old man immediately said that he would do it later.

The next day, Xueyi had just handed over the 5,000-kilogram grain note to the village chief, and the sledgehammer whizzed, carrying the meat that his daughter took home and throwing it into Xueyi's house across the courtyard wall. It turned out that he still asked for grain to go to work, and the village chief said that the xueyi letters were all established and would not deceive everyone, but he not only said that he did not believe in the words, he did not believe in the words of the learning, and even suspected that Xueyi had not been a soldier, and it was difficult to say whether the troops were true or false. Doubting himself, Xueyi can endure, but now, Sledgehammer even doubts his own troops, Xueyi can't stand it, so he decided to compete with Sledgehammer. Xueyi then tied a waist plate and wrapped a thick piece of cloth at the end of the stick to prevent injury to the sledgehammer. Then the two men came to the wheat field, in front of the whole village of young and old, first tried to fight the bayonet, because the bayonet in addition to the need for explosive power but also need skills, usually did not practice the sledgehammer less than 5 rounds, was stabbed by Xueyi into the wheat straw pile. But the sledgehammer was not convinced, and compared with Xueyi wrestling, this Xueyi was miserable, because the wrestling depended on the fierce strength of the waist, xueyi waist was injured, not to mention, the strength was not as big as the sledgehammer, and the result was that it was fallen several times in a row until it could no longer get up.

In the blink of an eye, when it was time to distribute grain, a worker 2 pounds of grain, those who were diligent and worked a lot, one by one, their eyebrows were open and smiling. Those who do not work, who work less, are dejected one by one. The sledgehammer family received 6 pounds of grain because of 3 workers, resulting in the sledgehammer can only drink thin soup and water, but even so, the sledgehammer still does not work. The villagers who are not lazy here get up early and greedy, the wind and snow are unimpeded, and a bunch of lazy people gather at the mouth of the village to chat and talk about gossip, three days of fishing and two days of drying nets. On this day, the whole village went down to the ground to open up the wasteland, and the sledgehammer daughter-in-law and another woman came to Xueyi's house because the family could not open the pot. There was only the daughter of Xiao Er's paralysis in the family, and when the two of them entered the house to see that the child's lunch was only two potatoes, they turned over the jar and looked around for the grain of the Xueyi family. The grain was not found, but I saw the warehouse key hanging on the wall, and in the blink of an eye, the two people left in a hurry. Sledgehammer also quickly ate the flapjack, and learned that it was the grain secretly saved by his daughter-in-law, and Sledgehammer did not suspect it anymore. Soon it was time to distribute grain, but the village chief led people to count, two bags less grain, no windows unlocked or pried, two bags less grain out of thin air, there was only one possibility, that is, someone took the key to open the door and stole it. But the key was kept by Song Xueyi alone, thinking of this, several people decided to go to xueyi's house to see, but they happened to encounter the old man who was subservient and left from the Xueyi family. A few people were embarrassed to say that they doubted Xueyi, so they rummaged through the boxes and cabinets in the house by caring for Xueyi's daughter, and the grain was not found, but they found that Xueyi's daughter had a flapjack at the head of the bed, and when she left, she also found a broken nest in the pig food trough. Suddenly, the village chief sent people up the mountain and called back Xueyi, originally the big guy was extremely angry, but he saw that Xueyi was injured in the waist, and he led everyone to open up the wasteland on crutches, and it was difficult to say anything. When Xueyi learned that there were two bags less grain, the windows were not open, and the locks were not pried, and everyone had already visited his house, saying that his daughter was eating flapjacks and the piglets were eating nests, and he had to give everyone an explanation, Xueyi knew that everyone was suspicious of him. But he knew what the situation in his own family was, but now that he hadn't caught the thief, he couldn't explain it clearly, so he asked the big guys to say what to do, and as a result, everyone didn't say a word. Seeing that he had jumped into the Yellow River and could not wash himself, Xueyi trembled and shook his crutches three times and walked out of the village.

The next day, Xueyi came to the edge of the cliff alone, he did not want to rely on the hero's aura to get a penny of cheapness in the public family, but instead thought about the villagers everywhere, suffered and suffered and took the lead, but in the end he was suspected of being a fake hero, suspected of being a fake public welfare private guard and stealing. He could overcome the physical pain, but the pain in his heart was like a thousand arrows piercing his heart, chilling, and in despair he screamed in the sky. Unexpectedly, this voice actually attracted several children under the cliff to wave at him and shout at daddy. When he slowly put away his grief and came to his own wasteland, he saw his daughter-in-law show a look of admiration and asked him how his voice was shouted out, realizing that even though it was so difficult, his daughter-in-law and children still admired him so much, and instantly learned to have a sour nose and tears in his eyes. Since the 3 acres of land of the Xueyi family were reclaimed by the villagers, since then he has led the whole family day and night, braving the wind and snow and the severe cold, and grasping the reclamation of the land so that the livelihood will be settled in the next year. This scene happened to be seen by Lao Ziqu, seeing that the family was desperately opening up the wasteland, Lao Que was worried that Xueyi's daughter would not be able to eat, and this day he came to send her a nest head, and happened to see his disabled daughter lying on the bed and baking potatoes herself, which immediately frightened Lao Que. But when the old man came to the ground, kicked Xueyi down with one foot, and accused the two people of how to be a father, he found that the two adults and two children were also eating potatoes. When I asked, I learned that because I lost two bags of grain, the village deducted all the pioneering grain that their family should share. In an instant, the old man was so angry that he came to the village committee with great momentum and asked the village chief why he did not give food to others. But the village chief said that the grain matter was not clear, and now the grain distribution is unfair, hearing this, the old man held his breath and did not fight a place, and immediately asked rhetorically, people learn to eat their own grain, open up the public famine, so it is fair? After saying that, he threw the potatoes eaten by the Xueyi family on the table for everyone to see. I thought that people's hearts are all flesh, but after listening to his words, with conscience, they will also give food to Xueyi. However, the village chief still admitted to death, saying that the two bags of grain were not clear and resolutely could not be distributed, and the others were confused with big eyes and small eyes.

Disappointed, the old man had to push on the wheelbarrow to raise grain from the villagers, he shouted as he walked, old and young masters, the Xueyi family broke the grain, ate potatoes, he never opened his mouth to borrow anything, but now he wants to borrow grain for the Xueyi family, which family has stored grain, how much to give points, even if it is time to borrow one or two, but also said that Xueyi led everyone to open up the wasteland, but it is all for everyone. In this way, the Zhang family was a little bit of the Li family, and the old man raised a lot, and the sledgehammer daughter-in-law learned that the Xueyi family was so miserable by her, and she was extremely ashamed. But afraid that after the sledgehammer knew that she stole the grain, he blamed himself, so he carefully tested the sledgehammer and said that if the grain was not stolen by Xueyi, but by someone else, how would you treat that person? The sledgehammer was straight-hearted and fast, and when he heard that it was not stolen by Xueyi, he said at that time, whoever stole the grain, who hurt heaven and the earth, and caused the family to cut off the grain, if he knew who stole it, he would not use the hammer of the chisel millstone to hammer him to death. Hearing that the sledgehammer had to kill and injure the grain thieves, the sledgehammer daughter-in-law went back to the house and hanged herself, fortunately, her daughter's hind feet arrived home early, and only then did she find a life without danger, until then the sledgehammer knew that the grain was stolen by her daughter-in-law.

Realizing that he had wronged Xueyi, in the blink of an eye, he took his daughter-in-law to plan to return the remaining grain, but met Xueyi's eldest son who said that his father fainted on the mountain and could not move. Suddenly the sledgehammer quickly took people up the mountain to carry Xueyi back from the mountain, it may be that the sledgehammer felt that he owed too much to the Xueyi family, the next morning, he sent a millstone to Xueyi, and the back of the grinding disc was also engraved with a five-pointed star, and the name was beautiful, the medal on the millstone. Not only that, he also shouted that from today onwards, he would make up for all the 65 workers he owed, and since then, Beikong Village has opened up the wilderness and expanded the land, and the style has changed greatly. Not long after, someone from the county sent a new dress, informed Xueyi to go to Beijing to attend the heroic model conference, and said that Chairman Mao would personally receive him. On the day of departure, the whole village was sent to the village entrance, men, women and children.

Song Xueyi, one of the five heroes of Wolf Tooth Mountain, a native of Beikong Village, Qinyang County, Jiaozuo, Henan, returned to the village after the liberation of Qinyang in 1947 to serve as the secretary of the village party branch, and died in Zhengzhou in 1971 due to overwork. Returning to his hometown for more than 20 years, Song Xueyi has never been proud of his achievements, always maintained his heroic nature, led the villagers to work hard to start a business, and made a huge change in the appearance of Beikong Village. After surviving, Song Xueyi did not take personal enjoyment as a goal, but from the battlefield to his hometown, from a strong man to a farmer, and did not mention anything about his feats of that year. The film restores that difficult era, telling the story of the hero who stands on top of the sky outside the battlefield, does not move, opens up the wilderness and resists disasters, and selflessly dedicates himself.

Before the reform and opening up, the older generation of people went through hardships and tribulations, they had to fight with the heavens and the earth, fight with people, fight against hunger and cold, it may be this harsh natural environment, and extremely difficult life, tempering many people's hard and simple, self-reliant, gratitude and gratitude of the fine qualities. Therefore, the significance of this film in the present, in addition to pursuing the hero's past, is that we have not experienced how people who can only eat meat until the Spring Festival and wear a new dress for several years do not yield to life, do not yield to fate, how to always put the interests of the country first at any time and anywhere, patriotic with practical words and deeds, practice the value and meaning of life, and be one heart for justice, and the world is worthy.

"Medal carved on the stone mill" is directed by Liu Xiaoning and starring Liu Peiqi, released in 2016.
