"You found out that no, Guo Fu this guy never disarmed with us!"
Xiao Li, a warrior who could not contain his curiosity, went around behind Guo Fu and hugged her, while the other fighters rushed up to play with Guo Fu, but Guo Fu reacted fiercely, crying and pulling out his knife, frightening the warriors from making any more trouble.
Soon after, Guo Fu was hospitalized due to illness, and under questioning by doctors and chiefs, Guo Fu still said her real name: Guo Junqing, and the body of her daughter who had been hidden around the soldiers for five years.
Guo Junqing is a daughter, so why should she eat and live with the warriors? And what happened to Guo Junqing, who was found to be his daughter?
First, fate
In 1931, Guo Junqing was born in a poor family in The Beijia Village of Thirty Zijia in Lingyuan County, Liaoning Province, and due to the poverty of the family, Guo Junqing had not eaten enough since he was a child, so his body was also very thin. When Guo Junqing was seven years old, the famine came, and in order to survive, she and her family were forced to flee the wilderness to beg for food.
After suffering from a long period of hardship and starvation, Guo Junqing's family went into exile in the grasslands of Inner Mongolia and lived in a broken house in the landlord Weng Dechen. In order to survive, Guo Junqing's father had to carry out long and extremely heavy farm work and the landlord's insults and beatings every day. Nevertheless, at the time of the annual harvest, the landlord would deduct his salary to increase the rent.

After a year of hard work, the money earned could not feed the whole family, and after struggling to survive for several years, Guo Junqing's father was finally forced to die by the landlord, which made Guo Junqing have an extremely deep hatred for the landlord.
But life goes on, and in order to keep her three-year-old sister alive, Guo Junqing, who is only 13 years old, takes on the burden of the family, shaves off her long hair and disguises herself as a boy to make a living as a mason. Sadly, on the way back from Guo Junqing's masonry, her three-year-old sister died of hunger and disease.
When she learned of this, she shouted to the heavens in resentment: God, when will there be a way for the poor to live!
The death of her father and sister, as well as the hunger that often accompanies her, reminds her that there is no way to live.
But soon after, in 1945, the Eighth Route Army arrived here.
Guo Junqing, who was on the verge of despair, heard the words propagated by the Eighth Route Army about fighting local tycoons, dividing up the land, and robbing the poor and the rich, which deeply attracted Guo Junqing, looking at the Eighth Route Army's lofty and independent style, Guo Junqing was very yearning, and she decided to join the Eighth Route Army.
In addition, there was another important factor that made Guo Junqing decide to join the Eighth Route Army, that is, to join the army to have enough to eat, which is a simple requirement, but for Guo Junqing, it is like a dream that has never been realized.
At that time, the Eighth Route Army did not recruit girls. In order to join, Guo Junqing shaved his short hair again, changed his name to "Guo Fu", and "Guo Fu" falsely reported that he was two years old, and eventually became a member of the Eighth Route Army.
In the film derived from Guo Junqing's deeds, the movie character is Guo Junqing, who dresses as a man
In the army, Guo Fu ate and lived with the soldiers, but whenever there were special circumstances, Guo Fu would find a suitable reason to separate from the soldiers and hide his female identity. In addition, Guo Fu also disguised his words and deeds as a person with a big grin, and his voice was deliberately rough, and no soldier had noticed anything unusual after enlisting in the army for such a long time.
After joining the army, the second problem guo fu encountered appeared, that is, physical training. Because she is a woman herself, and she is not full from snacks, she is not as physically as others.
For this reason, Guo Fu trained hard for a long time before he reached the average line of the troops.
Guo Junqing
In the army, soldiers not only have to practice physical fitness, but also master riding. Seizing the opportunity, Guo Fu spent more time honing her riding skills, and she regarded her horse as more important than her own life, often brushing and feeding. Once he had free time, Guo Fu got on his horse for training, and eventually Guo Junqing developed an excellent riding skill and became the best in the army.
Guo Fu, who excelled in horsemanship, was soon assigned to the cavalry communications class, where Guo Fu completed the tasks of the organization with outstanding results, and she repeatedly transported intelligence and conveyed orders under the eyes of the enemy.
But the most important of these was the mission in the great ravine.
Second, the scarf does not allow the eyebrows to be raised
On this day, Guo Fu was maintaining the horse as usual, she stroked the smooth hair of the horse, and her face naturally showed pity for the horse. Just then, the squad leader hurried over and said that there was an urgent order to be sent to the troops 30 kilometers away immediately, and it had to be delivered within 4 hours.
Hearing the squad leader's words, Guo Fu did not hesitate, and quickly mounted his horse with orders towards the big ravine. Along the way, the terrain is steep, and the sharp stones and mountains continue to appear in front of him, and Guo Fu is advancing rapidly in it with his superb riding skills.
Soon, it was dark. In order to complete the task in time, Guo Fu accelerated his speed, and finally under the darkness of the night, Guo Junqing arrived at the troops 30 kilometers away in advance and completed the task brilliantly.
But on the way back, Guo Fu found that the speed of the horses under him was gradually weakening, and when he was five or six kilometers away from the station, the horses were exhausted and died on the road.
At this time, the moon was dark and windy, with the faint starlight, Guo Fu walked in the endless darkness, she thought of the departure of the horse, her heart ached, but at the same time, she remembered the call of the soldiers in the station, what kind of emotion it was, and finally Guo Fu slowly walked back to the station with the saddle.
Only after returning to the station, Guo Fu fell ill with gynecology due to a cold during this journey.
Her outstanding performance this time was noticed by the chief, and soon after, Guo Fu was transferred to the third company and four squads of a certain unit of the Northeast Field Army as a squad leader.
Guo Junqing
Soon, Guo Fu ushered in her first battle on the battlefield.
With the Battle of Pingquan beginning, Guo Fu, the leader of the fourth squad, received the heavy responsibility of leading the fourth squad to capture the second mountain beam in the east of the city. This task was very difficult for the fourth squad at this time, the enemy was extremely well equipped, while the fourth squad had only a dozen old rifles and dozens of grenades, most of which were new recruits on the battlefield.
What is even more unfortunate is that at this time, Guo Fu has been feeling continuous pain due to the gynecological disease that he had previously fallen in the cavalry communication class, which is undoubtedly worse.
But Guo Fu was not afraid in the slightest, and after surveying the terrain, she and the deputy squad leader decided to adopt a two-sided attack, she led half of the fighters to charge in the north, and the deputy squad leader detoured to touch the mountain beam in the south.
After the plan was decided, Guo Fu began to command the soldiers to attack the enemy with the help of the terrain, although the weapons of the fourth squad were not strong, but Guo Fu's command was very meticulous, many fighters covered each other and advanced with each other, and for a time the enemy's artillery fire did not repel the soldiers of the fourth squad.
Gunfire burst out, gun smoke was everywhere, the white smoke of countless shells hung over the entire mountain beam, and the deafening sound of artillery fire constantly appeared around the soldiers, and Guo Fu and the soldiers fought with the enemy while waiting for the secret code set with the deputy squad leader: three rapid gunshots.
In the waiting for many years, finally, three rapid gunshots suddenly sounded behind the enemy, and Guo Fu and the soldiers in the north all bravely charged towards the mountain beam at the same time after hearing the sound, and the enemy was also confused at this time, not knowing which side to defend first.
Stormtrooper warriors
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Guo Fu raised his rifle and strafed at the enemy's position, while constantly rushing to the top of the mountain beam.
"Deputy Squad Leader!"
Suddenly, a sad and indignant voice sounded from the south, and Guo Fu, who rushed to the mountain beam, suddenly saw that the deputy squad leader in the south was hit by the enemy's bullets and fell in front of the position.
"Rush! rush! Avenge the deputy squad leader! ”
Guo Fu roared angrily, she threw away the gun in her hand, and launched a white-knife battle with the enemy in front of her, and the other warriors were also red-eyed at the moment, and one by one they raised their blades and rushed towards the enemy. At this moment, the whole fourth squad was like a tiger and wolf division, and they bravely and fearlessly engaged in white-bladed and hand-to-hand combat with the enemy.

The enemy troops on the mountain beam had been frightened by the indestructible momentum of the four squads of fighters, and they fought while fleeing, but how could the four squads of fighters let them go so easily, and finally with a casualty rate of 1:2, the four squads successfully completed the task of capturing the second mountain beam.
Later, Guo Fu also made a great contribution to the organization because of the wit and bravery of this command, and the regiment also awarded the title of "Combat Model Class" to the fourth class.
Guo Junqing
After this, Guo Fu also led the team to continue to participate in the Liaoshen Campaign, Guo Fu led the team to fight with the enemy many times with less, engaged in hand-to-hand combat, successfully captured several major positions of the enemy, and made great contributions to the victory of the Liberation War, but soon after, a predictable accident exposed Guo Fu's daughter.
III. "Modern Mulan"
To clarify why Guo Fu's identity was exposed, it is also necessary to know that the Northeast Field Army at that time often marched in a hurry to carry out tasks, and under the severe cold of early spring, the soldiers encountered a lot of terrain that needed to wade across the river. This time, Guo Fu's team was about to march across a river.
At that time, Guo Fu had already suffered a gynecological illness while suffering from a cold on a cavalry mission, and this time, she was going to cross the river with a fine layer of ice. The cold of early spring is self-evident, and in the cold water of the river is another kind of torture, and the cold that penetrates deep into the bone marrow when going into the water seems to freeze people's legs.

In order not to affect the speed of the march, many warriors will take off their clothes to cross the river, and then immediately put on their clothes to keep warm after reaching the shore, but Guo Fu cannot reveal her identity, so she wears thick clothes and pants and directly walks into the bone-chilling river and crosses the river.
For other warriors, crossing the river and changing clothes is at most cold for a while, but for Guo Fu, this cold is long-lasting, it is fully covered, the cold river water will be accommodated by clothes and pants, and the endless cold will silently cling to the bone marrow. I don't know how long it will take for the clothes to dry...
After completing this rapid march, Guo Fu's physical condition became more serious, and after the subsequent battle, her gynecological disease also reached the point where she had to be treated.
Guo Junqing
Finally, in April 1950, under the condition of illness and fatigue, Guo Fu was admitted to the hospital.
In the hospital, an attending doctor suddenly found out when examining Guo Fu how the soldier in front of him did not have a throat knot, and there was very little sweat on his legs, and he looked at the entire body shape, very much like a woman.
The doctor looked at the information card again, which clearly wrote the word male, so the doctor jokingly told Guo Fu that he was quite like a girl.
Unexpectedly, after hearing the doctor's words, Guo Fu panicked, and she covered up the past, so that the panicked action actually attracted the attention of the doctor.
The doctor wanted to undo Guo Fu's clothes for further examination, but Guo Fu was even more dead holding the clothes, saying that he would not take them off, if this would not be able to treat Guo Fu, in desperation, Guo Fu compromised, she said that she could let the female doctor treat.
Although there was something wrong with this request, the attending doctor was replaced by a female doctor.

In the ward, Guo Fu took off his clothes, and the female doctor was surprised by Guo Fu's female identity while worrying about Guo Fu's serious gynecological illness. After a simple treatment of Guo Fu, the female doctor immediately reported the situation to the chief.
In the end, under the questioning of the chief and the doctor, Guo Fu could only give the whole truth of the matter, she originally thought that such an act had violated the rules of the army and was to be severely punished, but she did not know how touching her deeds were, there was Hua Mulan in the past to serve in the army for her father, and now Guo Junqing joined the army to avenge her father.
Guo Junqing
In May of the same year, when the military commander He Jinnian learned of this incident, he praised: Guo Junqing is a hero of the towel, a contemporary Mulan, and the pride of our Forty-eighth Army.
After Hearing this, Chairman Mao also praised: Guo Junqing is a qualified communist fighter.
As the news of Guo Junqing's female dress as a man gradually spread throughout the army, all the soldiers were touched by Guo Junqing's deeds, and the soldiers were curious about what kind of a strong woman it was to be able to lead the team to make many battle achievements in five years and achieve great achievements once.
In September of the same year, Chairman Mao and Zhu De and other leaders received representatives of the fighting heroes, including Guo Junqing, who was invited to sit on the rostrum and gave a speech at the meeting.
The right one is Guo Junqing
In the end, Guo Junqing was awarded the honorary titles of "National Special Female Combat Hero" and "Modern Mulan", which is the only honor for Guo Junqing in the whole army.
4. Epilogue
After that, Guo Junqing went to the local area to work according to the organization's arrangement, and after serving as the director of the garment factory in Shandong and the deputy director of the Civil Affairs Bureau of Cao County in Shandong Province, she finally retired from Shandong and returned to Changzhou City, Jiangsu Province.
At this time, her physical condition was not good due to her early experience, but she did not forget the true color of the soldier and lived a simple life.
Until September 23, 1983, due to cerebral hemorrhage, Guo Junqing died of illness in Nanjing.
Guo Junqing was only 52 years old when she left, but the spiritual legacy she left behind will always inspire us in the world, the hero has passed away, and the title of "the only female combat hero of our army" will always accompany her.
I would like to pay tribute to Guo Junqing, modern Mulan, our heroine!
