Over the past ten years, the people's army has undergone an overall and revolutionary reform, and is forging ahead toward the goal of "building a people's army that obeys the party's command, can win battles, and has a fine work style, and builds the people's army into a world-class army."
In the eleventh year of joining the army, in the tide of army reform, in the magnificent journey of strengthening the army and rejuvenating the army, Sun Jiangtao, a "post-90s" Chinese armed policeman, has always insisted on assiduously training and preparing for war, and has continuously improved his combat effectiveness.
Born in November 1992, Sun Jiangtao is an instructor at the training base of the Hunan Armed Police Corps. In the past 11 years since he joined the army, he has painstakingly practiced shooting, tactics, enemy capture, fighting and other subjects, and has grown from a "martial arts boy" with high martial arts skills to a "gold medal martial arts leader" with excellent comprehensive quality and exquisite teaching level, bringing out more than 10,000 new recruits.
In November 2015, September 2017 and September 2019, Sun Jiangtao, who had excellent military qualities, and his comrades-in-arms went to Jordan, Romania and Kuwait to coach. When teaching in Jordan, a trainee proposed to "compete" with Sun Jiangtao in martial arts, and Sun Jiangtao demonstrated the fighting skills of the Chinese armed police on the spot - finding the right time to fall the opponent to the ground, riding on his neck and controlling the opponent's right hand, forming a "cross lock" and defeating the enemy with one move! Foreign students applauded one after another, vying to learn Chinese kung fu from Sun Jiangtao.
(In 2019, Sun Jiangtao and his comrades-in-arms were awarded the "Kuwait National Guard Medal of Honor" after they ended their coaching duties in Kuwait.) ）
With the experience of teaching abroad three times and winning glory for the country, in December 2020, Sun Jiangtao was awarded the "Top Ten Loyal Guards of China's Armed Police".
Since 00:00 on January 1, 2018, the armed police force has been under the centralized and unified leadership of the Party Central Committee and the Central Military Commission, and the leadership and command system of the Central Military Commission-Armed Police Force has been implemented, marking a new historical starting point for the construction and development of the armed police force.

On the morning of January 3, 2018, the Central Military Commission solemnly held the 2018 training mobilization conference, and Xi Jinping, general secretary of the CPC Central Committee, president of the country, and chairman of the Central Military Commission, issued a directive to the whole army. This is the training of the troops at the main venue of the mobilization meeting after receiving the training order.

For many years, Sun Jiangtao has always insisted on training troops and preparing for war. When he was a recruit at the age of 19, Sun Jiangtao practiced creeping in the rain and snow on nine cold days, with frostbite, swollen hands like buns, scars crawling and rotting countless times, still gritting his teeth and insisting on training; At the age of 22, Sun Jiangtao accidentally fractured the radius of his right hand during the backbone training of special operations cadres organized by the Hunan Armed Police Corps, and after half a month of recuperation after surgery, he was injured and "went out" with injuries, winning the first place in the training competition.
Train assiduously to prepare for war, lightly injured and not in the line of fire, and do your best to win victory! Sun Jiangtao said: This is the duty and mission of military personnel.
The second batch of recruits this year has been enlisted and a new journey is already under their feet. Sun Jiangtao said that he will continue to unswervingly be a "loyal guard" on the road to a strong army, cultivate more good fighters who "obey the party's command, can win battles, and have a good work style," and take the road of a strong army in the next ten years!
"Battle?" "Battle!"
When called, it can fight, and the battle will be won!
