The people's soldiers drove tigers and leopards, risking life and death to ensure peace; Why the battle flag is picturesque, and the blood of heroes stains it red; Why the earth is always spring, and the life of heroes blossoms.
- "Heroic Hymn"
October 25 this year is the 72nd anniversary of the Chinese People's Volunteers' War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and on the occasion of the anniversary of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, I recommend a red film "King Kong River". The film will be released in 2020, starring Zhang Yi, Wu Jing, Deng Chao, etc.; The film takes the last battle of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea in 1953 before the "Battle of Jincheng" as the background, telling the story of the volunteers who completely lost air supremacy and bombed several times indiscriminately, the anti-aircraft artillery units and the enemy planes that bombed the bridge launched a fierce ground-air battle, covered the engineering troops to build bridges, and then ensured that the army and supplies were smoothly delivered to the front line of the Jincheng Campaign.
"King Kong River" is divided into four perspective narratives, namely "bridge crossing troops", "enemy aircraft pilots", "anti-aircraft gunners" and "King Kong River Bridge", restoring the process of "bombing the bridge - repairing the bridge - crossing the bridge" on the night of the battle on July 12. The whole film adopts a progressive structure of "points-points-points-total", and the intensity of the battle scenes gradually increases with the change of narrative angle, and the perspective of "anti-aircraft gunners" shows more gripping the tragic and tragic picture of our anti-aircraft artillery units fighting against air at that time.
There are two parts of the whole film that are most memorable and shocking. The first clip is that the gunner Guan squad leader gave up the opportunity to escape after shooting all the shells; Without hesitation, he picked up the signal gun and fired signal flares, and maximally locked on to the target of the enemy aircraft for the hidden No. 2 anti-aircraft gun position, while dying honorably. The whole action process is only a few seconds, and it also flashes in the film without special treatment; The squad leader who fired the signal flares left us with a great and resolute back, but in the next frame, the flesh and blood were beaten into a blood mist by the enemy plane; I sincerely feel how sincere and ardent our volunteer soldiers are in devoting themselves to the revolutionary cause, and how irrevocable they are.
The second segment that I remember vividly is also the climax of the film, as my comrades are hit by enemy planes one after another, holding the determination to avenge their brothers even if they die; Gunner Zhang Platoon Commander, full of provocation, lit a bonfire near the gun emplacement in the dark night, exposing the position of the anti-aircraft artillery and attracting enemy fire to cover the construction of the bridge; Without cover, they braved a hail of bullets, biting the enemy planes, and finally died with the enemy planes. At that moment, I was infected by the hero's spirit of fearless sacrifice and inspired by the hero's courage to show the sword.
At the end of the film, when the J-11 fighter escorted the remains of the martyrs of the Chinese People's Volunteers to Shenyang Taoxian International Airport, the contrast like time and space shuttled appeared in front of my eyes. Once upon a time, China, which was backward in weapons and equipment and weak in air force, and China that was repeatedly bullied by foreign countries, is now striving to catch up with and surpass developed countries in science and technology, military, economy and other aspects. Volunteer soldiers defended their families and countries, resisted aggression, resisted foreign humiliation, and were brave and righteous; These "loveliest people" are the "most respectable people" and "the most memorable people" of the Chinese nation. As the 72nd anniversary of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea approaches, let us pay tribute to the loveliest people!
