Recently, Li Chunlei, the ninth generation inheritor of the Li family's soil reserve five fine wines, personally came to the door and presented the wine to Wang Zhikun and Wu Zhanshan, heroes who won the "second-class merit" in the defense of Laoshan.
The Li family reserves five fine wines, named for the sacrifice of heroes. According to historical records, during the Qianlong period, when Li Shijie, the shangshu of the military department, was the governor of Sichuan in his early years, he had a personal relationship with the Li family, and he had a soft spot for the wine brewed by the Li family and was particularly appreciative. Once, when he was proudly drunk, he called his wine the wine of five beauty, and chanted the verse "There is Shu Qianshui in the south, and Li Wumei in the north", and inscribed the four words "Five beauty for wisdom" to the Li family with a pen. Since then, Li Jiatu has been named Wumeijiu. Since then, successive generations of the Li family have had the custom of picking wine and honoring heroes during the Dragon Boat Festival.
Li Chunlei, the ninth generation inheritor of Li Chunlei, a national sommelier, a member of the Sanhe CPPCC Committee, and the vice president of the Sanhe Intangible Cultural Heritage Association, has adhered to the good customs of the Li family for many years. Because of his great respect for the hero, on the morning of the 17th, he once again loaded five fine wines and personally went to the door to present the wine to the heroes.

First stop: Li Chunlei first came to the home of Wang Zhikun, the winner of the "second-class merit" in the defense operation of Laoshan, and presented him with a box of five fine wines and other gifts. Wang Zhikun, squad leader of an artillery company of the People's Liberation Army. In 1986, he began to conduct combat training in the defense of Laoshan. Immediately after entering the defensive position, he and his comrades defended the post, only more than 10 meters away from the enemy position, and squatted in the cat's ear hole every day under extremely difficult conditions. During the three months of defensive operations, he repeatedly cooperated with his comrades in precision artillery attacks, repelled enemy defensive positions, and was seriously wounded in the head and knee during an enemy shelling, but still persevered in the task. Under the repeated blows of Wang Zhikun and his comrades against the enemy army, they defended our position very well. Therefore, in 1988, he was credited with "second-class merit" by his unit. Seeing Wang Zhikun, who was tall and heroic and was still working in a certain unit in Shizhi, Li Chunlei stepped forward quickly, held the hero's hand tightly, explained his meaning after introducing himself, and presented five fine wines and other gifts to the hero on the spot. Subsequently, Li Chunlei learned from the heroes about their fighting against the enemy army on the battlefield in those years and their current work and life, and said to Wang Zhikun gratefully, "We admire heroes, that is, we should learn from heroes' heroic dedication and the revolutionary spirit of defending the country and protect their homes, let future generations know the heroes' deeds, pass on the heroes' spirit of not being afraid of sacrifice and hardship from generation to generation, and forge my Chinese soul! Wang Zhikun also happily thanked Li Chunlei for the fine wine. At the same time, he also proudly told Li Chunlei: "Protecting the family and defending the country is the duty of every soldier, and it is something that every Chinese enthusiastic boy should do." He also told Li Chunlei not to visit him in person in the future, his current life is very good and content."

Second stop: Li Chunlei bid farewell to the hero Wang Zhikun, and immediately came to the home of Wu Zhanshan, who was awarded "second-class merit" in the defense battle of Laoshan. Five wines were also presented to the heroes. Wu Zhanshan, according to the arrangement of the troops, began defense training in 1986. Two entry into defensive positions for 210 days. Under extremely difficult and dangerous conditions, he squatted in the cat's ear hole with several comrades, repelled dozens of enemy attacks, sneak attacks, and held the position, while our troops suffered no casualties. Therefore, in 1988, he was credited with "second-class merit" by the unit to which he belonged. After listening to his introduction, Li Chunlei said to the hero with admiration: "Today's happy life is not easy to come by, it was bought by you and your comrades with blood and life, and our descendants must cherish it." Then, Wu Zhanshan also said excitedly: "In the future, I will return to Laoshan and solemnly commemorate my comrades who died in their 20s." Then, Wu Zhanshan also said with deep understanding that for us human beings, war is quite cruel. But the country has needs, and I will heed the call. I feel that if the country's national defense is not strong, it must be passively beaten. In the future, I will continue to contribute to building a strong national defense of the motherland!
After the toast, Li Chunlei also said to the heroes: "I will come to visit you in the future and toast you." ”
