Source: Learning Xi Regiment • Chinese Military Trumpet

A cold winter, a strong earthquake struck. At the critical moment, the officers and men of the People's Liberation Army and the People's Armed Police Force and the militia acted upon hearing the order, resolutely implemented President Xi's important instructions, actively cooperated with local authorities in carrying out emergency rescue and disaster relief, and did their utmost to ensure the safety of people's lives and property.

After the 6.2-magnitude earthquake in Jishishan, the lives and safety of the people in the disaster area have always affected the hearts of the CPC Central Committee and the people of the whole country. The officers and soldiers of the task force quickly rushed to the front line of earthquake relief to carry out rescue, interpreted loyalty and responsibility with courage and fearlessness, warmed the cold winter night with youthful blood, and practiced the oath with practical actions - all for the people.

"The road is open!", "The lights are on!", "The stove is burning!"...... The people's soldiers will work together with all parties to rescue the masses as soon as possible, seize access roads, restore power and communications, and gather together a bubbling warm current of concerted efforts.

Hope, like a little starlight, illuminates the night-

Officers and men used solid arms to hold up the boat of life. On a cold winter night, the child rescued from the ruins lay peacefully on the warrior's back, his arms tightly wrapped around the warrior's neck. The warrior left the child with a broad shoulder and a warm coat, the brim of which hid his youthful face.

This post-00s soldier is called Bao Jianwei, and he participated in the earthquake relief for the first time. He said: "I am a soldier of the people, so I should stand up when the party and the people need it!"

With hurried steps, the officers and men rushed out of the road to peace. In Yangwa Village, Liuji Township, Jishishan County, officers and soldiers of the Linxia Detachment of the Gansu Armed Police Corps found an old man in his 80s after walking 3 kilometers in the dark. The old man was injured in his waist and could not walk, so the officers and soldiers carefully carried him onto a stretcher and transferred him outside the village.

During the rescue, the officers and soldiers rushed forward to carry the stretcher, walked on the damaged road for more than one hour, and finally transferred the old man safely to the ambulance. "Thanks to the help of the People's Liberation Army, you are as close as relatives!" said the old man gratefully after being rescued.

Officers and men use warm hands to protect the safety of the people. Camouflage figures shuttled through the cold wind, looking for hope in the ruins, their shoulders shouldering responsibilities and their chests full of sincerity.

After the earthquake, Feng Zhongsheng, a member of the party commando team of a brigade of the 76th Group Army and a second-class sergeant, rescued two trapped people from the ruins of the wall, regardless of his back injury.

At the earthquake relief site in Dahe Village, Dahejia Town, Jishishan County, an elderly man accidentally fell and was injured.

In the early morning of the 20th, an aftershock broke out. An aunt was injured in a fall while urgently avoiding danger, and Yu Ming, a military doctor on patrol, urgently treated her wounds and sent her to the nearest medical point for treatment. "With you here, my heart will be steady!" Aunt held Yu Ming's hand for a long time and refused to let go.

Care, like a spring breeze, moisturizes the heart——

"We worked against time to keep the people warm overnight. In the resettlement site of Chenjia Village, in order to solve the problem of accommodation and heating for the affected people as soon as possible, Kong Dexuan, a sergeant of the No. 3 Mobile Squadron of a detachment of the Gansu Armed Police Corps, charged forward and led the whole class to fight continuously and set up more than 30 tents. After the tent was set up, Kong Dexuan and his comrades-in-arms couldn't take a break, and were busy helping the masses set up a stove.

"It's so cold, warm clothes must be sent to everyone", "Let's carefully check the fire hazards again in a while"...... At the entrance of Majia Village, Jishishan County, Wei Yuping, commander of the Jishishan County Militia Emergency Company, carefully explained the precautions, and the militia carefully inspected the tents on a cold night to ensure that every person was not cold.

At midnight, the temperature is getting lower and lower, the temporary resettlement site is quiet and orderly, the affected people have slept peacefully, and the fire in the tent is booming, warming people and hearts.

The earlier the psychological intervention, the more helpful it is to prevent psychological problems from occurring. Two psychologists from the Qinghai Armed Police Corps Hospital shuttled through various tents to carefully observe the emotions of the affected people and treat and counsel some of the people who had stress reactions. The Xining Joint Logistics Support Center dispatched a medical team to carry out one-on-one psychological counseling for the people in need on the basis of providing services such as health check-ups and medical treatments.

A young woman hides in a corner, frightened by the earthquake and unable to ease her nervousness. "Sister, don't be afraid, I'll get better soon...... Psychologist Jia Ji stepped forward and chatted with her about the stories of participating in emergency rescue and disaster relief in the past, introducing the current lives of the people being helped, and helping her reduce her psychological pressure.

The water drips into ice outside, and the interior is warm like spring. "We are the successors of communism, inherit the glorious traditions of our revolutionary ancestors, love the motherland, love the people, and ......" On the morning of the 21st, in a tent in a temporary resettlement site in Xiaohongping Village, Shiyuan Town, Jishishan County, dozens of children sang loudly under the leadership of Cai Xinzhe, a corporal of a brigade of the 76th Group Army.

"Thanks to the People's Liberation Army for building this 'tent school', we are relieved. Feng Rong, a parent of the students, told reporters that they could devote more energy to post-disaster reconstruction.

On the 22nd, at the resettlement site in Kangjiao Village, Dahejia Town, the Linxia Military Sub-district organized militia to give the students the "first lesson of resumption of school" in the "tent school"; at the resettlement site in Chenjia Village, Dahejia Town, a brigade of the 76th Group Army and the Linxia Prefecture Committee of the Communist Youth League jointly created a "childlike harbor......

Warmth, like a fire in the cold night, ignites the winter-

From defending the homeland and defending the country and guarding the border to fighting floods and rescuing emergencies and fighting earthquakes and providing disaster relief, wherever there is danger and need, there are soldiers. When the earthquake struck, it was a winter night, and under the low temperature and severe cold, the soldiers won the praise of the people in the disaster area with their sincerity and sincerity.

In front of the army-green tent, there are 3 large pots, and the white dumplings in the pot keep tumbling...... It is the soup that boils, and what warms the hearts of the people.

On the evening of the 22nd, at the resettlement site of Liuji Township Primary School in Jishishan County, officers and soldiers of a brigade of the 76th Group Army made dumplings and spent the winter solstice with the affected people. "We chop the stuffing by hand, make the noodles by hand, and can wrap more than 2,000 beef and radish stuffed dumplings. The leader of the cooking squad and the second-class sergeant Pu Aihua told reporters.

"It doesn't matter if we're tired, as long as the people can eat hot food. "In the temporary resettlement sites, the mission troops dispatched field cooking vehicles to ensure the supply of hot food for the affected people throughout the day, so that everyone could eat well.

"It doesn't matter if we're cold, as long as the masses don't get cold. "On the 19th, officers and men of a certain brigade braved the severe cold of minus 10 degrees Celsius to clear the snow, level the road, set up tents and stoves for the affected people, and do a good job of keeping warm from the cold. After more than 100 tents were set up, they let the affected people move in with peace of mind, while they themselves lay down in the carriage of the transport vehicle.

In order to prevent the masses from being poisoned by gas, the officers and men sealed the connection between the chimney and the stove with mud, sealed the mouth of the chimney with tin foil, installed carbon monoxide alarms in the tents, and checked the safety situation in the tents one by one at regular intervals.

Outside the resettlement site in Xiaohongping Village, Shiyuan Town, Jishishan County, the people affected by the disaster picked up shovels to shovel ice and snow and clear roads. This ordinary trail reflects the unity of the military and the people.

At the resettlement site of Liuji Township Primary School, the reporter met the soldier Bading Jiangcuo. He is sharing his story with the children: "My hometown is in Yushu Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Qinghai Province, and when I was 12 years old, I experienced the Yushu earthquake, and it was the People's Liberation Army that rescued me and my family from the rubble. After graduating from high school, I joined the military. Now I'm here to help you and protect you. Don't be afraid, the future will be better. ”

Listening to his story, several children said firmly in immature children's voices: "When I grow up, I also want to be a member of the People's Liberation Army and become a person who can protect others." ”

At present, the people affected by the disaster have been basically resettled, and post-disaster reconstruction is being carried out in an orderly manner. According to the commander of the forward command post of the Western Theater, the officers and men of the task force and the militia will continue to fight on the front line of earthquake relief and make all-out efforts to promote the resettlement of the disaster-stricken masses and help the disaster-stricken masses restore order in production and life as soon as possible.

The military and the people are of the same heart, and there is no hurdle that cannot be crossed.

Across the winter, we will usher in the spring of recovery......
