Talking about the classic scene in the movie "Children of Heroes":
It was the soldier Wang Cheng who faced the enemy army and shouted up to the sky: "For the sake of victory, fire at me!"
With a blaster in his hand, he ran and rushed towards the enemy without hesitation.
Like a sculpture, it stands in the depths of the audience's memory for a long time.
In the famous Battle of Laoshan, there is also such a person, known as "Laoshan Wang Cheng".
In order to hold his position, he piled all his weapons and bombs around him, held a walkie-talkie, and shouted: "Fire at me! Hurry up and fire your guns!"
Shifting perspectives, let's learn about a very different character - "Taizhou Old Lady".
Speaking of Taizhou's industrial and commercial system, there is an adjustment degree of up to 98% of the "old lady", he is the person with the highest satisfaction of many consumers, "this brother is careful and enthusiastic, is really for the sake of our consumers", won everyone's praise.
Presumably everyone thinks that these two people are incompatible, one can go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, and the other can perfectly handle the shortcomings of parents.
In fact, it's the same person.
is both brave and fearless, considerate and warm-hearted, and they are the protagonists we want to talk about today - Yang Qiliang.
One: Retreat to the mountains and forests
In 1996, Yang Qiliang, who retired from the army, refused a job in a county-level government unit and came to the industrial and commercial system of Taizhou township, working diligently, without mentioning that he had been a first-class meritorious hero.
It was not until March 2010 that a consumer association was established in the Taizhou Economic Development Zone, and the superior leaders saw Yang Qiliang's ability and appointed him as the secretary general of the consumer association.
Yang Qiliang has a hearty personality, and in his first year in office, he handled nearly 400 large and small complaints, and the resolution was efficient and fast.
Later, he left the post of secretary general and became an ordinary employee of the consumer association, and even so, he never slackened his work.
In 2011, Yang Qiliang once accepted a case about a car owner complaining about a 4S shop, the car owner had a traffic accident in a different place, but falsely claimed that the 4S shop did not repair the car and demanded compensation.
After practical investigation and multi-party verification, Yang Qiliang found that the owner of the car lied to defraud the claim, and decided not to support the complaint.
This veteran who had seen the bloody wind on the battlefield did not care about it, but still chose to explain it kindly, and finally solved it smoothly, and Yang Qiliang's former comrades-in-arms were stunned.
"Before this is released, Lao Yang is going to be angry and scold back, maybe he can still make a move!"
In the face of nearly 100 complaints every day, as long as Yang Qiliang accepts them, he will definitely find out the ins and outs of the matter, put himself in the shoes of consumers, and fight for and protect their rights and interests for them.
Colleagues who have gotten along with him all said: "Lao Yang often gets off work and still thinks about work!"
On another occasion, Yang Qiliang received a consumer complaint that the complainant claimed that there were insects in the flour he bought in the supermarket, which caused him and his family to eat bad stomachs, and demanded that the supermarket immediately lose money.
However, the supermarket did not think it was the matter of its own flour and was unwilling to pay the compensation, so the complainant made a phone call to the Taizhou Consumers Association.
Yang Qiliang went to mediate after knowing about it, and he asked the complainant to carefully explain what had happened, "I bought flour and went home to make dumplings to eat, and I had a bad stomach. ”
Yang Qiliang looked at the man in front of him who dodged his eyes, but insisted that it was a flour problem, and asked a few random questions, "How many dumplings did you wrap, and how many catties of noodles did you use?"
The man hesitated, and finally said, "15 dumplings, used...... I used 1 pound of noodles. ”
When making dumplings, I didn't find that there were insects in the flour, but the dumplings boiled in boiling water ate insects, not to mention that 15 dumplings didn't use 1 catty of noodles at all.
At this time, Yang Qiliang immediately determined that he was a professional whistleblower, who had nothing to do and was idle, so he specifically picked on the merchant's goods to ask for compensation.
After being exposed, the man became angry and shouted viciously:
"You wait! I will never spare you, I will let you lose this job!"
Yang Qiliang didn't entangle with him and was about to leave, but who expected that person actually stepped forward to make a move, Yang Qiliang glared at him with a look,
"I crawled out of the pile of dead people! You dare to do anything with me?"
Everyone present was shocked by his eyes, and the man did not dare to come forward and shout, but left in a gloomy manner.
His colleagues chased after them, and finally couldn't grind everyone's curiosity, and Yang Qiliang told them about the situation back then.
Only then did everyone know that Yang Qiliang was a first-class god of war who retired from the real battlefield.
In normal times, Yang Qiliang is more like an amiable and good big brother, and it is difficult to associate him with the soldiers who fought bravely on the battlefield.
The impression of Yang Qiliang does not seem to have lost his temper, no matter how difficult the complainant is, he can persuade very patiently, and he has never neglected any of the people.
All this can be traced back to the Battle of Laoshan that year.
II: Reminiscing about the eventful years of the past
In 1979, the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam officially began, which lasted until 1989.
And Yang Qiliang, with the belief of protecting his family and defending the country, enlisted in the army, and because of his excellent performance, he served as the squad leader of the 3rd Company of the 2nd Regiment of the 1st Infantry Division.
In 1984, Yang Qiliang received instructions from his superiors to form a death squad and go to the 166 Heights to complete the grim task:
Capture the high ground and hold on until the large army comes to support.
Yang Qiliang and more than a dozen soldiers resolutely went to the battlefield, and they walked through the dense and humid jungle, lying in ambush in a place full of mosquito bites, waiting for the right time to attack.
Their entire team worked closely together, and after several nights of bloody struggle, they defeated the enemy army and won 166 two high grounds.
But they did not let their guard down, and under the leadership of Yang Qiliang, they hid in a cat's ear hole on the high ground, always paying attention to the enemy's movements.
At this time, there were many wounded in the team, and the overall condition was poor, especially in the damp and dark cat's ear hole, and the wounded could not be effectively treated, and they were also infected with rotten crotch disease.
At the same time, the Vietnamese army, which was unwilling to retreat, launched many counterattacks, wanting to take the opportunity to recapture the position, but Yang Qiliang detected it in time and successfully smashed the Vietnamese army's plan for a sneak attack.
In order to recapture the important heights of 166, the Vietnamese army concentrated artillery fire, and the surroundings of the 166 heights were as dark as the end of the world, and there were raging flames everywhere.
The death squad led by Yang Qiliang suffered heavy losses, but in order to complete the task, they still held on, and the soldiers had only one belief, that is: swear to live and die with the position!
That night, the Vietnamese army suddenly changed the focus of the attack and set the target on the sentry post on the west side of the 166 Heights, and Yang Qiliang led five teammates who could still move to go immediately.
They repelled a total of three enemy attacks, but sacrificed three comrades, seriously wounded two, and only Yang Qiliang was left on the sentry post.
He was also seriously wounded, but he looked at his dead comrades and grieved, gritted his teeth, took out the bullets and ammunition fragments from his thighs, wrapped them around gauze casually, and began to collect all the ammunition that could still be used.
"Don't worry, I won't let you bleed in vain!"
Yang Qiliang thought of the sacrificed comrades-in-arms and the approaching troops, so he simply endured the pain in his body, and in more than four hours, he single-handedly killed 18 enemies and delayed the enemy's desire to launch many attacks.
Yang Qiliang looked at the dense enemy who was about to attack in the distance, he was not afraid, and picked up the walkie-talkie while throwing bombs to communicate to his superiors:
"Shoot me! Shoot me!"
The voice of the regiment commander came over the walkie-talkie, "You must suppress them! The reserves are coming soon!"
Later, the imaginary heroic sacrifice did not happen, and Yang Qiliang seemed to see the bullets passing by him, accurately shooting at the Vietnamese special forces who wanted to sneak attack from different angles.
The mainland's artillery showed miraculous artillery skills, and they took Yang Qiliang as the center, opened artillery suppression, and protected Yang Qiliang.
And Yang Qiliang is like a statue, standing firmly at the No. 1 sentry post and never flinching.
The reinforcement of the troops soon arrived, and they fought side by side with Yang Qiliang in the distance, and the 166 heights were held.
Since then, Yang Qiliang has a well-known nickname, "Lao Shan Wang Cheng", and the death squad he led has also won the title of "Stick to the Hero Company".
However, at this time, the war was not over, and the heights everywhere were in urgent need of rapid support, and the retreating Vietnamese troops did not completely leave for a long time, so our reserves had to go to the next support site first.
Unfortunately, Yang Qiliang fainted due to physical exhaustion and excessive blood loss, and the walkie-talkie that contacted the troops was blown up at some point.
No one noticed that Yang Qiliang, who was dying, still stayed at the sentry post he was holding onto, fighting until the last second.
III. Postscript
In this way, the army thought that Yang Qiliang died in that battle, and he never left his post without permission, but still chose to stick here.
In the dark, damp and hot cat's ear hole, one guard is a year.
It wasn't until a year later, during a truce between the two sides, that a man covered in mud who couldn't see his face clearly broke into a unit that had stopped for repairs.
"Who are you?" asked someone in the team.
Everyone looked at the "wild man" who kept comparing and drawing, and his mouth was staggering, and they looked at each other, and no one could hear what he said.
It wasn't until later that someone heard the name he was talking about, the "Old Mountain Wang Cheng", Yang Qiliang.
It turned out that after losing contact with the troops, Yang Qiliang did not get an order, did not dare to leave the 166 heights without authorization, and still chose to stick to the position, without any supplies, and beware of the Vietnamese army that may turn back at any time.
He was alone in the cat's ear hole, with snakes, rats, insects and ants as companions, no one to speak, and his speech function deteriorated early.
When he was hungry, he ate wild fruits, and when he was thirsty, he drank rainwater, and under such difficult conditions, he was alone for a year.
The god of war, who repelled the Vietnamese army four times and defeated eighteen enemies alone, has become what it is now, and the soldiers in the team can't help but burst into tears.
By 1989, the self-defense counterattack war against Vietnam, which had lasted for many years, gradually subsided.
Yang Qiliang, who left the army, was awarded a first-class meritorious service and arranged to be assigned to a county-level government unit, but he refused, and chose to go to a small township instead.
The hardships of that year did not defeat Yang Qiliang, he still loved life, work, and the people so much.
In the year of the epidemic, he was still fighting on the front line and never forgot the mission of the soldiers.
As he gets older, Yang Qiliang's physical condition is getting worse and worse.
There were still a few bullets in his body that had not been removed in time, and the shocking wounds seemed to remind him of those hard years.
Old wounds were always painful in the dark and damp weather, and nightmares from time to time always brought him back to the battlefield of that year, and the thrilling moments when he lived and died with the artillery fire.
"The injuries I've suffered are actually nothing, but now I can't sleep well at night, and my mind is full of bullets, and I've been following me all my life. ”
On the eve of Army Day in 2017, representatives of the Taizhou Municipal Market Supervision Bureau came to express condolences to Yang Qiliang, learned more about his heroic deeds, and put them in the Ningxi celebrity story column:
"Yang Qiliang, a hero of the people, defended his family and defended the country alone and destroyed 18 enemies during the war years, made great military exploits, and the smoke of gunpowder dissipated and hid his merit and fame, and he maintained his original intention to continue to seek well-being for the people, and he was really a hero. ”
Let's salute the heroes!
