Li Taoxiong has had a dream of being a soldier since he was a child, and whenever he imagines himself wearing a military uniform and holding a steel gun, his young heart will stir up the pride of defending his family and country. This is not just a dream, but also a life goal he has set for himself.
In order to achieve this goal, Li Taoxiong began to train extremely hard since he was a child. When he practiced shooting, he was always attentive and meticulous.
From 100 meters away, he was able to hit the bullseye with ease, and every bullet hit 100 shots, a skill that was undoubtedly outstanding among his peers.
After joining the army, he trained more intensively, so his shooting skills did not weaken by half a point, but became stronger.
In the whole army, as long as the "king of 100 shots and 100 hits" is mentioned, everyone knows that this must be Li Taoxiong.
In 1984, fighting intensified on Vietnam's border. Knowing that the war on the front line was tight, Li Taoxiong did not hesitate to submit an application to go to the front.
He knew in his heart that this was the best opportunity to test the results of his years of hard work, and it was also a moment to serve his country.
When the troops received the order to support the front line, Li Taoxiong couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart and took the initiative to ask to join the combat team.
In the battle of Maoshan, he was like a god of war, hiding in the dense bushes, his eyes firmly fixed on the enemy army in front of him.
Whenever an enemy makes the slightest mistake and reveals a flaw, his gun will be like a scythe of death, sending the bullet out of the chamber with unerring accuracy.
With the sound of gunshots, the enemy soldiers fell to the ground like wheat that had been cut down. Li Taoxiong's shooting speed and accuracy are jaw-dropping. In just a few dozen minutes, hundreds of enemies fell under his guns.
However, the enemy's firepower was also very strong, and there was a steady stream of support, in that fierce battle, Li Taoxiong desperately rescued his comrades, but unfortunately was hit by the enemy's scattered bullets.
When his comrades found him, he was already lying in a pool of blood, covered in blood and suffering countless wounds. His comrades rushed him to the field hospital, but the doctors were unable to save his life despite their best efforts.
Li Taoxiong's heroic deeds spread among the army, and his sacrifice was deeply regretted by everyone. But on the way to the rear for burial, an incredible thing happened.
His body slipped from the car twice, and each time it fell, the soldiers in charge of the escort felt a palpitation, as if some force was preventing them from completing the task.
They checked the vehicle and confirmed that everything was normal, but shortly after driving, Li Taoxiong's body slipped again. The situation caught the attention of a nurse.
She carefully examined Li Taoxiong's body, trying to figure out if something was wrong. Just when she took a closer look, she found a shocking phenomenon: Li Taoxiong's eyes couldn't close!
The little nurse, with her keen intuition and rich experience, judged that Li Taoxiong might not really be dead.
She quickly notified the medical staff, and everyone examined Li Taoxiong on the spot. Sure enough, they found that Li Taoxiong's body still had a weak body temperature, and his heart was beating slightly.
In other words, Li Taoxiong still has hope to come back to life, this is a race against death, everyone did not dare to delay, and immediately reported the situation to the troops.
When the leaders of the unit learned of the situation, they quickly arranged for a helicopter to send Li Taoxiong to a larger hospital for rescue.
Under the full treatment of medical staff, Li Taoxiong miraculously woke up after 78 days in a coma.
His will to survive and perseverance moved everyone. Li Taoxiong's awakening not only brought great encouragement to his comrades-in-arms, but also rekindled the hope of his family.
His parents were devastated when they learned of their son's "sacrifice". But when they learned that their son was still alive, the family burst into tears with emotion.
But Li Taoxiong's awakening does not mean that he is completely out of danger. He still had a large amount of shrapnel left in his body, which required multiple surgeries to remove. He is also blind in his left eye and has severe vision loss in his right eye. These sequelae will stay with him for the rest of his life.
But even so, Li Taoxiong did not bow to fate. With his strong will and optimistic attitude, he carried it through.
After going through the Ghost Gate Pass, Li Taoxiong was extremely grateful to the party and the country for saving his life, and thanked his comrades-in-arms for their care and support.
He said: "Leave the hope of life to your comrades-in-arms, as it should be. I don't feel miserable, compared to those brothers who sacrificed, I am already very satisfied to survive. ”
After recovering, Li Taoxiong returned to his hometown, although he could no longer charge on the battlefield as before, but his heart was still full of love for the motherland and loyalty to the people.
Li Taoxiong's story has also been passed down in the army, and his spirit has inspired more soldiers to move forward bravely.
