Imagine that in the vast meadow, a 13-year-old little Red Army soldier went to "convenience" because of a stomachache, but when he came back, he found that he was left behind by the large army. This is not the plot of the movie, but the real story of the Long March in 1935. Little Red Army Luo Yuqi, an originally happy child, was forced to grow up in the torrent of war, how can his story not be moved? With questions, let's walk into Luo Yuqi's world and feel the tenacity and courage of the little warriors in that turbulent era.
In that turbulent era, Luo Yuqi was just one of the countless small Red Army that participated in the Long March, but his experience was extremely special. Born in Langzhong, Sichuan, he originally had a warm family. Unfortunately, the war brought irreparable losses - my father fell under the butcher's knife of the Japanese invaders, and my mother chose to end her life in humiliation. Such a heavy blow is undoubtedly devastating for a 13-year-old. Xiao Luo Yuqi did not choose to sink, a fire ignited in his heart, it was revenge for his relatives, and it was also the determination to make this kind of tragedy not happen again.
The road to joining the Red Army was not easy. Faced with his age, many Red Army soldiers and leaders initially refused. But Luo Yuqi didn't give up, he insisted on following and never giving up. His dedication eventually impressed the organization, and he was assigned to the new troupe, where he was responsible for publicity and performances. But as the fighting intensified, he once again stepped forward and asked to be an intelligence officer. Due to his young age, he was more likely to approach the enemy without suspicion, which made him the best person to gather intelligence. He shines in this role, providing a lot of valuable information to the Red Army.
In 1935, after the failure of the fifth anti-"encirclement and suppression" campaign, the Red Army was forced to embark on the difficult Long March. For Luo Yuqi, who is only 13 years old, this is a physical and mental challenge. The Zoige steppe was beautiful and vast, but it was full of merciless tests for the marching Red Army. The wind and snow caused the temperature to plummet, and many soldiers fell ill or died due to the cold. The swamp hidden in the meadow is a trap for life, and if you are not careful, you will fall into it, and your life will hang by a thread.
In this difficult environment, Luo Yuqi's feet slowly festered, and every step was painful torture. As the food ran out, they even had to eat grass roots to feed their hunger. Prolonged hunger and cold left many fighters depressed to the extreme. Luo Yuqi has always maintained an optimistic attitude, and his smile and persistence have become a bright spot in the team.
The incident happened during a break, Luo Yuqi went to "convenience" because of stomach pain, but when she came back, she found that the team had already marched. At that moment, he stood on the open grassland, and there was silence all around, only the wind whistling in his ears. Panic and despair instantly came over him, but he didn't give up. He knew that as long as he followed the direction of the team, there would always be a day when they would meet again. In this way, a 13-year-old child walked alone on the vast grass, and every step showed determination and courage.
In the days that followed, Luo Yuqi encountered various challenges. Once, he was almost surrounded by a pack of wolves, and by wit and courage, he drove the wolves away with a knife and a stone in his hand. Again, while looking for water to drink in the river, he was almost swept away by the river, but fortunately he was able to save himself by grabbing a large rock. These experiences have made this originally innocent child stronger and more mature.
In the end, Luo Yuqi relied on her own persistence and the traces left by the Red Army to find the troops. When he saw those familiar faces again, tears flowed down his faces. His teammates were also shocked by his experience, how incredible courage and perseverance a 13-year-old boy could survive in such a harsh environment and finally find the big army!
Luo Yuqi's story is not only a piece of history, but also a spiritual inheritance. In that turbulent era, small Red Army soldiers like Luo Yuqi carried too many burdens on their young shoulders. Their perseverance and courage should be remembered by the people of our time. Looking back on this history, not only to remember the past, but also to draw strength from it, in the face of difficulties and challenges in life, each of us can find our own perseverance and courage like Xiao Luo Yuqi.
