Comrades-in-arms, close as brothers
Honor for the motherland
For the benefit of the people
We must fight side by side to win
Take the victory
In 1979, as soon as the "Song of Comrades-in-Arms", composed by Liu Miaoxin and Du Qi and composed by Du Xingcheng, came out, it aroused a very fierce response from the whole army of the country.
For a time, this song spread throughout the north and south of the river, and the loud song resounded throughout the military camps, and this song also became the favorite song of many soldiers.
Zhu Yugang's border troops who went to the War of Resistance Against Vietnam were no exception.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > dead and alive, and Zicheng said</h1>
In 1979, a teenager had just begun to explore the world, and with a lot of enthusiasm, he heeded the call of the state without hesitation, and followed more than 200 enthusiastic teenagers from Youxian County, Hunan Province to Guangxi to participate in the arduous task of resisting Vietnam and defending the country.
At that time, Zhu Yu had just turned 16 years old, and the age of ignorance and understanding was also the age of daring to do something.
At that time, the country was in crisis and needed the protection of patriotic teenagers.
Zhu Yugang was sent to Guangxi to become an excellent scout, and at a young age he lived in that place where the fire was infested for many years, from the initial instinctive fear, to the vanguard of the battle.
During that arduous day, Zhu Yugang also formed a very deep friendship with his comrades-in-arms around him.
In their free time, they would sit together and talk for a long time, and they would discuss their hobbies together, talk about their families, and share their imaginations about the future, like boys who live in peace.
But the relentless flames of war also seemed to be a wake-up call, this was not the age of peace, and the invaders not far away were staring at them, ready to seize this beautiful homeland when they were not ready.
So a group of eighteen- and nineteen-year-old teenagers made promises under the fire of the artillery.
40 years ago, under the Sino-Vietnamese border position, they "signed" a life-and-death oath.
At that time, Zhu Yugang was coming down from the battlefield when he met His fellow countryman and comrade-in-arms Wang Youlian.
Wang Youlian is a special agent company, and Zhu Yugang is a good brother who is a friend of life and death.
He told Zhu Yugang: "Yu Gang, what will happen next is a fierce battle, let's swear an oath, right?" ”
"You say!" Zhu Yugang also seemed to have a premonition of something.
Wang Youlian said: "If anyone survives, he is responsible for taking care of each other's parents and family, and he will come to visit the tomb every year." ”
Zhu Yugang understood the cruelty and severity of this war, and he was also very worried about his relatives at home, so he nodded seriously.
Wang Youlian is 5 months older than Zhu Yugang, but in terms of personality, Wang Youlian is more lively than Zhu Yugang, he said, "Let's pull a hook, right?" ”
Zhu Yugang smiled and pulled a hook with him and made a promise.
Wang Youlian also told him, "If you see Zhou Happiness, remember to tell him our agreement and let him participate." ”
Zhou Xingfu was also a fellow hunan countryman, and he joined the army with them and belonged to the reconnaissance company.
Therefore, after Zhu Yugang met Zhou Xingxing, he told him about his earlier agreement with Wang Youlian, and Zhou Xingxing agreed to join.
At that time, there was a small soldier next to Zhou Xingxing, and everyone called him XiaoGao.
After Xiao Gao learned of this agreement, he immediately said that he would also join.
Xiao Gao is from Guangdong and is still a recruit.
Zhu Yugang understood the true meaning of this agreement, and he did not want this recruit who had just joined the army to make such a sad decision.
He looked at him and said, "Go, you recruit, what's the fuss?" ”
Xiao Gao smiled "hey hey" and still said that he wanted to join.
In the end, Xiao Gao joined their "Brotherhood Covenant".
Everyone knows the meaning behind this vow, but no one says it.
The family and the country are in difficulty, and the Chinese teenagers need to do their best to defend their homeland, so that the boys who are in their youth firmly make this last-ditch agreement.
The weather did not go according to people's wishes, and the war became more and more tense, and they rushed to the battlefield without hesitation.
In what was known as another "Battle of Shangganling", these spirited teenagers who were not afraid of bloody sacrifices lay forever on the land of a foreign land.
In order to seize the territory, the enemy's artillery fire was extremely fierce, and various weapons and equipment took turns to fight, causing heavy losses to the border guards.
Suddenly, a heavy cannon exploded next to Zhou Xingxing, and before the young Zhou Xingxing could react, he was swept into the tree by the powerful cannon fire, and unfortunately died heroically.
Zhu Yugang, who witnessed this scene, was extremely sad, but at this time he was also scarred.
His leg was bruised by artillery fire, and his wounds were so bad that sensen's bones had been exposed.
But he could no longer care about the pain, and with tears in his eyes, he struggled to carry Zhou Xingxing back to the camp, and after settling his brother's body, he then resolutely threw himself into battle.
Then, a shell landed between the little high and the chief of affairs.
Zhu Yugang showed a look of panic as he shouted, "Xiao Gao, get down quickly."
However, as a recruit, Xiao Gao, due to lack of combat experience and slow reaction ability, before he had time to lie down, he was instantly energized by a huge impact.
Wang Youlian, who fought on another battlefield, also sacrificed his precious life because of the relentless artillery fire.
Seeing his good brothers die one by one in front of him, Zhu Yugang was extremely sad in his heart, turning all his grief into strength, he took up weapons, dragged his injured legs, and fought the enemy more fearlessly.
War is always cruel, in the rain of bullets, Zhu Yugang was seriously injured in the thighs, lungs, waist and other places, and caused deafness in his right ear.
But he shouldered the mission of his brothers to resolutely protect his homeland.
After a fierce bombardment, he only felt that the seven holes were bleeding, and his eyes were bright red, and he passed out.
When he woke up again, he found himself lying in a field hospital, and the doctors tried their best to pull him back from the ghost gate.
However, there was no one around except him.
His comrades-in-arms, his good brothers, never came back.
<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > ten years of drinking ice, it is difficult to cool hot blood</h1>
Returning from the battlefield, Zhu Yugang has never forgotten his promise to his brothers.
Although the troops also wanted to escort Zhu Yugang to study at the military academy, he still refused.
"When I heard the news that all my comrades had died, I knew that I could only retire, and when I made that promise, I should honor it."
When he said these words, Zhu Yugang still couldn't hide his sad look.
He knew that the good brothers with whom he had lived day and night would never return, that the deceased had passed away, and that all those who survived could do was fulfill their last wishes.
In order to fulfill their wishes, Zhu Yu just stepped into the road of study after retiring from the army.
He is well aware of the importance of reading, and only with enough knowledge can he better fulfill their vows and provide the best living security for himself and his comrades-in-arms' families.
Two years later, after studying hard in the cold window, he was finally admitted to college.
He couldn't wait to let his brothers know the good news, so he took the admission notice and traveled more than 1,000 kilometers from Changsha, Hunan to Pingxiang, Guangxi, to the tomb of his sacrificed comrades.
On that day, the sky was getting dark, the shadows were shaking, Zhu Yugang took two bottles of Guilin Sanhua wine, and another person walked a distance of one or two decades to the martyrs' cemetery.
Coming to the tomb, seeing that the names of the brothers on the tombstone were still bright red, he opened the wine, poured it for his comrades- and filled himself with a glass.
As before, chat with them and tell them what he has experienced in the past few years, the feelings he has generated, and the thoughts he misses them.
In the depths of his love, he could not avoid a few tears, but he also understood that only he was himself, and he had to live strongly, for the sake of his comrades-in-arms, for that oath, he also had to work hard to live.
Since then, it has become his habit to go to the martyrs' cemetery every year to reminisce with his comrades-in-arms, which is no longer a must-do and must-remember thing, but a very common thing, like sleeping and eating every day.
For more than thirty years, no matter whether it is windy or rainy or the sun is shining, he perseveres and does not fall for a year.
He told his comrades-in-arms all about his affairs, going to school, graduating, getting married, starting a business, etc., and so on.
Because he knows that he is not living alone for himself, he is also living for his comrades-in-arms, with their lives, their future.
In the following years, Zhu Yu just graduated and became a teacher, and then resigned to go to the sea to do business, successively ran small department stores, sold clothes, repaired cars, operated hotels, tossed and turned, struggled hard, worked alone in society, ate everything, suffered everything, but he persevered, just to fulfill their oaths, a gentleman's word, and the horse was difficult to chase.
After a long period of unremitting efforts, Zhu Yugang's company has finally become the climate, and he can finally fulfill his promise well.
"The living are to sweep the graves of the dead and to take care of the families of the victims."
Wang Youlian's entrustment, Zhu Yugang has always kept in mind, never forgotten.
After the company's slight improvement, Zhu Yugang turned around through various channels to find Wang Youlian's family, his father had died, and there was only one elderly mother.
Because the distance was too far, the father did not see his son again until his death, and the elderly mother had limited mobility and could only carry this fragile family with her thin body at home.
Zhu Yugang treated Wang Youlian's mother as if she were his own mother, taking care of her family affairs, and after being busy, he asked for medical treatment and asked for warmth.
Since 1988, every year during the Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Xiaonian and other festivals, he has to spend with the elderly.
To this day, on the eve of the festival, the old man will happily say to the neighbors, "My eldest son will come to see me tomorrow." ”
Today, Zhu Yugang has become an inseparable member of the Wang family, and it is not a relative who is more like a relative.
Due to a sudden accident in the family of comrade-in-arms Zhou Xingfu, his brother and sister-in-law died early, leaving only a small child.
Before Brother Zhou left, he entrusted his only son to Zhu Yugang, which was enough to see the trust of the Zhou family in Zhu Yugang.
Since then, Zhu Yugang has always taken that child with him, carefully cultivated, and now he has become a usable pillar of material.
Regrettably, because the information was not developed at that time and the number of people joining the army was large, Zhu Yugang searched hard for more than twenty years but never succeeded, and the family information of his comrade-in-arms Xiaogao was always unknown, which also became a matter of concern in his heart, and he always regretted that he could not do anything for Xiaogao.
<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > trickle of teachings, passed on from generation to generation</h1>
Today, Zhu Yugang has already formed his own family, with a son and a lovely granddaughter.
In 2017, the movie "Fanghua" was released.
Although he was already the father of a child, when he saw Liu Feng, who participated in the anti-Vietnam counterattack in the movie, being blown up with a pair of hands, Zhu Kai still couldn't help but cry.
Zhu Kai is the son of Zhu Yugang, he followed his father to the south and north, working hard, after seeing the various grievances suffered by Liu Feng, a disabled soldier who returned from the battlefield in the movie, when he turned to work, Zhu Kai could not help but think of the tribulations and hardships that his father endured when he first started a business.
At this scene, Zhu Kai could not control his tears no matter what, and Zhu Yugang on the side saw all this in his heart, and only silently said a word, "My son understands me."
The communication between two men does not need to be deep, as long as it is understood.
Time flies, and the years fly by.
In the past 37 years, the world has undergone earth-shaking changes, and China is no longer that weak country, with huge economic strength.
Over the years, all the changes that have taken place in this world, Zhu Yugang told his comrades-in-arms word by word, telling them that their wishes have been fulfilled and that the world is finally at peace.
On August 1st Founding Day in 2020, the weather was lightly rainy, and the sound of rain accompanied by Zhu Yugang's arrival made the martyrs' cemetery not as deserted as before.
Zhu Yu had just braved the rain to pay homage to the martyrs who could not return to their families to sleep in southern Xinjiang, he stood in front of the tombstone, looked at the name on the tombstone, and said softly, "Brothers, I am going home again."
Came back, not coming, but he was back where he should have been.
This trip to Guangxi, because of the development of society, is not as long as the previous journey, Zhu Yugang and his party came by car, the time was shortened, and the number of worshippers also increased.
For more than 30 years, his family has supported Zhu Yugang to go to Guangxi to visit the grave, and even his granddaughter, who is less than 5 years old, told him on the phone: "Grandpa, you are happy." ”
As Zhu Yugang's deeds of keeping his promise became known, more people joined the ranks of Zhu Yugang's annual worship of martyrs.
They came to the cemetery, sent flowers and blessings, and expressed their gratitude and remembrance.
At this time of year, Zhu Yugang and his surviving comrades-in-arms would sing the song they once loved most, "The Song of Comrades-in-Arms."
In order to commemorate their comrades who have passed away, to commemorate the hard years, to commemorate the bittersweet and bittersweet of these years.
Today, this deep comradeship has brought more and more people together, bringing together a powerful force to care for heroes and honor soldiers.
However, the years urge people to grow old, and now Zhu Yugang is nearly 60 years old, years of fatigue and years of tempering, coupled with a serious illness, his body has not been as good as before.
The length of the road and the steepness of the stairs left him exhausted.
Although he had infinite words in his heart and wanted to say to his comrades-in-arms, although there were still many things he wanted to do, although he still wanted to help more martyrs' families, his body could no longer support him to do those things.
This couldn't help but make Zhu Yugang a little overwhelmed, this was what he had been committed to all his life, it was the biggest hope of his life, but if he couldn't continue anymore, what would he do? What should these martyrs do?
As Zhu Yugang's son, Zhu Kai also noticed this.
How could his father not inherit this vow by devoting his whole life to it and fulfilling it with all his words and deeds?
That night, in front of many veterans, Zhu Kai filled his wine glasses and solemnly walked toward his father: "Dad, one day, you can't walk, I will take the child and go down for you!" ”
This is a man's promise, just like the promise made by Zhu Yugang and Wang Youlian many years ago, solemn, serious, and solemn.
Suddenly, the whole audience was stunned, and Zhu Yugang was already in tears.
He knew that his son had grown up.
He knew that his brethren would always be remembered.
Zhu Yugang said:
"To these martyrs who sacrificed, to our soldiers, if you do not respect him, do not care for him, do not love him, in the future the next war comes, who will protect our country?" As long as our society attaches great importance to and cares for these martyrs, the families of martyrs, and the relatives of martyrs, so that they can truly feel the warmth of society, our country will become stronger and stronger. ”
He did, and from then on, his children, his grandchildren, his descendants for generations to come.
Even more people will do the same.
This is his heart and his mission.
At that time, for the sake of that oath of life and death on the battlefield, Zhu Yugang insisted on sweeping the grave for 37 years, and such a friendship shone brightly in the years.
