Luo Shengjiao: Ying Ming Zhao Qianqiu Loyal soul inspires future generations

　　Whenever the name Luo Shengjiao is mentioned, many people will think of the young warrior in the Chinese textbook who jumped into the ice cave and bravely rescued the Fallen North Korean teenager Choe Ying.

　　Luo Shengjiao, born in 1931 to a poor peasant family in Xinhua County, Hunan Province, joined the Chinese People's Liberation Army in 1949. In July 1950, he joined the Chinese New Democratic Youth League. In April 1951, he participated in the Chinese Volunteer Army to fight in Korea, and served as a reconnaissance company directly under the 141st Division of the 47th Army of the Chinese Volunteer Army.

　　Once, after the enemy's artillery attack, Luo Shengjiao and his comrades faintly heard the cries of children. Over the hillside, they saw a small child crying and pounced on a woman next to an air raid shelter, constantly shouting "Ama ni", covered in blood. Luo Shengjiao, who witnessed this scene, was filled with grief in his heart. He and his comrades buried the North Korean woman and entrusted the child to a North Korean grandfather to raise. That night, Luo Shengjiao could not sleep, he took a flashlight and wrote these words in his diary: "When I am hit by the bullets of the invaders, I hope you will not stay in front of my corpse; you should continue to move forward bravely to avenge the tens of millions of Korean people and comrades who sacrificed!" ”

　　In the early morning of January 2, 1952, four North Korean teenagers were skating on the Kakunuma River near Ishida-ri, Seongcheon-gun, South Pyongan Province, when one of them, Choe Young, accidentally fell into a 2.7-meter-deep ice cave, and the other three shouted for help. After Luo Sheng taught the morning exercise, he passed there, heard the shouting, and immediately rushed to the place of the accident.

　　As he ran, he took off his cotton clothes and pants, braved the cold of -20 ° C, and jumped into the ice cave and dived into the water to find it. He lifted Cui Ying out of the water twice, both because the ice around the ice cave broke and fell into the water. He used his last strength to push Cui Ying out of the water again. Cui Ying was rescued, but Luo Shengjiao gave up his precious life at the age of 21.

　　On February 3, 1952, in recognition of the great internationalism and revolutionary heroism of Luo Shengjiao, the leading organ of the Chinese People's Volunteer Army posthumously awarded him the title of "Model of Loving the People of the First Class" in recognition of the great internationalism and revolutionary heroism of Luo Shengjiao. On April 1 of the same year, the Central Committee of the Chinese New Democratic Youth League posthumously awarded him the title of "Model Youth League Member". On June 25, 1953, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea posthumously awarded him the Order of the National Flag, First Class, and the Order of Honor for Soldiers, First Class. After the death of Luo Shengjiao, the Oak Swamp River where he dedicated his life was renamed "LuoshengJiao River", Cui Ying's hometown of Ishidali was renamed "Luoshengjiao Village", and the Buddha Body Cave Mountain where he was buried was renamed "Luoshengjiao Mountain", and the "Luoshengjiao Memorial Pavilion" and "Luoshengjiao Monument" were erected on the mountain.
