Quiet desks, ink-scented books, and students with flourishing styles, Nankai Garden on the edge of the Haihe River looks so quiet and beautiful.
On September 23, President Xi Jinping replied to eight newly recruited college students from Nankai University. The letter said: "Since ancient times, many of our literati and scholars have the feeling of home and country of congruence. During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, many Nankai students took the initiative to go to the battlefield and interpreted the spiritual connotation of patriotism and dedication with blood and life. The chairman's reply was like spring thunder, which aroused strong repercussions, and the vast number of officers and soldiers and young students were deeply encouraged and inspired.
Eighty years ago, the Nankai campus was not as good as it is today. Soon after the "July 7 Incident," Nankai University became the first institution of higher learning to be destroyed and scorched by the Japanese after the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and it was also an educational institution openly declared by the invaders that they would completely blow up.
Today, an ordinary stone stele stands quietly in a corner of the Nankai campus. On the back of the stone stele, 832 names such as He Maoxun and Chen Jinghu are engraved.
This stone stele is called "Monument to National Southwest United University". Southwest United University is a university jointly established with Peking University Tsinghua university after Nankai was forced to move south. Behind the 832 names are the 832 students who joined the army during the war.
"North China is so big that it can't accommodate a quiet desk", this is the sad and indignant cry of students at the time of national peril decades ago.
The young students of that era were eager to learn and eager to progress. However, the future and destiny of the country and the life and death of the nation also affect every nerve of theirs. Joining the Anti-Japanese League in the northeast or going west to the Yan'an Revolution were progressive choices for the youth of that era.
"You have responded to the motherland's call to join the army, turned your patriotism into a trip to serve the country, and set a new example for the vast number of young people with lofty ideals" "I feel very pleased with your ambition and passion." President Xi's encouragement and encouragement is a praise for the nankai enlisted students, and also profoundly expresses the positive significance of college students serving the country from the military.
In 2002, Gao Ming, a college student at Peking University, joined the army, and at the farewell ceremony, Gao Ming's speech was not long, but he repeated the word "responsibility" 13 times. That year, our country officially recruited conscripts from full-time college students.
In recent years, in the college campuses in the north and south of the great river, there has been a boom of "carrying a pen from rong" everywhere. At the end of August this year, according to the spokesperson of the Ministry of Education, the total number of college students enlisted in the military in 2017 reached 1.078 million.
Youth is not only the dashing in front of you, but also the home country and the border pass. "The country is in difficulty, the country is in danger, and my generation of students should throw themselves into the pen and follow the pen", this is the choice of the students for youth in the war years; "the great practice of spilling their blood on the realization of the dream of a strong army" is the responsibility of young people in peacetime for history.
In the past few years, the people's army has accelerated its advance and has a new look: from the frequent successes of manned spaceflight to the birth of the J-20, to the official launch of the second aircraft carrier, and the continuous catch-up of the Beidou network... From the initial mule-and-horse and semi-mechanization to mechanization and informatization, the people's army, which has gone through 90 years of glory, is striving to build a world-class army.
The victory of soldiers lies in usurpation, and high-quality soldiers are the core competitiveness of an army that can fight and win wars. In integrated joint operations under the conditions of informatization, it is not only physical strength and skills, but also intelligence. Whether they are discharged from the army at the end of their service period, or whether they remain in the army to be selected as cadres and grow into the backbone of the squad leader, a group of high-quality college students have enlisted in the army, all of which have injected fresh blood into the army, stimulated vitality, and boosted the great practice of strengthening the army and rejuvenating the army.
According to reports, more than 30% of the more than 90 innovations of a brigade in recent years have come from the hands of college student soldiers.
Le Yanhui, a student majoring in aircraft design and engineering at Tsinghua University, walked into the deep mountain barracks after graduation and became an excellent missile launch commander; Peng Xuefeng, a student of Southwest University of Political Science and Law, used his knowledge to actively disseminate the party's innovative theories after joining the army and won many awards; Xu Lin, a college student soldier, grew up to be the person in charge of the "No. 1 Station" of the Theater Army and was commended by the Central Military Commission as the "Red Flag Station."
College students and soldiers have a high level of education, new ideological concepts, quick thinking reactions, and strong receptive ability, and have outstanding advantages and play an important role in learning and operating high-tech equipment, carrying out technological innovation, and promoting work innovation.
The army provided a stage for young students to display their talents, and the students underwent arduous wrestling and polishing in the army and accumulated valuable life wealth. "The military has cultivated me, and my long-distance departure is not a farewell, but the result of her blossoming." This is the feeling of Zhao Guangzhi, a student of Northeast Forestry University, after he retired from the army.
Zhou Xiaohui and Gui Conglu, retired soldiers of Chinese Min University, founded military new media after returning to school, which has now been widely concerned; the "good soldiers and smart soldiers" of that year have also grown into deputy secretaries of the Youth League Committee of Peking University...
"I hope that you will cherish the opportunity to wear military uniforms, sprinkle your blood in the great practice of realizing the dream of a strong army, display your talents on the big stage of the army, and harden into steel in the melting pot of the military camp, and write a brilliant and regretless chapter of youth." President Xi's entrustment is not only a requirement for 8 students and other college students and soldiers in Nankai, but also an expectation for all young people who have joined the army.
Why don't the boys take Wu hooks and charge Guan Shan Fifty Prefectures. All new recruits should bear in mind the commander-in-chief's earnest teachings, practice their skills on the battlefield, overcome difficulties and advance, display their talents and create practical achievements in ordinary posts, so that their youth can bloom in the barracks.
