[Exemplary demeanor] A certain unit of the Rocket Army is ready to fight at any time. It has completed major tasks for dozens of times. It was recognized as the "Top Ten Sword Sharpening Pioneer Battalion" by the Rocket Army, awarded the honorary title of "Missile Launch Pioneer Battalion" by the Central Military Commission, and was recognized as a pacesetter unit for the whole army to implement the goal of building a strong military in 2019. In the south of China, the night is dark, and a rocket army department organizes night fire assault drills. Missile chariots, like steel dragons, galloped towards the position. Occupying positions, erecting missiles, "igniting" firing... Sleepless all night, officers and soldiers returned to the camp after completing the exercise task. At the gate of the camp, the bright red "0" on the countdown board is particularly striking. "There are '0' days to go before the next war!" Chief Sergeant He Xianda has been in the army for 26 years. He said that this sign always reminds officers and soldiers that every day is the day of war. For the officers and soldiers of the Ministry, everyone has their own understanding of what the word "0" on the countdown board means. "'0 'means to remain in a state of impending war, always ready to go to war," said Li Dawei, a cadre of the Ministry of Defense. "The rocket army is the core force of China's strategic deterrence, the strategic support for the status of a major country, and an important cornerstone for maintaining national security. To take charge of the long sword of a big country, we must always keep the ready state of being ready to fight. In the midsummer of that year, the Ministry travelled thousands of miles to the northwest desert for training. When they arrived at the camp, the sun was burning and the heat wave hit, but they did not immediately set up camp. Instead, they quickly carried out equipment maintenance and troubleshooting to ensure that the missile chariot remained in the best condition. As expected, the guidance and dispatch team suddenly issued the order of "switching deployment to implement fire assault drill". The officers and soldiers quickly withdrew and transferred to the designated area, and successfully carried out multiple waves of "fire assault". Periodically test the communication equipment to ensure real-time smoothness; Keep the kettle full and the fuel tank full at all times... The reporter looked at the work log of the department and found that the details of military training and preparation were standard and detailed, close to the actual combat. The officers and soldiers of the Ministry said that only when the equipment is used to the extreme, the skills are trained to the extreme, and the preparations are made, can we win at the critical moment. "The more solid the preparation work is, the closer we will be to the battlefield." In the eyes of Yuan Yiguang, the cadre of the Ministry, "0" has a deeper meaning - the "zero" distance from the battlefield. That year, Yuan Yiguang was appointed as the deputy instructor of the Ministry. When eating, he found that sometimes there are more meat dishes than vegetables, and sometimes there are more meat dishes than vegetables. "After the weekly combat readiness training plan is issued, the cooking class will carefully prepare the recipes according to the training items and training intensity," said Zhu Mingjiang, the provider. Yuan Yiguang said with emotion, "The cooking class is all about fighting!" Last year, when the second-level sergeant Chen Qiqian participated in the equipment emergency repair drill, he found that taking off the combat equipment and drilling into the vehicle bottom for maintenance would delay a lot of time. "The launch of missiles requires a very high time. We must seize every minute to complete the launch task." So Chen Qiqian and his comrades gathered their wisdom to tackle the problem and designed an extension wrench. With this wrench, officers and soldiers can repair equipment without drilling under the vehicle, effectively shortening the maintenance time. Over the years, the Ministry has steadily promoted the adjustment of command, combat readiness, training mechanism and mode, and continuously narrowed the distance between training and actual combat. After the new equipment is installed,
