The spirit of the Black Bull is not only written on the hillside, but also engraved on the fervent hearts of border guards and soldiers
2023-11-06
In late autumn, reporters from the People's Liberation Army Daily and officers and soldiers from the Bolin Border Defense Company went on patrol at a mountain pass with an altitude of over 5000 meters - the long border road was filled with loyalty step by step. Dai Xuewu took photos of the late autumn on the plateau, with strong winds blowing cold. At the junction of the peak and sky, a line of "fish belly white" appeared. In a ditch on the mountainside, officers and soldiers from the Bolin Border Defense Company of the Xinjiang Military Region quickly boarded the vehicle and headed towards the patrol destination - a mountain pass with an altitude of over 5000 meters. The patrol car left the camp and drove onto the main road, with tires crushing the sand and stones, occasionally making a "crackling" sound. Inheriting the spirit of the Black Bull and fulfilling the mission of guarding the border, these 12 red characters stand out in the light at the entrance of the camp. This is to inherit the spirit of the Black Bull. It is not only a veteran of the company, but also a hero of the company! "Second class sergeant and driver Liang Zhuang from Anyang, Henan, listened to the story of the" Black Bull "in his first lesson of enlistment - in the past, the company's construction foundation was weak, and officers and soldiers relied on a spring more than 600 meters away from the company for daily water use, and the transportation method mainly relied on people carrying horses. After arriving at the company, Black Bull independently undertook the task of transporting water under the guidance of officers and soldiers. Every time the soldier loads the water and slaps it on the back, the Black Bull can carry the water back to the company on its own, silently commuting more than 10 times a day. Later, the People's Liberation Army Daily reported on its story with officers and soldiers, and Black Bull gained widespread fame. Nowadays, the water used by the company has long bid farewell to people carrying horses. The officers and soldiers use tap water for washing, and the platoon is equipped with water purifiers... "Liang Zhuang, who joined the army in 2012, witnessed the tremendous changes that have taken place in the company. He said that not only have the daily living conditions of officers and soldiers been greatly improved, but with the distribution of patrol vehicles in teams, the patrol time for officers and soldiers has been shortened. More time can be reserved to analyze and study the border situation and improve response plans. The early morning sunlight shone through the car window, adding a hint of warmth to the carriage. The reporter saw that this road has many slopes and complex road conditions, sometimes in the shape of an "S" or sometimes in the shape of a "Z". The terrain on both sides is unique and steep, and locals call it "Ali's Heavenly Road". With patrol cars, patrol efficiency has greatly improved, "said Sergeant Ba Duolong. Previously, patrols mainly relied on horseback riding. Along the way, the wind blew mountains and rocks, and the saddle was torn and the flesh and skin peeled off. The military horses were often too tired to stop halfway. Sometimes when approaching a dangerous road section, one needs to dismount and slowly move forward by pulling the reins. As he spoke, Duolong pulled up his comrade's trouser legs and a scar appeared in front of the reporter. He said that many soldiers have fallen and been injured during patrols before, but they never complain and write down their loyalty to guarding the border and the country on the long border roads. During the conversation, the patrol car rounded an "S" bend and increased its power to rush towards a slope. On the slope opposite the cliff, the melted snow water flows down the ditch, like a pure white Hada hanging in the mountains under the sunlight. At the turning point again, the reporter looked back through the car window, and the gravel bounced off where the car passed, filling the mountains with dust. After nearly two hours of turbulence, the patrol car arrived at the temporary rest point. Tell Duolong to the reporter that this used to be an open area, and every time the officers and soldiers patrol here, it's almost noon. They take out the supplies they carry with them on the spot to replenish their physical strength. Later, considering the relatively low altitude and proximity to patrol points, they set up a makeshift tent as a resting place.
