Our houses are the coordinates on the border line. Let's work together to defend the land, protect the ecology, and maintain the peace of the border Looking far into the valley, the autumn border is full of vitality. In the Tianbian Pasture at the foot of Nanjabawa Peak in Nyingchi City, Xizang, a "red small grazing house" with red walls and blue tiles stood quietly, and the voice of Qiao Sen, the political instructor of a border defense company in the Xizang Military Region, came from the house. On this day's "Border Pastoral House Military Civilian Classroom", he organized officers and soldiers to study border defense policies together with villagers from Qionglin Village, Nanyiluoba Ethnic Township, Milin City. The small grazing house is a common resting place for local farmers and herdsmen when grazing. In the border area of Milin City, there are hundreds of small grazing houses like these, scattered around the patrol line of border officers and soldiers like coordinates on the border. For decades, small grazing houses have been a "front-line outpost" for herdsmen to stay overnight and for officers and soldiers to rest. Patrol border officers and grazing villagers often meet here, where they not only relax and warm up, but also learn theories and complement each other's resources, establishing a deep military civilian friendship. In the new era, the military and civilians have deepened their joint construction activities, worked together to transform and upgrade 32 small pastoral houses, and built a grid system of "red small pastoral houses" border service stations that integrates four functions: "theoretical services, convenient services, rescue services, and border patrol services". Four hotlines have been established, covering 170 kilometers of border defense lines, making the small pastoral houses on the border a new battlefield for learning the theory of the Communist Party of China, building grassroots organizations, promoting civilization, and guarding the sacred land together. Last October, when Nima Ciren, a villager from Qionglin Village, arrived at the border to graze, he suddenly encountered heavy rain, and 11 yaks were still missing until late at night. Nima Tsering called the Xiaomu House hotline to request assistance from border officers and soldiers. The officers and soldiers of the nearby outpost immediately went out to help him recover all the lost yaks in the rainstorm overnight. The next day, Nima Tsering and her family made a special trip to the outpost to thank the officers and soldiers: "If we hadn't contacted the People's Liberation Army, our losses would have been huge! With the small grazing house, we can graze more safely." The small grazing house has been upgraded to a border service station, providing more security for herdsmen to graze on the border and further weaving the border control network along the border.
