Corporal Li Bo of Badaguan company, a border brigade of the army in the northern Theater: only stay in love and guard the mountains and rivers
2021-12-14
On the territory of the motherland, the winding channel of Erguna River outlines the outline of the rooster's giant crown. Here, it is covered with ice and snow for more than half a year, with a minimum temperature of - 57 ℃; Here, there are a group of officers and soldiers standing like camphor Pines at the wind and snow border. In the light snow season, a sad news from the Bank of Erguna River makes this winter even colder. On November 16, corporal Li Bo of Badaguan company, a frontier brigade of the army in the northern theater, bravely saved his comrades in arms who fell into the water during his duty, unfortunately died, and fixed his 21-year-old life on the frontier line forever. He dialed his comrades in arms who had been stationed there for many years. His voice became hoarse due to grief. "When he found Li Bo, the man was frozen stiff, and his arms were still holding up when saving people..." The snow mourns the earth, and the new wind weeps the loyal soul. On the Bank of the surging Erguna River, eight officers and soldiers, including Alston, Shi Guoxiang, Luo Chaochao and Du Hong, have slept here for a long time in recent years. Today, Li Bo has become the ninth frontier guard who died here. They could have lived a peaceful life, fell in love, married and had children; They could have traveled north and south to see and enjoy the prosperity of the world. Why did they choose to guard the border and face the ice knife and frost sword? Why did they choose to be desperate and fearless of life and death? After sorting out Li Bo's relics, the officers and soldiers saw him write in his diary, "Du Hong, the motherland, boundary pillar and old company commander, they are full of my brain. They can't drive away or erase it." I believe that in those cold days, Li Bo must have tasted the story of the old company commander and thought about the significance of climbing ice and snow here and guarding the border of the motherland. On November 24, his comrades in arms saw Li Bo off. In the bleak cold wind, when the convoy escorting Li Bo's ashes passed slowly, the officers and soldiers and the masses on both sides of the road spontaneously sang the camel bell, "send off the comrades in arms, step on the journey, silent two tears..." the song echoed over Badaguan and on the Erguna River. At this time, comrades in arms patrolling along Erguna River passed the place where Li Bo died. They stopped, put on chrysanthemums, faced the glacier and called Li Bo's name: "Li Bo", "monitor" Li Bo loved the large unknown wild flowers blooming on the hillside next to the post. But he could never see the summer with the fragrance of flowers again. On the hillside not far from the post, the words "loyalty" made of gravel are clearly visible. It was carefully laid out by Li Bo with his comrades in arms with thousands of gravel more than two months ago. This is the last gift left by him after 807 days in the army. Youth takes root in the extremely cold land and blooms in the cold river. Li Bo left. When we followed him along the border line, he seemed to have turned into a star shining in the night sky, silently releasing light and heat, warming and shining on every border guard. —— editor Images of Li Bo standing guard and on duty before his death. Only leave your love to guard the mountains and rivers ■ Guo Weicheng, Zhu Ke, special reporter of PLA Daily, Fu Xiaohui The last oath for the company "I will contribute everything to the 'home' of the company" Even for private Zhang Haoqi, who lives in the countryside and has been doing farm work since childhood, becoming a soldier in the Badaguan company is harder than expected. Knowing that Li Bo wanted to stay in the team and choose to change sergeants, Zhang Haoqi issued a "soul torture": isn't it bitter here? Li Bo has his own answer to this question. Two years ago, he traveled all the way, traveling more than 3300 kilometers. When he got off the bus, he was "shocked": when he got on the bus, his hometown in Sichuan was windy, 17 ℃; When getting off, the border barracks were snowing, - 15 ℃. Wrapped in a cotton coat and trembling, his mood also dropped to the "freezing point". The first patrol, braving the severe cold of - 36 ℃ and walking in the waist deep snow sea, Li Bo had a new understanding of "one step at a time". With the long winter gone, summer is still hard. The company is stationed in Badaguan, which means "a place where mosquitoes breed" in Mongolian. A few days into the summer, under the continuous offensive of "three shifts" of mosquitoes, gadflies and small bites, Li Bo was covered with bags, painful and itchy. Li Bo really fell in love with here because he lurked on that summer night. Overhead is a brilliant starry sky, at the foot is a vast grassland, what you hear is the gurgling of boundary rivers, and what you smell is the fragrance of soil. Li Bo said that at that moment, the bitter cold and mosquitoes at the border, the hardships and bitterness of training, and the loneliness and loneliness of guarding the border "disappeared". In his heart, only the great beauty of the rivers and mountains of the motherland and the sanctity of "the boundary pillar is in front of you and the country is behind you". He is sincerely proud that he can come to the border and become a border guard soldier. "Bitter? Smell it with your nose. Even the air here is sweet!" Li Bo said to Zhang Haoqi with a smile. Like is attracted by light and heat, while love is to accept the bitterness and coldness of this land. In the eyes of private Zhang Wenda, Li Bo is small, but his body contains "great energy". Participating in the brigade communication training, he practiced receiving and setting out again and again against the sun, got up early in the morning and practiced memorizing, receiving and sending news in the dark. Starting from scratch, he just got the certificate of "excellent student". In the eyes of instructor Wang Xin, Li Bo is a hot-blooded man and excellent soldier with company as his home. The company built a new duty point, and Li Bo was responsible for laying optical cables. Optical cable connection is a fine work. A little carelessness will affect the transmission effect. In order to keep his hand feeling, he took off his gloves and worked barehanded in the severe cold of - 20 ℃ for two days, resulting in frostbite on his hands. The monitor Binlong saw that it hurt in his eyes and hurried to find Chilblain Cream for him. The most impressive thing is that Li Bo took part in the post skill competition of the whole brigade on behalf of the company. Li Bo gritted his teeth and killed the generals all the way. After waiting for the examination room, I took off my shoes, and blisters were worn on both feet. Is it bitter? Bitter. Tired? Tired. Is it worth it? worth. Li Bo's love for the border and the company has been sublimated in the day-to-day patrol in the ice and snow in winter and mosquito bites in summer. On the evening of July 12, Li Bo sat at his desk and wrote his application for staying in the team one by one: "I apply for the selection of non commissioned officers. One is not for fame and the other is not for profit. I just want to learn more knowledge and practice military skills... I will contribute everything to the 'home' of the company." After careful writing, he solemnly handed the team retention application to company commander Bao Mingming. More than a month later, Li Bo successfully changed to corporal with the third place in the general evaluation. Four months later, Li Bo died. "I will contribute everything to the 'home' of the company" became his last oath to the company. Li Bo led his comrades in arms to elaborate "loyalty" with crushed stones. The last agreement for the family "When I'm on vacation, I'll take you on a trip." "Camel bell" starts singing and goes to the Veterans' season. On September 4, the company held a retirement ceremony to see off the veterans. Take off the hat badge and collar flower, pay the last military salute to the military flag, and the veterans carry their bags back to their hometown. In the evening, senior soldiers Zhang Wenda and Li Bo were on duty at the company gate. Looking at Li Bo staring at the path in front of the camp, Zhang Wenda guessed, "it should be that he missed home when he saw some soldiers returning home in the same year." Li Bo's hometown is Yuechi, Sichuan. There are his grandparents, his parents who work day and night, and his brother who is studying in the first day of junior high school. After leaving home for two years, Li Bo missed his family very much. He saved the allowance and gave a red envelope to each of his parents on New Year's day; Summer came. He was distressed that his parents worked under the scorching sun. He bought two large space cups online; On the Mid Autumn Festival, he sent moon cakes to his grandparents Last September, when he learned that his parents bought a house, he hung up and transferred 10000, leaving only more than 200 bank card balances. In March this year, his younger brother, who learned that his math scores had not been ideal, got a good score in the monthly exam. As a reward, Li Bo immediately bought his younger brother's "jealous" bicycle for a long time. Li Bo thinks of his family, and his family also thinks of him. Not long ago, Li Bo told his parents his idea of staying in the team and electing non commissioned officers. They supported him very much and let him continue to exercise in the army. About home and country, at the company's "little story of Party History" lecture hall, Li Bo once said that many martyrs to resist US aggression and aid Korea are sleeping in the Yuechi revolutionary martyrs cemetery not far from his middle school. Most of the martyrs died in their 20s, which deeply touched Li Bo who came to visit the tomb. After a short time, the company organized to study and discuss the "hero group of defending the country and guarding the border in the new era". It was Li Bo's turn to speak. He said, "they are all my peers. I want to be a hero like them." In September this year, Li Bo went to the new duty point of the company, which is closer to the border. One day, Huang Qichen, a first-class soldier on duty, asked him, "monitor, when will you take a vacation?" Considering the heavy task of guarding the border at the end of the year and the beginning of the year, there are many major tasks and the company has few staff, Li Bo plans to take a vacation in April next year. During the chat, after learning about the vacation plan of monitor Li Bo, the soldiers at the post were excited to help Li Bo give advice and help him choose casual clothes. In order to go home from this vacation, at the suggestion of his comrades in arms, for the first time, Li Bo spent 600 "huge sums" on online shopping for a pair of fashionable "little white shoes". From small to large, in addition to the mobile phone he bought for more than 2000 yuan before joining the army, this is the most expensive "luxury" he bought. November 14 was a weekend. After dinner, Li Bo had a video call with his parents as usual. "When I'm on vacation, I'll take you to travel and buy my mother a gold necklace..." Li Bo happily talked to his parents about his "grand plan" for vacation. At this time, his brother Li Peicong came back from the outside, "Cong'er, if you do well in the final exam, my brother will buy you a computer..." Two days later, Li Bo died. These beautiful agreements can no longer be realized. In Li Bo's hometown, people welcome the martyrs home with the highest courtesy.

At 9:20 on November 16, as the duty team leader, Li Bo led top soldiers Yang Lihao, Wu Yaowei and military dog "lightning" to start the 11th border patrol of this month. Before departure, Li Bo touched "lightning" and helped his two comrades in arms to dress and wear cotton caps as usual. All the soldiers at the post knew that this was Li Bo's "prescribed action", because he patrolled for the first time, and the squad leader helped him in this way. At that time, he was completely "warmed". So Li Bo inherited this link. Like his family, young Li Bo sincerely loves every comrade in arms here. Communication soldier Chen Tengfei was a "rookie" majoring in communication at first. He asked Li Bo, the "big guy" in his eyes for advice. Without saying a word, Li Bo taught him hand in hand and gave him the "secret collection" he had saved. Today, Chen Tengfei easily "plays" with various communication devices. There were no full-time cooks at the post, and the soldiers took turns cooking. First class soldier Wang Jiemin once had a video with his parents. When asked how he was eating, he thought and said that he could eat enough. Li Bo looked in his eyes and remembered it. He asked his parents to send a lot of spices. When he had time, he made a video with his father and learned more than 10 dishes such as "boiled meat slices" and "tomato stewed beef". The day before Li Bo died, Yang Lihao and Wu Yaowei praised Li Bo's "double cooked meat". At 9:30, three people arrived near the first observation point. This summer, it rained heavily in the camp, and many small rivers, lakes and swamps suddenly appeared on the grassland. They are connected to the Erguna river like small tributaries. There are many such rivers and lakes near the new duty point. Not long ago, the resident
