2022, facing the sun ■ PLA Daily reporter Chen Xiaojing Heart has sunshine, life is sunshine. A light rose on the horizon and then turned into a sea of light. At this moment, we met the first ray of sunshine in the new year. Mountains and rivers wake up, snow peaks are dyed gold, and glaciers shine brilliantly; The grassland is quiet and beautiful, waiting for the return of spring. In the distant sea, the surging white waves release their enthusiasm and push the new year's blessings to the reef and coast again and again. On the plateau, snow capped peaks embrace the sun and baptize the holy face. Facing the rising sun, there are always such a group of trekking figures. Deep in the snow sea, vast Gobi, on the banks of islands and reefs and on snow peaks, even if the road ahead is difficult, they still firmly move forward in the face of the sun - because the motherland is behind and the boundary pillar is in front. The same morning, the same sunrise, witnessed the unrepentant adherence of border soldiers. They face the sun, because they know that the other side of difficulties is the courage to overcome difficulties, and the other side of difficulties is the pride of having fun in hardship. Their hearts, clear love, only for China. In the new year, facing the sunshine, they still smile at the wind and snow and meet the challenge. There are countless people in the distance who live a life of perseverance and take struggle as normal. No matter how the years change, the tenacity of never giving up and sticking to the end is the sunshine that dispels all the haze. Facing the sun, we usher in 2022. In the new year, the special edition of China's border will continue to meet with you the young comrades in arms who stick to the border in the distance. Listen to their stories, see their footprints, share their youth value and life attitude, and feel their life and harvest. In the new year, we will invite military journalists to talk about their relationship with the border, and present more border style, scenery and human feelings for you. In the new year, our column will usher in new faces. "Meet in 2022", "2022 frontier military song", "frontier geographical Chronicle", "listen to border guards", "see", "express", "hold a pen" and "interesting stories"... The special edition of China frontier will present the spiritual world of border guards in a multidimensional perspective. In the new year, we will focus on the development of border and coastal defense construction, convey the style of grass-roots construction, and make the border a window. Through this window, we can feel the pulse of the development of the motherland, feel the warmth of life, and feel more driving force to move forward. 2022, let's pack up and start again. Face the sun and move forward. As a philosopher said - time will give you the answer. Look at the sunshine at the "sunshine post" ■ Suo Yanke, Dai Xuewu, Feng Hao The cloud of the post. The spangul border defense company of Xinjiang military region has a duty point, which is called "the farthest and most difficult place" by the officers and soldiers of the company. There is a lack of oxygen and water, but there is never a lack of joy in the hearts of our comrades in arms. This is the highest altitude of the company. Ultraviolet leaves "plateau red" on the soldiers' faces, making their smiles look more pure, sincere and lovely. At the beginning of the new year, sentry commander Shi Jingming and his comrades got up early in the morning. On this day, the company's vehicles transporting materials are about to go to the sentry post. The sun shines on their faces and the warmth is written in their hearts. Shi Jingming and his comrades in arms are on patrol. The world is covered with sunshine The sun rises and shines on the snow capped mountains on the plateau. In the eyes of staff sergeant Shi Jingming, in the blink of an eye, the sun "jumped" to a position higher than the mountain. Shi Jingming has been stationed on the plateau for 12 years. As usual, he narrowed his eyes, raised his head and let the sun shine on his face. For a moment, his world was covered with sunshine: moisture was evaporated, cold was melted, loneliness was dispersed... The sun came and the world was bright. Every year, this plateau duty point will usher in the first ray of sunshine of the new year in this way. Being comforted by the sun, Shi Jingming's heart is happy and warm. He likes the sun and always looks at the distant mountains when the sun rises. There is a long border line, where he and his comrades in arms watch. Standing on duty at a point not far from the post, Shi Jingming knows that the responsibility lies in the distance behind him, where there are the eyes of the motherland and relatives. The place Shi Jingming sticks to is the farthest duty point of spangul border defense company. Not far from the point, a plank house stood on the wasteland, smoke was rising from the chimney, and the comrades in arms were making breakfast. A dirt road extends from the duty point to the door. Shi Jingming and his comrades in arms patrol between the post and the point day and night. Gradually, the road became clearer and clearer under their feet. The sun witnessed their persistence and the road witnessed their growth. When they went to the sentry post in winter, they trudged in the snow in full gear. When they returned to the company, their training clothes were often frozen into ice lumps. Facing the sunshine on the sentry Road, there is also warmth. "Bathing in the sun all the way, the training clothes will emit a fresh smell of sunshine, just like the smell of drying quilts at home when I was a child." Shi Jingming said. That day, the company selected soldiers on duty. "The highest altitude is the hardest..." the company commander described this duty point during mobilization. Remembering the sunshine on the way to the sentry post, Shi Jingming, who volunteered, said to his comrades in arms: our duty point is called "sunshine sentry post", which sounds very warm. There is no one near the post. Shi Jingming often stands on the top of the mountain and watches the migration of flocks of yellow sheep. After dinner, he sent a message to his mother in the dormitory: "Mom, I saw a group of yellow sheep running away. I saw the grandeur of heaven and earth and felt the greatness of life." The officers and soldiers of the post received the materials sent by the company. A happy dinner time. The sun shines into my heart When the snow falls on the plateau, the duty point is like a boat in the snow sea. In the early morning, Shi Jingming put on his coat and went out of the plank house. He saw a vast expanse of white outside the house. Back in the room, Shi Jingming gently awakened his comrades in arms from their sleep. Several people split up to clear the snow and check the monitoring equipment. Tightening the cotton sleeve around his neck, Shi Jingming and private Dawa CIREN walked one after another. Home in Dawa CIREN in northern Tibet, I am familiar with the wind and snow on the plateau and adapt to the thin air. Not long after he left the company, Dawa CIREN was assigned to Shi Jingming's class. The young man doesn't talk much and laughs like the warm winter sun. Every time he went out on patrol, Dawa CIREN followed Shi Jingming closely. During a patrol, the cold wind kept people's eyes closed. Shi Jingming, who led the team, was burning with anxiety. "I've been looking for yaks in the mountains with my father since I was a child. In this weather, we know how to distinguish the direction." Following Dawa CIREN, Shi Jingming was much calmer. Soon, they found a mountain pass to take shelter from the wind until the wind and snow passed. That night, Dawa Ziren told Shi Jingming many childhood memories. Dawa CIREN's home is snowy in winter. As a herdsman's child, he and his brother have been herding in the mountains since childhood. "In high school, I always dreamed of becoming a soldier." Dawa CIREN's words made Shi Jingming feel the same. When he was a child, his biggest dream was to be a pilot. "When I was a soldier on the plateau, I didn't become a pilot, but I never regretted it, because I didn't know how warm it was without experiencing the severe cold, and I didn't know how sweet happiness was without experiencing difficulties." Patting Da Wa CIREN on the shoulder, Shi Jingming said with a smile. The plateau veteran liked the song "the sun is always after the wind and rain", and preferred the sentence "how to see a rainbow without experiencing wind and rain" in "true hero"... On that snowy night, Dawa CIREN learned to sing these two songs with the veteran. "Persistence can usher in the sunshine after snow." At this moment, the song crosses the river of memory, and the ear is the "creak" sound of stepping on the snow. Snow poured in from the mouth of the boots, and Shi Jingming and Dawa CIREN were silent all the way. It's not "Apprentice" but more like "brother". Shi Jingming and Dawa CIREN have a tacit understanding. This time, after debugging the monitoring equipment, the wind and snow became heavier when returning to the camp. Shi Jingming tied a backpack rope to their wrists respectively. They are the "only teammates" of the other party every time they go out of the task. Back to the plank house, their feet and shoes were frozen together and couldn't take them off at all. Sergeant Pu Kaiqiang and senior soldier CIREN dobujie brought hot water to warm their soles, and then carefully helped them take off their boots. The next day was a sunny day. Shi Jingming woke up, looked at the snow outside the window and thought of his sister who worked hard in Shenzhen. When he turned on his cell phone, a message jumped out and he smiled. It was a greeting from afar. Shi Jingming felt that the sun shone into his heart. Dawazren and little black, a military dog. Sunshine is an attitude towards life In the twilight of the morning, the shadow of the plank house was pulled very long, extending all the way to the path in front of the door. This road ties the eyes of officers and soldiers. On weekdays, supplies are transported to the sentry post through this path. Last summer, Shi Jingming and his comrades in arms renovated the road. A few months later, the sentry post in the snow mountain has a taste of home. It is said that plateau defense is "soldiers watching soldiers during the day and stars at night". As a monitor, Shi Jingming tries his best to enrich his spare time life. Dinner is the only "reunion dinner" for the guard soldiers in a day. Shi Jingming prepared the menu a week in advance and several people took turns cooking. Every day for this meal, they will prepare carefully and try to achieve complete color, aroma and taste. "Colorful Radish", "Kung Fu cabbage" and "Ganma potato"... A week before New Year's day, the recipe of the post came out. These dishes that sound "unusual" actually come from ordinary ingredients sent by the company. Garrison life remains unchanged, adding "flavor" to life is a kind of fun in Shi Jingming's view, "the secret of happy defense lies in everyone's down-to-earth attitude, and ordinary days need sunshine". After dinner, Shi Jingming will share beautiful articles and stories with you. That year, it was snowing heavily and Shi Jingming was homesick. He was so bored that he read and excerpted. When he changed his defense, he brought back a large "golden sentence". Stationed at the post, Shi Jingming often shares his "golden sentences" with his comrades in arms. He found that young comrades in arms are eager to understand the outside world and have a strong sense of value for positive energy. "It's fun to tell stories to young people, which is also a learning process for me." Shi Jingming said. Optimism is like sunshine in life. In the eyes of his comrades in arms, monitor Shi is always happy and won't frown easily in case of any difficult thing; Two Tibetan guys can't speak Mandarin well, but they are practical and sincere to people; Pu Kaiqiang likes listening to pop music and chasing plays. He always says, "my world must be full of sunshine". Every Saturday, Shi Jingming will download movies for everyone to watch in the dormitory. At this time, the outpost surrounded by mountains is always full of joy. Pu Kaiqiang, who likes painting, buys a set of materials and pigments from the Internet and sends them to the sentry. As soon as the weekend came, Pu Kaiqiang unfolded the drawing paper and outlined a red sunset glow on the drawing paper with gouache. "The beauty of the sunset on the plateau is known only to those who stay here." He said. Pu Kaiqiang's paintings. Photo by Suo Yanke Wish in the sun When he first arrived at the post, Dawa Ziren's greatest wish was to do everything well. The board room has a small space, and the water storage bucket is placed outside the board room. Every morning, dawaziren is responsible for breaking the ice to get water. He struck with a hammer a few times, and the bucket was cracked. At noon, the ice melted and all the water in the bucket leaked... Seeing this scene, dawazren sat on the stairs in front of the plank house and cried. Comrades in arms are out on patrol, Dawa
