Ali Plateau and Karakorum Mountain are high in altitude, and the oxygen content in the air is only half that of the plain. In the past, the oxygen used by border guards had to be transported from mountain to mountain through the Li Qian-Xinjiang-Tibet line. The Party Central Committee and the Central Military Commission are very concerned about the physical and mental health of border guards and soldiers. 165438+1October18th, good news came from Ali Plateau: With government officials delivering bottled oxygen from two oxygen stations, Shiquan River and Li Sanjun Camp, the border guards guarding Ali Plateau and Karakorum Mountain ended the decades-long history of transporting oxygen from the mountains, and the dream of providing oxygen on the spot and at any time became a reality. The oxygen station can produce 10 cubic meter of high quality oxygen per hour. Now, as long as the officers and men at the checkpoint make a phone call, oxygen can be sent to the oxygen inhalation room of the company on the same day, which can meet the oxygen inhalation needs of officers and men at any time. A day for the soldiers in Shenxianwan: 16 In May, I wore the rank of first-class soldier and became a soldier in Shenxianwan sentry post at an altitude of 5380 meters, and experienced a day of life in Shenxianwan with the company soldiers. At 8: 50, a golden sun poked its head out of the snow peak. A crisp whistle sounded. 10 minutes later, the soldiers shouted slogans and set off in line, first marching in a hurry and then trotting for one kilometer. I tried to follow behind the team, panting and my heart racing, and finally I was left far behind by the soldiers. Accompanied by my instructor, the party office took a brisk step and said that the post is at a high altitude, and the company training generally does not do strenuous exercise. A small run is like a walk. The soldiers practiced every day and came out. At 9: 30, morning exercises are over. The soldiers cleaned, tidied up the house and washed. 9: 50, check early. 10, breakfast, milk, eggs, 4 kinds of pickles, steamed bread, flower rolls, oil cakes and porridge. The soldiers ate with relish. 10: 30, light weapons shooting practice. The soldiers marched all the way to the shooting range. There was a light snow at the post two days ago. The snow on the shooting range has not melted yet. Liu Huaqiang, the platoon leader, organized the gun inspection and explained the demonstration essentials. The soldiers quickly practiced lying posture. I lay prone on the cold snow, and soon my stomach became cold. Under the sunshine, the strong light in the snow stung my tears. Zhang, a soldier next to him, took off his snow-blind glasses and handed them to me. Twenty minutes later, platoon leader Liu organized activities for everyone. The soldiers sat around, singing and dancing. Singing, applause and laughter resounded through the sky. 12: 30, company commander Ma Chunlin organized a tactical drill. With the rapid whistle sounded, each class divided into groups according to the battle, quickly judged the enemy's situation, and attacked the high hills separately, which was extremely fast. Liu Paichang reminded me not to run in a hurry, or I would fall down. Do not listen to dissuasion. I learned to be a soldier. I raised my gun and bent down. I didn't run two steps. My calf hit and I squatted on the ground and vomited. Five minutes later, the soldiers occupied the position and stood on the top of the mountain shouting. Monitor Wang Jiming took my hand and said, "Every day, we have to rush to the position and drill the mountain. Very enjoyable. No matter how high the mountain is, we are happy. If you can't charge head-on, is it still called the fairy bay soldier? " 14 o'clock sharp, lunch, four dishes and one soup, vegetarian nutrition. 14: 30, take a nap. 17: 00 sharp, the company patrol went to patrol at an altitude of more than 5600 meters, and I boarded the patrol car armed to the teeth. Known as the "Ark of Life", the multifunctional patrol car was distributed to the post two years ago. The car integrates oxygen supply, communication and monitoring facilities, and has high information technology content. The team leader told me that the patrol points of the company are all on the ridge above 5600 meters above sea level. In the face of heavy wind and snow, the patrol car can't reach the point, so the soldiers have to stick to it on foot. 17: 30, the patrol car stopped at a frozen lake. The soldiers walked step by step in the knee-deep snow, carrying guns and radios. I struggled to move my legs and couldn't stand the pain of lack of oxygen. I opened the oxygen bag to take oxygen, but none of the soldiers on patrol took it. Sometimes, under the repeated exhortations of cadres, the soldiers only have a few drinks. Xiong Tao, the squad leader, said: "We must hold back the lack of oxygen, and we can't patrol with oxygen bottles on our backs every day." 19: 20, we finally climbed to an altitude of more than 5600 meters. Soldiers can't rest, can't observe in the dark, can't check the scene. At 2 1: 30, we rushed back to our posts. At 23: 30, the soldiers finished washing and went to bed. At 0: 20, the party instructor inspected the shop with a flashlight and blew his whistle. Altitude sickness kept me awake all night. I took a lot of Sanlitong tablets, but it didn't work. I had to hold the oxygen generator to take oxygen and spent a long night. Looking at the night sky outside the window, I was filled with emotion. Fairy Bay is not a place where ordinary people can stay, but the officers and men who are here are defending with their youth and life with the will of "Snow Mountain Iron Man"! Modern Kunlun Goddess: The average altitude of Karakorum border defense is more than 5000 meters, and the oxygen content in the air is less than half that of the plain. From June 65438 to May of the following year, the mountain was closed by heavy snow, and the troops were isolated from the outside world. Psychological obstacles such as anxiety, depression, irritability and fear caused by harsh environment and natural conditions haunt officers and men from time to time like ghosts, and it is difficult to get rid of them. The psychological confusion of officers and men always affects Wang Rui's heart. In June, 20001year, Wang Rui went to Karakorum Snow Mountain Checkpoint for routine inspection with the medical team. All the other doctors went down the mountain, but she stayed. She visited every ice peak checkpoint on the Karakorum Mountain and left her beautiful smile to almost every garrison officer. At the same time, she also gained a lot, learned and mastered the psychological status of officers and men stationed in high altitude areas, collected more than 50 thousand words of first-hand information, and established the "psychological file of officers and men at high altitude." Goddess and the story of Kunlun Mountain: here, women are as rare as green, and they are called the "second moon" on Kunlun Mountain. The reporter walked past Jiang Yunyan, trying to interpret the deep affection and love of the female frontier soldiers represented by Jiang Yunyan from the letters from YOLO frontier officers and soldiers, a series of touching stories full of tears and Jiang Yunyan's sincere and simple words.
Zhang Ruijie, a soldier at the Shenxianwan checkpoint, said, "Sister Jiang, the comrades at the medical station brought the gloves you knitted for us, and everyone was very happy. When I stood guard tonight, I put on brand-new wool gloves, which fit me well. I have grown so big that I am the only one who knits sweaters and gloves for myself. The hand holding the gun will never freeze again this winter, sister Jiang, thank you. "
During the rounds, Jiang Yunyan was very sad to see that some soldiers had no gloves and had a lot of frostbite on their hands. Back at the station, she used her allowance to invite people to buy wool, cotton cloth, buttons and other items from the mountains, and used her spare time to knit gloves and make insoles for border guards and soldiers. The officers and men said that Jiang Yunyan's gloves were "warm".
That winter, no matter day or night, Jiang Yunyan kept knitting and sewing, her eyes were often sore and her hands were covered with cocoons. The leader of the station specially bought her a "Flying Eagle" brand sewing machine. With the sewing machine, Jiang Yunyan feels like a duck to water, and other sisters in the medical station also help her with it. All winter, they knitted thousands of gloves and made thousands of pairs of insoles. During the Spring Festival that year, these gloves and insoles were delivered to officers and men. The officers and men said happily: "Wear the gloves they knitted, and the steel gun will be held tighter when standing guard;" Insoles made of them are more practical to walk when patrolling. "
Jiang Yunyan said: "These comrades who have been standing at an altitude of more than 5,000 meters all the year round must miss their mother very much after leaving home for such a long time. I lost my mother when I was a child. Now that I am a mother, I can understand the feelings of soldiers. If I can do my best to bring the warmth of a mother's love to my comrades, I will be very satisfied. "
An Baigang, a soldier at the astronomical checkpoint, said: "Sister Jiang, even if you see a grass in this astronomical spot where the mountain is blocked by ice and snow, it will impact our hearts like the sea. The "green imagination" specimen collection you made for us is deeply loved by the comrades in the outpost class. This is the most precious gift we received this year, sister, thank you! "
On the Karakorum Mountain, it is difficult to see other greens except soldiers' uniforms. In order to let the comrades at the checkpoint see green, Jiang Yunyan and her sisters searched for flowers and plants everywhere near the medical station where vegetation could still be seen, collected them and made specimens, and posted them on a notebook with poems to make a specimen collection "Green Imagination".
Soon, the soldiers of the astronomical frontier defense company received the specimen collection "Green Imagination". "Jiangnan Water Town Map", "Spring" and "Small Bridge Flowing Water" ... The fragrance of flowers and plants quietly flows in the tears of the soldiers, nourishing their hearts like spring rain. Although the specimen is small, it brings spring scenery to the soldiers all winter.
Jiang Yunyan said: "Defensive comrades often compare themselves to' a grass on the Kunlun Mountain'. In fact, on the Karakorum Mountain, every grass is precious. Our living environment is much better than that of our comrades on the mountain. It is the responsibility of every medical staff to bring them green and hope.
Jiang Yunyan listened quietly, pouring out her sadness and troubles. Speaking of sadness, there was sobbing on the other end of the phone. Jiang Yunyan kept comforting and enlightening Xiao Liu, so that his mood gradually calmed down. At the end of the 1.5-hour call, it was 3 am, and Xiao Liu said gratefully, "My mood is much better, thank you, sister."
After this incident, border guards and soldiers will call Jiang Yunyan whenever they have the opportunity and time to tell their joys and sorrows. One day, Jiang Yunyan also received a phone call from Wang Bamu, a soldier at the first sentry post in the East China Sea. It turned out that Xiao Wang called Jiang Yunyan to tell him that there was only one military dog accompanying him where he was stationed after reading a report about Li Sanbing Camp Medical Station in the newspaper. Give him a car twice a month and bring him supplies. So, he just wants to call and talk to Sister Jiang.
Jiang Yunyan said: "When I first arrived at the medical station as a health worker, the head nurse at that time told me that I must talk to patients more. Comrades on the mountain said that the most uncomfortable thing on the border was that no one spoke. I don't understand other reasons. I only know that chatting with my comrades on the phone for a while every day will definitely make them happy. "
Qu Bo, a soldier at the Shenxianwan checkpoint, said: "I have been away from the company for more than a year, but my sister's singing often haunts my dreams. Whenever I hear the familiar song "Soldiers Go to Ali", I think of our company. I will think of the night when you sang to us on the phone. "
Living on the Karakorum Mountain, there are no birds in the sky, no grass on the ground, not enough oxygen to eat, and it snows in June. Apart from the pain caused by mountain reactions and diseases, the most unbearable thing is loneliness. One night, Jiang Yunyan, who was on duty, received a call from the Shenxianwan checkpoint at an altitude of 5380 meters: "Many comrades at our checkpoint are sick." Jiang Yunyan quickly asked, "What about the soldiers?" The other person hesitated and replied, "I have been in the mountains for a long time and I feel very depressed." I want to talk to you on the phone. " It would be better if I could hear you sing a song. "Hearing this, her hanging heart was relieved. Despite the lack of oxygen on the mountain, she couldn't help sobbing when she passed the Song Dynasty. At the other end of the phone, the soldiers burst into tears and clapped again and again. From then on, Jiang Yunyan began to consciously learn to sing and dance, and used the opportunity of patrol to perform for soldiers.
Jiang Yunyan said: "People like to listen to our songs, not because our songs are good. On Kunlun Mountain, where there is singing, there is joy. Although our songs are not pleasant to listen to, as long as they can bring joy to comrades, we will open our throats and sing for them. "
salute ...
The satellite TV receiving system allows officers and men in Shenxianwan, far away from the crowd, to watch more than 40 TV programs. Optical fiber cable paved snow-capped mountains, computers entered checkpoints, and the network communicated with the outside world.
