A big meal on the train
Zhi Maochun comes from the famous New China No.1 Workover Team in Yumen Oilfield.
1in March, 960, the first batch of teams following Yumen Oilfield to support Daqing Petroleum Battle boarded the train and went to a brand-new battlefield. On this train, he met a celebrity and had a full meal with a question mark on it.
Zhi Lao said: "In that year, a train transported six drilling teams and/kloc-0 workover teams in Yumen Oilfield, with about 300 people.
"At that time, there were many teams and many leaders who led the team. When several leaders study things together, they often pass by our carriage. At that time, when a middle-aged man with a forward hat and a northwest accent passed my seat, my brother opposite me greeted him. I didn't know it was Wang Jinxi until I asked.
"Although all work in Yumen, I only know Wang Jinxi, but I haven't seen him. He was a representative of the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce in Yumen Oilfield, and was also invited to attend the National Day ceremony in Beijing, which was a supreme honor in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China. I'm a little excited to see him so close.
"At that time, the food was tight, and the food of our secret service passengers was completely limited. Two meals a day, two loaves in the morning and two loaves in the afternoon. Bread is soft and small, only as big as the palm of your hand. You can swallow one in one bite. But according to experienced old comrades, chewing bread in your mouth for a while will increase your satiety, but your stomach is empty. The bread enters your mouth and slips into your stomach without chewing it carefully.
"Young men in their twenties often scratch their heads with hunger when they eat this kind of food. Every time the train stops, we open the window, not to catch our breath, but to see if there is food on the platform. But there are no sellers on the platform.
"It's really disappointing. A colleague called me and asked me to go to the manager's car to do me a favor. In the past, the logistics people brought some bread to the manager, and the manager said he was not hungry. I didn't even think about it, so I said,' Will you give it to me?' The manager looked at me and nodded. I ate and thought, there are people who are not hungry these days. Too fresh! Anyway, with a little help, I feel good after eating my stomach.
"I thought that when I came to Daqing, I could have a good meal with an open stomach, but the food here is also tense. Hungry, after the autumn harvest, I went to the field to dig some frozen potatoes and cooked them to satisfy my hunger.
"What is more tangled is to catch up with the dinner of the zero class. Faced with two thin wowotou, I always hesitate again and again: if I have dinner, I will be hungry in the middle of the night; Don't eat dinner, leave Wowotou until midnight, and the hunger for dinner is unbearable.
"This state is not a day or two, but it has lasted for two or three years. Until 1964, family members and units planted land, and with self-produced food, the stomach that has been hungry for many years has the conditions to let go of eating. "
A suit of "ice armor" does not shrink back.
During the period of 1964+00, Daqing Petroleum Battle Committee promoted layered water injection technology in the whole oilfield in view of the serious situation that the crude oil production decreased due to widespread water injection in oil layers, and organized underground workers to divide10/water injection wells into 444 intervals, which was called "layered water injection" in history.
The old man said, "I am the monitor of the first underground operation team." 1964 165438+ When the Battle of October started, it was the coldest three or nine days. In order to successfully complete this battle in just two months, we put forward:' Wearing ice cream, snow can't blow in; The slogan "Sweat like rain when working, and the north wind is an electric fan" has people in every well, including day shift, night shift, zero shift and class shift.
"In those days, there was a jingle describing our workover workers:' Sweat in sunny days, mud in rainy days, ice in winter, and oil all year round.' It's bitter.
"On one occasion, I caught up with the zero shift. In less than half an hour, the lever cotton-padded jacket was covered with water, mud and oil sprayed from the bottom of the well. Soon the mixture was frozen hard by the cold wind.
"In the wilderness, there is a well room nearest to us. But the oil worker on duty was afraid of being covered in oil, so we went to the well room to keep warm and locked the door when we left. Because the oilfield was being standardized at that time, the well room and equipment were required to be spotless.
"I can understand this. At that time, the post responsibility system inspection was quite strict, and no mistakes were allowed. People just clean up, even if he doesn't lock the door, we won't easily break into their work area.
"But, in addition to the well room, there is no other place to go, so we have to stand up, in situ hard or skipping, wriggling in the frozen cotton-padded jacket, just feel warmer.
"The sleeves of the cotton-padded jacket can't bend back because of the cold, so we will knock off the ice floes with pipe tongs with our companions. It is rare to knock 13 and 14 times a night. At that time, in order to successfully complete this layered water injection work, we completed the operation tasks of each well to the letter in this extremely difficult environment. "
Love at first sight is accompanied by old age.
At the beginning of the battle, there were more men than women in the oil army. It has become an unavoidable problem for working-age workers to find a partner.
The old man said: "At that time, in the oil field, I really answered the sentence' 100 women ask for help'. There is not much amateur cultural life, and it is getting boring every day. Who found the object, what it looks like, who introduced it, where it came from, and even whether there are other sisters at home have become hot topics for bachelors lying in bed. Whenever they talk about it, the smell of jealousy will come to their faces.
"I was in my twenties, and in those difficult days, I certainly longed for beautiful love. Listen to this every day, go home to visit relatives, and bring back a daughter-in-law, the sister who happened to visit relatives in the oilfield on the way. It was love at first sight, and my heart itched.
"People say that a good meal is not afraid of being late. It's all yours. Sooner or later, you can't get away. I didn't expect anything good.
"196 1 year, I often go to the drilling crew for workover, and I am very familiar with the drilling workers. One of my eldest brothers, my later brother-in-law, has a good impression on me. When chatting, I knew that I was not married. He told me that he had a sister who was starving because of the famine in his hometown. He ran out with him, wanted to eat enough, got married in the oil field and asked me if I wanted to see him.
"Big brother said politely. I was not allowed to be picky at that time. I hid my joy and simply said, "All right!"
"The girl looks good, which makes me happier. When two people communicate, they are completely in the same language. After all, their hearts seem to be getting closer and closer. The bride price in the girl's hometown is fashionable, which stumbles me.
"At that time, I was just a third-class worker with a monthly salary of more than 50 yuan. Except for the food cost of more than 20 yuan a month in the canteen, plus the money sent back to my hometown to honor my parents, my pocket is basically empty. I really told the girl's family that although I can't come up with such a large sum of bride price money at the moment, I will be responsible for the living expenses of the older generation for a long time after I get married. At first glance, I am really an honest and kind young man, and my aunt didn't say anything. So, this girl is my wife now.
"Although we didn't spend much time together before we got married, we have been married for 5 1 year and our feelings have been very good. I didn't break my word either. In the most difficult days, my wife and I scrimped and saved and mailed them to our parents. I always give more money to my parents-in-law than to my parents. At present, the younger generation in the husband's family has big and small affairs, and we old couple still try our best to support them. This is also a reward for my parents-in-law to tolerate me and give my daughter to me with confidence. "
Red inheritance
They have an iron will.
Narrator: Zhihongquan (the son of Zhilao)
People in those days were not made of iron, but forged steel-like bodies in the storm of hard struggle. For three days and nine days, they wore "silver armor" outside their cotton-padded jackets and fought in the front line of workover.
They are flesh and blood people, but they have the iron will and the spirit of hard struggle, and have written magnificent poems for the early prosperity and prosperity of new China with their own lives.
We are sincerely proud of having such predecessors. Sometimes on business trips, many foreigners will ask Daqing, Iron Man and Daqing's development today and in the future. I will tell him that in this land of Daqing, the fine tradition known to the people all over the country during the oil war has not been lost, and it still exudes youthful vitality in Daqing. Generations of Daqing successors like me are striding forward on the road of the new era along the footsteps of Daqing spirit and Iron Man spirit.
