  Author Olan Zhang Wei

  At 6 o'clock in the morning, with the loud slogans, the morning exercises of the Qigan Squadron began. This is a tradition that existed at the beginning of the establishment of the team.

Today's content is a 5km outdoor run, and the dumb guy has fallen behind again.

It slowed down after the second half of the journey as usual, took a few sips of water in the blisters in the forest, and walked back to the camp alone.

  The Qigan Squadron of the Daxinganling Detachment of the Inner Mongolia Forest Fire Fighting Corps is stationed in the hinterland of the northern virgin forest area of ​​the Daxinganling in Inner Mongolia. Due to the remoteness and hardship of the station, it is called the "Lonely Forest Island" by the world.

Today, the 69 fire commanders stationed here are all "post-90s", and they are responsible for the strategic outpost of forest protection of 947,000 hectares in the forest area.

In the hearts of this group of "Northern Frontier Forest Guards", they guard the forests and the country, and fools guard them.

  Dolly's mother is a retired police dog, and his father is a Tibetan Mastiff. He has been here since he was born.

The 8-year-old is nicknamed the "veteran" by the fighters.

  "In the beginning, I kept dogs just to have a companion. It's too lonely here." Wang Yonggang, the squadron leader of Qigan Squadron, told reporters that there are at most dozens of dogs here.

"There are several of them now, and there is only one group pet, that's a dull guy."

  "It is not only our family, but also our teammates, but also another heavy guard at night." Qingwei joined the Qigan Squadron in 2015 and was initially a little scared of fools.

"When I first came, I saw it always walked in front of the building, and it was very big. But now, I love it so much."

  Qigan Squadron is located in the hinterland of Daxing'an Mountains, surrounded by mountains on three sides and water on the other. Wild animals are frequent visitors here.

Whenever the squadron perceives danger, he will bark to repel uninvited guests and protect the commanders of the squadron.

Every night comes, it is always very vigilant, staying up all night, guarding the small world of the squadron.

  "When I stand guard at night, as long as I hear the voice of a dull guy, I feel at ease and feel safe. We all know that dull guy is guarding our home." Fire commander Li Wenyu comes from a rural family in Inner Mongolia and is at home. He kept dogs when he came to Qigan squadron, and even regarded the idiots as a relative's existence and support.

He told reporters that in the dull bark, the night is always particularly at ease.

  One night last year, a wild boar was attracted to the squadron camp by kitchen waste from the kitchen. It was tall and strong, and was twice the size of a dork.

The dumb melon was injured in the process of driving away the wild boar. Now there is a significant scar on his hind leg. He limped when he ran. The commanders were extremely distressed, and they always wanted to leave the delicious food to him. Into it's mouth.

  "Early the next morning after the injury, we saw the dull gourd limping and there was a big opening in his leg. At that time, the hygienists had no experience with such wounds, so we held it down and disinfected it. After 14 stitches were stitched, other officers and fighters stood aside to cheer him up. This process must be very painful, but the dumb guy was motionless, he knew that we were also protecting it." Commander and fighter Tang Long recalled the scene at that time, still in his heart. It's a tight.

  Before the injury, the squad was the pistachio in the team: when they started singing and sang together, they would yell with the ball; they would run with the ball at the end of the game; sometimes they would be forced to take a bath with everyone; they would sleep in the corridor when they were tired. , All four feet up to the sky, the whole building can hear its snoring...

  After the injury, the dumb guy became lazy and limped a bit when he walked. Now he prefers to lie on the ground and bask in the sun, and occasionally patrol the courtyard slowly, looking extremely docile.

  Even so, it still persists in the morning exercises.

During the interview, the reporter learned that Doll’s morning exercise experience can be traced back to his childhood. Since childhood, his mother took it to follow the soldiers through the mountains and forests, in spring, summer, autumn and winter, rain or shine.

The idiots used to be able to run the entire distance, but started to fall behind after being injured.

  The idiot always loves to "snap" during morning exercises, and often drills into the surrounding woods and barks in the distance. The commanders guessed that it must have found "enemy".

"The fool is protecting us!"

  If the commanders and fighters go out to perform the fire-fighting task, the dumb guy will still follow the car as before. After watching them go far, they will silently return to the camp and guard the door, waiting for the commanders and fighters to return with "great heads".

  "As soon as the car turns into the side road, you can see the idiot standing by the side of the road and waiting for us. After getting off the car, it will circle and smell each of us, like an old squad leader, to see if they are all I returned safely. At that time, I was very tired, and I was dirty and dark, but I was really relieved, and I finally felt like ending the battle and going home." Qing Wei is now a member of the combat team, he told The reporter, after seeing the idiot, the tense nerves finally relaxed, and the big stone in my heart finally fell.

The entrance of the main building is a place where idiots often lie on their stomachs.

It is like a guard, silently guarding this world.

  "People say that it's hard work, bitter and lonely. They use'one person, one dog, one mountain, silently guarding Daxing'an' to describe life here. I know that this dog must be talking about a dumb guy." The dumb guy is referring to the soldiers. Word of mouth has long become an indispensable part of Qigan Squadron.

Nie Wenhui joined the Qigan squadron in 2020, and now he loves to talk about idiots.

"It not only gives us a sense of security, but it also cures us very much. We have to use it when we pass by during the day!"

  "Dolly Gua stayed in Qigan longer than most of us. Sometimes, I even think it is deeper than our feelings for here." Zhang Xianduo, the first firefighter of Qigan squadron to apply for admission, came to Later, I was moved by the story of the fool.

"The daily routine here is actually very ordinary. I want to live the ordinary life every day. This is actually a particularly difficult thing, but I think the dull guy has done it." (End)
