Liu Xin, Liu Fang, Zhu Chengeng
Walking into the tenth squadron of the fourth squadron on duty of the Shanghai Armed Police Corps, “red” can be seen everywhere: volunteer guides active in the red sacred place, national flag squad guarding the five-star red flag, and honor room with red blood... every red mark , All reveal the unique red temperament of this squadron.
They raised the banner, set the banner even more, learned party history to build loyalty, and always walked in the forefront.
Bright, pure, red, which symbolizes faith, is the loyal background color of this squadron that has never changed.
Since stationed on Nanjing Road in 1982, the squadron has been awarded the honorary title of "Eighth Model Squadron of Nanjing Road Learning" by the Armed Police Forces. It has won the collective first-class merit 3 times, second-class merit 11 times, and third-class merit 19 times. It was awarded 26 consecutive times. The superior was commended as the "Grassroots Construction Model Squadron".
Touch
Coming to the honor room of the squadron, the red display board on the right is "Eight Lian Ode" by Comrade Mao Zedong; on the left side of the relief wall, "Eight Lian on Nanjing Road, a new generation under the neon light" 14 golden characters are eye-catching.
In the honor room, 144 bright red pennants are shining, 105 objects and 176 photos, telling the glorious history of this squadron.
Li Haojie, a 20-year-old new soldier, did not expect that a photo in the honor room could ignite a "flame" in his heart.
It was a black-and-white photo: By the rain-washed streets of old Shanghai, a unit was lying on the cold and wet ground and sleeping in their clothes.
Instructor Yang Zenan told him that this photo was taken when the People's Army liberated Shanghai in May 1949.
In order not to disturb the people, the officers and soldiers strictly abide by discipline, do not enter the houses and sleep on the streets.
The predecessor of the squadron was in this team.
Seeing this photo from 72 years ago, Li Haojie's heart could not be calm for a long time: What kind of army is this!
Half a year in the squadron, it wasn't just this photo that touched him.
On the playground of the squadron, there is a 100-meter-long party history road. Two-meter-high, big red display boards are neatly arranged on one side of the road, condensing the centuries-old history of the Chinese Communist Party.
In the squadron’s stairs, dormitories, canteens, and study rooms, the study of party history can be seen everywhere.
Three minutes before meals every day, officers and soldiers will take turns to share short stories about party history.
Li Haojie, from the old revolutionary base, shared the story of "Yimeng Hongsao Ming Deying rescued the Eighth Route Army soldiers with her milk" for the first time.
What he looks forward to most is the weekly party history education class.
The atmosphere in the classroom is warm, and you can not only hear the battle stories of the revolutionary predecessors, but also exchange learning experiences with comrades-in-arms.
If the flame in Li Haojie's heart has just ignited, veteran Wang Kairui has found the way to his spiritual home.
This young man, who has been in the army for four years, has served as a volunteer interpreter for the Memorial Hall of the Communist Party of China since last year.
The squadron is 1.5 kilometers away from the Great Memorial Hall of the Communist Party of China. It takes about 2,000 steps to walk about 18 minutes.
He has measured more than 50 back and forth along this road.
Every time he goes, he has an inexplicable excitement.
To understand the party’s centuries of struggle, it seems to start from the road under his feet, and that end of the road is his inexhaustible spiritual treasure.
Once, in order to clarify the story behind the typewriter used by Comrade Li Dazhao, Wang Kairui spent nearly 10 days consulting many teachers and commentators, and flipping through nearly 40 books.
When someone asked him if he was tired, he smiled and said, "I'm not tired of it!"
On June 9th, the 100th issue of "Bing Ge Said Party History" produced by the officers and soldiers of the squadron was launched.
This series of short videos, called "Internet Celebrity Party Lessons", has been highly sought after once it was launched, with more than 300 million views.
At the moment when the 100th issue went online, the upper class soldier He Jun's eyes were red.
Last year, he took the initiative to sign up to participate in video creation, followed the creative team to consult more than 40 books such as "Modern History of China" and "A Brief History of the Communist Party of China", and visited 26 red venues in Shanghai, including Mao Zedong's former residence, Zhou residence, and Chen Wangdao's former residence.
He Jun said: "Every time I make a video, I seem to have traveled to the age of enthusiasm, dialogue with the'new youths' of a hundred years ago, and feel the power of faith."
Sow fire
In early summer, there was a crowd of people in the Great Memorial Hall of the Communist Party of China.
An upright armed police soldier is explaining.
His voice was loud and whispering, and he calmly responded to visitors' questions, drawing compliments from time to time.
This college soldier who graduated with a major in broadcasting and hosting was named Li Shuai, and he was the 100th volunteer interpreter trained by the squadron.
In October 1998, the Memorial Hall of the First Congress of the Communist Party of China began to expand, and 30 officers and soldiers of the No. 10 Squadron on duty assisted in the construction of the venue.
After the completion of the construction, the construction aid officers and soldiers submitted to the memorial hall an application to be a voluntary interpreter.
Now more than 20 years have passed, one crop after crop of officers and soldiers have preached the party’s history in red venues such as the First and Second National Congresses of the Communist Party of China, expressing the soldiers’ pursuit of faith.
They passed on and became a propaganda team worthy of the party's voice.
No. 30, Lane 7, Old Chengdu North Road, the birthplace of the first party constitution of the Communist Party of China, and the site of the Memorial Hall of the Second National Congress of the Communist Party of China.
Yin Yiteng, who has been retired for three years, has won praise here.
At the beginning of 2018, an old man in his 80s came to the Memorial Hall of the Second National Congress of the Communist Party of China and stopped outside the Party Constitution and History Hall.
Yin Yiteng, who was working as an instructor in the hall, quickly stepped forward to inquire.
The old man looked into the exhibition hall and said that he wanted to hear the story of Zhang Renya, the guardian of the first party constitution.
Yin Yiteng immediately helped the old man into the hall to visit and gave a detailed introduction.
After the story was told, the old man was very excited and revealed his identity-Zhang Shihua, Zhang Renya's nephew.
He took Yin Yiteng's hand tightly and said: "You speak so well! I feel relieved that there are you in this exhibition hall!"
Since the end of 2017, Yang Zenan, the instructor of the Tenth Squadron, as the representative of the poverty alleviation cadres of the Shanghai Armed Police Corps, has gone to Sede Village, Lushui City, Nujiang Lisu Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province 3 times to provide counterpart assistance.
Yang Zenan knows that the strength of the grassroots comes from the organization, and to help the villagers eradicate the roots of poverty, the first step is to build a strong party organization.
Therefore, every time he goes to Sede Village, he will carefully prepare special party classes, actively participate in organizational life, and build a battle fortress against poverty with the villagers.
In a party class, villagers asked: "What are the first and second congresses of the Chinese Communist Party?"
The idea of "Teaching the villagers a'cloud party class'" was born in Yang Zenan's heart.
Under the coordination of his efforts, the villagers “visited” the Memorial Hall of the First National Congress of the Communist Party of China and the Memorial Hall of the Second National Congress of the Communist Party of China on their mobile phones, and gained a more intuitive understanding of the magnificent history of the party.
"The'Cloud Party Class' is hot!" said Da Pafu, deputy secretary of the Party branch of Sede Village. "This makes us feel much more profound."
In April 2020, Sede Village took off the poverty label.
Before June 1st last year, Yang Zenan came to Sede Village with a gift and danced the local Guozhuang Dance with the children in the village.
When parting, the little girl Qiao Yan took Yang Zenan's hand and said, "Thank you, I will also pass on love like you in the future."
From downtown to mountainous areas, the officers and soldiers of the Tenth Squadron chanted the story of the party history from north to south.
Shi Songhua, 31, is now a fourth-level sergeant of the "Red Eagle Commando" of the Public Security Bureau of Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province.
10 years ago, he served as a volunteer squadron lecturer on party history at the memorial hall.
Now, he has become a "red boat guard", guarding the red boat beside the South Lake in Jiaxing with his comrades.
Shi Songhua feels that this is a special kind of fate.
Shi Songhua has vividly remembered the days of serving as a volunteer interpreter, and the party history he has talked about has long been carved into his bones, and he will never forget it for a lifetime.
Now, he often teaches party classes to colleagues and lectures on party history to children in nearby schools.
He said: "Tell it when wearing a military uniform, and you can't forget it even if you take it off. It is the duty of every party member to tell the story of party history well."
Practice
In the minds of the officers and soldiers of the Tenth Squadron, learning party history to build loyalty must be implemented in training troops and preparing for war and completing tasks.
The 400-meter obstacle course of the Tenth Squadron is different from the standard obstacle course: the length, width, and depth are 2 meters each. The trench that was supposed to be a "pit" has become a high platform.
why?
After listening to the introduction of the squadron leader Wang Hao, the squadron was located in downtown Shanghai. The underground was a rail transit pipeline, and the trenches were changed to high platforms. Although the training sequence has changed, the standards have not changed.
The lack of space once restricted the improvement of the military training level of the squadron.
The officers and soldiers showed the enthusiasm of "No conditions, create conditions, but also practice!" In 2019, the current obstacle course was designed and built.
The narrow ground cannot stop the enthusiasm of officers and soldiers for training.
Wang Hao said: “Although the camp is only 100 meters before and after, shooting training cannot be carried out normally, but everyone uses their brains and thinks of tactics to make a scaled down target. Even if it is impossible to go out for running during the epidemic, the stairs and dormitories can also become our training soldiers. Big stage."
The Tenth Squadron is responsible for patrolling Nanjing Road, performing duties at key rail transit stations, and raising and lowering the national flag of People's Square. It has a special location and heavy responsibilities.
In order to perform its duties and perform its duties better, the squadron focused on the characteristics of the mission and explored the formation of "12 tricks for guards and sentries to prevent attacks" and "6 steps for patrol missions to deal with in 1 minute". Everyone has a clear understanding of the terrain, social conditions and methods of handling the mission area. ", to ensure that they are dispatched quickly and win quickly in case of circumstances.
On New Year's Day last year, class 6 monitor Chen Xin was on duty outside.
When the sentry was handed over, an unregistered person followed the staff in an attempt to take the opportunity to get in.
Chen Xin dashed forward and shouted loudly: "Stop!" Blocking the person out of the door, the whole process only took 3 seconds.
He said that if he practiced well on weekdays, he would be able to do his job well in situations.
Learning party history and casting loyalty is also the spiritual motivation for officers and soldiers to overcome difficulties.
Corporal Jin Hebo, after enlisting in the army, was thinking about getting into the military academy.
In 2020, he learned that he had failed the exam and fell into depression for a while.
Soon after, with the encouragement of squad leader Wang Zhongzheng, he took up the post of an instructor in the Memorial Hall of the First National Congress of the Communist Party of China.
In the explanation, he relived the tragic years over and over again.
The moving story of the communists' sacrifices for the revolutionary faith, their fearless spirit and firm will, gave him the courage to face setbacks.
He immediately submitted an application for joining the party, and once again began to work in a high spirit.
He said: "Our party has gone through many difficulties and dangers to establish today's great achievements. I cannot be defeated by this setback right now!"
Studying the history of the party creates loyalty, and makes the officers and soldiers of the squadron forever connected with the people.
For 39 years, on the 20th of every month, the Tenth Squadron has carried out service activities for the people on Nanjing Road, leading more than 100 units and more than 1,000 volunteers to participate in the activities. The service content has gradually expanded to more than 80 health, law, and psychology. Let "China's First Commercial Street" shine with a new style.
After the outbreak of the new crown pneumonia, the squadron was unable to focus on serving the people as usual, but some unknowing residents would go to the original service point on time. Some even called the squadron to inquire, worrying that the troops would move to a place and never again No chance to meet.
"The army built by the party must breathe with the people and share a common destiny." Wang Weiqiao, the current squad leader of the "Lei Feng Squad" of the Tenth Squadron, said that after the epidemic prevention and control entered the normalization stage, everyone immediately adopted a "small group and multi-channel" approach. , Go deep into communities and enterprises to develop services for the people, and try new "point-to-point" and "menu-based" service models.
Knowing that the armed police officers and soldiers came to the door to provide services, many residents waited on the roadside early.
They said that this is a feeling that is hard to give up.
