(I) The Unkilled Old Zhang

Now is a report meeting on Comrade Zhang Huangxin's heroic deeds. As we all know, Comrade Zhang Huangxin is an excellent good party member, good cadre, as well as a heroic tank player and ace pilot. Comrade Zhang Huangxin, who came from an ordinary working family, first saw the plane during his studies at school, decided to become a pilot who could defend his motherland. Since then, he has been climbing towards this goal.

The July 7 Incident broke out in 1937. Comrade Zhang Huangxin, who was studying in school, still resolutely embarked on the road to opposing Japanese fascism. In 1939, he came to Yan'an Anti-Japanese University to study. Because of his excellent grades, he was sent to the Soviet Union to study.

During his study in the Soviet Union, Comrade Zhang Huangxin was successfully admitted to the Air Force Academy and became a glorious transport aircraft pilot. At that time, Comrade Zhang Huangxin was not satisfied with this result. He wanted to become a fighter pilot and urgently wanted to fight against the fascists. Even if the hospital repeatedly refused his application, he was not discouraged. On the one hand, he completed the transportation aircraft flight study work, and on the other hand, he actively asked other fighter pilots for their own flight experience.

After the outbreak of the Soviet Patriotic War in 1941, Comrade Zhang Huangxin joined the Soviet Air Force like other Soviet flight cadets. In the following years, he went to the battlefield to perform flight missions repeatedly and miraculously escaped from death. In the two shot down, Comrade Zhang Huangxin did not give up on the battle. He took off the pilot's equipment and transformed into an excellent tank player. He destroyed the enemy's number of heavy and super heavy tanks in Paris and Berlin, which also amazed foreign friends.

After the fascist Nazi surrendered in 1945, Comrade Zhang Huangxin returned from his studies. At first, he cooperated with the instructor of Shi Nengchi to teach tank combat experience at the Northeast Tank Academy. He selflessly passed on his two combat experiences in Paris and Berlin to the majority of students, and received unanimous praise from the students.

Soon after, Pla decided to establish an air force. As a few top pilots who bleed the Soviet Union, Comrade Zhang Huangxin became one of the founders of our Pla Air Force. At the beginning of his return, he first taught transport aircraft flight methods. After that, he flew bombers and attack aircraft, killing and injuring more than 100 enemies in the Huaihai Battle, destroying a large number of tanks and a group of solid fire points.

At the beginning of the establishment of the Pla Air Force, due to the lack of experienced personnel, Comrade Zhang Huangxin, a veteran pilot, quickly changed to fighter jets. It turned out that he was also a very excellent fighter jet pilot, and he severely hit the enemy in several air combat.

During the Battle of Crossing the River, Comrade Zhang Huangxin and his comrades fought hard with hundreds of Democratic Party fighters. At that time, Comrade Zhang Huangxin was covering an injured attack plane back, and suddenly five P-45s dived from above his head. Comrade Zhang Huangxin later recalled: "The bullet flew from all directions, and my plane was knocked out. The dashboard was smashed, and one of my eyes was cut and bleeding by fragments. A burn bomb hit my wrist, knocked away the watch, and a trace of burn was slipped down on his wrist. It seemed that I was about to sacrifice!"

"I never thought it would be so long to fly over the Yangtze River, nor did I think my plane would fly so slowly. No matter how solid ash-82 engine finally carried me across the Yangtze River safely. When the pursuers had just given up on the pursuit, I happened to fly to Huaian Airport. It would be as coincidence as possible. In just two minutes, my engine caught fire, and I was still in the air more than 300 meters. I calmly pulled off my seat belt and oxygen hood and prepared to skydiving."

"As the plane was still flying at a speed of 500 kilometers per hour, I pulled the joystick and adjusted the height slightly. I turned the nose and pushed the joystick forward hard. Just as I jumped out of the cockpit, for some reason, the bottom of the parachute bag was stuck. I tried to twist my body, but I could neither go in nor get out. At this time, the nose of the opportunity had fallen above the horizon and was heading straight to the ground at an astonishing speed. Suddenly, I was pushed hard along the fuselage, and the turbid exhaust gas hit my wrist. Then I was thrown out, and I pulled the rope to open the parachute and shakingly opened. At that time, I landed without even taking a breath, and a loud bang into a dense bush."

The bushes saved Comrade Zhang Huangxin's life. He crawled out of the bushes with a shiver. What is unbelievable is that except for some minor injuries, he did not break a single bone.

This is the first time Comrade Zhang Huangxin was shot down in a fighter plane, but it is worth noting that he had shot down three enemy planes before being shot down.

The day after being shot down, Zhang Huangxin returned to the front line to continue fighting. During the battle on this day, the calmness and calmness he showed was shocking, with a strong general spirit. The situation at that time was as follows: "I led four fighter jets of the team to conduct offensive patrols. To the east of Shanghai, more than 200 meters from the coast, the flight altitude of 4,000 meters was shot by air defense fire. After climbing, he found three V-shaped formations, about 9-12-9. Through the fierce and precise air defense fire barrage, he intercepted the second V-shaped formation at an altitude of 4,000 meters. The left wing of the formation was attacked from the right rear. At this time, the p-45 was observing on the top and just entered the sunlight. He immediately turned to our flank to launch an attack. There were eight enemy aircraft, but perhaps more. The p-40 was launched on the right side.

The aircraft and the fuselage shot three times in a row. Then the right side of my fuselage was hit by fire and penetrated through the fuselage. The wire next to my seat was broken and the reflective sight was broken. I observed that one p-40 was at my right for a quarter of an hour, and the other p-40 was in the direction of my tail. I made several difficult turns and faced the sunlight. At this time, I couldn't see the second p-40. I changed the light bulb of the scope, but it still couldn't be used. At this time, a p-40 happened to enter the direction of my nose. I relied on the estimation that I fired decisively. After three shots, the aircraft exploded in the air. I immediately began to roll and circle to find another p-40, and soon found him at nine o'clock. I rushed up without hesitation, fired violently, and shot it down."

However, in the subsequent battle, Comrade Zhang Huangxin was not so lucky. After a fight in the air, he flew into the coverage area of ​​air defense fire again, and countless shells flew towards him. In just a few minutes, his car was riddled with holes. After he finally got rid of the enemy's anti-aircraft gun attack, the engine of the plane had already caught fire and burned.

At that time, Comrade Zhang Huangxin's car fell almost vertically. What's worse was that the canopy hood was deformed due to attack and could not be pushed open no matter how hard it was. Comrade Zhang Huangxin was very calm at the time. He used all his strength to pull the rod and tried his best to level the plane. After a hard effort, the fighter plane that fell head down finally recovered its control. But the height was already very low at this time. Comrade Zhang Huangxin later recalled: "I forced a landing on the beach with the ground on the belly of the plane. It was fine at first, but then it became more and more bumpy. Just as the plane was about to start rolling, the canopy that had been stuck before was finally shaken open, and then I was almost thrown out of the cabin and fell heavily on the beach."

This was another great disaster. After that, Comrade Zhang Huangxin had to go through countless similar tests in his flight career, but every time he could escape danger under extremely difficult circumstances. In 1963, Comrade Zhang Huangxin, who was upright and in his prime, was selected as one of the first astronauts in my country. In 1965, he took the Soviet Oriental spacecraft to space...

(II) The honest monk can hold on

Comrade Shi Nengchi was born in poverty and gradually grew up to be an excellent officer and a pla officer under difficult conditions. He participated in the National Defense War. Because of his outstanding merits, he was awarded the title of Soviet hero, the Medal of Venus and the Medal of Lenin by the Soviet Union, and was awarded the rank of major.

It is simply unimaginable to grow from a poor monk from a ignorant world to a highly qualified and technical cadre with high military qualities. This leap is simply unimaginable. As the first batch of armored soldiers in our country, Comrade Shi Nengzhe is a typical example of self-taught success.

After returning from the Soviet Union, Comrade Shi Nengchi first taught at the Northeast Tank School. During his time at school, he not only cultivated the first batch of armored soldiers in the New China, but more importantly, he provided countless valuable suggestions on how to build armored soldiers, laying a solid framework for the development of armored soldiers.

In 1951, the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Vietnam broke out. At the invitation of Vietnam Chairman Comrade Ho Chi Minh, the New China First Tank Brigade, which had just been established for a year, entered Vietnam to fight. As the brigade commander, during the first and second battles, Comrade Shi Nengchi led all the officers and soldiers of the brigade to overcome the adverse effects of the difficulties in fighting in jungle areas and mountains, actively interspersed forward, fully utilized the speed advantage of armored soldiers, cut off the retreat of the US Dahong First Division, and made outstanding contributions to our subsequent troops following up to eliminate the enemy.

In 1953, after victoriously liberating northern Vietnam, Comrade Shi Nengchi and the First Tank Brigade were transferred back to China. Later, on the basis of the First Tank Brigade, the First, Second and Third Tank Divisions were established, and the division commanders and commanders were appointed. In 1955, Comrade Shi Nengchi won the rank of major general.

Comrade Shi Nengchi couldn't help but have outstanding military achievements and is a model and model in terms of personal character and life. During the first award in 1955, when he learned that he had obtained the rank of major general, Comrade Shi Nengchi did not accept it immediately, but immediately wrote a letter to the military committee, stating that his qualifications were too shallow and his contributions were too little, which was insignificant compared to other old comrades. He believed that the rank of major general was too high from reality and hoped to be promoted to the rank of colonel. This kind of noble character was much nobler than that of some old comrades who wanted to be officials.

In personal life, some comrades who could not withstand the test of sugar-coated shells entered the city like those of Comrade Shi Nengchi who were lost in the bourgeois wine pool and meat forest, and still insisted on a hard and simple style. Eat and live with the soldiers, and the family's personal housing problems were also repeatedly pushed forward, and they always insisted on giving better conditions to those comrades who have made greater contributions to the revolution and the state.

In 1961, Comrade Shi Nengchi became the commander of the armored soldiers and began to actively plan the future development of the new Chinese armored soldiers. On the premise of absorbing the advanced experience of the Soviet Union, he embarked on a path of armored soldiers with Chinese characteristics. He developed a second-generation medium-sized tank that had escaped the traces of the Soviet Union...

In 1979, Comrade Shi Nengchi successfully commanded the second self-defense counterattack against India, annihilated the Indian invading troops that invaded our country, and recovered a large area of ​​illegally occupied land in southern Xinjiang and southern Tibet. He transferred a large number of Indian troops fighting with Pakistan from the front, greatly alleviating the situation in Pakistan, thus making outstanding contributions to the realization of the Indian-Pakistan ceasefire. In that year, Comrade Shi Nengchi was promoted to the rank of general and served as commander-in-chief of the army.

(III) Diplomat Mao Weiguo

Comrade Mao Weiguo was not only an excellent member of the Communist Party of China but also an excellent diplomat. During World War II, Comrade Mao Weiguo went abroad to study and joined France in France. During the fall of France, he participated in the resistance organization of the French Communist Party and fought a arduous battle with the Nazis. During this period, he was imprisoned and tortured by the enemy more than once, but he was able to uphold his ideals and never surrender to the enemy.

After the victory of the war, Comrade Mao Weiguo continued his previous studies in France. Three years later he obtained a master's and doctoral degree. After that, he refused France's happy attempt to stay and resolutely returned to the motherland with his wife and children.

After returning to China, Mao Weiguo first worked in the Ministry of Machinery Industry, and then was transferred to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs because he was familiar with the language of four countries. During the Geneva peace negotiations in 1953, he participated in the meeting as a Chinese representative, winning legitimate rights and interests for the Vietnamese people and promoting the withdrawal of US troops from Vietnam.

In 1979, as Foreign Minister, Comrade Mao Weiguo adhered to principles while not losing flexibility. He continued to deal with India around the issue of armistice and demarcation, used various iron facts to counter all illegal requests from India, and resisted the diplomatic pressure exerted by Britain and the United States, and safeguarded national sovereignty in a clean and beautiful manner. In 1984, in the negotiations with Britain on the revocation of Hong Kong, he withstood the pressure from all sides and used practical means to force Britain to give up his attempt to continue colonizing Hong Kong. After the meeting, British Prime Minister Thatcher accidentally fell in front of the Great Hall of the People due to the huge pressure brought by Comrade Mao Weiguo.

In 1985, Comrade Mao Weiguo was elected as the executive vice premier of the country, assisting Comrade Xiaoping in thoroughly implementing reform and opening up, embarking on a new path of socialism with Chinese characteristics, and allowing China to maintain a GDP growth rate of 10% in the next thirty years. It is particularly worth mentioning that Comrade Mao Weiguo always strictly demands himself with the standards of a member of the country and never seeks personal gain for individuals and families. It is his example that he has stopped the trend of reselling in the mid-to-late 1980s and has truly become a good prime minister for the people. (To be continued.)
