Dai Shengtang's comrades-in-arms spoke

  Dai Shengtang's comrade-in-arms made a speech entitled "Memories of Deep Comradeship, the First Friendship Begins", he said:

Dear comrades-in-arms and military wives: Good morning!

  Time flies, time flies, we have fought side by side in our military careers, and we have experienced many unforgettable moments together. In the past years of the army, all the officers and men of our Seventh Company have made indelible contributions to the construction of the motherland's railways, participated in the construction of the Xiangyu Railway and the Shatong Railway, and in the construction of the Lengshui Tunnel, Lengshui Bridge, Dianchenyu Bridge, Chaoheguan Tunnel and other projects, in the era when the construction conditions were backward and difficult, the officers and men relied on air guns to blast holes, pick up ballast, iron basket ends, and bucket carts. There we left behind our hard sweat and blood, and the young lives of some comrades-in-arms were fixed next to the railway.

  After the military was reorganized, some comrades-in-arms returned to their hometowns, and through their own efforts, they achieved very good results, and some participated in politics and were promoted. Some of them became bosses in enterprises; Some became the president and party secretary of the hospital; Some of them participated in finance and became leaders in the bank, some still worked as farmers, and some of them served as party branch secretaries in the village for many years. What's more, we, the old comrades-in-arms, are now able to come together and gather together in a healthy way, which makes us feel extremely happy and happy.

  Today, although we live in the southeast, northwest, and northwest respectively, our comrades-in-arms and military wives are over the age of sixteen, and most of our comrades-in-arms may be in their prime, and our comrades-in-arms have changed from young soldiers in the prime of life in the past to gray-haired old men with children and grandchildren. Under the wise leadership of the party, we have caught up with the good times, the society is rich and the people are strong, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the comrades-in-arms and military wives are happy and peaceful, all of them are radiant and heroic. We must be grateful to the Communist Party, cherish the hard-won happiness of life, and veterans must always follow the party and always be the cornerstone of social stability.

  Although decades have passed, the deep comradeship will always be engraved in my heart. This is the years of our fighting, leaving us with indelible memories, it can really be said that there is a virtue called comrade-in-arms, there is a kind of touching called comrade-in-arms care, and there is a kind of concern called comrade-in-arms. In order to strengthen the connection between us and relive the past eventful years, the first comrades-in-arms meeting of the 7th Company of the 65th Regiment of the 13th Division of our former Railway Corps was held in Huairou, Beijing in June 2024.

Only some of the comrades-in-arms came today, and there are many comrades-in-arms, some of them are due to physical reasons, some because they have to take care of their grandchildren at home, etc., they were unable to participate in this gathering, here we would like to express our cordial condolences to them and their families, and wish them good health and happiness for the whole family.

Our old company commanders, Yang Yongren and Li Haixian, could not participate in this comrade-in-arms gathering for various reasons, let me take them to say hello to their comrades-in-arms and military wives, and also wish the two old company commanders good health and a long life!

  The purpose of this gathering is to provide a platform for everyone to meet and communicate, so that we can gather together to share the bits and pieces of our military career and participate in society, and share our life experiences and insights. We believe that on this special occasion, we will be able to feel once again the deep and more unforgettable military years and the more and more cordial comradeship.

Once, we walked side by side, arm in arm, through that period of hardship and glory of the railway soldier career. In those years, we struggled and worked together for the construction of the country's railway, and we paid our youth and sweat.

  Today's gathering is to reminisce about that good time and share each other's growth and changes. No matter how many years in the future, we all want to say, yesterday we fought side by side, today all the way, our old comrades-in-arms, it's good to have you!

I propose that in the future, if conditions permit, we will choose an appropriate time and place to meet again, continue to talk about our deep friendship, and make due contributions to carrying forward the spirit of the railway soldiers and inheriting the culture of the railway soldiers.

  Finally, let us send the auspicious wishes in our hearts and the good wishes in our hearts to everyone, and sincerely wish all our comrades-in-arms, military wives and their families good health and family happiness!

At the end of the meeting, also in the form of a tea party to let comrades-in-arms, military wives speak freely, first Comrade Xia Xianquan as a representative of comrades-in-arms made a speech, he first congratulated the holding of the first friendship meeting, he expressed his gratitude to the preparatory group for careful arrangement, serious organization, warm hospitality, he briefly introduced his hometown in the hospital as the president and party secretary of the work.

After today's meeting, we must follow the itinerary and arrangement, conscientiously implement it, organize it closely, and the members of each group in the division of labor must be conscientious and responsible to ensure that this gathering is completed safely and smoothly and achieves the expected goal.

  The comrades-in-arms spoke on behalf of Comrade Xia Xianquan, and other comrades-in-arms also made brief speeches, and I felt very good.

On the afternoon of June 23, comrades-in-arms and military wives also visited the Huairou Reservoir, and they could see the panoramic view of Huairou City on Longshan. During the visit, everyone felt the great changes in Huairou for decades, and also felt the embodiment of the prosperity and strength of the motherland. On the way back to the hotel, comrades-in-arms and military wives also visited the largest shopping mall in Huairou, Jingbei World Beijing, and everyone felt that compared with the department store on the commercial street more than 40 years ago, there had been a great change.

  On June 24th, according to the schedule of the meeting, comrades-in-arms and military wives took a bus together and went to the former site of the Chenyu Company in Miyun Bulaotun Palace. When we arrived at Bulaotun, a Shanxi Zhao Chunhai comrade-in-arms who got married and settled in Dianchenyu greeted us warmly, and warmly wanted to entertain us for lunch in Bulaotun Street. The couple was reluctant to agree. Chunhai comrades-in-arms and their couples drove their tricycles in front to lead the way, we finally arrived at the destination of the former site of the Dianchenyu Company, where the past barracks were unbelievable, the rows of small bungalows of the company have long been gone, and what appeared in front of everyone was a cornfield, the corn seedlings grew green and green, and this land happened to be the land of the Chunhai comrades-in-arms. The old instructor Dai Shengtang introduced to you that this was the company headquarters of the year, and that place was the barracks dormitory of the first, second, third, and fourth platoons, and in front of the company headquarters was a large playground, and below was the cooking class, the room and the family room. With the instructor's fingers, everyone seemed to hear the sound of the military horn and the pace of the exercise, and seemed to see the scene of a class of comrades-in-arms eating in a circle, the comrades-in-arms and military wives were in a very uncalm mood, the team leader shouted to everyone to take a group photo, the comrades-in-arms and military wives were still thinking about the past, and the team leader shouted again loudly to everyone to take a group photo, and everyone woke up. Comrades-in-arms and military wives lined up in an orderly manner, Xia Xianquan, Wang Xiangen and other comrades-in-arms held selfie sticks and raised their mobile phones to take videos and photos for everyone, leaving beautiful moments.

On the return trip, we came to the Dianchenyu Bridge we built that year, just at this time a train (passenger car) passed through the bridge, the comrades-in-arms grabbed this shot, we remembered that countless trains carrying passengers and goods passed through the bridge we built, how a sense of accomplishment we had, this is the witness of history, the great achievements of our railway soldiers, forever.

After seeing the old site of the company, when the veteran team returned with the car, some comrades-in-arms proposed to go to the former site of the second battalion headquarters to see the soldiers' and horses' camp, and the team leader met the requirements of his comrades-in-arms and military wives, and asked the master to drive the car to the soldiers' and horses' camp. On the way back, the car was moving fast on the road, and the comrades-in-arms and military wives were still reminiscing about the military life in the past, just like a movie......

On June 25th, according to the requirements of comrades-in-arms and military wives, they have not been to Tiananmen Square for many years, and they want to see, in order to meet everyone's wishes, according to the itinerary, comrades-in-arms and military wives are ready to take the booked bus early in the morning to set off, ready to travel Tiananmen, before departure, the team leader suddenly heard a bad news, saying that you must make an appointment in advance to go to Tiananmen, before that, this was not expected, the team leader heard the news, and was stunned, the team was about to set off, how to make an appointment, and how to operate, We were sweating profusely! As the saying goes, there is no endless road, and at this moment I heard a good news, Ms. Liu Chunhui, the lobby manager of the Hongjude Hotel where we stayed, said to me: "Uncle Zhang, you are going to Tiananmen, there is still some time, I will help you make an appointment, you quickly get a few mobile phones and ID cards", at this time, Manager Liu, put down all the work at hand, in the lobby, spent nearly an hour, for our 46 comrades-in-arms to book tickets to Tiananmen, then I was relieved. I said to Manager Liu, this is your work outside of your class, let's give you a little hard money, Manager Liu politely declined. Later, I proposed several times to let all my comrades-in-arms applaud and express their gratitude to Manager Liu, and we really admired Manager Liu's service attitude that exceeded the customer's wishes.

  After we arrived in Beijing, the driver master considered the traffic regulations and parking convenience, parked the car in the southwest corner of Tiananmen Square, after we got off the car, ready to line up from the southwest corner of the square into Tiananmen Square, when the line to the entrance, the square staff told us that there are activities in the west square in the control, can not go in, he told us to detour, we had to along the sidewalk on the south side of the square, walk around to the east side of the square, along the east side of the detour to Chang'an Street, and then prepare to enter Tiananmen Square, our comrades-in-arms, The military wives are all over the age of the sixtieth year or the old man who is over the age of old, although the long distance walking, are very hard, but we do not have a bitter, the comrades-in-arms carry forward the fine style of the army training and marching, and finally walked to the northeast corner of Tiananmen Square, at this time to line up for verification before entering Tiananmen Square, at that time the queue here is crowded with tourists, our comrades-in-arms, military wives are sweating profusely, the queue has been more than an hour, the queue tourists can not see the edge in front, can not see the tail in the back, It is expected that there will be three more hours will not be able to enter, at this time, the leaders of the team agreed, cancel the arrangement to Tiananmen Square, fortunately we are in the position, can clearly see the Tiananmen Tower, comrades-in-arms stood on the inside of the railing, took a few group photos, comrades-in-arms, military wives thought, finally saw the Tiananmen Tower.

Due to the time relationship, in the afternoon, the original plan to see the bird's nest, had to cancel the itinerary, ready to return, but our bus is not able to go Chang'an Avenue, but also have to return to the original parking position, if you walk from the northeast corner of Tiananmen Square to the southwest corner of Tiananmen Square on foot, the comrades-in-arms and military wives are really unbearable, after all, everyone is old. After the discussion of several leaders of our team leader, we took the subway to the front door and got off the station to the parking position, which was much easier, and not far from the subway entrance, we finally got on the bus for our return trip.

  On the return car, comrades-in-arms and military wives were thinking that the situation has changed too much now, a few decades ago, Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City, and the National Museum could all be entered and exited at will, but now these places have to be booked in advance and verified, and it is still difficult to enter with so many people. Originally, we also planned to have arrangements for climbing the Tiananmen Tower, but we made an appointment eight days in advance according to the online information, and when we reserved the fourth ticket, there was no way, so we had to cancel the arrangement to climb the Tiananmen Tower.

  Although the comrades-in-arms and military wives failed to enter Tiananmen Square, climb the Tiananmen Tower, or see the Bird's Nest as they wished, they saw Tianmen in the distance and took photos and took a group photo. Although the comrades-in-arms and military wives have some regrets in their hearts! But we can understand that there are more people traveling today, the country is rich and strong, and there are more friends, and then there are more foreign affairs activities of the country, and our Tiananmen Square is more solemn, and now the country is a legal society, and Beijing is more strict in management than in the past, which shows that our country is thriving and thriving. The comrades-in-arms and military wives did not complain, everyone thought, let everything be as it is......

On June 26th, according to the itinerary, we visited the Mutianyu Great Wall and Yanxi Lake, because these are all in the Huairou area, we are more familiar with it, and it is relatively smooth, but the comrades-in-arms and military wives have the wish of "not going to the Great Wall is not a hero". Due to various reasons, some comrades-in-arms and military wives climbed the Great Wall on foot, and in the process of climbing the Great Wall, the most worthy of praise was Mr. Dai Shengtang, the honorary chairman (former company instructor), who was already a 75-year-old man, who climbed the second beacon tower of the Great Wall and took a group photo with his comrades. Most of the comrades-in-arms and military wives who had not swam the Great Wall climbed up, and everyone watched the scenery and took pictures on the Great Wall, and had a good time. The Great Wall, the majestic project, the great monument, the wisdom of the ancestors, the heritage of the world, the pride of the motherland, comrades-in-arms and military wives are worth the trip.

In general, comrades-in-arms came to Beijing from all over the country, but everyone "didn't eat roast duck, not to Beijing; If you don't go to the Great Wall, you are not a hero".

  In the afternoon, I traveled to Yanxi Lake, comrades-in-arms, military wives mainly looked at the international conference center, many comrades-in-arms are the first time to come here, when we heard the narrator's introduction, here is the mainland to implement the "Belt and Road" and other major international conferences are held here, many heads of state come here to hold a meeting, comrades-in-arms, military wives are extremely excited, all are proud of it, our country is strong, this is our country in front of the world, is the country's image of the tall highlight.
