Excuse me, is Captain Yang here? "At the beginning of last year, Yang Kang was appointed as the commander of the company by his superiors. Under his leadership, the company was rated as "four iron" exemplary organization by the superior at the end of that year. For many years, Yang Kang has had an inseparable bond with this company stationed in the deep mountains and dense forests. At the end of 2011, Yang Kang, a new recruit, joined this mountain and was awarded the third class merit twice. Due to his outstanding performance, he was recommended for admission. In the year he graduated from military school, facing multiple choices, Yang Kang resolutely decided to return to the mountains and grow step by step from a platoon leader to a company commander. Today is the regular patrol day every month. The platoon leader led the team up the mountain early in the morning and is estimated to be back in the evening. ”Director Chen, who was welcoming the reporter, immediately changed his tone and asked, "Why don't you go around the company first?" Listening to Director Chen's introduction, the reporter learned that this company is responsible for maintaining and guaranteeing the high and low voltage electricity supply in the camp. From hundreds of kilovolt power towers in the mountains to various electrical appliances in each barracks, they are all their "responsibility fields". The environment here is closed off, far away from the town, and the mobile phone signal is intermittent. Day after day, year after year, patrol soldiers climb cliffs, pass through dense forests, and travel through remote mountains. My 'good partner' Yang Kang is a cadre born and raised in this mountain. ”Climbing up the steps from the trail, Instructor Chen pointed to the clean and bright barracks not far away and said, "Many years ago, Yang Kang, as a member of the advance team, was ordered to enter the mountain and 'started from scratch' with his comrades. Due to confidentiality requirements, he could not hire an external construction team and could only do it himself. The barracks now are built brick by brick by them." Walking into the barracks, the reporter was infected by the warm scene in front of him. On the snow-white walls of the corridor, missile themed propaganda paintings painted in camouflage green are particularly eye-catching; On the windowsill, a handmade model of a "small rocket" carefully carved from bamboo has been polished smooth and shiny. In the study room, several soldiers are burying their heads in reviewing. On the table next to it, there is a stack of professional skill appraisal simulation exam papers that have been reviewed, with neat handwriting and clear annotations. Instructor Chen introduced that now the platoon takes exams every Monday, and Yang Kang sets his own questions and personally corrects them. The daily affairs of the company are complicated, why do we still have to work so hard? ”Faced with the reporter's question, soldier Gu Yipo, who was reviewing, explained: "Professional skill appraisal is the 'hard lever' for selecting soldiers for promotion. In the past, some veterans of the company wanted to stay in the team, but they had to regret their discharge because they did not pass the professional skill appraisal." Then, soldier Fang Zhikun took over the conversation and said, "After Captain Yang became the company commander, the pass rate of professional skill appraisal for company soldiers reached 100%, and no comrade left the team with this regret." Instructor Chen admitted that Yang Kang came from this growth path. He understands professionalism and knows which "stone" will hinder his progress, so he always tries his best to help soldiers step on every step of their military life. Let the whole company make progress together, not let any soldier fall behind, and turn the mission rooted in the deep mountains into a ladder for every soldier to grow and succeed. ”This is the "military order letter" that Yang Kang has given himself. Where does this confidence come from? Entering the headquarters, the reporter found the answer. On the left wall of the platoon, there is a huge "Distribution Map of Patrol Points" with red, blue, and black handwriting all over it: a small note next to a certain point reads "On July 12th, there was a crack on the base of Tower 23, which has been reinforced with cement"; Next to another section of the route, there are signs that read 'Thick autumn leaves can easily cause wildfires and need to be cleaned up every week'... 'Every time we return from patrol, no matter how late it is, we must update this map first.'. ”The document Zhang Hongchuan pointed to various points on the picture and said, "Everyone knows that eliminating one more hidden danger in peacetime will increase the chances of winning in war." Next to this picture is Yang Kang's bookshelf, which is filled with books and study notes on electrical engineering. In less than two years as a platoon leader, he has already taken 7 study notes. I stayed in the mountains for 20 years, watching Yang Kang grow step by step from a private soldier to a platoon leader. ”Second level sergeant Wu Bo recalled that for many years, the learning atmosphere in the company has been very strong, with everyone busy with work during the day and studying their majors at night. After Yang Kang became the company commander, the lights in his room often stayed on until late at night. At this point, Zhang Hongchuan pointed out the way of leading the cadres of the company: "The first level leaders set an example, and everyone is willing to follow the down-to-earth work - every time the line patrol is conducted, the cadres lead the team to the front; in winter, the squad leader is the first to go into the water..." After walking out of the company, he turned to the honor room of the company, and saw the medal of the "four iron" exemplary organization, shining golden light under the slanting sun through the window lattice - this is the first collective honor that the company has gained after the reform and adjustment. At this moment, the reporter remembered the evaluation of the company by Captain Duan during an interview at the headquarters the day before: "Garrison in the toughest place, shouldering responsibilities as heavy as a thousand tons. The higher ups awarded this honor not because they have stayed in the mountains for a long time, but because they have comprehensively built and completed tasks excellently." Unconsciously, the setting sun had dyed the mountains a golden red. Just as the reporter was feeling a bit regretful for not being able to see Captain Yang, a patrol team wearing red helmets came towards them. The officer walking at the forefront is tall, with mud covered combat boots and a large stack of cables on his back. Excuse me, is this Captain Yang Kang? ”Ask. The person nodded awkwardly and said, "Please wait a moment! I need to summarize and report the patrol situation first, and then I have time to chat with you!" Watching his hurried back, the reporter suddenly realized that the interview questions prepared in advance seemed to have been answered. Visit Captain Yang and understand 'mountain people'. They don't have grandiose words or astonishing feats, but with every day of perseverance and every footprint, they write the most loyal oath to their motherland and people on the patrol road among the mountains and forests.
