In the past two years as a soldier, Liao Wenying called this island a "second home", and all the officers and men of the company called this isolated island a "home".

Therefore, Liao Wenying, a junior born in 1995, came to the military camp and put on the military uniform that "all men will envy and feel handsome". "Here, you can make yourself feel youthful."
Liao Wenying majored in design at Guangxi University. In his junior year, he signed up for the army and was assigned to Haiphong Company, a brigade of the Army, and was stationed in Dongzhou Island, Hainan Province. Since then, he has embarked on a youthful journey of courageously entering the "Tianya".
This is a "lonely" and glorious company.
Dongzhouzhou Island is the southernmost tip of the army’s coastal defense, and it hangs alone overseas, so it has the reputation of "Tianya Sentinel".
Speaking of glory, Dongzhouzhou Haiphong Company has participated in the Liberation of Harbin, the Battle of Liaoxi and the Battle of Pingjin. In 1953, it was ordered to station in Dongzhouzhou Island, and it has been more than 60 years.
The company is famous for its bravery and good fighting skills, and there are many fighting heroes. It has been awarded the honorary titles of "Four Excellent Model Companies", "Can’t Beat Six Companies", "Model Six Companies" and "Model Coastal Defence Company in Dongzhou" by its superiors. More than 10 party and state leaders, including Liu Shaoqi and Ye Jianying, visited the company for guidance.
In the past two years as a soldier, Liao Wenying called this island a "second home", and all the officers and men of the company called this isolated island a "home".
"Either wear a suit to strategize, or wear a military uniform to defend the country." One sentence inspired the blood of college student Liao Wenying. "I want to wear military uniforms and shoulder greater responsibilities. That kind of life is more challenging."
When I got home and told my parents about joining the army, my family was surprised. Why are you suddenly going to be a soldier? Seeing that Liao Wenying was determined, the comrades of the armed forces also came to work as fathers at home, and the family immediately expressed their support.
Being a soldier is glorious. "In our village, I was the only one who joined the army. I was also a college student in the village, and my sense of glory doubled."
When sending soldiers, I walked in the street wearing big red flowers and caught many villagers and students seeing them off. Parents are in the farewell crowd, waving with everyone.
I was reluctant to see my mother crying at that time, but this sense of honor could not be replaced.
Before joining the army, my parents didn’t say much. They simply said, "Do a good job in the army."
There is a sentence that makes him remember more deeply. "Don’t tell your family if you suffer more, just do it well in it."
"When I go to the army, I don’t believe that there is anything bitter. Everyone is human. What others can do is not necessarily worse than others. I have to challenge all kinds of impossibilities."
"We must strive for the first place in the barracks, ‘ When you see the red flag, you have to carry it, and when you see the honor, you have to fight for it ’ Everyone is like this. "
In the just-concluded half-year military assessment, Liao Wenying won the first place in the whole brigade.
"There is nothing special about taking the first place. It is nothing more than insisting on others. Everyone can see your persistence. It is impossible to be discouraged when others win, and proud when others lose. "
"Before I compare with others, I just finish my small goal first." Now, Liao Wenying’s small goal is to join the party.
Here, party member is talking about contribution and sacrifice, and his consciousness is really different from others. "What troops must contribute to the company to join the party, give full play to their own specialties, and accept democratic evaluation.
Liao Wenying is always talking about his "little dream". When I was in college, I wanted to study hard for four years and graduate smoothly. The second little dream is to find a better job after graduation and end up as a soldier. My little dream after being a soldier is to get the first place at ordinary times and be rated as the top ten in the whole brigade.
"But I’ve been thinking about what my big dream is. In the future, I may want to design a house of my own in my hometown. "
The handsome Liao Wenying doesn’t have a girlfriend yet, but he is quite satisfied with his "conditions".
"We are very popular as soldiers. I think we are particularly handsome and have special temperament. When veterans return from the army, their attention is also very high. But listen to them, it is not easy to be a military wife. If you love her very much, you are not willing to let her wait for you for two years. "
When talking with Liao Wenying, his speech speed is neither fast nor slow, and he has both agile thinking and the calmness of the soldiers who "Taishan collapses in front without changing color". After 95, his temperament overwhelmed his peers.
What he learned in the military camp for two years, he thought, far exceeded the previous three years of college. That’s completely incomparable. There is a teacher in every course in the university, but in the company, everyone is your teacher, and everyone has special skills. If you contribute enough to learn, it will be different every day.
The military camp taught him the most responsibility. After two years, he felt that he was more mature, and his mentality of doing things and looking at things was different.
Before he came, he didn’t believe that the military camp had such power to change his personality. The ordinary young man who used to get up and play mobile phone to chat on WeChat, order takeout at noon and sing karaoke at night.
"At the local level, many things pass us by, so we can ignore them. But not the barracks. It’s too important to be here. Especially when you do something wrong, admit it. "
He said shyly, "I didn’t dare to tell my family what I did wrong outside before. It’s different here. If you are wrong, you must say it. Many people will help you correct it, and everyone will take you to the right track. "
Taking responsibility is also a responsibility. "You are responsible for this forest. If a tree dies, it is your responsibility. You must try your best to save it without any excuse. “
"Here is to take care of each other. The squad leader takes care of the vice squad leader, and the vice squad leader takes care of the soldiers. We can make progress and grow together. Outside, if you do something wrong, no one will say you. Here, as long as you do something wrong, many people will point it out and make sure you correct it. Therefore, any difficulties are not considered as difficulties in front of the collective. “
At present, the company is dominated by post-1990s soldiers, but there is no saying that post-1990s soldiers cannot adapt.
"When you come, you will adapt. The army specializes in all kinds of maladjustments. I think autism, arrogance, etc. will get better when you come here."
"As soon as you blow the trumpet, you have to get up immediately. You are assigned to your work every day. You don’t want to do it, but you have to do it with high standards. You can’t have a small temper, and some will get rid of it. In the end, there will be no work that you are unwilling or unable to do. "
"Clothes should be washed every day, and no one can help you wash them. You can’t be lazy at all. Everything is organized. If you make a list, you must do it according to the list, and the habit will be formed day by day. “
At first, Dongzhouzhou Island was a desert island, and the company was self-reliant and built all its military and living facilities. Now the island is built like a garden, and all the equipment is available.
"Thanks to the veterans. They are much more bitter than us, and the construction work outside the previous training is more arduous. "
"When I went to the island, although I had built most of it, I still didn’t do a lot of construction. Bombing yard, cement road, post … … All the facilities here are built by ourselves, without any machines. We can’t rely on anything across the sea. At most, the company will call an outside machine, and the fighting car is our most advanced machine. "
Liao Wenying and his comrades-in-arms jointly built a bomb field. After starting work, I went to the seaside to move stones every day. The temperature on the island was high. At noon, the stones were sunburned. If I held them, it would be hot and my gloves would be worn out quickly.
Although we have worked hard to build a military camp, the training can’t be left behind. No matter the time or intensity of daily training, the thunder can’t move. "We are called training, work and life here."
Liao Wenying’s two-year compulsory service is about to expire, and there is still one year of study to be completed, writing papers and doing graduation projects, which is no different from local college students.
In the future, I may stay in the army or return to the local area. In short, I will "listen to organizational arrangements".
If you go back to the place, you will also do your work well. Liao Wenying said formally, "You can’t forget your home here."
If there is a war, the call will come back. Veterans have such a plot, not only a plot, but also a question of responsibility. "Back to the place, if one day the country really needs me, it must come back, and it must come back." Speaking of which, Liao Wenying’s voice unconsciously improved.
"This is the home where you lived. There are so many ordinary people around you, only you have taken a gun, who will go if you don’t go? I came back without notice. "
I used to feel a little touched when I watched the veterans’ videos on the Internet. Only when I became a soldier did I realize all kinds of feelings inside.
I have participated in a veteran’s farewell. "They cried their heads off and suddenly left. The feeling is unspeakable."
Asked the veteran, "What if you stay here?" The veteran said, "If you stay here, you will continue to work hard. But it was too late, and the order came down. "
On the East Island, across the sea, the bustling city is full of lights. Being able to stand loneliness and yourself is the basic quality of a soldier and a good soldier.
"Compared with the outside company, we know that there is less information from the outside world, but we can still learn from the Internet. Seeing high-rise buildings has nothing to attract us. My home is here. There is no need to go there. Even if you go, you still have to come back. "
The results of the first assessment of the whole brigade have been announced, but they have not been posted yet. After winning the first prize, Liao Wenying said "losing".
He said, "Youth is not afraid of losing. If you lose, you still have a chance. If you don’t lose, you won’t win."
In the occasional contact, my classmates also told Liao Wenying to join the army. "I don’t envy me. They think that if they can also experience two years of military career, life may become different."
