Character experience

Xu Honggang joined the army in December 1990 and served in a red army with a glorious tradition. He pays attention to high standards and strict requirements everywhere, and strives to be an excellent soldier. Although he was eager to become a scout, he still worked hard after being assigned to the communication company and was rated as "excellent student" and "hard soldier". Xu Honggang was concerned and considerate. He used his massage and acupuncture expertise to relieve his overworked comrades. On Sundays and holidays, he rushed to work and let others rest. When he became the monitor, he set an example and walked ahead everywhere. Although his life was not rich, Xu Honggang gave generously when his comrades in arms had difficulties at home. Due to his outstanding achievements and political maturity, Xu Honggang joined the Communist Party of China in July 1993. on August 17 of the same year, Xu Honggang, a sergeant monitor of a Red Army communication company in Jinan Military Region, returned to the army from his hometown. When his bus arrived near tiesuoqiao, Xunsi Town, Junlian County, Sichuan Province, several gangsters in the bus suddenly extorted money from a young woman. When she was rejected, the gangster played a hooligan on the woman and pushed her out of the speeding car. At the moment, Xu Honggang dozing in the corner was awakened. Seeing this, Xu Honggang rushed forward and yelled: "stop it, don't play like this!" Seeing the interference, the gangster focused on Xu Honggang. After two slaps, Xu Honggang's face was hot and blood oozed from the corners of his mouth. In order to protect other passengers in the car, he did not fight back immediately. The gangster's arrogance increased and continued to push the woman out of the car window. Xu Honggang's bounden duty made him unable to remain silent any longer. He kicks one of the gangsters in the back and kicks him back. He punches another one on the chest. Unexpectedly, two gangsters sprang out from behind, one hugged Xu Honggang's leg, the other stuck his neck. The gangster surnamed Ren, who was the first to provoke, took out a dagger and stabbed Xu Honggang in the chest. At this critical moment of life and death, Xu Honggang has only one idea: fight with them! In the narrow carriage, the fists and feet could not be used. Four gangsters surrounded him and fiercely stabbed Xu Honggang in the chest, back and abdomen the blood dyed his camouflage clothes red, as well as his seat and floor red. The intestines run out of the badly injured abdomen. The driver stopped the car. The gangsters fled one after another. At this time, Xu Honggang, who had 14 knives in his body and had his intestines flowing out of his body for 50 cm, miraculously wrapped his waistcoat around his intestines, then jumped out of the car and chased forward for more than 50 meters with all his strength, then fell on the roadside Heroes save people and people love heroes. When the incident happened, local government agencies, hospitals and the masses took action one after another: Zhan Benfang, deputy director of Junlian County Taxation Bureau, rushed Xu Honggang to the town hospital. After the hospital examination, Xu Honggang was seriously injured in 14 places, and was stabbed 8 times in the chest alone. The knife closest to the heart was as deep as 8 cm, and one had already injured his lung. The abdominal laceration was 4cm. In order to ensure the safety of Xu Honggang's life, the medical staff stopped the bleeding, suspended the infusion bottle, and immediately set out to the county hospital for full rescue. After hearing the news, the county leaders immediately instructed the relevant departments to save the people's hero at all costs. They used the county's most skilled doctors, the best drugs, the most high-end instruments, as well as 50000 yuan specially allocated by the county Money as treatment funds, after the hospital president and vice president four hours of struggle, finally took Xu Honggang back from the hand of death. The County Public Security Bureau dispatched an elite team to arrest all four criminals including Ren Yonglin after fighting for seven days and six nights in a row. Hundreds of people go to the hospital every day to visit the heroes, including the elderly, adults, children, beggars and even deaf mute people who have to bow before they go Xu Honggang's heroic deeds were widely reported by central news organizations around the Spring Festival in 1994.

General Secretary Jiang pointed out that "the deeds of Xu Honggang and others embody the tradition of our Communist Party and the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation." Xu Honggang won the titles of "young hero for a just cause" and "commando of the national new Long March".

Charge before disaster

"The society has given me great care and the people have given me a second life. I must repay the society and serve the people with a heart of gratitude and a feeling of innocence." This is Xu Honggang's real idea. in August 1998, the Yangtze River had a huge flood, and the troops were ready to go after receiving the order of flood fighting and emergency rescue. Considering Xu Honggang's physical condition, the organization arranged him to stay in the rear. As soon as Xu Honggang heard this, he was worried. How could he stay in the rear when the masses were in the most critical situation? He applied to the Communist Youth League Party committee and strongly demanded to participate in flood fighting and emergency rescue. On the evening of August 21, the wind and rain, flood overtopped the dike, Jingjiang dike appeared extremely dangerous situation, once the dike burst, the consequences are unimaginable! Danger is an order. Xu Honggang volunteered to be the commander of the battalion commando team. With more than 80 commandos, each carrying 50 kg sandbags, he ran back and forth in the knee deep mud. Regardless of his body, Xu Honggang gritted his teeth and kept fighting for 36 hours until he collapsed on the levee. On May 12, 2008, when the Wenchuan earthquake occurred, Xu Honggang, who had just been promoted to the post of deputy political commissar of a red army in Jinan Military Region, was staying in the grass-roots company. He eagerly found the political commissar of the regiment: "15 years ago, it was the people of Sichuan who gave me the chance of rebirth. They had suffering. Please organize and arrange me to join the first echelon." Early the next morning, Xu Honggang and his officers and soldiers rushed to the disaster area. He encouraged everyone: "the lives and property of relatives in the disaster area are suffering heavy losses. One minute earlier, one more person can be saved!" In order to speed up the March, he arranged for two drivers to drive each car in turn. In order to avoid the delay of cooking, he ate dry food on the car. In only 26 hours, they trekked 1200 kilometers and arrived at Zipingpu Reservoir in Dujiangyan City. Then, immediately on foot to the hardest hit Yingxiu town. the mountains were high and steep, the bridge collapsed, and the roads along the line were seriously damaged. Xu Honggang and his party crossed the mountains and finally arrived at the disaster area of Yingxiu town at 5 p.m. that day. At this time, they received a notice from the higher authorities, asking them to rush to gingko township to give food and medicine to the trapped people. Because the road is blocked, the people there have been out of food for two days and lack of medicine. It should not be too late. The division headquarters used three "fasts" in the notice and brought them a simple road map. after more than six hours of arduous trekking, Xu Honggang and more than 260 officers and soldiers of the Red Army finally arrived in Yinxing township. The local people held them in their arms and cried bitterly, thanking them for sending life-saving food. They were wearing raincoats that night and living in a crumbling gas station. the face of difficulties and hardships shows heroism. On May 27, 2008, Xu Honggang again volunteered to lead the officers and soldiers to carry out the grain transportation task. With the experience and tenacious will of the previous walks, they crossed the valley of death twice and delivered more than 5000 kilograms of food and dozens of boxes of medicine to the victims, relieving the urgent need of the victims. They were sweating in hot days and mud in rainy days, and their clothes were wet and dry, dry and wet. In those days, they also transported and built more than 500 tents and transported more than 50 tons of materials. The leaders of the headquarters praised them: the Iron Army deserves its reputation!

Fulfill one's duty

as a deputy to the National People's Congress of the garrison in Sanmenxia City, Henan Province, Xu Honggang did not forget to perform his duties as a deputy while the military was rushing. there is a dry river named Jianhe near the army station, passing through the army training ground. In recent years, the river has become a place for some local private enterprises to discharge pollutants. It stinks all the year round, causing untold suffering to the residents and affecting the work, training and life of officers and soldiers. After learning about this situation, Xu Honggang made use of holidays to conduct research, visited the local government, enterprises and residents, listened to opinions and suggestions from all sides, consulted five experts and scholars on river regulation, and formed a scientific and rigorous research report. At the Sanmenxia people's Congress held in the spring of 2007, Xu Honggang submitted "suggestions on comprehensive management of Jianhe river". Lian Ziheng, then Secretary of the municipal Party committee, attached great importance to the proposal, and gave instructions: the proposal should be put on the work schedule as soon as possible, form a feasible construction scheme, and strive to complete the project within one year. after the construction started in May that year, Xu Honggang went to various places to coordinate the close cooperation between the military and the local. At the end of that year, a fresh river appeared in front of people. Today, the river is clear, willows, boats, people in the water, become a major landscape. When Xu Honggang saw that his proposal had become a result of benefiting the people, his heart was as sweet as honey. According to the reporter's interview, Xu Honggang has actively performed his duties as a deputy to the people's Congress at the grassroots level in recent years, and has successively put forward a number of feasible suggestions on the local leadership of the military day, strengthening the national defense education of young people, and strengthening the joint construction of military and civilian support
