For more than 60 years of hiding merit and name, the old class of the Watergate Bridge was found for the third time!

This year marks the 95th anniversary of the founding of the Chinese People's Liberation Army. On the eve of the establishment of the Army of the August 1st, a reporter from the "Southern" magazine visited a Cantonese Chinese people's volunteer army veterans and listened to the unknown battlefield stories during the anti -US aid North Korea.

His name is Shen Jinshui. At the age of 92, the Chinese People's Volunteer Army.

More than 70 years ago, Shen Jinshui served as the squad leader in 7 consecutive classes in the 3rd Battalion of the 27th Army's 80th Division. This troops where Shen Jinshui is located is one of the prototypes of the "Steel Seven Company" in the movie "The Water Gate Bridge of Changjin Lake" at the beginning of the year. In the battle of Changjin Lake, Shen Jinshui joined the daring team to complete the feat of blowing the water gate bridge in the extremely cold environment of more than 40 degrees Celsius.

However, Shen Jinshui rarely told others in this thrilling experience. The family only knows that he has participated in the War of Resistance to the United States and aid.

Asked about the war, he always said, "I am just a soldier who survives."

Until early May this year, Shen Jinshui, a grandson Li Libin, who works in Shenzhen, accidentally saw a report that interviewed the veteran Jiang Qingyun in the 2020 "Shijiazhuang Daily". Tell Li Libin. After reading the report, Li Libin immediately told the family and contacted and confirmed to the relevant local departments. At this point, Shen Jinshui's deeds were known.

In the summer, a reporter from "Southern" came to Silun Town, Yunfeuling City, and met this legendary old soldier to talk to him about the fighting story of fighting against the United States and aid.

More than 40 degrees below, fighting with the enemy

In 1949, Shen Jinshui joined the army and participated in the battle of crossing the river and liberating Shanghai. During the war of liberation, Shen Jinshui made three -class merit due to the bravery of combat.

After the outbreak of the Korean civil war, the "UN Army" led by the United States once burned the war to the border between China and North Korea. In October 1950, Shen Jinshui went to the Northeast Antong area with the 27th Army's train to the Northeast. From the Yalu River, he set foot on the Korean battlefield.

"We dare not act during the day, they have a lot of aircraft cannons. Sometimes they have to walk on the mountain road for two or three days, and it is seventy or eighty kilometers." At that time, the battle was urgent. Through strategic interspersed, the marching hundreds of kilometers reached the predetermined operational area.

On November 27, the battle of Changjin Lake started, and the 9th Corps of the Chinese People's Volunteer Army, where Shen Jinshui was located, directly competed with the 10th Army of the U.S. Army Emperor Army.

Located in the northeast of North Korea, the mountains are high in the mountains, with an average altitude of more than 1300 meters. It is a severe winter. In addition, the temperature drops to minus thirty or forty degrees Celsius.

"When we entered North Korea, we were not prepared, and it was very anxious. There were no cotton pants." Shen Jinshui introduced that the campaign of Xinxingli played the most fiercely. If you can't get out of the cold, you fight against the US military with grenades and bayonets.

One night, under the cover of the night, Shen Jinshui led several soldiers to interspersed in depth and attacked the US camp. "We don't know what the enemy's position is. At first, I touched it in and found that they were sleeping in the snow. The quilt was a white feathers, and I could sleep in a zipper. The gun will alarm other people. You can only stab on the bayonet, and finally annihilate an enemy team. "

In the emerging battle that lasted five days and four nights, the Ninth Corps of Shen Jinshui insisted on the position and stubbornly fighting under the difficult conditions. Volunteer Army is equipped with disadvantaged equipment to all the model warfare of the US military's one -reinforcement regiment.

Join the dare team, bomb the Watergate Bridge for the third time

Shuimen Bridge, located between the ancient soil and Shinxingli on the southern end of the Gatma Plateau on the Korean Peninsula, and about 6 kilometers south of the ancient earth. The only lane bridge to the area outside of Changjin Lake.

After the battle of Changjin Lake, the 10th Army of the U.S. forces was intercepted for a few sections and began to shrink back and tried to escape south. The Shuimen Bridge is the only way to withdraw from Changjin Lake to Xingnangang behind it, becoming the focus of the competition between the two sides.

Earlier, the Volunteer Army bombed the Water Gate Bridge twice, but the U.S. workers with modern equipment quickly repaired the bridge of the steel and wood structure and sent heavy soldiers to guard.

Although 70 years have passed, Shen Jinshui still clearly remembers the situation at the time: after the seven -connected order to the third bombing of the bridge, the company chief Jiang Qingyun organized a 40 -person death team to lead a reinforcement and a heavy machine gun class. They were wearing cotton clothes and backbone bags. The white lining of cotton clothes was integrated with ice and snow. Through the cover of the night, they were involved in the Watergate Bridge in batches. However, under the probe lights and lighting, the dare to death was discovered by the US military. In the rain of guns, Jiang Qingyun was knocked down by the bullet and was unconscious.

A group of dare to death fell down, and the fewer people played.

"I brought two infantry and gunmen to the frying door bridge. The lights were shining on the bridge head. The gunman was to explore the lights. They attacked the fierce fire of the enemy and eventually rushed to the bridgehead. There was a loud noise of "bombardment" and successfully destroyed the bridge that the US military was repaired with the second time with the base.

Speaking of the battle of Shuimen Bridge, Shen Lao was slightly excited. He moved his eyes to the distance and paused for a long time.

At that time, they used the flesh and blood to perform a bridge mission. Most people died of the battlefield, maximizing the pace of the US military retreat. But soon after, the U.S. military rushed to make 8 sets of 1 ton of rutual bridge components in Japan, and used large transport aircraft to reach the Water Gate Bridge. The third time the bridge was repaired.

The general "tiger", a row of people

In Shen Jinshui's memory, the most memorable is the first stage of the fifth battle.

In early April 1951, the "United Nations Army" crossed the "38th Line" again. It plans to land from the side of the People's Army from the Sino -DPRK, cooperate with a positive attack, and promote the front to the front line of Pyongyang and Yuanshan. In order to shatter the enemy's attempt, the Chinese and DPRKs launched the fifth battle.

"I am a assault gunman. I don't afraid of death. The people of the troops call me 'Tiger Tsai. I want to eat him in a bite when I see the enemy." In a mountain blocking war, the US military's troops were charged on the mountain. In order to keep our position, Shen Jinshui took a detour to the enemy's side, and used a bullet submachine gun to kill more than a dozen people in one breath and retreated the enemy's attack.

"In the war years, we did not care about life and death, and one day in a day. The defense battle, the offensive battle, and the tunnel war have also been played. In the battlefield, we directly inserted into the enemy, fight from the inside, hit the enemy to the enemy to the enemy to the enemy, hit the enemy to the enemy to the enemy to the enemy to hit the enemy to the enemy to the enemy to the enemy to hit the enemy to the enemy to the enemy to the enemy to hit the enemy to the enemy to the enemy to the enemy to hit the enemy to the enemy to the enemy to the enemy to hit the enemy to the enemy to the enemy to hit the enemy to the enemy to the enemy to hit the enemy to the enemy to the enemy to hit the enemy to the enemy to the enemy to hit the enemy to the enemy to the enemy to hit the enemy to the enemy to the enemy to hit the enemy to the enemy to the enemy to hit the enemy to the enemy to the enemy to hit the enemy to the enemy to the enemy to hit the enemy to the enemy to the enemy. It's messy, the enemy doesn't know how we come, they also convinced us. So the U.S. military wants to negotiate because of this, and they are all scared when they hit them. "

As a machine gunman with a charge, Shen Jinshui participated in hundreds of battles in large and small, but he was rarely injured and there were no bomb holes on his body. In his opinion, this was because he was flexible when he was young, running fast, and good at playing sports war.

However, this hero who has been in a hundred battles is also closer to death.

"On the Korean battlefield, the tactics of the U.S. military are mainly aircraft bombing and bombardment. The above point is that it may be thrown off a shell, and life and death are often only a moment. On one occasion, I dug a personal size of a personal size in the mountains, and the enemy. The machine suddenly attacked, the shell exploded next to me, and the ears were shocked. "After this battle, Shen Jinshui fell into a hearing loss.

Shen Jinshui said: "I am not suffering from this injury. The soldiers of our class died and injured. The sacrifice comrades -in -arms can never see it again."

To this day, Shen Jinshui is reluctant to mention those sacrificed comrades. He believes that compared with them, it is lucky to live more than 70 years.

Discover the wreckage of the plane, catch the U.S. pilot alive

In the data album of Shen Jinshui, a photo on the battlefield was particularly noticeable. This photo was taken in 1952. It was a photo of Shen Jinshui and his comrades discovered the wreckage of the U.S. helicopter, but Shen Jinshui had never seen this precious photo before.

Until recently, when Daughter Shen sorted out historical data for her father, she accidentally found this historical photo in the media and handed it over to Shen Lao.

"This person in the lower left corner is me." At first glance when Shen Jinshui saw the photo, he recognized the person holding the assault rifle, which was herself when he was young.

On the evening of January 1952, a artillery force of the 27th Army shot down a U.S. fighter aircraft in the battle. Then the U.S. helicopter came to search and rescue pilots. In the process of looking for the wreckage of the plane and searching for the U.S. pilot, the helicopter was another high machine. Combo.

"The weather is very cold. Jiang Qingyun led us in three rows of soldiers to search for mountains more than 10 kilometers away overnight." Shen Jinshui recalled that at that time, the task of searching for helicopter and the US pilot was handed over to Qilian.

"I was the first to discover the wreckage of the helicopter. At that time, the propeller of the plane was still rotating, but I didn't see the pilot. After finding that he was hiding in the pine tree, I caught him back and gave it to the superior." Shen Jinshui said.

At that time, the captive who was anxious to wait for the rescue of the U.S. for more than one meter was more than 1.9 meters. It was extremely afraid when being captured, but did not resist. "It took more than an hour to catch him at night. He searched him, with a pistol, photos, US dollars, and compass. We will return all the private things such as US dollars and photos in accordance with regulations. Not so nervous. "

"Later, the helicopter's engine was removed, wrapped in a quilt, dragged back from the mountain, and transported back to China." Speaking of these battlefields, Shen Lao still remembered clearly.

Jiejia returned to the field. In October 1952, Shen Jinshui returned to China and continued to work in the army. In 1955, Shen Jinshui returned to Silun Town from the troops, and has been a transporter, a geological player and a cook, a warehouse administrator of the grain management office.

Shen Jinshui's daughter Shen Simei said that their brothers and sisters have 7 people. When they were young, the economy at home was very difficult, and often she was not enough to eat cassava porridge. Nevertheless, his father never made help and request to the unit. He is enthusiastic and willing to dedicate, and also uses the medical knowledge he has learned in the army to serve the masses. He has been rated as an excellent Communist Party member by the local party committee many times.

For decades, Shen Jinshui has always maintained the habit of wearing military uniforms. Time, the "post -90s" veteran is still tough and spiritual. He has always maintained the style of soldiers who do not fade in the most grass -roots countryside.

Shen Jinshui, the veteran of the United States and the North Korea, respects the army.

Shen Jinshui lived frugal, and still retains an old cotton jacket more than 70 years ago, which is the baby object he used to resist the cold on the Korean battlefield. If you can't find it, you will blame your children to lose it. Every winter, he does not want new clothes that children buy, and love to wear this old cotton clothes with multiple holes and washed countless times.

He said, "This dress is warm enough."

Shen Jinshui wore old cotton clothes for more than 70 years.

Shen Jinshui's home is simple and uses old furniture, but he has carefully collected some precious souvenirs: revolutionary soldiers, proofs of merit, commemorative medal against the United States and aid North Korea ... Time.

All kinds of medals obtained by Shen Jinshui.

The elderly like to watch the film and television dramas that fight against the United States and aid North Korea. This year, the children took him to watch the movie "Water Gate Bridge of Changjin Lake" and re -stimulated Shen Lao's memories of the years of flames.

In 1951, Shen Jinshui joined the Communist Party of China on the battlefield. In Shen Jinshui's volunteer book, the yellowed inner page records the reason for the application of the party's application for the party: For personal honor, the people of the world can be liberated and live a free and happy life.

Shen Jinshui's volunteer letter to join the party.

At the end of the interview, Shen Jinshui told reporters that his biggest wish now is to go back to Qilian and see the changes in the troops.

"I want to tell the young soldiers to young soldiers. I hope they study hard, practice skills, and contribute to the motherland and the people," Shen Lao said affectionately.
