On September 2013, 9, the expeditionary army sculpture group was completed at the former site of the Songshan Battle.

The entire sculpture group is located on the south side of the main battlefield, the main peak of Songshan Mountain. It covers an area of ​​about 17500 square meters and consists of 402 individual sculptures.

Shaped according to the ratio of human scale 1:1.2.

There are 12 kinds of phalanxes: generals, soldiers in summer clothes, soldiers in autumn clothes, soldiers in winter clothes, soldiers stationed in India, baby soldiers, female soldiers, kneeling soldiers, artillery soldiers, living veterans, horses, and jeeps.

In the phalanx of baby soldiers, these immature children stand here, giving people more of a feeling of hatred and shock.

Every inch of mountains and rivers is full of blood, and every inch of mountains and rivers has heroes.

These children who could have no worries about food and clothing, and went to school under the care of their parents, never came back because of the war that year.

And there is also a martyr's cemetery in province y, which many people may not know.

This martyrs cemetery is called Malipo Martyrs Cemetery.

There is a poem on the right side of the entrance of Malipo Martyrs Cemetery.

Three thousand strong men become male ghosts, and one hundred thousand flags come back triumphantly.

At the place where the white hair is clear and the heart is broken, the green is full of spring mountains and crickets.

Every tombstone in the cemetery is inlaid with portraits of heroes during their lifetime and engraved with the lives of martyrs.

These ancestors all died in the modern counterattack against Vietnam.

Many people may think that war is a long time away from us, but it is not.

This battle lasted 10 years, from 84 to 93.

In 79, after the Hua State completed its self-defense counterattack against Vietnam, the Yue State, unwilling to fail, still harassed and invaded our territory many times.

According to a report by Xinhua News Agency in 84, in the past five years, the Vietnamese army has continuously fired at farms, villages, and schools in Huaguo.

More than 4 rounds of various bullets were fired, killing and wounding 235 soldiers and civilians on our border.

Forced the frontier people to leave their homes and live in caves.

On April 84, 4, after 28 days of artillery preparation, our side suddenly launched an attack.

In one fell swoop, Laoshan, Zheyin Mountain and other highlands were recovered.

After several days of fierce fighting, the Huaguo army not only held the recovered positions, but also conquered the Bali River East Mountain to the east of Laoshan.

During the 84 World War in 7.12, even the trucks used to transport pigs were changed to transport shells, and the common people also helped, regardless of the cost.

In the past 10 years, soldiers from many military regions across the country once again took to the battlefield to participate in this defense battle.

Until 1993, the support and support units withdrew, and at 4:1 on April 15 of the same year, the [-]th Border Defense Regiment switched to normal defense.

It was the end of a 10-year war.

And is this battle over?The answer is no.

Because of this battle, millions of mine bombs were buried on the border, threatening the lives of local people at all times.

The locals call this place the Death Zone.

There are millions of landmines, grenades, and various explosives left over here.

Many children lost their fathers when they were young.

There are also children whose legs and feet were blown off at a young age.

In this place, even if there was a thunderstorm, the villagers would tremble with fear: Could it be that someone stepped on the thunder again?

From 79 to 03, as many as 5878 people were disabled by lightning, and the age of the victims ranged from 8 to 84 years old.

Few people know that there is such a mine-sweeping team that carries out mine-sweeping missions year after year on the border of province y.

From 92 to 94, they stepped through 15 "death zones".

The international mine-sweeping team of a certain country only cleared more than 6 mine bombs in three years.

However, this little-known Huaguo demining team cleared more than 4000 million square meters of minefields within two years.

12 landmines, 11 grenades, and more than 1 artillery shells were removed.

To this day, the demining mission is still going on.

Every mine-sweeping fighter has already written a suicide note.

In the morning, put the suicide note in a conspicuous place before going out to perform tasks.

In the evening, add new content to the suicide note, and then go to bed.

Due to the complex terrain, steep terrain, deep grass and lush forests, there are a large number and types of mine bombs, and machinery cannot guarantee 100% clearance.

Therefore, it has always been possible to use manual demining.

Whenever the demining brigade finishes cleaning and hand over the minefield to the local government, there will be a shocking ceremony.

The soldiers walked hand in hand across the minefield.

They used their bodies to prove to the local government and villagers that this area is safe.

After the war, the mainland has restored the pre-war peace.

A thriving scene across the country.

But province y is still fighting for the frontier defense of the motherland. Up to now, more than dozens of police officers and border guards who have died in province y have died.

Province y is the province with the largest number of victims of ban d in the entire country of China.

After 2000, drug traffickers became increasingly rampant in some border areas.

The border guards have successively seized a total of 451 tons of d-products.

The director of a frontier police station in Kang County, Lincang Town, in order to cover his teammates during an operation, alone pressed the grenade thrown by the drug dealer tightly under his body.

No matter whether they are alive or dead, the front-line ban d staff of the border defense in province y, their relevant information is top secret.

No personal or family information is allowed to be published.

Those assassinations and rewards that everyone has only seen in film and television dramas are not far away to these front-line staff.

Many people asked why those martyrs had no names or photos on their tombstones after their sacrifices.

This is because they want to protect their families from retaliation by drug traffickers.

What is shown in film and television works is just the tip of the iceberg.

As you can see, there are only two cases of front-line workers who released photos and information.

Either the family is completely safe, or...their family has no one left to take revenge on.

Now, Huaguo is stronger and stronger, and can better protect the safety of those front-line workers and their families.

Among them, the border defense of province y is indispensable.

Those traffickers, it is not so easy to enter the country, whether it is people or their so-called goods.

That's why, the whole country has a zero-tolerance attitude towards those artists involved in D, who want to come back later.

Because every penny they spend on drugs may become a bullet for front-line workers in the future.

During the period of masks, the border guards in province y made even greater contributions.

Countless people have signed up for volunteer teams to guard the border with border guards and staff.

At that time, there were no barbed wire fences or cameras on the border.

Volunteers work two-on-one, equipped with flashlights for lighting only.

The sweltering heat of summer nights and the mosquitoes accompany them throughout the summer.

Sometimes, with bad luck, the downpours brought on by the subtropical monsoon climate drenched them drenched.

But they never dared to relax and find a place to shelter from the rain.

Because of their laxity, more smugglers may bring the virus into the mainland.

At that time, on the border, Myanmar's local and government forces were fighting.

There were even cases where the windows of local residents were broken by stray bullets, and shells flew into elementary schools.

During the three-year mask period, in this war without gunpowder smoke, they paid unimaginable hardships for ordinary people.

Our border guards are our country's first line of defense.

I don't ask everyone to call them noble, but at least don't deny and smear them, so as to chill the hearts of the front-line staff.

Those who have never lived on the border will never understand how hard-earned the peace everyone enjoys now.

How many soldiers and people bought the Great Wall built with flesh and blood for us to live and work in peace and contentment now!
