"Island Guarding Force" on September 28

In the vast sea, there is an island far away from the mainland. There is a border defense force left there. The island is small and full of people. The mountains are all stones. In order to show their determination to defend the island, the soldiers wrote slogans on the stones. Because the stones were small, it took several stones to write a slogan, and the words were not coherent, making it very difficult to read. Since the company commander and the instructor were at odds, the company commander was afraid that his words would not be listened to, so he set up steps with stones and peeed from the top to see if his urine could flow from the top step to the bottom step. If you can, it means that your words are effective, but the test results are still one short of being able to reach the bottom. The company commander was in a bad mood, so he got angry at his wife, and he couldn't even have sex. He even kicked her out of the house on a rainy day. The wife was so heartbroken that she wanted to jump into the sea, but the soldiers pulled her back. The daughter-in-law didn't want to have sex with the company commander, and wanted Hongxing to cheat on her, so that the company commander wouldn't want her. So, she met a Kuomintang soldier while walking along the mountain road. In order to attract the attention of the Kuomintang soldier, she used a stick of grass to Cut his finger. The sun shines on the sea, reflecting dazzling light, the seawater wrapped in yellow sand rolls and roars, and the sea breeze blows over with a salty smell. This is the scenery that has remained unchanged for many years on Kaishan Island. Many people say that guarding the island here is like "sitting in a water prison."

Life on the island is more difficult than Wang Shihua imagined. Hearing that the cost of transporting water from outside the island was very high, Wang Jicai proposed to the organization, "We don't need to deliver water. We can solve the problem of drinking water ourselves." From then on, the couple could only drink rainwater from the rainwater cellar. "He put loaches in and drank the water." There are no insects in the water, and the water is purified before drinking."

There is no electricity on the island, so we can only light kerosene lamps; every onion and vegetable we eat has to be brought up from outside the island by passing fishing boats.

In summer, the island is hot and humid, and there are so many mosquitoes that the couple has to sleep on the roof; in winter, it is so cold and cold that they have to move into a cave where the sea breeze cannot penetrate for the night. Not long after, they all suffered from rheumatoid arthritis and severe eczema. White spots the size of coins were all over their bodies. The pain was unbearable and they often woke up in the middle of the night. They could only beat each other and spend sleepless nights. night.

When a typhoon comes, ships cannot go out to sea, and Kaishan Island truly becomes an isolated island. “There were only two of us on the vast ocean, and we encountered periods of food and water shortages several times a year.” Wang Shihua recalled that once, strong winds blew for 17 consecutive days, and all the firewood was used up, making it impossible to cook. “We were so hungry that we were dizzy. My legs were so weak that I could only soak the uncooked rice in water and chew it dry. It felt like chewing sand. The taste was really unbearable after I chewed the uncooked rice for five days.

Although life is hard, Wang Jicai and his wife still have unshakable tasks every day: raising flags, patrolling the island, observing the sky, escorting navigation marks, and writing diaries... Nowadays, the stack of island guarding diaries is as high as one person. Every day is well documented.

The island has strong winds, high humidity and strong sunlight, so the national flags are easy to fade and get damaged. Over the years, Wang Jicai and his wife bought more than 300 national flags with their own money. On New Year's Day in 2012, after hearing their story, the Tiananmen Flag Guard sent them an all-steel mobile flag-raising platform and stainless steel flagpole from Beijing, as well as a national flag that had flown in Tiananmen Square.

Wang Jicai regarded this flag as a treasure. Wang Shihua remembered that once there was a sudden strong wind on the sea, Wang Jicai was afraid that the flag would be scratched, so he took it down and held it in his arms despite the wind and rain, but he slipped and fell down the stone steps. "That time I broke several ribs. ”

Danger and temptation have appeared in front of Wang Jicai. A "snakehead" secretly went to the island to find Wang Jicai. He took out 100,000 yuan in cash and asked him to stay on the island for a few days as a few "guests." Wang Jicai refused flatly, "I am a militiaman. As long as I am on this island, you will never dirty it!" The other party became angry and threatened the safety of his children, and even used violence against him. However, because of Wang Jicai's persistence, he refused. Failed to succeed. Finally, with the help of Wang Jicai, the criminals were captured by the police.

The most worrying time for Wang Shihua was when she and Lao Wang were patrolling along the coast. Suddenly a big wave hit and Lao Wang was swept into the sea. "I think it's over now, Lao Wang's life is over." No more!" Wang Shihua ran desperately to the beach and found another wave coming, knocking the soaked Lao Wang onto another rock. "I ran over quickly and pulled him up.

”

From then on, when the couple went out on patrol, they had an extra backpack rope tied around their waists. In case of an accident, they could take care of each other. Over the years, this common rope An ordinary backpack rope tied the lives of the couple together, and also tied their fate to Kaishan Island.

I appreciate those who make selfless sacrifices
