Wang Liang suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help adding: "Starting from the National Day parade in 1954, the defense minister carried out the review of the military parade. At the military parade that year, Mr. Peng was in charge of reviewing the troops. Mr. Peng, who dared to take a sword in the million-dollar army, the founding father reached the pinnacle of his military career in the Korean War. Until the National Day parade in 1958, Mr. Peng carried out the review of the military parade in the capacity of Minister of National Defense. ”
Some history, as we all know, knows it well, and there is no need for Wang Liang to repeat it.
"In 1957, the regret left by the torrential rain in 1956 was finally remedied, and in that year's National Day military parade, domestic jet bombers and fighters were inspected for the first time through the sky over Tiananmen Square.
The past came to Wang Liang's mind, and that picture, as if it was just yesterday, was so cordial and familiar.
Celebrating the eighth anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, a grand military parade and a large parade of 500,000 people.
On that day, under the bright sunshine, Tiananmen Square was colorful.
In the middle of the Tiananmen Gate Tower hangs a huge portrait of the chairman, the portrait of the former prime minister is erected in the south of the square, and the portraits of Marx, Engels, Lenin, and Stalin are erected in front of the red walls on the east and west sides of it.
The 10,000 workers in front of the square used saffron as the base and yellow flowers to form the two big characters of "National Day".
The taste of the age is strong.
On the east side of the square are lined up with troops of the Chinese People's Liberation Army preparing for review, and on the east side and nearby streets are a mass procession of 500,000 people participating in the festival parade.
At 9:50 a.m., the leaders ascended the Tiananmen Tower, and at this time, the crowd waved thousands of bouquets of flowers to cheer and salute the party and state leaders.
"The National Day parade in 1957 also had a considerable feature, that is, there were many foreign guests. More than 3,000 foreign guests gathered at the Tiananmen Tower and the viewing platform. Soviet Union, Hungary, Bulgaria, Indonesia, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, Burma...... Many of them are experts who are here to help the construction of New China, thank them very much! Wang Liang said.
Some people may say that when Sino-Soviet relations deteriorated, Soviet experts were withdrawn, thanks to their laush.
Wang Liang smiled, and he didn't blame the person who said this.
Because he didn't go through that history.
The history that ordinary people come into contact with is nothing more than those few lines of text in textbooks, plus the subjective indoctrination of teachers.
But history is not made up of a few lines of words, her composition is every minute and every second, all kinds of people, wonderful stories.
This is also the greatest charm of history.
Wang Liang continued: "In 1958, a large number of militia teams composed of workers, peasants, and students appeared in the procession. The basic militia squadron is composed of militia combat heroes from revolutionary base areas such as Taihang Mountain and Baiyangdian, who had used earthen guns and artillery to fight the enemy in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the War of Liberation, and they participated in the National Day military parade after only 20 days of training. ”
"The most striking thing is the cadets of the military academy and the infantry, artillery, tank, engineering, air force, navy and other military schools created by the People's Liberation Army after the founding of the People's Liberation Army, and they are at the forefront."
In 1958, the 9th National Day Parade.
In that year, the smell of war was very strong.
Because in one month of that year, Dou Yile, commander of the United States Aid Taiwan Province, released cruel words: "If necessary, we will attack Chinese mainland with missiles." ”
Cracks also began to appear in Sino-Soviet relations.
In March, China's first missile test base was created in Long Province.
Wang Liang still remembers the instructions of that year: "It is necessary to arm citizens of both sexes who can carry weapons throughout the country, and implement the practice of all soldiers in the form of militia organizations." ”
"The imperialists are bullying us so much, and this needs to be dealt with seriously. Not only do we have a strong regular army, but we also have to run militia divisions on a large scale. In this way, when the imperialists invade our country, it will be difficult to move an inch. ”
The special historical background and special national conditions have not changed the sincere heart.
The years have made me grow old day by day.
My youth, my beauty, my age.
Maybe Wang Liang is really old, and the old man likes to miss and reminisce about the past.
In the fast-paced modern context, people are busy making a living, busy, unspeakably busy.
Few people can really swoop down to study the past, starting from a small thing, from a minute and a second in the past.
It will take a lot of time and effort, but it will also harvest valuable spiritual wealth.
People should not live in the past, but they should understand the past.
Yes, why are fewer and fewer young people willing to commit to this career?
Pay is not proportional to income, you want to eat, you want a daughter-in-law, you want social status......
Wang Liang sighed and was sad.
I want to go back in time and live in the past forever.
Netizens felt the sadness of the old chief, could understand it, and gave encouragement and support.
Wang Liang nodded with a smile and continued: "The National Day military parade in 1959 was a milestone. The vast majority of the light and heavy weapons and equipment reviewed have been localized, and a number of domestic weapons and equipment have appeared on the stage. The armored corps is equipped with a Chinese-made Type 59 medium tank, which is the first generation of main battle tanks made in China. The fighters flying over the square were echelons of Chinese-made J-5 aircraft. That marked the tremendous achievements that China had made in building up its armed forces. ”
In the 1959 National Day military parade, the largest number of people from all walks of life participated in the ceremony, reaching 700,000.
1959 was a huge turning point.
Wang Liang remembers that it was the last time a military parade was carried out by the military's top military commander or defense minister.
During the war years, the scene of commanding thousands of troops and horses in Tiananmen Square wearing military uniforms and inspecting the troops came to an end.
Wang Liang remembered that it was the last time that the officers and soldiers shouted "long live" in unison.
In the previous military parade, the executors of the review would shout slogans such as "Long live the People's Republic of China", "Long live the Communist Party of China", and "Long live ***", while the troops under review would respond with three "Long live".
And this scene never happened again, and disappeared forever.
Looking back at the military parade in the 10 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the executors of the review style will eventually return to the tower of Tiananmen Square to speak.
The content of the speeches was mainly military orders, and touched on the future strategy of the revolutionary war, army building, and military-civilian relations.
The military color is strong, highlighting the leading role of the army in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China and the strong military cultural atmosphere.
In the introduction, the scenes of the year were all passed in front of Wang Liang's eyes, and after a long time, he said: "I haven't seen you for a long time, and I even miss it." ”
