After the successful conclusion of the exercise of the Sword Campaign in the North, all the units participating in the exercise were safely brought back, and they had just taken off their battle uniforms full of gunpowder smoke, and the fatigue of the 10,000-mile journey had not been completely eliminated, and the officers and men of the 3235 Regiment began to work again. On this day, 60 years ago, the earliest predecessor of the 3235 Regiment, the Red Army guerrillas in Kunyu Mountain, Jiaodong, under the leadership of the Jiaodong Special Committee of the Communist Party of China, held an armed uprising against the reactionary rule of the Kuomintang, that is, the famous "114" riot in Jiaodong. Although the uprising failed under the brutal suppression of the Kuomintang reactionaries, the main leaders were arrested and killed, and the party organizations were seriously damaged, the "114" riots gave a tremendous shock to the Kuomintang reactionaries, expanded the influence of the party, and sowed the seeds of revolutionary armed struggle. Since then, this unit has persisted in the eight-year War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the four-year War of Liberation, participated in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and fought in the war of self-defense and counterattack against Vietnam. The fourth day of the eleventh month of the lunar calendar has become the birth day of the 3235 regiment. This year happens to be the 60th anniversary of the founding of the 3235 regiment, just like the 60th birthday celebration of the old man, the 3235 regiment has also entered the year of the sixtieth year, and it should be celebrated.

In the Second Artillery Company, Sun Jiashu is leading the whole class of soldiers to wash their faces on the road, the company's roads are paved with red bricks, day by day, indicating that it is covered with a thick layer of soil, black and ugly, Sun Jiashu Their job is to remove the soil, you know, because of the time, these black soil has penetrated deeply into the red bricks, it is not easy to clean up. Each of them took a war shovel and scraped the road vigorously until the red bricks were revealed, and the sound of scraping bricks sounded anxious, but Sun Jiashu and they were in full swing, and that sound seemed to be a beautiful piece of music to them. I remember that last year, he wrote an article called "Situationism in the Vegetable Field", and today he is also engaged in the situation, but he will not write such an article again, because this kind of situation must be carried out, and after 60 years, it is time to give the troops a facelift, and let those old comrades and old leaders who have returned to the army see the earth-shaking changes in the troops.

After several days of sorting out by the officers and soldiers of the 3235 Regiment, the barracks of the troops were thoroughly washed, the red bricks and red tiles, and the Rongdao paved with red bricks were scraped by the soldiers to reveal a pink background, the trees were dressed in neat white coats, the vegetable fields were uniformly turned over, and the straight ridges were marked, and the long-lost fountain in front of the headquarters began to spray out water columns more than ten meters high, and the banners dozens of meters long were pulled up, and the big characters of "Warmly Celebrating the 60th Anniversary of the Birth of the First Regiment of Jinan" were particularly eye-catching.

Military vehicles carrying flowers drove into the barracks, and the entire camp soon turned into a sea of flowers. On the playground in front of the regimental auditorium, the soldiers carefully spelled out the words "Warmly celebrate the 60th anniversary of the birth of the first regiment in Jinan" with flowers. A high platform has been erected in front of the auditorium, rows of benches and tables have been moved up, covered with brand new red velvet, and the entire high platform is covered with a red carpet, this is the military parade viewing platform built by the soldiers themselves, on the day of the 60th anniversary celebration, the old-timers of the 3235 regiment will be invited to sit on the viewing platform to review the troops.

The cannon was pushed to the edge of the playground by the soldiers, the soldiers took off the gun jackets, polished the gun body brightly, the muzzle of the gun was all in one direction, and the military vehicles also drove into the playground with a "bang", leaning on the side of the playground and lined up neatly, like soldiers in a queue, not only the body was wiped spotlessly, but even the tires of the car were painted black by the soldiers, and a round edge was carefully drawn on the steel ring with white paint. Although it is said that all this is engaged in formalism, but the officers and men are willing to do it, the old leaders do not know how many years before they have the opportunity to come back, they are some old heroes, old generals, and leaders who hold senior leadership positions at the central or local level, most of them are already 70 or 80 years old, I am afraid that there are not many opportunities to come back to the old troops, the officers and men of the 3235 Regiment should show their most beautiful and enthusiastic side to the old leaders, let them see that the 3235 Regiment is no longer what it used to be, with the efforts of the younger generations, the 3235 regiment has been built into a modern people's army, it still dares to fight tough battles, it still makes all enemies fearful, after decades, the battle flag of the 3235 regiment is still so fresh and so red!

At 8 o'clock in the morning on the fourth day of the eleventh month of the lunar calendar, the weather was unusually cold, but the 3235 regiment was a warm scene. The officers and soldiers of the 3235th Regiment were neatly lined up on both sides of the road leading to the gate, and banners were pulled up one after another, which read: Warmly celebrate the 60th anniversary of the founding of the 3235th Regiment; The old chief is welcome to go back to his parents' house to have a look...... In a few moments, the motorcade of invited guests will arrive.

At 8:30 a.m., the exciting moment came, Mitsubishi jeeps and Mercedes-Benz buses drove over slowly, all the windows were opened, the chiefs inside the cars smiled and waved to everyone, the officers and soldiers clapped rhythmically, and the drummers desperately pulled the drumsticks. The vehicle slowly passed through the gate, the guards "snapped" a gun salute, the convoy continued to drive, and finally stopped in a row in the open space in front of the headquarters, after the car door opened, the invited guests slowly walked down from the car, among them there were gray-haired veterans, there were also generals of the republic in velvet suits, there were old combat heroes, and there were also senior cadres who held important positions at the central and local levels. There are also some old comrades who used to work in the 3235 regiment and fought. When an elderly man got out of the car and saw the banner "Welcome to his mother's house", he couldn't help but burst into tears, he leaned down and gently touched the ground under his feet with his hand, and he didn't get up for a long time.

The officers and men applauded excitedly, and accompanied by the commanders of the army, division, and regiment, these veteran leaders crossed the wide boulevard, stepped on the red carpet on the viewing platform, and sat on the rostrum.

The military parade ceremony was presided over by regiment commander Wang Wenxuan, who today put on a new type of winter dress and stood on the rostrum in high spirits. ”

With the first salute sounded, the six regimental flag guards set off from the regimental history museum and walked to the auditorium venue, and 60 salutes were staggered, symbolizing the 60 years of glorious history of the 3235 regiment. Today's flag-raiser is Sun Jiashu, because of his outstanding performance in the Northern Sword Battle exercise, was designated as the regimental flag raiser by the regimental leadership, will hold the first regimental flag of Jinan to the rostrum, Zhang Ershun is the gun flag guard, when the regimental flag guard kicks the neat pace through the rostrum, the old leaders on the rostrum immediately stood up and saluted, and watched the regimental flag guard walk to the regimental flagpole base, after arriving at the regimental flag pedestal, the flag guards lined up and put down their guns, 60 salutes just finished firing, and then began to raise the flag, I saw Sun Jiashu excitedly unfold the regimental flag, carefully fixed on the rope, with the National Anthem of the People's Republic of China played, Sun Jiashu began to slowly pull the rope, he has practiced hundreds of times, from the beginning of the flag to the regimental flag to the highest point of the time is 47 seconds, he did not miss a second, only to see the bright red regimental flag began to flutter in the wind.

"Salute the regimental flag of the first regiment of Jinan-" Wang Wenxuan shouted loudly.

"Huh-" Everyone present gave a military salute to the regimental flag.

"After the ceremony, let's move on to the next ceremony, and the chief will review the troops." Wang Wenxuan announced.

Today, Lieutenant General Liu Haiming, commander of the R Group Army, inspected the troops on behalf of Lieutenant General Liu Haiming, although many of the leaders who came to participate in the regimental celebration were above him, but they were all retired, and Lieutenant General Liu Haiming was the highest-ranking active officer in the regimental celebration ceremony, so he was the representative of the delegation.

"Hello comrades—" Lieutenant General Liu Haiming walked to the center of the queue and greeted him loudly.

"Hello chief—" The officers and men of the 3235th Regiment roared, shaking the birds in the surrounding trees into flight.

"Comrades have worked hard."

"Serve the people." The officers and men had loud voices one by one, like little tigers.

After the review, the leaders returned to the rostrum, and regiment commander Wang Wenxuan announced that the army commander had read out a congratulatory letter written by the defense minister and displayed a congratulatory message written by the defense minister. Then the representatives of the old leaders and the old heroes spoke, and the enthusiastic speeches of these veterans aroused warm applause from time to time. In the solemn march of the People's Liberation Army, the officers and men of each company carried weapons and equipment, kicked and marched, and passed through the viewing platform with high spirits. These veterans stood up excitedly, solemnly saluted the officers and soldiers under the stage, and then the military physical boxing performance, the officers and soldiers who participated in the military physical boxing were full of energy like little tigers, and they were vigorous in boxing. Finally, the 3235 regiment's fist performance subject -- assassination drill performance, this squad once went to Beijing to perform for the president, Sun Jiashu is still a member of the squadron, today specially performed for the veterans of the 3235 regiment, only heard two slogans: "one, two." The magnificent assassination drill team ran into the field, the steps were neat, the momentum was like a rainbow, like a steel dragon, the military spur was shining in the sunlight, the team quickly unfolded the formation after standing in the center of the playground, a sudden "kill-", the roar shook the sky, the momentum was magnificent, from the assassination drill one practice to the three exercises, these veterans who left the 3235 regiment for many years were enthusiastic, as if they had returned to their youth, and they couldn't wait to carry the steel gun to the phalanx to compare.
