1950165438+1in late October, during the battle of Changjin Lake in the Korean battlefield, the US troops fled south and were stunned by such a scene: rows of volunteer soldiers were lying on the position of MINUS 40 degrees Celsius, holding steel guns and grenades, maintaining a neat battle formation and posture, as if they were "ice" that rose from the ground.
The altitude of Changjin Lake area is between 1000 and 2000m. It was the worst winter in 50 years, and the lowest temperature reached MINUS 40 degrees Celsius at night. When the officers and men marched behind the US military, the cold was more terrible than the enemy's bullets and shells. Some soldiers' feet are swollen with cold, and they can no longer put on their shoes, so they simply run barefoot in the snow; Some soldiers are cold and hungry, so they can only grab the snow and swallow it.
The "Ice Sculpture Company" did not give in to the cold, and ambushed in the only way for the US troops to retreat on time. But after the battle order was issued, no one stood up and charged, and all of them froze to death in the empty bunker.
The officers and men of "Ice Sculpture Company" are like "Qiu" in the fire. In order to win the battle, they would rather die than leave the battlefield. It can be seen from the majestic and neat fighting posture that the officers and men of the "Ice Sculpture Company" have iron-like bodies and iron-like will. They will not waver in their determination to fight against any difficulties and hardships, and they will take the lead in their lifetime.
The spirit of "Ice Sculpture Company" was not practiced overnight, but experienced in the long years of fighting. "Ice Sculpture Company" participated in the Agrarian Revolutionary War, War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the Liberation War. This kind of "ice hero" was tempered by the smoke of war.
