"Compared with the mines of the German army, the Japanese mines are far worse and pose no threat to us at all. In the narrow valley and on the steep slope, the tanks moved forward at full speed along the passage we dug, The infantry followed closely behind. I just remember that we were chasing all the way, and the Japanese army was retreating all the way.”

Kojin tells the story of the Sixth Guards Tank Army advancing an average of 150 kilometers every day and night during the Far East Campaign, crossing the Greater Khingan Mountains and heading out to Northeast China.

"Later, we experienced a fierce battle, which was very fierce, and many brothers died."

Ke Jin recalled that when the fuel was exhausted, the armored troops had to gather in Lubei and Tuquan in Inner Mongolia for two days.

After receiving the information, the Japanese army dispatched 86 bombers and carried out a total of twelve concentrated bombings.

One hundred and five tanks, 27 artillery pieces and 42 vehicles of the Soviet army were destroyed in the bombing. Of course, countless soldiers died in the artillery fire.

Two days later, the Sixth Guards Tank Army received airlifted fuel supplies and resumed its offensive.

The vanguard of the left wing captured Taonan, Jilin, wiped out the first cavalry division of the Puppet Manchukuo, and captured more than [-] enemies.

Of course, the treatment of the prisoners who fell into the hands of the Soviet army is no better than you understand.

At this point, the door to the heart of the Japanese Kwantung Army was completely opened.

The war is over, before returning home.

Kodin met a Chinese girl who could speak Russian fluently.

The two hit it off right away and talked happily.

Kojin had taken a photo with the girl before leaving, but it was a pity that the photo was lost on his way back to China, which has become an eternal regret in his heart.

"Actually, I can't remember what she looks like. I just remember that she smiled very sweetly and beautifully."

Wang Liang: "Some people will never be old, but some people will never be young. The youth of veterans burns on the battlefield, and they will always be young."

Koggin seems to speak casually, but after more than 70 years, he can still remember it so clearly.

It could be seen that that memory was deeply imprinted in his mind.

The former Chinese girl may have been married, or may not have survived the war years.
But it's safe to say that Cockin will never see her again.
There will be unforgettable things or unforgettable people in everyone's heart.

After retirement, Koggin actively participated in the preparation and organization of the Pacific Fleet Veterans Committee.

He often visits primary and secondary schools, tells war stories, spreads the spirit of veterans, and often discusses with the veterans of the committee how to better play the social function of the veterans committee.

"My name is Klavdia Dmitrievna Terekova from Daugavpils, from Latvia."

The other narrator is an old lady who shows pictures of herself when she was young.

Although it is a black and white photo, it cannot conceal how beautiful she was when she was young.

Now, things are different.

At the age of 19, Terekhova finished medical school and received a doctor's certificate, and at this time, she was sent to the battlefield.

Terekhova saw firsthand the fighting in the Donbass and the North Caucasus, crossing the Dnieper River and liberating Romania.

In May [-], her field hospital was stationed in Bulgaria.

It was not until the end of [-] that she was able to return to her native Latvia.

She recalled: "There have been many critical moments and very tragic struggles. The most thrilling time for me was when our army crossed the Dnieper River. The enemy bombed and shot rafts and ships frantically. Those who succeeded Soldiers who crossed the river and held strategic points were awarded Heroes of the Soviet Union."

"After repelling the Germans, our hospital was stationed on the right bank, but the sound of enemy bombing on the river was still heard from time to time. At that time, every time there was an explosion, I felt terrified, because you didn't know where the enemy's shells would fall. The happiest moment was the whole process of liberating Bulgaria. We attacked very quickly, and everything seemed to be vivid. The local residents regarded us as real liberators, welcomed us with flowers and treated us warmly with apples."

Terekhova was awarded the Second Class Order of the Great Patriotic War, the Order of the Red Star, and the Order for the Defense of the Caucasus.

Wang Liang: "Thank you for everything you have done for the Anti-Japanese War."

"My name is Vera Ilinichna Tvarishvili from Georgia."

Twarishvili was recruited into the army in [-]. After a very short training, she was assigned to the Stalingrad Artillery Regiment.

To this day, she still remembers the weight of those shells, which are heavy, "Each shell weighs [-] kilograms. The superior ordered us girls to take them out of the shell box and put them into the cannon again. All day long to do these things."

"The artillery position is the focus of the enemy's attack. There are constant explosions and debris flying around. We moved to Kursk at the end of the year, where we experienced the most tragic bombing. Nearly [-] enemy planes threw bombs at us frantically. The whole land was overturned, and I really didn't expect that I would survive in the end."

At the end of the war, Twarishvili was assigned to the 268th Aviation Regiment of the Honorary Order of the Red Banner.

There she also reaped her love and met the pilot's husband.

Her husband had already passed away.

Tewarishvili was awarded the Second Class Order of the Great Patriotic War, the Order of the Red Star and the Order of Courage.

"Anti-government veterans have no borders, they should be accepted and respected by the whole world!"

"They must have suffered a lot. There are many veterans like this in China. I don't know how they are doing. I feel sad seeing these."

"There are many heroic deeds of Soviet soldiers and civilians in World War II. Due to the influence of Cold War politics and Cold War culture, they have been deliberately ignored by the Western world for many years, making the heroic deeds of the Soviet Union against the Communist Party little known. Those who participated in the defense Veterans who survived the Civil War are not doing well."

"Old soldiers wither, but the spirit never dies!"

Wang Liang let out a long sigh: "It's been so long, I still remember these few scenes. The old soldier in the former Soviet military uniform with medals on his chest is sitting on a park bench, looking for or waiting for him. Comrades. This veteran, since the end of World War II, has gone to the same place in Gorky Park in Moscow every year to meet his comrades. This is their agreement. He did not miss any military parade, but he is the only one who attends the appointment every year .”

"A veteran soldier was walking on the parade road. No policeman stopped him because he had a heavy medal on his chest. I saw him holding flowers and balloons, surrounded by crowds watching the parade. But he was alone, only He was able to wipe his tears with his hands, crying very aggrieved. I know why he was crying, all comrades who have passed away.”

"Veterans, still stick to the optimism on the battlefield and bravely face their own lives. Veterans don't die, they just forge ahead."
