Veteran never die

Chapter 314 Remember the Year: 1959
0316 Remember the year: 1959
"1959, 1959, 1959." Wang Liang repeated three times in a row.

Anyone who knows a little bit about history knows that 1959 was a huge watershed.

Everything is changing silently.

Wang Liang is a soldier.

Soldier is the name given to military personnel who serve in the national army.

Similar to ancient warriors and knights.

The duty of the soldiers is to defend national security, defend and protect the country's borders, the stability of the government, and social stability.

Politics has nothing to do with soldiers.

On October 1959, 10, at ten o'clock in the morning in Peking.

As the mayor of Beiping announced: "The celebration of the [-]th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China begins!"

The grand military parade began.

The officers and soldiers under review wore new-style clothing that was improved on the basis of the fifth-and-fifth-style clothing, showing a more majestic spirit.

Columnar starts.

The heroic army, navy and air force of the People's Liberation Army passed through Tiananmen Square for review with a majestic lineup.

The August [-]st military flag fluttering in the wind guides the ranks of military academies.

The first parade formed by military academy students to pass through Tiananmen Square.

The cadets were dressed in sea-blue army uniforms, golden epaulettes, and embroidered patterns of military and arms on their lapels. They walked neatly and accepted the review of the party and the people.

They lined up in 24 columns, full of energy, and marched forward in unison.

Cadets from the Infantry School, Artillery School, Engineers School, Tank School, Railway Corps School, Air Force School, and Naval School pass right after the Military Academy.

They formed neatly and walked vigorously, and were warmly welcomed by the audience.

The reviewing troops were equipped with the latest automatic rifles, artillery, tanks and fighter planes, all newly manufactured by our country.

The great motherland, which is leaping towards industrialization, is equipped with various modern weapons of the People's Liberation Army.

Naval officers and sailors, the defenders of the motherland's thousands of miles of sea, lined up through Tiananmen Square.

The commanders and fighters of the sailor phalanx, dressed in white sailor uniforms, wearing epaulets, wearing black ribbon sailor caps, holding domestic semi-automatic rifles and gleaming bayonets, are particularly eye-catching.

The People's Navy is already a strong coastal defense force composed of a large number of surface ships, underwater submarines, naval aviation, coastal artillery and other arms.

"Since then, the era when China has seas but no defense, and the great powers can open the country with a few cannons is gone forever!" Wang Liang said.

After the navy phalanx passed through Tiananmen Square, there were six infantry phalanxes.

The commanders and fighters wore steel helmets and held automatic rifles. They walked neatly and powerfully, showing their high level of training.

There are 24 people in each platoon of foot teams, ten platoons, and two leaders. Each team has a total of 240 soldiers.

The well-equipped phalanx of mechanized infantry and airborne troops, carried by 72 Jiefang brand trucks, passed the Jinshui Bridge sequentially in a strong lineup amidst the roar of motors.

The crew of the motorized infantry platoon stood majestically on the truck with submachine guns or automatic rifles.

Crew members of the Airborne Corps, with submachine guns slung across their chests and parachute bags on their backs, stood on the truck for inspection.

"Type 140 crawler tractors and tanks dragging cannons, forming a huge stream of steel and rumbling loudly, drove into Tiananmen Square for review. Seven artillery formations composed of [-] four artillery pieces of various calibers, Wave after wave passed through Tiananmen Square."

That is the power that the Chinese people have been longing for for a long time. Wang Liang continued: "The artillerymen drove long-range cannons of various calibers forward. Among the six types of artillery, five types were made in China. Among them were powerful automated anti-aircraft guns."

Among the artillery units reviewed, one was the earliest artillery unit of the People's Liberation Army. In the Liaoshen Campaign, they showed their prowess and smashed the enemy ships in the battle of liberating Hainan Island.

By 1959, this artillery unit had been equipped with a new type of domestically produced large-caliber cannon, becoming an invincible modern artillery.

The armored corps that was reviewed consisted of 99 tanks.

The first armored formation to be reviewed in the front is equipped with Chinese-made Type [-] medium tanks.

"The Type [-] tank is the first generation of main battle tanks manufactured in my country. It has excellent performance, various latest technical equipment and powerful firepower. It was finalized and put into production in that year. It was equipped with troops and participated in the National Day military parade in that year."

"The Type 80 tank, how many soldiers' feelings back then! Before the [-]s of the last century, the Type [-] tank has always been the main equipment of our armored forces."

There are always veterans who have driven, ridden, or participated in the development of the Type [-] tank in the comment area.

"Old soldiers don't die! The modified Type [-] tank: it can even defeat the third generation of tanks!"

"When I was in the military, I drove the Type [-], and I miss it very much."

"The Type 59 medium tank has been the backbone equipment of the Chinese Army's armored forces for quite a long time. According to foreign publications, from March 1963 to the early 3s, China produced a total of more than 80 Type 59 medium tanks and their improved versions. , of which more than 1 are equipped with the armored forces of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, and the vast majority of these tanks are still in the armored forces of the People's Liberation Army."

"The armored soldiers in 86 passed by. I have driven both Type 59C main battle tanks and Type 59-G main battle tanks."

"I am an old military engineer. The Type 59 medium tank has strong firepower, good armor protection and maneuverability. It is light in weight, small in size, simple in structure, reliable in work, and easy to use and maintain. Since 1968, We received an order from Pakistan Railway. By around 1990, the Pakistani army had a total of about 1300 Type 59 tanks.”

Wang Liang nodded his head in satisfaction, and continued: "When the first formation of armored forces passed Tiananmen Square and the crowd was waving and cheering for the roaring iron stream, the bombers and fighter jets of the People's Air Force who were being reviewed suddenly appeared on the east side of Tiananmen Square. Sky"

Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom

The pilot fleet flew over the square on time, followed by six air echelons, and the last echelon that flew over the square was an echelon composed of J-5 aircraft made in China.

These heroic warhawks, lined up in a neat formation of five aircraft, galloped from east to west like lightning, with thunderous roars, making people dizzying.

These fleets consisted of 150 five jet bombers and fighter jets, flying at an altitude of 350 meters to 500 meters, flying over the square like lightning.

The self-manufactured new supersonic jet fighters shined in the review, and they were driven by the earliest division of the Air Force.

"Remember 1959, I will miss it in the lonely days in the future." Wang Liang said with deep meaning.
