The number that moved China in 2008?

Comrade Meng Xiangbin 1979 was born in a peasant family in Qiao Liu Village, Liuqiao Town, Qihe County. 1997 After graduating from high school, he joined an antiaircraft artillery regiment in Lanzhou Military Region with full enthusiasm for national defense and border defense. 1September, 1999, recommended by the organization, she was admitted to Lanzhou Branch of China People's Liberation Army Information Engineering University. In June 2002, he gloriously joined the China Production Party, and graduated in the same year and was assigned to work in the confidential department of our headquarters. In September 2005, due to my outstanding performance in my work, I was recommended to be admitted to an engineering college to study in a junior college. He returned from his studies in July this year and served as a lieutenant officer in our department before his death. On June 30th, 2007, Comrade Meng Xiangbin died heroically at the age of 28 because he risked his life to save a young woman who jumped into the river.

In February 2008, 17 was named the person who moved China in 2007.

He took the lead in jumping into the river to save people.

Yesterday at noon 1 1: 20, Ms. Zhu, who passed the Chengnan Bridge by bike, witnessed the incident. At that time, she saw many people gathered on the bridge deck on the east side. When she looked over, she knew that someone had jumped into the river. Ms. Zhu said: "At this time, there are only onlookers, and no one is going to save. My first thought is to call 1 10 to call the police and notify the news media. Just after the phone call, I heard someone shouting. At first glance, a man took off his coat and shoes and jumped off the bridge. "

Aunt Wang, who witnessed the process of soldiers jumping into the river to save people, said with red eyes and tears: "He is an officer. I saw his military officer's card. He passed by here with his wife and two or three-year-old daughter. When he heard someone jump into the river, he jumped in to save lives. Before jumping, we asked him anxiously if he could. He said he could swim, no problem. After he jumped, he swam to the woman who jumped into the river. At first, it was fine. We saw him catch the drowning woman and help her swim to the shore, but before long, he shouted' I can't stand it'. We see it in our eyes and are anxious in our hearts! At this time, a man swam to the shore and a speedboat arrived soon. Some people put down a rope from the bridge, but the rope was too short for the people to come. We watched helplessly as the good official who saved people slowly sank. "

His behavior touched the onlookers.

Also an officer swam from the shore to save people. His name is Cai Qunsong, director of the Office of the First Armed Police Traffic Corps, and he is from Jindong District. "Only two meters. If I have the strength to swim a little longer, I can catch him. " Speaking of the situation at that time, Cai Qunsong was deeply saddened by the failure to rescue the officers.

Cai Qunsong said: "I just returned to Jinhua from Chengdu for a holiday and drove by here. When I saw the situation here, the police officer had jumped. I thought I was good at swimming, so I ran to the shore, took off my clothes and swam to help in my shorts. When I swam there, a speedboat arrived. After I helped the people on the speedboat rescue the woman who jumped into the river, I wanted to go to the police officer again. He has sunk. The people on the bridge shouted' left, right' desperately, as if to guide me to the position of the officer, but it was too chaotic at that time, and I was stiff with cold because I was in the water for a long time. If I don't swim back, I can't do it myself, so I have to give up at last. When I swam back, fortunately, the people on the speedboat threw me a lifebuoy. "

Regarding the behavior of the officer who jumped into the river, Cai Qunsong praised: "This is the real soldier. It takes a lot of courage to jump off such a high bridge. His behavior deserves the title of a soldier! "

The man on the speedboat rescued the woman who jumped into the river. When they returned to the shore to save the officer who jumped into the river to save people, he could no longer see him on the river. After the woman who jumped into the river was sent to the Fifth Hospital of the city for rescue, news of safety came soon, but the whereabouts of the police officers who could save people were still unknown. The crowd of onlookers did not disperse, but gathered more and more, and people waited anxiously.

At 1 38 pm, the search and rescue personnel salvaged the officer who fell into the water and sent him to the municipal hospital of traditional Chinese medicine for rescue. A large number of onlookers spontaneously followed the hospital. Although there is little hope, everyone is holding a glimmer of hope. Until 3: 03 pm, the doctor announced that the rescue was invalid and the bad news came. Many people were in tears. "He doesn't deserve to die!" The onlookers, Mrs. Wu, had tears in her eyes and then was silent.

The rescued woman who jumped into the river burst into tears when she heard the news of her benefactor's death. The rescued woman surnamed Li, from Wenzhou, is 23 years old this year. For the reason of jumping into the river, she simply said that her boyfriend asked her to come over, but she couldn't wait when she arrived. In a rage, she dumped her mobile phone and jumped into the river.

He is an excellent officer.

Since her husband went into the water to save people, his wife and young daughter waited anxiously for nearly four hours, but in the end, her wife still didn't see her husband's smile. The phrase "I can swim" that my husband said before he jumped into the river to save people, and the phrase "I can't stand it" that he said when he jumped into the river became the last words left for his wife and daughter. The young petite wife was so miserable that she rushed to the railing several times to jump into the river, but was stopped by the kind onlookers Ms. Zhu and others.

During the search and rescue of the rescue officer, the commander, political commissar and comrades-in-arms of his unit arrived. "His name is Meng Xiangbin. He is 28 years old. He is from Shandong. Graduated from university, 1997 joined the army. After the army transferred to Jinhua in 2002, he followed, and now he is the staff of the army confidential department. He is an excellent officer. " Zhang, political commissar of the army, said: "The army has been very busy recently. He hasn't taken a vacation for three months. Yesterday, Meng Xiao's wife, who was teaching in Jiangxi, brought her mother and their three-year-old daughter to visit relatives. The army specially made up for him. It is rare for their family of three to get together, and no one expected that something would happen. " At this point, the head of the army shed a line of tears on his resolute face.

Yesterday afternoon, after learning the news of Meng Xiangbin's accident, the person in charge of the city's "Double Support Office" rushed to the hospital. After the death, city leaders Wu, Wu and Wu expressed their condolences to the hero's family on behalf of the municipal party Committee, the municipal government and the Jinhua Army Division. The person in charge of the hero's army said that his advanced deeds have been reported, and the army set up a leading group headed by the commander of the army to sort out the heroic deeds and prepare for the next publicity.

Hero, wake up

"Meng staff, you wake up! Wake up! " Comrades in the emergency room shouted eagerly ... The citizens waiting outside the door also shouted softly, "Jinhua hero, wake up" ... This heartbreaking cry didn't wake Meng Xiangbin up after all, and he fell asleep forever. Our reporter Zhu She

(Reporter Chen Yujie) From 0: 20 am to 6: 38 am yesterday, hundreds of citizens gathered at Wujiang Dam and Sakura Park on the north side of Nanqiao in the urban area, and everyone scrambled to tell the story of a PLA officer who bravely saved a girl who jumped into the river. In more than two hours, the citizens waited anxiously with tears in their eyes, waiting for a miracle-the deputy lieutenant's staff in a confidential department in Jin was able to survive smoothly.

On-site citizen: "Such a good person must save him!"

Yesterday morning 1 1: 20, the command center of the municipal public security bureau received an alarm from the public, saying that a young woman had jumped into the Wujiang River from the railing on the east side of the southern section of Nanqiao. When the reporter heard the news and rushed to the scene, he learned that the young woman who jumped into the river had been successfully rescued and sent to the Fifth Hospital of the city for treatment. The reporter saw that hundreds of people gathered on the sidewalk on the east side of Chengnan Bridge and the Wujiang Dam on the north side of Sakura Park. Everyone is worried about the delay in the arrival of rescuers.

"Such a good person must save him!" Xu, 50, told reporters that she was riding an electric bicycle from Jiangnan to Jiangbei when she saw a man jump into Wujiang River from the east railing of the south section of Chengnan Bridge to save people. The man's wife and daughter are also standing by the railing. "On such a day, how cold the water should be. We are looking forward to this child coming ashore early. " An aunt said that she stood on the bridge and watched the man who saved people sink into the water. At that time, her heart ached and tears flowed down. Under her crying, I don't know who brought a rope from the railing and put it on the river, but it's a pity that the rope can't reach the rescuer.

Thanks to the efforts of the police and the people, the rescue man was salvaged yesterday afternoon 1: 38. Many onlookers shed tears when they saw the hero who was pale with cold and had no breathing and heartbeat. Subsequently, the Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine launched an all-out rescue for him for more than an hour, but in the end, due to the long drowning time, by 3: 03 pm, the medical staff had to give up the rescue of the man.

Witness: He shouted before he sank.

"Somebody help me."

Ms. Xiong, 36, witnessed the whole incident. "At about 1 1, I was washing clothes under the dam near the cherry blossom park in Qiaotou, south of the city. At that time, I saw a young woman wearing a reddish coat and a black skirt on the east side of the south section of Chengnan Bridge. It seems that she is not very happy. As she spoke, she suddenly dropped her mobile phone on the ground, then took off two shoes and threw them on the road. She climbed the railing and jumped into the river. "

Xiong told reporters that shortly after the young woman jumped into the river, a man in a red sweater jumped into Wujiang River from the east railing of the south section of Chengnan Bridge to save people. "The woman who jumped into the river sank in the river and floated in the river. Rescuers held her in the river for a while and shouted, "Who will help?" Maybe he was exhausted, and then he continued to hold the woman in place. At this moment, a man in leather casual clothes next to me took off his coat and shoes and swam around in the water to help. Then, a motorboat came to save people. When the motorboat approached the woman, I saw that the man in the red sweater had sunk. "

It is understood that the man wearing a red sweater is called, 28 years old this year. He is a lieutenant's staff officer in a confidential department of a certain department in Shanxi and a native of Qihe County, Shandong Province. The man who saved the young woman who jumped into the river after the Meng Xiangbin incident is also an active soldier. His name is Cai Qunsong, 42, director of the Office of the First Armed Police Traffic Corps. "These days, I went back to my hometown in Jinhua from Chengdu. 1 1 Walk from Jiangnan to Jiangbei in the morning. When I passed the south bridge of the south bridge in downtown, I heard many people shouting' help'. I ran to the north side of Sakura Park and swam to save people. When the motorboat came to save people, I was two or three meters away from Meng Xiangbin who jumped into the river from the bridge to save people. Seeing him sink, I swam to catch him with my hands, but I didn't catch him. Later, I stayed where I was looking. Several people driving motorboats sent the woman to the shore and came back to look for it. There was no result. "

In this way, in order to save the life of a complete stranger, Meng Xiangbin, a young officer, died heroically in Wujiang, the mother river of his second hometown.

After a preliminary understanding, the young woman who jumped into the river is surnamed Li, 23 years old this year, from Wenzhou. At present, her life is not in danger, and the reason for jumping into the river may be related to personal frustration.

Daughter: "Is Dad too tired to sleep?"

Yesterday at noon, while waiting for the police to salvage, Meng Xiangbin's wife cried into tears. She said that the day before yesterday, she took her daughter from Yiyang, Jiangxi to visit relatives in a certain department of Jin. Meng Xiangbin, who was very busy at work some time ago, took a special leave of absence yesterday to accompany his wife and daughter to see downtown Jinhua. Unexpectedly, in order to save people, the husband was still alive and dead on the way.

After the incident, Zhang Jianqiang, commander of a certain unit stationed in Kim, and Colonel Zhang Fengzhong, political commissar, rushed to the scene to learn about the situation. At 3: 03 pm yesterday, I learned that Meng Xiangbin died after being rescued. Zhang Fengzhong sobbed at the entrance of the emergency room of the Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine and told the reporter: "Meng Xiangbin is an excellent officer. Losing him is a great loss for our army. "

Last night, Wu, the city leader, rushed to Kim's department to express his condolences to his wife. Faced with many caring people, Meng Xiangbin's 3-year-old daughter naively asked her tearful mother, "Is Dad too tired to sleep?" When you say this, everyone around you is embarrassed.

A person touched a city.

-Jinhua citizens spontaneously mourned Meng Xiangbin.

On the south bridge of the city, Meng Xiangbin jumped miserably. The good soldier of the motherland left, the mother's good son left, his wife's good husband left, and his daughter's good father left ... but he was deeply engraved in the heart of Jin Chinese. Last night, the candlelight by the Wujiang River lit a fire in Jinhua people's hearts, which is called the honor and mission of * * * and soldiers!

The day before yesterday, the heroic deeds of Meng Xiangbin, a kind-hearted man, were circulated among Jinhua citizens. Yesterday, this name was well known by more Jinzhong people and even the people of the whole province and the whole country. In the streets, in the army before the death of the hero, in the place where the hero died, many people who knew or didn't know were spontaneously mourning and remembering the hero in various ways.

Army officer: He has many bright spots.

The story of Meng Xiangbin's brave rescue of the drowning woman has spread all over his army. In the dormitory building where Meng Xiangbin lives, comrades in the same teaching group have written their own speeches, which are covered with posters. Zhang Xiaolong, a comrade-in-arms, said: "When the country is in danger, it is our soldiers who are in charge; When people's lives and property are threatened, it is our soldiers who rush forward; It is our hero who saved others' lives with his own life. Pay tribute to the hero and pay tribute to the hero's family. "

"It is very normal for this to happen to Meng Xiao." Zhang Jianqiang, commander of the Army, said that being a hero is only a matter of an instant, but it is inseparable from his ideological realm. Meng Xiangbin is a member of the People's Liberation Army and an outstanding representative. He used his own behavior to interpret the qualities that soldiers should have, and promoted Socialism with Chinese characteristics's spiritual civilization.

As a comrade-in-arms who studied in the same military academy, worked in the same department and lived in the same dormitory after graduation, Wang Changrui, a staff officer, knew Meng Xiangbin better than anyone else. "Meng Xiangbin studious. He left a motto on the title page of one of his textbooks-learn everything clearly and be a man in advance. He used to be a soldier. Through hard work, he was admitted to the military academy and obtained a junior college degree from China People's Liberation Army Information Engineering University. After graduation, he was assigned to our army. In the army, he still didn't stop studying. In 2005, he was selected to enter the Second Artillery Engineering College of the Chinese People's Liberation Army for "college-upgraded undergraduate" study with excellent results. At the party congress held by the school, he was also elected as the only party representative among the five or six hundred people in our department. "

Hu Huaining, director of the Political Department of the PLA, said that Meng Xiao was not only eager to learn and make progress, but also worked very hard. After he returned to the army in July this year, Meng Xiao, who stayed for two years, needed to learn a lot of knowledge because the equipment of the army was updated quickly, but he caught up in just a few months and did well in two major training sessions this year. As a Shandong native, Meng Xiao is straightforward, honest and caring. In recent years, the army has given subsidies to poor families, but he has pushed them all away, saying that they are reserved for those who need help more. He participated in every blood donation, love donation, winter clothes donation organized by the army and Jinhua's "one-day donation" activity.

Hero's wife: He is my pride.

Although all the officers and men in Meng Xiangbin know that Meng Xiangbin's family is difficult, Meng Xiangbin usually only keeps 200 yuan for daily consumption and remits the rest. What they don't know, however, is that Meng Xiangbin's parents are now in hospital. Father's heart is not good and he needs surgery, and the medical expenses of 70,000 to 80,000 have not yet been settled. My mother suffered from diabetes in her early years, so she was too tired to take care of her wife and was hospitalized for intravenous drip. And Meng Xiangbin's mother-in-law can't be overworked because of diabetes.

A few days ago, Meng Xiangbin's wife, Ye Qinghua, called and hoped that he could go home and have a look, but Meng Xiangbin was silent for a while and said "I know", but in the end he didn't ask for leave from the army or tell his comrades.

On the day of the accident, Meng Xiangbin's army began to have a holiday, and Meng Xiangbin's three-year-old daughter was ill. He asked his wife to take her to Jinhua to see a doctor. Luo Chunhua, Meng Xiangbin's mother-in-law, said, "During his1/kloc-0 years as a soldier in Meng Xiao, he seldom came to Jiangxi (his wife and mother were both in Jiangxi), and even less went back to his hometown in Shandong. They have only come back five or six times in five years of marriage. When Qing Ye Watson was a child, Meng Xiao was not there until the child was full moon. "

Nevertheless, Meng Xiangbin's mother-in-law still likes this son-in-law. As a wife, Ye Qinghua loves her husband with no regrets. Due to excessive grief, she fainted several times. She didn't say much, but what she said was very touching.

Ye Qinghua said, "Xiang Bin didn't leave me many messages. I just arrived in Jinhua, and he said he felt sorry for me and didn't have much time to spend with me. But he vowed to take care of me and love me for life. Unexpectedly, the next day, he was separated from me by Yin and Yang. I also have a selfish side. Before he dived, I caught him and said it was too dangerous. I had to swim from the shore to save him. He said it was too late to listen to my advice. I saw him hold the drowning woman for five or six minutes, and then shouted' I can't do it'. At that moment, I almost went crazy. Although my husband left me, I have no regrets. Because I know I chose a soldier, and that's what a soldier should be like. I am proud of my husband! "

Rescued woman: Sorry benefactor.

I understand that the rescuer's family lives in Yuan Jinhua Resort. Yesterday morning, Li, a woman who jumped into the river, rushed over with her relatives. After seeing Ye Qinghua sitting by the bed, three people knelt in front of her and sobbed. "I'm sorry I hurt your husband." Li Dongyang hugged Ye Qinghua's leg and refused to get up for a long time.

Ye Qinghua also shed tears. She comforted each other and said, "Get up, all of you. My husband is a soldier. He should do this. You are still young, so cherish your life. As long as you can live well in the future, it is the best reward for my husband. "

On the south bridge: spontaneous mourning of the masses

Yesterday, I don't know when it started. At the railing of Meng Xiangbin, the South Bridge in Jinhua City, a banner of "Mourning for the Hero Meng Xiangbin" was erected, and there was an endless stream of mourners here, which soon caused traffic jams, and the relevant departments subsequently implemented traffic control.

1 1: 30, the memorial service reached its climax. Hundreds of officers and men of the Meng Xiangbin Army came to the scene to pay tribute to Huang Juhua and shouted in unison: "Meng Xiangbin, we are coming to see you!" Then, bow to Banner Three.

Then, a more touching scene appeared. Hundreds of citizens lined up on the south bridge of the city. Holding Huang Juhua, they walked to the banner one by one, presented flowers and bowed.

There are gray-haired old people in the crowd, couples holding hands, and parents holding their children. Among them, a pair of young men and women came from Yiwu specially, and a mother-in-law came to receive education with her granddaughter. A young man surnamed Kong and his girlfriend came to offer their condolences. He said: "We learned the news from QQ and specially came to send the hero. Although Meng Xiangbin was not from Jinhua and the rescued woman was not from Jinhua, it happened in Jinhua. His behavior touched us and we are proud of him. "

Netizen: Initiate fund-raising and candlelight vigil.

On the "New Jinhua Forum" of Jinhua News Network, netizens paid unprecedented attention to this incident. As of press time, more than 400 theme posts have been published, with a click rate of 15000. The number of online users in the forum has reached more than 1 100. Everyone expressed sincere admiration.

A post said: "Meng Hero: You are the one who touched the whole Jinhua City!" Some netizens also said: "The hero has passed away and the spirit will last forever. His behavior has brought a breeze to the society: fearless in times of danger, regardless of gains and losses, fearless. With his precious courage and life, he explained the lofty ideal of serving the society and the people of contemporary soldiers. In the process of building a harmonious socialist society today, the times call for this kind of behavior, and society needs this kind of behavior, so we should inherit this spirit. Comrade Meng Xiangbin is our glory and pride. Comrade Meng Xiangbin's lofty spirit and heroic deeds are vivid teaching materials for practicing the socialist concept of honor and disgrace. "

The candlelight vigil initiated by Jinhua News Network "New Jinhua Forum" received enthusiastic response from netizens. At night, the riverbank near Chengnan Bridge once again set off a wave of mourning. Less than 7 pm, the wreaths placed on the bridge fence and river bank have stretched for hundreds of meters. On a piece of land surrounded by the forum organizers, netizens and on-site citizens lit candles, and some put candles into Wujiang to light candles, pinning the endless condolences and memories of the people of Wucheng to the heroes.

On the "New Jinhua Forum", some netizens posted that the electronic screen called "the biggest TV in Jinhua" on the South Bridge of the city would be really touching and real if the advertising content was changed to play pictures and music related to heroes. Relevant parties immediately adopted this suggestion, making the scene even more touching.

At the event site, QQ group, a young volunteer of the city's winter swimming, launched a fund-raising activity to the hero's relatives. Cheng Yan, an ordinary member of Winter Swimming QQ Group, launched this fundraising campaign. She said that the purpose of doing this is to solve some practical difficulties for the hero's family.

The donation box was placed at the event site. Not only QQ group members actively donate money, but two members each donate 1 0,000 yuan at most. The citizens at the scene also responded positively. Many citizens turned to put money into the donation box after lighting candles. A lady refused to give an interview, donated 1000 and turned away. A tricycle driver came home empty-handed and saw the scene of the event. He searched all over his body and found no money. Later, he found out 10 yuan from the money bag hidden under the tricycle seat and put it in the donation box. Another couple folded hundred-dollar bills into paper cranes and donated them. There are also mothers with babies, primary school students wearing red scarves, suits and simple clothes ... The night is already deep, and the event site is still crowded with people.

The story of a young officer who bravely saved the diving woman's life attracted the attention of major media. The media in Xinhuanet, People.com, Tencent.com, Qianlong.com and the central and provincial capitals all reported this. Domestic mainstream media have sent reporters to Kim for interviews.

The Man Who Came Back

At 0: 30 pm on February 5, 2007, with the deep concern of the army chief, leaders of Jinhua City, officers and soldiers of the army and citizens, with the slow start of the train from Jinhua to Shenyang North, Meng Xiangbin's relatives took the hero's ashes on a trip to Shandong.

Major General Deng Tiansheng, Senior Colonel Bi Yongjun, Senior Colonel Zhao Shufeng, Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee and Mayor, and Sun Huajun, political commissar of Jinhua Military Division, saw him off at the station.

After the body of the day before yesterday was cremated in Jin, many citizens called or posted on the forum to ask when the hero's ashes left Jin. They finally want to give the hero a ride.

Yesterday at noon, my brother Meng and my sister said that they had made a decision to take all their ashes back. Because Shandong is the hometown of Confucius and Mencius, it is deeply influenced by Confucian cultural traditions. Old people hope that the fallen leaves will return to their roots, and even if they die in a foreign country, they will take their ashes back.

Last night, it was reported that Meng Xiangbin's relatives would return to their hometown in Shandong by train that evening. Before they leave, they will take Meng Xiangbin's ashes and take another look at the city. Although the news was kept strictly confidential, many people learned about it through various channels.

From 8 o'clock last night, hundreds of citizens gathered on the South Bridge where Meng Xiangbin was killed and on the banks of Wujiang River. They all came to say goodbye to the hero. In the waiting crowd, Chen Bin from New Century Property Management Company is touching. He will go to Shandong with the love of Jinhua people and the spirit of Meng Xiangbin. Before he left, he packed a handful of soil from the heroic army, a bottle of water from the Wujiang River sacrificed by the hero, and a paper crane specially made by Jinhua bergamot and folded by Jinhua students overnight.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, Meng Xiangbin's wife Ye Qinghua set out from her residence and went to the city funeral home to take out her husband's urn. Holding the urn, Ye Qinghua said softly, "We will go back to Meng Xiangbin's home, and I will take you back to Meng Xiangbin ... I will take good care of the children in Meng Xiangbin and the elderly at home ..."

Then, the motorcade set off from the funeral home, went to the army station where Meng Xiangbin lived, and finally took a look at his troops. The officers and men of the army lined up to welcome Meng Xiangbin and bid him farewell with the highest courtesy.

In the afternoon 10, 13, the motorcade came to the south bridge. Two soldiers got off the hearse with a huge portrait of Meng Xiangbin, and Meng Xiangbin's wife walked slowly towards the South Bridge where her husband died, holding a bone helmet box wrapped in party flag. The soldiers wore military uniforms and paid high tribute to their comrades.

After leaving the Chengnan Bridge, the motorcade carrying the hero's ashes slowly drove around Jinhua City at a speed of 5 kilometers per hour, as if the hero was reluctant to leave the city that trained him and millions of people who loved him deeply.

In the afternoon 1 1, the motorcade arrived at the west station. People who know the news are also waiting here early. Although speechless, people watched the hero's departure with affectionate eyes.

The train slowly left the platform, and the station still echoed with songs written by Jinhua people as heroes. People meditate in their hearts-bon voyage, Xiang Bin!

During the ten-hour drive, passengers came here from other carriages to visit the heroic widow. They came from all corners of the country, silently mourning in front of the carriage, and many people left with red eyes.

At 5pm on February 6th, 2007, with the wailing of the 1034 train, Meng Xiangbin's ashes returned to Qihe, Meng Xiangbin's hometown, under the escort of his wife Ye Qinghua, his sister Xia Meng and the officers and men of the army. In the cold wind, tens of thousands of residents of Qihe County spontaneously came to the station square and counties along the way to welcome the heroes home in a cry.

Shi Haoquan, member of the Standing Committee of Dezhou Municipal Committee and executive deputy mayor; Li Yanhua, member of the Standing Committee of Dezhou Municipal Committee and Minister of Propaganda; Zou Dejia, member of the Standing Committee of Dezhou Municipal Committee and political commissar of Dezhou Military Division; Wei Hongxiang, deputy secretary of Qihe County Party Committee and county magistrate, and other local leaders paid tribute to heroes and undead on the platform.

At the railway station, Meng Xiangbin's hometown held a grand welcoming ceremony for him. Subsequently, Meng Xiangbin's ashes were loaded into a hearse under the escort of armed police officers and soldiers, and slowly drove to the mourning hall in Qiao Liu Village, Qiao Liu Township, his hometown.

Maybe the train can't bear to disturb the resting soul of the hero. 1034 train was supposed to arrive at Yancheng Railway Station in Qihe County at 4: 50 pm, and did not enter the platform until 5 pm. After the train door was opened, Li, the former army lieutenant's staff officer, slowly stepped off the train with a dignified expression, holding an urn covered with party flag in his hand. Later, Meng Xiangbin's wife Ye Qinghua hugged her husband's portrait and was very sad. With the help of relatives, she staggered onto the platform.

On the platform, the officers and men of the armed police who had been waiting for a long time took the urn from the staff officer Li and slowly put it into the wooden coffin. Then, under the escort of two armed police officers and soldiers, four armed police officers and soldiers carried Meng Xiangbin's coffin and marched out of the station.

On the railway station square, the hearse that had already stopped there was filled with wreaths. Armed police officers and soldiers put the hero's coffin on the hearse, which was cleaned by six police motorcycles and 1 police car. Amid the shouts of people along the way, they slowly sailed to Qiao Liu Village, Qiao Liu Township, Meng Xiangbin's hometown.

At 6 o'clock in the evening, the hearse drove into Qiao Liu Village, and Meng Xiangbin's soul returned to his native land where he was born and raised. Four officers and men of the Armed Police put Meng Xiangbin's coffin into the mourning hall filled with wreaths amid heavy sadness and music.

On the 6th, Meng Xiangbin will spend the last night in his hometown. On the afternoon of the 7th, his heroic spirit will be buried in the Martyrs Cemetery in Qihe County.
