November 1949, Chongqing Dadukou Wharf, in Led by company commander Luo Xiangqian and instructor Wu Qiang, the soldiers crossed the river on a four-leaf bamboo raft.

A fierce gun battle suddenly broke out near the Dadukou Steel Plant. Luo Qianqian ordered to go at full speed for reinforcements. It was the largest steel plant in the southwest. The remaining Kuomintang troops secretly buried a lot of explosives in the steel plant to blow it up in one fell swoop., Captain Liu led the workers of the factory protection team to defend the gate desperately. The two sides launched a fierce battle. The enemy's firepower was strong, and the factory protection team suffered heavy casualties. They were anxiously waiting for support.

The bamboo raft rushed towards the pier like an arrow from the string. Suddenly, a group of remaining Kuomintang troops rushed out from the pier. They fired wildly at the bamboo raft. Luo Xiangqian gave an order, and the soldiers disembarked together and started a fierce battle with the enemy.

Luo Qianqian charged forward. The soldiers braved the hail of bullets and moved forward bravely. However, the enemy's artillery fire was fierce and they could not reach the shore. Luo Qianqian asked the soldiers to put up the bamboo raft as a shield and continued to move forward. He grabbed a machine gun and placed it next to him.cover.

After a bloody battle, the soldiers finally repelled the enemy. Luo Qianqian led the soldiers ashore and went straight to the steel factory. When the enemy saw this, they were frightened and fled for their lives.

Luo Xiangqian arranged for soldiers to rescue the wounded and carefully checked whether there were any enemies who had not had time to escape. The factory protection team suffered all casualties. Captain Liu was seriously injured. He was still alive. He used his last breath to report to Luo Xiangqian what happened in the factory.situation, and then died heroically.

Early the next morning, several Kuomintang agents who had a chance to escape went back to report to the commissioner. The commissioner was furious because the plan to blow up the steel plant failed. He arranged new tasks for the agents and issued a death order. Once the operation failed, they would be killed.Just die to apologize.

At the same time, Army Commander Zhao Guoliang and Chief of Staff Liu Xinmin arrived by boat at the Southwest Military and Political Headquarters. They were ordered to meet with Deng Xiaoping, the First Secretary of the Southwest Bureau of the Central Committee and Vice Chairman of the Southwest Commission for Justice and Uprightness. Deng Xiaoping arranged a tough battle for them——Construction of the Chengdu-Chongqing Railway began in the late Qing Dynasty. Due to the stupidity and corruption of the Qing government, the construction of this railway was suspended for 40 years. This was Deng Xiaoping's heartache.

The regiment leader ordered Luo Qianqian to lead his direct company into Chongqing urban area for military control. The instructor stated on the spot that he would put the safety of people's lives and property first. The regiment leader arranged for the eighth company to be responsible for the security of the steel plant on behalf of the direct company.The eighth company commander Zhou Dafeng promised to complete the mission, but Luo Xiangqian was unwilling to do so. He and Zhou Dafeng started a verbal battle, and finally gave up the fruits of victory.

Deng Xiaoping entrusted Liu Bocheng to call He Long, the third secretary of the Southwest Bureau of the Central Committee, vice chairman of the Southwest Military and Political Commission, and commander of the Southwest Military Region, and asked him to establish the engineering headquarters of the Southwest Railway Bureau as soon as possible. He Long organized 30,000 soldiers to invest in the construction of the Chengdu-Chongqing Railway.

The Southwest Railway Engineering Bureau was quickly established. Zhao Guoliang and Liu Xinmin served as the director and deputy director respectively. They immediately held a preparatory meeting and announced the plan for the Chengdu-Chongqing Railway in public. Wen Jia was a railway expert. He was extremely excited and made an impassioned speech in public.In his speech, Sha Menghai, former Minister of Transportation of the Qing government, also said that he would go all out.When the Kuomintang commissioner learned of this, he formulated a detailed sabotage plan, starting with the wedding tomorrow. The commissioner arranged for spies to assassinate the railway experts attending the wedding.

Today is the wedding day of Ye Lan and Sha Kai. The wedding was held in the Catholic Church. Relatives and friends came to congratulate. Sha Kai’s parents died and his uncle Sha Menghai raised him. Ye Lan’s mother and Sha Menghai expressed their gratitude to the newlyweds respectively.Give my heartfelt blessings.

Wen Jia and railway bureau experts then arrived, and the wedding officially began. There was a sudden explosion in the church, and the scene was chaotic. The Kuomintang agents took advantage of the chaos to shoot at the guests. Luo Qianqian led the soldiers to arrive in time, and the agents were frightened.escape.Luo Xiangqian picked up the unconscious Ye Lan without saying a word. Ye Lan woke up in a daze. She wanted to go back to save Sha Kai. Luo Xiangqian hugged her tightly, and Ye Lan was right next to Luo Xiangqian.A hard bite on the arm.Fortunately, Sha Kai was safe and sound, so Ye Lan was willing to give up.

Luo Xiangqian deduced that the explosion was the work of Kuomintang agents, and the target was Wenjia and experts from the Railway Bureau.

Zhao Guoliang and Liu Xinmin held an emergency meeting to start construction of the Chengdu-Chongqing Railway immediately. The experts truthfully expressed their concerns. Chongqing had just been liberated, and Kuomintang agents were frequently sabotaging it. Coupled with lack of technology and experience, Zhao Guoliang hoped that the experts present would give full play to their strengths.Experts were also dispatched from all over the country to provide support. Wen Jia suggested that railway expert Tian Jian be brought in to help.

The regiment leader handed over five soldiers from the Kuomintang uprising force to Luo Xiangqian, and arranged the Kuomintang company commander Zhang Biao to the Pioneer Company as deputy company commander. Luo Xiangqian was very worried about this, and Wu Qiang gave him good advice.Zhang Biao brought five soldiers to the Pioneer Company to report. Luo Xiangqian taught them discipline. The soldier immediately noticed that Luo Xiangqian looked down on them and protested to Luo Xiangqian in person, making it clear that they were insurrectionary troops and not prisoners. Zhang BiaoBiao was also dissatisfied with Luo Xiangqian. Wu Qiang hurriedly stepped forward to rescue them and told them the history of the Pioneer Company.

Zhao Guoliang and Liu Xinmin visited Tian Jian in person, but were turned away. They had to wait patiently before Tian Jian would see them. Zhao Guoliang explained his intention and asked Tian Jian to come out to build the Chengdu-Chongqing Railway. Tian Jian flatly refused. He participated in the planning of this project many times.He was already frustrated, so Zhao Guoliang and Liu Xinmin had no choice but to leave in disappointment.

Wen Jia and Sha Menghai came to see Zhao Guoliang. Zhao Guoliang was worried about Tian Jian's rejection. Wen Jia came up with the idea to ask Ye Lan to invite Tian Jian. Ye Lan is Tian Jian's proud disciple. Sha Menghai immediately went to Ye Lan.

Seeing that Luo Xiangqiang was angry with Zhang Biao, Wu Qiang comforted Luo Xiangqiang and found Zhang Biao to talk to Zhang Biao about his own experience of being born in poverty.
