On August 1st, we accompanied the officers and soldiers of the People's Armed Forces Department of Yanling County, Hunan Province to Taiyuan Village in Miandu Town, the hometown of martyr Lin Kaisheng. In front of Lin Kaisheng's tomb, not only stood his family, but also a group of students. The children had solemn expressions, each holding a small white flower made of paper in their hands. More than 20 years have passed, thank you to the troops and children, thank you for coming to visit my son, "said Lin Guoping, the father of Lin Kaisheng, emotionally. In the winter of 2001, Lin Kaisheng and his fellow townsman Xiao Chengbao bid farewell to their hometown and enlisted in Aksu, Xinjiang. During his service, Lin Kaisheng joined the CPC, became a monitor, and won third class honors. In 2006, Lin Kaisheng retired and became a civil servant in Yingerlike Township, Shule County, Kashgar City. On a day in July 2011, while carrying out official duties, Lin Kaisheng was killed by criminals in order to protect collective property. At around 1pm that afternoon, Chen Fengxiang's phone rang and the caller ID was her son Lin Kaisheng. Sheng Er, is that you? "Chen Fengxiang asked excitedly. There was no sound in the receiver, only an extremely faint sound - that was the last message left by Lin Kaisheng, who was on the brink of death, to his mother with all his strength. On this day, there are only 7 days left until Lin Kaisheng's 28th birthday. Lin Kaisheng and Lin Kaili were the soldiers I sent back then. ”Zhang Zhimin, the leader of Yuanshizhou Township (now known as Miandu Town), told us. Lin Kaisheng's great grandfather Lin Rongkui joined the Red Army, and his uncle Lin Guoxiong also served as a soldier. Zhang Zhimin said that this is a red family full of emotions towards the military camp. After bringing Lin Kaisheng's ashes home, the family decided to bury him on the mountain behind the house. Zhang Zhimin told us that just after the 2012 Spring Festival, both the Lin family and the children went into battle. On the chilly days of spring, Lin Kaili waded into the icy river to retrieve stones and lay the foundation for the tomb; His newlywed wife, Axia, braved the north wind and made trips to the mountains to move stones; Lin Guoping and his wife made homemade adobe to build a wall... Lin Kaisheng's comrades, such as Xiao Chengbao, often come to "help". Before August 1st, 2023, Lin Kaisheng's tomb will be built. Afterwards, during Qingming and August 1st, local schools often organized children to bring flowers to the martyrs. Lin Shangzhi, the grandfather of Lin Kaisheng, also came to the tomb with a cane and told the children about Lin Kaisheng's deeds. That day, Lin Guoping pointed to the misty mountain top and told us that Lin Kaisheng often followed him here to chop firewood before enlisting. The tombstone of our son faces towards the direction of the Pamir Plateau, which was initially set by Lin Guoping: 'My son fought and sacrificed in the Pamir, and even if he leaves, he will surely want to look at the Pamir Plateau from afar.' We came to the tomb to pay our respects, and in the photo, Lin Kaisheng's youthful face exuded a strong aura. The children gently placed the white flowers in their hands in front of the tombstone, and every time they bent down and bowed, it was like saying 'Please rest assured'. The officers and soldiers also witnessed a silent relay. Yang Bo, the leader of the People's Armed Forces Department of Yanling County, said, "Today, we must inherit the spirit and qualities of the 'old squad leader'!" More than 20 years ago, Lin Kaisheng and his comrade Xiao Chengbao clapped and encouraged each other, "When we return from the army, we will plant fruit trees, build mountain ponds, and carve out mountain roads together." Today, a newly built cement road leads directly from the village to the outside of the mountain. The reservoir in the village has been reinforced, and yellow peaches and white plums have greened the barren mountains. Red tourism routes and homestays are also under construction. Xiao Chengbao, who has already served as the village branch secretary, said, "Kaisheng must be very pleased to see the beautiful hometown
