Strive for good men everywhere and be pioneers in everything.

The patrol mileage of safety inspection totaled 134,320 kilometers, participated in railway rescue for 5 times, participated in local rescue for more than 20 times, and took the lead in flood fighting and disaster relief for many times.

When 46-year-old He Junxian fell down on the road of emergency rescue in chengdu-kunming railway, the "Cheng Kun Spirit", which fought against the world, was not afraid of sacrifice, and was indomitable, became a true portrayal of his life.

He Junxian, deputy manager of chengdu-kunming railway Project Department of China Railway 18th Bureau Group Co., Ltd., is as the name implies. From graduation in 1998 to the last moment of his life, he always takes striving for talents everywhere and being a pioneer in everything as his life creed.

From Zhangjiakou to Liucunbao, from the Middle Tianshan Mountains to the Daliangshan Mountains, He Junxian has devoted his youth to the construction of the motherland for more than 20 years, writing great love and extraordinary in ordinary posts with faith, responsibility and action, fully demonstrating the political nature of communist party people "rushing up at critical moments and getting out at critical moments".

A lifetime farewell to rescue

"Debris flow geological disaster occurred in the section from Niri to Suxiong Station in chengdu-kunming railway! At present, the line is interrupted and there is a major danger! Request rescue support! " On August 31st, a geological disaster of debris flow occurred in the section from Niri to Suxiong Station in chengdu-kunming railway.

Late July to early August is the most critical period for flood control in Sichuan Province. The precipitation during the period of "seven rains and eight highs" this year is 1% to 20% higher than the annual average, and the flood control situation is grim. Since August 10th, Sichuan Province has experienced the strongest continuous rainstorm since the flood season. No matter from the precipitation range, precipitation intensity or duration, this rainstorm is a rare continuous rainstorm.

On July 30th, a mudslide occurred from Azhai Station to Baiguo Station in chengdu-kunming railway. On August 2nd, a geological disaster of rockfall occurred in the section from Changheba to Hanyuan in chengdu-kunming railway. On August 11th, Sichuan Geological Disaster Command Office issued meteorological risk warning of geological disasters in the whole province.

Affected by continuous rainfall, floods broke out several times in succession along chengdu-kunming railway, and roads, traffic, electricity and communications in some areas were all interrupted. The chengdu-kunming railway headquarters, which is closest to the disaster site, is the backbone of the flood fighting and emergency rescue.

Since August 18th, He Junxian and his colleagues have been fighting in the front line of flood control, day and night, regardless of skin sunburn and molting, clearing obstacles and repairing them, so as to open life channels for residents along the line and railway construction.

On August 30, heavy rain raged between the big and small Liangshan mountains. At about 20 o’clock, a geological disaster of debris flow occurred in the section from Niri to Suxiong Station in chengdu-kunming railway. After receiving the emergency rescue support request, chengdu-kunming railway Project Department held an emergency meeting to study the emergency rescue plan. "I have participated in flood fighting and rescue, and I know the terrain best, and I am party member, so I must charge first!" He Junxian volunteered to undertake the rescue mission. At this time, he has been fighting for nearly half a month in the front line of flood fighting and emergency rescue.

Danger waits for no one, time is life. He Junxian had no time to think about it, so he began to organize personnel, machinery and materials overnight. After intense preparation, He Junxian and other rescue team members came to the railway station to stand by in order to rush to the disaster relief site in time.

On the eve of his departure, he couldn’t worry about his family. He specially called his wife Li Xiaoyue. "My son will be a senior in high school the day after tomorrow, so he must work hard. My mom had a meningioma operation on September 3, and I can’t go. How hard it is for you! " This slightly apologetic phone call became the last farewell between He Junxian and his wife.

On the morning of August 31, He Junxian and others who stayed up all night drove to the rescue site. Emergency rescue is to seize time. He Junxian was in a hurry and kept urging the driver to hurry up and hurry up. Suddenly, the dangerous rock on the top of the mountain tumbled, and one of the rocks with a diameter of about 20 cm smashed through the roof, unfortunately hitting He Junxian …

Chengdu-kunming railway Double Track, for which He Junxian gave his life, is a key project in the 13th Five-Year Plan for the development of the western region of China. After completion, it will greatly facilitate people to travel along the line, and play an important role in improving the railway transportation network in Sichuan Province and promoting the development of characteristic resources and industries along the line.

Cheng Kun is difficult, relying on mountains and cliffs; Cheng Kun is in danger, and falling rocks are frequent.

The construction of chengdu-kunming railway double track is not an easy task. Almost all vehicles in chengdu-kunming railway Project Department have been hit by falling rocks. After working in the project department for more than five years, whenever there is a danger, He Junxian always takes the lead and acts as the "backbone" and "reassurance" of his colleagues. "Every time there is a danger, he is always the first to rush ahead and never complains." Zhang Chunyu, the manager of the project department, recalled the dribs and drabs of working with He Junxian and couldn’t help choking.

Such a colleague is a good leader, a good colleague and a good brother, but he is full of debts to his family. In May 2013, his 70-year-old mother was hospitalized with cerebral infarction. He Junxian stayed at home for two days and hurried back to the construction site. Because of the tight schedule, the conversation time between He Junxian and his family rarely exceeded 5 minutes in 5 years. My son has been in school for more than ten years, and he has never attended a parent-teacher conference. Even if his wife had a car accident, hyperthyroidism and appendectomy, he could not go home to take care of her.

"If I am party member, I have to contribute to the party." This is a sentence that He Junxian often tells his family. There is a husband who takes the construction site as his home. Although Li Xiaoyue has some grievances, she also understands. She often educates her son and says, "Although your father doesn’t earn much money, he earns practically. Although he is ordinary, he is involved in national key projects. You must study hard and live up to your father’s ardent expectations! "

A board room and a camp bed.

During the five-year construction of chengdu-kunming railway Double Track, He Junxian devoted all his energy to the construction site, focused on solving intractable diseases and solving problems for his colleagues, and there was always an indomitable spirit in his bones.

At the beginning of this year, affected by the COVID-19 epidemic, the national economy was hit. In order to respond to the call of the country to resume work and production, and get through the southwest economic artery as soon as possible, He Junxian ended his vacation early and took the lead in returning to the project department to organize the resumption of work and production. "To get back the delayed construction period, we are confident to complete the task as scheduled!" He Junxian said.

In the depths of Yuezhishan Tunnel in chengdu-kunming railway, He Junxian led the workers with pneumatic drills, riveting their strength to drill into hard rocks. The 14,085-meter-long Yuezhishan Tunnel lies between Chengdu Plain and Daliangshan Mountain, and the tunnel passes through the mountainside, which is the key control project of the whole line. Yuezhishan Tunnel is a difficult and high-risk project in the whole line, and it is also one of the control projects in Emei-Miyi section, with harsh geological conditions, fragile ecological environment and great construction difficulties.

In order to ensure the safe progress of Yuezhishan tunnel project and facilitate the coordination and solution of construction problems at any time, He Junxian works on the spot, and a board room, a camp bed and a desk are his battlefields. He lined up with the workers to cook and follow the class. He stuck to the scene and repeatedly adjusted the process. When he was tired, he took a nap in bed and woke up and went on working. He Junxian set an example and played a leading role as a pioneer in party member, which greatly boosted the morale of colleagues around him.

In order to determine the construction plan, he is often busy until midnight. When he met the construction period of the node and the key process, he stared at the scene for hours. In the rainstorm, it was damp and cold in the board room, so he couldn’t sleep at all. He Junxian simply went into the cave to inspect. Long-term overtime and fatigue have made this Hunan man’s skin dark and his voice hoarse.

During the epidemic prevention and control period, the project department reversed the construction period, occupied enough space and time, ensured "grasping with both hands, being hard with both hands and winning with both hands", and accelerated the construction and production. In order to ensure the construction safety and speed up the project progress, He Junxian firmly grasped the "double insurance" of safe construction and optimized the construction organization and technical scheme. He combined the excavation class and the erection class into one, strengthened the scheduling and implemented the reward and punishment system, so that the lining of one board could be completed in five or six days, and it was optimized to two days.

What is deeply engraved in He Junxian’s life is not only the five-year struggle in the depths of Liangshan, but also the eight-year persistence under the vast Gobi in the Middle Tianshan Mountains. In the middle of Xinjiang, there is a mountain range that stretches thousands of miles from east to west. This is the famous Tianshan Mountain. It is this natural barrier that hinders the traffic in southern Xinjiang and northern Xinjiang. Getting through Tianshan Mountain is the only way for Xinjiang to set up a "fast track".

In April, 2007, the second line from Turpan to Korla of South Xinjiang Railway was started, and China Railway 18th Bureau Group Co., Ltd won the bid for the second line project, with a total length of 32.387 kilometers. Among them, the middle Tianshan extra-long tunnel is 22.452 kilometers long, and it is constructed by full-face hard rock tunnel boring machine, which is the longest railway tunnel in the history of railway construction in China at that time.

In order to fight the battle of Zhongtianshan Tunnel, China Railway 18th Bureau Group Co., Ltd. decided to send the best management force, scientific research personnel and construction team. As a member of the "elite troops", He Junxian arrived at the Zhongtianshan Tunnel Project Department in the first batch.

Zhongtianshan Tunnel is located in the barren hills of Gobi, with harsh natural environment, featuring high geostress, high temperature, high humidity and high pressure and rich water. The geological environment is complex and changeable, and the high water burst pressure is rare in China, rockburst and rock pushing occur from time to time. The working surface in the tunnel is extremely humid and the water quality is highly corrosive. Tunnel construction is located in temperate arid climate zone, which is dry and rainy, cold and windy in winter, and the temperature difference between day and night is large. In summer, the daytime temperature is as high as 43 degrees Celsius, and the temperature outside the cave is as low as MINUS 28 degrees Celsius in winter, so the construction environment is extremely difficult. Various construction problems, such as reverse slope drainage of long tunnels, converge, and the construction difficulty is rare in China.

China Railway 18th Bureau Group Co., Ltd. owns the "Golden" signboard of full-face hard rock tunnel boring machine. With a total length of 256 meters and a single machine cost of 360 million yuan, the roadheader is the most advanced mechanical equipment in the construction of long tunnels in the world. The monthly tunneling records of 509 meters and 551.818 meters were set in Qinling Tunnel and Taohuapu No.1 Tunnel respectively. This type of roadheader is used in the construction of Zhongtianshan Tunnel.

Most of the people involved in the construction of the Zhongtianshan tunnel are newcomers. He Junxian tilted his main technical force to the full-face hard rock tunnel boring machine through the old and the new. He improved the level of organization and management, set up driving classes, tool classes, transportation classes and other classes, and centralized the management of three previously opposing driving classes under the management of a deputy manager of the project department to strengthen process control and process connection.

Due to the extremely poor surrounding rock condition, the tunnel boring machine collapsed 1 meter when driving, and the construction workers were helpless for a while, and their morale was very low. He Junxian went to the scene to direct at 7 o’clock every morning, and stayed in the tunnel with technicians and construction team leaders every day, repeatedly observing and discussing together. This stayed for a week, and finally worked out the appropriate construction scheme and technical measures.

Once there was a rare strong rock burst in the tunnel, and stones flew about, so everyone was too scared to go in. Just after the shock wave, He Junxian was the first to rush to the scene. When everyone saw it, they rushed in regardless of the danger. The workers all said, "We really admire such a leader who takes the lead and is not afraid of safety!"

A series of measures have made the tunneling machine faster and faster, creating a record of 33.3 meters in a single day and 503 meters in a month. In the early morning of February 28, 2014, the Zhongtianshan Tunnel was double-lined. On December 28, 2014, the second line of Turpan-Korla, a southern Xinjiang railway, officially opened for freight transportation; On February 1, 2015, passenger transport was officially opened.

In the eight years of fighting in southern Xinjiang, He Junxian was the first to go and the last to go, eating and living in the first line, fighting rock burst, controlling water gushing and paying attention to safety. He was busy in the Gobi desert day and night, making great contributions to the opening operation of the second line from Turpan to Korla, and accumulated successful experience for the safe construction of the extra-long railway tunnel of China Railway 18th Bureau Group Co., Ltd.

A small blackboard and a marker.

Long-term frontline construction experience has enabled He Junxian to accumulate rich experience. He is generous, willing to "mentor", and often teaches the "Construction Collection" accumulated by his years of research to front-line employees and technicians without reservation.

He Junxian is nicknamed "Little Blackboard". People who have never seen him think that he is black and thin. In fact, the "Little Blackboard" is not black, but he is used to giving lessons to front-line employees on the blackboard with markers, and the requirements are strict, so he has this nickname.

In chengdu-kunming railway Project Department, no matter at the entrance of staff dormitory or canteen, there is a small blackboard in every place where He Junxian stayed.

With the advancement of the chengdu-kunming railway project, various tasks are getting busier and busier. In order to avoid mistakes and further improve everyone’s awareness of work safety, He Junxian asked all work areas and departments to sort out their work priorities and work plans in time every day and write them on the blackboard to remind everyone of the direction of work that day. According to the overall arrangement of the construction period, let everyone set a small goal every day and work together to complete the production task, so as to knock on the blackboard, draw the key points and ensure the performance.

"Although the blackboard is small, it is really useful!" Liu Wenyou, secretary of the Party Working Committee of chengdu-kunming railway Project Department of China Railway 18th Bureau Group Co., Ltd., pointed to the work focus written by He Junxian on a small blackboard.

With a marker, He Junxian can describe the safety construction drawing of the whole tunnel; Through a small blackboard, he can give a rich special course on tunnel safety construction to frontline construction workers.

Since the construction of the chengdu-kunming railway project started, He Junxian has visited Teke Tunnel, Yibu Double-track Bridge and other worksites for many times to give lectures to workers, and often gathered the first-line technicians at the entrance of the cave for meetings to teach the key points of safety construction technology through small blackboards.

"Speaking of tunnel construction technology, he is always a few treasures, with clear ideas and easy-to-understand language. We have benefited a lot from listening to it and greatly improved the construction progress! " A construction team leader recalled.

For a period of time, the progress of Yuezhishan tunnel project could not go up, and He Junxian saw it in his eyes and was anxious. Without waiting for the workers to get off work, he took the small blackboard directly to the tunnel to explain. Sometimes, even if it is a short break after lunch, he will take the small blackboard, draw a schematic diagram, and explain the safety construction problems that need to be paid attention to in each process, and explain how to connect the processes more effectively.

Under the impetus of He Junxian, the chengdu-kunming railway project ensured the construction progress and safety at the same time by implementing the training disclosure of the tunnel "micro-step" technology, standardizing the working standards and strengthening the safety control of the process.

For some time, the Yuezhishan tunnel project always failed to complete the established workload, which affected the progress of the project. His small blackboard has played a role again, and the dormitory area, canteen and conference room have all become his temporary classes.

After the actual investigation, He Junxian demanded the full implementation of smooth blasting. Draw a simple schematic diagram through the small blackboard to tell everyone how to arrange the surrounding blastholes, how to control the charge, what different countermeasures are needed for different surrounding rocks, and so on. The simple explanation made everyone feel overwhelmed, and the construction process connection and process control level of the project tunnel were improved, and the Yibu Tunnel and Maqu Tunnel were connected safely one after another.

With the help of He Junxian’s on-site guidance, the double-side heading method was used to construct the large-span section of the third line of the Teke Tunnel, which successfully crossed the bad geology and faults such as limestone, sandstone and karst, and ensured the safety and quality of the large-section tunnel construction. In the construction of No.1 and No.2 transverse tunnels in Teke Tunnel, through continuous optimization and improvement of drilling and charging procedures, smooth blasting has achieved good results, and the residual eye rate is over 90%, which has been praised by many tunnel experts.

In recent years, the small blackboard seems to be full of magic for people in chengdu-kunming railway Project Department. "This is a kind of thinking. I feel something is missing when I don’t see the small blackboard one day. Although He Junxian left, it is gratifying that his little blackboard has stayed, and so has the good tradition. " Zhang Chunyu, manager of chengdu-kunming railway Project Department, said.

Now, chengdu-kunming railway Project Department has equipped small blackboards for every department and field team. The illustrated content on the blackboard has also become a window for the project department to improve its style and efficiency.

The small blackboard "fought side by side" with everyone, forming a beautiful landscape, and also became the best "memorial" for He Junxian by all members of chengdu-kunming railway Project Department.

Revealing the service struggle when the US Department of Defense was founded

????The Pentagon, located in Arlington, southwest of Washington, D.C., is the headquarters of the United States Department of Defense, the highest military command organ in the United States, with geographical coordinates of 38 52 ′ 15.00 ″ n and 77 03 ′ 21.00 ″ w.. Seen from the air, the building is pentagonal, hence the name "Pentagon".

????Original title: The Department of Defense born in the "Air and Sea War"-The little-known inside story of the struggle when the US Department of Defense was founded

????On August 10th, 2009, the US Department of Defense held a grand celebration ceremony to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the official establishment of the Department of Defense. However, what is little known is that the establishment of the US Department of Defense 60 years ago was the product of struggle and compromise among the three major services of the US military, and one of the events called "Admiral Rebellion" became the direct "fuse" for the birth of the US Department of Defense. Then, in the United States, which flaunts democracy and freedom and pursues the system of "civilian leading", why did the admiral, as an important minister in the army "rebel"? Why is the birth of the Ministry of National Defense linked to this incident? Let’s break through the fog of history and appreciate the thrilling infighting within the US military 60 years ago.

????The Prelude of Conflict —— The National Security Law of 1947

????After World War II, with the rapid improvement of American military strength and international status, the organizational form of the US military, which used to focus on the two independent departments of the sea and land, obviously could not meet the needs of the development of the situation, so a new round of military institutional reform is imperative. In an article entitled "Our armed forces must be unified", Truman once wrote with emotion when talking about the experience and lessons of World War II, "The military institutions we hastily pieced together have always been the cause of disasters … For the sake of national security, a more solid foundation must be established. The first step is obviously to unify the army and navy, so that all our defensive and offensive forces are under the leadership of an institution and an authoritative and responsible headquarters. " Under this background, it has become the top priority of the US military’s military reform work to concentrate on solving the deep-rooted contradictions between Lu Haijun, solving the repetitive construction problems in national defense construction, and establishing a unified military organization to effectively integrate the two major military departments of the sea and land.

????In October, 1945, a motion led by the army with the main content of establishing a unified military organization was submitted to the National Assembly, and the focus of the struggle was mainly on the ownership of the Marine Corps and the Naval Air Force. However, judging from the comparison of the forces of the three major services of the US military at that time, the Army and the Air Force played a decisive role in World War II, so they also mastered the "right to speak" in the new round of national defense institutional reform. The army, headed by Marshall and Eisenhower, spared no effort to publicize the benefits of the alliance, hoping to merge the Marine Corps into the army and form its own amphibious combat force to further strengthen its leading position in the national defense institutions. At the same time, after the baptism of the two world wars, especially in the course of the war against Japan, the Army Air Force (the predecessor of the Air Force), which was "resident" in the army, has been transformed into a veritable "third service" step by step. Therefore, after the war, fanatical air force elements advocated the establishment of an independent air force everywhere, demanding that the aircraft of the army and navy be unified under the command of the Air Force. Based on the affection of "the same ancestry and the same origin", the Army and the Army Air Force reached a tacit agreement on the issue of dividing up the navy’s "heritage", that is, acquiring the Marine Corps and the Naval Air Force. Therefore, a large number of senior army generals, such as Eisenhower, all held a positive attitude towards the independence of the Air Force. Although the navy also played an important role in the Pacific War, the humiliation of Pearl Harbor incident, the nuclear monopoly advantage of the United States after the war and the serious lack of maritime strategic threats,Coupled with the strong pressure of "alliance" between land and air, these factors make the navy in a very embarrassing situation in the new round of national defense institutional reform. In order to publicize the benefits of air force independence and integration, and to retaliate against the numerous obstacles set by the navy on the issue of air force independence in the past, especially the persecution of Billy Mitchell, the "father of the air force", air force elements used their influence to belittle the role of the navy as much as possible everywhere. Frank Armstrong, the backbone of the Air Force, publicly demanded that the functions and functions of the navy be reduced to the level of escort, transport and honor guard, because the navy "will only have a few aircraft carriers, which will have no fighting capacity in any case … and will probably be sunk in the first battle", so "the navy will be useless except providing materials needed by the army, air force and ground forces." Karl spaatz, the first Air Force Chief of Staff, also attacked the Navy in public speeches, which made the Navy faction angry. He pointed out, "Why should we continue to keep the navy? The only reason why we keep the navy may be that many countries still keep the navy, but the Soviet Union has only a small navy, or there is no navy at all, so there is absolutely no need for us to waste money on the navy. "

????Under the dual pressure of "alliance" between land and air, although the navy is well aware of the significance and truth of unified operational command, it has to oppose it for its own interests, because the navy generals are particularly worried that the integration system and the formation of the air force will make them lose the two core arms of naval aviation and marine corps, thus damaging the overall interests of the navy. Therefore, chester nimitz, then Minister of Naval Operations, expressed strong opposition to the idea of integration. He pointed out that "practice has proved that the two departments with separate responsibilities and powers can provide different arms according to the requirements of modern warfare, so it is not only useless but also harmful to the proper division of labor and the effective use of maritime forces to merge the War Department and the Navy Department into a single department." At the congressional hearing, a large number of admirals and members of the navy expressed strong dissatisfaction with Truman’s bill, so they have not reached a consensus on the issue of integration.

????Finally, in order to calm the disputes between the various military forces, especially the dissatisfaction of the navy, Truman had to adopt a compromise plan and make necessary compromises and concessions on some key issues: first, adopt the opinions of the army and set up a unified Ministry of National Defense; Secondly, in response to the demands of air force activists, an independent air force was formed, and Lu Haijun did not keep land-based aircraft; Third, support the opinion of the navy, carrier-based aviation and marine corps will remain in the navy, and the establishment and tasks of the marine corps will remain unchanged. In this context, the US Army and Navy Ministers finally reached an agreement on the issue of unified jurisdiction. On July 26, 1947, President Truman signed the National Security Law, and established the National Security Council, the National Military Department (the predecessor of the Ministry of National Defense), the Air Force Department and the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and established a national military system composed of the Minister of National Defense, the Joint Chiefs of Staff and independent air force, army and navy departments. On September 15th, 1947, JamesVincentForrestal, a former Secretary of the Navy, took office and became the first Secretary of Defense in American history. Three days later, the US Air Force was formally established, and Stuart Semin, a leading figure who made great contributions to the independence of the Air Force, became the first air force minister. However, because the National Security Law of 1947 was established on the basis of a temporary compromise between various military services, compared with the rank and status of the Cabinet Departments of the three major military services, the National Military Department is not a Cabinet Department, but a loose alliance in name only, with only general coordination rights.In addition, with only a small number of staff, it is impossible to fully exercise the functions and powers of the commander-in-chief, and the bill does not clearly stipulate the specific tasks and division of roles of various military species. This congenital deficiency has also laid the groundwork for the outbreak of the largest dispute within the US military after the war.

????The war is rekindled-B-36 VS "Super Carrier"

????At the end of World War II, with the successful development of nuclear weapons and their decisive role in the war against Japan, the US military believed that nuclear weapons would become the "killer weapon" to determine the outcome of future wars, and strategic nuclear bombing would also become a decisive new operational mode in the future, thus making nuclear weapons and the newly formed Strategic Air Force (SAC) the priority targets of the US military’s strategic deployment and military funding. At the same time, the two major services, the air force and the sea force, have launched a new "infighting" for the dominance of the strategic air force. The focus of this struggle is mainly on the weapons development plans of the two major services: the navy’s CV-58 "United States" super aircraft carrier plan and the Air Force’s B-36 "flying arsenal" strategic bomber plan.

????With the help of their supporters, the navy and air force used their influence to attack and slander each other in some public and secret occasions. The navy, represented by Nimitz, believes that the "United States" is of great significance to the navy, because it is the first super aircraft carrier equipped by the navy after the war. This aircraft carrier has the ability to take off and land large aircraft such as strategic bombers, so it is also the navy to maintain its own survival in the nuclear age and compete with the air force for budgetary capital. The Air Force, represented by Stuart Semin and curtis lemay, believes that the US military can achieve a "cheap victory" only by launching nuclear air strikes, without having to carry out heavy casualties on the ground, and without wasting huge sums of money to build a "living coffin at sea"-an aircraft carrier with poor maneuverability and weak viability. As the world’s first strategic bomber with intercontinental long-range bombing capability, the B-36 will replace the old B-29 and B-56.

????However, because the Ministry of National Military Affairs is only a loose alliance, it is impossible to effectively stop the jealousness and infighting between the two ministries. In addition, the Truman administration greatly reduced the military budget after the war, so it is impossible for the two major R&D projects to be launched at the same time, and they can only choose one of them. Therefore, this inevitably intensifies the already tense contradiction between the two services. At first, because Forrester served as the secretary of the navy and was a typical naval faction, the navy gained the upper hand in the initial competition. The CV-58 project was successfully passed and started in Newport News on March 18, 1949. Many navy generals could not help but be complacent, but the navy was too happy. Stuart Semin, the eloquent air force minister, launched a comprehensive propaganda campaign, which gradually won the support of the press, Congress and the army. Bradley, then chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, also expressed support for the Air Force, arguing that "using the navy to carry out nuclear bombing missions will only greatly reduce the ability and suddenness of the Air Force to carry out large-scale explosive missions." Things are unpredictable. Just a few days later, the "United States" was forced to stop construction and dismount because of the fall of the Navy and the coming to power of the Air Force. Due to the opposition to the Truman administration’s policy of reducing military spending, and the constant exposure of media reports about his poor mental condition, Forrester gradually lost Truman’s trust and had to resign on March 28, and the new defense minister was replaced by Louis Johnson, an activist from the Air Force, so the navy became a "super carrier."The plan was inevitably stillborn.

????"Admiral rebelled"

????In April 1949, after the new Secretary of Defense, Louis Johnson, took office, he not only canceled the "super carrier" plan without the approval of Congress, but also repeatedly suppressed the navy’s requirements at the Joint Chiefs of Staff, drastically reduced the navy’s funds, and even canceled the navy and the Marine Corps. Johnson pointed out, "There is no reason to keep the Navy and Marine Corps, because General Bradley told me that amphibious operations have become history, and we will never do amphibious operations again, so there is no need to keep the Marine Corps. In addition, the air force can do everything that the navy can do, so there is no need to keep the navy. " A stone stirred up a thousand waves, which caused an uproar in the United States and became the fuse of the famous "Revolt of the Admirals" in American history.

????A large number of famous naval generals protested and resigned in anger, and many retired naval generals, government and business people related to the navy, and officials and people from all walks of life who lost the location of the shipyard were extremely angry at the Truman administration’s capricious policy. Admiral Daniel Garrett, headed by Major General, began to publish a series of fierce articles and speeches in the United States, attacking Johnson for belittling the navy’s national defense policy and the Air Force’s B-36 bomber plan. Garrett even published a highly inflammatory rebellion statement in an article entitled "Don’t let them sink the navy", calling Johnson an "out-and-out criminal and villain" and demanding that he immediately take the blame and step down. This has caused an uproar in the United States, causing a storm in the city and chaos in Congress, the press, the government and the military. Subsequently, the senior navy generals represented by Admiral Arthur Redford, commander of the Pacific Fleet, began to set off a bigger storm again.

????In order to go all out to attack the Air Force’s B-36 bomber plan by hook or by crook, the Navy once appointed arleigh burke to secretly set up a special office called OP-23, which was mainly responsible for making plans to win the support of the US Congress and the public. In June 1949, an anonymous document not only recorded that Denfield and other senior naval generals expressed strong dissatisfaction with Johnson’s national defense policy, but also accused the relevant officials of the Air Force Department and senior air force generals of fraud and bribery in the B-36 plan, exposing that Johnson and Symington benefited personally and politically from the owner of the aircraft manufacturer, Odlum, and believed that the Air Force had unfair competition in the bidding stage of aircraft, and received defective aircraft to make personal profits at the expense of national defense interests. This accusation makes the Air Force extremely angry, because it has done great damage to the honor of Air Force officers and the reputation of the Air Force Department. Congress launched a series of hearings to investigate the so-called "B-36 procurement fraud case". At the congressional hearing, Air Force Minister Semin Clinton and Air Force Chief of Staff arthur vandenberg refuted Radford’s point of view one by one. After investigation, Congress also thought that many accusations of the navy lacked rationality and appropriateness and were untenable. Bradley, the general of the army, also refuted the accusation of the navy, and pointed out that the naval disturbance was an "open rebellion against the civilian leadership system", and its essence was to resist the unified command and plan of the US military "in spirit and action".And "the constant quarrel in the supreme command organization is like a drop of poison dripping into wine, which makes all the sharers suffer." After an in-depth investigation, the congressional investigation report pointed out that "there is not a bit, even a little bit of evidence to prove the allegations of premeditated, fraudulent, bribery, bullying or favoritism in the procurement of B-36 bombers" and proved that the "documents" provided by the navy were forged, and the initiator behind it was Colonel John G. Grommelin, deputy director of the OP-23 office. The report also pointed out that "the Ministry of National Defense has made great efforts to pursue the’ unification’ of the services, and the pace is too fast." Moreover, in this struggle, "the navy that refused the’ marriage’ of the services, the army that was too proud of itself, and the somewhat unruly air force made the Committee not find any’ Puritans’ in the Ministry of National Defense who fully supported reunification and had pure motives."

????In the end, this "air-sea war" ended with the navy’s breach of trust in the world and the air force’s victory: the B-36 plan continued, but the navy’s "super carrier" plan was forced to dismount, and an article in Time magazine of the United States also dubbed the ups and downs of the service struggle within the US military as the "Admiral Rebellion" incident. The "Admiral Rebellion" incident not only shocked the whole United States, but also made the top officials of the United States realize the importance of strengthening the authority of the Ministry of National Defense. In this context, the US Congress passed the amendment to the National Security Law on August 10th, 1949, which renamed the loosely structured "National Military Department" as the "Ministry of National Defense", upgraded it to the Cabinet Department, and further strengthened the power of the Minister of National Defense, reducing the ranks of the three major military departments of land, sea and air from the Cabinet Department to the directly affiliated department of the Ministry of National Defense, and the Minister of Military Services is no longer a member of the National Security Council and the Cabinet. In addition, in order to limit the competition between services, the post of Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff was established with the approval of Congress. As the chief military adviser to the President and the Secretary of Defense, it was held by senior military generals, which also laid the foundation for the modern defense commander system in the United States.

????Silent ending

????Finally, the navy became a complete loser in this struggle: Navy Minister Sullivan resigned; Naval Operations Minister Denfeld was forced to "retire early"; Garrett was tried by a military court, which completely ruined his future; Truman also chose the mediocre "good guy" Matthews and the more obedient forrest sherman as the secretary of the navy and the minister of operations respectively, regardless of the strong opposition of the navy generals. Forester, the former secretary of defense who was born as the secretary of the navy, also committed suicide because of the mental disorder caused by the intensified service struggle. Although the personal endings of these senior naval officers were not very good, they were regarded as heroes by the navy because they sacrificed their lives and future to safeguard the survival and honor of the navy in this struggle. After the "Super Carrier" plan died, the US Congress decided to build a smaller aircraft carrier for the navy in order to appease the navy’s mood, and this aircraft carrier was named "Forrester". In addition, although the "Admiral Rebellion" incident ended in the failure of the navy, the subsequent "counterattack" by the Marine Corps also made the navy regain some face. In August 1950, under the strong pressure of the navy faction in Congress, the Truman administration was finally forced to agree to set up a representative of the Marine Corps in the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Although the Marine Corps is still under the jurisdiction of the Navy, it has a place in the Joint Chiefs of Staff, so it has become the fourth largest service on an equal footing with the army, navy and air force.

????At the same time, another protagonist in the "naval rebellion", Defense Minister Johnson of the Air Force faction, also suffered a bad result because of his arrogant and tough treatment of the navy. After the "Admiral Rebellion" incident, Truman, as Johnson’s immediate superior, was also humiliated in Congress, government and army, so he gradually lost his trust in Johnson. He wrote in his private diary, "Everything that happened made me begin to believe that Potomac fanaticism and a morbid state have made Louis show a mental disorder and selfish arrogance trying to drive the whole government, because he offended everyone in the cabinet … and never missed every opportunity to speak ill of people around me." Secretary of State Acheson also said in his memoirs that Johnson’s behavior was "very hateful, and it was not enough to just swear." Bradley hit the nail on the head and pointed out that "Truman inadvertently appointed a mental patient to replace another mental patient." Because Johnson suppressed the navy too hard, the navy did not have enough ships to carry out the task of sea blockade in the subsequent Korean War. A year later, in August 1950, Truman dismissed Johnson and appointed george marshall, who was low-key, well-balanced and highly respected in the military, as the new Secretary of Defense. At this point, the "Admiral Rebellion" incident, which caused a lot of trouble in the city, finally came to an end.

Instead of smoking cigarette butts, I changed to green leaves, and the "smoking expression" commonly used in mobile phones has changed.

  BEIJING, Beijing, November 8 (Qiu Yu) Attentive netizens may have noticed that the "smoking expression" in Tencent QQ on the mobile phone has changed recently.

  What used to be a little man in a hat with a cigarette butt in his mouth, representing the expression of "leisure", has now become a green leaf in his mouth.

  Social platforms have removed "smoking expressions"

  Zhongxin. com learned from Beijing Tobacco Control Association that many tobacco control organizations such as Beijing Tobacco Control Association had previously sent a letter to Tencent, hoping to remove the "smoking expression".

  At present, Tencent QQ on the mobile phone has changed, and WeChat and Tencent QQ on the computer still retain their original expressions. In this regard, Zhongxin.com asked Tencent, and the other party has not responded yet.

  "We asked Tencent that they need to be coordinated by the technical department to change the emoji, and there is a certain process and it is very strict." Zhang Jianshu, president of Beijing Tobacco Control Association, said.

  In fact, another social platform — — Sina Weibo took relevant actions several months ago.

  In September this year, after receiving a letter from Beijing Tobacco Control Association, Sina Weibo gradually took off the smoking expression code-named "Cool" in its own expression pack, and since then, "smoking expression" has become history on PC and mobile phone clients in Weibo.

  "The use of smoking expressions is large, which is very popular among netizens, especially young netizens." Zhang Jianshu said that in the cyberspace where teenagers are very active, using words such as "cool, carefree" to describe smoking expressions has a certain degree of inducement to them.

  Zhang Jianshu said that it is definitely not enough to only remove the "smoking expression" in Tencent QQ on the mobile phone, because the number of users of WeChat is also very large. I hope that WeChat and Tencent QQ on the computer can also be removed as soon as possible.

  Wechat can report illegal smoking behavior

  Up to now, many cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Guangzhou and Hangzhou have formulated local tobacco control laws, and Beijing and Shanghai have clearly stipulated that smoking is prohibited in indoor public places, indoor workplaces and public transport.

  Using the mobile Internet, it is easier to supervise illegal smoking.

  The reporter noticed that the "tobacco control complaint" in WeChat "City Service" can report illegal smoking behavior, and the complainant needs to fill in the contents of the complained unit, place and illegal behavior in detail.

  Zhang Jianshu said that taking Beijing as an example, through the above channels, there are nearly 1,000 complaints every month. After receiving complaints, tobacco control volunteers will go to dissuade or help with rectification. (End)

120 million yuan involved! Shanghai police cracked a case of super-large counterfeit Nike brand sports shoes

  Xinhua News Agency, Shanghai, November 26th (Reporter Lan Tianming) The reporter learned from the Shanghai Public Security Bureau on the 26th that the Shanghai public security organ recently successfully cracked a case of counterfeiting the registered trademark of Nike brand sports shoes, and the whole chain smashed the criminal industries such as plate making, production and sales, arrested 15 criminal suspects headed by Tian, and seized more than 60,000 pairs of counterfeit brand sports shoes, more than 100,000 pairs of semi-finished products and more than 500 sets of counterfeit equipment, involving a total amount of more than 120 million yuan.

  It is reported that Yangpu Branch of Shanghai Public Security Bureau has set up a task force to carry out investigation since July this year. The police quickly arrested several criminal gangs selling counterfeit Nike brand sports shoes. These gangs buy a lot of goods from a fake factory in Putian, Fujian, and then wholesale them to Wechat business and online merchants for external retail.

  The task force followed the line and locked the man Tian, who was suspected of committing a major crime, in Putian, Fujian. On November 6, the task force successively carried out arrests in the residential area where Tian lived and the fake factory, arrested 15 criminal suspects headed by Tian, seized more than 160,000 pairs of fake shoes of finished and semi-finished products, seized all production lines and fake equipment, and destroyed the fake factory in one fell swoop.

  After investigation, since January, 2019, Tianmou began to produce counterfeit brand sports shoes according to the styles required by online shopping platform vendors or Wechat business, and also mass-produced limited edition, commemorative money and even shoes that the brand didn’t have at all. Tianmou also arranged for design and production and branded them.

  These fake sports shoes are sold to the whole country through online stores or Wechat business platforms after wholesale by middlemen. In order to deceive consumers and avoid regulatory attacks, sellers often give low prices ranging from 20% to 50% off genuine products under the guise of internal purchase, tail orders and broken codes, and the prices range from several hundred yuan to nearly 1,000 yuan. In fact, the counterfeiting cost of each pair of shoes is only from 50 yuan to 80 yuan.

  At present, 15 suspects such as Tian have been criminally detained by Yangpu police according to law, and the case is under further investigation.

Did the ancients have "996"? "247" is the norm, and you will get a board if you are late.

The original team invited the author Chao Wenshe.

"Chao Wen She" (formerly "We Love History") is the headline signing group media.

In today’s Internet enterprises, "996" seems to have become a normal state, with employees of both large factories and small enterprises deeply disgusted with it, who go to work at 9: 00 a.m. and get off work at 9: 00 p.m. and work six days a week.

Then, in ancient times, was there such an overtime culture?

First of all, the concept of going to work in ancient times is not necessary in modern times. In ancient times, it was an agricultural society. Generally speaking, only officials, officials, servants and craftsmen working in the government had classes. In other words, if you are an ordinary citizen, you don’t have to consider going to work at all.

business hours

In the Zhou dynasty, officials needed to go to work according to the time when the rooster crowed. Once they heard the rooster crowed, they would arrive at the court.

According to historical records, "the cock crows, and the court is full."

In the pre-Qin period, the crow was the alarm clock of officials, but this time was not very fixed. Therefore, after that, the working time was generally set as Maoshi, that is, from 5 am to 7 am.

According to the Ming Dynasty, you should sign in at Mao’s time and sign out at You’s time, in other words, you should sign in between 5-7 in the morning and sign out between 5-7 in the evening. If you go to work at 5 o’clock and get off work at 5 o’clock, the working time in a day is 12 hours.

During the Hongwu period, Zhu Yuanzhang once stipulated that officials had only one day off every month, which was the fifth day of each month. It is true that the 996 "Fu Bao" is more humane than the working system during the Hongwu period.

Generally speaking, the treatment of ancient scholars and officials was quite good. As the saying goes, learning to be excellent is an official. Although the 12-hour working system is a bit harsh, it is still much better than those servants.

In the feudal autocratic dynasty, servants’ status was very low. They not only needed to go to work on time, but also had long working hours. Fang Bao, a writer in Qing Dynasty, once recalled one of his handmaids, and said, "It’s normal for chickens to crow at night."

The time of the four drums is about 2 am, which means that the maid goes to bed at 2 am and gets up at 6 am, and only rests for 4 hours a day. In addition, this handmaid has no rest day, and this work system can even be understood as "247". The handmaid died at the age of 17 because she worked too long and didn’t have enough rest.

Although the modern 996 working system is somewhat inappropriate, it is still humanized compared with the servants of the Qing Dynasty. Therefore, friends who want to cross must understand the working hours of that era, otherwise, they may suffer a big loss.

On the way to work

In modern society, although going to work is a very unpleasant thing, commuting is not very complicated. We have subways, buses, cars and electric cars, which are far away. We can choose public transportation, which is closer, and we can choose to travel by bike.

For ancient officials, on the way to work, it is easy to have accidents. For high-ranking officials in the imperial court, there are usually carriages or guards when the court is in court, and the safety can still be guaranteed, but those ordinary officials can only walk.

Why is walking prone to accidents? The main reason is that when the court was in power, it was still dark. Those high-ranking officials in the imperial court had the privilege to light lamps, but ordinary officials did not have this right.

Before the apocalypse of the Ming Dynasty, there were street lamps in the Forbidden City, and court officials could use the light of the street lamps when they went to court. But when Wei Zhongxian was in power, the street lamps were cancelled. Not only were there no street lamps, but fireworks were also prohibited.

According to historical records, "On the evening of May, everyone goes in secretly, and when they meet, they can’t distinguish it without looking at it."

As a result, there is such a scene. In the early hours of the morning, officials are on the road in a daze. On the road, even if they meet their colleagues, they can’t see them. Sometimes, they will bump into a black eye.

During Wei Zhongxian’s reign, there was an official whose home was far away. One day, when he got up late, he hurried to the hall in a hurry. Unfortunately, because there was no street lamp and the road was slippery, one of them accidentally fell into the river and died!

In the Qing dynasty, there were also laws prohibiting lights, so how should officials go to work? It is true that it is too dangerous to go to work in the dark, so officials have an idea, and that is to borrow the light.

The princes, military ministers and other high-ranking officials in the Qing Dynasty had the privilege of lighting lamps. Therefore, ordinary officials would wait for the procession of these high-ranking officials along the road. When the procession arrived, just like the bus in Yanjiao, Beijing in modern times, everyone flocked to keep up with the procession and then went to court smoothly. In order to prevent falling into ditches and rivers, it is the best way to travel by light.

Late punishment

In modern society, being late is the boss’s worst aversion. If he is much late, he may even be fined. In the ranks of ancient officials, being late is not a trivial matter. Not only will you be fined, but you may also get a board.

In "A Brief Discussion on the Law of the Tang Dynasty", there is a rule that "officials don’t attend without reason", the content of which is how to punish those officials who are late. For example, if an official fails to come for one day, his punishment will be 20 small boards. If he is absent for three days, the crime will be aggravated. If he is absent for 25 days, he will be hit with 100 big boards. If he is absent for 35 days, he will be sentenced to one year in prison. If you work in a border town, you will often be late, and the punishment will be heavier.

Zhao Mengfu, a great painter in the Yuan Dynasty, used to be a doctor of the Ministry of War. At that time, the prime minister was disgusted with the lateness of officials, so he was very strict about attendance. Once, when Zhao Mengfu was late, he was caught by the judge at that time. The judge was already disdainful of the Han people. When he saw Zhao Mengfu late, he pulled him down and beat the board.

Spanking and imprisonment are the penalties for being late. In fact, although the punishment is a bit heavy, it is not too much. After all, as a national public official, he has a great responsibility, and being late is certainly not appropriate.

In addition to spanking and imprisonment, fines are also important. During the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, officials who were late for no reason would be fined a quarter’s salary, in other words, three months’ salary would be lost if they were late once. In Tang Suzong, officials who were late would be fined one month’s salary.

Officials in the Song Dynasty were generally the best in all dynasties, and the government’s management of officials was relatively loose, but there were also related penalties for being late.

During Song Renzong’s reign, Zhang Yi, the right-hand patrol envoy, reported many officials’ being late for work, leaving early and being absent for no reason. Although Song Renzong had a good temper, he was furious when he heard this. Song Renzong immediately ordered that the officials who were absent without reason should be examined, and those who were found to be true should be dismissed. In other words, even in the relaxed Northern Song Dynasty, being late is not a joke.

To sum up, in ancient times, the requirements for going to work were quite harsh. Officials not only got up earlier than chickens, but also had to take risks to go to work in the dark. If they were late, they would beat the board, or even lose their posts and even go to jail. It can be seen that working in ancient times, especially for ordinary officials, was by no means a pleasant thing. Compared with the ancients, 996 may really be a "blessing"!
