The hostel for family members of the base is right on the beach. Due to the large number of ships and troops, the guest house is always full all year round, especially in winter, when it is even more tense. During the slack season in winter, wives and children from rural areas came to visit relatives at this time, so family members had to line up in advance to stay at the guest house. Some came, but could not move in, so they had to live in Datongpu first. In those days, unlike now, the streets were full of hotels, restaurants, and family hotels.

He took the telegram and went to get a number, but a single room would not be available until ten days later. So I took my sister-in-law to the guest house and arranged for the mother and son to stay in a room full of Datongbu. Then I rode my bicycle back to the dock.

Military train escort, this is a bit mysterious. The train driver's emergency braking actually changed a person's fate. It was the late 1960s, and a military train was running on the Beijing-Guangzhou Railway. Strictly speaking, only the middle carriage of this military train contained military supplies, and the remaining carriages carried only wood and coal. At that time, the country was in the most chaotic period of ten years of "turmoil". Armed fighting was taking place in many places across the country. The People's Liberation Army followed the order "Don't fight back when beaten, and don't retaliate when scolded." As a result, many field troops had their guns stolen by the rebels. This carriage was filled with military charts. In order to prevent accidents, the relevant navy department hung the carriage in the middle of a truck and sent chart corrector, soldier Li Xiwu and another soldier as escorts to escort these military charts from Tianjin to the South China Sea Fleet.
