this the pure story
The really soldiers, I mean those who had orders to kill anyone were not a lot, maybe one battalion. But they were all veteran soldiers who were professionals in obeying orders and kill any enemy without blinking their eyes.
Their job was to smash into tiananmen square as quickly as possible and dash out of it quickly after that. Using another division to occupy and hold the positions and stabilize the situation. The first one task was completed by a group of selected elite soldiers from infantry division 27 and second one was done by a couple battalions of division 38.
Apparently, west Chang An Ave. was the strategic route because the wider road condition and again plenty of military facilities and camps were close by. On the other hand, east Chang An Ave. is more troublesome with narrow road, unfaithful army divisions and foreigners’ compounds.
It was really easy for the soldiers until they reached Fuxingmen, when fearless people began fighting the armed vehicle with brick, bottles and their bodies. So, they stopped not by real weapon but by the brave people who believed their only weapon were their bodies. If you think they used buses did that, I think you are wrong.
At this moment, the only way to march to the destination was by foot soldiers. There was where gulifen was chased by a couple of soldiers who can shoot very well. She was not from Beijing, therefore, she did not those couple of hu tong were dead end.
There were lots of stories afterwards. It will take days to write. All I know is the next day, the helicopter hovering entire day from the place.
Anyway, it was a clear day next day and a little bit of warm. When most of the Beijingers woke up, what they found out was armed soldiers were in every possible important location. Snipers on top of the building and once in a while, you will find one or two corpses on the street. You heard gun shot here and there. You will see suspicious eyes looking at you. Man, the heart is heavy. You know your life is down.
My guess is those soldiers really killed were treated well after that and then spread to new posts quickly but far in-between, which means they can hardly get-together in their life times. Then, once a while, there was one or two accidents or bad luck sort of thing. If you count the heads today, most of them are either dead or as you can image sacrifice their life to our country.
And maybe, this is why I want to stay in Canada forever. One day I will tell my kids life can be so much full of feeling of betrayal, twisted , hate, terror and discomfortable when you were only 18 and full of beautiful dreams. But I feel so lucky that I still have a chance to live in this peaceful country and knowing that my kids will never suffer the nightmare haunting me over years.
Let’s the soul of my classmate Gulifen prevail.
