In the face of danger, he was ordered not to disgrace his mission.


On February 7, 2020, the first affiliated hospital of Nanchang University Xianghu Branch 1# inpatient building 6-16 floor ward full delivery, 1 month ahead of the planned construction period, with the fastest speed to provide 897 "life beds", for Jiangxi Province epidemic prevention and control to hand in a satisfactory answer. At this moment, Hong Wentao, head of the commando team for the rush to build the Xianghu Branch of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University of Jiangxi Construction Engineering, was relieved and showed a gratified smile on his face.
 
Hong Wentao, 32 years old this year, is the deputy director of the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Department and the deputy director of the Armed Forces Department of Jiangxi Construction Engineering Second Construction Co., Ltd. During the Spring Festival, he received an emergency notice that the company leaders asked him to form a commando team to go to the project site of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University to carry out the construction task. In order to combat the new coronary pneumonia epidemic, in accordance with the provincial government prevention and control work deployment, Nanchang University First Affiliated Hospital Xianghu New Town Branch as a provincial designated hospital for the treatment of patients, 1# inpatient building needs to be put into operation in advance. The group immediately issued an order to the second construction company to ensure the completion of the task regardless of cost and cost. However, affected by the epidemic, at that time, all localities had "closed villages" and "closed roads", and it was difficult for construction personnel to enter the site, and the situation was urgent! The company made a decisive decision and transferred cadres to set up a project to rush to build a commando team, with Hong Wentao as the team leader.
 
At that time, Hong Wentao's lover had already given birth to a second child, and her 5-year-old daughter needed to be taken care of. In addition, the community where she lived had just diagnosed a case of new coronary pneumonia, and she had fully implemented closed management. But he knows that the prevention and control of the epidemic is a matter of life and death. This is a major political task. The interests of the party and the people are above all else. As a member of the Communist Party, he must stand up and take responsibility when the organization needs it. As a result, he entrusted his family's affairs to his mother, and he quickly pulled up a commando team in the unit. Under his inspiration, 21 cadres and workers, mainly young people, volunteered to take part in the war.
 
The commandos rallied to the hospital site. Everyone is committed to the intense rush construction task with the belief that "delivery one minute in advance can treat patients one minute in advance. Time is tight and the task is heavy. This is a tough battle without any mistakes! No number of lights are watching them eagerly. Hong Wentao is a soldier and does things vigorously. At the beginning of taking office, he has a heart. Since he trusts him in the organization, he must be a good commando commander and give full play to the vanguard and exemplary role of Communist Party members., Unite and lead all commandos to overcome difficulties and resolutely complete the task. Among the commandos, there were 9 party members and 5 party activists. Before the battle, he organized everyone to face the party flag and take an oath: In the face of difficulties, party members go first!
 
Iron must be hard on its own. Hong Wentao first set a good example, not afraid of hardship, charge ahead. At that time, the hospital was already treating patients with new coronary pneumonia, and he had concerns at one point, but he soon made up his mind to go to war. "At this time, I must stand up, and the team members responded to the call to sign up enthusiastically. I am very moved. I am a party member. I must stand up and rush forward first in order to bring more people together, unite and organize!" The main task of the commando is to complete the laying of all cables in the main building on the 1st to 17th floors and the handling of sanitary ware and lamps. The working environment is poor, the conditions are difficult, the site is bumpy and muddy; some areas have no lighting equipment, the construction site is large, and the personnel are scattered, so it is difficult to find them. Some areas are piled up with sundries and cannot pass through. Cables can only be towed one by one. Handling cables is heavy physical work. The largest cable is as thick as a bowl, with a length of more than 300 meters and a weight, the mask was soaked again and again. At the end of the day, everyone had a sore back and their legs couldn't open. At a critical juncture, Hong Wentao was the backbone. He faced the difficulties and constantly cheered everyone. Under his leadership, everyone twisted into a rope. One day, two days, three days, gritted his teeth and persisted, and the assault mission progressed smoothly.
 
In order to improve work efficiency, Hong Wentao repeatedly communicated with the project, carefully planned the daily workload, and implemented it in groups. At the same time, pay close attention to the progress every day, and coordinate and deal with problems in time. After the completion of the task on that day, he was always the last to leave, take the initiative to dock with the project department and arrange the work for the next day. He knows that the completion of the assault mission depends on team combat, and it is very important for every member to maintain good health and abundant physical strength. He took the trouble to link with the relevant departments and project departments of the company to conscientiously implement the protective measures and logistics support work of the team members. In the cold basement, the hot and cold working state is particularly easy to catch a cold. He is very worried about everyone's health and takes the initiative to ask and pay attention to the physical condition of the team members after work every day.
 
In those days, most of Hong Wentao and his team members were so simple that they tried to live near the construction site, and even spent the night in their own cars. First, it saves more time to rush about on the road and rush for work. The second is the need for isolation and responsibility to the family. During the extraordinary period, the quality of food on the construction site is also difficult to guarantee. Hong Wentao can't eat well and sleep well, and his wife and children at home make him worry about him, but what worries him most is the assault mission. There is not much time left, so he must race against time. Can you hand over the epidemic prevention ward on time, but it is related to the safety of the patient's life! The epidemic is an order, prevention and control is a responsibility, and the oath of joining the party echoes in my ears. Now that the critical time has come, he cannot love his children and cannot drop the chain. He must use his best performance to perfectly interpret his original intention and mission, so he has to put aside the debt to his family for the time being and devote himself to the "epidemic" battle. If he does not win completely, he will never withdraw. In a letter to his wife and children, he said: this is the responsibility of being a member of the staff of state-owned enterprises. I can't let you down. I can only give up my small family for everyone. I believe you understand me and support me. When the day of victory, I can proudly tell the children that "Mom and Dad have contributed to the victory of the epidemic." I want to set an example for my children. Only when there is a country can there be a home!
 
The sea is flowing, and only then does a hero show his true colors. With the belief of winning, Hong Wentao and his team members worked hard to overcome all difficulties and finally successfully completed the assault mission. Hong Wentao's deeds were published in the Jiangxi Morning Post's column on the story of people fighting the epidemic, and his "war on the epidemic" letter touched many people.
