Winning Strategy | Episode 5 "The Mighty East Wind"

In 2015, the Rocket Force transformed from "troops" to "army"

Continuously forging

Ready to fight at any time, launching on time, and effectively destroying

Core capabilities

This Dongfeng Longjian that can cross the globe

Is a heavy weapon of strategic deterrence

Is the cornerstone of national security

They are willing to be backups

Supporting the "fail-safe" of major national equipment

Launch assessment site

Main frame ignites and ascends

Backup operator Qiu Guoxu

Leads the operators to silently withdraw

Bowstring pulled tight and then released

Passion cools silently

Eastern Theater Command's realistic joint training around Taiwan Island

Qiu Guoxu and his comrades serve as backups

After more than twenty years

Once again, missiles are launched

All hit precisely

In Qiu Guoxu's heart

There is no distinction between main and backup

As long as there is an order, they can launch on time

This is the meaning of the existence of the launch operator

Dare to challenge the boundaries of equipment

They use scientific research to support the Dongfeng Longjian

Realistic assessment with impromptu additional tasks

The missile battery has been activated

But must urgently maneuver to a new location

Continue to execute combat launch

The longer it remains powered

The higher the safety risk

Can this missile actually be fired?

Research expert He Huafeng

Once on the front line of testing

Assessing risks and validating plans

He led the verification

Providing scientific support for innovative combat methods for the troops

Transforming scientific evidence from the laboratory

Into more flexible combat methods for the troops

And quicker deployments

Allowing strategic heavy weapons to truly achieve breakthrough victory

He Huafeng said

Being able to make a substantial contribution to equipment capability

Is the greatest comfort for a researcher

The "physician" of missiles hidden in the deep mountains

Guarding the fail-safe bottom line

The technical position deep in the mountains

Is the last checkpoint before the missiles head to the battlefield

Testing operator Miao Yazhou and his comrades

Manually tightening every screw

Precisely controlling the torque to the slightest degree

Enduring physical exhaustion

Facing pressure where even a slight mistake cannot be tolerated

Checking item by item, testing the entire process

All risks and faults

Must be cleared before leaving the warehouse

The "small world, big pattern" written on the stone bench

Is their unique romance

Treating each missile

As carefully as raising a child

Sending it to fulfill its mission

Extreme "battle damage"

A thirty-year veteran achieving the realm of "man and sword as one"

In a drill

The blue team launched a precise attack

All support routes were cut off

Only he and a guard operator "survived" at the launch pad

The scheduled launch time cannot be delayed by even a second

This predicament

He must break through

Giving himself commands

Verifying item by item

Completing the entire process

When the ignition command is given

The missile shoots straight into the sky

This is the realm of "man and sword as one" for the launch operator

And also the confidence of victory honed to perfection

In 2025, after serving for 30 years, Xue Wei

Proactively submitted an application for extended service

"Those who fear death should not be cruise soldiers

Those who seek comfort should not be cruise personnel

Those who do not want to fight should not enter the cruise gate"

As long as the troops need

He will always be in position

He pushes the troops into a predicament

Behind him stands the billions of Chinese people

On the training ground

Luo Tingrong is known as a "tough character"

If the drill has no difficulty and the training has no intensity

How can there be a chance of victory on the battlefield?

The deeper the soldiers "hate" him

The closer they are to real combat

In the Rocket Force Military History Museum

The national flag brought back from the Chinese Embassy in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia

Is quietly displayed

The peace of a great nation

Can never rely on the kindness of others

To maintain tranquility

One must first forge oneself into

An unbreakable steel backbone

From a thunderous roar in the depths of the desert

To today's mighty array of Dongfeng

This unit has always

Hidden in the deep mountains, concealed in the Gobi

Holding the power of thunder

Behind them are countless "audiences"

That is the billions of people of China
