Unreal leaders and real love

War, what supports people? Countless casualties, ruthless bullets, and near-suicide-like attacks, life and death seem to be on the line, some people say it is ism.

However, I always believed that how many of those warriors understood such an abstract thing. Maybe Danilov understands, he is a professional, he can understand those doctrines, but like Vasily, he may not understand the so-called doctrines of Stalin at all. More often, they may just respond to the national call for such a pure and beautiful purpose. Like Vasily, he was just a family from a hunter who was drafted into the army. They may have a hard time understanding those so-called communism.

When the war showed its cruelty, when the soldiers realized that it might be death, they began to run, but they were also shot by bullets from their companions. When the enemy's artillery fire was in front of them, the bullets of their own people were behind them. Before and after death, perhaps these doctrines are no longer important, and the lives of soldiers are so humble. At this time, the entire Soviet army was in a downturn, and these so-called doctrines could no longer let the soldiers die willingly. At this time, Vasily was discovered by a Bole. Perhaps, there are thousands of people in the entire Soviet army who are excellent shooters like Vasily. Maybe, there are better people than him, but Vasily just happened to meet Danilov. This person who is well versed in hype, he understands that war is also inseparable from hype. What soldiers need is no longer abstract doctrine, but a living example. Doctrine is empty, man is real, and he happened to discover Vasily. He immediately made Vasily a hero, and war needs heroes. Vasily became a national hero at once. Newspaper broadcasts reported every day how many German soldiers the sharpshooter Vasily shot and killed today. He also became the hope and motivation of the soldiers, the hope of the entire Soviet Union, and even the young Sasha was a spy for his idol Vasily. When he was young, he might not know the darkness behind it, but he was willing to take such a big risk. He simply believed in Vasily and the idol of this country.

Vasily is actually just a symbol, a symbol of a country to inspire warriors and give people confidence, but his name is Vasily, and he can be called by any name. The whole symbol was not only useful to the fighters and people of the Soviet Union, it even threatened the enemy. They were frightened by the power that Vasily brought to the people, and they understood the power of this example. Vasily acted as the spiritual leader of the whole Soviet Union, and they even sent special snipers to shoot Vasily. Finally, one day, there was a rumor that Vasily was dead. At this time, the officers of the Soviet army immediately panicked, they were anxious, those doctrines were meaningless at this moment. They even tried to deceive the public by telling the lie that Basil was still alive, of course, Basil was not dead. The meaning of this symbol is still there, the leader of this spirit is far more real than those abstract doctrines. Just like the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the War of Liberation in China, batches of "Wasily" also emerged. Perhaps, those unknown martyrs are far more tragic than this, but people in war need such symbols and leaders.

Vasily was deified, but fortunately he still has real love. He met the beautiful and strong Tanya at Sasha's house. A female college student who went to war with the hatred of her parents being killed by the Germans, she met the brave Vasily and was immediately attracted to him. War also needs love. Danilov loved her too, maybe, culturally, they were more compatible, and Vasily was just a silly boy from the countryside who could only shoot. However, love never needs reason and fairness. I said, a lover is the person you can see at a glance in the vast sea of ​​people, and he shines there. This sentence has been verified by many people. Love, this kind of thing, never exists in abstraction. Just like Tanya, where many people were lying there, she still threw herself into the arms of her lover Vasily without any hesitation. The filming of this scene is unpretentious, neither glamorous nor erotic. The initial desire from human nature overcomes everything, and they are in love with each other. Just as when all the dust had settled, Vasily took off his apotheosis, and he looked for his love, Tanya. Although the doctors and nurses told him that there was no Tanya here, he still saw his love Tanya among the wounded. This is the lover, the point that shines in your eyes no matter how many people. There is no utilitarianism and selfishness in love, just like Danilov, he used his power to keep Tanya in a safe place, and he even spoke ill of Vasily to his superiors, disregarding brotherhood. Maybe he was blinded by jealousy, which is also the ugly side of human nature, but love is never ugly. Tanya's love for Vasily allows her to overcome her fears and face the vicious war together.

War is cruel, and human nature is also very complicated. Fortunately, love is still pure and beautiful. Just as Eileen Chang wrote in "Love", you meet the people you meet among thousands of people, and in the boundless wilderness of time for thousands of years, there is no one step earlier or one step later, just happened to catch up. Love is so real.

    Turn the war completely into a background introduction, reveal the deep scars of Sovietism, and the cold eyes of the sniper run through the whole article. "Man will always be a man. There is no new man. We tried so hard to create a society that was equal, where there'd be nothing to envy your neighbour. But there's always something to envy."

    Grandfather: [whispering to boy aiming rifle] I am a stone. I do not move. Very slowly, I put snow in my mouth. Then he won't see my breath. I take my time. I let him come closer. I have only one bullet. I aim at his eye. Very gently, my finger presses on the trigger. I do not tremble. I have no fear. I'm a big boy now. Ready Vassili? Now, Vassili, fire!
