First of all, it is almost the first time for the assembly to feel and examine our army's participation in the war from the perspective of a humble little person. In the past movies, it was not leaders and generals pointing the country in front of the map, or the PLA battalions launched a charge to destroy the enemy like ants, or they were heroes or heroic characters, such as Huang Jiguang, Dong Cunrui, or Yang Zirong and Wang Cheng. Even if there are small people, they are basically used as embellishments. Generally speaking, the typical small people in our army are guards, a few soldiers in a certain platoon, recruits, and cooks. The typical small people in the enemy army are mistaken for the Kuomintang soldiers. of ordinary farmers, etc. However, from the perspective of an ordinary company commander and an ordinary soldier, the assembly has experienced the cruelty of war rather than grandeur, pain rather than victory
, and no preaching, no instilling justice and evil. From the beginning to the end of a film, there is no major truth, no revolutionary or ideological propaganda. This is completely different from the previous war movies, but it is a bit like "Soldier Assault". On the contrary, what Feng Xiaogang is trying to express is the brotherhood that has been experienced in life and death. Think about it, in the past, our army soldiers called each other "comrades", and the Kuomintang called "brothers", which has almost become one of the signs of the enemy. But I do believe this is not the case. All men know that a group of men who are born and die together will use such a high-sounding title as "comrades" in private? Not impossible, but rare. Therefore, the "brothers" of the millet are likely to reflect the actual situation in the trenches.
Another thing that the assembly number wants to reflect may be the vocation of a soldier, as well as the spirit of professionalism. This is reflected twice in the film. Once, I was ordered to defend the position. I knew that everyone would die, and the remaining few people didn’t have much actual combat power, but the order was to retreat when they heard the sound of the trumpet. The other time was in North Korea, behind the enemy, the mission was to bombard the bridge, but the observer stepped on the mine, the mission was about to fail, what should I do? Gu Zidi made a choice that was only possible to accomplish the task. Note that this is different from the revolutionary slogans and victories that still reverberate in Dong Cunrui and Huang Jiguang's films at the critical moment. On the contrary, Gu Zidi has only one thought: this is a task that must be completed. This is professionalism. In fact, Dong Cunrui and Huang Jiguang's thoughts at that time were not necessarily very lofty. At most, they only had two thoughts in their hearts, one was to complete the task, and the other was to be discussed below, human instinct.
Rally is more of human instinct and nature than ever before. Man is a very strange animal. Man understands the value of life better than any other animal, understands the pain of death better, and is more self-aware. But man is also one of the few animals that can move forward even if he knows he is going to die. This is not so much because of beliefs, doctrines, morals, etc., but because humans have an instinct to help their fellows. It is difficult for a person to stand by and watch when his companions are charging and fighting, so soldiers can brave the hail of bullets and intensive artillery fire to charge, and can stand their positions knowing that they are dead, and only cowards and deserters feel ashamed. It is precisely because of this that this situation of all being killed and one surviving often occurs, because after all the companions die, there is no companion to help, and there is no mental pressure to force us to die, so hide, or Running away is often a reasonable option. Therefore, from the point of view of the great truth, it is completely justified to doubt the millet land. It wasn't mentioned in the movie, but let's think about it, how could it be possible for Gu Zidi to go out to fight alone with hundreds of enemy troops outside? The only reason is that the instructor died at this time, and there was no mutual help instinct, but the survival instinct drove him to live. Gu Zidi will not directly admit that he ran away, and no one will admit it, because he did fight to the end, he could die at any time, he is not a coward, he is very brave, he is not "fleeing", but he is a "human" .
In addition, the assembly number also deviates from the previous facial-like portrayal, and does not shape our army into an invincible, glorious example of justice. In the film, we can see soldiers of our army shooting prisoners, lying about hearing the trumpet sound, being timid and almost collapsing, and the head of the regiment tricking his subordinates to go all out in order to complete the task, etc. From a general point of view, it is impossible Yes, but inferring from common sense, it is not only possible, but very likely, it is almost inevitable.
This film also reflects the confusion of soldiers after the arrival of peace, the ruthlessness of time, and the forgetting of history. Gu Zidi is desperately looking for troops, he is not fighting for his own reputation. He was willing to start as a soldier without resuming the position of company commander, which showed that he did not care about his official position and status, nor his own honor, but what he cared about was the honor of the dead brothers. The brothers died, and he was the only one left to fight for the honor of the brothers. This was his responsibility as heavy as a mountain.
In fact, watching the story of the assembly number is almost the same as the story I heard from my grandpa. My grandfather was working behind enemy lines during the Anti-Japanese War. Unfortunately, he was discovered by the devils. Everyone was arrested. Everyone planned to escape on the way. Everyone died or disappeared when they escaped. It is impossible to verify. Even if he is alive, he will never see each other again. He is alone Escaped and found the Eighth Route Army, but no one could prove his work behind enemy lines, he had to rejoin the army and fight like a new recruit. Coincidentally, he was able to recite tables of trigonometric functions, so he became an artillery observer. He told me about the PLA new recruits who fled when they heard the sound of cannons a few miles away, and also about seeing the National Army Broadsword Team bravely fighting hand to hand to conquer our army’s position in the binoculars. He resisted the U.S. aggression and aided the DPRK twice and entered the DPRK three times with injuries, and there are still scars left by shrapnel on his legs. After liberation, he reluctantly accepted various arrangements such as disarmament, job transfer, local construction, retirement, etc. again and again, and he also gave his comrades the opportunity to raise his salary four times.
In the face of war and history, people are helpless. Small people have been afraid, deceived, brave, fought, fought for honor, fought for ideals, grieved for the loss of brothers and lovers... But in the face of history, people are small and helpless after all of. All the living can do is sprinkle a handful of soil on the graves of the dead, and then continue to walk their own way.
BTW, assembly numbers are not perfect, here are some disadvantages:
1. The enemy is also a human being. Without a description of the enemy, it is not a complete war
. 2. There are flaws in the military details. When starting a 6-person search, tactical actions such as sign language and formation are beyond the times. At that time, don't say that the People's Liberation Army did not have this sign language, and the sign language of the U.S. military was not yet formed. The search formation and gun-holding movements of several people are not like the field army, but more like special forces. I don’t say whether there was such a formation at that time. It is to die, and fighting in the open space, the opponent sweeps over with a shuttle, and a team of people will be reimbursed. Moreover, the film deliberately designed the plot for the sake of being cool, and it was a bit too hypocritical for the PLA to wear American military uniforms and helmets.
3. There is a slight suspicion of plagiarism from recent foreign war movies in details
