A Chinese farmer has been awarded a Russian national medal for his discovery of the remains of four Russian WWII soldiers who fell while helping to defend China against Japanese invaders in 1945.
The Russian Academy of Military Sciences presented the medal to Liu Guang-lin, a local farmer from northeast China's Heilongjiang Province. The event is part of the activities to commemorate the 70th anniversary of victory in the Soviet Union's Great Patriotic War against Nazi Germany.
Liu discovered four bodies on a mountainside in 2012 and also found metal plates, helmets and badges with Russian cyrillics engraved on them. He reported his discovery to the local government.
Historians from Russia later confirmed that the soldiers belonged to an infantry division of the Soviet far-east army.
The former Soviet Union sent troops to northeast China in 1945. A total of 413 Soviet soldiers died during a battle on the mountain.
Liu transferred the remains to a safe place and kept them for the following three years, before a Sino-Russian project to locate the remains of Russian soldiers started in May.
Later, three more bodies were found during a one-month search in dozens of possible burial sites covering a total of 32 square kilometers.
The remains of all seven soldiers have been buried in a martyrs' park in Mudanjiang City in the province.

一名中国农民因发现俄罗斯二战士兵的遗骸获颁俄罗斯国家奖章，这些士兵在1945年为帮助中国对抗日本侵略者而牺牲。
俄罗斯军事科学院向中国东北部省份黑龙江省的农民刘光林颁发了这一奖章。这是苏联伟大卫国战争胜利七十周年纪念活动的一部分。
2012年，刘光林在一个山坡发现了四具苏军烈士遗骸，以及刻有俄语的金属板、头盔和徽章。随后他将这一发现通知了当地政府。
俄罗斯历史学家证实，这四名烈士隶属于苏联远东军步兵师。
1945年，前苏联派遣军队前往中国东北部地区。在该地区山区进行的战役中共有413名苏联士兵牺牲。
刘光林将烈士遗骸转移至安全场所，并保护了遗骸三年之久，直到中俄于今年5月启动搜寻俄罗斯士兵遗骸的联合行动。
为期一个月的搜寻行动在数十个可能埋葬地进行了搜寻，又搜寻到3具遗骸，搜寻面积达32平方公里。
目前七具遗骸已被迁至黑龙江省牡丹江市的烈士公园进行埋葬。
