When Lu Hai went out, his daughter was only a few months old, and now she can speak, I'm afraid that the child doesn't even know what he looks like for more than a year, and when he thinks of this, he can't help but think of his own life experience, his father is also like this, as soon as the war started, he didn't even see his father, not even a photo, but he was a soldier, and he didn't have too many choices...

"What's wrong?" Qiao Miao said. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"It's okay, it's good, I heard that the Japanese army has also launched a bombing of Kunming, you have to pay attention to safety, I can't take care of you!" Lu Hai snorted and said.

"Don't worry, the Japanese army's air raids are not strong, and the second expeditionary operation is also being planned, the Japanese army will soon be driven out of Yunnan, and my father dug a bomb shelter at home, you don't have to worry about it!" Qiao Miao said.

"That's good, I've wronged you, when the battle is over, I will definitely rush back..."Lu Hai said.

"My daughter and I are waiting for you at home..."

In November 1943, the international situation changed dramatically, and the Japanese army launched the Battle of Changde in order to contain the Chinese army's counteroffensive against Yunnan, seize strategic materials, hit the morale of the Chinese army, and force the national and national governments to surrender.

Changde, also known as Liucheng, known as Wuling in ancient times, is an important strategic position on the west bank of Dongting Lake, which is related to the safety of the rear of the southwest.

The Japanese army's military peak pointed directly at Changsha, and the converging troops of the Ninth Theater of China's Sixth Theater launched a large-scale battle with the Japanese army near Changde.

Garrisoned in Changde was the troops of Yu Chengwan of the 75th Division of the 74th Army of the Tiger Ben, and Yu Chengwan's 8,000 Tiger Ben soldiers fought a bloody battle with more than one division of the Japanese army in the city of Changde, and the war turned the city of Changde into ruins.

However, the various units of the Chinese army were under the containment and offensive of the Japanese army, and it was difficult to rescue Changde, and 8,000 soldiers were alone in Changsha, with extremely heavy casualties.

That night, the soldiers of the 58th Army boarded their vehicles one after another and marched in the direction of Changde, and the new 11th Division, with the two regiments of Li Jian and Lu Hai as the vanguard, approached Changde.

The orders of Lu Hai and Li Jian were to move closer to Changde once they got off the car and quickly assembled, and prepared to reinforce Yu Chengwan's 75th Division.

A day later, the two regiments got off in the area of Dafuping and Majitang, but before they could launch the offensive, Changde had already fallen, and Yu Chengwan, the commander of the 75th Division, only led more than 200 soldiers to break through, and the 75th Division was almost completely annihilated.

Changde fell, the chairman of the committee was furious, and strictly ordered Xue Yue, the commander of the Ninth Theater, to send troops to recover Changde, and severely punished Yu Chengwan, the commander of the 75th Division who lost Changde!

For this point of view, Yu Chengwan led 8,000 soldiers to fight hard with the Japanese army for 16 days and nights, almost the entire army was wiped out, and because of the improper command and ineffective attack, Changde was besieged by the Japanese army, and the Tiger Ben soldiers fought hard for many days and suffered heavy casualties, and it was rare for them to break through a small part.

And when Yu Chengwan really broke out, only two guards were seriously injured, and they were rescued by the local fleeing people, spontaneously rescued and spontaneously sentry for them, which shows that the Tiger Ben Army is worthy of the country and the people.

After the two regiments got off the car, the Japanese army had already attacked the loess shop 90 miles south of Changde, and the other side of the river was already full of rumors, and an atmosphere of terror and despair hovered over the heads of the people.

Lu Hai's troops came, but when they saw the people near Changde helping the old and the young, they were crying while fleeing quickly, and many people were helpless and reluctant to leave.

Looking at the soldiers of the 58th Army, who were constantly gathering, these people spontaneously separated on both sides of the road, and when it was clear that these soldiers were not withdrawing but going up, there was a glimmer of hope in the eyes of these people.

Looking at these fleeing people, listening to the cries all the way, looking at the despair and the slightest hope along the way, Lu Hai's heart was as uncomfortable as a knife, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness in his heart, and even felt that it was a shame to be a soldier, because their incompetence made these innocent fathers and villagers suffer such a great disaster.

At this time, on the side of the road, a six or seven-year-old girl cried and cried but fell abruptly on the side of the road, and an old woman in her sixties next to her wanted to hold the little girl but was unable to move because of a leg injury. ”

Lu Hai also frowned when he saw this, got out of the car and walked over and said, "What's the matter?" ”

"Commander, this little girl has fainted, she should be hungry!" Zhao Weiguo hurriedly spoke.

"Give her something to eat"! Lu Hai said.

After speaking, he looked at these people on the side of the road who were weak and couldn't even walk, most of them must be hungry, seeing this, Lu Hai's heart was also sour, and he was silent for a moment before he spoke: "How many days of standing dry food did we bring this time?" ”

"Seven days, two days for steamed buns, five days for fried noodles!" Zhao Jianying said.

"Order the troops to stop advancing!" Lu Hai ordered.

Zhao Jianying frowned, he and Lu Hai stayed for a long time, so he naturally knew what Lu Hai was going to do, Lu Hai wanted to distribute part of the dry food to the people, but this may affect the combat effectiveness of the army, they don't know how long they will fight here, and he is also very clear about the consequences of running out of food, but looking at these war-torn people, they can't make a refutation and finally say: "Stop advancing!" ”

The troops gradually stopped advancing, and then Lu Hai spoke: "Brothers, this is not an order, this is a request, a request of conscience, these villagers are like this because we are not effective in fighting, why did we go out of our hometown and come here to resist the war?" Isn't it just to protect our family and defend the country and not let our fathers and villagers suffer from the flames of war? They are also our fathers and fellow villagers, who have had to leave their fertile fields and become displaced people because of the war, and you know what will happen to them without relief. ”

"I'm not here to order, I'm a request, I ask the brothers to give them our steamed buns for two days, we try to save some food, only in this way can these fathers and villagers be able to go to safety, of course, this is voluntary, if you are willing, I Lu Hai hereby thanked you brothers, and if you are unwilling, I will not be reluctant and will not blame you!"

"I'm taking the lead, this is my dry food for these two days"! As he spoke, Lu Hai returned to the car and took out six or seven steamed buns and handed them to the old woman.

"I do!"

"I'd too..."

For a while, the soldiers in the field responded to distribute the steamed buns they carried to the surrounding people, and they were left with some fried noodles after giving the steamed buns, but under Lu Hai's leadership, none of the soldiers in the field did not give them, and soon these people had some steamed buns to satisfy their hunger, and with these steamed buns, they could ensure that they were transferred alive.

At this moment, an old man spoke: "Sir, are you going to fight Changde?" ”

"Yes, we are here to fight back the lost territory, and you will come back when we fight it!" Lu Hai swore and said.

At this moment, someone in the crowd cheered, and then the whole people on the roadside cheered, and saw hope in their eyes, and many people did not know whether they were moved or uprooted and began to cry bitterly, the war has brought them too much suffering, they need heroes, heroes who can protect them.

Under Zhao Weiguo's care, the little girl also woke up, Lu Hai picked up a steamed bun and said, "The little girl is hungry, uncle will give you a steamed bun, eat it quickly!" ”

The little girl was still a little scared before, but at this moment, the grandmother next to her spoke: "Yaoyao, eat quickly, these uncles who are soldiers are all good people!" ”

The little girl had the courage to take the steamed bun in Lu Hai's hand and ate it in a big bite, Zhao Weiguo hurriedly handed over the kettle and said, "Slow down, don't choke." ”

The little girl was very hungry, and she ate very quickly, she ate a steamed bun in a few bites, after eating this steamed bun, she took Zhao Weiguo's kettle and took a sip, her eyes looked at it urgently again, Lu Hai smiled: "Also, also, you take these with you on the road, uncles go to fight the bad guys, and you can come back after a while." ”

The little girl took a steamed bun again and ate it, and Lu Hai said again: "Fellow villagers, we still have a task to escort you, I hope you will forgive me!" ”

At this time, the little girl's steamed buns were finished, and when she saw that Lu Hai and they were leaving, she boldly said, "Uncle, can you really drive those bad people away?" ”

Lu Hai smiled and squatted down and said, "Well, uncle promises you that you will definitely drive these bad guys away!" ”

"Uncle, what's your name?" The little girl asked.

Lu Hai was also a little surprised, but he still smiled and said, "Uncle is called Lu Hai, you can call me Uncle Lu, what is your name?" ”

"My name is Zhou Yaoyao, uncle should be careful, the bad guys on the other side are bad, when the uncles drive the bad guys away, I'll ask grandma to make you rice cakes to eat!" Zhou Yaoyao said.

"Okay, that's a deal." Lu Hai said with a smile.

"Retractor." Zhou Yaoyao stretched out her little black hand.

"Good!" Lu Hai stretched out his fingers and shook Zhou Yaoyao's little hand together and said, "Hang yourself on the hook, you can't change for a hundred years!" ”

After getting up, Lu Hai spoke: "Let's go!" ”

The soldiers in the field lined up again and began to march, the people in the field waved their hands one after another, some people were even moved to tears, seeing here may say that I am deliberately beautifying, in fact, these things are recorded, the 58th Army has strict military discipline, not to mention that it has also helped the people many times, and it is also a relatively rare place in the country and the army in the past where the people welcome the troops.

Lu Daoyuan also encountered the same situation, when he saw these tragic "homeless people", Lu Daoyuan couldn't help but feel sad in his heart and ordered to fund these people, and wrote a poem: "Not only are Hunan people enthusiastic, but it is difficult to live late for reinforcements." Welcome is warmly chanted, not laughter but crying! ”

The next thing is the battle to recover Changde, and how will the 58th Army behave in this scorched earth war of resistance? Lu Daoyuan said that he became a tiger, so what's the matter? Stay tuned...
