Chapter VI: Evacuation of Schools
Just after lunch, a student came out of breath, and he found Teacher Yang and said that Principal Duan wanted him to go back to school quickly. When asked what was going on, the student shook his head. Teacher Yang didn't think much about it, and he told Camp Commander Geng that he wanted to go back. Camp Commander Geng said that he would stay here for one night and leave again tomorrow, and Teacher Yang said that Principal Duan asked him to go back quickly. Battalion Commander Geng asked why? Teacher Yang said that he didn't know clearly. However, he quietly pulled Camp Commander Geng over and told him that even if Principal Duan didn't tell him to go back, he had to leave. Battalion Commander Geng understood. Say, we'll have a date later. Teacher Yang brought these students back.
Seeing that Teacher Yang didn't say a word, Lu Zhu didn't want to ask more. Seeing that the road was too dull, I couldn't help but ask, "Teacher Yang, what's wrong?" ”
Teacher Yang? He said with a solemn face: "Lu Gong, Principal Duan told us to go back, it is estimated that the devil is coming." Don't talk to your classmates about it first, go back to school. ”
After returning to school, Ms. Yang came to Principal Duan's office, where several teachers were already seated. When Principal Duan saw Teacher Yang coming, he asked Teacher Yang to sit down, looked at everyone and said, "As far as I know, the current situation where the devils occupy Huarong and Anxiang is not good for us. The school decided to dismiss all of them and let the students go home separately, so that some students from Huarong'an Township did not have to go home, which had been occupied by devils, and many refugees were pouring in the direction of Nanxian County. Maybe the devils will be all in the line in a few days.
Principal Duan also asked the chef in charge of the food to prepare rice and distribute it to the students, and told Yang Binglian to gather the students and tell them about their current situation.
"Principal Duan, Principal Duan......" At this time, a tight voice sounded outside the window, interrupting Teacher Yang's words. Xiao Lin broke in and crashed in, and said breathlessly: "Quick, quick, Teacher Yang, there are flying, and there are planes in the sky." ”
A room of people hurriedly ran out of the house and looked into the sky, and sure enough, they saw a plane flying towards here, and when it flew overhead, a round red mark was clearly visible on the wings. Teacher Yang knew at a glance that this was a reconnaissance plane. He realized that the enemy was about to act. He said to Xiao Lin: "You hurry back and inform the old Zhang Tou who rings the bell and let all the students gather on the playground." Kobayashi answered and ran out quickly.
A hurried bell rang, and the teachers and students gathered on the playground. The students looked at each other, not knowing what was going on, and they began to talk about each other.
"Students, be quiet, please be quiet." I saw Teacher Yang standing on a desk and impassionedly delivering his short speech: "Students, since the July Seven Incident, the Japanese devils have flaunted their might on the land of China, and the Chinese people have been ravaged and destroyed like never before, and a large area of the motherland has been trampled on by them. You see, right now. He pointed to the sky and continued: "They are unscrupulous in the air. They have occupied Huarong and Anxiang, and soon their iron hooves will trample on our beautiful place, bully us, kill us, and make us have no peace, can we agree? ”
"Can't!" A shocking echo resounded in the playground. The birds in the trees flew away.
When Principal Duan came, Teacher Yang jumped down and helped Principal Duan onto the desk. Principal Duan straightened his glasses, looked around at the students on the playground, and said passionately: "Yes, Teacher Yang said well, you answered well. We must not say yes. However, students, we are unarmed, what can we use to fight against the Japanese devils armed to the teeth, and only by taking up arms, and only by taking up arms and fighting to the death with the enemy can we achieve victory in the War of Resistance. But you don't have weapons, and to tell you the truth, I don't have weapons either, and there's nothing I can do, and neither can you. You are still a student who is learning culture and knowledge, and I don't want you to fight the devil with your bare hands, if this is the case, it is a senseless sacrifice and the most stupid daring. In the front, there are our Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army, as well as our allies defending our homeland, we are not afraid of devils, only devils are afraid of us. Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood. As long as we are here, we will win. But today, I must tell you with great regret that we have to temporarily suspend our current studies, leave this school, get as far away from here as possible, go to relatives and relatives, find a place to hide, one day, we will come back, the sky here will always be ours. You are still young, and China's construction still needs you. Wait a while, please take a few liters of rice as travel expenses and go home, even if the school compensates you. ”
After speaking, he bowed deeply, then glanced at the students on the playground with affectionate eyes, jumped off the desk, and came to the place where the playground had already prepared to distribute food to the students as travel expenses, and silently picked up the bamboo rice jars one by one and scooped up one after another into the sleeves of the students' schoolbags or clothes.
Teacher Yang came over and said a few words to Principal Duan and left. He had to go, the instructions of the superiors were ironclad, and discipline was like this, not to mention that he had been delayed for more than ten hours, and when he left, he glanced at Lu Gong and Li Xiaolin, who were scooping rice for his classmates, and sighed meaningfully, and hurriedly walked towards the school gate.
By the time they had finished distributing the food, it was already dark, dark clouds were rolling overhead, and a heavy rain was coming. When Lu Gong Xiaolin and the others looked for Teacher Yang again, they couldn't see his figure. Lu Zhan was a little lost, looking into the distance outside the school gate, his heart was a little sour, he didn't know when Teacher Yang would come back, and he didn't know if he would be able to see Teacher Yang again in the future. At this time, a gust of wind blew in the sky. Lu Wei came, Cao Qingman said to Lu Gong that he would go first, Lu Gong had no words, Cao Qingman left, Xiao Lin and Lu Wei stood next to him, Xiao Lin held an umbrella.
"Let's go, Brother Pole. It's time to go home, your classmates are gone, and your sister is going home too. Li Xiaolin urged.
Lu Zhu looked at Xiao Lin and replied, "Do you think we will see Teacher Yang again?" ”
"I don't know. Let's hurry up, we'll be late and won't be able to catch the ferry, so we won't have to spend some money to stay in a hostel. Li Xiaolin replied.
Lu Wei said: "Brother, go back, it's too late to go back, Dad will beat us." ”
