Chapter 338 The old man of the year, two birthdays
Sutton clenched his fists and said excitedly: "Yes, my great-grandfather came to China with deep friendship for the Chinese people. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
As soon as the old man heard the interpreter's explanation, he immediately rolled his eyes and said unceremoniously: "Don't fool people, those American GIs were not polite back then, they wanted the best in everything, even our cattle here were killed, and in the end, even the buffalo was not enough to be sent to the table, and the yak had to be added." A pilot has to have several Chinese people waiting, just like a servant. ”
Seeing that Sutton didn't think so, the old man said: "I recently read some books, and it talked about the Flying Tigers back then, in fact, it was for the benefit of the United States to contain the Japanese country, anyway, everything has Huaguo to contribute money and efforts, don't fight in vain, and finally you big noses want to do it yourself, so you withdraw the Flying Tigers, don't talk about credit!" ”
The old man also seems to be on the Internet a lot, and he actually poured out all the analyses on the Internet, which made Sutton's face a little ugly.
Yan Song didn't know about these things, so he quietly asked Xu Guolin, "Mr. Xu, what the old man said is true?" ”
Xu Guolin coughed dryly twice and did not answer, in fact, in the contemporary era of developed information, the previous history has been analyzed to pieces, and it is not easy to hide it!
At that time, the Japanese gradually showed their edge, so the Americans began to be vigilant, and at that time, China found the United States, but there were no reinforcements, and finally China proposed to use the way of hiring to invite some pilots and planes to participate in the war of resistance.
And these pilots and planes all cost money, and they are expensive, just like the old man just said, in order to make these big noses eat well, even the surrounding cattle were killed, and finally yaks were used, and there were even Chinese servants to serve those pilots.
Xu Guolin's dry cough made the translator immediately divert the topic and ask about the battle that took place in Hongyun County that year.
I didn't expect the old man to really know about this, he said nostalgically: "Back then, in Hongyun County, a troop of Japanese devils sneaked in and prepared to destroy the airport, and later met a company in Hongyun County, and the two sides fought, hey! It's miserable! ”
The old man's mood was a little depressed, and when Sutton learned about it through the translator, he immediately asked the old man to continue talking.
"His great-grandfather was lost in that war, so he wanted to come and find the remains, old man, tell us what you know."
"Oh! It turns out that his great-grandfather died here! That's quite a man! ”
The old man's face was a little better, he took a cigarette in his mouth, and recalled: "At that time, I was on the outskirts of Hongyun County, and I followed my father to visit relatives, but the next day I heard people talk about this battle, which was miserable! A company, almost completely annihilated, was scattered, and a few years later, there were still people who found bones in the mountains, all of them who had fled into the mountains after being scattered. ”
"Do you know the foreigners in this unit?" The interpreter asked.
The old man said with some embarrassment: "I don't know, even the battle process I heard from those villagers, and the most I said was that it was very miserable, and in the end, reinforcements arrived, and the devils of the Japanese country retreated." ”
At this point, there were no clues for the follow-up, and the translator immediately bought a pack of cigarettes as a thank you.
After returning to the hotel, Sutton was a little depressed, feeling that his great-grandfather must have come here for the Chinese people, but the old man said that he was serving the strategy of the United States, which made him very depressed.
After Xu Guolin knew the reason, he persuaded: "Let's not look at the details, just look at the background at that time, in that background, the Flying Tigers did play a role in the war of resistance against China, this is the merit, no one can erase the merit!" ”
There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, the group went to Hongyun County.
When we arrived in Hongyun County, the time was just right, and everyone went to look for the information of the year.
In the local chronicle office, the information was quickly found, but as soon as I looked at the number of pages, everyone's hopes fell to the bottom.
The man explained: "The battle was very short, so there is not much written about it, and Mr. Edward is treated as a missing person in the information. ”
In one sentence, a short but fierce battle is the epitome of that beacon years.
Countless Chinese braved artillery fire, rushed to the battlefield one after another, and then disappeared into the long river of history.
Walking on the streets of Hongyun County, looking at the crowd of people who got off work, Lin Rui suddenly had the absurd feeling that he was at the intersection of history.
"Just over seventy years ago, there was a battle here, and my great-grandfather disappeared here, where was he?"
Emily pulls out a camcorder and begins filming the streets, ending with Sutton's narration.
Yan Song raised his eyebrows, and said with interest: "Hey, Xiao Rui, is this guy going to broadcast live on the Internet?" ”
Lin Rui turned around and said, "Brother Song, don't want to be an Internet celebrity with your image, it's not enough to be embarrassed." ”
"Who is an Internet celebrity! I'm a serious person! ”
Internet celebrity nowadays is not a compliment, but a somewhat subtle derogatory term.
As he was talking, the camera lens slowly turned around, and Lin Rui immediately turned sideways, while Yan Song held his belly and smiled.
"Hey! Mr. Lin, why don't you want to be on camera? You know, these shots are likely to end up being an important part of a documentary. ”
Seeing Lin Rui dodging the camera, Sutton asked incomprehensibly.
Lin Rui waited for the camera to turn over, then turned around and pointed at Yan Song and said, "He is my business representative, it is enough to have him appear." ”
In Lin Rui's heart, if there is really a documentary, then Yan Song's appearance will receive a lot of attention, and those who are interested will eventually become potential customers and contribute to his points career.
As for Lin Rui himself, it is best to remain mysterious.
Sutton made a lot of calls today, some from friends, some from companies related to documentaries, and they all asked the same question: Did you find it?
Sutton answered one by one, and finally received a call from home, in which Sutton's birth time had been found, but there was a slight difference in the time.
"Mr. Lin, my great-grandfather's birth time has now found two, and the family can't judge which one is correct, so ......"
Lin Rui frowned and said, "Give it all to me." ”
After getting two specific times, Lin Rui looked at the time and suggested going back to the hotel first.
"Master Lin, are you sure?" Xu Guolin's eyes were a little hot, if Lin Rui could find Edward's remains, then of course the results would be counted as his share.
Lin Rui nodded and said, "As long as one is true, then there is great hope." ”
As for the packing ticket, Lin Rui didn't do it, so the group rushed to the hotel eagerly. (To be continued.) )
