Chapter 391: Choosing to Go Back
When Sunshine heard this, her heart was as uncomfortable as a pinprick. Why didn't she think like this when she was in school? But now that she's here, she's still letting it happen.
Even if Zhang Zuolin is not the one who can change the fate of China, at least he is, there is an extra layer of barrier here, and the people here will suffer less slaughter.
And what is the use of her strength alone in this troubled world where mountains and rivers are broken?
She shook her head diligently, trying to banish the thought from her head.
She couldn't let herself be shaken, otherwise, she wouldn't be able to find her way.
"Let's go find Anzi and them, I don't know how the two of them are now." She said worriedly.
Yang Chen smiled: "Don't worry, I left a secret message for Jincheng along the way, and they can find us." ”
Sunshine nodded blankly, and Yang Chen pulled her to hide in a lush bush, the messy branches scratched her face, and it hurt hotly.
After a while, a group of Japanese soldiers hurriedly ran over from the country road not far away, and the two of them hid quietly in the grass, and after another half a day, the figures of Anzi and Gu Jincheng finally appeared on the nearby mountain road.
The two of them crawled out of the grass and met them.
Anzi saw that Sunshine's hand was injured and quickly asked her what was wrong?
Sunshine's eyes were red, and after enduring it for a long time, he finally endured the tears. She had never seen such a savage killing in peacetime, and it was the result of her indulgence. How so? How do you account for the suffering of the people here?
Anzi glanced at Yang Chen, and Yang Chen sighed. He whispered, "She saw the Japanese killing, and she hasn't slowed down yet." ”
Anzi grabbed Sunny's shoulders and said softly, "This was the case during the war years. Don't be too upset. ”
Among the four of them, three of them are soldiers, and they are relatively strong in their ability to withstand this kind of thing, but obviously she is different, she has not experienced war, so naturally she can't imagine how cruel war is.
Sunshine nodded silently and looked up at the endless field in front of him. I was at a loss.
"Where are we going?"
"It's not far from Mukden, and if you walk, you'll be there in one day. I still have to go back to the Marshal's Mansion, the Marshal is seriously injured, I have to be by his side, second. I don't go back to Shuaifu for a day. The pursuit of the Japanese will not stop for a day, and I don't want innocent people to be implicated by me again. Gu Jincheng said and turned his head to look at Yang Chen: "Yang Chen, you go with them, I will report to the Shuai Mansion and say that you are dead." ”
"Let's send you back to the Shuai Mansion first." Yang Chen said without raising his head.

A group of four people walked along the mountain road, and gradually a field of crops appeared in front of them, and in the early spring, the crops in the field grew tender green seedlings. Though there was little trampled near the roadside, it was inside the crops. From a distance, it is still a new green.
Gu Jincheng looked up and saw several villages not far away, with houses lined up.
"There's a house up ahead." He turned back to the three of them and said, "Let's get out of the village." ”
Yasuko nodded, "Okay, let's pick the wasteland and the woods to go." ”
They were about to change course when they saw a burst of fire rising from the nearest village, mixed with the sparse sound of gunfire.
Sunshine suddenly remembered that there was a group of Japanese soldiers going in that direction just now, and her heart suddenly cooled: "Not good! The devil has entered the village! ”
In the 21st century, this sentence has become a joke, but in this day and age, everyone knows what it means.
The four of them ran all the way, when they ran to the entrance of the village, the devil had already left, leaving only the ruins of the broken walls, there were a few houses still on fire, the houses were burned to only a few black holes, the villagers were holding buckets to put out the fire, the village road was scattered with some shabby clothes and household goods, a few frightened dogs were barking wildly in the street, and then went further, I heard a miserable cry, the sun looked in the direction of the cry, only to see a few corpses lying next to the village road, adults and children, the death was miserable.
Yasuko grabbed a villager by the hand and asked him what had happened.
"The Japanese came to arrest the strong men, and the young and strong laborers on the village road were all arrested, and a few who were unwilling to leave, and the whole family was killed." The honest-looking villager wiped his tears and sighed: "In this world, the common people really have no way to live." ”
"If the Japanese don't let us live, we will resist!" Yang Chen said angrily: "Resistance is death, and if you don't resist, you will die, it's better to fight with them!" ”
As soon as he shouted like this, he immediately attracted a lot of puzzled eyes.
"If someone kills my family, I'm going to kill them! If someone burns down my house, I'm going to kick them out! If you don't resist, you can only be killed and hacked! Yang Chen clenched his fists and said, "Folks, now we can't point to others to save us!" We can't even expect the aggressors to find out in their conscience and let us go! We can only save ourselves! Fight with them! ”
He said this with righteous indignation, but there was silence in return.
He looked at the old, weak, sick and disabled people around him, his eyes darkened, and his heart was sour: how could these old people, women and children, who could not even eat enough, follow him to the battlefield?
After a long time, a young woman's voice came from the crowd: "My man is a bandit in the mountains, and he has also killed a lot of devils, and many young men from nearby villages have gone with him, and when my baby is older, I will let him go." It is one that can kill one. ”
Anzi turned his head to look at Gu Jincheng, Gu Jincheng frowned, leaned over, picked up the child she was holding in her hand, and said loudly: "I am from the Dashuai Mansion, among you who want to fight devils, come with me." ”
The woman looked at him suspiciously, "Sir, are you—"
"Gu Jincheng!"
*
The next day, Gu Jincheng returned to the Dashuai's Mansion, Yang Chen reluctantly said goodbye to him, turned around and followed Anzi and Sunshine.
A soldier's vocation is obedience, and Anko told him to go, and he had to go.
"The three of us are still wanted, it's not safe in the city, let's find a safe place to settle outside the city, I'll watch the astrolabe at night tonight, and when my hand injury is healed, I'll take you back to the future through time." Sunshine whispered. She took two people with her this time, the stakes were very high, and she couldn't make the slightest mistake, she needed to take them back when her mind was particularly calm, otherwise she would miss a thousand miles, and it would be even more troublesome if she wore it at another time. ”
Yang Chen was still a little hesitant, "I want to find Lu Xuan before leaving." ”
"I've discussed this with Anzi, I'll take you back first, and then find my senior brother, my senior brother is much more powerful than me, and much more secure than me." Sunshine said softly: "Don't worry, we won't leave Lu Xuan alone." ”
Yang Chen sighed softly. (To be continued......)
