3. I don't want to live anymore

It all started in May of '42. In early May of that year, after a fierce battle, Myitkyina changed hands several times and was finally conquered by the Japanese army. In this way, the expeditionary force was in a dilemma, and even all the passages back to China were cut off by the Japanese army. Sun Liren, commander of the 38th Division, heeded the advice of General Stilwell and led his troops to retreat into India.

However, Du Yuming, deputy commander of the expeditionary force, refused this order from Stilwell, chief of staff of the theater, because the British and Americans demanded that the Chinese troops withdraw into India as refugees. After Du Yuming telegraphed Chiang Kai-shek, commander-in-chief of the China-India-Burma Theater, for his consent, he began his adventure through the primeval forest of the Savage Mountains.

At this time, the procession was in disarray, and the large lawn was full of light and heavy weapons, broken and mutilated cars, and the wounded were everywhere, sitting, lying down, and carrying on stretchers. The mechs were busy blowing up heavy weapons and car baggage that they couldn't carry, and the whole place was filled with smoke. Zhao Xiaochun and the others guarded those seriously wounded, meticulously bandaging, medicating, and changing gauze, and were so busy sweating profusely.

The most rare thing is to do the ideological work of the seriously injured, Li Yan'er, who was seriously injured and his legs were blown away, shouted loudly: "I am thirsty to death, give me water." He looked very excited because of excessive blood loss, and after a while he said: "Whoever gives me a shot, Lao Tzu Xie Lu Xie Xie Who, it hurts me to death, and I don't want to live." Li Lan walked over and gave him an injection of sedatives or analgesics, and it was much quieter for a while. Zhao Haisheng was always calm, one of his palms was gone, and the other was only half an arm. In fact, he had already thought about it and found a chance to end himself, but he didn't have a chance for the time being. Zhao Haisheng studied in the middle of the fifth year and was considered a literate person in the army. He was already a platoon commander, and his original purpose in coming to the unit was to be promoted to become wealthy and glorify his ancestors.

Zhao Haisheng glanced at Li Yan'er, who was slowly quieting down, and looked at his painful appearance, and wanted to help him finish it in his heart. He thought, what's the use of people like them living? Originally, I wanted to be promoted and make a fortune, but now, even living a normal life is a luxury, and getting married and having children is a matter of the next life. Even if anyone is willing to marry him and have a boy and a girl, he can't even touch their heads, how can he support his family without his hands?

Thinking like this in his heart, he still had a faint smile on his face, and he looked very strong on the surface. At this time, Wang Yueyue passed by Zhao Haisheng's stretcher with a few bottles of potion, and Zhao Haisheng stopped Wang Yueyue: "Xiao Wang, come and ask you", Wang Yueyue thought, I just changed the medicine for you, I didn't see that others were busy, and smiled and said: "Ao, I'll come over later."

Zhao Haisheng was a little unwilling, and continued to shout: "Xiao Wang, come here and ask you something important", Wang Yueyue thought, a seriously injured person, what is the important matter, because he was in a hurry, Wang Yueyue finished busy, so he walked to Zhao Haisheng's side with a smile and asked, "What's the matter?" Platoon Commander Zhao", "Xiao Wang, I don't know if I should say something", he didn't wait for Xiao Wang to answer, and continued: "If my injury is taken care of, would you like to marry me as a wife?" Wang Yueyue thinks this person is really funny, one, there is no condition to connect your palm now, and his arms and palms don't know where they blew up, how can you see your injuries well; Second, we've only known each other for a few days, so we can't talk about being familiar with each other, and besides, it's a bit of an occasion to say this at this time, so I said angrily: "I'll talk about it when you're better." Zhao Haisheng knew that Lu Dao was the result, and he didn't know why he had to ask, and he felt uncomfortable.

Zhang Minmin was not far away, and he could hear the conversation between Wang Yueyue and Zhao Haisheng clearly. In fact, she already felt that Zhao Haisheng was a little abnormal, he had looked at the photo he put in his breast pocket for the fifth time today, he used his mouth to take it out, and then took it back with his mouth, especially strange thing, he also used his foot to hide a small barrel of gasoline that the mechanical soldier dropped on the ground under the stretcher.

At this time, she took a serious look at Zhao Haisheng and found that his mood was a little wrong, and his smile was more ugly than crying. She was afraid that Zhao Haisheng would go to extremes, so she deliberately walked over and said half-jokingly: "Platoon Commander Zhao, when you recover from your injuries and return to China, I will be your matchmaker", Zhang Minmin quipped again: "Ha, ah, ha, if you don't dislike me for being ugly, I'll marry you as a wife, hahaha." As he spoke, Zhao Haisheng also grinned.

After lunch, when the troops were about to leave, a tragic thing happened, Zhao Haisheng, Li Yaner and two other seriously wounded committed suicide by self-immolation with gasoline, everyone hurriedly extinguished the fire, only Zhao Haisheng still breathed among the four people, and died a few minutes later. Wang Yueyue blamed herself for a while, as if she had caused them to commit suicide.
