Chapter 943: Sacrifice
In the past two weeks of fighting, the heavy snow still covers people's calves, but fortunately, there has been no snow in the past few days, otherwise Li Feng and the others would not be able to come and see the martyrs.
Looking at the wooden signs inserted on the top of this mountain range, there were many soldiers standing around, even if they were wounded, they were dressed in their own combat clothes and brought their steel helmets.
Some were on crutches, some had arms around their necks, and some had only one hand or one leg, but they were still standing.
The lightly wounded veteran was responsible for wiping the tombstones clean, and the little fat man was standing in this cemetery to earn money, and when he looked up, more than 700 tombstones were planted here like a forest.
They are like solid trees guarding the territory of the motherland, even at the cost of their lives.
"Brothers, I'm sorry that the first seven didn't accompany you, no, I'll come over to see you when you are in the second phase......" The little fat man said while lighting a cigarette, at this time Xiao Wen did not stop the elder brother, and even the nurses and doctors present did not stop the wounded from smoking.
Because everyone knows that smoking at such a time is just to relieve the sadness, and the inner sadness is more serious than the physical pain.
Some of the veterans had cigarettes on their bodies, so they stepped forward in twos and threes, took out a few cigarettes vigorously, lit them, and then put them upside down in front of the tombstones, one by one......
"Holy shit, you haven't been able to smoke this kind of good cigarette before, but now my brother brought it to you, you can't say that your brother is not righteous, this kind of cigarette is the best we have in our hands now, I heard that the masters in the city smoke it every day.
I can't even bear to smoke such good cigarettes, I'm keeping them for you......"
The veterans kept their heads down and refused to lift their heads, and they didn't know if the wind and sand had once again blinded their eyes.
This was the last time some reporters took pictures here, and they took out their cameras and took pictures of all the tombstones on the mountain, even if the tombstones were covered with some snow, but they couldn't feel the slightest chill.
The little fat man didn't know where to take out a box of cigars at this time, and he limped to a few tombstones and slowly squatted down.
Cigars were so powerful that they weren't easy to smoke, so the little fat man lit several at once, and then stuck them in front of these tombstones one by one.
"You wealth seekers, this thing was obtained by the boss for a lot of money, Hua Mazi, didn't you say you wanted to smoke the taste of a cigar, just brought it to you this time.
And Wu Xiaoer, didn't you say you like cigars? This time it also brings you ......"
The reporters couldn't help but burst into tears when they heard the foul language spoken by these veterans in front of the tombstone, and the foul words they usually heard would make them feel very uncomfortable, but at this moment, they felt that these words were the most beautiful language in the world.
"I don't know how to describe the mood at this moment, Lieutenant Colonel Li Feng is a very strange person, before I came, I thought he was a particularly mature middle-aged man, he must be full of manly spirit, which makes women intoxicated.
But after coming here, I found out that he was not at all what the newspapers said, he was stingy, liked to play tricks on others, and did not look mature at all, nor was he a mature man with big shoulders and a thick waist.
On the contrary, he is a flexible little fat man, and he is also very uncivilized in his speech, and he is the one who swears the most in the entire army.
It may be what kind of general and what kind of soldier, the soldiers I saw here in the Eighth Route Army all spoke exactly like Lieutenant Colonel Li Feng. Huaxia Library
However, such a unit played a proud record, and stubbornly repelled a whole wing of devils from the front, so that the refugees and civilians in the rear were spared the disaster of the army.
For the first time, the casualties of the various units of the Eighth Route Army reached about 3,000 people, and in this way, the casualty figures of their so-called district squad and county brigade reserves were not counted.
Looking at the tombstones all over the mountains, even Lieutenant Colonel Li Feng, who had always been lively, was silent.
These veterans were very strange, they actually lit a cigarette and stuck it upside down in front of the tombstone, scolding while inserting it, as if they wanted the dead soldier to scold back......
Lieutenant Colonel Li Feng was also very strange, and actually got a lot of paper figurines and other items.
I couldn't figure it out at first, but it wasn't until later that I understood what he was doing it for. ”
Li Feng asked the soldiers to bring over a lot of paper-tied items, and the most of them were women.
I saw the little fat man carrying a few beautiful women with paper ties slowly walking to the front of a tombstone, and then smiled towards this goal:
"See? Lao Tzu specially pierced the beauty of your dog's day, and also pierced it at one time, your dog's day is not shallow, this is to know the girl well underground?
My brothers and I don't know how long it will take to go down to find you, so let's wait, don't be too anxious, and have a few babies with these beauties. ”
Li Feng said these words in front of reporters, as for why a man can marry several wives, such a boring thing as a little fat man will naturally not defend it.
People are dead, why do you care so much?
The other warriors did the same, or walked to the side of a particular tombstone with some small cars, or some other paper-tied items......
Directly in front of the tombstone were burned things, either food, or beautiful women, or carriages and sedans and the like, anyway, all kinds of things, these people said to their companions before they died, and the little fat man would satisfy them.
I don't know how long it burned, Li Feng walked to the front of the cemetery again, and then shouted straight ahead:
"Brothers, go all the way!"
"Brothers, go all the way...... Let's go...... Good ......" The voices of the warriors shouting in unison echoed through the valley, and did not dissipate for a long time, as if hoping that these brothers would reply.
The dead cannot be resurrected, but their will will be inherited, and their dreams will be inherited.
Fighting devils is not something that can be accomplished overnight, there may be casualties, and there may be many families becoming fragmented, but for the dignity of the Chinese nation and the independence of the country, these are nothing, and there will be many people who will follow one after another and move forward bravely.
When they came back, everyone's faces turned red, everyone covered themselves in the quilt and couldn't come out, and everyone was silent that day, even the reporters who were about to leave at the end of the day.
It seems that grief has enveloped the camp of the Eighth Route Army, and even the nearby town of Furong has been hung with white flowers, as if to pay tribute to those fallen soldiers.
