Chapter 1198: We Are Brothers

In the evening, Du Wanlin went home from work. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Du Wanlin's usual work is very busy, often busy until late at night to get off work, because there are too many freighters entering the Shiliupu Wharf every day to berth and unload, but in the past few days, because of the war between the Japanese army and the patrol battalion near the concession, the number of freighters entering the Huangpu River has decreased a lot, so Du Wanlin's work has become more leisurely.

Du Wanlin washed his face and prepared to sleep, but as soon as he lay down on the bed, he heard the radio outside faintly sounding, and then the ghost sent God, Du Wanlin got up again and came to the telephone pole at the entrance of the alley.

When Du Wanlin arrived, a large group of people had gathered under the telephone poles, and many of them were strong men as powerful as Du Wanlin, and even a few of them knew Du Wanlin.

Seeing Du Wanlin coming, the few familiar veterans nodded.

Du Wanlin also nodded, and then focused his attention on the broadcast.

On the radio, the Northeast veteran named Wang Gouyu was talking: "Don't hide it from everyone, among the more than 4,000 brothers trapped in the Sixing warehouse, one is my brother, the brother of a mother's compatriot, his name is Wang Shidan, during the Battle of Songhu, I threw him in Qingpu Town, and ran away alone, but today, I must not abandon him for the second time!" ”

Liang Yi smiled and asked, "Comrade Gou Yu, you mean that you once abandoned your brother in Qingpu Town?" ”

"Yes, it's a time to look back on." Wang Gouyu's voice suddenly became low, "That morning, our regiment received an order from the division headquarters, saying that it was going to fight back to Shanghai, but in the evening, the order from the higher authorities suddenly changed again, saying that it was to retreat, and it was to retreat immediately, and it was not allowed to delay for a moment. ”

Liang Yi smiled and asked, "Then, where was your brother Wang Shitan at that time?" ”

"In the hospital, about ten miles away from our regimental headquarters, I originally thought that the division headquarters would send someone to pick up the wounded, so I didn't think much about it." When Wang Gouyu said this, his tone suddenly became excited, "But after Taicang, I realized that all the wounded were thrown in place, and no one cared about them at all!" ”

"Why?" Liang Yi smiled and asked, "Why didn't anyone pick up the wounded?" ”

"Because none of the troops received orders." Wang Gouyu said angrily, "When the Theater Commander's Department gave the order, it didn't think about transferring the wounded to the rear at all. ”

"And then?" Liang Yixiao then asked, "And then what did you do?" ”

Wang Gouyu said: "Then I went back to Qingpu alone, to find my brother, but I didn't find it, and then the devil's brigade arrived, I formed a team with a dozen veterans I met on the way, fighting and retreating, and finally let the devils surround in the forest, if I didn't meet the commander, the grass on my grave would be tall." ”

After a pause, Wang Gouyu said again: "Fortunately, this time I returned to Shanghai with our commander, but I inadvertently found my brother, who worked as a stevedore at the sixteen-shop wharf. ”

"So what?" Liang smiled and said, "You cherish this reunion very much? ”

"Yes." The veteran Wang Gouyu choked up and said, "When I left Fujin with my brother, he was only ten years old, and I once knelt in front of my father's grave and swore that I would return to my hometown with my brother in my lifetime, so I will never make the same mistake again, I have abandoned my brother once, and I will never abandon him a second time." ”

"If, I mean if ......" During the broadcast, the female reporter named Liang Yixiao suddenly became choked up and whispered, "If this rescue fails and you fail to rescue those brothers who are besieged by devils, what do you want to say to those besieged brothers and your brother Wang?"

Wang Gou said without thinking: "I want to say to my brothers, and all the brothers who are besieged, don't give up easily!" Because the brothers who stayed outside are doing their best to rescue them, and we have not abandoned them, so they cannot give up, and they must not give up easily, even at the last moment, they will never give up easily! ”

Liang Yixiao's voice sounded again: "It's a quarter past two in the afternoon, and in half an hour, you're about to set foot on the battlefield, but, as far as I know, the number of troops engaged in the attack this time is only one company, less than two hundred, and the first brigade of traitors in the Broadway building opposite is more than a thousand people, right?" ”

"Yes, there is a huge disparity in strength." Wang Gouyu's voice was low and solemn, "The main force of our patrol battalion has been besieged by the main force of the Devil's Ninth Division near the Sixing Warehouse, and now there are only less than a thousand troops that can be mobilized, and some things can't be hidden from others, and the devil is also clear about our situation." ”

Hearing this, Du Wanlin's mood sank inexplicably.

Du Wanlin really didn't think that the patrol camp would actually launch a rescue operation in such an unfavorable situation.

Maybe many people will think that this is not worth it and is stupid, but Du Wanlin felt a little throbbing inexplicably.

As a veteran, Du Wanlin knows very well that on the battlefield, there are many things that cannot be simply measured by the standard of value or not, because no matter how clever the combat staff officer is, he can never accurately calculate the powerful energy that brotherhood and comradeship-in-arms can burst out at certain times.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Gouyu's voice sounded again, and said: "In fact, each of us knows very well that this rescue operation is simply a moth to a fire, but we will still set foot on the battlefield without returning, just like the commander knew that what was waiting for him in the Sixing warehouse was a trap, but he still went without hesitation." ”

Liang Yi smiled and said: "The commander said that he didn't want to abandon those Songhu veterans for the second time, did he?" ”

"Yes, those surviving veterans in the Battle of Songhu have been abandoned once, and the commander must not watch them be abandoned again, so even if he knows that it is a trap, he also jumps in without hesitation, because he does not want to chill the veterans who have shed blood for the country and sacrificed for the nation."

Liang Yi smiled and said: "I remember that the commander once said that we can't let our veterans shed blood and tears. ”

"Yes, that's a phrase that our commanders often say." Wang Gouyu's voice began to become a little choked, "The commander does not hesitate to die, let alone us?" Therefore, even if we know that we can't win, even if we know that if we continue to fight like this, we can only die in battle, but we will still rush forward without looking back. ”

After a pause at this point, Wang Gouyu's tone suddenly rose: "The reason why we do this is only because we are brothers, even if we die in battle, we will never abandon our brothers!" ”

Wang Gouyu's voice lowered, and Liang Yixiao's voice sounded again.

"Listeners and friends, here, I want to tell you a sad news, not long after the interview, the veteran Wang Gouyu died in an attack, he really did it, he really fulfilled his promise, even if he died, he would never abandon his trapped brother!"

Hearing this, the crowd gathered under the telephone pole was immediately in an uproar.

Du Wanlin also felt as if his heart had been slammed by something!

Suddenly, Du Wanlin felt that something was slowly waking up in the depths of his silent soul.

Liang Yixiao's narration continued: "There are more than 100 brave veterans of the same company as Wang Gouyu who died with Comrade Wang Gouyu, many people don't understand, why do they know that it must be a death, but they still resolutely rush forward? Actually, it's because they don't understand, what is a brother? ”

"The commander said, brother, that is, the one who always has his back to you on the battlefield."

"Brother, it's the one who can stand up without hesitation when the enemy's bullets fly over and use his chest to block the bullets for you!"

"Brother, it's the one who can rush over desperately when you are injured, and vow to save you even if you don't want your own life."

"Brother, it's the one who vowed to drag your body back even if it was against a large-caliber artillery, even if it was only a mutilated arm in the end."

"Brother, it's the one who carries your ashes back to his hometown, and then many years later, when he is seventy or eighty, he can still kneel in front of your grave and cry like a child."

"Brother, it's the one who will always believe that you will not give up, and you also firmly believe that he will never abandon him!"

"Brother, brother!"

"Thank you, and that's the end of today's broadcast."

This was the end of the broadcast, but the people gathered under the telephone poles were reluctant to disperse for a long time.

A young woman looked back at the young man beside her, and said with tears in her eyes: "Ah Zheng, if you want to go, you can go, I will take care of my mother and Nannan, you don't have to worry." ”

The young man's eyes turned red at once, and then he stood up and gave a respectful military salute to his wife, and after saluting, the man turned around and walked away resolutely, from beginning to end, he did not look back, and behind the man, the young woman had already cried into tears.

On the other side, a man with a Chinese face suddenly turned over and knelt on the ground, kowtowed to an old woman who was already full of white flowers, and then cried: "Mother, my son is not filial, my son is going back to the army!" ”

The old woman stepped forward and hugged the man's head, and she also burst into tears: "Son, go if you want." ”

The old woman looked at her son's back, waved her hand, and waved her hand again until her son's figure had completely disappeared, and she was still reluctant to leave for a long time.
