The turnaround occurred in August.

On August 13, the August 13 Incident broke out in Shanghai. For a time, Shanghai was in danger, and China was in danger. The call for a united war of resistance is getting louder and louder, and no one can stop it.

……

In Zhangjiawan Town, early in the morning, Yue Siliang handed over all the work in his hand to Di Hanming and Wang Shuangyin. With only Lei Zi alone, he rode his horse in the direction of Yangquan Town.

"Salute."

Outside the courtyard of the headquarters of Yangquan Town, when he saw Yue Siliang, the regiment commander, coming over and the guards immediately saluted. After returning the salute, Yue Siliang asked Lei Zi to wait outside, and he walked in alone.

"Hey, bro. What are you from? That officer just now looks so imposing. ”

As soon as Lei Zi heard the guard's question, he immediately raised his eyebrows and slapped the bridge of his nose.

"That's ~, the one who went in just now is our leader! If you don't inquire, the commander of the entire regiment will be the most magnificent of our 17th regiment commander Yue. ”

"Huh?! Seventeen...... Cotton ......"

The guard looked like a rookie egg, like a green onion, and almost came out with the words in his heart. Fortunately, Lei Zi, who had already begun to stare, used his tall and strong body to make the little warrior swallow his words back.

……

Yue Siliang naturally didn't know what was happening outside the door, and all his energy was focused on the next meeting. He knew that this conversation would have a huge impact on the trajectory of his life.

"Report to the Command! The 17th Regiment Yue Siliang reports! ”

As soon as his feet stepped into the door of the headquarters, Yue Siliang stopped. Stand up straight and report loudly.

"You're here, come here."

The commander was using red and blue pencils to mark the combat map at this time, and when he heard Yue Siliang's report, he didn't leave the map with his hand and looked up at it before he whispered.

"Yes."

Yue Siliang walked to the conductor's side and looked at the conductor with eye level.

The conductor was not very strong, but rather looked a little thin. A clear water face is always so calm, and it is rare to see exaggerated expressions. But Yue Siliang knew that under the gentle and weak appearance of the conductor there was a wise mind. He is a top tactician, and even Yue Siliang's training during this period can be regarded as enjoying the aftermath of command in a sense.

Following the hand that commanded the tour on the map, Yue Siliang's eyes also moved to the map. In the end, Yue Siliang's eyes were fixed on a name on the map: Han Cheng.

"It seems that the commander is thinking about crossing the Yellow River."

Yue Si muttered in his conscience, and at the same time began to think about what he might say to him next.

"Yue Siliang, you are my veteran. Don't be restrained when you come, this time I will call you over for one thing. The team is going to be reorganized, and the number has come down: The 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army, your regiment will be reorganized immediately, and follow me out of Shaanxi first. ”

The command's words shocked Yue Si's conscience, these words were already obvious, and he could be regarded as personally ordering the general! If Yue Siliang remembered correctly, the commander might have already calculated the first battle that had to be won before he left Shaanxi!

The team was reorganized, and it meant that it was necessary to fight a tough battle with the Japanese army. At this time, China really needs a victory as a booster, which means that this is the first battle with the Japanese invaders must be won! At this time, the commander actually pointed at him personally, and Yue Siliang felt that his chest was rising high as if he had blown up.

"Conductor, I'm ......"

"Okay, don't say anything superfluous."

The commander waved his hand and stopped Yue Siliang's words that had just come to his lips.

"You don't need a hammer to beat the drum, I know what you look like. Go back and train the troops well, you will fight tough battles. Your establishment will soon come down, and as for your brigade commander, he is also your old superior. ”

When the conductor said this, Yue Siliang's eyes lit up at that time.

"Could it be the old battalion commander?!"

"Haha, your brain is spinning fast. That's right, it's him. Follow your old battalion commander and go back and prepare! ”

"Yes!"

Yue Siliang's feet slammed together and gave a neat military salute.

……

……

"Captain! I heard that we're going to with the white dog in the future?! Is it true?! ”

On the third day after returning to the regiment headquarters, the news that the team was going to be reorganized gradually spread in the regiment. The fighters were in different moods when they heard the news, but more often they were confused and angry.

"Captain! If we get together with the white dogs, will it still be a revolution?! ”

The first to jump out was Lei Zi, that day he followed Yue Siliang to Yangquan Town, everything was kept secret, and now when he heard the news, he was immediately furious.

"Shout what? What are you shouting at me? ”

Yue Siliang's face sank like water, and the faint two words made Lei Zi suddenly realize that something was wrong, and his neck shrank timidly and looked at Yue Siliang.

"Go, bring the commissar and the double seal and invite them over. I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you! ”

A sentence pushed Lei Zi back, and he nodded aggrievedly and walked out. Seeing that the room was finally clean, Yue Siliang sighed and continued to look at the paper in his hand, there were only a few dozen words on this thin piece of paper, but it was like having some kind of magic Yue Siliang couldn't finish reading it.

This was delivered from the command yesterday, and the official number has come down: [Eighth Route Army, 115th Division, 344th Brigade, 424th Regiment].

……

……

There is not much time for the fighters to change their minds, and it is urgent to reorganize. However, Yue Siliang knew that the ideological work for the soldiers was necessary, and at the same time, it was for himself.

"Captain!"

"Captain!"

……

On the threshing floor outside Zhangjiawan Town, the soldiers stood in several squares neatly, waiting for Yue Siliang and Di Hanming's lectures. Seeing Yue Siliang's arrival, the soldiers couldn't help but speak, their faces full of confusion.

"I know what you're thinking."

Yue Siliang stepped on the high platform and shouted angrily.

"You are thinking: the clothes on your body have changed, the emblem on your hat has changed! It's become the same situation as when you were in a pot with traitors! Think it's a step backwards! Isn't it?! ”

Some of the veterans in the team couldn't help but bow their heads, the past eventful years were deeply seared in their hearts, and the lessons they had learned at the price of blood made them no longer willing to trust easily.

"I understand you! My heart hurts too! ”

Yue Siliang rarely shouted so hoarsely, and his voice was about to burst at this moment.

"But! We are not more than a decade ago now! No one knows the way forward better than we do! ”

The sound was like a huge drumstick hitting everyone's hearts, including Di Hanming. He looked at Yue Siliang in disbelief, and this confidence and arrogance made him tremble.

"Clothes changed! But our hearts have not changed! Our faith has not changed! Tell me! Now you! Or not yourself! ”

Yue Siliang's question made everyone's hearts stunned, and they didn't understand what this meant. However, Yue Siliang didn't give them time to think, and asked loudly.

"Answer me! Isn't it!!! ”

"Yes!"

The warriors replied.

"Louder !!"

"Yes!!"

The mountains roared and the tsunami was blowing, and the momentum could not overturn the sky.

"Then what are you still grinding and chirping?! You haven't changed! Our faith has not changed! What we're going to do hasn't changed! It's also fighting for our country, for our nation!! ”

Yue Siliang raised his fist high and slammed it through the air.

"Look behind you and around you."

The sudden calming tone made the warriors stunned for a moment, and then they followed his words and looked back and forth. Surrounded by the boundless yellow earth, there are patches of millet that are growing happily, and the villagers who are watching them from afar.

"Knowing that we are going to be transferred, the fellows are reluctant. But are we walking in vain?! We left a big change in Zhangjiawan! We have left a good year for our fellows!

Now that we're gone, what are we going to do? It's to resist aggression! Let the villagers enjoy the peaceful days with peace of mind! Let us enjoy peaceful days in the future! Let our children and grandchildren enjoy the peaceful days forever! Tell me now! What are you fighting for?! ”

"For the country!"

"For the nation!"

"For the folks!"

"For the sake of children and grandchildren!"

……

There was a lot of shouting on the threshing floor. Looking at the high morale of the soldiers, Yue Siliang nodded with satisfaction, he knew that most of the ideological work had been completed.

"Remember, our hearts are always red and always hot. Now, all of them are available, and they are reorganized! ”

After that, Yue Siliang took the lead in taking off his military hat, folded it carefully and put it in his arms, and brought a new military hat.

……

In the quiet night, Yue Siliang sat alone on an old stone. As if thinking of something, he took out the octagonal hat he had taken off from his bosom, and stroked the red star slowly and carefully, trying to expand the outline of the five corners in his heart.

Ten years of fighting horses, I have seen too many comrades fall, how can the knot in my heart be easily dissolved?

"Commander......"

Di Hanming pressed his broad palm on his shoulder with a solemn face, and shook it vigorously, the meaning of which was self-evident.

"Heh, when did Hamming come over? I don't even know ......."

"Commander......"

"I saved it, I'm a soldier."

Yue Siliang let out a long sigh and stood up. The octagonal hat in his hand was once again put back in his arms. solemnly straightened the hat on his head.

"That's it! It's time for our group! Crossing the Yellow River!! ”
