Chapter 221: The Shame of Victory
Tang Jixian, who was adding wood to the fireplace, first listened to Bai Yi's inexplicable words, but he didn't care, and only focused all his energy on the sonorous broadcast on the radio, which was Zhong~~! ~~ The latest war situation in North Korea is being broadcast by the Central People's Radio. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The Volunteers launched the third campaign, not only crossed the 38th parallel, but also regained Seoul in a short period of time, this news is like a thunderstorm on the ground, so that Tang Jixian, who had fought bloody battles in North Korea, can be said to be excited, what is Seoul, the capital of South Korea (that is, South Korea)!
Before he was wounded and returned home, he heard that the United Nations Army had arranged tight fortifications between the 38th parallel and Seoul, and while vowing to defend Seoul, he also actively prepared for a new round of counterattack offensive, but he did not expect that not long after the third campaign of the Volunteers was launched, Seoul was taken so easily.
What does this prove? Of course, the US forces on the other side are no longer opponents at all, and as long as they can maintain the rhythm of this offensive, maintain the high-intensity campaign offensive, and attack fiercely, it will not be long before they can completely liberate South Korea and completely push the US GIs into the Sea of Japan to feed the fish.
That is to say, the Korean War is about to end victoriously, and those comrades-in-arms who are fighting bloody on the front line will soon return to their motherland......
"Knock~~~"
Just when Tang Jixian was thinking about how to celebrate the victory in a few days, there was a sudden violent thumping sound behind him, and when he turned around, Tang Jixian couldn't help but be startled, only to see Bai Yi, who was fine just now, his face at this time was as red as a pig's liver, and the vodka that was originally placed in the cabinet was held in Bai Yi's hand at some point, and was pouring into the cup on the side, and was picked up by Bai Yi before it was full, and poured it into his mouth, and then only heard the sound of "dong ~~", and the empty cup fell heavily on the table......
Seeing this, Tang Jixian hurriedly stepped forward, snatched the remaining half bottle of vodka from Bai Yi's hand, and frowned fiercely: "Commissioner, you are ......?"
"Happy, excited, excited!"
Looking at Bai Yi's red eyes and a wry smile, Tang Jixian didn't see the slightest excitement, which made Tang Jixian a little confused, Bai Yi, what's wrong? Isn't his own victory worth rejoicing, why can't he see it in Bai Yi's body at all, but he is as depressed as if he had lost a battle.
Although Bai Yi drank a lot of wine, his consciousness was still very happy, looking at Tang Jixian's confused appearance, he still didn't understand what this was a subordinate's idea, so he shook his head with a wry smile: "Victory, you should be happy, you should be fast, but at that time, to ordinary people, but to us, it was even more humiliating than being slapped in front of a dozen times, really, I feel a deep humiliation!" ”
In the end, Bai Yi simply stood up, and his loud voice even overshadowed the Siberian cold wind howling outside the wooden house, especially the stubborn and unyielding eyes, which made Tang Jixian stunned for a moment, because the same gaze on Songhu Peak Lao Ge also revealed to him, and then he held a bayonet and launched a final charge.
But the next moment, Tang Jixian found out that this was not the Songhu Peak of Nine Deaths, but in a small wooden house along the Trans-Siberian Railway, so he settled down and asked puzzledly: "Victory is naturally happy, how can it be a shame?" ”
"It doesn't matter if it's just to compete on the battlefield, but what if it's for something else?"
"For something else? Wasn't the third campaign aimed at defeating the UN forces? ”
"Perhaps!" Bai Yi smiled lonely in Tang Jixian's suspicious gaze: "But it's more important, but it's for our allies, to be precise, it's for our big brother of the Soviet Union!" ”
Tang Jixian was completely blinded by Bai Yi's twisting logic, he was just a simple soldier, and he was naturally happy from the bottom of his heart when he heard the victory, and even wanted to run directly to the Korean front line with a gun, pushing US imperialism into the sea to feed Wang Ba, such an impassioned and blood-boiling scene, no matter what, it was impossible to link it with the word "shame", so he couldn't understand it, and could only turn into a monotonous question: "Why?" ”
"Why? Because we need more heavy firepower, because we need an air force that can gallop through the sky, because we need better advanced technology, because we need the coveted industrialization, because we want to realize the dream of a great power that has been dormant for a hundred years, we need a lot, but there is no free lunch in this world, even if it is the big brother of the Soviet Union, which is an ally in general.
There is no strength to get his hands on, he can't fight for more interests, the Soviet Union is at most just talking about it, and it won't give us any substantial benefits, Seoul, although it has been destroyed beyond recognition, but the political significance is very huge, taking it is equivalent to accepting a vote to the Soviet Union, this is the sacrifice and forbearance that our country chooses in order to realize the dream of a strong country, and would rather pay a huge price, but also exchange it from the Soviet Union to support the future industrial base, I am engaged in industry, looking at such sacrifices, how do you say I should feel? ”
In a word, Tang Jixian was speechless when asked, he was a simple soldier, but it didn't mean that he didn't have dry goods in his head, just because the sudden arrival of victory was a little too excited, and he didn't think deeply, after Bai Yi said this, Tang Jixian reacted, and the entanglement of interests in this can be described as quite complicated.
Bai Yi is right, in fact, after the end of the second campaign, the volunteers who entered the Korean war were also very tired, and the battle line advanced south to the 38th parallel, and the supply line was stretched for more than 200 kilometers, and it was urgent to rest on the spot, which could be between the Soviet side's harshness in the supply of weapons and equipment, as well as the export of industrial technology and equipment.
Despite the numerous protests lodged by the Chinese government, the Soviet side still went its own way, and even sometimes simply provided only technical models for basic plans and products, and did not care about anything else; in desperation, some so-called "Soviet aid" factories in China could only rely on experts studying in the West to develop new products according to American or European standards.
The Soviet Union was also very clear about this, but Stalin felt that this was enough, and if it wanted more, China could only show some more "sincerity", or transfer the East China Railway and the South Manchurian Railway in the northeast, as well as the two ice-free ports of Lushun and Dalian, to the Soviet Union; Either North Korea will fight the US military to the end, or it will not want to get a full set of industrialization technical assistance.
The Chinese government has always refused to give up an inch on territorial sovereignty, and it cannot give up the road of industrialization that supports the rise of the entire nation, even if the price of the comeback is huge, but also to create an unshakable foundation for the future generations of the country, so China decided that the volunteer army on the Korean front line should stop repairing and quickly launch a third campaign.
With fierce flesh and blood, it proved to the world that China would rather stand and bleed than sit and accept the alliance under the city for a while, so a battle to exchange flesh and blood for industrial technology began......
