On the streets, you can often hear salvation songs such as "March of the Volunteers", "On the Songhua River" and "March of the Great Sword".

People from all walks of life, colleges and universities, propaganda and cultural departments, etc., have gone to the streets, squares, factories, and rural areas to carry out activities to teach and sing songs of the War of Resistance Against Japan.

The second national famous drama team came to Tunxi and organized an anti-Japanese chorus of 1,000 people in the Jiangxi Hall Square at that time.

Nanjing Anhui Middle School and other colleges and universities, which migrated to Baishan, organized drama troupes and singing teams to actively participate in anti-Japanese propaganda activities, and wrote, directed, and acted by themselves, and their enthusiasm was very high.

They also often went to the streets, squares, factories, and rural areas to perform live newspaper dramas, one-act plays, and teach and sing anti-Japanese songs.

"What's wrong, my face—is it red?" Chu Jiao didn't know why, and she was very uncomfortable being stared at by Yang Ye.

"Hehe, I just want to take a good look, if you don't see you for a long time, you can carry a gun to fight, and you look very powerful." Yang Ye said with a smile: "Although the way you walk and eat has changed, it doesn't have much to do with fighting, right?" ”

"Who said it doesn't matter, you have to eat more to have strength!" Chu Jiao said with a smile.

Yang Ye looked at Chu Jiao carefully, naughtily reached out to touch her face, and said with a smile: "Okay, if you say it's related, it's related." By the way, I want to help you with the things I entrusted, that colonel is an acquaintance with you, and it seems that he is also very good at you, and you must be good at talking. ”

Chu Jiao rolled her eyes and said, "Isn't it very good to be in the hospital, to save lives and help the wounded." After a pause, she patted her head again, "I forgot to buy something, I should go to the hospital to see Brother Zhao." ”

"Brother Zhao, it's weird!" Zhao Wanjun teased: "The relationship is not ordinary!" ”

Chu Jiao smiled faintly and said, "I was born and died on the battlefield, and he was injured to protect me, so it's normal to care about it!" ”

"Then let's just walk around and buy something delicious." Yang Ye said: "Originally, it was a whole ambulance team, but now it is scattered and gangs, and I am very troubled. ”

After the outbreak of the Songhu Anti-Japanese War, the number of wounded soldiers and refugees gathered in Shanghai increased day by day.

At that time, "there were hundreds of wounded soldiers transported to Shanghai and Japan, and at most times nearly 1,000, while the number of beds in Shanghai's ambulance hospitals was only more than 5,000 at most." Shanghai's ambulance hospitals were overwhelmed.

Therefore, the transfer of wounded and sick soldiers and civilians to the interior has become a top priority.

Later, as the fighting moved westward, the communication between the front line and the downtown area of Shanghai became increasingly difficult, so the wounded soldiers were transferred to the Kunshan Wounded Soldiers Transfer Hospital, and the ambulance team also retreated to Nanxiang and Kunshan with the forward troops, and the command post of the ambulance team was moved to Yuecheng Bay, Kunshan.

At the same time, the ambulance team was divided into two shifts, led by Tian Caofang, Luo Xisan, and Luo Chuan, and took turns to return to Shanghai to recuperate.

After the fall of Shanghai, the headquarters of the ambulance brigade serving on the front line in Kunshan was cut off from the urban area of Shanghai, and more than 100 members of the ambulance brigade and more than 20 ambulances withdrew with the troops along Kunshan, Suzhou, and Yixing to the west.

After that, the ambulance team was merged into the field ambulance team of the service unit of the Military Medical Department, and continued to be engaged in the rescue and transport of wounded soldiers, and marched in two ways.

One route was led by the captain Tian Caofang to lead a small detachment to Tunxi via Nanjing; One route was led by Luo Xisan, Wang Gongdao, Zhou Zhongkui, etc., and arrived at Tunxi through Changxing, Guangde, Xuancheng and Huizhou.

After Chu Jiao was injured and unconscious, she was sent to the concession hospital and did not act with the ambulance team. Yang Ye was her classmate, but she evacuated all the way to Tunxi with her colleagues from the ambulance team.

Soon after the ambulance team arrived at Tunxi, there was a disagreement between the brigade leader Tian Caofang and the deputy brigade leader Luo Xisan, which led to a split in the ambulance team.

The captain of the brigade, Tian Caofang, accepted the request of the headquarters to send a telegram and led some people to Nanchang to rest and recuperate, and was later won over by the New Fourth Army.

Luo Xisan took advantage of solving the problem of supply, so that part of the ambulance team was merged into the medical system of the national army, and it was renamed the 'Yangzhou Ambulance Department of the Rear Service Department of the National Revolutionary Army'.

"How can they decide where and where the ambulance team goes? There are differences of opinion and distraction. Yang Ye was still angry about the split of the ambulance team, complaining as he walked.

"I heard that the New Fourth Army is also very good, the officers and soldiers are equal, the commanders are kind, and it is also an anti-Japanese team." Zhao Wanjun said: "Moreover, in the early days of the army, they needed the help of talents from all walks of life. ”

"Gillian, what do you say!" Yang Ye turned to Chu Jiao and asked for her opinion.

"It doesn't matter!" Chu Jiao shrugged her shoulders and said: "In the autumn of the survival of the nation, whether the ambulance team is serving the National * Army or the New Fourth Army, as long as it is an anti-Japanese team, why should it be so clear? ”

"You know." Yang Ye smiled and pushed Chu Jiao on his shoulder, and said, "But it makes sense." ”

"Hehe, if that's the case, we don't have to worry about it." Zhao Wanjun laughed and said, "Let's go, let's go to Quanyechang (Tunxi Grand Stage)." I heard that there are sheng songs and dances, night and day! ”

"At this time, isn't it appropriate to dance Shengge Man?" Chu Jiao hesitated.

"Today there is an anti-Japanese propaganda singing competition." Zhao Wanjun stuck out her tongue and said, "It's me who used the words incorrectly, I'm sorry for making you misunderstood." ”

Chu Jiao coughed twice and said, "Eat and drink enough, go to the hospital to see Brother Zhao." Then, why don't you find a place to sleep, how comfortable it is. ”

Yang Ye and Zhao Wanjun glanced at Chu Jiao sideways, pouted their lips with contempt, ignored Chu Jiao's suggestion, and walked away with Chu Jiao one by one.

Chu Jiao rolled her eyes helplessly, looking at Zhao Wanjun's black hair and white neck, she seemed to remember something.

"Hum what?" After walking for a while, Zhao Wanjun tilted her head curiously and asked.

"Sing your song!" Chu Jiao smiled.

"You're scolding me, aren't you?" Zhao Wanjun's eyes widened, and she feigned anger: "You sing, if you can't sing, I'll-"

"Oh, she's itching." Yang Ye smiled evilly, stretched out his hand, and said, "I'll help you." ”

"Don't, don't." Chu Jiao hurriedly clamped her arms and said with a smile: "Just kidding, don't be angry!" ”

The three girls walked giggling, attracting the attention of many passers-by. The three of them quickly lowered their voices, lowered their heads and chuckled and walked away quickly.

……………

During the Anti-Japanese War, Laotunxi was not only the rear of the front line, but also the front line of the big rear.

At that time, Wuhu and Xuancheng in southern Anhui fell one after another, the situation in Huizhou was grim, and the Japanese army approached Ningguo and Changhua, Zhejiang. However, after the Japanese army approached Xuancheng Shuidong, they were blocked, and they did not dare to go deeper into Huizhou, so Tunxi was able to be peaceful.

The relocation of the former enemy headquarters in the Third Theater to Tunxi made this place a decisive military strategy.

In such a geographical location, as well as the needs of military strategy, the anti-Japanese upsurge that swept the country at that time naturally could not exclude Tunxi.

People from all walks of life in Shancheng not only held a meeting of the heads of anti-enemy organizations, carried out "charity sales" activities, strictly practiced economy, raised a large amount of money, and supported the front line; At the same time, conscription and recruitment campaigns were also launched under the propaganda campaign.

It's just a recruitment on the street, of course Chu Jiao won't consider it. Because even if he is recruited, he is just an ambulance, and if he wants to carry a gun to fight and kill devils, I am afraid it will be difficult.

As Ma Mingyu withdrew to Tunxi, Chu Jiao was counting on him. When Ma Mingyu receives the new task, and when Zhao Youcai recovers from his injuries, it is estimated that she can follow them to the guerrilla zone to fight the devils.

On the way to evacuate Shanghai, a skirmish with the enemy was conducted, and Zhao Youcai was wounded in order to protect Chu Jiao.

After all, Chu Jiao's marksmanship is very good, but he mainly acted in the city before, and he still lacked experience in field combat. Some of the theories instilled by Shen Chen will also take some time to transform into practice.

In the courtyard of the Tunxi Wounded Soldier Hospital, Chu Jiao saw Zhao Youcai again.

After Zhao Youcai walked around, he didn't want to stay in the ward. He didn't want to see the robes lying on the hospital bed, worried about their future disability and livelihood; Don't want to hear moaning, whining, discouraged words.

Seeing Chu Jiao, eating the food she brought, and listening to her and Zhao Wanjun talking about what they saw and heard about shopping, Zhao Youcai felt much better, and he also had a smile on his face.

"Ma Mingyu came to the hospital, and he was inside." Zhao Youcai swallowed the food in his mouth, found a gap, and said, "He wants to recruit some soldiers and return to the team after recovering from injury." ”

Chu Jiao nodded and said, "This is a good idea, the soldiers who have recovered from their injuries are undoubtedly already veterans, saving a lot of time in training, and may even become the backbone of the army or a junior officer." ”

Zhao Youcai pondered for a moment and said, "He told me that he was going to look for you, it seems that there is some news from Shanghai." ”

Chu Jiao lowered her eyelids, and probably guessed that it was about Shen Chen. From the newspapers from the outside world, some information can be known, but it is not detailed.

"I think with his skill and shrewdness, he will definitely be fine." Zhao Youcai knew Chu Jiao's thoughts, and comforted him: "Don't look at the fake newspapers, it's not that you haven't caught anyone, even the corpse capital-"

Zhao Wanjun understood, a little sad, but still smiled and said, "Yes, Mr. Shen is the most powerful." If you look at other newspapers, you can see how many devils he has killed and made Hongkou a mess. ”

Chu Jiao raised her head slightly, the momentary worry and loss of consciousness had disappeared, she pursed her lips and laughed, and said: "He will not die, the scourge lives for a thousand years, and he is the biggest scourge." ”

Zhao Youcai and Wanjun were a little stunned, looking at Chu Jiao's expression carefully, it didn't seem to be reluctant, it didn't seem to be a pretended smile.

Of course, they didn't know Shen Chen's secret, and only Chu Jiao knew that Shen Chen would not die in the true sense. I just don't know if he's changed his body, or if he's hiding somewhere with his original body, waiting for an opportunity.

Chu Jiao chuckled, stood up and moved casually, and turned her gaze to the sky in the distance.

In the blue sky, a few faint clouds were slowly moving. Her thoughts seemed to be attached, flying, floating.

********************************************************************

Clusters of white clouds, moving slowly in the sky; A small piece, as if in contemplation, as if peeking down.

Shen Chen stood on the mountain beam, holding a telescope and looking around. In the distance is Zhangzhuang, and you can see the faint smoke wafting on it.

Juzi stretched out her hand, opened her eyes and closed her eyes, and followed the eye-beating method taught by Shen Chen on the side, measuring the stones in the distance for a while, and taking the big tree as a target for a while.

It took a long time for Shen Chen to put down his binoculars, lowered his eyelids and thought about it.

Although this mountainous area is far from complete, from the initial impression, it seems to be a good choice to let my uncle's family move to Wangjiawa.

"Sister Da Mei." Seeing that Shen Chen was a little stunned, Juzi hesitated for a moment, and said, "Just let your uncle's family move to our village, and I will definitely help you take care of it." ”

Shen Chen smiled and said, "Okay, I think so too." When the time comes, I'll trouble you and the aunt and uncle. ”

"No trouble." Juzi got a definite answer, she was very happy, looked at Shen Chen's outfit, and said with some envy: "Wait for me to dismantle the quilt and use the white quilt to make clothes." ”

Hehe, Shen Chen shook his head with a smile, although it is more fashionable to wear it like this, but it is a practical need, and this point has to be explained clearly to Juzi.

"This cold and snowy land is all white, so I wear this white camouflage suit." Shen Chen opened his mouth and explained: "You see that I am lying on the ground, the color is similar to that of the snow, is it not easy to find?" ”

Juzi blinked, nodded and said, "Yes, it's all white, if you don't move, it's really hard to find." ”

Shen Chen smiled: "Then when it comes to summer, there will be green everywhere, green grass, green woods, green crops, do you think I will still wear white clothes?" ”

Juzi thought about it, probably thinking about the scene described by Shen Chen, and then suddenly said: "At that time, I wore green, which was similar to grass, trees, and crops. ”

"In autumn, when the weeds and leaves are yellow, you may have to change your clothes again." Shen Chen had to say it to Juzi and others in such a plain and detailed way, and the professional terms were rarely used, and they had to be explained if they were used.

Juzi understood now, and said with a smile: "I understand, but I can't be too eye-catching." Especially for the enemy, you can't let them see it all at once. ”

"That's right." Shen Chen smiled and nodded, "That's the truth." The enemy, especially the devils, is very accurate in marksmanship. But if I can't find you, no matter how accurate my marksmanship is, it's useless! So, you don't have to rush to remove the quilt, and it's never too late to prepare when it's time to use it. ”

Kikuko smiled embarrassedly and said, "I understand." If it's not my turn to fight, it's a waste to make any color of clothes. ”

Shen Chen pursed his lips and smiled, stretched out his hand and pointed into the distance, "I saw that little tree, a distance of one hundred and eighty meters!" That's your goal, and that's the focus of your practice. Set the ruler down, and as I said, practice shooting at this distance. ”

"Sister Da Mei, how far can you hit?" Kikuko asked curiously.

Shen Chen smiled and said, "More than three hundred meters!" If you shoot accurately, you can still be sure of about 200 meters. ”

Juzi sighed, and was a little disappointed, and said, "I don't know when I can practice like you?" ”

"If you can hit a target at a distance of 100 meters, you are already a qualified fighter." Shen Chen said: "Even in the regular army, if you have such a level, you will exceed seventy or eighty percent of the people. So, what are you not satisfied with? ”
