Chapter 173: Untitled
Holding two boiled eggs and watching Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhao leave, Shen Chen shook his head, not quite understanding the reason for the change in Aunt Zhao's expression.
Well, don't think about it, eat the eggs first.
Shen Chen has already developed this habit, he will take the road in front of him, and he doesn't have to think about the long term.
Because the current Da Mei can only be a small part of his real life, just like possessing Chu Jiao and fighting a bloody battle on the battlefield of Songhu.
Walking to the street, Shen Chen found that Liucun was really lively, no different from the deserted when he came a long time ago.
The soldiers of the Eighth War Army were busy sweeping the streets, removing soil, carrying water, and carrying firewood. The dung, rotten firewood and grass on the street were all cleaned up, and a few soldiers carried small buckets of foreign iron to write slogans and post notices on the walls.
In the courtyard of the village, some soldiers were setting up a stage and hanging curtains, laughing heartily and speaking happily.
Shen Chen was accustomed to this, and he didn't bother to reach out to work. When I returned to my lodgings, I sat down at the kang table and began to refine the bullets with the small file I had just gotten.
For him, there is no interest in any publicity, mobilization, theatrical performances, etc., and it has no impact. Instead of spending that time, you might as well prepare and take out a few more devils in the next battle.
Although Shen Chen didn't care about life and death, it didn't mean that he would take the initiative to find death. And in the era of war, sometimes you can't even make a single mistake, because if you make it once, you will die.
The red light can wait a little longer, but life cannot be repeated. Some mistakes are like red lights, you can't run around, otherwise the result will be fatal.
In the same way, to survive in a dangerous environment, agility is one thing, and one's own ability and adequate preparation are also quite crucial factors.
You don't know when you're attacked, you have to have the strength and skill to defend or counterattack, you have to react as quickly as possible, and you can't delay at all.
For Shen Chen, the real enemy is himself now.
His strength has already reached there, as long as he is cautious, does not make mistakes, and plays well, no one can beat him.
Of course, Shen Chen just started from his own reality, thinking about problems and doing things from the perspective that he was just an ordinary soldier.
But for Zheng Tuan of the Eighth Route Army, it was different. Shen Chen also believed that Zheng Tuan would be able to draw very useful conclusions and master more favorable combat methods after this battle.
For example, in combat, street fighting proved to be an effective tactic in the face of the huge disparity in the heavy firepower of the enemy and us.
Although the street battle was a brutal war of attrition for both the offensive and defensive sides, it was a good way for the Eighth Route Army, which had an advantage in numbers and weak heavy firepower.
You must know that in the national liberation war that paid great sacrifices, the Chinese soldiers often fought to the death with the Japanese devils in the ratio of 1 to 3, 1 to 5, and 1 to 10, interpreting the belief that every inch of the country and every inch of blood was lost.
Moreover, the successive victories are also worth rejoicing, although for the whole country, it is not inconspicuous, and it cannot fundamentally reverse the overall situation of resistance against Japan, but the significance is not ordinary.
Because, judging from the stubborn nature of the Japanese, a small partial victory cannot change the final result, unless the devils are allowed to eat the atomic bomb, and a few more long-range bombers may change history.
Otherwise, even if it is American-style equipment, in the face of the tenacity of the Japanese, it will have to fight extremely hard.
The final outcome may not be able to be changed, but is it meaningless to eliminate more devils and free more ordinary people from the cruel rule of devils?
And Shen Chen is not active in other things except killing the enemy, there is another reason. That's the cliché that China and Japan are separated by a strip of water and friendship from generation to generation.
His viewpoint is that there has never been friendship between China and Japan in the past, and there is no friendship between China and Japan now, and there will never be one in the future. Putting forward the illusory concept of Sino-Japanese friendship in violation of the facts can only mislead the country and the people.
What to say: "The Sino-Japanese war not only greatly harmed the interests of the Chinese people, but also greatly harmed the interests of the Japanese people. So, the people of both countries are victims. The Japanese people should unite and overthrow the imperialist government".
Shen Chen had heard similar propaganda about Sasaki by political workers, and although he didn't say anything on the spot, he hated it in his heart.
If this war only harmed the interests of the Chinese people, but did not harm the interests of the Japanese people, and even made the Japanese people gain great benefits. Wouldn't the Japanese people still have to actively plunge the war of aggression without overthrowing the ******* government?
If the Japanese government had fairly distributed the wealth plundered from China to the Japanese people, then the Japanese people should have supported the war.
As for the few so-called "anti-war people", how many of them are?!
"The forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds." Every country will produce cowards and anti-government people, and the key is to see which part of the mainstream is clear.
In other words, if in the Sino-Japanese war, Japan loses only troops, while China loses a large number of civilians in addition to its troops, the balance of the war will inevitably be tilted in favor of Japan.
Even if Japan surrenders, their reconstruction will be carried out more quickly than China. Because, their losses are much smaller than China's.
In order to restore this balance, the Chinese must do everything in their power to kill all the Japanese they can see.
The old Japanese invaded China in the past, the young Japanese will invade China when they grow up, and the Japanese women will give Japan the next generation of aggressors, so they are all enemies of China.
Therefore, Shen Chen thinks that there is no need to feel unbearable and unrighteous for the elderly, children, women and children. Killing every Japanese is a contribution to the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and a delay or even a delay in Japan's post-war reconstruction.
As for what since the Tang Dynasty, China and Japan have had exchanges and a long history. Shen Chen also felt that there was a problem with understanding, and the essence was not like this at all.
Sending envoys to the Tang Dynasty is fundamentally inseparable from the nature of the Japanese.
When China was strong, the Japanese were the protégés of the Chinese, and the Chinese regarded the Japanese as their guests; When China was weakened, the Chinese fell under the sword of the Japanese.
Moreover, Japan's wolf ambitions for China were undoubtedly revealed as early as the Tang Dynasty, and the battle of Baijiangkou was not fought with little Japan? ”
Japan's respect for China during the Tang Dynasty was only a manifestation of their worship of power.
At that time, Japan was still in an era of near ignorance, and it was far behind the Tang Dynasty in terms of culture, technology and national strength.
As a result, Japan sent Tang envoys to China many times to learn manufacturing technology, architectural art, code system, and so on. In addition, Japanese was modeled after Chinese cursive, etc., so that Japan began to step out of the primitive era and complete the so-called Dahua Innovation.
In other words, the purpose of the Japanese to submit to the Tang Dynasty was nothing more than to introduce culture to improve their ignorance and backwardness.
Similarly, after World War II, Japan was so obedient to the United States that even the emperor would get up every morning to bow to MacArthur and gain the trust of the United States to buy equipment and acquire advanced technologies such as automobiles, electrical appliances, and semiconductors with the wealth plundered from China and Asia.
As soon as they felt full-fledged, they began to look down on the Americans again, and said that the engineering and management level of the United States was useless, and "Japan Dare to Say No" is an example.
It can be seen from this that to say that the history of friendship between China and Japan is completely contrary to the facts.
Although the only basis for this claim by Chinese is the close association between Japanese students in the Tang Dynasty and some Chinese scholars.
But they fail to see that this kind of exchange is a one-way cultural and technological export from China to Japan, and the respect of Japanese students for their Chinese mentors cannot be used as proof of Japan's friendship with China at all, but only proof of the selfless goodwill of the Chinese towards Japan.
In all the years after the Tang Dynasty, including the Song, Ming, Qing, and Republic of China, the Japanese not only did not respect China, but frantically invaded, destroyed, burned, killed, and looted at every opportunity.
Japan's deep-seated malice toward China is not because we have done anything to be sorry for Japan, but precisely because we have taught the Japanese too much.
Japan did not create their own civilization, they introduced Chinese civilization as the foundation of their culture. In order for the Japanese to dominate the world, they must first completely defeat China, its enlightenment teacher, in order to get rid of its inherent inferiority complex.
Once China is eliminated, Japan can present itself as a member of the world's civilization and become the world's leading force.
This kind of psychology is the same as those martial arts stories, where the disciple of the unscrupulous artist wants to kill the teacher after he becomes successful.
Therefore, it would be a mistake to learn from the fact that we do not answer these questions in an empirical manner, but to generalize that there are always more good people than bad people everywhere, or even to assert that 90 percent of Japanese people are good.
We cannot take anything for granted, nor can we use our own methods of thinking and moral standards to judge other nations, nor can we assume that other nations have similar concepts of good and evil as ours. Otherwise, all the actions of Japan will become incomprehensible.
Every nation has its own unique personality, and the correct way is to summarize their habits from their behavior and study the laws of their thinking and behavior.
Just as after the defeat of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Japanese strategists began to study and formulate elaborate plans for the destruction of China.
Tanaka Yoshiichi's detailed plan to occupy Manchu and destroy China can be said to be the culmination of 300 years of Japanese research, and his understanding of China's resources and humanities, as well as the sinister intentions and meticulous planning, "Any Chinese who are not numb will break out in a cold sweat when they see it." ”
Therefore, the statement that blames everything on **** reverses cause and effect.
You must know that Japan's brutality has a long history, and from the perspective of Chinese history, it can be traced back to at least the Ming Dynasty's Japanese pirates.
If you look at the history of Japan itself, the bloody character of murder is actually an inherent part of its culture, and the emergence of **** is actually the inevitable result of the development of this trait to an advanced stage, not the other way around.
In fact, Shen Chen's theory and viewpoint have existed for a long time, although it is not as detailed as it is now, but the general outline is already there.
Moreover, his current identity cannot be made in a big way, so as not to arouse suspicion and be unbelievable. But he has already instilled it in others, and Chu Jiao is one of them.
……………
Thick, dark black clouds, like an endless curtain of grey, lay low overhead!
The raindrops fell, first sparsely, then densely, crackling on a battlefield full of corpses and blood, a mess.
At the breakthrough, the Chinese and Japanese soldiers fought desperately and fought repeatedly. And mud has a greater impact on devils in military boots.
Between the fireworks, in the muddy splashes, the soldiers on both sides turned into wild beasts, fluttering and rolling, shouting, roaring, moaning, screaming.
The sound of guns, the explosion of grenades, sweat and blood, against the background of all this, humanity is completely abandoned.
With an astonishing sound of "squad cutters", a group of devils braved artillery fire and bullets to fight back again.
There were constantly devils who were kicked off by the blast or knocked down by shrapnel, but the other devils ignored it and howled frantically to fight back.
Da Da Da ...... The machine guns fired desperately at the devils, spewing a deadly rain of bullets.
After paying heavy casualties, the devils who had sacrificed their lives finally rushed to the position, and they were greeted by a row of shiny bayonets.
Blood splattered, mixed with the popping of bayonets into the flesh, the screams of being stabbed, and the sound of gunfire that didn't talk about fair fighting.
The feet are covered with wet mud, the devils look clumsy, their footwork is slow, and some smart guys have already thrown off their boots and fought barefoot.
Zhao Youcai deftly changed his footwork, pulled out the devil's bayonet, and pierced the devil's ribs with a backstab.
Another bayonet stabbed at Zhao Youcai, but was forcefully pushed away by the comrade-in-arms next to him, and he kicked the devil in the crotch fiercely.
The cracking sound indicated that the devil's egg was broken, and he screamed, his face twisted in pain, and he fell on his back.
A soldier who was wounded and fell in the muddy water suddenly turned over and jumped on top of the devil, jamming the devil's neck with all his might. The devil's throat gurgled and his eyeballs bulged out of his sockets.
An old devil with a full beard jumped over, his bayonet was stained with blood, his face was hideous, and his skills were excellent, forcing Liu Dachuan to retreat again and again.
Bang! After a gunshot, the old devil who was about to stab suddenly stopped moving, half of his face was bloody and blurred by the bullet, and with terrible pain, the old devil fell straight down like a log.
The rain became heavier and heavier, and the sound of explosions and thunder was mixed, and sometimes it was impossible to tell which was which.
The two sides of the enemy who have been beaten into mud figures are still fighting desperately, but the devils who have been divided and attacked, although they are desperately resisting, are also being overwhelmed by the surging attacks one by one.
Smack! Chu Jiao took advantage of the fire of the explosion to pull the trigger, and a devil soldier who rushed like a bear to kill like a dog threw away the command knife and fell into a piece of muddy water.
A man with multiple wounds struggled to get up from the dirt, faced with several bayonets around him, and raised his hands in a rare gesture of surrender.
Bang! A gunshot rang out, and the devil lowered his head sluggishly, looked at the bloody bullet hole in his chest, shook his body, and fell on his back in the muddy water.
Chu Jiao pursed her lips lightly, inserted the pistol back into the holster neatly, and picked up the rifle with the scope again.
