"Brother Zhou, do you want to bring this?" Zhang Leyi asked with a windbreaker in his hand. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Zhou Hexuan smiled bitterly: "Sister, it's summer." ”

Zhang Leyi said in a serious tone: "But I heard that the Northeast is very cold, and the temperature at night in summer is also very low. What if we go out at night? ”

"Buy it when it's cold, we have money." Zhou Hexuan joked.

"It's not serious." Zhang Leyi gave him a blank look and put the windbreaker back.

It was now the beginning of August, and they were about to leave for Mukden to attend the opening ceremony of Feng Yong University.

Zhang Leyi was wearing a floral dress, her eyebrows were like daisies, her eyes were like autumn water, her hair was pulled behind her head, and everyone's beautiful temperament came to her face. She walked into the station with her handbag and immediately attracted the attention of many men.

No way, Zhang Leyi's breasts are bigger than Meng Xiaodong.

Now that the northern women have not put their chests, Zhang Leyi is like standing out from the crowd wherever she goes, which makes the eyes of the men in Tianjin bulge.

"Unsightly, unsightly!" An old pedant on crutches shook his head repeatedly.

Zhang Leyi was watched by everyone, couldn't help blushing, and asked in a low voice, "Should I also bind my chest?" ”

"What bundle? Let them see. Zhou Hexuan didn't care.

Zhang Leyi smiled: "Hehe, I'm afraid you'll be jealous." ”

The two took the Sun brothers into the carriage, they bought first-class tickets, and even brought an independent toilet, which could go to the high-end dining car to eat, or the flight attendant could deliver the food to the door.

"Dirty ~~~~~"

The train gradually left the station, and after traveling about a few hundred meters, a large crowd suddenly appeared on both sides of the railway.

Those people were ragged, unkempt, and so hungry that they were yellow and thin, but at this moment they turned into athletes and rushed towards the train without their lives.

"San'er, come up!"

"Mother, mother, where are you?"

"Ah, my legs!"

"Don't drag, let go!"

"My son, you died so miserably!"

“……”

There were chaotic shouts all around, and the young and strong quickly climbed onto the train, but the old, weak, sick and disabled had nothing to do. Some people climbed halfway and were squeezed down, and the lucky ones were just injured by falling, and the unlucky ones were directly crushed by the wheels.

There are also people who have been separated from their loved ones, squatting on the side of the road, wailing and crying helplessly.

"Ahh

Zhang Leyi exclaimed.

But someone from outside their car window climbed up in great danger, and soon the man's upper body climbed to the roof of the car, and only two feet could be seen kicking around the window.

One goes up, then the next. Occasionally, people who climb onto the roof of the train will reach out and pull to help, and within a few moments the top of the train will be densely packed.

Zhang Leyi asked in a panic: "Why are so many people climbing the train?" ”

Zhou Hexuan said with a solemn expression: "They are all victims of the Kanto region." ”

At the beginning of the year, Shandong was plagued by heavy rains, and there was a serious drought in the summer, and then the locusts swarmed became a disaster, mixed with various wind disasters and rain disasters, and the summer wheat and autumn crops were undoubtedly wiped out, and the victims reached more than 10 million people. In the hardest-hit areas, there is no harvest, starvation is congested, and in the more serious areas, "the grass roots are eaten up and the population is cut off".

Zhou Hexuan still remembers the report of "Ta Kung Pao": "Farmers in the disaster area of Lu eat more broken felt, cotton, and leather, or commit suicide or starve to death, and 5 copper yuan can buy a woman." ”

Five copper dollars can buy a woman, five copper dollars!

Even if it is a big copper dollar of 20 Wen, five copper dollars are only more than 3 cents, which is only enough to buy a newspaper.

It is said that life is cheap in troubled times, and now that a catastrophe has struck, human life is only worth the price of a newspaper.

Nowadays, all major newspapers in the north are reporting on the disasters in Shandong and Hebei, among which Shandong is the most miserable.

Even the foreign newspapers joined in, and the report read: "The refugees waiting to be rescued in Lu Province are on a par with the situation of refugees waiting to be rescued in Europe after the war." According to a general survey, there are more than 10 million people in Shandong, accounting for about a quarter of the number of people in the province...... If there is no effective mass relief, there will inevitably be two or three million people who will starve to death. ”

A foreigner reporter went deep into the disaster area and described the disaster as follows: "The suffering of the victims is shocking. Diseases are widespread in the camps, including measles, chickenpox, pneumonia and scarlet fever. Many people died in the streets, and their bodies were exposed for days without being buried......"

And what about Zhang Zongchang, the overseer of Shandong?

He wasn't going to do disaster relief.

When Zhang Zongchang returned to Shandong from the front, Harrett Aban, a reporter for The New York Times who has lived in China for more than 20 years, immediately visited his home to discuss disaster relief.

Mr. Chang served Harrett with good food and wine, and Harrett described the dinner as "a feast full of priceless delicacies from the mountains and seas, plus French champagne and fine brandy, to the point of guilt...... He (Zhang Zongchang) was full of ambition to show me a set of Western tableware made from Belgium, which can serve 40 people at the same time. Every piece of cutlery, including the coffee cups, is cut into glass. He boasted that the full set of cutlery would cost $55,000. ”

In a report to the headquarters of the New York Times, Harrett wrote: "Shandong's problems are man-made disasters, and they are a direct result of the cunning and plundering of Zhang Zongchang, the overseer of Shandong. Using American money to help the famine in Shandong is tantamount to funding this scoundrel. If the disaster is not saved, the people of Shandong are likely to rise up and drive him away. ”

The New York Times had intended to raise millions of dollars to help Shandong with disaster relief, but when Harrett's report was sent back, the U.S. side immediately abandoned the fundraising plan.

As Hallet put it, "If the disaster is not saved, the people of Shandong are likely to rise up and drive him (Zhang Zongchang) away." Since the famine, the Red Gun Society has revolted all over Shandong, not only resisting rent and donations, but also attacking the government and the inferior gentry.

Among them, of course, there is the figure of our party, and our party has taken advantage of the famine to develop a lot of early armed forces in Shandong. Some units even survived until the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and became the backbone of the anti-Japanese resistance behind enemy lines -- except for the northeast, Shandong fought the most fierce anti-Japanese war behind enemy lines.

Shandong not only had uprisings, but also countless bandits who robbed homes and houses, and in some places even became a world of bandits, and wealthy people from wealthy families took refuge in Qingdao.

Zhang Zongchang did not care about this, imposed heavy taxes as usual, and even transferred troops back from the front to suppress the uprising. The situation was exacerbated by the fact that some of the soldiers turned into bandits, and they even robbed the rations of ordinary victims.

Zhou Hexuan was originally happy to go to the Northeast, but now he was completely disinterested, and fell asleep on the bunk all day long.

When she woke up in the morning, Zhang Leyi pulled the curtain and said, "It's almost there...... Oh my! Brother Zhou, look at it. ”

Zhou Hexuan lay behind the window and looked out, only to see that along the railway, several corpses appeared from time to time. These people all came to break into Kanto, but they died of illness and starvation on the way, and some of them were not even completely dead, lying on the ground struggling, looking at the sky helplessly with wide eyes.

"Fuck Zhang Zongchang!" Zhou Hexuan couldn't help but burst into foul language.
