Chapter 2 Heading North! North! (Above)

"I'd rather be a ghost who died in war than a slave to the country", "Down with Japanese imperialism", "Regain the lost territory and return our rivers and mountains"......

On the streets of Nanchang, the people's spontaneous anti-Japanese march is ongoing, with the surging crowd of people, the evacuation of the police along the way and the traffic along the way, since the 7.7 incident, He Jianye has instigated the military commanders of the Political Training Office of the Third Division to go to the street to publicize the brutality of the Japanese army, and post a large number of photos along the street, with a simple explanation, the Japanese tank pressed over the ancestral grave, the steel gun provoked the baby in the arms, and the unarmed women from the top to the 80 to the age of 8 were helplessly attacked by the Japanese army**, bayonets pierced through the people of the villages, Under the stiff faces of the people of the Northeast were deep worry, and the rich squires knelt in fear under the iron hooves of the Japanese army....... The streets through which the procession marched were posted with pictures that reflected the atrocities of the Japanese army.......

At the gate of the barracks, the guards nervously set up a cordon and informed the division commander Li Yutang, who came to the gate of the barracks and shouted to the crowd with a loudspeaker.

"Fathers and fellow villagers, I know everyone's feelings, and the mood of all the officers and soldiers of the Third Division of our National Revolutionary Army is the same, I can't wait to rush to the battlefield to fight against the Japanese invaders, but we must obey the overall command of the National Government, I promise you that once the military order is issued, our Third Division will never live up to the expectations of our fathers and fellow villagers, not to mention victory, at least at the expense of this life, it is guaranteed to kill the enemy bravely, and the horse leather shroud! If I, Li Yutang, go north to resist the Japanese, I will never embarrass my father and fellow villagers, and I will never let go of a little devil, so that they will have their lives to come, and they will not have their lives to return to the East! Let's all go back! All the officers and men of the Third Division of the National Revolutionary Army are grateful for the encouragement of our fathers and fellow villagers! Thank you! ”

After Li Yutang finished speaking, he watched the crowd go away in the sound of slogans, touched the beads of sweat on his head, shook his head and entered the barracks. The guard shouted,

"Speak!" Li Yutang said,

"There was another group of people at the door, followed by many carts; It seems that I am here to condole! The guard said,

"Oh! This is not to be neglected! Inform the heads of each regiment to greet them at the door! After Li Yutang finished speaking, he sorted out his military uniform, strode towards the gate of the barracks, and when he walked to the door, he found that the commanders of the brigades and regiments had already arrived.

Hundreds of wooden trailers were parked at the entrance of the barracks of the Third Division, and the neighing of mules and horses came and went, like a cattle and horse market. An old man in the lead stepped forward and said to Li Yutang, "Master Li, on behalf of the Nanchang guilds and merchants, I will offer some condolences to the third division that is about to go north to resist Japan, it is not a respect, please understand!" As he spoke, he handed Li Yutang a list, He Jianye opened it, and read it in public, "The Nanchang guild donated anti-Japanese military supplies as follows: two carts of cotton cloth, 5 carts of cloth shoes, 10 carts of various grains, two carts of poultry such as chickens and ducks, and a total of 2 carts of eggs and duck eggs....... Prepare 1,000 strong men for the smooth north field of the third division to transport military supplies along the way, and wait for the summons of Division Commander Li at any time! After Li Yutang finished reading, he closed the list and shouted loudly, "All of them, stand up!" Salute! "All the people salute and bow in front of the elderly and the laborers who are transporting the supplies! Li Yutang said with tears in his eyes: "Thank you!" Thank you Nanchang folks for your love! But my third division has no work! It's really shameless to enjoy such condolences, please take it back from the old man! When we live up to our mission and the horse leather shroud, if the Nanchang parents still remember that we have made contributions to the anti-Japanese resistance, a glass of hometown water is enough! ”

"Division Commander Li, this is the intention of my Nanchang father, although we can't kill the enemy on the battlefield, but this is also our intention, I hope that the soldiers can fight bravely to kill the enemy when they are full of food and drink, please be sure to accept it, and the old man will return to the city with people and cars." After saying that, the old man didn't care, the wooden cart was gone, and he turned around and left with the cattle and the laborers who drove the cart. As the old man took people away, He Jianye found that after the crowd in front of him, a group of more than 10 men and women in the rear led dozens of carts towards the gate of the barracks. He Jianye, who was standing in the back, didn't realize that his family had arrived.

"Division Commander Li, Qingjiang He Jiate came for this northward war of resistance, the contemptible person was born in Huangpu, for the war of resistance, he did not hesitate to go bankrupt, and specially funded dozens of vehicles of division commander Li's military funds, I hope that division commander Li will not be disgusted!" He Fuchu said slowly,

"Brother He said that, look here, we have received a lot of condolences recently! What a shame! Brother He, rest assured, I will live up to the principal's teachings, fight bravely to kill the enemy, you see your brother, and bring the things back! Li Yutang smiled bitterly,

"Senior Commander Li, you'd better see what it is, these things almost bankrupted the He family! Check it out! He Fuchu motioned for Li Yutang to follow him to take a look, and then shouted to the workers behind him, "Unpack!" ”

Li Yutang followed He Fuchu slowly to the cart, and when he approached the cart, there was a smell of gun oil, and He Fuchu introduced next to him, "All the arms purchased by the He family from overseas this time have been donated to Division Commander Li, total: 500 Mauser C96 pistols and 50,000 bullets; 2,000 Mauser rifles of the 1924 type, 50,000 rounds of ammunition; 20 ZB-26 light machine guns with 200,000 rounds of ammunition; Two Makqin heavy machine guns with 200,000 rounds of ammunition. Master Li, what's the matter, the He family's intention is clear enough! ”

"Thank you Brother He for your great help! I took it! Brother He, rest assured, this time I will go north, I will fight the blood of the Whampoa soldiers! Li Yutang said with a cut of iron,

"He Jianye, your family is here, come here! I will approve your leave today, and I will report back to the camp tomorrow morning! Li Yutang was in a good mood.

"Commander, don't use it! I'll just say a few words to my eldest brother! He Jianye stepped forward and said to Li Yutang, not wanting to affect everyone's preparation progress because of his family affairs.

"You can come here," He Fuchu shouted behind him,

"Big brother" He Jianye walked up to He Fuchu and shouted,

"Second brother, the ammunition you want, 1,000 Mauser C96 pistols and 100,000 bullets; 500 Mauser rifles of the 1924 type, 100,000 rounds of ammunition; 30 ZB-26 light machine guns with 500,000 rounds of ammunition; Two Makqin heavy machine guns and 500,000 rounds of ammunition are ready, and in the warehouse at the railway station, you go to the warehouse to get it when you set off with this. He Fuchu said,

"Second son" At this time, He Lin's voice sounded in He Jianye's ears, and He Jianye, who heard this voice and turned around, saw his mother, Wang Yue, Xiaoyi, Xiaolian, Qingya, Qiao Xiang, Joey, and the dog, the big cow, and the big girl in their mother's arms...... Basically, most of the people from the Qingjiang Hefu Mansion came......

"Mother, why are you here? And you, why did you still bring the child out, the road is far and bumpy, and you are not afraid that the child will catch a cold! He Jianye asked strangely,
