Chapter Thirty-Four: Sister and Brother in the Dangerous City

In this battle, the Japanese army suffered unprecedented casualties.

Not just on the front of the Sichuan army, but on the entire Songhu battlefield.

The Japanese military department never expected that they used tens of thousands of troops to drive the more than 400,000 Northeast troops in the northeast into the Guannei, and now in Shanghai, they used nearly ten times the number of troops, and they are still in Shanghai for more than two months!

According to the plan, they will occupy most of China in three months!

As a result, they began to reflect and reformulate their battle plans, dividing their troops into three routes.

In addition to the part that remained in the quagmire of war, another unit detoured from the sea to Jinshan and landed, forming a situation of division and encirclement of the defenders who fought bloody battles along the Shanghai line!

The other team went to Hangzhou Bay to land and take Nanjing!

Shanghai has become the meat filling in the dumplings.

For three months, the sound of artillery has not stopped, and the wounded soldiers, tired soldiers, have come and gone non-stop, and there are fewer and fewer of them.

The people of Shanghai finally realized that this city could not be defended!

Many ordinary people began to pack up their belongings and embarked on a journey to escape, and people were panicked.

It was only then that they discovered that China was so big, and they didn't know that it was the safest place and where they could settle down and live.

In a deep alley in Shanghai, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy in a student uniform ran through the alley, his fists clenched tightly, as if he was ready to swing his fist at any moment.

He pushed open the door in front of a large courtyard, and it was empty.

The dozen or twenty servants who used to take care of the courtyard and serve their families have now been dismissed, because their own families are also about to flee.

This is his home, he was born and raised here, and he doesn't want to leave.

However, the Japanese came.

"Su Yan, I'm leaving tomorrow, and you don't know how to help the family pack up and go out for a run!"

The woman dressed in silk has a noble expression, and at first glance she is a woman who has been born in a large family since she was a child and has been pampered.

"This is our own country, our own land!"

The young man called Su Yan screamed, and the green tendons on his neck jumped: "The Northeast is occupied by the Japanese, and now it is Shanghai, we know how to escape, but one day in the future, if the Japanese occupy all of China, can we still escape there?" ”

"You child, how can you talk to your mother?"

A man wearing a long robe with gold-rimmed glasses walked out and reprimanded: "Our family is a businessman, we are only in charge of business and business, and we can pay for such things as war, and it is their duty to defend the country and the people by those who are soldiers!" ”

"The rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband, father!" Su Yan shouted sadly.

"Bastard, you dare to yell at me, I think you're itchy with your skin, right? Get on my knees! ”

The man was suddenly angry, Lao Tzu has always been reasonable to his son, so he will take a stick throughout the ages, and filial piety will be born under the stick, whether it is a poor person or a large family, this is the general rule of educating children.

Lao Tzu beats his son, there is no place to reason.

But this time, Su Yan was obviously not ready to give in, he stood with his neck crossed, looking like he had to break the relationship with Lao Tzu and this country, at this time, it was definitely not a matter of paying money.

"Dad, don't hit your brother"

The beautiful girl ran out, protected Su Yan behind her, and said, "My brother is just getting older, and when he grows older, he will be able to understand your hard work!" ”

The woman also said: "Yes, master, Yan'er is at this age, it is the time to rebel, it is not enough to just fight, you still have to be reasonable!" ”

The man snorted and said, "You kid, when your sister is so sensible, I will be so worried about it and I will be angry with you sooner or later!" "I went away in a rage.

"Su Ya, get your brother something to eat, I've been out for a day, and I'm not afraid of being hungry, and I'm not afraid of accidents, you are optimistic about your brother, and he won't be allowed to go out again, you know?" The woman said, and then chased after her angry husband.

"Are you hungry or not, my sister will cook noodles for you to eat!"

The girl Su Ya said, patted the plaster on Su Yan's back dotingly and said, "Went out to march again?" Can you scare away the devils by marching like this? ”

"Sister, I'm sixteen years old, I'm not a child anymore!"

Su Yan said dissatisfied, then became excited again, and lowered his voice: "We also know that this march is not a way, and we are ready to use practical actions to support the resistance against Japan!" ”

"What do you want to do? You are the male of our Su family's ninth generation, if you have three games and two shorts, our Su family will be the last one."

Su Ya exclaimed: "Don't look at your father who is usually fierce to you, but behind his back, he always praises you, saying that you are exactly the same as when he was young."

Su Yan pouted and said, "I've never heard him praise me, he always beats me!" ”

"Haha, fool, it's also for your good that Dad beats you, our Su family has such a big family business, and it will all be on your fingers in the future!" Su Ya said, and then pulled him into the back room, and after a short time, he came out with a bowl of noodles with two poached eggs.

Su Yan was really hungry, and after devouring two bites, he choked up again: "I heard that the Sichuan army on the other side of Dachang Town is fighting with a hungry stomach, and the food in the rear can't be delivered at all, and the people will be bombed once they send it, and no one has sent food for many days."

As he spoke, he began to cry, and big tears dripped into the bowl, and he couldn't eat it anymore.

"Hey, it's pitiful."

Su Ya's eyes were red and said: "But this is fate, they have their lives, we have ours"

"Sister, do you know how we are going to support the anti-Japanese resistance with practical actions?"

Su Yan wiped a handful of tears and said: "The student representative found President Du Yuesheng Du, President Du promised to pay for the purchase of grain, rice and meat to make meals, let's send it to the front line tonight Sister, you let me go out, I will definitely rush back before our family moves tomorrow morning!" ”

"This is not good, absolutely not!" Su Ya said.

"Sister, I beg you!"

Su Yan said: "Even Du Yuesheng, a big hooligan, knows that he wants to resist Japan, can I still be inferior to him?" Besides, I've promised my classmates, if I don't have me, what do people think of me? Sister, I swear to you, as long as I go this time, I will also contribute to the country, and I will never mess around in the future, study with peace of mind, and then take over the family business."

"If something happens to you, your father and mother will die of sadness, how can I explain it to them?" Su Ya was about to cry in a hurry.

Su Yan said: "But if I don't go, I will regret it for the rest of my life, sister, I beg you, okay?" ”

Su Ya hesitated, she loved this younger brother the most since she was a child, and she knew him better, if he couldn't go this time, he would make more moths in the future.

"Be sure to be safe, and be sure to come back before dawn," Su Ya said.

Su Yan nodded fiercely, and then slammed the noodles, and only when he was full did he have the strength.
