Chapter 32 China's First Man Medal
After the chairman of the security zone, Rabe, and the committee member, Zhao Zhangwen, bid farewell to Long Xiaotian, they patrolled the security zone and dissuaded them when they encountered harassment by the Japanese army. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info Xiaopang and Wang Gui ate full of sausages and followed energetically. They heard that two groups of Japanese troops had entered the safety zone, and walked over quickly, but they saw that the Japanese troops were leaving empty-handed, and Long Xiaotian, who was in a mess, walked over with his head down.
Seeing Long Xiaotian breaking his hat and broken kimono, Xiaopang looked dazed, and Wang Gui smiled secretly in his heart.
Zhao Zhangwen approached Long Xiaotian and whispered in surprise, "Xiaotian, who beat you like this?" Is it the Japanese army just now? β
Long Xiaotian looked up at the teacher and said disapprerovingly, "It's okay, teacher." β
"China's No. 1 man, I'm going to take off my jewelry and make you a medal, but you should go out to the Japanese to ask for food?" Rabe said half-jokingly, half-seriously. He thinks that Long Xiaotian has not yet stepped out of the safety zone to run errands.
"I've already informed the Japanese that food will be coming in!" Long Xiaotian replied.
Rabe looked at Long Xiaotian carefully, and when he saw that he was serious, he felt incomprehensible and shrugged. Zhao Zhangwen shook his head and smiled bitterly, this student bragged so that his face was not red and his heart was not beating. Wang Gui couldn't help but sneer, and Xiaopang stared at Wang Gui and pushed Wang Gui.
Meng Xiangming, who was in the distance, ran over, took a deep look at Long Xiaotian, and said to Rabe and Zhao Zhangwen: "Hello, Mr. Chairman and Committee Member. It was this Japanese samurai who persuaded the Japanese soldiers just now. Then he saluted Long Xiaotian with his fists and left.
Rabe's eyes widened.
At this moment, a string of Japanese trucks with bags of rice and flour came from outside the safe zone. Rabe and the others hurried over.
The truck stopped, and a Japanese captain came down, took out a slip from his satchel and handed it to Rabe, saying: "Dear Mr. Rabe, I am under the order of Commander Nakajima to provide humanitarian aid to the Nanjing International Security Zone, and the first batch is 1,500 bags of rice and flour, please accept it." β
Rabe excitedly took the order, ran around the truck, and immediately signed it. Rabe said enthusiastically, "Thank you, Mr. Nakajima. Is there a second batch? What is the second batch? β
The Japanese captain smiled: "Of course there is." The second batch is winter clothing. The third batch is medicines. Our commander attaches great importance to the relations between Germany, the Allied Power of Imperial Japan, and is also willing to abide by international norms. Moreover, in the future, the Nanjing Garrison Command will continue to provide necessary materials to the security zone. Although the security zone hides a large number of enemy troops, our Empire of Japan is benevolent and generous, and is willing to provide humanitarian help. β
"Ah, great, thank God, please allow me to give you a hug!" Rabe said as he hugged the Japanese captain and gave him a veneer salute, and the messy stubble made the captain very uncomfortable.
At this time, another member of the security zone ran over and led the Japanese convoy to unload the cargo. Wherever the convoy passed, the Chinese were excitedly looking and cheering.
Xiaopang looked at Long Xiaotian and asked, "Tie Dan, did you really ask the Japanese to send it?" β
Long Xiaotian smiled proudly, noncommittal, he knew that no one would believe it.
"I knew you did it. Why don't you let the Japanese bring a truckload of sausages? You've eaten up that pack. Chubby said seriously.
Zhao Zhangwen gently patted Xiaopang's head and reprimanded: "Don't talk nonsense." If Xiaotian had that ability, he would be almost the same as Sun Dasheng. You know how to eat, and you are not afraid to break your stomach! β
Long Xiaotian is happy, the teacher's words are really right.
Rabe said sincerely: "Mr. Long Xiaotian, I can see that you have negotiated with the Japanese in order to obtain supplies, and your clothes are in tatters. I believe that your sincerity touched God, and God Almighty prompted the stubborn Japanese to deliver large quantities of supplies. I have an old goldsmith here, and I will make you a medallion with my gold ring! Oh, and before that, I'm going to give you a hug. After speaking, he hugged Long Xiaotian, and even his beard made Long Xiaotian very uncomfortable, which reminded him of why the Japanese captain was so awkward just now.
Rabe raised his left hand, the thick gold ring shone brightly, and said, "Please ask Mr. Long to wait in the office, I will be here soon!" After saying that, he left in a hurry.
Zhao Zhangwen took three students to the office and recounted their respective situations. Zhao Zhangwen's wife and daughter were all abused to death by the Japanese army. Long Xiaotian, Xiaopang and Wang Gui's families were also killed. The four teachers and students were inevitably sad for a while. Zhao Zhangwen asked Long Xiaotian why he spoke Japanese. Long Xiaotian said that he met a Japanese student who could speak Japanese outside the city, taught him Japanese and shooting, and came back to take revenge. Zhao Zhangwen fully believes that since he was a child, he felt that this student was very smart and could learn it as soon as he learned it. He repeatedly instructed Long Xiaotian not to take revenge on the Japanese soldiers if he thought that he could shoot and wield a knife, and it was very dangerous to be alone. He also said that there are special forces of the national army in Nanjing City, and if you want to take revenge, you must find them first, Yunyun. Xiao Fat's eyebrows flew and he said that the Tyrannosaurus troops were so powerful, and it was no problem for one person to fight three Japanese soldiers. Long Xiaotian agreed, without explanation, and he couldn't explain it.
More than an hour later, Rabe held something in his hand, strode into the office, and excitedly shouted: "Long Xiaotian, the medal is ready!" "Hand it to him.
Long Xiaotian took it and looked at it, and liked it very much. The medallion is made entirely of gold, the size of a wine bottle cap, in the shape of a five-pointed star, and is carved with a dragon on the front and periphery, with the dragon's head and tail meeting at the top, surrounded by a cloud pattern. There are three Chinese characters in the center: dragon Xiaotian. A line of small letters is lined up below the name: China's No. 1 man. The back of the medal reads: John Rabe, Chairman of the International Committee of the Nanjing Security Zone, in January of the 26th year of the Republic of China in Nanjing.
"Great!" Long Xiaotian couldn't put it down with the medal.
Rabe took the medal and pinned it to Long Xiaotian's chest, and said, "Come, young man, hug!" β
Long Xiaotian gently pushed him away, held his hand and said, "Thank you." β
Rabe was stunned. He is a person with a tiger's back and a waist as strong as an ox, and he didn't expect to be gently pushed away by Long Xiaotian, this power is too strong, it is simply a strong man.
Zhao Zhangwen hurriedly played a round and said, "Mr. Rabe, should we invite the first man in China to dinner?" β
"Yes, yes. I've already arranged the meal, and I've asked people to go out and buy a kimono and come back. Rabe came to his senses and said.
After a while, someone sent a set of kimonos and hats, and Long Xiaotian changed into them. Then, someone brought a few dishes, chicken, duck and fish. Rabe brought out his treasured whiskey and beer, and several people chatted while eating. It's just that Xiaopang and Wang Gui are bitter, looking at a table of good things that they can't eat, and their stomachs are already stuffed with sausages.
"Mr. Long, you said that you are pretending to be Japanese to take revenge. I dare to conclude that the Japanese are vulnerable in front of you. Excuse me, did you kill dozens of Japanese soldiers? Rabe said in a very serious and respectful tone.
Zhao Zhangwen was stunned for a moment and said: "Mr. Rabe, Xiaotian was still a high school student more than a month ago, although he has some strength, his hands and feet are agile, and he has learned to shoot guns. However, it was impossible for him to kill dozens of students. Don't encourage my students to take risks! β
Rabe giggled and said to Zhao Zhangwen: "Mr. Zhao, he is a teacher who teaches and does not know how to fight. My ancestors were German soldiers, I know. Mr. Ryu was a strong man, and it was easy to eliminate the diminutive Japanese soldiers. β
"Really?" Zhao Zhangwen looked at Long Xiaotian suspiciously.
"Well, kill a dozen of them on the sly. The little devil is indeed vulnerable in front of me. Long Xiaotian took a big sip of beer and said, thinking that this beer was really delicious.
"Young people should be humble and low-key!" Zhao Zhangwen said that he put on the shelf education of the teachers of the past.
"You can't say that!" Rabe waved his hand and said, "I have been in China for more than 30 years, especially the attack on China by little Japan, which prompted me to think about China. I think one of the reasons why the Chinese are so backward now is that Chinese culture places too much emphasis on collectivity and morality, suppressing individuality and not allowing individuals to rise to the top. And we Westerners, on the contrary, encourage individual, independent identity. In this way, when the individual develops, the collective also develops, and in the Chinese language, a rising tide lifts all boats. β
Zhao Zhangwen's face shook and he was thoughtful.
"Who preach humility? One is the weak and the waste, who do not like to see others above themselves. There is also a kind of person who is the bureaucracy, suppressing individuality, making the crowd docile, conducive to domination! Rabe continued his analysis.
Slap, Long Xiaotian slapped the table excitedly and said, "Mr. Rabe, what you said is so good. If it is a dragon, it will fly in the sky; If it is a worm, it will crouch in the grass. β
Rabe nodded appreciatively, and then leaned over to look at Long Xiaotian's men, his face gloomy.
Zhao Zhangwen leaned over, holding half of his glasses to take a closer look, not only gasped, but a big slit left on the rosewood table, which was slapped by Long Xiaotian just now. Xiaopang rubbed his hands excitedly, looking at Long Xiaotian, his eyes showing envy and jealousy. Wang Gui was a little stupid.
Rabe lowered his face and said, "Mr. Long, I don't blame you for breaking my most precious table. But I need you to give me a favor! β
"I'm sorry, Mr. Rabe, for a momentary moment. Please say, I don't think there are very many things in the world that I can't do. Long Xiaotian knew that it was exposed, so he also said it openly.
"That's right. I often reported to the FΓΌhrer and the international community about Japan's atrocities in Nanking, and that the German government and Japan were allies and favored Japan. My colleague called me and told me that he was going to transfer me back to Germany in the near future. My government may take measures against me. If I'm in trouble, I'll ask someone to inform you, Mr. Long Xiaotian. I hope you can help me. Rabe said earnestly.
"No problem. I also hope to see the West in the future. I promise you're safe and sound! Long Xiaotian readily agreed.
"Thank you." Rabe stood up and bowed respectfully.
Zhao Zhangwen pulled his face and said, "Xiaotian, why do you treat me as an outsider?" β
Long Xiaotian was puzzled, his face confused.
"Why didn't you tell me if you were so good? What else do you say about Japanese students? Even the teacher dared to deceive. Zhao Zhangwen asked.
"Teacher, I'm ......" Long Xiaotian's face became embarrassed, and he stopped talking.
"I know that Tyrannosaurus is a special force, the elite of the national army, and it is strictly forbidden to leak secrets. I said, how could you kill more than a dozen devils, it turns out that you have participated in the Tyrannosaurus army for more than a month and received special training, no wonder you are so powerful! The title of China's No. 1 man lives up to his name. Zhao Zhangwen said encouragingly.
"Yes. The teacher is a good brain, guess the identity of the iron egg! Chubby echoed.
Long Xiaotian picked up the wine glass, raised it in front of Long Xiaotian's eyes, and said, "The teacher toasts you." I am very proud that my students are part of the Tyrannosaurus Force. Please tell Shangfeng that you must kill the devil and avenge my daughter! Zhao Zhangwen said, taking a big sip of whiskey in one gulp and coughing violently. Long Xiaotian hurriedly went over and beat him on the back.
Zhao Zhangwen's eyes were confused, tears flowed down his face, and he muttered to himself: "Shu Ya, good daughter, my father can't protect you, I'm sorry for you......" and then fell asleep.
Long Xiaotian's eyes were moist. Then, he settled the teacher, put the medal in his ** pocket, said goodbye to Rabe, Xiaopang, and Wang Gui, and strode out of the office. The crowd in the safe zone became lively because of the food, and Long Xiaotian's depressed mood slowly improved.
Long Xiaotian came to the Japanese restaurant to eat, and the meat just now was not enough. After eating, he realized that there was no money in the satchel, and it was all left to Rabe, but this was not difficult for Long Xiaotian. He was close to a Japanese officer, took out his wallet with lightning speed, paid the bill, walked out of the restaurant, and then went to the Japanese restaurant in the distance to eat, eating a total of three before he felt that he was not hungry.
Walking on the street, watching the Japanese soldiers hanging their heads one by one, thinking that he had provided a large amount of food for the safety zone, Long Xiaotian was extremely happy, his eyebrows fluttered, and he walked with a small song.
On the opposite side came a convoy with a squad of soldiers, with machine guns mounted in front and behind. In the middle is a luxury Toyota sedan, and in it is the commander of the Nanjing garrison, Nakajima Imasayo. He scanned the street with a pair of eyes, and suddenly saw Long Xiaotian, his expression was shocked, and he ordered the driver: "Stop!" β
As soon as the car stopped, Nakajima couldn't wait to push the car door and strode towards Long Xiaotian.
