Thirty-two: Beauty loves heroes

Wang Mingming asked Platoon Commander Yang: "I heard that your accent is from Zhenjiang, now that Zhenjiang has fallen, I heard that the devil has killed a lot of people, do you know how the family is?" ”

The platoon commander said, "Thank you, everyone in the family is good." The troops retreated from Shanghai to Zhenjiang, and although the Nationalist army was on the defensive, the situation could no longer be controlled, and the army had to retreat.

"Where to retreat is not clear. That's a matter for the superiors. It's a matter for the decision-makers in the base camp. I didn't worry about my family, but the company commander saw that I had something on my mind, and he took the initiative to ask me to go home and have a look.

"When I returned home, the people in my family really didn't plan to leave Zhenjiang. I mobilized them to leave quickly and sent my family to the boat in northern Jiangsu, and I returned to the team with confidence. ”

The company commander said: "Platoon Commander Yang sent his family back to the unit, and the unit is accepting new recruits. In order for the recruits to master military technology as soon as possible, the troops immediately entered intensive training.

"On December 7, the troops received an order from their superiors to participate in the defense of Nanjing, and we immediately set out in full gear. Rush to a train station called Xia Shu in the west of Zhenjiang.

"We arrived at Yaohuamen Station in Nanjing on the same day after loading. We followed the foothills of the eastern Purple Mountains from Yaohua Gate to the south to the Beijing-Hangzhou National Highway.

"The troops marched along the Beijing-Hangzhou National Highway towards the Zhongshan Gate in Nanjing, and when they passed by Xiaolingwei, we saw that the barracks where we had lived in the past were gone. The Agricultural Research Institute and the surrounding houses were blown up.

"When we arrived at Weigang, we saw that Kong Xiangxi's mansion was safe and sound. Everyone laughed at the devils, and they didn't expect that the planes of Little Japan would also watch the bombing of people's heads.

"We didn't get into Nanjing City that day."

Platoon Commander Yang suddenly interrupted the company commander and said, "The correspondent is back, and the third aunt's car is back." Platoon Leader Yang meant that the third aunt could go.

The company commander said: "Third aunt, the battalion chief of staff is here today, don't go, eat here with me." We are all soldiers, and there is nothing good to eat with coarse tea and light rice. Just don't see outside. ”

After receiving the reporter from outside, the battalion chief of staff said: "The invitation of the company commander is good, and the third aunt will stay here for dinner." ”

Wang obviously knew that the company commander was saying polite words, and she didn't want to stay here, what does it look like for a woman to drink with a soldier. It's not good for the army and for yourself.

She politely declined and said, "No, I have to go back." There are still things going on at home. I've been out for too long. I feel very close to you when I meet you today.

"If the country has an army like yours, the War of Resistance will definitely be won. In the past, I thought that the army was great and sacred, and I was afraid to see a big official.

"To put it mildly, on the day of my wedding, a general came to congratulate me, and I was too scared to look at him."

Everyone laughed together.

The company commander sent Wang Mingming to the outside of the company headquarters. Wang Mingming said, "Sir, can I see how you practice the cannons?" To be honest, this is the first time I've seen a cannon. ”

The company commander agreed: "Okay, no problem." Ordinary people in the vicinity stood from a distance every day to watch the soldiers drill. I want to treat you more favorably as a good citizen.

"Today's exercise has begun, and the troops are going to have dinner, and they have to take a roll call late after the meal. Can you come tomorrow. Tomorrow I will arrange for you to sit in the most suitable place to watch. Enough for you. ”

Wang Mingming said happily: "Okay, it's decided, I will definitely come tomorrow." Thank you. ”

Wang Mingming saw Qiangzi talking to a woman very affectionately. The woman looked young and wore a new military uniform. There are no collar badges and cockades.

Wang Mingming could see that the military uniform on her body was changed from a man's military uniform. But it looks like it fits perfectly. Wang Ming looked at the company commander, meaning what was going on, who was this girl.

The company commander understood Wang Mingming's meaning and smiled and said, "This is his daughter-in-law who has never passed the door." The two have been together for more than a year. The young woman was determined to follow the strong son. She followed the troops wherever they went.

"When the troops come to Nanjing to set up defense, she must follow, we want her to go to Wuhan with the officers' families, she is unwilling to go, she must follow Qiangzi, and she can't get rid of it.

Wang Mingming said: "Beauty loves heroes." The girl has eyesight. Attaboy. ”

The company commander said: "A few days ago, the troops arrived at Yaohuamen, where the devil's plane bombed the houses and collapsed and the houses were scorched, and there were no people and no chickens and dogs barking.

The soldiers were amazed. Qiangzi was full of sadness when he saw this situation, and he must not be worried about his family. It wasn't far from his house.

"I decided to ask them to go home to see the second elder, and by the way, give his good looks to the second elder, so that they can have a good look. If the second elder has not yet fled, it is necessary to arrange for the second elder to leave Nanjing as soon as possible.

Wang Mingming smiled and said: "Company commander, you are so bold, what if Qiangzi returns home, the second elder will not let him go, and take him to escape." You're so relieved. ”

The company commander said, "You're really kidding. What kind of soldier is Qiangzi, I can't believe that he can still let him go. Now it is anti-Japanese, and many fighters have come to the army by themselves. There are no deserters in the fight against devils.

When they returned home, they learned that the second elder had fled. Qiangzi was familiar with the road, he crossed the Red Mountain from the Maigao Bridge, and walked from the Taiping Gate to the foot of the Purple Mountain to the Zhongshan Gate.

The sentries along the way did not embarrass them, and the two men rushed back to the unit overnight. It's really good. ”

The company commander shouted to Qiangzi: "First squad leader, the third aunt is leaving, and you haven't come to see the third aunt yet." ”

Qiangzi ran over and saluted and said, "Third aunt, sit down for a while." ”

The company commander said: "The third aunt will come to see the training tomorrow, and she will come tomorrow to watch your class practice." Is there a problem. ”

Qiangzi said: "Report sir, no problem, tomorrow I promise a warm reception." ”

The company commander said: "Quickly introduce your good looks to the third aunt, and ask her to accompany the third aunt tomorrow." Okay, third aunt, I won't accompany you. See you tomorrow. "The company commander is gone.

Wang Mingming said to Qiangzi: "Okay, Brother Qiangzi, if you have a good match, tell me happily, I didn't expect you to ambush me." ”

Qiangzi said embarrassedly: "The junior sister said that, where do I mean that." Isn't it without a chance. Her name is Chrysanthemum, and I'll take you to see Chrysanthemum. ”

They took a few steps towards Chrysanthemum, and Wang Mingming saw that Chrysanthemum was not tall, with short hair and a sweet round face.

Hadron exclaimed, "Chrysanthemum." Let me introduce you to you, this is my neighbor's third aunt, who came to the army today to offer condolences and is our honored guest. ”

Chrysanthemum ran over excitedly, and she said enthusiastically like an old acquaintance: "Third aunt is too much." I met your parents a few days ago in the town of Swallow Rock. They're enthusiastic.

"I listened to you just now, and what you said was really good. Those soldiers said that you are full of knowledge, not ordinary people. Why are you so good at talking, I'm so envious. ”

Wang Mingming said: "I can't speak, I am very panicked in the face of the soldiers, I just thought of that and said that, it is not good."

"Your name is Chrysanthemum, you must be born in autumn. You've been with the troops all day, and you're not a soldier at all. You have a fancy for the hadron and have eyesight. I admire you so much. ”

Chrysanthemum said to Wang Mingming seriously: "My mother handed me over to him, and he also promised my mother to marry me, he is my fiancé, and I will follow him."

"In the summer, the troops suddenly urgently assembled in Shanghai to fight devils, and the landlord heard that Qiangzi's troops had been mobilized, so she ran to tell me in a panic. You want me to go to the barracks and have a look.

"Qiangzi is my fiancé, and I can't live without him. My mother had betrothed me to a strong son, who had made a wish to my mother and promised to marry me. Hadron is my only relative.

"I asked the remaining officers of the unit where they were going, and chased the troops on two legs. There were a lot of troops on the road, and I looked for the artillery, which was the sign of the hadron troops.

"I caught up with them at a train station. I saw Qiangzi and his brothers. They are loading. I was very happy, staring at the hadron from a distance, for fear that the hadron would suddenly leave.

"The armbanded soldiers chased me away as if I were suspicious, and she hid from them. Those who were soldiers knew me, and they helped me in secret to protect me.
