Chapter 82: Those of Us Who Are Soldiers
(It's the third shift again, the hammer is a slow hand, and it takes two more hours a day to write the third shift, which is not easy, book friends, give it a little more effort.) )
"Zhang Haipeng, the new chief of staff of the Frontier Staff Headquarters, obeyed the order of the young marshal, and after giving the order for our soldiers to stand up to death, sacrifice their lives, and sacrifice for the country, when our hot-blooded soldiers could only stand and be killed by the Japanese in anger. Zhang Haipeng fled from Fengtian City with his subordinates, Fengtian City, and even tens of millions of people in the entire Fengtian Province, like a burden was thrown down and thrown into the hands of the Japanese, I led troops to intercept Zhang Haipeng, in Zhang Haipeng's words, he was not wrong, he just carried out the order, but he didn't want to die. This principle also works if it is changed to the above. ”
"The soldiers below us hope that they will be obedient, that they can sacrifice their lives, and that they can sacrifice for the country, but when it comes to themselves, they can't do this, and some even become deserters. Just like the current Xi of Jilin, when many officers and soldiers in Jilin were killed, he gave the same order, and now he has taken refuge in the Japanese and become a traitor. ”
Everyone present could hear the anger burning in the depths of Jiang Li's heart when he heard Jiang Li's words, for the young marshal, for the monstrous resentment of Nanjing's non-resistance to the order, yes, those who were in high positions would never be able to understand the pain of the closest comrades-in-arms around them being killed by the Japanese army under their noses.
"When I intercepted Zhang Haipeng and came back, Chief of Staff Zhao was no longer good, he was seriously injured by the artillery of the Japanese army in the Second Garrison Brigade, and I believe you all heard the artillery that night. I saw him for the last time, and more than 1,000 soldiers were killed or wounded in the Japanese shelling. This casualty could have been avoided. But because of the fear of Japan and the fear of war, it led to this evil result. ”
The next thing was much simpler, and the officers and soldiers in a fit of rage wiped out all the Japanese troops in Mukden City. In Zhang Haipeng's words, I disobeyed the military order and did enough to kill more than ten heads. ”
"Although the Japanese army in Fengtian City has been wiped out, this matter is not over, and the Japanese troops from Tieling, Gongzhuling, Liaoyang, Anshan, Lushun, Dalian, and Korea have come one after another. Our 7th Brigade and the police force under Commander Huang of the Fengtian Police Station Headquarters have been under martial law in various places, and from the 18th battle to the present, the total time that they can sleep with their eyes together does not exceed eight or nine hours. ”
"I'm not telling you this to show how hard we soldiers are and how much credit we have. It is the duty of a soldier to protect the territory and the people, and to fight against foreign captives, and there is nothing to show off. What I want to tell you is, why do we soldiers have to fight so hard, and why does the Republic of China have to compromise and seek perfection in the face of the Japanese army's large-scale invasion, invade our country's land, and kill our people. And the Republic of China can only go to the League of Nations to wag its tail and beg for mercy in the name of justice? I hope that at this time, the great powers can stand up and pull the Republic of China along. ”
"How can the Japanese army enter Mukden and the Northeast with confidence, kill people with impunity, and not worry about the sanctions of the League of Nations?"
"It's very simple, everything comes from strength, because the strength of the Republic of China is not as good as Japan, it is too far behind. Japan has the strength and is not worried about the sanctions of the League of Nations. No country will risk a war to take the Northeast from Japan and return it to the Republic of China. What country would do such a thankless job. ”
"Why is Japan so much stronger than us? In what ways? First, Japan's steel production is now 100 times that of the Republic of China. Japan can manufacture various alloy steels and build its own steelmaking equipment. The annual steel production of the Republic of China is only in the single digits of Japan. Even if the steel is smelted, the Republic of China will not be able to build Japan's large-caliber naval guns, nor will it be able to build large warships with tens of thousands of tons in motion. Even if a warship is built, the Republic of China now does not have a qualified oil refinery, and it cannot refine enough heavy oil and gasoline. Even the Republic of China did not have enough surveyors, not enough mining technology, equipment. ”
"Japan can make its own fighters and bombers, but our Republic of China can only rely on the money squeezed out to buy from the powers, knocking out one and one less. You are college students, some of you are still studying machinery, you should know how many technologies are involved in a machine, how many levels, and how long it takes to narrow the gap. ”
"The financial resources of the Republic of China are far less abundant than Japan's, and the Republic of China buys two or three planes from the great powers, and Japan can build two or three planes. The Japanese had developed medicine, and wounded soldiers could be treated to a greater extent, but the Republic of China lacked doctors, medicine, and pharmaceutical factories and equipment, and a small injury was likely to cause death and disability. In this case, how do you put our army up against the Japanese? ”
"The gap between China and Japan is not in the determination to fight, the most critical place is not in our soldiers, but in you students and professors. To train a qualified fighter who is in acceptable physical condition, he can come out in as little as one year or as long as two or three years. In case of emergency, you can also catch strong men to make up the numbers. But how many years does it take for a college student to study from junior high school to high school, you can calculate this account yourself. ”
"We fought hard with the Japanese army on the front line, eating this bite of food, wearing this clothes, there was no way, we soldiers were happy to do this. Because behind us is our own homeland, our fathers and fellow villagers, and the world that we should protect. ”
"There is a possibility of survival, and we soldiers don't want to die. We also wanted to fly our own planes, use our own country's aircraft, artillery, tanks, and warships to fight the Japanese army. I didn't want to finish the little ordnance I bought, so I used my own flesh and blood to withstand the rain of bullets from the Japanese army. Now that a large number of Japanese troops are arriving one after another, there is only one 7th Brigade in the Fengtian War of Resistance, and Commander Huang's police station corps, adding up to more than 10,000 people, and our troops are seriously insufficient. ”
"We need reinforcements as soldiers, but we don't need you, the Northeast has a population of 30 million, there are more than 400,000 troops, if needed, the army can be expanded to more at any time, but over the years, only you are less than 4,000 college students, you are the hope to continue the war of resistance in the future, and it is also the cornerstone of rebuilding the country and the local after the victory of the war of resistance. Those of us who are soldiers don't know anything but to fight. ”
"You have your own position, which is to learn the best knowledge, technology. Let us soldiers have better weapons and better medicine for the wounded. By not letting your students go to war, you don't want to cut off the last hope. I hope that our efforts today can be exchanged for your success. If I die in battle with my subordinates, you can also change the fate of the Republic of China soldiers in the future. Gentlemen, please! ”
After speaking, Jiang Li bowed to the students.
Liu Xianzhou, Feng Yong, all the professors and teachers saluted Jiang Li one after another, as well as the thousands of students in the audience with red-eyed eyes and silent birds, some of whom even couldn't cry silently, for those soldiers who died under the swords and guns of the Japanese army, and for the 7th Brigade, which was fighting alone at this time and still fought to the death, as well as the police station corps. In the absence of backup, these soldiers knew that they would die, but they also wanted to save them, the students, the crystallization of the achievements of more than ten years of education in Northeast China. But they, the students, are powerless to make any difference to the current situation.
