Chapter 3, verse 14, inexplicable sympathy
Fourteen: Inexplicable sympathy
Lao Liang sighed and said very incomprehensibly: It is said that the army has not been able to capture Nanjing City from the 10th to the 12th.
"The officers are anxious, the soldiers are exhausted, they need to rest, they need to replenish, they need to wait for backup. It is said that the general offensive of this army has failed.
"The anxious army is making the last struggle. They gathered their strength and prepared for the final punch, why did the [***] team give up resistance at such a critical moment, why did they retreat. ”
He shook his head and said, "I really don't understand what happened to the [***] team. ”
After Lao Liang finished speaking, he turned around and shouted to the soldiers in Yue. Wave to them and let them go. The devil heard his shouts, saluted him, and went away.
Lao Liang said to Wang Mingming: "Look, everything looks like this inside the safe zone, what will happen when you get out of the safe zone, I came in from over there, you can't imagine how terrible it is over there."
"Get in the car. I'll send you where you go. He saw that Wang Mingming was still standing there and hesitating. He said, "I'll send you where you're going and you'll trust me completely." ”
He saw that Wang Mingming's leg was seriously injured, and he helped her into the car. Although Wang Mingming was suspicious of him, the sixth sense told her that this person was credible. You can get into his car.
There is indeed a difference between him and those devils. But what's the difference, they are the same person, why is he different from those devils?
She wondered about the question. It's even more unclear. She was tempted to figure it out, and she accepted his help. Her heart was still on high alert.
Lao Liang got into the car and sat down, and then handed the tea he drank to Wang Mingming. He said, "This is the water I drink, if you don't care, just drink it and refresh me and tell me where you are going?" ”
Wang Mingming did not answer him. He added, "Wherever you go, I will do my best to get you where you go." Once again, I hope you can trust me, I'm a journalist.
"I am a war correspondent sent by the base camp, and I am here, and I have the privilege of being in front of the army. Their officers don't dare to offend me, so you don't have to worry about the soldiers.
"But you have to remember that there is a difference between me and them. For the safety of you and me, don't open your mouth if you encounter trouble on the road. Everything is up to me.
The clothes you wear are worn by many young ladies and Mrs. Kuo, and the soldiers can't figure out your identity based on your appearance. If you speak, you reveal that you are Chinese. ”
Wang Mingming felt his honesty, she took the tea and drank it dry, and said coldly: "I want to go out of the door, my home is far away." I want to go home. ”
Lao Liang breathed a sigh of relief. He took out the map, looked at the car carefully, and said, "Okay, let's go to the place you said." I'll get you out of the Divine Gate safely. ”
Wang Mingming asked him tentatively: "I am not familiar with the road to Shence Gate. I only know the general direction, and from here head north. Are you sure to send me out of the door? ”
"I drove there last night, and the road was full of dead bodies," he said. The soldiers who stood guard in front of them did not let them pass, and there was still a battle there, and the fight was fierce.
"I wanted to go and take a few pictures, and they told me that my peers had gone. I passed the Xuanwu Gate and turned back. There's no problem with you going over there now, and I'd like to go there too. ”
Wang Mingming said: "I am relieved that you are familiar with the road. ”
Lao Liang said: "The road out of the safety zone from here is full of soldiers, they kill people regardless of men, women and children, and rob things when they see them." Set fires everywhere, do all kinds of evil,
"Now the city of Nanjing is full of fires and corpses everywhere. When you see those soldiers committing crimes, you will be dissatisfied, you will be angry.
"For your safety, I ask you to restrain yourself. We are not in a position to stop those crimes, and we need to remember their crimes and settle accounts with them in the future.
"Don't forget you're coming home. I'm sending you home. This is our common task, and nothing should interfere with our mission. ”
Wang Mingming nodded and said, "I have already seen their crimes, and anger and tears have been buried in my heart. I'll do as you say. Exercise restraint. ”
Lao Liang said with concern: "You were alone on the road just now, I don't understand why you didn't find a place to hide, it's too dangerous, I see you're already very tired......
"I can understand that you're in a hurry to get home, but safety is more important. What's more, when you go out of the safe zone, there are soldiers everywhere, I'm really worried about you.
"It's as if I've been living in the barbaric Middle Ages for the past two days. They are even more cruel to young women like you! You're going to die. ”
Wang Mingming drank water, and his body was much more comfortable. She asked him: "You are a reporter in the base camp and the person they trust the most, why are you not of the same mind as them?"
"They know that you are helping the Chinese and you will not die. What good is it for you that you help me, is it your compassion? ”
He said, "That's a good question." To say sympathy, it is also sympathy. Anyone who has a little conscience can't stand the situation in front of him. will sympathize with the plight of the people of Nanjing.
"These evil soldiers, one day they wake up, and their conscience will blame themselves. He will return to Nanjing to bow down to the dead and ask for forgiveness.
"In addition to sympathy, I also have an attitude towards this war, and I say that this war launched by this political axe is completely a war of aggression and an unjust war.
"I'm not alone in our opposition to this war. Under the fascist rule, many opponents of the war were persecuted. But others are still fighting.
"Two of my friends were captured and tortured, they would rather die than give in, and they swore to protect the organization from betraying their comrades. In the end, he was killed. I'll never forget them. ”
Lao Liang's eyes were full of tears of anger against the fascists, and his heart was full of pain. His resolute gaze condenses the forces of anti-fascism.
For the first time, Wang Mingming heard of a man who said that he was fighting against his own country. Although she did not understand why he sympathized with the Chinese, why he opposed this war of the political axe.
But she welcomes such a person, and if there are more people like this, the war will not be able to continue. She also sensed that he would be in danger just like his friend, and she developed an inexplicable sympathy for him.
Lao Liang said: "I shouldn't have said this to you. I shouldn't have told you this for my safety, and I shouldn't have let you know for your safety.
"On the one hand, it was your patriotic fervor just now that infected me. You don't want to live for your country. You call me admiration.
"On the other hand, I have been overwhelmed by the misdeeds of this army in Nanking in the past two days, and I want to stop their crimes, but I can't do anything about it.
"I need to vent or my spirits will break. I need to fight, another way of fighting. I don't vomit or be unhappy, I can't help but say this. ”
Lao Liang breathed a deep sigh of relief and said, "I have said so much in my heart, I am relaxed. I helped you, and I'm comfortable in my heart now. ”
Wang Mingming said: "Although I don't understand why you are doing this. But I believe you are a man of conscience. Trust that you are fighting against them. Believe that you will win.
"Please rest assured, whether you believe me or not, I would rather die than betray you like your friend."
Lao Liang said: "I believe in my vision and my judgment even more. The environment in which I live has honed my ability to recognize friends and foes, and I can't be wrong with people. I believe you. ”
Lao Liang looked at his watch and said, "It's time to eat, you still have a lot of way to go, you have to eat something." I can see you're hungry and tired. ”
Wang Mingming didn't feel hungry, but she was really tired. The legs are weak and can't be lifted, and the waist can't be straightened. Her face was hot, and she knew she was very sick and she was about to collapse.
I should have eaten something, I had breakfast at four o'clock in the morning, and I drank a few sips of water from Lao Liang just now. I didn't feel hungry, but my stomach was already empty.
I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on if I don't eat anymore.
