Chapter 193: Husband and wife
"The Baoshan Brigade has recovered Lunan?"
"And annihilated more than 20,000 puppet soldiers?"
"The local armed forces in more than a dozen counties in Lunan have all been integrated?"
The senior staff officer's voice fell, and the senior generals in the war room exploded in an instant!
Deputy Chief Bai just said that [***] urgently needs a victory to boost morale, but I didn't expect that victory is coming, and it is an unprecedented victory! Since the Qiqi Lugou Bridge Incident and the full-scale outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, [***] has been in rout, rout, and rout, and the land has been lost piece after piece, and occasionally the lost land is also a small piece.
But this time, the Baoshan Brigade recovered more than a dozen counties in Lunan by one guy!
Although in terms of the number of enemies destroyed and the results of the battle, this battle has nothing to boast about.
But if you look at it from another angle, measured from the area of the recovered territory, this is an unprecedented victory!
Although the Battle of Songhu, the Battle of Nanjing, and the Battle of Xuzhou hit the army hard, but [***] was defeated after all, Songhu, Nanjing and Xuzhou were also lost, although the battle of Lunan was less than 20,000 enemies, and most of them were puppet troops, but unlike the previous battles, this time [***] achieved a stage victory, and even recovered more than a dozen counties!
"This is an unprecedented victory!" Admiral He hurriedly said, "Is it propaganda immediately?" ”
"Publicity, we must publicize it with the greatest intensity! Let the major news agencies immediately draft press releases, let the major newspapers and periodicals typeset overnight, and the news of the restoration of Lunan must be reported in the newspaper tomorrow morning! "Chairman Jiang resolutely gave instructions, not to mention that Yue Weihan has never lied about his military exploits, even if he is lying about his military exploits this time, Chairman Chiang has decided to make a big deal of publicity.
Nothing else, because the Nationalist Axe and [***] need such a victory so badly, even if it's just a false one.
…………
At 10 a.m., General Ho held a news conference in the press briefing hall of the General Staff Headquarters, and Chairman Chiang also personally attended the press conference to answer questions raised by reporters from various countries.
Suddenly, the news of Baoshan Brigade's recovery of Lunan was like a hurricane, quickly blowing all over the world.
At noon, the sequel to Zhao Xinyi's war story -- the rebirth of the war story.
In the narrative, Zhao Xinyi told the whole [***] people in enthusiastic sentences about the situation of the Baoshan Brigade breaking through from Xuzhou, and the whole [***] people knew that even when the Baoshan Brigade encountered great difficulties and the total strength was sharply reduced to less than one-tenth of the original, the officers and men of the whole brigade did not give up hope, let alone give in.
Because, the Chinese will never give up lightly, and the Chinese nation will never be conquered!
In Zhao Xinyi's pen, the blood surname of the Chinese and the will to never give in leapt onto the page.
Although the Yue army also reacted quickly, claiming that the Baoshan Brigade had only occupied a few small remote counties, and that most of Lunan was still under the control of the Yue army, the Yue army had lost the opportunity to take the lead in this extremely crucial propaganda war, and no matter how hard they tried, they could no longer reverse the public opinion that had formed.
What Chairman Chiang and Yue Weihan most wanted to see finally happened.
The Baoshan Brigade has been killed again after disappearing for more than half a month, and is once again active in the forefront of the anti-Japanese battlefield, which has given great encouragement to the whole [***] people, starting from the Sixing Warehouse, the Baoshan Brigade has become a banner of the [***] team, and her every move has touched the heartstrings of the whole [***] people and all overseas Chinese.
The sharp sword of the Baoshan Brigade was unsheathed again after being silent for more than half a month, and once again dealt a heavy blow to the Yue army!
Suddenly, major cities across the country and overseas Chinese once again appeared to donate money and materials, and the [***] soldiers on the front line of the War of Resistance were deeply inspired by a sentence set in Zhao Xinyi's war memoir, the Chinese will never give up lightly, and the Chinese nation will never be conquered! In an instant, the battle petition written in blood flew like snowflakes to the [***] headquarters at all levels.
…………
Central Henan, Pingding Mountain.
At the regimental headquarters of a certain division of the Central Army, the commander of a colonel silently took out a black-and-white photo from his jacket pocket.
Through the dim light, you can clearly see that it is a photo of a beautiful young woman, the beautiful woman is wearing the most typical young woman costume during the Republic of China, gentle and lovely, the colonel gently stroked the beautiful woman who is smiling and silent in the photo, and the tiger can't help but shed two heroic tears in his eyes, ruthless may not be a real hero, how can a lover not be a husband?
Tears dripped down and soaked the stationery on the table.
It was a letter from home, but it was also a blood letter of farewell!
Beloved wife Jingru:
Last year, the Dragon Boat Festival was goodbye, and it was a year in a hurry, and I thought about it.
In another moment, I will personally lead the death squad to fight back against the army, and the chance of survival is really slim.
When I wrote, I was especially a person in the world, and the moment you read the letter, I was afraid that my husband was already a ghost in the underworld.
Whenever the night is quiet, often thinking of the husband and wife, the two love each other, can't help but feel like a knife, however, as a party [***] person, I should follow the martyrs, kill to repay the country, if you die in battle, fortunately!
However, there is an old mother who is old and incapable of fulfilling the filial piety of her son, and there are two young sons who are incapable of fulfilling the responsibility of raising her, so she is very sad and guilty.
If I die in battle, thou shalt marry another beloved, and thou shalt not keep the feast for me, but thou shalt do good to my son......
The colonel silently wiped away the tears on his face, and was about to write when a hurried whistle sounded outside the regiment headquarters.
The colonel immediately sighed, carefully folded the letter paper and put it in the envelope, and then retracted the black and white photo into his jacket pocket and put it in his pocket, and then stood up and resolutely walked out of the regiment headquarters.
"Brethren, come with me! the little devil of the dog! ”
The colonel took the submachine gun from the adjutant's hand, resolutely turned around, and rushed out of the trench.
Behind the colonel, five hundred officers and men suddenly rushed out of the trench with a howl like a flood that had burst the embankment.
Outside the trench, countless machine guns were firing fiercely, and the scorching bullets were roaring and shuttling on the battlefield with streamers, and the colonel had just rushed out of the trench, and a shuttle of bullets hit his right shoulder, and the colonel's strong body trembled violently, but he finally stood firm, and immediately picked up the submachine gun and fired forward violently.
The colonel, while firing fiercely, began to charge.
More and more [***] officers and soldiers rushed out of the trenches and swarmed up.
"Dada......" The hot bullet whistled.
The adjutant who stood in front of the colonel's regimental commander suddenly collapsed in a pool of blood.
The charge of the colonel's regimental commander continued, and the charge of the death squads continued.
"Boom......" a grenade landed next to the colonel, knocking him to the ground in an instant.
The lieutenant colonel's regimental deputy stepped on the colonel's body and continued to charge forward with the regimental commander's body.
The charge continued, and the death squad composed of 500 officers and men was like a sharp boning knife, which penetrated into the position of the Yue army and cut through the defense line of the Yue army.
The colonel struggled to sit up, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth like a spring, but he didn't realize it.
When he was dying, the colonel struggled to find a photo of his beloved wife from his jacket pocket, and offered the last affectionate gaze in his life.
With a sigh, two heroic tears, the colonel's hand loosened suddenly, and the photo fell.
…………
Half a month later, the colonel's letter was sent to a remote mountain village in western Jiangxi.
A beautiful young woman about thirty years old led two young boys of four or five years old to welcome her out, and with trembling hands took the envelope from the ninth uncle of the security chief, there were two letters, one was a letter sent back by the colonel, and the other was ...... Notice of Death! Seeing the inscription on the envelope of the death notice, the young woman immediately collapsed to the ground with black eyes.
"Mother, mother......" The two young children were frightened and threw themselves on their mother's face and cried.
Not far behind him, an old lady in her seventies slowly walked out of the heavy and quaint gate, looking at her daughter-in-law who collapsed on the ground and her two grandchildren who were crying, the old lady knew everything in an instant, and in an instant, two lines of muddy tears quietly slipped from the old lady's cheeks.
After a long time, the beautiful young woman slowly got up, and hugged a pair of young sons and wept silently.
Uncle Ninth shook his head and sighed for a long time, but when he turned around to leave, he was stopped by a beautiful young woman.
Turning around, the beautiful young woman had already taken out a pension bill of five thousand oceans from the envelope of the death notice and handed it over, and said quietly: "Uncle Jiu, this money should be donated to the treasury." ”
"Hanwa daughter-in-law, this can't be helped!" Uncle Jiu, the chief of the guard, shook his head and said gloomily, "Hanwa is no longer here, you are a widowed woman, you have to support the elderly, and you have to raise the young son, it is not easy, let's keep this money, besides, the current situation is difficult, and the national political axe is indeed short of money, but there is no shortage of your money." ”
"That's what the husband meant." The beautiful young woman insisted on stuffing the bill of exchange into the hands of the chief of the body, and said, "As for the mother-in-law, I will give her a pension and two children, and I will definitely raise them, I will also educate them, let them be upright Chinese, and I will also tell them that the Chinese nation will never be conquered." ”
The voice of the beautiful young woman was very soft and soft, but it revealed a sense of resoluteness.
The chief had no choice but to take the money order, then shook his head and turned around again.
