Chapter 48: The Oath

On June 1, 1939, the Little Black Blind Mountain quietly ushered in a new day.

Early in the morning, Meng Qingshan came to the playground to visit the restored Sichuan soldiers and captured miners, and the recruits who had just finished breakfast stood neatly in front of the podium made of simple wood, and nearly 3,000 people were densely packed and could not see the edge.

Standing on the stage, Meng Qingshan was very excited in his heart, these are all strong lives, although they have withstood the devastation of winter, they are still standing pines and cypresses.

"I don't want to die, I want to live!"

This is Meng Qingshan's opening remarks, although Meng Qingshan also wants to say some inspiring words, but his body is a big old man with no culture, and Meng Qingshan in his previous life was just an ordinary worker, he has never participated in any speech competition from elementary school to university, he is the same as his current personality is a stuffy gourd, in order to encourage morale before the war, he can only say it according to a passage he saw in the novel in his previous life, but he grabbed the hearts of the recruits, yes, they don't want to die, no one wants to die!

"I want to eat big pieces of meat, I want to drink big bowls of wine! I also have to wear a full body of silk and satin, and I can't spend all the gold and silver flowers at home, and I can't eat all the food in the warehouse for several lifetimes! ”

Meng Qingshan's speech continued, and the recruits' eyes were a little puzzled, I don't know that Meng Qingshan has painted a wonderful blueprint for them that they never dreamed of, who doesn't want to live such a life?

"I also want to marry a wife who is as beautiful as a flower, plant dozens of acres of land, give birth to a few big fat boys, go to the field to grow food in the morning, go home to sleep with my mother-in-law at night, and live a stable life with my wife and children on the hot kang."

The recruits burst into laughter, of course, this is also the life that every man dreams of, Li Yanping next to him heard Meng Qingshan's foul words and wanted to stop him, but was dragged by Wang Yachen, so he had to stand and prick up his ears to listen.

Meng Qingshan's words changed and began to get to the point.

"What originally belonged to us was robbed by the little devil at once, the gold and silver were robbed by the little devil, the food was also robbed by the little devil, and ten or eight beautiful girls were harmed by the little devil, but we have nothing! We don't have enough to eat, we don't have enough clothes, we don't sleep with a stone in our arms every night, we have to be careful to be cut off by the little devils, we are all men, we walk on three legs, why should they live a nourishing life, why do they bully our sisters in the land that belongs to us, why do they harm our things, why do they make us hunt down our bodies everywhere for experiments and laborers, why do they insult us as the sick men of East Asia at will, why do they slaughter our wives and children everywhere, Why did they come to our land and rob our resources, and why? ”

The recruits laughed loudly at first, and then the unwilling expressions began to appear in their eyes, perhaps they had never thought about such a question before, and they had only thought about being a soldier and eating food before. Just because they haven't thought about it doesn't mean they don't want to.

The Chinese of that era, he couldn't understand when you told him about the righteousness, because at that time, less than one percent of the people in China went to elementary school, and the rest were all big and coarse, and they only thought about the days when their wives and children were hot.

"Are you willing to live the life you are living forever?"

Meng Qingshan asked sharply.

"I don't want to!"

The recruits responded.

"So what should we do?"

The vast majority of the recruits were silent, and only a very small number of people from the Anti-Japanese Federation responded sharply: "Kill the damn!" ”

Meng Qingshan's eyes were calm, and he raised his arms and shouted: "Yes, kill his mother!" ”

"Fuck me!"

Seeing that the morale was suddenly aroused by Meng Qingshan's foul words, Wang Yachen and Li Yanping glanced at each other, and the corners of Li Yanping's mouth twitched, Is this the oath meeting? It's almost time for the anti-thief rebellion conference.

"At this moment, there are still more than 100,000 fierce Japanese Kwantung Army around us, and we must break out under heavy encirclement and lay down our base area."

"We have to quickly adapt to combat skills, collect weapons and ammunition, form new troops, and participate in the defense of the city and the battle against enemy attacks, are you willing?"

"Yes."

"Then, please ask Comrade Wang Yachen, chief of staff of the Independent Division of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation, to announce the reorganization order."

"Next, each unit will organize its personnel according to the establishment list, and rush to find their own team as soon as possible to rest and replenish."

He instructed the logistics department to pay close attention to the inventory of materials, distribute weapons and ammunition according to the establishment, and issue each person a devil's military uniform.

He urged the political departments of all regiments to do a good job in the organizational building of the party at all levels, to do a good job in the ideological work of the soldiers, not to have any worries, to work with peace of mind, and to strengthen their revolutionary convictions.

It was almost ten o'clock when this side came to an end, and Meng Qingshan, Wang Yachen, and Li Yanping hurriedly returned to the conference room to continue discussing the battle plan.
