Chapter 472 Legendary Soldier

Many years later, Xu Shaoyun, a 98-year-old former minister of national defense, chief of the general staff, and marshal of the Republic, was interviewed by Wang Li, a gold medal reporter of the People's Liberation Army Daily, at the Xishan Sanatorium.

Wang Li placed the recording box on the Xiǎo coffee table in the middle, and then asked the old marshal: "Xu Shuai, I heard that when you participated in the landing battle on Shahalan Beach, you were still a private?" ”

"Yes, on the eve of the landing on Shahalan Beach, I just celebrated my twentieth birthday on a transport ship of the US Navy." Xu Shuai, who was old but still tough, immediately laughed heartily, "As a recruit who has only been in the army for more than a year, what do you think my military rank will be?" ”

"I'm sorry, but please forgive me for my presumptuousness." Wang Li blushed slightly.

Xu Shuai waved his hand, and then said proudly: "But I have to say, our Chinese army is really capable of fighting, under the command of Yue Shuai and Deng Gong, we have fought from Nanyang to the Northeast, and then to the Far East, and finally to Tokyo, since then, we have been the strongest army in the world at that time!" ”

Wang Li said again: "Ye Shuai, our Chinese army is the strongest, so what about the air force and navy?" ”

Xu Shuai sighed with some regret and said: "The army is the strongest in China and Germany, but the navy is the strongest in the United States, as for the air force, the three countries are half a pound and eight taels, you have also seen that the current world pattern is the confrontation between the continent and the sea, but the former land hegemon Germany has collapsed, and we China have changed from a friend of the United States to an enemy." ”

"There's no way around it." Wang Li also sighed with some regret, "Just like Churchill said, there are no eternal friends in this world, only eternal interests." ”

"Yes, forever good." Xu Shuai seemed to be caught in the reminiscence of the past, and said with emotion, "But in that era, our relationship with the United States was really good, almost like our own people, of course, this is also related to the fact that the American government has asked us to hold back the Japanese in the Asian theater." ”

Wang Li nodded, and then said: "Xu Shuai, according to the Japanese war history, there was also a chā song in the landing battle on Shaalan Beach that year, and the late General Wang Dengyu once ordered more than 200 Japanese soldiers who had surrendered to be burned alive, is this true?" ”

"It's true." Wang Li's question brought Xu Shuai back to the tragic beach-grabbing landing battle that year.

…………

When Private Xu Shaoyun panted and rushed into the Japanese army's coastal fortifications, he saw that a group of heavily armed Chinese soldiers had already controlled the two-kilometer-long coastline, dozens of bunkers, bunkers, pillboxes or fortifications were destroyed, hundreds of devil soldiers were killed or burned to death, and more than 200 devil soldiers were gathered together and taken prisoner.

Xu Shaoyun noticed that the Chinese soldiers, who were loaded with guns, wore armbands on their upper arms.

The armband is very jīngchi, and the shield-shaped sky blue sè base cloth is embroidered with an eagle with wings and claws!

Xu Shaoyun was in awe, and at that time he stood up and saluted these murderous soldiers with a standard military salute, in the battle sequence of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, there are now only two troops qualified to wear armbands, one is the special operations division, the group of soldiers who kill people without blinking, and even have to retreat when they see ghosts, as for the other, that is the airborne division!

The group of airborne soldiers ignored Private Xu Shaoyun, of course, they did not have the time to talk to a private.

An officer of the Airborne Corps with the rank of captain ordered the soldiers to drive more than 200 devil prisoners of war into a depression, and immediately ordered four soldiers with weapons on their backs to occupy the commanding heights around the depression. ”

The other Japanese soldiers also shouted in Japanese and fled in all directions.

However, before the Japanese soldiers ran away, the captain of the Airborne Forces had already given the order, and the four soldiers immediately aimed their sprinklers at the depression, and in an instant, the raging flames had filled the entire depression, Xu Shaoyun swallowed a mouthful of saliva fiercely, and when he looked at it again, he saw that more than 200 devil prisoners of war were completely engulfed in the flames, and the smell of roasted ròu was already wafting in the air.

Listening to the extremely sad wails of the devil prisoners of war, as well as the curses and accusations with blood and tears, the captain of the airborne troops was unmoved, but just shouted coldly: "Remember the name of Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu's surname is Wang Dengyu, the Chinese Airborne Forces, I met your Amaterasu God when I arrived in the underworld, don't tell the wrong person!" ”

…………

"Ugh." Wang Li sighed faintly, and said with regret, "This is the cruelty of war, from ancient times to the present, war has always been accompanied by the massacre of civilians, fùnv, and the massacre of prisoners of war and other anti-human acts, I just didn't expect that even the great Chinese Expeditionary Force could not be an exception." ”

"Young man, it's really nothing." Xu Shuai waved his hand and suddenly said, "After our expeditionary force occupied Japan, there were large-scale incidents, and millions of Japanese NV people were suffered, but I want to tell you that this is not only a byproduct of war, but also the revenge of the Chinese nation, not just justice, nor anti-humanity." ”

After that, Xu Shuai specially told Wang Li: "That, don't see the newspaper for what I said, it's not harmonious." ”

Wang Li smiled slightly, and suddenly changed the topic and said: "Xu Shuai, I heard that you have seven confidantes, one more than the late legendary generalissimo Yue Weihan, is this true?" ”

The old marshal didn't answer, but just pouted at the wall behind Wang Li.

Wang Li turned around and turned around, only to see a magnified photo of the characters hanging on the wall behind her, standing in the center of the photo is Xu Shuai, Xu Shuai in the photo is young, handsome, and majestic, and his vigorous and heroic spirit is almost out of the photo, Wang Li boasts that her vision is extremely high, and she can't help but be moved, if she was born in that era, she may have been captured by Xu Shuai.

By Xu Shuai's side, there are seven young NV people clustered like flowers, these NV people are either tall and plump, or jiāoxiǎo exquisite, or blonde and blue-eyed, or black-haired and snow-skinned, but all of them are great beauties of the country, and the eyes that look at Xu Shuai are all full of affection, which can be felt across the image and time and space.

"It's a tradition." The old marshal winked at the young NV reporter and said in a humorous manner, "Almost all the senior generals from the expeditionary force have several confidants, and although the laws of New China stipulate that you can only marry one wife, you can't have multiple confidants, right?" ”

Wang Li smiled, this is not the exclusive tradition of the expeditionary force, it is also related to that damn war.

The Sino-Japanese war, which lasted for nearly ten years, caused tens of millions of young men to die on the battlefield, leaving behind tens of millions of old people and children, but also tens of millions of young people who had no one to marry.

After Yue Weihan's crossing, the influence of the CPSU and the Comintern on the CCP was almost negligible, and many of the ideological deliberate flaunting ceased to exist, at least after the founding of New China, China and the United States, which quickly entered the period of mì moon, did not feel the ideological differences between the two sides.

"Finally, ......," Wang Li finally asked, "Xu Shuai, can you evaluate Generalissimo Yue?" ”

"He changed the world! He is a legend that can never be surpassed! The old marshal's cloudy eyes suddenly brightened, and suddenly, a vigorous figure had traveled through time and space, and was walking towards him with strong steps, and the old man immediately said in a dreamy tone, "The rallying cry has sounded, I should go." ”

The voice fell, and Xu Shuai, who created another legend, passed away suddenly.

…………

"Da Du Du ......"

A loud rallying cry resounded throughout the beach.

Amid the hurried and chaotic footsteps, groups of heavily armed soldiers swarmed out of the tents and began to assemble.

It has been two days since the landing on Shah Alan Beach ended, and the 11th Division of the Chinese Expeditionary Force has already established an advance base on the beachhead, and the follow-up 2nd Infantry Division has also landed and has launched an attack formation in the direction of Kuala Lumpur.

The two Japanese wings that were trying to reinforce had already retreated back to Kuala Lumpur.

However, with the landing of the main force of the Chinese Expeditionary Force and the armored forces, the loss of Kuala Lumpur and the destruction of the Japanese 10th Division were already irreversible.

When Yue Weihan set foot on Shah Alan Beach with hundreds of Allied generals and Chinese and foreign media reporters, the officers and soldiers stationed at the beachhead had already been assembled.

An officer with the rank of second lieutenant took two steps forward, stood up to Yue Weihan, and immediately said in a jīang tone: "Report to the general seat, the 9th Company of the 113th Regiment of the Chinese Expeditionary Force has been assembled, please instruct, acting company commander, second lieutenant Xu Shaoyun!" ”

Yue Weihan returned the military salute and said solemnly: "Take a break." ”

"Yes!" Xu Shaoyun suddenly agreed, immediately turned around, and roared angrily at more than 100 officers and soldiers in the company, "Take a break!" ”

The officers and men of the whole company took a break from the ground to a moment, and when they saw the uniform movements of the Chinese officers and men, the Allied generals and media reporters who accompanied them applauded one after another, and many reporters even pressed their hands one after another, freezing the heroic posture of the Chinese people forever.

The sound of military music sounded, and Yue Weihan personally put on the Blue Sky and White Sun Medal for Lieutenant Xu Shaoyun, and Xu Shaoyun became the second expeditionary force soldier to receive this honor after Yue Weihan.

As a result, Xu Shaoyun also created another legend, becoming the fastest-promoted soldier in modern Chinese military history, and it only took three days to be promoted from private to captain!
