Jing Xing's heart is understandable, but the army has always been like this. As soon as we succeed and the bones are dry, we just need to live up to this great youth! Mu Dan raised his wine glass, walked to the window like a poet in ancient times, and said to himself: "Life should be a masterpiece, and death should be a ghost!" ”

With that, he took his glass and drank it down.

The glass of wine nearly poured him down, and when he was done, he could barely stand still. In the past year or so, he has seen too many people and things that can be sung and cried, and he has also experienced too many hateful and hateful things and people.

A male classmate stepped forward to pick up Mu Dan, who was almost crooked, and Mu Dan smiled and said: "Brother Jing Xing, you don't have to care about fame and fortune, where will the past and the present be?" A pile of grass is gone! You and I are responsible and loyal! ”

"Well said!" Zhu Jingxing also changed his frustration just now, and he talked to Huang Zhengzhong about his brother: "You don't know, the person I admire the most is your brother." Not only is he calm and wise, but I am honored to be able to lead the way and fight with him! I am also honored to have such a chief! ”

Everyone was a little drunk, and Mu Dan recited aloud the famous poem that circulated among the students of Southwest Associated University:

"There are not enough weapons, and we take our blood / without warm comfort, and take our blood / blood / blood is our only remaining / free land to be irrigated with blood! You, I, no one has forgotten! ”

At the end of the recitation, several people resonated in unison, and Mr. Wen Yiduo was also drunk, he clapped his hands heartily and smiled: "I have such a student, fortunately!" It is fortunate that there are such young people in China! Ha ha! ”

As he spoke, he stood up dizzily and said, "Zhengzhong, help me to the door and sit down, I want to bake the sun!" ”

Kunming City is a city in the plateau area, although the temperature is not low in winter, but there is also some cold, the sun in winter is hot, like a big stove, sitting under the sun is very warm, so people say that basking in the sun is baking the sun.

Huang Zhengzhong smiled, "Teacher, the sun is about to set!" ”

Wen Yiduo looked out the window, the sky should be darkened, let alone the sun, I'm afraid the moon will come out in a while, he patted his forehead and smiled: "Oh, I see, I see." ”

After eating and drinking, several classmates cleaned up the room for the teacher, and finally waited for the teacher to sleep, said goodbye to the teacher, and left one by one.

Mu Dan, Zhu Jingxing and others wanted to go back to the barracks, while Huang Zhengzhong and Xue Shumin and other classmates wanted to go back to school, and everyone agreed to meet again the next day.

Thus, the reunion at the teacher's house came to an end.

They thought that what Huang Zhengzhong said at the banquet that "I want to report to Nanjing" was just a momentary angry remark, and no one took it to heart, but they never expected that early the next morning, Huang Zhengzhong really asked for leave and flew back to Nanjing on a military plane.

When they heard this, everyone was amazed.

Huang Zhengzhong returned to Nanjing specifically for this matter, and even did not hesitate to call Nanjing, so that the military plane flying from Kunming to Nanjing specially took him.

He didn't want to be in the limelight, and he didn't want his classmates to stand out. On the contrary, most of his classmates were honored because they were intellectuals in the army.

This time, he wanted to fight for those junior officers and many officers and soldiers from the rural and urban backgrounds.

Huang Zhengzhong in the past few years in college, followed the drama club and classmates to a lot of places, but also met a lot of people, the life at the bottom shocked him, he clearly remembered that there is a village in western Yunnan, most of the young men in the village went to serve as soldiers, some are in their thirties, some are only sixteen or seventeen years old......

Only women, the elderly, and children are left in the village, and their lives depend on a meager income, and it is not uncommon for them to be poor.

He remembered seeing a gloomy old man in western Yunnan, squatting in the corner of the house with an arm-thick hookah to roast the sun, smoking the smoke in his mouth, sometimes a puff coming out of his nostrils, sometimes swallowing it completely.

"My son went to fight the Jap! Two of the sons died, and one of them had no news, so he probably ran away. In my life, I don't think anyone will give me a flag! ”

Huang Zhengzhong comforted him, "Don't be afraid, there is a country!" ”

"Ball!" The old man snorted coldly, his words full of disdain and curses.

He still vividly remembered the last disdain and curse of the old man, and he didn't know how many more such old men there were, and they deserved the respect and preferential treatment they deserved.

For this reason, Huang Zhengzhong did not hesitate to return to Nanjing, and did not hesitate to risk being scolded by his father to find his father, and to tell him everything he saw and heard here.

Soon after the plane landed in Nanjing, Huang Zhengzhong asked for a car and went directly to the building of the Central Committee.

When the doorman stopped him, he didn't hang up the phone to his father, but went directly to the fourteenth boy from the security station.

He grew up watching fourteen boys, and the relationship between the two is extraordinary, so it is natural to look for him if there is anything. What's more, Huang Ke's phone is not easy to connect, it is generally transferred to the secretary's desk first, and then transferred from the secretary's desk to the attendant's room.

After finding Fourteen Tsai, it is equivalent to finding Huang Ke. Coincidentally, Huang Ke didn't go out today, and worked in the building all morning, and Fourteen Tsai personally came down to bring him in, poured him a cup of tea, and let him sit there and wait.

He said, "The Commander is in a meeting right now, and when the meeting is over, I'll go and tell him about your coming." ”

Huang Zhengzhong thanked him and sat in the living room and waited.

After waiting for about an hour, Fourteen Tsai came and told him to follow him.

It didn't take long to lead him to Huang Ke's office.

After the door closed, Huang Zhengzhong walked towards his father, but he didn't expect that his brother Huang Zheng was also sitting in the office.

After the Burma Campaign, Huang Zheng returned to Nanjing to receive his commendation.

In this battle, he was awarded a number of high honorary medals such as the "Warrior Medal and the National Medal" for his bravery and decisiveness, and his military rank was directly promoted from the previous colonel to major general.

The two brothers met unexpectedly, which surprised both of them and even Huang Ke. But there was no time to greet him, so Huang Ke asked, "Zhengzhong, what are you doing when you come back and find my office?" ”

Huang Zhengzhong paused and said, "Father, I came this time because I heard something and wanted to delay you for five minutes to tell you. ”

"Oh? What's the matter? Huang Ke stopped the pen in his hand.

Huang Zhengzhong then told a newspaper about the list of awards from China and the United States, as well as the grassroots officers and soldiers he had met.

After hearing this, Huang Ke closed the cap of the pen, shook his head and said, "If you two brothers want to say that there was no discussion in advance, I think you don't believe it even if you are fools." ”

"Brother, are you too?" Huang Zhengzhong thought it was incredible.

Huang Zheng nodded and said, "I'm also here to report this matter to my father." ”

"Father, what do you mean......" Huang Zhengzhong asked.

"You shouldn't ask about this, you all go back." After speaking, he closed the cap of his pen and said, "Tell your mother in the evening that I will go home for dinner." ”

……

When the Huang Zheng brothers heard what their father said, they had no choice but to go back.

They did not know that their words had played a role, and the next day, the ceremony of awarding and awarding the Burma campaign was held as usual in the Zhongshan Hall of the Central Committee building.

There are no changes to the list of people who will be awarded this time.

A total of more than a dozen officers were commended, including officers and men of the expeditionary force, such as Sun Liren, Dai Anlan, and Liu Fangwu, as well as Fu Guoqiang of the Air Force and Chennault of the 14th Air Force of the United States.

The ceremony was divided into two sections, one was the awarding of medals and the other was the ceremony of awarding military ranks. Huang Ke presided over the award ceremony, and Minister of War Jiang Zhongzheng presided over the award ceremony.

The two ceremonies were carried out one after another, the first was the commendation ceremony, and Huang Ke personally wore the medal for every officer and soldier who won the medal. When he wore the national medal for Huang Zheng, Huang Zheng straightened his waist and accepted the commendation given to him by his father.

"Well done!" After Huang Ke put on the medal for him, he patted him on the shoulder, and Huang Zheng knew that this was his father's affirmation of himself.

Huang Ke really couldn't help it, because Huang Zheng didn't disappoint him, everything he did was even beyond his imagination, this kid has now grown into an excellent commander and combatant,

Then, the camera of the magnesium lamp clicked and flickered, and Huang Zhengli stood up straight with a solemn expression.

After the award ceremony, the award ceremony was followed by a brief speech by Army Minister Chiang Chung-cheng in a thick Fenghua accent, followed by the awarding of honors to the representatives of the military who had distinguished themselves in the battle.

Although the ceremony is tedious, there are some parts that cannot be omitted. After all, this is the first great victory since the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and it is also the first great victory of the Chinese army to go abroad since the First Sino-Japanese War.

After the ceremony, a dinner was held in the evening for all the officers and soldiers to be honored in a large conference room not far away. Huang Ke and other members of the Central Committee attended the meeting, and Jiang Zhongzheng, He Yingqin, and other high-ranking military leaders also attended the meeting.

This is a high-level dinner, although the dishes are not luxurious, but each dish is carefully cooked, the round table, clean tablecloth, and with the elaborate dishes, it is also considered the standard of the state banquet.

It's just that Zhu Jingxing ate something bad at this meal.
