Chapter 34 The Japanese were able to win battles not by luck

After an arduous psychological struggle, I was finally able to master the method of pricking needles and injected anti-inflammatory injections into them. As the fluid in the syringe slowly injected into the vein, I had a heart hanging from me

I handed the alcohol cotton ball to the injured old man and thanked him sincerely: "If it weren't for your support, I don't know when I would have succeeded." If you really go to the battlefield, time is life, and if you can't give timely treatment to the injured soldiers, you really don't know how to explain it.

The old man nodded at me with a satisfied face, and looked at me again: "Little girl, you can't say that. Look at all of you are the same age, but you want to run out to save the country and save the people, compared to you, I have really grown this age in vain. I think I can't really do anything big as a bad old man, and only this body can help you a little bit. When he said this, he did not have the slightest gesture of generosity, but used the most simple and sincere tone.

Compared with the growing anti-war sentiment and sacrificial spirit of the people of the whole country, the situation of the war is not so pretty. Originally, I thought that the fall of the Northeast was a historical reason, and the defeat of Lugou Bridge was caught off guard, but unexpectedly, Beiping and Tianjin, which were heavily defended, also fell one after another, so everyone's nerves were touched. Reality warns everyone in an almost cruel tone: one day, the tragedy of family destruction and death will befall you.

In addition to the dry casualty figures, the newspapers and radio stations also described the tragic situation on the battlefield with powerful words. The headquarters of the 29th Army in Nanyuan, Beiping, Shuowei, was fiercely attacked, and 5,000 lives were turned to dust in less than a day without any superiority in armaments and numbers. What's even more sad is that there were still 1,000 students in Nanyuan military training at that time, they were all college freshmen in their teens and twenties, from all over the world, and finally got admitted to the university as they wished, but they didn't expect that their lives had not yet set sail, and they died under the fire of the Japanese army.

The newspaper also distributed pictures of the Japanese shelling and bombing and the majestic march into Beiping City, as well as pictures of Chinese soldiers who suffered heavy casualties.

Dozens of years old aunts are originally the most indifferent to politics, and in their hearts, firewood, rice, oil, salt, gossip and scandals are always much more important than national events. After the Lugou Bridge Incident, their first thought was to quickly exchange the paper tickets for silver dollars and gold bars to be prepared. But this time, even the Chinese aunts finally couldn't bear it anymore. The innocent deaths of so many comrades made them feel the impermanence of life, and although the central government landed in Nanjing, Beiping is still the capital of the people's hearts. Now that the capital has fallen into the hands of the Japanese, won't China be ruined?!

The eldest aunt carefully flipped through the "Declaration" of the day, and even did not let go of the casualty list and the missing person notice in the newspaper seam and corner. After watching it for a long time, her tears flowed involuntarily. She wiped her foggy glasses and said indignantly: "What a sin, these men who are only a little old when they are soldiers die like this, and they can't even collect their bodies, I don't know how sad their parents must be." And those students, who have nothing to do with them in the war or anything, and they were killed like this, how worthless it is to die. ”

The second aunt was illiterate, so she bought a radio and kept it at home to listen to it all the time. When he heard about the atrocities committed by the Japanese, he said angrily: "If I were a man, I would go to the battlefield and fight with them." In a country as big as China, with so many people, everyone spits on a mouthful of phlegm and drowns little Japan. Therefore, the little devil should go to the eighteenth layer of hell and never turn over! ”

When they were done, they discussed the war very seriously, why did the Kuomintang, with so many well-trained troops and so many new weapons, not be able to defeat the little Japan with short arms and legs coming out of the island? As a result, various answers emerged under their inspiration. The eldest aunt said that this was because the Japanese had developed powerful secret weapons, and with these weapons, the Kuomintang's spears and cannons were no different from paper paste; The second aunt thinks that this is because the government is playing a big game. Later, no one could convince the other, so they went to their mother to judge them.

Recently, my mother has been busy making uniforms and flags for the soldiers, which is also one of the important recent tasks of the Women's Salvation Association. Because of the increasing intensity of the war, a large number of soldiers have been added to the front line, but many people are not even worthy of a complete military uniform, and can only wear straw sandals and old military uniforms to the battlefield!

After listening to the arguments of the two aunts, my mother did not scoff at their theories, but analyzed them very seriously: "The Japanese were able to win the war, and it was not just by luck, but that their military strength was indeed much better than ours. There are historical reasons for this, such as Japan has always been a ***** scarce, and the Japanese have a history of harassing the coast for hundreds of years, and the Japanese have a so-called samurai class, these people were born to fight, and naturally they are not comparable to ordinary soldiers. Since the Meiji Restoration, Japan has been working hard to develop its economy and science and technology, and by the time of the First Sino-Japanese War, the decaying Qing Dynasty was no longer their opponent. Coupled with the fact that the domestic warlords have been fighting for so many years, how can they be compared with them who came prepared? ”

The second aunt even straightened her eyes when she heard this: "Obediently knock, don't we just lose in this way?" So what to do, when they come in, we're not all done! ”

The mother smiled slightly: "It doesn't necessarily mean that we will lose, as long as the people of the whole country can unite, if international public opinion is on our side, this battle is still unknown." Her insight is really clever, because there are many people who think of her, and there is a very famous woman among them, that is the eldest of the three sisters of the Song family - Song Meiling. Mother's career reputation naturally cannot be compared with the mother of the nation, but her judgment of the international situation is very correct, and in the subsequent historical trend, the international situation and international public opinion have indeed become a key factor in guiding the war situation.

Since the news of the war came, my father had been at home for less time. There is a saying that "he wakes up earlier than a chicken and sleeps later than a dog", which can best describe his current state.
