I dare to bet on the gods, I don't think I think I think I think I have to think too much, the cruelty and ambition of the Japanese have been revealed at the very beginning of the war, and the countless bloody facts have told me that they have little patience to maintain this image of hypocrisy, and as the war progresses, their true colors will soon be revealed. At that time, the Japanese no longer need to throw rat traps, and the doom of the Chinese will follow.

Yangshupu is close to the Huangpu River, and the sound of rolling cannons on the river fills everyone's eardrums pervasively, so people have said that the area near the Huangpu River is the most dangerous area, and once the Japanese land on the shore, they will "throw the people into the Huangpu River to feed the fish". For Shanghainese, "throwing fish into the Huangpu River" is a joke, but it is a common method used by the Qinghong Gang, which is not only economical, but also able to manage the survival of the bones and bones.

As a result, chaos abounded on the streets, and some spare money had already changed their ways to find a way out. Like us, there are those who fled to the concession, and even more who fled to the countryside with their large bags and their families to take refuge. Of course, there are also very good people, who have gotten a ticket for an ocean ship or a cargo plane, and escaped the war in the fastest way.

But the vast majority of people, that is, the poor people at the bottom of society, they have no way out, they have no choice but to stay where they are and resign themselves to their fate. In the street shrouded in panic and panic, a young mother carried her child and moved a small bamboo bench and sat casually outside the door to "enjoy the cool breeze". She patted the child tenderly, telling him that the rumbling outside was thunder, and that the scene of people on their backs in the street was because people were rushing home to escape the rain. And the children looked no more than three or four years old, with innocent eyes and a foolish smile, unaware that a great calamity was about to befall them.

I couldn't bear to turn my head away, so my mother took advantage of the situation and hugged me in her arms: "It's okay, it's okay, your father and I will never let you suffer any harm." ”

And that night, my grandfather praised my father for the first time, thinking that if he hadn't had the foresight, he would still have nothing to rent to this small single-family building in the French Concession, and the whole family would still be frightened in the old house in Yangshupu.

He also talked about the second brother who had "caused a big disaster", saying that the current situation is so chaotic, and the days are passing day by day, and he doesn't know where the way out is. Qizhi, this kid can be regarded as lucky, and he was sent to the United States early. From now on, no matter how well he mixes in a foreign country, the bloodline of the Zhu family has finally been preserved, and he can be regarded as worthy of his ancestors. As for whether he returns to his hometown in fine clothes, it depends on his creation and conscience.

I was very glad to think that fortunately, the second brother left early, otherwise he would have to learn to overshoot the pen from Rong. And according to his personality, it is reluctant to be admitted to the military academy and stay in the command headquarters as an operational staff officer. Maybe he really brought the tough guy style who is not afraid of death to the extreme, and volunteered to go to the front line to fight an encounter. I looked back and saw the curvature of the corners of my mother's mouth, and finally realized that there were many people who thought the same way as me.

Ever since the Japanese had been fighting all the way to Shanghai, the operation of various government departments had begun to become chaotic. My father was busy all day, and although he didn't say anything, he could guess that he was busy transferring and destroying important government records. If the classified documents fell into the hands of the Japanese, it would further encourage their overwhelming attack.

The war is imminent, and the public procuratorate and law seem to be in a state of paralysis. The officials and their wives were busy dragging their families to respond to the call to evacuate to Chongqing, and the little secretaries who had just joined the company like the eldest brother were busy queuing up for their bosses to go through various procedures or packing and sorting out various harvest supplies every day.

The eldest brother in my impression, although he is not very old, has had a general style of "Mount Tai collapsed in front and the color remains unchanged" since he was a child, and this time it is the same. When most of the people who were nervous and nervous came, his calmness seemed very unusual. In the past two days, he took time off to arrange for his family to handle the move, but he didn't talk much, because there was so much silence that everyone naturally ignored it as if it were air.

When everyone returned to their respective rooms and was busy unpacking and tidying up, I finally seized the opportunity to be alone with my eldest brother. I didn't bother to beat around the bush, so I asked him straightforwardly, "Big brother, are you planning some big action?" ”

The eldest brother was stunned by my question: "What do you mean?" ”

I was incoherent and chattered like a little fan seeing an idol: "Hey, what are you pretending to be in front of me, I won't betray you." You don't know that every time you are so silent, it means that the next moment is about to explode. What is 'Taoguang Yang', 'lying on salary and tasting guts', these words are written on your face, and you can't rely on it. ”

The eldest brother was weak-hearted, so he subconsciously touched his face: "Am I as powerful as you said, it's just that the current battle situation is becoming more and more unfavorable for us, and I have nothing to comfort everyone." ”

I struck while the iron was hot and gently bumped him on the shoulder: "You don't care about him, I promise to keep it a secret for you, you can tell him." ”

So, in the afternoon sun, in the silence surrounded by noise, my eldest brother told me about his plans. He said that he thought that he could stick to his ideals in troubled times, but now it seems to be a fool's dream. He thought about it, but he had studied for a few years more than others, and although he couldn't become a big man, it was not difficult to get a civilian job in the army.

I held my chin that was about to be shocked: "Big brother, you really don't want to join the army, have you thought about it?" ”

The eldest brother nodded firmly: "I think about it." His tone and demeanor were as gentle as usual, but if you look closely, you will find that the resolute light reflected in his eyes has an innate standard military temperament. Temperament is actually very mysterious, unlike other things that can have a standard or reference. The so-called military temperament also varies from person to person, and what must be said is the strong sense of "those who commit strong men will be punished even if they are far away".

When the eldest brother saw my ignorant look, he pretended to sigh in disappointment: "Ahhhh I heard that you joined the field ambulance corps, how is it, are you still used to it? ”

I nodded seriously and excitedly: "Of course, the tiger father has no dog girl." I heard the regiment commander say that when the war is in full swing, it will be time for us to appear. ”

"You shouldn't have to go to war, right?"

"No, when there are not enough frontline medical staff, it will be our turn."
