Just when the commander-in-chief of the Japanese army in North China sent Okamura Ninji with a group of mourning soldiers, plotting how to adjust the strategy against the troops of the Eighth Route Army in the occupied area.

On the other hand, the victory of the Japanese army, which had only suffered heavy losses in the base areas of the Eighth Route Army, was still not lost.

The base areas have seized the opportunity to expand outward, and have made considerable improvements in the construction of the base areas and the development of their equipment.

Headquarters.

Kong Jie personally arrived and reported the relevant situation to the boss and the deputy chief of staff.

Not long ago, in accordance with the instructions of the General Headquarters, Kong Jie once again tried to contact the United States, the Soviet Union, and even the national army to carry out business cooperation in military supplies and even the military industry.

Kong Jie is not bad for money now, after the establishment of Huasheng Company, covering the business of all walks of life, and taking the lead by the headquarters, the name is justified, and the wealth is getting bigger and bigger.

Considering that the military industrial base of the base units of the Eighth Route Army was really weak, when it came to business cooperation with businessmen from the United States and the Soviet Union, Kong Jie, the boss, and the deputy chief of general staff agreed after discussion.

Buying guns and ammunition from these foreign arms dealers is only a palliative and not a cure, and if we can buy back some complete production lines and production equipment, this is a long-term solution.

I thought it would be a bit difficult, and I might not be able to do it if I had money.

The result was beyond everyone's expectations, and the business cooperation between the two parties went very smoothly.

In this regard, the deputy chief of the general staff sighed: "If we are really backward, we will be beaten, it seems that we have won the battles around Huangyadong, around Taihang and Datong in various regions, not only achieved a huge military victory, but also a huge victory in politics and propaganda.

The more powerful you are, the more willing he is to help you, and the weaker you are, the more lazy he is to ignore you, and maybe he will come up and step on two feet.

It's not a sad thing, but the reality is so cruel! ”

The words of the deputy chief of the general staff can be said to be in one sentence, and everyone thinks it is true.

During this period, in order to expand the political and propaganda achievements of the victory of this winter counteroffensive, the propaganda departments of the Eighth Route Army did not hesitate.

Of course, it is more to publicize the fearless spirit of the Eighth Route Army troops who persist in the War of Resistance and are not afraid of sacrifice.

As for the economic and military development of the units and base areas of the Eighth Route Army in recent years, especially the development of the military industry, and the improvement of the equipment level, these are the cards of the Eighth Route Army, and naturally they cannot be exposed.

After all, it is relatively poor, and it is advertised that our Eighth Route Army defeated the little devils by relying on the tenacious will and tenacious belief of the soldiers, but in fact it is very lacking in equipment.

The implication is that if we have the equipment, then the Japanese invaders will not be even more concerned.

The defeat of Datong, as well as the siege of Licheng, including many subsequent battles that caused a lot of trouble, and even reporters accompanying the army took photos and took pictures.

Naturally, these things will not be known to the Japanese, but it is still very necessary to show them to the comrades inside, to encourage the morale of the army, and to show them to the businessmen of the United States and the Soviet Union, so that they can know the strength of the means of the Eighth Route Army.

Even the leaders of Yan'an will release these photos and the videos taken after taking a look, and the more they look, the happier and more excited they become.

The telegrams of commendation followed one after another.

In the telegram, Kong Jie, Li Yunlong, and Ding Wei were almost praised for themselves.

In particular, the leaders of the first team, Kong Jie, also said that they would not only let Comrade Kong Jie serve as a part-time teacher in the sixth branch of Kang Da, but also transfer him to the general school of Kang Da as a teacher when he had the opportunity in the future.

What the Anti-Japanese Military and Political University lacked was such innovative generals, independent enough, and with practical combat experience on the front line.

The joy after the victory enveloped the entire Taihang Mountain area, and soon after, the boss issued a special order to ask the troops in each base area on the front line to hold corresponding post-war cultural performances.

Not only the soldiers can participate in the party, but some villagers in the vicinity can also be invited to attend the party.

On the one hand, we should continue to publicize the great cause of the Eighth Route Army's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and give the army and the people enough confidence that the War of Resistance will eventually lead to a great victory.

On the other hand, it is also used as an entertainment activity, so that the soldiers who are nervous after the war can get a certain degree of relief and relaxation.

This series of actions soon pushed the joy of the victory of the Eighth Route Army's winter counteroffensive to a climax.

Among them, in the various base areas on the front line of the 129th Division, it was Kong Jie's detachment that held the most lively theatrical performance evening.

The soldiers who came to attend the meeting, as well as the people who knew the roots around the base area, were in an endless stream, and the large venue, which was originally considered wide, was crowded with people for a while, and it seemed a little crowded.

Fortunately, the team has produced some loudspeakers, and the literary and artistic soldiers standing on the stage can also spread the sound, otherwise the audience who are farther away will only be able to see but not hear.

Then, the comrades of the Literature and Art Department went to the talent show one by one, singing and singing, dancing and dancing, and there were also some stage plays.

When the scene of the surprise attack on Datong was performed, it was called a wonderful, and at the end, the whole venue applauded thunderously, and the people and soldiers all applauded loudly.

Then I don't know who coaxed, and I wanted Captain Kong to show a talent for everyone.

Kong Jie, who was sitting in the front row of the audience watching the show, had a dark face.

"What kind of line is this? What kind of talent do we have? ”

Kong Jie looked at the Shen reporter sitting beside him with some help.

Shen Wenyue spread her hands helplessly, saying that she couldn't help, but her face was full of smiles.

The soldiers are really enthusiastic, and Kong Jie, as the leader of the detachment, is expected to return, and if he doesn't show up, it will definitely not work.

Shen Quan, Wang Leihu, Lei Dasheng and other regiment leaders couldn't help but say anything, so they hugged Kong Jie to the stage.

Ahem –

In the thunderous applause, looking at the crowd of people under the stage, Kong Jie took the megaphone and calmed down, and when he raised his hand, the originally noisy crowd immediately quieted down.

He first laughed and scolded twice:

"Comrades, folks, you are too difficult for me.

You said that you want me Kong Jie to go to the battlefield to kill devils, then we have nothing to say, give me a ghost head knife, and I will cut off the heads of ten or eight little devils for you.

But what kind of talent do you want me to perform on stage, isn't it embarrassing to let the sow go up the tree! ”

Kong Jie said humorously, and when his voice fell, the soldiers and civilians in the audience laughed.

Shen Quan made a noise below: "Old leader, we are not embarrassed, you can just sing a song!" ”

"Singing a song?"

Kong Jie thought for a while, this was a good idea, and then asked the soldiers in the audience, "What song should you sing?" ”

"Green flowers in the army, green flowers in the army-"

The caliber of the soldiers is quite unanimous, and it seems that compared to the pure iron-blooded spirit such as the March of the Broadsword, it is the iron-blooded song of the green flower in the army mixed with the love of children, which is even more popular and touching.

Shen Quan, who was sitting on the other side of Shen Wenyue, also said with a smile: "Miss Shen, you don't know, the green flowers in this army are our old commander's forte, when the old head created this song, it once shook the entire art department.

Even the head of the Literature and Art Department of our headquarters said that if it weren't for the fact that the current war is tight on the front line, and there is still a need for talents like our old head of the regiment, he would not have to apply to the boss to keep the old head of the regiment in the Ministry of Literature and Art. ”

Shen Wenyue smiled and nodded, her face full of anticipation.

She had heard that the green flower in the army was created by Kong Jie, every time she heard the melody sound, looking at the soldiers who fought bravely on the battlefield and were not afraid of death, the young faces flashed with pure brilliance, and she was also shocked, but she had never heard the original author sing.

Kong Jie also spoke on stage at this time, "Okay, everyone said so, then I will sing a song of green flowers in the army to everyone." ”

"It's just that before I sing this song, I want to say a couple of words."

Kong Jie said, the smile on his face gradually retracted, and then said aloud in the right color:

"Comrades, as well as fathers and fellow villagers, I want to ask you, what do you think is the difference between us soldiers and ordinary people?"

With this question, the soldiers and the common people seemed to be in thought, and Kong Jie asked and replied to himself:

The answer is simple, but it doesn't really make a difference.

We soldiers came from the people, but we didn't want to see the nation humiliated and the country degraded, so we threw away our personal life and death, pinned our heads to the waistband of our trousers, put on this military uniform, and rushed to the front.

But in the final analysis, everyone is a living person, and everyone only has this precious life.

If we could, who of us would not want to end this war once and for all, and it would be better to have no more wars in the future, and live a prosperous and happy life with our wives and children? ”

His voice became relieved:

"But the current situation doesn't allow it! His little devils have all hit our doorstep, and if we want to have a long-term peace in the future, we have to have today's bloodshed and sacrifice. ”

"Only when we have shed all the blood that should be shed and finished all the battles that should be fought, can our descendants and our children truly live a peaceful and prosperous life!"

"But touch your chest and say a word of conscience, they are all born to our parents, even if we are soldiers, who is really not afraid of death? Who doesn't want to live a stable and happy life? ”

"But we are soldiers, we will hide all the tenderness and extravagance in our hearts, as long as we do not completely drive the Japanese invaders out of China for a day, our blood will never stop boiling!"

"For this reason, comrades, I would like to dedicate this green flower in the army to everyone, and I hope that comrades will forge all the strength with tenderness in their hearts and continue to persevere in this great revolutionary cause to the end!"

Bang Bang Bang –

In the midst of the thunderous applause, many soldiers directly turned red.

The seats and soldiers of the villagers who came to the meeting this time were completely dispersed.

That is to say, the people and the soldiers are sitting together, and most of the people are the age of the parents of the young soldiers, although the children who are sitting next to them may not be their own sons, but the old fathers and mothers are still hugging the children around them with tears.

Shen Wenyue's eyes were also a little red when she heard this.

These words are very simple, but they express the heartfelt words of these pure soldiers who threw their heads and spilled their blood here.

She held up her camera, found a suitable position on the side, and filmed the scene.

The sound on the stage also gradually sounded.

"The cold wind flutters and the leaves fall, and the army is a green flower......

Dear comrades-in-arms, don't miss home, don't miss your mother......

Don't tear your eyes when parting, the barracks are our warm home......

There is a good girl in my hometown, I often dream of her, and the men in the army also have love, and I am willing to accompany you to the end of the world......"

Kong Jie's singing skills may not be very good, but the initial melody of this green flower in the army came from his mouth, and it is impossible to be out of tune.

Considering his military status, his singing is particularly emotional.

The confession of every lyric, this situation, and the words he foreshadowed before, all resonated with the military and civilians, which was heartfelt and shocking.

The song was fluttering.

It not only shows the firmness of the soldiers to protect their families and defend the country, but also expresses the soldiers' thoughts about their parents' affection, their desire for love and innocence.

Under the blending of scenes, what a tear!

The young soldiers in the audience have already wet their military uniforms with tears, and many veterans are also in tears.

Shen Wenyue's shooting action also stopped, at this time, she just wanted to quietly immerse herself in this beautiful but emotional melody.

The eyes full of tenderness, staring at the only figure on the stage.

When a song of green flowers in the army was completely sung, the thunderous applause that broke out from the audience continued for a long time, until Kong Jie stepped down from the stage and returned to his seat, still echoing in the valley.

A finale military song by Captain Kong completely pushed the special atmosphere of this theatrical evening to a climax.

It was not early when the party ended, Kong Jie was about to go back with Li Wenjie and Xu Guoan, and the affairs have been busy recently, and there are many things waiting to be dealt with in the base area, and the three of them are estimated to have to work overtime when they go back.

"Kong detachment ......" a voice stopped Kong Jie.

"Miss Shen, what's the matter?" Kong Jie was puzzled.

"Can we walk together?"

Realizing the inappropriateness of the words, especially the political commissar Li Wenjie next to him, and the chief of staff Xu Guoan even more understood the meaning.

She hurriedly added: "I want to interview you with some questions in particular!" ”

Kong Jie was stunned for a moment and replied, "Can it be tomorrow?" It's not too early, and there are still a lot of things to deal with at the headquarters......"

Before Kong Jie's words were finished, Xu Guoan on the side had already shouted: "Old Kong, what are you talking about, what time is it?" It's early!

The detachment is just that little, and you don't need to be the detachment leader? ”

Li Wenjie, who immediately came back to his senses on the side, hurriedly echoed: "That's it, we won the battle this time, this propaganda is a big deal, brother, you can't delay this matter!" ”

Saying that, the two who were "embarrassed" didn't give Kong Jie a chance to come back to their senses at all, so they turned around and left Kong Jie and withdrew......
