Zhang Anping was taught to be a man by his cousin.

From the moment he issued the order to chase and kill, he was actually ready to be imprisoned.

As a result, Director Dai said that the secret service gave him a full cover for this matter and only gave him the punishment he deserved.

He thought he was probably being demoted or something.

As a result, when he came out of the field hospital full of wounded soldiers, he was imprisoned.

It is really a captive ban, and it is guarded by the special service brigade under the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Action Committee.

This operation really made Zhang Anping confused.

Fortunately, the backbone of the special service brigade is the members of the operations department and the security department of the headquarters, there are his acquaintances, and the deputy captain is still Yao Jiangjie, the old commander when he watched the gate, and Zhang Anping, who was imprisoned, will not lose the news of the outside world.

……

The "cell" is a very ordinary house, and on weekdays, there are two "door gods" guarding the door, Zhang Anping can escape, but the nature of the escape is even worse, so he is naturally honest as this prisoner.

That night, Yao Jiangjie, the deputy captain of the special service team, found Zhang Anping at night with a bottle of wine.

When Zhang Anping went to work as a doorman under Yao Jiangjie a year ago, Yao Jiangjie was a major and Zhang Anping was a second lieutenant.

More than a year later, the two met again, Zhang Anping was a "prisoner" with the status of lieutenant colonel, and Yao Jiangjie was still a major.

When the acquaintances met again, Yao Jiangjie did not put the jailer's Pu, the wine bottle was placed on the table, and the two wine glasses were opened immediately after one and two peanuts.

"Brother Zhang, let's make two cups."

Zhang Anping is not hypocritical:

"Let's do it."

Yao Jiangjie sat down, raised his glass and touched one with Zhang Anping first, and after drinking it all, he said: "Brother Zhang, my old Yao is a rough person, and he is chasing the crowd on weekdays, and he has no ideas and ambitions." ”

"Since I sat on the cold bench in the secret service, my wife and children have been on the hot kang."

"Brother, you're different, you've drunk foreign ink, and you've been an official triple jump, why can't you think about it like that?"

When Zhang Anping heard this, he asked rhetorically: "It's spread?" ”

"Let's pass it on. Brother, I don't know what you think, but I am angry at my brother, I think this glass of wine should be honored to you! ”

Zhang Anping and Yao Jiangjie clinked glasses and drank the wine in the cup thoughtfully.

What does Commissioner Dai mean?

This operation made him very incomprehensible.

Word spread in the secret service, in fact, it was a good thing for him - in this case, he gained a lot of fame.

But the problem is that this news was not transmitted by himself, and he did not dare to pass it on, and it was passed out from him, which was called ill-intentioned.

This was obviously passed on by Director Dai, but why did Lao Dai spread it?

"Brother, brother, let me say something that I think is fair." Yao Jiangjie took another drink to himself, and then said:

"Your toughness is something I've never met before, brother."

"If I had known that you were this kind of person, brother, I would have to be a brother who worships you!"

Zhang Anping shook the liquor in the cup and asked with a smile: "Brother, do you think I did the right thing?" ”

"Right? I don't know! But I'm so relieved! ”

Yao Jiangjie laughed: "Brother, I have been in the army for more than ten years, and I used to be in the Nanchang Xingying Investigation Department, and I have actually done a lot of bad things. ”

"I thought at the time, I'm a military master, what's wrong with doing something bad?"

"Songhu, Songhu!"

Yao Jiangjie's eyes suddenly reddened: "A group of old brothers who followed me came to Shanghai with me this time, I didn't see much of the prosperity of Shanghai, but most of the people were gone." ”

"You remember that Ge San, right? is Ge San, who likes to pour you the most when he drinks, and he is also dead. ”

"He died in the hospital, and when he died, he said to me, Lao Yao, I have been a mess all my life, and I have done a lot of bad things with you."

"I didn't expect that when I died, I wouldn't be confused!"

"He said that Lao Ge is worth it if I die, I killed a devil in this life, and then was carried to the hospital by the people in the rain of bullets."

"He said he regretted it, why was he so muddy before, why did he follow me and harm a lot of people?"

"He said that in his next life, he would be a good person, and he would definitely not harm the people, he said, ah......"

"He said that for the first time, he felt that wearing this skin to protect his family and defend the country was not a."

Yao Jiangjie said to himself, drinking wine one by one.

"The brothers are fighting devils in front, although they have been defeated and retreated, but the Shanghainese people help us as if they were trying their best, and treat us as heroes! This is called a soldier! ”

"Brother, tell me, is this good? That's good! ”

"But why do some bastards still want to harm the common people? Those student babies, all of them are cultural people, braving bullets and shells, running to the position to condole, those female babies, all of them are so smart? They all look like the eldest lady, but they also run to the position full of body parts one by one! ”

"They're afraid!"

"But they came anyway, and they said we were heroes, and they wanted to toast us, and they wanted to write down our names, and they said that everyone should know about us."

"Such a good schoolgirl baby, how did that bastard do it!"

"Still beauty and heroes? I'm going to be his eighth-generation ancestor! ”

"I saw a family with my own eyes, the house was blown up, three children died, they pulled through the ruins, found the food, carried away a bag, and gave the rest to us without saying a word."

"Say let's eat enough to fight devils."

"I also saw a man named Hanako taking the money she was begging for and handing it over to the fundraiser."

"Those people, in order to support us in the war, donate this and that, give this to that, but there are people, how can they be embarrassed to sell what they donated like this!"

Yao Jiangjie was drunk.

He scolded a lot of people, and he cursed those kings who made a fortune and cut off their children and grandchildren.

He also praised many people, but those who he praised were all bloody, and this ancient and long-standing land was spilled one by one.

Finally, Yao Jiangjie said:

"Brother, brother, I will go to the fourth detachment tomorrow, if I can live to see you in Nanjing, you invite me to drink, if you don't live to that time, remember it one day, pour a glass of wine for my brother."

"Grass fucking little Japan, you don't want us to have a good time, you don't want to have a good time!"

Zhang Anping looked at the empty wine bottle in a daze, until there was no more Yao Jiangjie's breath in the room.

……

Four days later, a piece of news came.

The four detachments covered the retreat of the main force of the national army, held their positions and fought to the death until the whole army was annihilated.

After hearing the news, Zhang Anping was stunned for a long time.

Yao Jiangjie, like many soldiers of the national army, is not a real soldier at all in Zhang Anping's eyes.

But he, like many people, sprinkled blood on this land without complaint or regret when the country was in danger and when the nation was in danger.

The collapse of the four detachments made him realize that the final moment of this battle was coming.

The frequent artillery fire was getting closer and closer, and the special forces were also packing up their things, not to retreat, but to fight with the other detachments of the Einsatzgruppen to cover the main force crossing the river.

This night, the cannon fire was closer.

And an unexpected person appeared in this "cell".

Director Dai!

Compared with the last time we met, Director Dai at this time was more haggard, and his previous neat clothes were also a little sloppy, and after seeing Zhang Anping in the "cell", he said directly:

"The first squadron of the fifth detachment lost contact four hours ago, and according to the report of the third squadron, their position was conquered by the Japanese army, and no one was withdrawn from the position."

Zhang Anping looked at Director Dai in a daze.

Director Dai sighed, patted Zhang Anping's shoulder, and said:

"In this battle, there are too many lives to fill in, you have been in Shanghai for a long time, I don't want to see you fill in too."

When Zhang Anping heard this, he said astringently: "I'...... I'm like a deserter. ”

On the night Yao Jiangjie looked for him, he dimly realized the true purpose of his captivity.

"You're not!" Director Dai shook his head in denial.

He imprisoned Zhang Anping because he was worried that after his nephew's brain was hot, blood would be spilled in this land where too much blood had been shed.

"Your battlefield is in Shanghai!"

"The last piece of war zone in SH City, Nanshi, is already crumbling, and the Japanese occupation of Shanghai is an inevitable result, and your battlefield is there." (Battle of Songhu, the last intra-city war zone was not the Sixing Warehouse, but the South City.) ）

"A year ago, in your speech at the training class of Guanwangmiao, you clearly mentioned the mission of the secret service behind enemy lines!"

"Now, it's time for you to keep your promise!"

"Anping, go back to Shanghai! There, it's your battlefield! ”

Zhang Anping was stunned for a long time, then put his legs together and replied solemnly:

"Yes!"

Director Dai motioned for Zhang Anping to sit down and explained:

"Regarding the layout of Shanghai, I have already explained to Xu Baichuan and Zheng Yaoxian, and I won't say much about you, because you are more prepared than them."

"Leave the rest of the work to me, and I'll do it for you."

"But Shanghai, you have to guard it for me!"

"Even if you can't do it openly, you must guard Shanghai for me!"

Zhang Anping replied without hesitation:

"Yes!"

Director Dai's tone softened: "Anping, you are too strong, Shanghai in the past was our territory, but in the future it is a fallen area, you have to take it away, understand?" ”

"Don't worry, cousin, I won't be rash."

When Director Dai heard this, even if he was in a heavy mood, he couldn't help but laugh bitterly.

You won't be presumptuous?

If you don't know how to be righteous, how can you make such a moth as a hunt list?

"It's useless to talk too much, I'll see how you behave."

"And ...... Remember to protect yourself. ”

Zhang Anping, who was about to leave, turned around when he heard this, looked at his cousin, who was still bright-eyed, and saluted a military salute respectfully.

"Go ahead."

……

Zhang Anping's return to the concession was not smooth.

At this time, fighting was still going on in Nanshi and Pudong, which were the last support points for the Nationalist army to retreat across the Suzhou Creek, and therefore encountered the onslaught of the Japanese army.

Zhang Anping avoided the Japanese army all the way and moved forward cautiously.

Since the outbreak of the Battle of Songhu, he has been running between the public concession and the war zone, but he is used to walking through the war zone - but the first squadron of the five detachments that used to accompany him has turned into stars in the sky at this time.

When passing by a battlefield full of corpses, Zhang Anping found a black shadow staggering, and he quietly approached only to find that it was a captain of the national army staggering with a comrade on his back.

At this time, the national army was evacuating to the south of Suzhou Creek, but the captain of the national army, who was carrying his comrades, was heading east.

Seeing this, Zhang Anping stepped forward quickly:

"Brother, go south, the troops are crossing the river."

The captain raised his eyes and looked at Zhang Anping, who was dressed in civilian clothes, shook his head and said, "He can't hold on." ”

Zhang Anping approached by the moonlight to check on the condition of the wounded.

His body was covered in blood, and it was impossible to determine the exact extent of the injury, but he was still breathing weakly—an injury that could not be saved even if he was taken to the chaotic field hospital.

Judging by the rank of the wounded, the other party is still a major.

Seeing that the captain's situation was not much better, Zhang Anping sighed and said, "Someone will carry it for me." ”

The other party was not polite, and handed over the person to Zhang Anping with difficulty, probably for fear that Zhang Anping would misunderstand that he was a deserter, so he explained:

"I was stunned by a shell, and when I woke up, my brothers were all gone. He's my brother, and I pulled it out of the pile of dead. ”

"If you don't die in a great disaster, you will have a blessing in the future." Zhang Anping endured the pain of the wound and said: "I will find a place to change my clothes later, I can't live in Shanghai wearing this body." ”

When the captain heard this, he sighed faintly.

The two took turns carrying the wounded, and found a change of clothes in a house that had been mostly destroyed by the bombing, and changed the military uniform for the wounded.

Zhang Anping quietly observed the captain and found that the other party was very professional in burying the changed military uniform in a jar, which made Zhang Anping vigilant.

Taking a break, Zhang Anping seemed to inadvertently ask the captain for his name and affiliation.

"Liu Xinjie, his name is Tan Zhongshu, the two of us were originally from the general team, and we broke up once, and then temporarily pulled up a company of routs, and it was all filled in."

After these two names reached Zhang Anping's ears, he suddenly lost the desire to ask again-yes, he met the protagonist of time and space again,

(According to the plot of the TV series, this scene should appear in the Battle of Changde.) ）

Seeing that Zhang Anping didn't continue to talk, Liu Xinjie, who was still a captain, asked, "Do you know us?" ”

Although he was heavy and numb at this time, the agent's instinct told him that this person suddenly stopped digging into the bottom, and he should know the two of them.

Zhang Anping really came into contact with the list of the colonels and lieutenants killed, and said casually: "You two are considered dead." ”

When Liu Xinjie heard this, he let out an indescribable wry smile.

Zhang Anping relieved himself and said, "Let's go, there are still seven or eight miles of road, there is one of my safe houses there, it is almost dawn, and it will not be safe at that time." ”

The three words of safe house came to Liu Xinjie's ears, and he immediately asked:

"Secret Service? Party Affairs Office? ”

Zhang Anping didn't introduce himself, but said, "Secret Service." ”

Liu Xinjie no longer spoke much when he heard this.

The two of them still alternated in turns, and finally arrived at the safe house that Zhang Anping said before dawn - a battle broke out here, most of the house was blown up, and there were still a lot of bullet casings scattered around, and there were also a lot of blood stains.

Liu Xinjie looked at the ruins numbly, thinking that he was going to continue walking, but unexpectedly Zhang Anping said:

"Follow me."

He took Liu Xinjie to the side house that had not yet collapsed, removed the large broken cabinet, and revealed a wooden board underneath.

Placed the cabinet as if it was being rummaged through, and made a small mechanism casually, after putting down the wooden board, it could be covered with a pile of broken bricks, and after doing all this, he signaled Liu Xinjie to follow Tan Zhongshu on his back to go in.

In the secret room, Zhang Anping rummaged through medical equipment and said:

"You're lucky, there's surgical equipment in this safe house, and you can get him bullets — it's up to him to get lucky."

Liu Xinjie was overjoyed when he heard this: "Will you have surgery?" ”

"The level of half a bottle of water depends on luck."

It turned out that Tan Zhongshu's luck was good, and after being pulled out by Zhang Anping, a barefoot doctor with no medical qualifications, he actually stiffened up.

Human life in times of war is always so tenacious.

After solving Tan Zhongshu's injuries, the two of them hastily ate some food stored in the secret room and fell asleep groggily.

……

Zhang Anping, Liu Xinjie, who were in a coma, and Tan Zhongshu, who was in a coma, did not know that when they were sleeping, Yu Hongjun issued a "Letter to the Citizens", which painfully announced the complete fall of the largest city in the Far East.

In the past three months, the Chinese army has invested a total of 700,000 troops, while the Japanese army has also invested about 270,000 troops.

Although the Japanese army finally won the battle, the huge casualties forced them to conceal the number of casualties in the country, and the casualties of more than 70,000 were said to be more than 40,000, and the number of casualties was reduced to more than 6,000.

Although Shanghai fell, the Chinese nation's determination to resist the war did not weaken.

The Japanese chose to launch an incident at Lugou Bridge, and when they chose to completely invade China, in fact, the final outcome was already doomed - the Japanese were not defeated in the Pacific War, but because of China's fierce resistance, they gained far less benefits in the Chinese battlefield than they invested, and finally had to choose to go south.

And going south, they will inevitably have to conflict with the Americans, so they chose to strike first.

But the Japanese at this time did not know that they were still complacent about occupying the largest city in the Far East.

But the resistance will not end with the fall of Shanghai.

I was actually almost finished writing at 1 o'clock last night, but I was too sleepy at the time, and I didn't send it for fear that it would not be ideal.
