Waiting Chapter 757 : The Dignity of a Great Power
"Chief Zhao, what's going on? Why did you bring the reporter here again?"
Chu Xiong asked Zhao Pan with a bad look on his face. He had been really annoyed by these reporters these past few days.
"Captain, this is what the headquarters has said and must be received, and we must actively cooperate."
After Zhao Pan'er finished speaking coldly, she stood there waiting for new instructions.
When Chu Xiong heard that he came here with Shang Fang's sword, no wonder he could instigate Zhao Pan'er to come to the construction site to find him. These foreign devils also knew how to use the back door.
"Alia, you're so slow to wait. Have you eaten? The weather is nice today!"
Chu Xiong immediately changed his smile and began to get close to Aaliya, a silly foreign girl, which made Aaliya very uncomfortable.
"Chu, your attitude towards reporters is too unfriendly, I protest against you!"
"Miss Aaliyah, I accept your protest. Look, the streets here were once very prosperous, but they were destroyed by Japanese artillery fire.
Now, the hard-working Chinese people are rebuilding their homes. If I were you, I should take more photos of these. It is not worthwhile to waste time on boring protests!"
Chu Xiong's words reminded Aaliya that this was indeed a good entry point. She was undoubtedly a competent reporter, but her anger was still lingering and she said angrily to Chu Xiong:
"Chu, you have to be my guide and accept my interview. I will no longer protest!"
“No problem, I’m very happy to help!”
After Chu Xiong finished speaking, he gestured to Zhao Paner, meaning:
"Leave Aaliya to me, you can go."
Zhao Pan'er's mouth dropped in disdain, and after saluting, he turned and left.
When Zhao Pan'er left, she thought to herself:
"This guy really can't move his feet when he sees a beautiful foreign woman. He has no class stance at all."
Chu Xiong couldn't control what Zhao Pan'er was thinking. He was leading Aaliya around to take photos seriously, focusing on directing her attention to post-war reconstruction.
"Alia, the weather is very cold now. Many people are homeless and sleeping outdoors. We lack a large number of tents and funds for reconstruction. What you see is only Liu Town. Our vast countryside also has a large number of houses.
They were burned down by the Japanese, and the fellow villagers were left sleeping in the ice and snow. It was so miserable!"
"Chu, the atrocities committed by the Japanese against peaceful residents are in violation of the Geneva International Convention and will definitely be condemned by people all over the world. I will definitely make it known to the world;
We also call on everyone to donate money and materials to the people affected by the disaster in Liu Town to help them rebuild their homes!"
Chu Xiong began to tell Aaliyah about the touching story of the village soldiers of the Li family, who fought bloody battles with the Japanese for two days and nights in order to protect the people from being massacred by the Japanese. Alia's eyes were red and swollen after hearing this...
"Chu, can you take me to visit those respectable and lovely heroes? Don't worry, I won't take pictures, lest the devils come to disturb their peace."
"Aliya, of course! You can also take photos so that people all over the world can see their feats. The devils can't even defeat a group of militiamen, and if they come to destroy the peace of the deceased, they will definitely be reviled and despised by people all over the world.
of!"
"Chu, can I publish this sentence?"
"Of course, just tell the devil that if you have the ability, you can come to me, Chu Xiong, to seek revenge, either in a duel or in a sword showdown. The devil's swordsmanship is like a three-legged cat! It will only harm the common people and lose the dignity of a soldier!"
Chu Xiong said very domineeringly.
One day later, Chu Xiong accompanied Aaliya to Lijiacun for an interview. When they arrived at the Martyrs Cemetery, she was shocked by the neatly arranged and dense tombstones;
They are like living soldiers, holding steel guns in their hands and guarding their homes with their lives. Any powerful enemy who comes close will be torn to pieces by them!
Aaliyah bowed deeply to them in the Chinese way, and then took a photo that later shocked the world.
Then they went to interview the Li family's militia company. Chu Xiong called someone to greet them in advance and partially replaced their equipment. So when Aaliyah appeared at the militia training ground, what they saw was a group of energetic and high-spirited people.
Militiamen, carrying a variety of weapons and carrying out military training in a orderly manner;
Although their weapons were very old, their eyes were very determined and unyielding. Alia keenly captured this moment with her camera and named it "Unyielding Gaze".
This photo, together with another photo titled "Immortal Monument", appeared on the cover of Time Magazine and was rated as one of the most shocking photos of the 20th century. Of course, this is a story later.
"Chu, there are female militiamen inside, can I interview them?"
Chu Xiong nodded, and they came to the female militia team. The first person to be interviewed was Sigen's sister-in-law, a woman who lost her husband in the war. She didn't even have her own name, she only remembered her name in her natal family.
At that time, I was called Sanya, a name with the highest repetition rate in rural areas of northern China;
If it were the south, there would be more people called Sanmei!
The weapon she held tightly in her hand was the red cherry gun that her husband had used in hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese when he fell, and what she carried on her back was a Sanba Gai captured by her husband.
"Sanya, I want to know if you volunteered to join the militia to fight the Japanese?"
Alia asked her first question with tears in her eyes.
“Of course, the devils broke into our homes, burned our houses, and killed our families;
My man, Li Sigen, stabbed two Japs to death with this red cherry gun. When he died, this red cherry gun was stabbed into the Japs!
This San Ba Da Gai was captured by him after he stabbed the Japanese to death. These are the weapons left by my man. I will continue to use them to fight against the Japanese!"
If the elder brother is sacrificed, then the younger brother will be sacrificed! If the man is sacrificed, then the mother-in-law will be sacrificed. If the son is sacrificed, then the daughter will be sacrificed!
Many of the female militiamen in Lijia Village were sacrificed by men. We must avenge the men. We must protect our homes and our land. As long as the devils do not leave our homes for a day, we must fight the devils to the end.
!”
"Sisters, do you think so?"
Sister-in-law Sigen, no, should be called Sanya, asked loudly to the queue of female militiamen.
"kill!"
What answered her was a neat assassination movement. The weapons in their hands were all kinds of, including the medieval red cherry gun, the three-eyed blunderbuss of the ancestors, the old sleeve, made in Hanyang, and the 38 cap captured from the Japanese...
Aaliyah was completely shocked and once again took a photo titled "Everyone is a Soldier";
"Chu, did they use such crude weapons to defeat the Japanese who were armed to the teeth?"
"Alia, facts speak louder than words. Do you want to go and see the battlefield where they fight the Japanese?"
Aaliyah nodded silently, this was a pilgrimage for her.
Aaliya and others, led by militia company commander Li Chennan, arrived at an unknown hillside deep in the mountains. The smoke had dissipated, but the traces of the battlefield were still vaguely visible...
They came to a large earth mound, on which a stele was built with wooden stakes, with several large words written on it:
"What happens to the invaders!"
"Aliya, here are buried the corpses of more than 180 Japanese soldiers from the Ushijima Brigade Ghana Squadron who went into the mountains to massacre people. Our kind villagers also collected their corpses so that they would not be eaten by wild beasts. This is
We, the Chinese people, behave as a great nation, we are not only responsible for killing, but also responsible for burying!"
Chu Xiong's words were full of murderous intent, but Aaliya was not afraid at all. It was the Japanese who were afraid!
Chapter completed!
