Under the command of Commander Shiozawa Koichi of the First Expedition Fleet, 2,000 Japanese Marines quickly boarded the fleet and prepared to set off for Songhu, thousands of miles away, to join the battlefield and fight for them.
The empire expands its territory, or becomes cannon fodder and dies in a foreign land.
This is a hellish battle,
Private Keita Kono was sitting in the cabin, eating his dry food while recalling what happened before his departure.
His father was seriously ill in bed,
So the only people who saw him off on the train to say goodbye were his elderly mother and his wife Noye Lily.
Her mother said to him: "This is a very important expedition. Even if you have money, you may not be able to buy a place in the expedition. It is also a good time for you to make contributions. I have four sons. Even if you die in battle, you don't have to worry."
The situation at home, but if you achieve success, it will be the glory of our entire family!"
"So you must make good use of your quota this time and contribute to our family!"
"As for your wife, children, we will take good care of you!"
"But if by any chance you are caught by the Chinese army, then I'll kiss you and end it myself!"
"I will never allow you to surrender to the Chinese Army or do something shameful to bring shame on our entire family!"
"I don't want to go out on the street and be scolded and ridiculed by everyone pointing fingers behind my back!"
"I believe you don't want your family to suffer such a shameful end!"
This is the important thing that his mother said to Private Keita Kono on the eve of his departure.
As for his personal life and death, her mother didn't care at all.
She only cares about the fate and glory of the entire family.
As for his wife Noye Lily,
But among the huge crowd of farewells, I ran around trying to find his figure, but I couldn't find him right away.
However, Private Keita Kono discovered Nono Lily at the window of the train, and he kept waving at her and yelling,
But because at that time, the whole platform of the farewell train station was full of people,
Therefore, his beloved wife did not immediately see his shouting.
"Uuuuuu——"
Until the sound of sirens sounded,
His beloved wife Nono Yuri finally saw the figure of Private Keita Kono.
In the end, both of them had tears in their eyes, waving to each other and shouting goodbye.
At that moment of separation, Private Keita Kono's eyes turned red for the first time and he cried softly.
He missed his beloved wife and his young children,
In fact, he is not very enthusiastic about war.
I don’t even want to go to Songhu to participate in the battle.
But it was his mother, who valued the family's reputation, who selected him to serve as a soldier in the Navy and gave him a quota to fight.
In this regard,
When Private Keita Kono thought of this, he was filled with resentment towards his mother.
Because his mother took away his happy life.
"Damn war, and those Chinese troops!"
This is the dry food in the hand of Private Keita Kono. After eating it all,
He complained with anger on his face.
But he did not complain about the army and navy of his country.
This is the ultimate mastermind behind the war.
And on the Japanese fleet, there are many Japanese Marines who are trapped in memories like Private First Class Kono Keita.
It's just that the things they recall are different.
At this time, Zhou Wenhua led his security team to the first stop of the rubber plantation.
That is the rubber plantations in Zhanjiang, Maoming, Yangjiang and other areas in western Guangdong on the other side of Yangcheng.
There, the natural rubber planting area is only 3,000 hectares.
The average number of rubber plantations per hectare is 495. The cultivation density is too high, which is not conducive to the growth of other understory plants.
If the planting density is reasonable and the planting density of rubber trees is reduced, other wild animals and plants can gain space to survive.
It can also improve the biodiversity and disease resistance of rubber forests, intercept fog water, and conserve water sources.
However, Zhou Wenhua came to inspect these rubber plantations.
It’s not just about looking at the situation in the rubber plantations.
But to see the training of the security team at the plantation he deployed here,
and the situation of recruiting troops,
After working for Zhou Wenhua,
Ren Lianjie, a naval officer who escaped from Songhu, suddenly arrived here from the rubber plantation on the other side of Yunnan at this time, and according to Zhou Wenhua's instructions, he was supervising the training of the security team here.
"Boss! You are finally here for inspection!"
"I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
"You asked me to recruit troops and conduct military training. All matters have been taken care of. You can accept them at any time!"
After seeing Zhou Wenhua appear,
Ren Lianjie also came out from one of the rubber plantations with a security team to greet him.
"Hahaha! That's good!"
"Because the Japanese have already started provoking war in Songhu, I'm afraid a large-scale war will break out in Songhu in a few days!"
"At that time, I hope that these new recruits you gave me military training can participate in this Songhu Battle to exercise their actual combat capabilities!"
"What do you think?"
Facing Ren Lianjie with a bright smile, Zhou Wenhua was also in a good mood and responded.
"Follow the boss's orders in everything you do!"
"But maybe not every security guard dares to participate in actual combat. We can make a big splash with a group of people!"
Ren Lianjie nodded in agreement.
"Yeah! OK!"
"I will!"
"I'm not afraid to tell you that the reason why I want you and other management members that I trust to recruit troops for me to form our security team is to kill the Japanese and protect our country!"
"It's not just to protect my plantations, factories and other industries!"
"Not for any other purpose!"
Seeing Ren Lianjie obeying his orders very much, Zhou Wenhua nodded with satisfaction and said frankly.
"Well! I will definitely follow you, boss, in all your expeditions!"
"Anyway, after that day, I am no longer an officer in the navy. I have already made up my mind to follow you for the rest of my life!"
"Of course, if you don't want me, then you need to find another way to survive!"
Ren Lianjie was also very frank.
"You are already one of my direct relatives, so unless I die, or your character and personality change, you do some bad things, or you betray me, I will not abandon you.
You are a direct member of the family!"
"Of course, or if I am assassinated by the Japanese, then there is nothing we can do!"
Zhou Wenhua also promised.
He also extended his right hand and shook hands with Ren Lianjie, expressing his trust and reaching cooperation.
Seeing this, Ren Lianjie also smiled and shook hands with Zhou Wenhua.
