27. Tombstone lettering 2

Sun Shaoqiu was deeply shocked by the simple yet solemn ceremony in front of him. Shaoqiu wiped away his tears with a wave of his hand, ran into the yard, found a hoe and shovel, and tidied the yard with his brothers.

After the brothers worked together for more than two hours, the team reluctantly settled down at Shaoqiu's house.

Yuesong stood at the door, smoking and looking around.

"Captain, there are too many people to live in. It would be nice if the room were bigger." Shaoqiu wiped his sweat and said to Yuesong.

"It's okay, look over there, look over there, we have so many strong laborers, and there are so many bamboos around. If we build a few more bamboo buildings, won't we have everything?" Yuesong pointed, looking to the west.

Point.

"The captain is still very good. It's not difficult to catch him." Shaoqiu said happily.

"No matter how powerful the special forces members are, they are still human beings. As human beings, we have to eat, drink, poop, and sleep. Let me tell you quietly, we are a team of the New Fourth Army. The New Fourth Army pays attention to the conditions of the soldiers and civilians. Simply put, the New Fourth Army fights for the benefit of the people.

, please note, you cannot tell Lieutenant Colonel Yingzi these things."

"Well, I understand."

"So our team does a lot of things by itself, which is called self-reliance. We have enough food and clothing. When we are not fighting, we even grow our own food."

"That's great. It's not like the British army. They just know how to eat and never do it themselves."

"By the way, you will know in the future that there is a big difference between the army and the army. I only learned this when I accidentally hit the New Fourth Army in the Dabie Mountains."

"What did you say?" Yingzi took it back without knowing what was going on.

Yuesong thought to himself, a spy is a spy, and there is no sound in the aisles. Yuesong winked at Shaoqiu, and then said to Yingzi: "Report to Lieutenant Colonel Yang, captain Luo Yuesong and team member Sun Shaoqiu are discussing to go to Andy tomorrow.

Uncle Sun’s remains will be collected on the beach of the river, and Uncle Sun will be laid to rest this morning.”

Shaoqiu said nothing, but looked at the captain gratefully.

Yingzi couldn't say anything after listening to what Yuesong said. She could only say: "Captain Luo is very thoughtful. Let Captain Hu be responsible for completing this task."

"I'm sorry, this task must be completed by myself." Yuesong's voice suddenly rose a lot.

Yingzi was not the commander of the special force, so he had no choice but to say: "Okay, just do what Captain Luo said." After Yingzi finished speaking, he walked away bored.

Seeing Lieutenant Colonel Yingzi leave, Shaoqiu said to Yuesong: "Captain, my father told me before that after a hundred years, he will be buried next to that bamboo forest."

"where?"

"It's over there." Shaoqiu pointed to the bamboo forest in the distance.

"The deceased is great, so we will bury him by the bamboo forest as your father said."

"Well, thank you, captain."

"Thank you, thank you. Your father is my father. Fulfilling filial piety is a matter of course. This is the fine tradition of our Chinese nation. No matter what era, no matter where we go, we must inherit it."

"Yes, Captain."

Early the next morning, Yuesong took Shaoqiu and several brothers to find Old Man Sun on the Andili River Beach. In the hot tropical rainforest climate, less than a month later, Old Man Sun's remains were found.

All that's left is a pile of bones.

Shaoqiu looked at his father's remains, knelt on the ground and cried for a while, then he picked them up one by one and put them into the coffin that Yuesong personally made for Old Man Sun out of pine wood.

Together, several brothers carried the coffin to the bamboo forest designated by Old Man Sun. Biaozi had already led a queue to wait there, and the grave had been dug.

After a simple ceremony, the brothers buried Old Man Sun in the ground.

Brother Chao quietly brought a tombstone made from a camphor tree trunk and inserted it in front of the grave.

On the tombstone, Luo Yuesong personally carved several large characters with a dagger, "Grave of Sun Zhijie" and the year of birth and death in small characters. The foot of the tombstone was not engraved with Sun Shaoqiu's name, but was engraved with a line of small characters, "Chinese Expeditionary Army".

”.

Sun Shaoqiu looked at the tombstone silently, looked at the three cigarettes on the thunder point in front of the tombstone, the three wild mangoes placed by Nurse Lan, and the bouquet of wild chrysanthemums placed by Lieutenant Colonel Yingzi, then he knelt down on the ground and kowtowed to his father.

Three rings.

"Comrades, stand at attention and take off your hats," Biaozi shouted.

The brothers lined up in order, stood at attention, and took off their hats.

"Shaoqiu, take out your Wangba box and let your father rest in peace with three gunshots," Yuesong said.

"Yes." Sun Shaoqiu stood up, took out the Wangba box from his waist, pointed at the sky, and fired three shots, "Bah", "Bah" and "Bah". The gunshots echoed over the bamboo forest.

Every person who sacrificed his life for the Anti-Japanese War deserves to be remembered forever; every person who sacrificed his life for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation will be immortalized forever.
