Chapter Fourteen The Oath

Seeing Peng Dingjie frowning, but still eating the paste he made one bite at a time, Yang Zhen breathed a sigh of relief. [.Com text] As long as you can eat, it means you can still persevere. Yang

Zhen kept squatting in front of him and feeding him until he finished the bowl of paste, then went back to eat his own meal.

Returning to his bunk, Yang Zhen had just picked up his rice bowl, but he saw the little tiger who had already finished eating was digging into the rice bowl with unfinished intention. Seeing the little tiger who should not have eaten enough, Yang Zhen sighed, knowing that for the growing body

For Xiao Huzi, even if he doesn't move all day, this is just a bowl of sorghum rice that doesn't tolerate hunger, and it can't fill his stomach at all.

Yang Zhen picked up the bowl and walked up to him, pushed aside his obstruction and gave him half of the rice in the bowl before returning to the bunk and eating.

Seeing Yang Zhen allocate his own small rations to himself, Xiao Huzi, who did not stop the success, stood up and said: "Company commander, how can this be done? You have to share such a little food with me, how can you

manage?"

"Sit down and eat it up. If you are given something to eat, you can eat it and obey the orders. It is passed down from our ancestors for a young man to eat when he is poor. You are growing up now. How can you do it without eating enough? I

He is an adult and his body is strong, so he can bear it if he eats less." Yang Zhen spoke firmly, and there was no room for negotiation in his tone.

Perhaps out of consistent obedience, Xiao Huzi did not dare to say a word in response to Yang Zhen's order. Instead, he ate the rice in the bowl with tears in his eyes.

Seeing Yang Zhen give his little rice to his correspondent, Guo Bingxun also stood up and gave half of the rice in his bowl to Xiao Huzi, and carefully divided the piece that was not much bigger than Big Thumb's finger.

The pickle dumplings were also torn up and put into his bowl.

Looking at the extra half bowl of rice in the bowl, Xiao Huzi raised his head and looked at Guo Bingxun, the white-dog officer in his eyes, with a puzzled expression. When he was about to speak, he was stopped by Guo Bingxun: "What your company commander said

Yes, you are still a child, and you must eat enough when you are growing. From now on, your company commander and I will each give you half a bowl for each meal. He will give you breakfast and I will give you dinner. I will ensure that you are full.

We are all adults, so we can just eat one full meal a day."

After saying that, he patted his head and said: "We white dogs are not all bad people. No matter what hatred we had before, in this war that is related to the life and death of the Chinese nation, we all have only one common name."

, that is the Chinese people. In order to save China, the Chinese nation, and ourselves, let’s put aside any hatred we had before and join hands, okay? Didn’t we get along when we were in the Peking Prisoner of War Camp?

Is it not bad?"

Guo Bingxun's words were tantamount to self-statement. Rather than saying them to the little tiger who half-understood what he said, it was better to say them to Yang Zhen on the side. When Guo Bingxun walked back to Yang Zhen with his rice bowl.

When he was next to him, he smiled at Yang Zhen who was thoughtful. He knew that Yang Zhen heard what he said and understood it.

When Guo Bingxun returned to his seat, Yang Zhen, who had finished his meal, said casually while drinking water: "Don't blame him, his parents were killed at home by your retreating soldiers last year.

If our team hadn't passed by, I would have taken him in. I'm afraid he would have starved to death due to the chaos of the war. My own experience, coupled with the influence of some veterans in the army, is why I am so hostile to you."

These things about Xiao Huzi's life experience were brought up again and again when Xiao Huzi was afraid that Yang Zhen had really forgotten him before getting off the train. Otherwise, how could Yang Zhen, who had never spoken to him alone, know these things?

"You know, the families of many people in our army have been exterminated by your so-called bandit suppression troops. In many families, I am the only one left. Many times, you killed our people when you were encircling and suppressing us.

Isn’t it any less serious than the Japanese massacre of Chinese people now? How many people in our old base areas who were completely uninhabited were killed by you?”

"You only consider the common people to rebel against us, but have you ever considered why the common people rebel against us? The Chinese people are the best people in the world. As long as they have food to eat, who is willing to rebel with their heads raised?"

"Take your Sichuan as an example. In order to fight the civil war and expand the army, the warlords in Sichuan have levied this tax in advance. You are from the Sichuan Army. You have never heard of a tax on excrement.

Nowadays, we have nothing but nothing to contribute. The Republic of China has taxed us tens of thousands of dollars, so these words shouldn’t be used to judge us, right?”

"At that time, our Fourth Front Army entered Sichuan with only 20,000 people, but within two years it grew to 100,000 troops. What do you think is the reason for this? Why do the people want to rebel? The people are not tired of the hardships. The bandits are like shaving, and the soldiers are like sieving.

An official's fault is like having his hair shaved off. If the warlords hadn't extorted money excessively and didn't care about the life and death of the people, how would there be room for us to survive?"

"But you have also seen, where did the money collected by those people go? They built mansions and raised children, just for themselves to live and drink, but they didn't know how much it cost to improve the equipment and training of their own troops. How much does it cost to make a Hanyang rifle?

Even if Belgium and Germany are the most expensive countries nowadays, how much money does it cost to make rifles? The cost of buying a rifle is less than what your generals spend on prostitutes in brothels in one day. Some of your generals spend enough money on prostitutes in brothels in one day to equip a company.

Already."

"I heard that a division commander of your Sichuan Army spent hundreds of yuan in cash every day in brothels, which is more than a university professor's monthly salary. A division commander of the Central Army even lost a division's monthly salary in one night.

.In such an army, what's the use even if the grassroots officers and soldiers are passionate? Can human flesh and blood stop planes and cannons?"

"Most of your brothers in the Sichuan Army are holding rifles like the Singles-1 that can only be used to hunt rabbits, or Hanyang-made rifles that have worn out rifling, as well as those home-made twist grenades and those armed to the teeth.

The Japanese army fought bloody battles. How many good brothers fell in the blood? Since the war of resistance broke out in Sichuan, your Sichuan army has fought to the death. There have been many bloody battles, but what was the result?"

"You said that the central military blocked you and refused to provide you with additional equipment. But look at the Yunnan Army. They are also warlords. Their weapons and equipment are 10,000 times better than yours. They are all French machine-made rifles. The quality of their officers is far better than yours.

The Sichuan Army is much superior. There are also the Gui Army and the Guangdong Army. Which one is not better than you? They make money, at least they don't let the brothers use scrap metal to fight the Japanese for their lives."

"You must know that Sichuan has always been a land of abundance, and is much richer than Yunnan and Guangxi, which have always been remote places. I know that the Sichuan soldiers are brave and not afraid of death, but those who have broken equipment can only hold a bayonet without even a bayonet, and the rifling is worn out.

What will the soldiers who sacrificed their lives in vain think of you who are commanders-in-chief and army division commanders who compete with Japanese planes and heavy artillery with old-fashioned rifles and fight the enemy with their flesh and blood?"

Speaking of this, Yang Zhen looked at Guo Bingxun who was silent after hearing his words and said with a smile: "However, although your Sichuan Army has been in civil war for decades and has made a good country of abundance difficult for the people, your actions since the rise of the Anti-Japanese War have been shocking.

It’s impressive.”

"Since the Sichuan Army came out to fight the war in Sichuan in the 26th year of the Republic of China, the officers and soldiers of the Sichuan Army have not been afraid of the enemy because of their broken equipment. I am afraid you have to carefully calculate how many hard-fought battles were fought in this bloody battle. The battle of Tengxian County, on the bell

The general and three thousand Sichuan soldiers died in a bloody battle. In the battle of Guangde, Bi Chen committed suicide and died for his country. He practiced the war of resistance to the end with his own flesh and blood, and remained unswerving, that is, the enemy army did not withdraw from the country for a day, and the Sichuan army vowed not to return home for a day.

The oath he made can be said to be unyielding, and he never loses his true character as a victor in the face of powerful enemies.

"As for the performance of your Sichuan Army on the battlefield from the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War to the present, no matter who has some conscience and is a Chinese, he can only say 'magnificent'."

"The grudges of the past are just grudges. We still understand the importance of national calamity and family feud. In order to fight the Japanese and save China, we are willing to fight side by side with anyone. We will survive all the troubles as brothers, and we will forget our grudges with a smile when we meet."

"As your brother said, no matter which camp we were in before, we all have a name in front of foreign enemies: Chinese Communists. Killing the enemy and serving the country is our mission and our glory. Good men serve the country with kindness.

, to die in battle is true." After saying this, Yang Zhen smiled and extended his hand to Guo Bingxun.

Guo Bingxun, who was still silent in Yang Zhen's words, was slightly startled when he saw Yang Zhen's stretched out hand. Without any hesitation, he held his hand tightly with Yang Zhen and said: "Kill the enemy and serve the country, even if you die. Just like you.

It’s the same as what I said, don’t abandon, don’t give up. Until the Japanese pirates are eliminated and the mountains and rivers are not restored, I will never return home. If there is another chance, no matter how difficult or dangerous it is, I will never put down the weapons in my hands. Believe me

, Although our Sichuan Army's combat effectiveness is somewhat inferior, it is never ambiguous in fighting the Japanese. In terms of sacrifice spirit, it will never lose to your 18th Army."

If the previous handshake was about encouraging each other to overcome the current difficulties, then the handshake between the two at this moment is a true sharing of honor and disgrace, a promise of life and death. When the two people were holding hands tightly, a big hand clasped without saying hello.

They came up. The two turned around and saw that it was Peng Dingjie walking over with the support of Xiao Huzi.

Peng Dingjie looked at the two of them with a smile and said: "The two of you are here in Taoyuan to discuss how to fight the Japanese together. How can you not count me out? Although there are not many soldiers in the Anti-Japanese Alliance, there are also a few scum, and there is nothing we can do about the equipment and the Japanese."

In comparison, when it comes to fighting Japanese invaders, there are no cowards."

Looking at Peng Dingjie who was looking at the two of them with a smile, Yang Zhen did not hesitate to hold Peng Dingjie tightly with his other hand and put it on the hands that he and Guo Bingxun were holding tightly.

We will fight bloody battles to the end and swear to use the heads of Japanese pirates to honor the blood of countless Chinese martyrs."

Listening to Yang Zhen's words, Guo Bingxun and Peng Dingjie said firmly at the same time: "We share weal and woe, never leave, fight the Japanese to the bitter end, and swear to use the heads of Japanese pirates to commemorate the blood of countless Chinese martyrs." The three people clenched their hands tightly.

We were together for a long time before we separated.

After they separated, Yang Zhen smiled and extended his hand to Peng Dingjie alone: ​​"Brother Peng, do you believe that we are not spies who came to get your message? Let's introduce ourselves first, Yang Zhen, Company of the 129th Division of the 18th Group Army

long.

"Speaking of the Eighteenth Group Army, you may not be familiar with it. But when it comes to another name, you must have heard of it since you are a member of the Anti-Japanese War. Twenty-six years ago in the Republic of China, our Eighteenth Group Army also had another name, called China

The Workers’ and Peasants’ Red Army. And our 129th Division was adapted from the units of the original Fourth Front Army of the Chinese Workers’ and Peasants’ Red Army.”

After saying that, Yang Zhen pointed to Guo Bingxun on the side and said: "Guo Bingxun, captain and staff officer of the 41st Army of the **, and a top student of the Saint-Cyr Military Academy in France."

Hearing Yang Zhen talk about another name of his unit before the July 7th Incident, Peng Dingjie's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he tightly grabbed Yang Zhen's hand again, and even said in silence with excitement: "

Are you really adapted from the Red Army in Guannei? That's great. We have lost direct contact with the party for several years. Except for occasionally getting a little information from the central committee through the central representative in Moscow, we don't know anything."

"In order to open up the connection with the central government, our anti-alliance troops in southern Manchuria launched two western expeditions in an attempt to open up the connection with the customs, but unfortunately they failed. I never expected that this time we would be here, among the Japanese military police.

I met someone from the Central Committee.”

Looking at Peng Dingjie who was crying, Yang Zhen shook his head and said: "I am not from the Central Committee, just an ordinary member of the 18th Army. But don't worry, when we get out, I will definitely find a way to establish direct contact with the Central Committee. No.

Let you fight alone again. Believe me, you will definitely do it. And we will definitely get out."
