However, once Yang Zhen changed his mind, it didn't take too long. The local Military Control Commission in Tongliao acted quickly enough, and the necessary trains were transferred within half an hour. But it was still enough for this person to change his mind.
The train was delayed by almost an hour.
At the same time, after Yang Zhen arrived at Tongliao Station, in order to ensure his safety, he immediately imposed martial law on the station. The tight security also frightened the passengers who took the train to death. It was not until long after the train departed that
Passengers who knew what had happened were still talking about it and speculating about what happened.
Was there Japanese spies sneaking into the train station, or was there something important going on? The commander-in-chief of the Anti-Japanese Alliance was not known for a while, so rumors were flying among the passengers on the train. Some even speculated whether it was the puppet Manchukuo.
That big shot, even the original Xuantong, the current Emperor Kant, was captured and transported back to Harbin on this train?
After all, they didn’t know who was on this train, but they still knew that the Anti-Japanese War had won a great victory some time ago. The station was heavily guarded before departure. This train departed from Tongliao.
The train at the station was suddenly delayed, so the people on the train rarely complained, but instead started discussing it with great interest.
Yang Zhen, who was in the two additional carriages, naturally didn't know that there were some unbridled discussions in the carriage in front. However, regarding the martial law implemented at the station after he arrived, a large number of passengers on the incoming train were unable to get off, and the train that was supposed to leave was
, this situation can only happen later, Yang Zhen is very dissatisfied.
Although he also knew that this was a measure taken by the Tongliao Military Control Commission for his own safety, Yang Zhen was still very dissatisfied with this behavior that was quite disturbing to the people. After this incident, except for the military ranks, Yang Zhen was already very dissatisfied.
Yang Zhen, who rarely takes trains, almost never takes trains anymore.
The train prepared by the Northeast Bureau for the Anti-Alliance Headquarters was a special train used by the captured Kwantung Army commander and a modified military command train. Yang Zhen had basically never ridden it except once or twice. Yang Zhen had never ridden it.
I rarely take the train, not because it is uncomfortable, nor because the train is slow or for other reasons.
In fact, in this era, aircraft without pressurized cockpits and using piston engines are not only faster but also very backward. Whether it is safety or comfort, there is no way to compare with special trains. The number of airports is even more
There are so few of them, and the takeoff and landing of planes are greatly restricted.
Convenient and fast highways are far from a thing. Most of the roads between various places are poor quality soil roads, and taking a car is not a comfortable thing. At present, the national railway network is the largest.
In the densely populated Northeast, taking the train can be said to be the most comfortable way to travel.
If he takes a train, it is even less possible for him to squeeze into an ordinary carriage with passengers. Although he rarely uses the special train for the former Kwantung Army commander with bedrooms, washing facilities, and high-end dining cars, after the passenger and freight train
There is no problem in adding an ordinary passenger car compartment.
But Yang Zhen really couldn't bear the delay and impact of too many things happening on his trip because he was alone. This time when he took the train, the place was noisy and there were soldiers everywhere, which also affected many passengers' travel. Yang Zhen did not except the military until the founding of the People's Republic of China.
I have never taken a train again.
Originally, Yang Zhen transferred to a train this time instead of flying to pick him up. It was just to have a good rest and relax before arriving in Harbin. Yang Zhen chose to take the land route back to the Northeast, a journey of several hundred kilometers. Even though
Even riding in a car is exhausting.
The American-made jeeps of this era are not the SUVs that will be more comfortable than cars in a few decades. Although the off-road capabilities are excellent, the comfort is basically not there. Coupled with the dilapidated roads that have not been maintained for many years, this
The bumpy journey on the road made Yang Zhen somewhat exhausted. And the thinking along the way also made Yang Zhen feel no better than fighting a big battle.
Originally, I changed to take the train just to let myself rest, relax my muscles, and relieve my tired brain from overuse. But I didn’t expect that it would lead to such a commotion. After this incident, in addition to military trains
Apart from that, Yang Zhen never took a train again.
However, taking the train this time was a rare way to relax for Yang Zhen, who had basically taken an ordinary train for the first time except for military trains. Although the guards around him stood nervously where he was
In the carriage, where it connects to the carriage for ordinary passengers, the safety on the gun in hand is also open.
The number of people in the front passenger compartment is very complicated. How dare these guards relax a little? Who can guarantee that there are no spies or saboteurs among the thousands of passengers in the front compartment? No. 1 does not allow every passenger in the compartment to
Guards are deployed, what if something unexpected happens?
But compared to the extremely nervous security guards, Yang Zhen was much more relaxed. After telling Zhang Zixiong to inform the security guards not to be so intimidating and to turn off the insurance, Yang Zhen turned his head and kept looking out the window. There were many people on both sides of the railway.
Some unique scenery.
But not long after the train left Tongliao Station, something unexpected happened. Although Yang Zhen's security guards were nervous to death, it gave Yang Zhen a rare opportunity to relax. The journey was long, and although the scenery was picturesque,
But it is also a very good thing to have a long conversation with someone.
It is impossible for the railway system to be restored and operated during wartime as it was during peacetime. Especially the Dazheng Railway and Pingqi Railway that need to be passed from Tongliao to Harbin are the main channels for the transportation of strategic materials from the northeast to the Guan.
With the traffic opened, this railway seems extremely busy.
Therefore, although there are direct trains from Tongliao to Harbin, all the passenger trains on the railway lines in the entire North Manchu base area are not express, and they are basically slow trains that stop at the station. Even during the war, in order to make way for military trains
, it is common to stay away for several hours sometimes.
Although the carriage Yang Zhen was riding in was not possible to avoid after it was added to this train. However, it was impossible to adjust the operation chart of the entire railway line in such a short period of time. Therefore, the train traveled slowly along the way.
Yes, according to the usual operation plan, none of the stations that should be stopped were missed.
During a seemingly long trip, chatting with a stranger is still a good way to solve the boring problem. Especially chatting with a young couple who don't know their true identity, chatting about family problems, which Yang Zhen has never had
The things I have come into contact with are not necessarily a way to relax.
Just as the train Yang Zhen was riding passed Zhengjiatun Station, at the junction between the carriage Yang Zhen was riding and the carriage in front, a couple with their children suddenly knocked on the door and wanted to enter the carriage Yang Zhen was in.
Looking at the couple holding their children, Yang Zhen stopped the guards from blocking them and asked them to put the couple into his carriage.
After entering the carriage, the man holding the child in the couple looked at the armed guards surrounding him, who strictly prohibited them from getting close to Yang Zhen. He was a little scared, and his words were not very fluent and said: "
Sir, I'm sorry to disturb you. The child suddenly developed a high fever after getting on the bus. We didn't bring any medicine with us, and there was no doctor on the bus. We had no choice, so we thought we could run here to see if we could try our luck.
"
Looking at the two-year-old boy in the man's arms, his little face was burning red. After Yang Zhen ordered the guards surrounding the couple to withdraw, he quickly asked a military doctor who was following him to take him over for examination.
At the same time, he waved to the rather restrained couple to sit across from him and said with a smile: "This is nothing, everyone should help each other."
"We are the people's army. If we just sit back and do nothing when the people are in trouble, how can we talk about serving the people? We have doctors and medicine here. Leave your children to us. Don't worry, you two. Don't be too nervous. I don't care either.
No sir. I think we are all about the same age, so we should all be of the same age."
"Since we have the opportunity to sit together, let's talk about family matters. Can I ask where you are going? Harbin or Qiqihar? Are you visiting relatives and friends, or doing business? This child has a fever, why did he come out?
Judging from the two of you, you should both be intellectuals."
Although Yang Zhen's attitude was very kind and his tone was as normal as usual, the nervous expressions of the couple had eased somewhat. However, the shadow cast when they were surrounded by a group of wolf-like and tiger-like soldiers did not
It cannot be eliminated in a short time.
When answering Yang Zhen's words, he still stumbled and said: "Sir, both of us are teachers at Tongliao School. I am a teacher from the Tongliao Normal School of the Puppet Manchukuo and now the Tongliao Normal School. This time I went to Harbin.
It’s because I received a transfer order to work in a newspaper office in Harbin.”
"My wife was a teacher at the former Puppet Manchukuo High School in Tongliao and is now a teacher at the No. 1 Senior High School. I was transferred to work in Harbin this time and left her to work alone in Tongliao with a child. Now she is pregnant again.
I'm really worried. My parents are both in Jilin, and her parents are far away in Chengde, and the elderly on both sides can't help."
"I simply asked her to quit her job and go to Harbin with me to take care of her. When the child is older, we can go out to find a job. I am a graduate of Jilin Normal University of Puppet Manchuria, and my wife is a teacher of Xinjing University of Technology of Puppet Manchuria.
Graduates of special subjects. Schools are being built everywhere now. It will be no problem to find a job as a teacher after giving birth."
"The child was fine before he got on the train. Although he had a slight cough, he saw a doctor before leaving and he said it was nothing serious. Who knew that the child suddenly developed a high fever while the train was moving. We searched everywhere
There was no doctor in the carriage, and I didn’t bring any medicine with me, and the child had a really bad fever.”
"When I got on the train at Tongliao Station, I saw your posture here and knew what big shot you had here. Although we are not sure whether you have a doctor here, but you are such a senior officer, there may be some medicine here, so we
I ran over here recklessly. Sir, I'm really sorry for disturbing your rest."
Yang Zhen was a little curious when he heard that the man in front of him, who was slightly younger than him, was actually transferred to work in the Harbin newspaper. When he was transferred to the newspaper, he was either a reporter or an editor. He would be an uncrowned king in later generations. At least it showed that this person was good at writing.
He must have a certain skill, otherwise he wouldn't have been transferred from Tongliao to Harbin.
As for the identity of this man, Yang Zhen can still tell whether he is what he said. There is a layer of callus on the inside of the middle finger of this man's right hand. At first glance, he is someone who has been holding pens for a long time. There are signs of chalk on his hands that have been used for a long time.
The mark was too pale. At least this person did not lie in this regard. He was indeed a teacher.
