After hearing Yang Zhen's instructions, Xiao Huzi glared at the nonsense soldier, angrily walked forward and placed the lunch boxes of Yang Zhen and others on a big rock, allowing the surrounding soldiers to take turns to visit.

Seeing that the lunch boxes of Yang Zhen and others contained the same cans and milk powder as his own, the soldiers around him who had agreed with that person's opinion just now became silent. The soldier lowered his head with a red face.
Looking at the soldiers who were silent, Yang Zhen smiled and said: "The political commissar and the chief of staff and I eat the same food as everyone else, and there is no special food. However, the canned and milk powder things he mentioned are still there.
Yes, but not all of us have the same taste. As you can see, our food is no different from everyone else's."
"Because Director Peng was tortured by the Japanese and his stomach was damaged, and the sorghum rice was too thick for him to digest, we made an exception and let him enjoy the treatment of a sick and wounded patient and eat some rice. Moreover, his body never recovered after being tortured.
, is very weak and needs nutrition. So I gave him a little care and made him a little special. I didn’t make this clear to everyone in advance, so I ask for your understanding.”
Having said this, Yang Zhen picked up his lunch box and sat on the ground, then said to the soldiers surrounding him: "We have been back here to rest for a few days, and we have not had a good chat with you. In this way, we can take advantage of this rare opportunity today
If you have the opportunity, the political commissar and the chief of staff and I are here to chat with you. How about we chat while we eat?"
After saying that, Yang Zhen turned to the cooking squad leader and said: "Hurry up and prepare food for everyone. After the meal is finished, you don't have to leave. Let's all sit together and chat."
After listening to Yang Zhen's words, the cooking squad leader quickly agreed: "Okay, commander, please wait a moment, I will prepare food for everyone right now."
Seeing the soldiers finishing their meals one after another, Yang Zhen motioned for everyone to sit down and said: "There are no commanders, political commissars, chiefs of staff and other leaders here today. We are all equal. We are all
of."
Yang Zhen originally wanted to say he was his brother, but when he looked at the cadres and soldiers sitting in front of him, he saw that although he was not the youngest, he definitely could not be said to be older. His age could only be considered lower-middle-class at best. And among the cadres
Among them, he was the youngest, so he quickly changed his words: "We are all brothers who share weal and woe."
"You can tell us directly what's on your mind today without any taboos. You can also openly mention our shortcomings and shortcomings in our work. As this comrade said today, the food is not enough.
It’s a waste of time for everyone to train. Although I don’t quite agree with the way he has to put forward his opinions, it’s good to say it out loud.”
After Yang Zhen finished speaking, the soldiers who were holding their jobs looked at me and I looked at you, but no one spoke. The soldier named by Yang Zhen lowered his head deeply.
Seeing the expressions of the soldiers, Yang Zhen smiled knowingly and said: "Since everyone won't say anything, then I will call them by name?"
After that, he pointed to the soldier who just spoke and said: "If I remember correctly, you joined the army after we fought against the tribes in Wuchang territory, right? By the way, your name seems to be Niu Er. Then you can
First, let’s talk about why you still want to join our army even though you know that joining the army to fight against the Japanese is likely to result in death.”
After saying that, Yang Zhen was afraid that he would have some psychological burden, so he said in a calm tone: "You can say it with confidence, it's okay. I said there are no commanders, political commissars, or chiefs of staff here today. Some of them are just together."
Brothers stirred in a pot, slept in a wooden fence, and marched and fought together."
Seeing that the soldier's head was even lower after hearing what he said. Yang Zhen smiled and said: "Why don't you speak? Where did you have the courage to give me and the political commissar advice just now? I said it today,
If you have anything to say, feel free to raise it. If after you finish speaking, your company commander and instructor want to punish you when you go back, you can come to me directly and I will deal with them."
After the soldier heard what Yang Zhen said, he hesitated, put the lunch box in his hand into the hands of the people around him, stood up and said: "Commander, you remember correctly, my name is Niu Er, I am in the army of Wuchang."
.I joined the army to fight the Japanese for no other reason than to avenge myself and my family."
"My family used to have more than ten acres of cultivated land in Wuchang. On weekdays, we worked for the landlords. Although it was a bit harder all year round, it was no problem to have enough food and clothing. We could still eat meat during the Chinese New Year, and we still had food on New Year's Eve.
I can make white flour dumplings and eat them.”
"But the year before last, the little devils implemented some kind of merging of villages and households. They took away the house we had just built for my brother to marry, and drove everyone in the family into some kind of group tribe. But no matter where they went, they didn't even have a house.
No. My eldest brother came to argue with them, but they accused him of being an anti-Manchurian and anti-Japanese activist and arrested him. He still doesn’t know whether he is alive or dead.”
"In the twelfth lunar month of winter, there is no house. The whole family can only build a shack with ventilation on all sides. But in this freezing winter, how can a shack accommodate people? I was forcibly driven to the group tribe for a few days. I was six years old.
My sister was freezing and hungry, and died within a few days."
"Last winter, when my father went out to collect firewood, the police guard refused to let him in because he came back late. He said that no one was allowed in after the hour. Since he couldn't go home, in order to keep warm, my father had to find a house outside.
There was a fire in the shelter. But the Japanese deputy police chief insisted that my father started the fire in order to report to the Anti-Japanese Alliance. For nine days in the third year, the weather was so bad that he stripped my father naked and hung him on the gate to freeze him alive.
Dead."
"After my father died, my mother was already weak. She was so sick that she didn't survive the New Year and was gone. What was a harmonious and beautiful family was just torn apart by the Japanese."
"Except for the eldest brother whose life or death is unknown, I am the only one left in the family of five. I joined the army to fight the Japanese and avenge my parents and my miserable little sister." Thinking of the sufferings of my family,
Niu Er's eyes were red.
Yang Zhen patted his shoulder and comforted him, then raised his head and said to the other soldiers: "Niu Er said it well. Today, everyone should pour out the bitter water in their hearts. Don't have any taboos.
Everyone’s life experiences are similar.”
After listening to Niu Er's words, he joined the army with Niu Er. Most of the soldiers with similar experiences had red eyes. A soldier also stood up and said: "Commander, political commissar, my experience is similar to that of Niu Er."
"My family was not only driven into the group tribe, but the original land was also bought by the little devils at a low price. This land is the lifeblood of the villagers. Where is it willing to sell it? If not, they will say
You are an anti-Manchu and anti-Japanese element. When you are caught, you will not see your body alive or dead. But if you are sold, in addition to doing hard work for the little devils who have occupied our land, we will be sent to the north to open up wasteland. The north is full of wasteland.
The land is raw, and the grain produced is not enough for the chaff, except for the grain."
"Neither my parents could survive that winter, and they didn't even have a sip of sorghum rice soup when they died. My three brothers had no choice but to give away the two youngest brothers and my sister and go to Heligang by themselves.
I went down to the coal mine. I thought that even if I die, I will die in my hometown, so I will come back here to help the little devils. But the little devils are not soldiers, and these common people are even more hateful."
"You have to carry the work for them, and you won't be beaten or scolded, and you won't be given enough to eat. If you resist at all, we will say that you are destroying the harmony between Japan and Manchuria and that you are an anti-Manchu anti-Japanese element. You will be sent to the gendarmerie or the police in a bundle."
Department. No one who was sent there came back alive. I once saw with my own eyes a person who was sent to the gendarmerie. They threw him into a wolf-dog pen and fed him alive."
After Niu Er finished talking to this man, other soldiers who had been silent just now started talking about the persecution of their families.
Listening to the soldiers recounting the experiences of their families, Yang Zhen couldn't help but nod his head. After everyone's words fell, Yang Zhen spoke: "Everyone has been persecuted by the little devils, and almost everyone in the family died at the hands of the little devils.
Everyone joins the army for revenge. But have you ever thought about it, are we just avenging our own families when we fight against the Japs?"
After Yang Zhen finished speaking, the soldiers who were chattering just now stopped talking and looked at Yang Zhen quietly.
Looking at the expressions of the soldiers around him, Yang Zhen said seriously: "Think about it, everyone. All of you have been persecuted by the Japs, and many of you even lost your family. You joined the army for revenge. There is nothing wrong with that. But we are alone
Human power is limited. Even if you can kill one Japs, can you kill all the Japs in Northeast China? No."
"We only have one heart, twist it into a rope, and drive the Japanese out of China completely. Only then can we avenge our families, so that our descendants will never repeat our mistakes and experience the pain we have experienced."
"The little devils committed murder and arson, openly robbed and plundered, and committed all kinds of evil. What they did in the Northeast was just one of the crimes they committed in China. Do you know that when the little devils invaded Guannei and occupied Nanjing, they killed all of us?
Three hundred thousand compatriots, captured Japanese brothers, ordinary Nanjing citizens, and even refugees living in Nanjing, almost no one was spared. Countless of our sisters were raped and then killed by the Japanese."
"We also want to live in peace and enjoy a comfortable life with a wife, children, and a hot bed. But the little devil won't let us. He not only wants our food, but also wants the precious resources left to us by our ancestors, and also wants to destroy our country.
People are treated as pigs and dogs for slaughter.”
"Everyone can say that what happened in Nanjing is too far away from you and has nothing to do with you. Many of you even don't know where Nanjing is. But do you know that Nanjing is now the capital of the Republic of China and a place where many foreign envoys gather?
.It is a bigger city than Harbin and Shenyang.”
"The little devils dare to commit murder and arson without restraint in a place that attracts the world's attention. In the so-called Manchukuo, which they control tightly, killing us Chinese who are just slaves in their eyes is a piece of cake and there is no taboo.
?”
"Everyone knows that the Northeast, oh, Manchuria today, used to have a lot of beards, and many of us have been infested by beards. What did you do when faced with the intrusion of beards? Did you stand up to resist, or did you let others slaughter you?
"
"I believe that many of our soldiers here have had similar experiences. When faced with the beards, the more honest you are, the less resistant you are. The more arrogant the beards are and the more they treat you as a soft persimmon. They first took your home
You don't say anything about food. You still don't say anything after ruining your wives and daughters. But the next step is that they should put a knife to your neck."
"Nowadays, these little devils are more hateful than those beards. Using beards as a metaphor for them even spoils the beards. At least, the beards have some rules and know not to bully the people. Some beards even pay attention to killing the rich and giving to the poor. But the little devils
There are not so many rules.”
"Today they can drive you into tribal groups and rob you of your land. Tomorrow they can rob you of your wives and daughters. The day after tomorrow they can directly kill people and set fires. As for the little devils, as long as they are Chinese, they will kill people.
No reason is needed. Even if you want to be a submissive citizen, they will not give you this opportunity."
"Many people think that the Japs are tyrannical. In order to survive, they bow their heads in front of the Japs and let them slaughter us. But did the Japs give us a chance to live? No. The reason is very simple. Only by killing us all will it be more convenient for them.
of plundering our property.”
"We protect our homeland for the sake of our children and grandchildren. If they don't follow the same path as us, what should we do? We can only pick up the gun and fight. At the most serious level, it is for the sake of the country and the nation. At the least level, it is for ourselves.
Let’s live, so that our families can live, and so that our children and grandchildren won’t be bullied.”
Having said this, Yang Zhen took a sip of soup to moisten his throat and then said: "When you are a soldier fighting against Japanese invaders, you have to face sacrifices all the time. I think everyone knows this. But I want to say one thing, sacrifices are inevitable.
.But why can’t we find ways to reduce our sacrifices, survive, and kill more Japanese?”
"You may think that the training is very hard, and our conditions are very difficult. As you have said, the food is not as good as working for the landlord. But do you know that the training we have set
This is to enable everyone to survive on the battlefield."
"Only when you are well trained can you protect yourself. And if you protect yourself well, you can kill more Japanese. Otherwise, when there is a war, everyone will rush up in a swarm. If you die, you will die, and if you don't die, you will be picked. But you
Have you ever thought about it, doing this is a pleasure. But you have all sacrificed, who will protect your brothers and sisters, who will protect your parents, who will protect your wives and children? Only by sweating more in peacetime can you be better in war.
Less bleeding.”
"You are all raised by your parents. It is not easy for your parents to support us. How much worry and fatigue you have to worry about. No matter it is us commanders or you yourself, no one can
There is no need to die if you are not qualified."
"Yes, sacrifices are inevitable in battle. But I still say that, I can order you to die, but I am not qualified to order you to die in vain. Before you are well trained, I will
It would be a crime to send it to the battlefield."
"What happened today is due to the negligence of us commanders. We over-considered the threat posed by enemy agents to us, overestimated the difficulties we may encounter in the future, and ignored everyone's needs."
"Under the current difficult conditions, it is normal to be a little more difficult. Although the supplies that have been reserved to deal with the most dangerous situations cannot be moved, we should always think of ways to improve everyone's food and add some nutrition to everyone.
"
At this point, Yang Zhen turned to the cooking squad leader and said: "Don't we still have soybeans? Can you think of a way to make some tofu for everyone? Also, you can't hunt with guns these days, but you can find some.
Warriors who were hunters should get some snares and snare some roe deer, pheasants, rabbits, etc. Hunting is not the only way to use guns."
"Even if the quantity is not large, it is good to get some broth for everyone. A living person cannot suffocate to death. If we think of more ways, the current difficulties can still be overcome. This mountain is a huge treasure house. We always
You can't guard the treasure mountain and go hungry, right?"
After explaining to the cooking squad leader, Yang Zhen turned to Niu Er and said: "However, comrade, you said something that is wrong. A few of us did not participate in training or repairing fortifications, but when you were busy, we did not
Just rest."
"We need to formulate a combat plan, be prepared for emergencies at all times, consider you to improve your training, and even consider what we should do in the future. At night, when you are all asleep, we still have to check sentries and
We need to check the shop and study all the things we may encounter in the future. A few of us go to bed much later than you. Many times, we have no sleep all night. I don’t think we will participate in the repair work, right?
Okay? This is the only privilege we have."
After Yang Zhen said these words, almost all the soldiers remembered the Mulengzi room where Yang Zhen and his friends often stayed overnight.
