The War of Resistance

"Originally, we planned to send Gao Yuyan to Kunming, but Gao Yuyan didn't agree, and her teacher didn't agree either," Bai Zhan continued.

Bai Zhan and the others only found out after they sent Gao Yuyan to Changsha that Changsha Temporary University had been renamed Southwest Associated University, but this time the teachers and students from the three schools were going to Kunming.

"Then why don't you send her to Kunming? There are three of you in the fight against the Japanese." Shang Zhen asked.

“That’s what we say, but others also use it as an excuse.

People say they want to go to the battlefield, so how can we delay our fight against the Japanese just to send them off?

People also say that engaging in science, technology and learning is their business. Besides, this time Gao Yuyan went to Kunming with many people, so there was nothing unsafe.

We thought so and rushed back. "Bai Zhan explained.

"Are they also walking? Where is Kunming in Changsha?" Wang Laomao asked.

"Yes, they are also walking, each wearing a military uniform and a small quilt. Kunming is southwest of Changsha, so they probably have to walk thousands of miles." Bai Zhan continued to answer.

"It's not easy. There are a bunch of old pedants, a bunch of short-sighted people, a bunch of boys, and a bunch of girls." Old Mao Wang sighed.

Mr. Wang always felt that fighting and enduring hardships was only a matter of being a soldier like him, but that group of people still had to walk thousands of miles, which really made him sigh.

But then someone suddenly said: "How can it be easy these days?"

There is nothing wrong with saying this, but the person who said it is wrong, it is Hu Zhuzhu!

With a "coax" sound, the veterans all laughed.

Not to mention that Hu Zhuzi is just a fool who eats and sleeps, but when has he ever said such philosophical words? And he still refuted Old Man Wang's sentiments. For a moment, his words made Old Man Wang, who had always been in the upper hand, stunned and speechless.

Fortunately, someone spoke in time, attracting everyone's attention and easing Mr. Wang's embarrassment.

"Company Commander, there's something strange that I've been doing, and I'd like to ask you a question." The person who spoke was Zhong Ming, who belonged to the silent majority of Shang Zhen's veterans.

Seeing Shang Zhen nod his head, Zhong Ming continued: "Then you say, people like Gao Yuyan and Teacher Gao Yuyan, who have science and technology and can make weapons, are useful.

But what's the use of people who don't know any technology and can only talk about it? They don't know how to work, and they may not even be able to tell the difference between newly grown wheat and leeks. "

"Of course it will work. They can help us illiterate people write letters home!" This time it was Ma Erhuzi who spoke.

"Nonsense, who are you to say this? They can do more than just writing, but they can also do many other things and it seems useless if they can't fight the Japanese." Zhong Ming continued to express his doubts.

Ma Erhuzi fell silent. He couldn't explain this.

But this question also asked Shang Zhen to Zhuzi. In other words, Shang Zhen really hadn't thought about this question.

However, Shang Zhen was a man with a quick mind. They were sitting in the yard while listening to Bai Zhan talk about the southbound trip. Now it was not just their group of soldiers, but soldiers from the guard company also came to listen.

Wouldn't it be a bit embarrassing if I said in public that I haven't figured it out yet? The soldiers must not say that their company commander is not good enough!

So Shang Zhen said: "Do I still need to answer this question? You have to ask our scholars about this. Don't we even have several great scholars?"

He successfully changed the target and picked himself out from the middle.

When Shang Zhen said this, the group of veterans all looked at Chu Tian and Chen Hanwen, but some also looked at Gu Bing.

This reflects the different identifications of different people in their small group with educated people.

"Don't look at me. It's better to ask Brother Hanwen to answer such a profound question." Gu Bing smiled when he saw someone looking at him, and made a bowing gesture with Chen Hanwen's hands.

"Oh, but I don't dare!" Chen Hanwen was flattered. They were all sitting cross-legged on the ground, so Chen Hanwen quickly stood up.

But just as he was about to stand up, Qin Chuan behind him reached out and secretly touched the hem of his clothes behind him.

Chen Hanwen never thought that someone would mess with him behind him. Everyone knew that standing up from the ground cross-legged, his body balance was not easy to control. Chen Hanwen's body balance was lost with Qin Chuan's slightest blow.

He staggered back and almost sat back down, but Hou Kanshan behind him reached out and pushed him in time to make him stand up straight.

Qin Chuan's movements were very small, and everyone was sitting close to each other, so no one else noticed. He remained expressionless.

As for whether Hou Kanshan's expression has changed or not, it doesn't matter. His disfigured face can only be understood by the veterans who are always with him. Just like Wang Qingfeng buried Hou Kanshan, you can Don't laugh, your smile is scarier than crying!

At this time, Chen Hanwen was so focused on explaining Zhong Ming's question that he didn't care about what was behind him. After he stood up straight, he also bowed his hands, but it was directed at Chu Tian: "Brother Chu, let's do it!"

Chen Hanwen had a pedantic air when he came out, and when Chu Tian saw Chen Hanwen making this great gift, he hurriedly stood up and bowed in return.

At this time, the soldiers in the original guard company were a little confused. They really didn't know that there were also literate people among Shang Zhen's group of veterans, but there was a kind of disdain in the eyes of Shang Zhen's group of veterans, hum! Literary man!

"Okay, let's talk about it, why does something so simple become so difficult!" Mr. Wang was not happy.

When Chu Tian heard what Mr. Wang said, he stood up straight and said: "Don't think that talking about it is useless, although it can't kill a Japanese devil.

But have you ever thought about it, if there is no such thing as our own as Chinese people, then it would be like Manchukuo, where children would not learn Chinese characters or speak Chinese when they were young, but would all speak Japanese and write Japanese characters, and they would eat on their knees. , what about when they grow up? "

When Chu Tian said this, everyone present was shocked. This move of the Japanese was too poisonous!

What is Manchukuo? Isn’t that the three eastern provinces? It was their hometown in Northeast China. After the Japanese army occupied the three northeastern provinces, they took away the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty and resurrected the corpse to form the so-called Manchukuo.

Shang Zhen and others have been fighting the Japanese army in the pass, and they don't know much about the anti-Japanese situation in the Northeast. They only know that there used to be anti-Japanese volunteers there. As for the Northeast Anti-Japanese Alliance, they have never heard of it!

Then wouldn’t that place become the territory of the Japanese? The Japanese enslaved the Chinese people in Manchukuo from childhood. What do children know? When they grow up, will they still consider themselves Chinese?

This couldn't help but make every Northeastern officer and soldier present worried.

"It is said that some of the Japanese devils are Taiwanese. Isn't Taiwan also in China? But they have been ruled by the Japanese for a long time and they feel that they are Japanese. So they will beat our national army even harder than the Japanese!" Chu Tian continued, he was already a little excited, "The Japanese invaded China and fought with us with a hard knife, but when they enslaved and educated us Chinese, they used a soft knife.

To protect against hard knives, we must rely on our soldiers to fight, and to protect against soft knives, we must rely on these people.

During the Qing Dynasty, when the old Tatars entered the customs, they asked us Han people to grow braids. If the Han people didn't leave braids, they would beheaded. However, many of us Han people refused to grow braids even if their heads were beheaded, especially those old masters.

If you keep your braids for a long time, will you think that you are also a Tatar? It's like kneeling on your knees for a long time. After a long time, you can't straighten up!

At this point, can you still say that those things are useless?

To put it bluntly, it is called national identity, identifying oneself as a Chinese, but if one does not learn these things, even if he has the ability to build airplanes and cannons, he does not think that he is Chinese and does not work for us Chinese. What's the use? "

Chu Tian's scholar became more angry and talked non-stop. At least Shang Zhen and his group of veterans listened as seriously as they did now for a rare occasion.

Finally, when Chu Tian finished his speech, Shang Zhen stood up and said, "Did everyone understand?"

"I understand!" the soldiers replied loudly.

When Shang Zhen was thinking about whether he should say something more to boost his morale, Wang Qingfeng's voice suddenly rang out at an inappropriate time outside the hospital: "Shang Zhen! Mr. Wang! Send someone to me quickly, we have food, go and get it Food!”
