Chapter 209

In the early morning of July 8, 1937, Lin Junmai was awakened by the ringing of the telephone. Only then did he know that the Japanese suddenly attacked Lugouqiao and the war broke out in an all-round way.

The war was in his expectation.

In one day, China's territory was in flames, its sovereignty was lost, and it was in dire straits everywhere.

In the excitement of long planned conquest of Chinese territory, the Japanese army rushed to the Chinese army with bayonets and guns. Where the iron hooves went, the mountains and rivers were covered with white bones.

Their bloodiness and barbarism stunned the central army for a while. They were unable to resist and retreated day by day. Every day, a larger area of their territory was brought into the scope of Japanese devastation.

The Japanese side is even more arrogant, clamoring to "perish and occupy the whole of China in three months.", In August of that year, he launched the "Songhu incident" to capture Shanghai with the intention of Nanjing.

In the whole economy of China, Jiangsu and Zhejiang are rich and industrially developed

If the Japanese invaders were allowed to drive straight in, the consequences would be unimaginable. So the Chinese army put in the most elite training division of the central government, dispatched more than 800000 of the most elite troops in the surrounding areas, and fought fiercely with more than 200000 Japanese invaders in Shanghai area, in order to cover the evacuation of rear industrial personnel to the Western safe area.

Lin Junmai's troops were organized into the tenth army. The month after the battle of Songhu, he received a telegram order to enter Shanghai.

He strictly prohibited his subordinates from divulging information to their families in France, and wrote their wills in advance, so as to prevent him from giving an account to his family in case of any accident.

On the eve of leaving for Shanghai, some people came to join the army, especially for him.

Shino.

Yao ji.

Lin Junmai picked a sword eyebrow. In his memory, he was just a scholar. He had no power to bind a chicken. He was used to singing romantic songs, but also had a feeling that he couldn't tell his wife clearly.

"A great talent wants to join the army?"

He thought that Xi Nuo was looking for inspiration on the battlefield, and his tone was slightly ironic

Thorn.

"Everyone is responsible for the national crisis. All my savings and flesh and blood are ready to be donated to the country. " Xi Nuo has lofty ambition and lofty feelings in his words.

Lin Junmai was surprised. He didn't expect that he still had the backbone.

"Take your own clothes. Follow me. " He handed his pistol to Shino. "Can you use it?"

Xi Nuo took off his long shirt on the spot, picked up his uniform and put it on his body. His body was straight, just like a well-trained party and state soldier.

"Try, try."

He challenged Lin Junmai.

Lin Junmai, holding the ringing telephone, casually answered, "brother, let's leave the bullets to the enemy. Write a suicide note. "

The Japanese army's madness and barbarism were unexpected. The Chinese Army's performance on the battlefield surprised all sides. When the tanks charged, the infantry would not cover and take advantage of the favorable terrain. After the tanks were killed by the Japanese army, the infantry suffered heavy casualties under the Japanese attack. A battalion of the central army was killed by a small pair of Japanese soldiers in the alley.

The flesh and blood of the national army was killed by the Japanese as a target. The corpses filled the alleys. The brain and blood mixed and flowed on the ground, so that when the corpses were collected later, it was impossible to tell who was the girl in the dream. For the first time in a long period of time, the central army, which has been well maintained for many years, fully appreciated the horror and ferocity of the Japanese army, so the rear had to constantly build up additional troops to supplement the heavy casualties on the front line.

In September, Lin Junmai's army was transferred to Luodian and incorporated into the 18th army. The Japanese army relied on heavy artillery and planes to open the way, followed by infantry charging frantically, and the Chinese army refused to fight to the death.

Each brigade issued a military order: the officers and men of the brigade vowed to live and die together with the position, and those who advance will live, and those who retreat will die.

No success, no benevolence.

Several Japanese attacks were resisted, and the mode of adding troops to the fire was started. The shells were all over the ground, roaring to the garrison position, and the flames were rising everywhere, and the limbs were flying. After the bullets were finished, the National Army rushed out of the trench to fight with the enemy. The tank came up and rushed over with a grenade tied on its body to die with it.

Fighting is like a millstone, crushing the flesh and blood of Lin Junmai's comrades.

At the end of the month, Luodian was lost and its corpses piled up like a mountain. The whole town was in ruins, only a sea of scorched earth and blood.

When burying the bodies of the martyrs, many soldiers were still in an angry charging posture when they died, climbing forward with one hand, and their chest had been punctured by a bullet.

He who saw it shed tears.

This battle is known as the "meat and blood millstone".

Lin Junmai was scratched by shrapnel in the fierce battle. He endured the pain and insisted on commanding at the front line, which delayed the treatment time. After he withdrew, he was in a coma with a high fever for a whole week.

The news of the battle of Songhu spread to France, and WAN Yingru was the first to sit still.

"If the beginning, Jun Mai, he must go to the battlefield, no, I want to go back."

"Isn't the telegram from home saying it's standing by?"

"How can it be? He won't tell us. He must be on the battlefield,

It must be on the battlefield. "

Wan Yingru bought a plane ticket to Hong Kong. She couldn't stay in France for a moment and left in a hurry.

Qiao ruochu pays close attention to the news of the Sino Japanese war every day. Although the Songhu war did not win, the flesh and blood and loyalty of Chinese soldiers have caused an uproar among overseas students.

Many generals studying abroad gave up their studies one after another. After returning to China, they immediately put themselves into the battlefield. Gu Jun, who was practicing medicine while doing business in France, hesitated when he received an invitation from Huang Wei, an officer studying in Germany, to come back with the army. He was afraid of leaving, so he never met Qiao ruochu again.

Although Qi Yuxuan and Zhu Zhushang did not return home immediately, they went to the streets all day to collect money. All the money they got was donated back to China through Chinese embassies abroad for the war of resistance against Japan.

More and more Chinese in the school spontaneously organized themselves and tried their best to help fight in China.

Originally really thought that Lin Junmai also stationed troops in Xiangcheng, Qiao Ruochuan became more and more uneasy day by day.

Since Lin Junmai left last time, she only received three letters from him,

All the dates before the war, she could not help doubting that he had indeed gone to war.

Even after Wan Yingru returned home, she kept calling home, probably because the cable was destroyed by the war. Ten times, seven or eight times, she couldn't get through to her home and couldn't find anyone.

She sent a telegram back, and for a long time she received song Yanqi's reply: Madam, your husband is fighting in the front line, so you can have a good life. Big lady.

Little day.

How ironic.

It turns out that he really took a concubine.

After Qiao ruochu received the telegram, he sat quietly on the balcony with his child for a whole day.

When she left that day, her husband didn't wake her up. They didn't even say goodbye.

At dinner time, she saw the news in the newspaper that Xinuo, once a great talent, was fighting against foreign aggression for her motherland on the battlefield of Songhu.

Xi Nuo enjoys a high reputation in the international literary world, and his trend is naturally known by foreign media.

If the domestic war is not tragic to a certain extent, Xi Nuo's romantic character is not likely to join the army immediately.

She couldn't imagine.
