In early November of the 27th year of the Republic of China, the Japanese army invaded the northern part of Hunan.

Since the defeat in the Battle of Wuhan, institutions, schools, factories and merchants in Wuhan, as well as a large number of refugees and wounded soldiers have poured into Changsha, causing Changsha's population of more than 30 to increase to more than 50.

There were too many wounded soldiers, and the government had to issue a series of restrictions. If there were troublemakers, they could be executed on the spot.A slap in the face and another date, officials are sent to the field hospital every day to say good things, medicines and clothes will be available, trains are also being dispatched, and you will always be sent to the rear for treatment.

Chen Jingyu was well aware of this group of fat people, and she had nothing to do. It was the first time I saw her call Chongqing after I came here, and she got sulfa and other anti-inflammatory drugs every few days, and she gave them to the hospital.

On November 27th and [-]th of the [-]th year of the Republic of China, Linxiang and Yueyang fell one after another, and the Chinese and Japanese armies confronted the Xinqiang River. The situation in Changsha was very serious.

It is probably because most Chinese people have a mentality that they have nothing to do with themselves. When the Anti-Japanese War was raging, the residents of Changsha, a city that seemed isolated from the world, were not affected much.

When the battle of Wuhan was in full swing, Changsha City was peaceful with singing and dancing, industry and commerce flourished, and citizens could live a life like a peach blossom garden completely self-sufficient.Now even though the Japanese army has reached Hunan, the residents of Changsha still live according to their own lives.

Most people think that war is far away from them.

Today is the 72nd anniversary of the founding father [Note 1], and a fireworks display was held in Changsha City.After hearing this, a few lively and active young officers took the soldiers who were not on duty to the city of Changsha early in the morning.I originally made an appointment with Chen Jingyu to go together, but Chen Jingyu received a temporary meeting order, and I also had to go to the theater headquarters because of today's telegram, so this "date" was postponed until the evening.

I stayed up all night in the office last night because of the telegram translation. Chen Jingyu seemed to know about it, and sent her adjutant Xiao Huo to bring me breakfast early this morning.

Xiao Huo is actually not young, he is four or five years older than me, his real name is Huo Qihuan, Jinghuan is Huo Qubing's posthumous title, "Qi" means connecting the past and the next, his family hopes that he can become a person like Huo Qubing.

After Chen Jingyu told me his real name, he also deliberately added the meaning of the name. I don’t know much about Chinese history. Finish the thousands of years of this ancient country.

The only thing I know about Huo Qubing is that he had a general position and died young.I said quickly, and asked: "What do you hope for him? Will he die early after a happy life?"

My Chinese is actually not very good. Sometimes I subconsciously think in English and translate it directly from my mouth. So many times, the words I translate seem not so timely, just like now.

Before I could change my words, Chen Jingyu patted me on the head: "I hope he can be like General Huo, brave and good at fighting, and serve the country."

I said "hmm" and said, "I'm also here to serve the country!"

Chen Jingyu rubbed my head instead, and before I could protest, she said, "I hope you really know what you're doing."

In a word, I was so scared that I was sweating, and I didn't dare to speak again.

So I followed Chen Jingyu and called the little adjutant Xiao Huo. His real name was too convoluted for me to remember.

Xiao Huo brought me rice porridge and buns.

I have always liked meat buns, but Chen Jingyu probably felt that eating meat early in the morning was not easy to digest, so he brought me vegetables.Since I came to China, I have been forced to change my picky habits by the situation. I can bear vegetables and steamed stuffed buns. Although the white rice porridge is a bit sparse, I decided to forgive her for the sake of losing a few red dates. .

Xiao Huo was standing upright in my office when I was eating breakfast, I smiled and asked him to sit down, he snapped to attention and saluted me, "Thank you, sir", and then sat on the sofa stiffly and stiffly, without moving. Do not move.

I burst out laughing, at first I thought he was imitating his chief, but then I thought that Chen Jingyu couldn't be so serious.I tentatively said, "Relax, why are you nervous?"

"Report sir, I'm not nervous!" He stood up abruptly and snapped to attention again.

I'm helpless, it's confirmed now. "What did Chen Jingyu tell you? You were not like this when you first met me."

Xiao Huo hesitated for a moment, and squeezed out a smile that was uglier than crying: "Sir, to be honest, the first time I saw you, I saw that you were a woman, and I thought your status was similar to mine. Admirable, but it’s different for someone with the same status, they all look like a high official.”

I said "Oh", "No wonder you treated me that way, did you treat me like a high official?"

Xiao Huo hurriedly waved his hands, shaking his head like a rattle: "No, no, our officer told me that you came back from England, you said you, a little girl..."

I really couldn't listen anymore, so I interrupted him: "You are just you, what are you? Do you treat your chief all the time? What age is this? Do you really think I am Gao Yanei?"

Xiao Huo choked for a moment, then squeezed a smile, "Our officer said, you...you are a high-achieving student in Cambridge, majoring in mathematics. After returning to China, you will become a cryptography expert and specialize in deciphering Japanese army ciphers. I have learned some ciphers before, but they are very difficult. .So I really admire you very much."

Now I understand, I laughed and said, "Are you flattering me? Just pick good things for me?"

"No, sir, you...you misunderstood." He stopped for a moment, and said seriously: "Actually, I came here to deliver you steamed stuffed buns at the command of the chief, and second... I can see that you are very familiar with our chief. , our officer is also very kind to you. So I thought... can you persuade her?"

"Advice for what?"

"Sir, she wants to go to the battlefield with all her heart, but her family doesn't let her. Everyone in the division cherishes her. They say she is a staff officer, but in fact she is a quartermaster squatting in the rear. She also has a big temper, and she keeps everything in her heart. It's not good for your health, just..." Xiao Huo paused while talking, looking at my face.

I nodded and agreed, "I know, I will."

After Xiao Huo left, I ate something hastily.After swallowing the last mouthful of porridge, I opened the locked drawer and took out the telegram that I had stayed up all night to translate.There are bold Chinese characters on it, the number of words is not many, but it is shocking.

I don't know what to do with this telegram.Put it in a drawer, for fear of being seen by interested people, and I will be executed on the spot for treason when the time comes.The best way is to burn it now, pretending not to know anything, anyway, I am in the barracks, it cannot be burned here, it is very safe.

But if it burns...

I pursed my lips and stared at the telegram for a long time. I wanted to take the lighter several times, picked it up and put it down, lit it and extinguished it, and finally decided to put it next to my body.

If it burns, I just stand by and pretend I don't know anything, how can I be worthy of my ancestors.On the map that Chen Jingyu pointed out to me in Cambridge, the area has been reduced by more than half. The old people are gone, and the homeland is gone. Now Changsha can no longer exist.

After going downstairs, I saw Chen Jingyu leaning on the jeep to read a document.Although she is leaning on her back, her back is still very straight, which actually shows her high demands on herself and her super high military quality, but when it comes to wearing a military uniform, there is only one word in my eyes that can describe her: nice.

I slowly moved forward and stood in front of her.Probably because I blocked her light, she first frowned slightly, then raised her head impatiently, and opened her mouth to reprimand.

But when she looked up and found that the person standing in front of her was me, she was stunned, swallowed the reprimand, and the expression on her face quickly returned from impatient to her usual gentleness towards me.

I raised my eyebrows and asked her: "I asked Xiao Huo to bring me breakfast in the morning, and now I come to supervise me to eat breakfast in person? Am I making you worry so much?"

Chen Jingyu put away the documents and put them in the car casually, "Is it okay to be early?"

"just OK."

Chen Jingyu smiled and shook his head, knowing my resentment towards Roubaozi, he rubbed my head before I had time to put on the hat, "Next time, I will bring it to you next time."

Chen Jingyu actually came to see me off. I was surprised when she let me into the car. I looked around and there was no Xiao Huo, "Where is your adjutant?"

"Sent out to go shopping by myself." Seeing that there were not many people on the road, Chen Jingyu accelerated, "He has been suffering with me for a while, and it happens to be a holiday today, so I can count it as a rest for him."

As soon as she said that, I remembered what Xiao Huo told me. "You are so sympathetic to your subordinates, when will you be sympathetic to yourself?"

Chen Jingyu was driving the car, and turned his head to look at me after hearing this, "Why did you say this suddenly?"

In fact, I noticed when I got to her just now that her face was tired and her eye circles were darkened.Xiao Huo said that she hasn't had a good night's sleep since Linxiang fell.She can't go to the front line, at least she still has a staff post. Now that the whole division knows that the war is about to start, the staff department is so busy that she also goes to the meeting. The whole staff department takes turns to be on duty, but she is always there.

The Tin Woodman couldn't bear it, let alone her.

The place where Chen Jingyu held the meeting was in the police command hall in the suburbs of Changsha. Originally, it only took ten minutes to travel from the division headquarters to the command hall, but she accidentally took a detour of dozens of kilometers to see me off, so now she has no time left. Just enough to go back.

I wanted to talk to her again, but seeing that it was too late, I had no choice but to give up and waved to her: "You go first, I'll go straight back to the city after the meeting."

Chen Jingyu nodded, backed the car and said with a smile, "See you later."

"See you soon."

I watched her go away, and touched the piece of paper hidden in my chest to make sure it was safe, and then turned and entered the theater headquarters.

The author has something to say: [Note 1]: The founding father is Mr. Sun Yat-sen.
