Double Bracelets

Wang Jiyue felt sorry for Jiang Lang's meticulous heart, which was probably inherited from her parents.Her father is always black-faced all day long and tortured by work; her mother is always sick and sad: Although the husband and wife both have a tacit understanding of smiling at their daughter, the clever little girl has already noticed the pain of her parents.

After dinner, she handed Jiang Ying over, "Aunt Wang," Jiang Xijie once tried to get Jiang Ye and Jiang Ying to call Wang Jiyue another name to make her look closer, but it seemed that "Uncle" was not right, and nothing else was as good. Aunt Wang had no choice but to give up and call Wang Chanyue Xiao Wang Aunt. "Come on, stretch out your hand." According to her parents, Jiang Ying looks like Jiang Xijie when she was a child, thin, slender, and well-developed motor cells. "Here." Wang Jiyue put her emerald green jade bracelet on Jiang Ying's hand.Jiang Ying didn't know the meaning of it, and couldn't tell whether it was appropriate or not, so she dared not speak in a daze, "Go. If your parents want to ask, you just say that I gave it to you, and let them come to me if they need anything."

Back in the room, I saw that Jiang Xijie was already lying in bed.Wang Jiyue walked over quickly and sat by the bed. When Jiang Xijie saw her coming, she spoke in a tormented voice: "Why did you go?" Wang Jiyue said that she had given the bracelet to Jiang Ying, "Well...to Xiao Ying is good, but you are like this, what is it..." "If I like her, it also means that I am her aunt's wife, the elders should give her something." Hearing the word "wife", Jiang Xijie tried to open her eyes wide. Looking at Wang Jiyue, "Well..."

She was in pain, and she had to endure it at the dinner table just now.The pain made it impossible for her to find two sentences to respond to the phrase "wife" in her well-developed database of sweet words.Wang Jiyue took a towel to wipe her sweat, Jiang Xijie murmured: "Tomorrow will definitely be another damn rainy day." Judging from the degree of pain this time, it is estimated that the rain will not be heavy, but it will take another day. "Yes, it must be. You never lie." Wang Jiyue knew that she couldn't get relief. First, she couldn't get massage, acupuncture and moxibustion, and second, she didn't have painkillers, so she just said some witty words to comfort her.Unexpectedly, as soon as I finished speaking, it started to rain.

"...It's cloudy and rainy...you have to hug me..." "Okay, I'll hug you. It won't hurt if I hug you."

In the first half of my life, I will protect you with my arms, and in the second half of my life, I will use your arms as my cuddle for the rest of my life.

From winter to spring, the affairs of everyone in the family are not mentioned, nor is the suffering of Jiang Xize, who has tried his best in the staff department but has difficulty reaching the traps of his unreliable troops. Turn around and talk about Jiang Xiyao, who is alone on the front line and leads the defense.Ever since he was transferred back to Chongqing to recuperate from his injuries, he has been very anxious about the successive defeats on the front line. He challenged the old chief Chen Cheng several times, but he was ready to reject them.Now Chen Cheng was sent to Chuxiong to deal with the war in Burma. He asked for a fight again, but was still rejected.Chen Cheng's reason is that Chongqing is the most important, you stay in Chongqing for me.There is not much good steel in the national army, you are one piece, you can't put it indiscriminately.

Defensive companions, it is best to be fine.No news is good news.Apart from cooperating well with the task of arranging the air defense radar, Jiang Xiyao has nothing to do with the army. It is a rare leisure time in his military career.He can often go home when he is free, and rarely chats with his precious sister.Thinking back to when he learned that his baby sister had been injured by a bomb, he was so worried that he couldn’t get away. When he finally returned home, he was the first to see if his sister was okay—as a result, Jiang Xijie was still lying on the bed that day and moaning.

Fortunately, it's better now.Jiang Xiyao had imagined the death of his parents, but he couldn't imagine that his younger brothers and sisters would die before him. He couldn't imagine such pain.That's why now, when he has time, he tries to stay with his relatives as much as possible.Make up for the time I owe them, or the time I owe myself.

In addition to being a soldier fanatic, he also likes to read history books.Jiang Xijie went to the second-hand bookstore one day and bought a few books for him as birthday presents. They were books about the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties.He had nothing to do at his post, so he read these books carefully.Seeing from the disaster of Wang Dun in the early years of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, to Su Jun, Zu Yue, and even later Huanwen and Huanchong, could it be that the danger of the upper and lower reaches was formed based on the Yangtze River, and the upper reaches threatened the lower reaches.He thought that with the current situation, it would be very easy for the Japanese troops in Shanghai and Wuhan to threaten Chongqing. As long as the defenders in the two lakes can

able. . .

At the end of April and the beginning of May, before he had time to celebrate his younger sister’s birthday to satisfy his paralyzed and shy elder brother’s caring heart, Chen Cheng flew back from Yunnan urgently. Smuggling, the army came straight to Chongqing.

In a few days, Chen Cheng gave him an order - let him immediately lead his troops to set out to defend the Shipai Fortress {61}.

After Jiang Xiyao arrived at the front line, he surveyed the mountain and immediately started to build fortifications.According to the news from the headquarters, the number of the Japanese army is more than several times that of our army, and regardless of whether there is a chance of winning in a one-to-one ratio - it is more than materials than logistics than all hardware. In a state that is several times weaker than the enemy, victory,

Must win.As long as the fortress is not lost, it is victory.He looked at the faces of the group of soldiers who had experienced many battles with him as they worked hard and solemnly to build the fortress. Thinking of the sequence of deployment that was communicated today, he could think of the best and worst results, if he made a calculation for this , may fight to the last person, may be besieged by the Japanese army, may become a lonely fortress,

Only flesh and blood can be exchanged for victory.

However, the situation is becoming more and more unfavorable to the defenders. He doesn't know about other divisions, but he is very clear about the [-]th Division he personally leads. , like the warriors of Sparta in ancient times, waiting slowly in the dawn mist, only waiting for the king to successfully sacrifice a cow, and then he can bravely kill the enemy and move forward.

The next day, news came that the Japanese army had assembled two divisions and one brigade around Shipai, including the No. 11 Army, the only pure field force of the Japanese army in the Chinese battlefield, with a total strength of 10.Chen Cheng forwarded him the chairman's warrant, and sent him a telegram saying that he had cooperated with the river defense and air force on both sides of the strait to deploy defenses on both sides of the strait while cutting off the enemy's supplies. It's China's Stalingrad.

He knew what Chen Cheng didn't say in his telegram: it is difficult to effectively check and balance the [-] troops who are determined to win only by the Jiangfang Fort and the air force's raids. The Japanese army will still hit the door and hit the face like a straight punch. , and he and the eleventh division are the boxer's fist, the boxer's head, and the boxer's will!

Up to now, he misses Xiang Yu and refuses to cross Jiangdong. Xiang Yu was a real hero in the Battle of Julu. He thought that tomorrow should be the time to sacrifice.After nightfall, he asked his adjutant to prepare things for offering sacrifices to heaven, closed the door by himself, took out a pen and paper, and prepared to write a suicide note.

He has been in the army for many years. In the first days when he was the commander of the company, he never worried that he would die in battle, like a young driver who does not know the danger of the road.Later, I grew up a little, and after getting married and having children, I began to have a wife and children that I always cared about.Then when the Japanese invaded, he always obeyed the command, went wherever there was need, and vowed not to stop until the strategic goal was achieved.On the front lines in Shanghai and Changsha, he thought he could abandon all factional disputes and join hands with his colleagues to fight against the enemy. Although there were dirty things, he had a clear conscience. I just hate not being able to kill the enemy, and I am not afraid of dying and martyrdom.

Until returning to Chongqing for more than a year, he lost his best friend and his mother.At that time, his serious and introverted temperament realized that loyalty and filial piety cannot be both.He is simple-minded, honest and serious, and he is often ridiculed and deeply admired among his colleagues and classmates. Risk—so he also has many friends, the kind of person no one can single out.But when Fu Yuanhong's remains were sent back, he made an exception and went to Fu Fenglang and asked if he could take back the pocket watch with a broken casing left by his friend as a souvenir.Fu Fenglang thought that he was the only friend of his nephew, so he agreed.

What they didn't know was that the two good brothers bought this watch together.

He left a suicide note to his father.After my mother was gone, my father aged a lot overnight.In his memory, the appearance of his grandfather when he was a child is the appearance of his father when he grows up.After the sudden death of my mother, my father also aged instantly, even older than my grandfather.Father should be able to understand his mood at the moment, right?After both myself and my younger brother chose to join the army, my parents should be able to think of this day, right?It's either success or success.There is a son who can die for the country, and I hope the father can be proud of his son.If the son is indeed killed in battle, please take care of your father no matter what, then the son can rest in peace under the Nine Springs.

He left a suicide note to his wife.He said, I was ordered by my superiors to guard the most important stone fortress today.This battle is either victory or death, and there is no other way to go.After running the army for many years, no matter how many soldiers and horses are outside, there are many things that owe you.If I leave you now, I will just leave my old father and young son to you, and I feel very guilty.Thinking back then, I always thought that I would give you happiness in this life. Unfortunately, although I kept my promise, I never did it.For so many years, the ruler has no surplus money, nothing more than leaving the public property of the family to feed and clothe your mother and children.These relics on the battlefield are left to you, just think about them.

The next day, he brought all his teachers and soldiers to burn incense and sacrifice, "I am leading an imposing teacher to defend the land that my ancestors worked so hard to leave us. There are clear teachings in ancient times. Huayi must be strictly distinguished, and righteousness is preserved in the Spring and Autumn Period. Life is a soldier, and death is the soul of a soldier. Later generations look at the present, and especially today's look at the past. , try my best, and sacrifice myself. However, I firmly believe that the sky will protect the loyalty, and we will win the bloody battle {62}!"

On the early morning when he was waiting for the Japanese army to arrive, he woke up before dawn, holding the damaged watch in his hand, looking down at the relentless passage of time for a while, and looking at the sunrise in Xiling Gorge for a while.He firmly believed that he had tightened his own clockwork, and the clockwork of the whole division, just waiting for the other party to come and face this beast of war.

Kill the Buddha when you meet the Buddha, and kill the ancestor when you meet the ancestor!

On May 5, "The Japanese Third Division entered Yichang County from Gaojiayan, Changyang, and launched an attack on the Nanlinpo position, the first line of defense of our No. 28 Division!"

On May 5th, "The main force of the No.29 Ninth Division of the Japanese Army passed through Yujiaba and entered Caojiafan at noon. Then we divided our troops into two groups and attacked the positions of our 30th Division in Niuchangpo and Zhujiaping!"

On May 5th, "The Japanese army broke through the outer defenses and began to storm the Shipai Fortress!"

On the night of May 5, everyone in the command room breathed a sigh of relief. Jiang Xiyao asked his staff to send a telegram to Chen Cheng, saying that the Japanese army had retreated.The gunfire fell silent, and the surviving sergeants wearily congratulated each other.It was only at this time that Jiang Xiyao came back to his senses and thought about it—before winning, he only focused on the future ahead, and what was lost has already been lost—how many seventeen or eighteen people who were not as tall as guns during the three hours of silence on the battlefield yesterday afternoon The year-old child rushed up with a bayonet, blood staining the mountains and rivers.According to his estimates, the number of troops was reduced by more than 31.

He walked out of the command room alone, the moonlight shining on the position and the green Xiling Gorge.He took out his pocket watch, which was still writing quietly.He remembered what he said to Fu Yuanhong, life is a hundred years, and one will die eventually. It is only natural for a soldier to die for the country, and he deserves to die. "It is appropriate to be happy!"

He held his pocket watch quietly and shed tears silently.

The author has something to say:

{61}The following experiences all belong to the famous general Hu Lian and the glorious stone tablet defense battle in history.In this chapter, I would like to express my high respect to General Hu and the soldiers of the [-]th Division who participated in the war and died.General Chen Cheng, the commander-in-chief of the war zone, once called Hu Lian: "Are you sure about defending the fort?" Hu Lian replied firmly: "Although success is not sure, Cheng Ren is determined!" The content of the suicide note was rewritten according to General Hu Lian's suicide note. There are changes.I recommend everyone to search for the original text.

{62}Here is the original quotation.

The national army fought many useless battles during the War of Resistance Against Japan, and also won many remarkable victories. The magnificent mountains and rivers are worthy of eternal commemoration by future generations.Even though those generals of the national army have all kinds of struggles and disagreements with our ideas, we cannot deny or obliterate their achievements that should be famous in history and their truly great and righteous personalities.
