War will only bring blood and pain. Xie Xuan hates this war very much. He hopes to end this war as soon as possible, even if he sacrifices his life for it.
Lurking in the enemy camp, Xie Xuan was ready to sacrifice at any time.
Once the Japanese and puppets knew what he had done, they would definitely not spare his life, and he did not expect to live until the day when the anti-Japanese war was won.
If one day he dies, the world may never know him, but the party knows him, the mountains and rivers know him, the motherland knows him, and history will remember him. This is enough.
Naomi Ueno was leaning on Xie Xuan's shoulder, seemingly asleep. He didn't dare to move, so he could only let her lean against him.
Xie Xuan looked at the scenery outside the window. The mountains and rivers of the motherland were so beautiful, but this land was ravaged by the Japanese invaders.
One day, after the Japanese invaders are driven out and the country becomes peaceful, he must find a picturesque place to live quietly, write and read every day, find a wife, have a pair of children, and live an ordinary life.
Even though Xie Xuan seems to be in a high and powerful position, in his heart he desperately longs for the life of an ordinary person.
In the area controlled by the Japanese and puppets, they passed three checkpoints. Xie Xuan and Ueno Naomi were traveling as husband and wife. They also prepared relevant documents and even made a fake marriage certificate.
When passing the checkpoint, everyone must get out of the car and undergo inspection.
"Open your luggage and check!"
The soldiers at the checkpoint were ferocious. They showed off their power in front of ordinary people. If they really wanted to encounter the New Fourth Army, they would probably run faster than anyone else.
When the sentry saw Ueno Naomi as beautiful as a flower, he smiled lewdly in his eyes, pointed at Ueno Naomi and said, "You, go to the front and search me."
"Boss, we are going to Dongtai to visit relatives, and we didn't bring any contraband."
Xie Xuan immediately came over, took the sentry's hand, and smiled humbly.
The sentry asked doubtfully: "Visiting relatives?"
"My aunt's son's cousin's 60th birthday. Let's go celebrate his birthday and ask the boss to show his respect."
The sentry waved his hand: "Since we are visiting relatives, let's go."
Naomi Ueno had long been furious. She had never seen such bad behavior.
What she hates the most is that not only Chinese soldiers plundered ordinary people along the way, but also Japanese soldiers.
Some people just want to take some common people's things and let them go without checking.
Xie Xuan took Ueno Naomi's hand and said, "Damn it, let's go quickly."
After Naomi Ueno got in the car, she asked softly: "What did you give him just now?"
Xie Xuan said: "Two dollars."
Ueno Naomi said: "No wonder Wang Mingzhao's troops have no combat effectiveness and collapsed at the first contact with the New Fourth Army. It really makes sense."
After passing Taizhou, the New Fourth Army also set up a checkpoint.
Ueno Naomi was curious and a little nervous because she brought a radio and hid two guns.
If he is discovered by the New Fourth Army, he will definitely be treated as a spy.
I heard that when the New Fourth Army caught spies, many of them were shot.
The uniforms of the New Fourth Army are not new, and many of them have been patched. However, the uniforms are clean and tidy. The faces of the young soldiers are full of seriousness, and their eyes are not angry but powerful, or in other words, there is murderous intent in their eyes.
This spirit immediately outshone the puppet troops.
Naomi Ueno sighed secretly, the weapons of the New Fourth Army were indeed very poor, but their combat effectiveness was much higher, as you can see from these soldiers.
The leader of the class was very polite: "Fellow fellows, please hold your IDs in your hands, we want to check them."
The soldiers at the checkpoint must be literate, which is very difficult for them.
The certificates of Xie Xuan and Ueno Naomi were both from formal departments.
Although the soldiers looked carefully, they found nothing unusual.
In fact, Xie Xuan knew that there were still flaws.
For example, the certificate is very new.
Even if he deliberately rubbed the certificate, it can still be seen that the evidence was not released for a long time.
However, these soldiers were inexperienced and did not see it.
"Oh, this is a terrible force."
After returning to the car, Naomi Ueno lay in Xie Xuan's ear and whispered.
Xie Xuan said casually: "They can only rely on this method to win people's hearts."
In fact, he was very excited just now.
Seeing the soldiers wearing the uniforms of the New Fourth Army, he felt as if he were seeing relatives.
Xie Xuan was not afraid that the New Fourth Army soldiers would see any flaws, but he was only worried that Naomi Ueno would notice something strange.
Ueno Naomi sighed and said: "You can tell by the subtle things. It can be seen that this is a force with strict discipline and loves the people like children. Such a force will march forward bravely and unstoppably when fighting."
The Japanese army's military discipline is also very strict. However, from what she saw and heard along the way, she felt that the Japanese army's discipline was getting worse and worse. On the contrary, it was the New Fourth Army, which worried her.
Once the weapons of the New Fourth Army are the same as those of the Japanese army, I am afraid that the Japanese army will no longer be the opponent of the New Fourth Army.
Such a terrifying opponent must not be allowed to become stronger.
If we can use Hua Zhongyang's troops to wipe out the surrounding New Fourth Army this time, it will be considered a great achievement.
As we approached Dongtai County, we reached the territory of the national army again.
The performance of the national army is similar to that of the puppet army.
As long as you give some money, you can pass smoothly.
If you don't give money, you can just give two eggs, or you can say something nice and sell a little bit, and you can pass the test smoothly.
After all, there are many miserable people these days, and everyone has a handful of bitter tears.
After arriving in Dongtai County, Xie Xuan and Naomi Ueno did not go looking for anyone, but stayed at a Shunchang Hotel on Gulou Road.
There was only one room opened by Naomi Ueno herself.
They are a "husband and wife", so naturally they only need one room.
Xie Xuan said: "Now that we are here, there is no need to use the identity of husband and wife anymore."
Ueno Naomi said deliberately: "Our expenses are not enough to open two rooms? What a waste."
She got a good room, and Xie Xuan had no choice but to carry her luggage and follow her into the room.
Shunchang Hotel is considered a relatively good hotel in Dongtai County. In addition to a bed, the room also has a table, two stools, and a washstand.
Of course, it is impossible to have a phone, carpet, bathroom and so on like Shenpu.
There were no curtains, just paper covering the windows.
But it also operates a restaurant. You can go to the first floor to dine, or you can have the food delivered to your room.
After Xie Xuan saw the furnishings of the room clearly, he immediately said: "I will make the floor, and you will sleep on the bed."
"This bed is wide enough for you to sleep on. The ground is too cold."
Xie Xuan asked: "Shangmei, what is the purpose of coming to Dongtai County this time?"
He now has a headache and can only avoid talking until he thinks of a good solution.
In fact, Xie Xuan was thinking about this issue along the way.
But, so far, I haven't thought of a good way.
Ueno Naomi said: "I want to meet someone, and I have already made an appointment at the time and place."
