Curiosity drove Shang Zhen to turn around the bookshelf, and then he saw an officer holding a book in his hand and reading there.
The officer was five or six years older than him, and he had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. However, the military uniform he was wearing also looked particularly upright.
At this time, Shang Zhen also noticed that the cap badge on the big-brimmed hat worn by the officer was larger than that of the army. There were also logos on the cuffs, especially the badge, which was the most obvious, which was the two wings of a flying eagle. , and in the middle is the badge of the blue sky and white sun.
This is the Air Force.
Shang Zhen pondered for a moment before finally confirming.
Even though it has been seven years since Shang Zhen joined the army on September 18, he has never seen the current Chinese army's air force.
However, this is completely understandable.
Doesn't the flying eagle spread its wings mean the air force? If it's the Navy, there should be an anchor mark or something.
The officer didn't notice Shang Zhen turning around from the other end of the bookshelf, but he was still reading the book.
There was of course more than one book with the same title in the bookstore. Shang Zhen glanced at it and saw that the book the officer was holding should be "Poetry of the Forerunners".
He thought for a while and then touched the bookshelf.
Although the officer just recited one of the poems, Shang Zhen was still moved by the poem.
The poem was written very plainly, and although it was written in a woman's tone, it seemed heroic.
Shang Zhen's cultural level is not high, but over the years, he has almost mastered it through his own efforts. The content of this poem also touched Shang Zhen's heart. He especially remembered "Dare to sacrifice one's life for the country" ” Another sentence of “Guanshan is a heroic journey for thousands of miles” is “Longquan sounds on the wall every night.”
What's more, some poems are written out of feelings. As Shang Zhen's life experience increases, his understanding of the content of some articles and poems is naturally different from before. It doesn't matter if you don't understand the meaning of the poem when you first read it. "Poetry Man".
"Dare to sacrifice one's life for the country", the meaning of this sentence is too straightforward.
Speaking of small things, for example, Shang Zhen’s brothers who died in battle, company commander Hu Biao, his third brother Li Fushun, that old Huotou, Erhanzi, Xiao Huzi, and all those who had deep or shallow contact with Shang Zhen , some soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country in a blink of an eye even if they just said one thing.
To put it bluntly, the entire 67th Army of more than 20,000 people was defeated and only more than 400 people were left. So didn’t those more than 20,000 people who died just dare to sacrifice their lives for the country?
As for "Guanshan Ten Thousand Miles", that's because Shang Zhen is particularly sensitive to the word "Guanshan".
In his impression, the first person to mention the word "Guanshan" should be Chen Hanwen.
From the Northeast to Xi'an and then to Shanghai, and now he has arrived in Nanjing, there are thousands of mountains and mountains. How many mountains has China lost?
However, the people with aspirations of the Chinese nation still refuse to give up and are still fighting to the death with their own flesh and blood against the powerful Japanese aggressors. Isn't this just a heroic march across the country?
Let’s talk about the phrase “Longquan chimes on the wall every night.”
Of course Shang Zhen knows that Longquan refers to Longquan Sword. What is Longquan Sword? That is a weapon, just like the box firework mechanism that Shang Zhen and the others are using now.
Even though Shang Zhen didn't read much, he still knew some folklore.
The legendary Longquan Sword is hung on the wall. When it encounters an enemy attack, it will emit a dragon-like roar to warn.
The "Yeye" in "Longquan Ming on the Wall Every Night" means that the Longquan Sword makes a sound every night.
This certainly shows that there are constant invasions of foreign enemies, which makes the Longquan Sword a constant warning. On the other hand, it is also because the Longquan Sword is hung on the wall. Its owner wants to use the Longquan Sword to kill the enemy but has no chance. This is undoubtedly It embodies the sword's owner's passion to serve the country and the troubles of having no way to serve the country.
Moreover, judging from the tone of the poem, it seemed that the person who composed the poem was a woman. Shang Zhen was very curious about what kind of person this woman was.
There are thousands of women in this world, but women are different from each other.
Faced with the brutality and power of the Japanese invaders, some women were insulted and harmed, such as the vast majority of civilian women.
Some women will angrily take up arms and fight like men, such as Leng Xiaozhi and Ju Hongxia, who must have had a heated fight with Mr. Wang now.
But neither Leng Xiaozhi nor Ju Hongxia could write such a heroic poem.
Shang Zhen opened the book and turned the title page. The first poem he saw was actually the one recited by the man just now. When he saw the author of this poem, he finally realized that, No wonder she could write such a poem, it turned out to be her.
Because the author of this poem is Qiu Jin, known as the heroine of Jianhu Lake.
Shang Zhen knew Qiu Jin.
That was when he was discussing the origin of the Republic of China with others. He knew that Qiu Jin rebelled against the Qing Dynasty, and then the Republic of China came into being. It is said that Qiu Jin was older than the current person. !
Shang Zhen subconsciously turned down the page again, and then he saw the second poem.
The content of this second poem is: ""Independent and invincible, the wind is thousands of miles in the sky.
It's pity that this hero is willing to be trapped in a cage?
As soon as I crossed the sea, I raised my head high to see the blue sky.
Autumn is deep and frosty, and the trees are falling all over the mountains. "
This second poem was also written by the same heroic Qianyun. When Shang Zhen looked at the author of this poem again, it was clearly written "Huang Xing".
Since Shang Zhen knew Qiu Jin, he also knew Huang Xing.
It is said that Huang Xingna was of the same generation as Sun Yat-sen, the founding father of the country, and was older than the person who is now the highest authority in the Republic of China!
Although the current situation was difficult and the Japanese army was eyeing outside Nanjing, Shang Zhen felt lifted up after reading these two poems.
Otherwise, the power of role models is infinite.
Shang Zhen, who had already noticed his interest in reading the poem, then turned down the page again, and this time he saw the third poem. The third poem was like this: "Singing generously to Yan City, calmly being a prisoner of Chu." Quote A sword can be made quickly, and it will live up to the youth."
Oops, this poem is well written, Shang Zhen praised it heartily in his heart.
This poem is also very simple. It is obvious that the person who wrote the poem should be a young man, and listening to it gives people a feeling of passion.
It seems that the author was arrested, and then he wrote this beheading poem. Of course, it can also be called a martyrdom poem.
Even though Shang Zhen is not the kind of person who thinks richly in images, he seems to have seen a young man being tied up by someone in power, or like the people in ancient times, with a wooden shackle around his neck and being escorted through the busy city. .
But at this time, instead of being sad, he looked up and laughed and said, "Just give me a knife on the neck. Eighteen years later I will be a good man again!"
However, this time Shang Zhen looked at the author of the poem, and it was written "Wang Zhaoming", Wang Zhaoming? He had never heard of this person. "Who is this person?" Shang Zhen couldn't help but murmured in a low voice.
But at this moment, a voice came to his ear: "This one is still alive and well!"
Shang Zhen subconsciously looked up, and he saw the air force officer looking at him.
