"Sir!" Shang Zhen stood at attention and said.
Although Shang Zhen saw an Air Force officer for the first time, he looked at the officer's dress and knew that his rank was a colonel.
You must know that the military rank of a colonel is not low. Generally speaking, the regiment commander is a colonel, and if the colonel is higher up, he is a division commander, and that is a major general.
And Shang Zhen is now dressed as a soldier. Even if the original company commander's rank is still there, he is still a captain.
Therefore, calling someone "Sir" is not a loss at all.
"Huh?" Shang Zhen just called "sir". The air force officer was stunned for a moment, and then asked with a face of joy: "From the three eastern provinces?"
Shang Zhen quickly responded "Yes" and then asked: "Sir, too, right?"
Hearing what Shang Zhen said, the officer smiled: "We Northeasterners only have brothers and no officers." Apparently he had admitted that he was from the Northeast.
Although Shang Zhen had previously heard that the officer had a Northeastern accent when he recited poetry, he was also happy that he knew that he was from the Northeast.
People from the three northeastern provinces have always been a trinity. When introducing me to others, they usually say that I am from the northeast, and then say which province I am from.
It is undoubtedly a joy to meet fellow Northeasterners in a place like Nanjing.
Speaking of accent, it's like the later generations popularizing Mandarin. People in the three northeastern provinces always think that what they speak is standard Mandarin, but to the ears of southerners, it sounds like a big lump, and people will be confused when they hear it. I know you are from Northeast China!
Because of this, the air force colonel only heard Shang Zhen call "sir" and recognized the northeastern accent in Shang Zhen's speech.
At this point, the two people started talking.
But at this time, the two people temporarily forgot to talk about the poem and talked about the war.
"Veteran?" the air force colonel asked Shang Zhen.
"The kid became a soldier the day before he took over the Beida camp." Shang Zhen replied quickly.
"Oh? Were you at Peking University Camp at that time?" The air force colonel asked Shang Zhen again.
"Yes, sir." Shang Zhen replied sternly.
"I told you that you don't need to call me sir. My surname is Gao. It seems that you are not as old as me. What's your surname?" The air force colonel said again.
"If your surname is Shang, the other name is Shang Zhen." Shang Zhen replied.
"Shang Zhen?" Zhang Zhen's answer made the air force colonel slightly absent-minded, and then he said, "Your name is very particular!"
"Huh?" Shang Zhen was a little dazed. No one had ever said that his name was special since he was a child.
"Such a shock, the tragedy of Cathay!" the air force colonel sighed.
Shang Zhen didn't understand what the air force colonel meant, and he was embarrassed to ask, so he could only listen. Little did he know that the air force colonel in front of him was associated with the current situation by his name, Shang Zhen.
"Shang" and "Shang" have the same pronunciation, and Cathay is one of the ancient names of China.
The tragedy of Cathay does not mean that the Chinese people are currently suffering.
Shang Zhen waited for a moment, and the air force colonel got rid of the association with Shang Zhen's name. Then he asked again: "You have fought many battles, have you ever killed Japanese devils?"
Shang Zhen couldn't say his true record in fighting the Japanese, so he could only say "yes".
"Really?" the air force major surnamed Gao asked.
"Of course it's true. I've already fished it out, and if I beat him to death, I'll make all the money!" Shang Zhen replied.
"Good! You didn't embarrass us Northeasterners!" the air force colonel praised.
After hearing what the air force colonel said, Shang Zhen took another look at the other party's straight military uniform and finally couldn't help but asked curiously: "You are from the air force, do you fly a plane?"
"Of course, I have fought with Japanese planes in the sky!" Colonel Gao replied.
Shang Zhen was shocked and almost blurted out "Really?"
You must know that since the fight against the Japanese began, Shang Zhen and the others were fed up with the Japanese aircraft.
Although they once shot away Japanese aircraft, that was really just a coincidence.
If the battle between two nations is based solely on luck and coincidence, then the weaker nation will be destroyed sooner or later!
And now this major named Gao actually said that he had flown a plane and fought with Japanese aircraft in the sky. How could this not surprise Shang Zhen?
This is completely conceivable. The Chinese army is fed up with the Japanese planes, so how could the soldiers not say, if only we could fly planes in the sky!
Obviously, the air force colonel surnamed Gao saw Shang Zhen's disbelieving look and smiled and said: "You may be in the war and don't have time to read newspapers. Since you are also literate, you can just check the newspapers when you have time."
Shang Zhen saw that the air force major surnamed Gao didn't seem to be hypocritical when he spoke, so he was too embarrassed to ask any more questions.
After all, his military rank is colonel, and he is just an ordinary soldier.
The two continued to chat, and through the introduction of the air force colonel, Shang Zhen learned that Wang Zhaoming turned out to be the number two figure in the National Government.
When that guy was young, he went to assassinate a high-ranking official of the Qing Dynasty. However, the assassination failed and he was caught instead. So he wrote this beheading poem in prison.
However, he also wrote a poem about beheading, but he did not die. As the saying goes, if you survive a catastrophe, you will be blessed later. Slowly, he became one of the important figures in the National Government.
Leading the knife into a piece lives up to the young man's head. How heroic this poem is!
Although it is said that Shang Zhen would never do anything to die with the Japanese army if it was not necessary during the battle, it does not mean that he does not have great pride in his heart.
Just when Shang Zhen was about to praise Wang Zhaoming for his good poetry, they suddenly heard a shrill siren sounding. It was an air defense siren!
When they heard the siren, Shang Zhen and the Air Force Colonel Gao were shocked. They were also soldiers in the Air Force, not to mention the shrill siren, which was an air defense alarm.
And just as the alarm sounded, the Air Force Colonel Gao put down the book in his hand and ran out the door.
"I'll just go out and read for a while. The little devil's plane is here right now. If I don't go up to the sky today, I'll shoot down a few more for you!" At this time, Shang Zhen followed the air force colonel surnamed Gao and ran towards the door of the house. Just listen to what others said.
"Let me see if I don't go up to the sky today and I'll fight a few more fights for you!" After hearing these words, Shang Zhen felt his chest heat up. Is this officer going to fly a Chinese plane into the sky to fight the Japanese army?
"I forgot to ask, what's your name, sir?" Shang Zhen, who ran to the door of the bookstore, shouted from behind. At this time, the high-tech air force colonel had already left the room and ran away.
"My name is Gao Yuhang!" At this time, the officer turned around and shouted, then turned around and ran away. From then on, he never looked back again.
"Gao Yuhang?" Shang Zhen muttered to himself. He thought to himself that it sounded like this commander was very powerful. He should really find a newspaper and read it. He must be famous for coming to the Chinese Air Force to shoot down Japanese aircraft. It's just something I don't know.
But what Shang Zhen didn't expect was that he no longer needed to read the newspaper.
A few minutes later, Shang Zhen returned to the gate of the 1st Gendarmerie Regiment and met He Liang who came out.
When he mentioned Gao Yuhang to He Liang, He Liang said in surprise: "You actually met Gao Yuhang!
You must know that he destroyed 6 Japanese planes. He is called the Eagle of our Chinese Air Force! "
