Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Although Yang Zhen's tone was calm, his words made the two acting political commissars sweat in cold sweat. Yang Zhen's estimate was correct. The cadres in the army, especially those at the grassroots level who were from the labor force, had no regard for these puppet Manchukuo soldiers.  The soldiers were very discriminatory and even looked down upon.  [.Com text] The reason why conflicts have accumulated to this day has a lot to do with those grassroots cadres.

    Looking at the two acting political commissars who were speechless by what he said, Yang Zhen, who understood the truth of the matter and was really right by what he said, shook his head and did not continue, but said: "You go and kill the two who started the attack.  Find them for me, and I¡¯ll talk to them. Remember, I¡¯m looking for them, not arresting them.¡±

    When the two acting political commissars heard Yang Zhen's words, they hurriedly retreated as if they were being amnesty.  Not much time left, the two men had bruises on their noses and swollen faces, and they were as good as pig heads.  The two soldiers, whose military uniforms were torn into tatters and with the cotton underneath exposed, were sent to Du Kaishan's headquarters.

    Seeing the embarrassed two people, Yang Zhen smiled slightly, pointed to the two simple stools in front of him and said: "Don't be nervous, all sit down. Don't think of me as the leader today, just think of me as your brother.  . Let¡¯s talk relaxedly, okay?¡±

    Although the political commissar did not tell him who wanted to see him, he saw that the division chiefs who usually kept their word were standing aside and did not dare to say a word. They knew that the person who came must be a high-ranking official. The two of them were very reserved.  Although Yang Zhen behaved very kindly, the two of them still looked very nervous in front of this high official.  I have never dared to sit on the stool under my butt.

    Seeing that the two people were still afraid to sit down, Yang Zhen stood up and pulled his stool to the two people. He forced the two hesitant people to the stool, and then he sat down with his butt.  He said in front of the person: "Come and tell me, what are your names and where are you from? How old are you this year? Is there anyone else in your family? Have you read books? How did you become a soldier?"

    The recruit on the left was very nervous and did not dare to answer Yang Zhen's question for a long time.  On the other hand, the recruit on the right seemed much more straightforward when he heard Yang Zhen's question. He stood up and said at attention: "Sir, my name is Yang Jicai. I am 18 years old. I am from Chengguan, Kaiyuan County, Fengtian Province. I just graduated from the puppet army last year.  Graduated from Manguo High School and was drafted into the national army this year.¡±

    "My family originally had a total of eight people, but now there are only five left. My eldest brother Yang Jixin was in high school in Shenyang, just in time for the September 18th Incident. Unwilling to be a subjugated slave, he entered the country and became an exiled student. Now he is  I don¡¯t know whether he is alive or dead. My second brother Yang Jili joined the Liaoning People¡¯s Anti-Japanese Self-Defense Army and was later captured by the Japanese together with General Miao Kexiu.¡±

    "Now there are only five people left in the family: me, a younger brother, a younger sister, and my father and mother. This time Manchukuo recruited national soldiers, I was not included in the draft, but the Japanese director of the county police station said that there were rebels in my family.  It is the tradition of Manchukuo to resist Japan. I must become a national soldier to show my loyalty to Manchukuo. If I don¡¯t go, I will become a national soldier.  Gendarmerie, right? How many of the people who got in there got out alive?"

    "It was wrong for me to take action today, but they can say whatever they say, but I really can't accept it when they call us dogs. We are not willing to wear those yellow clothes if we can help it. Who doesn't know that it is shameful to be a traitor? Is there any way?  What can we do? Our family is poor and we have to tighten our belts to save money for school. Where can we buy off the military recruiter? "

    "It's hard and tiring for them to be laborers. But how good are we? They live a life that is worse than pigs and dogs, but our life is easier? During the training of recruits, if a movement cannot be done correctly, a Japanese instructor  I won¡¯t stop until your nose bleeds.¡±

    "I'm pretty good at it. I understand Japanese, my comprehension ability is pretty good, and I'm a quick learner. But just like that, I often get beaten for unknown reasons. Sometimes the Japanese instructors are in a bad mood and ask us to slap each other in the face.  Don¡¯t stop until it¡¯s swollen. It¡¯s also called Xie He Mou.¡±

    "As for those who don't understand Japanese, they are even more unlucky. Being beaten during training is commonplace. Some people are often knocked unconscious. When the Japanese instructors beat them, their own superiors also beat them. After the beating, they were punished by not being able to eat. When did you do something right?  When will we let you go back to rest? When you sleep at night, you have to wait for the dog after serving the Japanese instructor. How did we survive?"

    When this person talked about his family background, Yang Zhen's heart suddenly moved.  He had heard Xiao Huzi say before that when he was in the Eighth Route Army, he once talked to him in detail about his family background.  I mentioned that my current hometown in Northeast China is in Chengguan, Kaiyuan County, Fengtian Province.  Yang Zhen's name was changed after he participated in the revolution. His original name was also Yang Jixin.

    When??I also told him personally that I have three younger brothers in my hometown and a younger sister who is about the same age as him.  .  If he died in the Anti-Japanese War, let him return to his hometown to take care of his parents when the revolution was victorious.  He even joked at the time that if he didn't marry a wife by then, he would marry his sister to him.

    Two days ago, when Xiao Huzi was in a good mood, he even jokingly asked himself.  The troops have now liberated the entire Sanjiang Province of Manchuria.  If it continues to develop at this rate from now on, the day when it reaches Fengtian Province will not be far away.

    By that time, it will really be time to go back to your hometown.  If the day comes to fight back to Fengtian, then don't forget the promise you made when you were in the pass, and promise your sister to him as his wife.

    Could this person be his younger brother in this life?  The name is right, the population of the family is not bad, and the place of birth is also correct.  Yang Zhen rubbed his face and looked carefully at this recruit who was a soldier of the Puppet Manchukuo country.  Don't tell me, the eyebrows and eyes are really similar to mine.

    Seeing that the chief officer in front of him looked a little lost after hearing what he said, Yang Jicai closed his mouth and did not dare to say anything more.  He just stood there with a straight Japanese military posture.

    Yang Zhen's absence did not last long before he woke up.  Looking at the upright Yang Jicai standing in front of him, Yang Zhen waved his hand to signal him to sit down, and then said to another person: "Don't be formal. I said that today I am your brother, and I will speak out what is on my mind. He has said it."  , wouldn¡¯t you be at a disadvantage if you didn¡¯t tell me?¡±

    After hearing what Yang Zhen said, this originally extremely cautious recruit also stood up.  But once you stand up, you can see the difference.  Yang Jicai stood upright, which showed that he had received strict training.  When he stood up, his body was not as straight as Yang Jicai's.  Although it's not weird, it can't be said to be regular either.

    After standing up, he looked at Yang Zhen, then at Yang Jicai beside him, and said cautiously: "Sir, my name is Liu Heiwa, I am nineteen years old, and I am from Tianjin. There is no one at home. My father is gone."  It was early, and we were the only two in the family. I originally had an older brother, but when the 29th Army withdrew southward in the year of the July 7th Incident, I was the only one left at home.¡±

    "Originally, I was working as a laborer on the dock carrying big bags. It was a bit hard, but I still had food to eat. In the beginning of spring this year, when everyone and I were waiting for work at the dock, the little devil didn't know why.  , suddenly surrounded the Tianjin Port Terminal and arrested all the workers inside. "

    "After they were arrested, they didn't ask any questions. After three days of starvation, they were put on a train and shipped directly to Fujin to work as laborers. No one in the family knew about it when they came, and I don't know how I am doing. We are here.  , I was whipped in the morning before dawn, and I could only go back to sleep for a while at midnight. After eating a pack of cigarettes, I was so hungry that I felt like I was on my back.¡±

    "They didn't even give me any clothes. I was wearing the same clothes I had when I came here. When they were worn out, I had to find a cement bag to put over my body. It gets cold early in Beijing, and it starts to frost at night in October. I don't have any clothes.  Wearing only cement bags, they are too cold to sleep at night. If they are sick, they will not be treated. If they are still angry, they will be thrown into the ravine and left to be mauled by wild beasts.¡±

    "Of the more than 300 of us workers who were captured, by the time we were rescued by the troops, there were only more than 100 people left. If we wait through this winter, I'm afraid not even these 100 people will be left. Sir, we  It¡¯s true that we hate the little devils, but we hate the second devils who are working for us even more.¡±

    "The leaders who led us were all genuine Chinese, and they were even crueler to us than the little devils. If we worked a little slower, the pickaxes and belts would knock them off our faces. Sometimes the devils would give us some wages, and they would  They were greedy. They also deducted our rations very much. They were greedy for half of it, and the rest was not even enough for the bottom."

    "Those of us who are laborers, almost none of us has not been tortured by traitors. Our fortification work in Fujin was not good enough, and most of the supervisors were Japanese and Koreans. Those who worked for the Japanese garrison in Jiamusi  The brothers of laborers suffered more from traitors. Sometimes these idiots were more hateful than the little devils. When I was in Tianjin Wei, I often heard people say that they were not afraid of the little devils. "

    "I scolded them today for being wrong, but they shouldn't say that we are stupid, even a donkey is smarter than us. We have only been soldiers for less than a month, can we compare with them? Can I compare with them?  Although we are uneducated, we also know that we need to eat this meal in one bite.¡±

    After listening to the words of the two people, Yang Zhen did not answer them, but smiled and asked: "How about it? The training task is heavy now, can you eat well? Is the food enough? Are the clothes on your body warm? I will not sleep at night.  Is it cold inside? The winter in northern Manchuria is not the same as in southern Manchuria.It is comparable to Tianjin in Guanhai.  "

    After Yang Zhen finished speaking, the two of them were obviously surprised.  Especially Yang Jicai, who had become accustomed to the stick-style training method of raising his hands and hitting in the puppet Manchukuo army, was even more shocked.  After a while, he stood up and said: "Sir, the food is enough. During training, the commander never punishes people corporally. Although the training intensity is a bit more intense, it is much better than when he was in the Puppet Manchukuo army."

    "At night, the superiors at all levels also asked people to heat up the fire cages, and boiled the foot washing water early. They also checked the bunks from time to time. Those who had quilts also helped to cover the quilts. All levels  As long as the commander is not on the training ground, he is usually very concerned about our lives. There must be a meal of meat a day, although it is not much, each person can only get a few pieces, but it is good that it is meaty. "

    Yang Zhen looked at the young man in front of him, who was probably his brother. He waved his hand and motioned for him to sit down and said, "You must remember, don't call your superiors. You can address your superiors by their job titles. For those of us here,  In the army, there is no difference except for the different positions. We are all brothers who live and die together."

    "No matter how different your backgrounds were before, you are all on the same battlefield now. Now you all have a common ideal, which is to fight the Japanese and save China. Why do you, including me, do this? Because we all  Regardless of you or me, we all have the same name: Chinese.¡±

    "We are fighting under the same flag now. We are comrades-in-arms and brothers. We are brothers who live and die together and can take bullets for you on the battlefield. When you get to the battlefield, you have different origins. But have you ever thought about it?  , the Japanese bullets will recognize you because of your different origins? Just because your origins can¡¯t hurt you?¡±

    "Let me tell you a true story. One of our soldiers was born as a laborer. But the squad leader who saved his life on the battlefield was a soldier of the Puppet Manchukuo Army who joined the army after being captured. But this soldier of the Puppet Manchu Army  He was detained at the Fengman Hydropower Station, and the soldier with a background of labor was even hit by the butt of his gun at the Fengman Hydropower Station.¡±

    "When they arrived in the army, they disliked each other just like you do now. Although they didn't fight openly, they didn't fight against each other in private. The soldier who was a soldier of the puppet Manchukuo army had not been in the army for a long time because of his excellent military quality.  He became the squad leader, and the soldier who had hit the butt of his gun at the Jaap's construction site happened to be assigned to his squad."

    "Isn't the gap between these two people bigger than you are now? But this squad leader who came from the Puppet Manchukuo Army was shot in the chest by a Japanese machine gun in order to save his comrades during the attack on the outside of the Qunce Mountain Defense Battle.  It's dead. And that man, who was a laborer, ran more than 20 miles to the ambulance station while carrying the squad leader who he considered his enemy not long ago. "

    "It cannot be said that there is no grudge between them, but on the battlefield, you are all comrades-in-arms, comrades who can sacrifice their lives for each other. Liu Heiwa, if your comrade-in-arms next to you is injured on the battlefield, you will not be hurt because of him.  He was a soldier of the Puppet Manchukuo country, so you refused to save him and left him alone? "

    "Similarly, if you are injured, wouldn't you need help from the comrades around you because they were soldiers of the Puppet Manchuria? Can you guarantee that the comrades around you are all laborers like you?  ? Yang Jicai, the same goes for you."

    "We come from all over the world, but now we have come together under the same banner for a common ideal, that is, we are comrades-in-arms and brothers. Why should we still be so clear-cut? You should help each other instead of ignoring or even laughing at each other.  . Yang Jicai, you soldiers from the Puppet Manchukuo army have completed basic military training, why can't you help your comrades during the training? "

    "Who can walk in a queue or shoot a gun when they are born? Is there any difference between you and them when you first came into contact with military training? Isn't this goose step also learned step by step? Aren't you also a little familiar with firearms?  We should help each other rather than ridicule each other.¡±

    "You must understand the true meaning of the two words comrade-in-arms. Although these two words are simple, they are not something that one person can afford. Maybe you will not truly understand the meaning of these two words until you go to the battlefield one day.  . I just hope it¡¯s not too late for you to understand the meaning of these two words.¡±
