Chapter 556: War-torn years and childhood in peaceful years(1/3)

On the Wild Great Wall, the cultural troupe picked a small wild flower for Caoer.

Cao'er came to the side of the wounded soldier, put Hua'er close to a soldier lying on a stretcher with his eyes wrapped in bandages, and said, "Uncle, you smell so good!"

The wounded soldier lying there asked: "What is your name?"

Cao'er replied: "My name is Cao'er. I am seven years old. I was left in Yang Village by my mother. All the people in the village were killed by the Japanese!"

She comforted the wounded soldier: "It's okay, uncle, your eyes will be cured when you get to the hospital tomorrow! The veteran said, my eyes will be cured when I get to the hospital!"

The wounded soldier asked: "What's wrong with your eyes?"

"I was the only one left alive in this village because of the poisonous gas from the Japanese. The soldiers took me out when they passed by!"

Cao'er took out the iron whistle and said, "Let me play a tune for you!"

Cao'er blew the whistle, but she couldn't see it. The wounded soldier raised his pistol and pointed it at his temple...

Cao'er put down her whistle and placed the shells one by one while counting them. She told the "wounded soldier": "The 'veteran' asked me to count every day. He said that if I could count 999 in one breath, my eyes would be

You can see things, do you believe it?"

The wounded soldier replied very firmly: "Believe it! You will see things!"

"Bang!" The wounded soldier pulled the trigger. He wanted to protect these children, but if he was injured, it would only bring trouble to the children. He didn't want to hurt these children, so he chose to kill himself!

The bullet casings placed on the grass fell to the floor.

Amid the gunfire, "Cao'er" desperately touched the soldier's face: "Uncle, what's wrong with you? You're talking! What's wrong with you?"

Everyone stood up and watched silently. No one answered Cao'er's words.

Only the grass and wild flowers stuck in the bullet casings seemed to be commemorating the sacrifices of the wounded soldiers!

Fortunately, amidst despair, there is still a glimmer of hope.

When the veteran went to fetch water, he met a fellow villager. He was not a fellow villager pretending to be a Japanese soldier, but a real fellow villager.

The fellow villager learned that the veteran was from the Eighth Route Army and told him to wait while he went back to the village to get two stretchers for them. Before leaving, he also handed the veteran two Wowotou.

For the veterans and others, these two Wowotou are an urgent solution because they have no food!

When the veterans came back and learned about the wounded soldiers, they could only silently take off their hats.

He saw too many deaths along the way...

The fifteen-year-old Shan Pao found an ancient earth cannon on the Great Wall!

"Are native artillery also used for fighting?"

"Yes!"

Only then did they learn from the platoon leader that a war had been fought here a long time ago!

"There used to be wars here!"

"How long?"

"It's been a long time! There was a war here a long time ago!"

"Do you think we will win?" The children were curious: "Do you think our guns will be dug out by others many years later?"

The ten-and-a-half-year-old boy was holding the only remaining book and reading there.

The children heard the veteran say that the fellow villagers invited them to the village.

They gnawed on two steamed buns and said: "It's so delicious!" while looking forward to it: "When I go to the village tomorrow, I will eat it in one go..."

Cao'er turned around and said, "What's the matter? My mother cooks delicious food. Give me whatever delicious food my mother has!"

Shanpao said: "After I go to the village tomorrow, I won't follow you anymore!"

The art troupe asked: "Where are you going?"

Shanpao said: "Go back to Yangcun. My father said that after the war, he will pick me up in Yangcun!"

The platoon leader asked the veteran: "Who is his father?"

The veteran replied: "Director of the Political Department of the Military Division."

The veteran glanced at the mountain cannon and said to the veteran: "A few days ago, he died during the breakout!"

The veteran was silent!

They started on the road again and arrived at the place where the fellow villagers said they were waiting.

The ten-and-a-half-year-old took Cao'er to catch grasshoppers, but they met a nurse. Cao'er wanted to talk to her, but the ten-and-a-half-year-old pulled Cao'er away vigilantly and said, "We are from the village in front!"

The ten-and-a-half-year-old was very alert. He told Cao'er that the nurse was carrying a gun and didn't look like an ordinary citizen!

On the way back, they were targeted by two Japanese soldiers!

The Japs followed and controlled everyone. The wounded soldiers plus the children were no match for the Japs.

The platoon leader tried to resist, but his other leg was also stabbed by a Japanese bayonet!

They became prisoners of the Japanese!

This made the audience in the theater feel excited.

If they fall into the hands of the Japanese, their fate can be imagined!

Shan Pao took the earth cannon he had found from the Great Wall before and poured the gunpowder from the previous dumb bombs into the earth cannon.

The trumpet took out a lead made of paper and inserted it into the cannon.

They took off the lens of the mountain cannon's telescope, used the lens to focus the sunlight and ignited the fuse. The Japanese urged everyone to get up, and the mountain cannon tricked the Japanese into looking at their own native cannon.

The Japanese looked down at the cannon out of curiosity, only to be hit in the face by the cannon!

The platoon leader and the veteran took the opportunity to pounce on the Japanese who had been blasted in the face by the cannon, and pushed the Japanese down the Great Wall.

The little soldiers took the opportunity to hug another Japanese soldier, but the strength of the children could not compare with that of the adults. The Japanese soldier broke away from everyone and pointed his gun at the trumpet. At the critical moment, the gunfire rang out.

It was the nurse who tremblingly pulled the trigger behind the Japanese!

On the other side, the veteran wanted to shoot the Japanese who fell under the Great Wall, but was stopped by the platoon leader!

The platoon leader looked at a Japanese soldier and said, "Don't shoot, that's a Japanese scout. There must be a large Japanese army behind him!"

But the children hated the Japs so much that they shouted to kill him one by one, rushed down, and picked up stones to throw at the Japs one by one!

Just when everyone wanted to smash the Japanese to death, the Japanese raised their hands and wanted to surrender!

Everyone stopped. Only the invisible Cao'er still picked up a stone, touched it down the city wall, and threw it towards the Japanese.

Because she also hated the Japs, and she saw with her own eyes that the Japs slaughtered all the fellow villagers in the village!

If it weren't for these devils, how could she not be able to see things, and how could she not be able to wait for her mother?

In the end, they did not kill the Japanese, but gagged the Japanese who were knocked unconscious and moved them to the Great Wall.

One child asked: "Will it suffocate to death?"

Another child replied: "You deserve it!"

Cao'er asked Shan Pao in confusion: "Wouldn't the Japanese just raise their hands and kill him?"

But everyone didn’t know how to answer. They just thought that it should be like this, right?

Only then did everyone suddenly realize that they were not real warriors after all, they were just children!

The nurse told the platoon leader that she was from Peiping and was looking for troops from the Eighth Route Army!

"We are the Eighth Route Army." "Veteran" said, carrying "Cao'er" on his back.

The nurse's eyes widened. She really couldn't connect these children, a wounded soldier and the famous Eighth Route Army.

But the nurse still followed them all the way westward along the Great Wall!

They were back on the road.

The art troupe asked innocently: "Will a wolf come out and eat that Japanese?"

The veteran replied: "No one asked them to come to China to feed the wolves!"

Yes, no one allowed these invaders to come to China, but they came anyway!

The road scene in the theater only made me feel a little hot on my face and a little weak in my heart.

His "City of Life and Death", no matter how much he talks about it, can't tell it in a way that the world can accept.

But he forgot that no one asked them to come, they were the ones who rushed in with guns and cannons.

The only victims of this war are the soldiers and civilians of China! They are just a group of inhumane invaders!

The children asked the nurse many innocent questions along the way: "Why is it colder at night than during the day?"

"There is the moon at night and the sun during the day!"

"Is there a rabbit on the moon?"

"That was all made up by ancient people!"

"Then what's on the moon?"
