Chapter 123 A Promise and a Thousand Gold (for Xu Feng 5/15)
So what! Since at the beginning of this mission, Hu Biao and the others faced a group of newbies, and they all had a complete routine for dealing with them.
Then after the task is completed, there will naturally be the same appropriate arrangements.
Anyway, it’s just a sentence. After sending away those new netizens who are probably not going to accept the summons next time, they will talk about things in the team.
Of course, we won't let these netizens who fought to the death and even died once come here in vain.
Most of the property, including large and small yellow croakers, gold and silver coins, and jewelry, will be arranged so that they can collect as many W's as they wish.
By the way, there are also some helmets, belts, water bottles, etc. that can be used as souvenirs.
As for weapons, ammunition and other items, netizens who are destined not to continue participating in missions in the future should not bother taking them back.
Based on Hu Biao's experience, these gadgets make people wary when they are brought back, and are actually a big trouble.
Only after these people are sent away can they begin to divide the spoils.
That's right! In addition to the property, they will also be allocated various weapons and equipment, the most important of which are of course those attractive treasure chests.
After settling the above matters, everyone finally has a meeting to discuss it.
We were discussing things like future missions, the future construction of the team, what kind of system space would be a bit weird, what would be a good name for the team, and so on.
After all, after returning from this mission, the situation was a bit special.
The system suddenly gave out a lot of explanations, which contained too much information. Hu Biao really needed to discuss it carefully.
But before carrying out the above routine, Hu Biao said to the system:
"The system will show the subsequent development of the mission world and its impact on the modern plane; it will be a matter of time anyway, so let's play it first."
The reason for this is that Hu Biao is waiting for the new netizens to be stimulated, so that he can retain five people, namely Zhuye, Qingshan, Fat Paper, Sinner, and Black Chinese Medicine Doctor, so that they can continue to participate in the mission next time.
Facing Hu Biao's shouts, the two sides of the space-time channel that were originally calm suddenly started to move.
Images one after another began to appear.
Under such a gorgeous scene, the rookies who joined this time were a little dumbfounded on the spot; while the veterans were calm and unfazed.
But as the images continue to change, these old birds have become serious...
******
In those constantly changing images, the specific content is probably as follows:
First, Hu Biao and the others finally launched a total of 98 Congreve rockets, killing a total of 1,328 sailors of the Third Fleet, among whom the highest-ranking one was a naval commander.
Those antique Congreve rockets were able to achieve such a brilliant result.
The explosion of a shell on the deck of the heavy cruiser Myoko can be said to have played a crucial role.
The violent explosion at that time not only almost wiped out the front deck of the Myoko, but also caused a lot of damage to the surrounding light cruisers and auxiliary ships by splashing various hulls and gun barrels.
To be honest! Seeing those Japanese warships in tatters and smoking on the river, Hu Biao and all other new and old netizens felt a sense of accomplishment in their hearts.
Second, these are some things that make people feel quite heartwarming after reading them.
Hu Biao and the others risked their lives to achieve a brilliant result. However, in the news released by the superior department the next day, the operating personnel were replaced by other people.
There were some teams that Hu Biao didn’t know at all and had never heard of.
These people became heroes, enjoying the flowers and applause that should have been theirs, and the subsequent promotions and promotions.
At the same time, many media outlets were specifically told not to discuss anything about the 'Suzhou Province Replenishment Camp'.
At the same time, in some official records, the relevant records have also been erased.
Therefore, under such a brand new and exciting news, the popularity of Hu Biao and others quickly dropped.
Then, in this protracted battle, more heroic deeds emerged one by one.
Except for a very small number of people, no one remembers the bloody battlefield in Luodian; in the most brutal salient position, a group of cannon fodder called the Su Province Replenishment Battalion once stood firm.
Eventually, everything about them disappeared into the long river of history.
If there were only the above, to be honest, although Hu Biao and the others felt a little disappointed, they were far from powerless.
What made them powerless was that after that one was damaged, it could be said that the whole country was jubilant about the heavy cruiser Myoko.
On the same day, the Japanese took her to the Yokosuka shipyard. After three months of emergency repairs, such a terrifying warship for the Republic of China at that time left the factory with a brand new look.
During this period, the huge gap in industrial capabilities between the two countries was revealed, which is so huge that it makes people despair.
At noon that day, the Japanese, who had suffered heavy losses in the morning, dispatched all air troops to cover the ground troops and launched an attack on Luodian.
After holding on until about 2:20 that day, Huang Wei and the remnants of the 67th Division had to withdraw from Luo Dianzhu's position.
Then the focus of the battle here in Luodian became a repeated battle for peripheral positions; it was no different from the original result of giving up the position at noon on the 29th.
In this way, it seemed that Hu Biao's action had no actual effect.
Second, Peng Ji, the messenger boy, withdrew from the salient position with a group of wounded soldiers. The wounded were sent to the field hospital in the rear. He and his two comrades fell back to the 403rd Regiment.
But after experiencing some things, the third battalion commander no longer had any good impressions of the people around him.
Later, when the entire army was defeated in the final stage of the Battle of Songhu, the three of them got separated from the 67th Division.
From that moment on, Penji and two other soldiers began a long process: delivering the property to the relevant persons based on the addresses on the list.
If it were replaced by modern transportation, this kind of thing could be done in just a month.
But under the war-torn conditions at that time, Peng Ji and the others had to endure unimaginable hardships; what's more, because of the war, many people had to leave home and flee, often requiring inquiries along the way to find people, which was as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack.
Even so, Penji still did not give up the idea of looking for those people.
It took a total of 8 years, and he traveled through 9 provinces including Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hunan, Guizhou, Henan, and Hubei. After constant inquiries, Peng Ji finally fulfilled the vow he made in the past.
During this period, a partner encountered bandits during the process and died while covering their retreat.
Another partner, because his thoughts gradually changed during the difficult process, wanted to divide the remaining property with Peng Ji but was rejected, and became murderous.
After a fight between the two in the wild, Penji killed his last partner and became lame in one leg from then on.
Alone, dragging a lame leg, Peng Ji continued to run; this was one of the reasons why it took him so many years to complete such a thing.
The second reason is that Peng Ji even gnawed the bark of the tree during the most difficult time, and did not touch the valuable belongings in the package behind him.
Finally, one night on August 14, 1945, Peng Ji carefully threw his last belongings into the window of a thatched house in the countryside of Baihe County, Ankang District, Shaanxi Province...
Inside, he repeatedly confirmed that the widow with three children was his last target.
The next morning, I suddenly picked up a bag containing small yellow croakers, Yuan Datou, gold and silver jewelry, and even Widow Liu, whose legal currency had long been devalued. It was such a surprise.
The eldest son, who was the only one who had attended private school for two years, burst into tears on the spot after reading one of the notes.
On the one hand, this family, which is about to be broken up, can be saved.
On the other hand, and the most important point, there is finally news about her man whom she has not heard from for eight years; even if it is confirmed that he died in battle, it is better than being accused of being a deserter.
During the time of picking up the goods, after Widow Liu calmed down, she took this life-saving money and went to the town to buy medicine for her sick son. Along the way, she encountered something a little special.
That was when I was passing by the Guandi Temple outside the town. A group of idle men and village women were gathered around to watch the fun.
It is said that a lame beggar who spent the night here died of illness last night. The strange thing is that the dead beggar still had a bright smile on his face.
Widow Liu, who was just in a hurry to buy medicine, had no time to worry about all this.
After turning her head for a moment, she couldn't see the smiling face surrounded by the crowd, and then hurriedly walked into the town.
When she bought a few packages of Chinese medicine and walked out of the pharmacy.
I found that the doll from the school in the town seemed to be crazy and ran wildly on the dirt road in the town, shouting at the same time:
"The Japs have surrendered! The biggest emperor in the little Japs' family announced his surrender on the radio~"
After hearing the news, Widow Liu, who already had a lot of gray hair at the age of less than thirty, instantly felt as if she was completely stupid.
With a soft sound of "Bata~", the paper bag she was holding fell to the ground, and she burst into tears.
