Let’s not talk about the Battle of Nomenkan for now, let’s talk about Xu Rui later.
The birth of his daughter gave Xu Rui a deeper understanding of life.
Xu Rui has been a man for two generations, and this is the first time that he has his own next generation.
Early this morning, Xu Rui was awakened by a childish voice of um, um, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
Looking at him, when Xu Rui's eyes turned around, the corners of his small mouth immediately raised into a smile, revealing two shallow dimples.
Seeing his daughter biting her fingers and laughing, Xu Rui almost lost her temper.
Staring at his daughter's smile, Xu Rui suddenly felt that it was all worth it.
Why are you working so hard on the battlefield? What are the soldiers of the National Army, the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army fighting for on the battlefield? Is it not to protect your wife, children, and children from being enslaved by the invaders? Is it not for the sake of the motherland?
Will the next generation be able to breathe the air freely?
Xu Rui suddenly felt that the injuries he had suffered on the battlefield, the blood he had shed, and the hardships he had endured were all worth it! In order to give his daughter a stable environment and the dignity she deserved, she would do whatever it takes.
Drive the Japanese out of China, even if it means sacrificing your own life.
Xu Rui gently stretched out his hand, hugged the little person into his arms, and then kissed her delicate cheek gently. To Xu Rui's surprise and joy, the little person actually opened his hands.
With her delicate little hands, she gently stroked Xu Rui's newly shaved cheek, and made a few more hums in her mouth.
The two of them look like a father and daughter chatting.
Sai Hongfu saw this extremely warm scene as soon as he opened his eyes, and said with a smile: "Are you two talking about each other?"
"Yes, Guo'er just told me that mom has worked hard." Xu Rui held out a finger for his daughter to hold, then shook it gently and added, "Guo'er also said that mom is the best in the world.
Okay, the most beautiful mother, Guoer, tell mother quickly, is that what you said just now?"
The little man gently held Xu Rui's finger and really hummed.
Xu Rui's face immediately lit up with joy, and he said with a smile: "Look."
A thick smile immediately appeared on Sai Hongfu's cheeks.
For a mother who has just experienced the pain of dystocia, nothing can be more comforting than the warm scene in front of her. She is mentally and physically traumatized, watching Xu Rui teasing her baby daughter.
, looking at the smile on his baby daughter's little face, Sai Hongfu felt that his heart was filled.
Sai Hongfu said softly: "I decided on the name without consulting you. You won't be angry, right?"
"No." Xu Rui smiled and shook his head and said, "Besides, the name Hongguoer is pretty good too."
"Actually..." Sai Hongfu bit her lips lightly and said, "The reason why I gave this name is because I had a dream the night before you left. In my dream, I saw mountains. In the mountains
There is a fruit tree on the top of a mountain. There is only one fruit growing on this fruit tree. It is bright red and really beautiful."
After a pause, Sai Hongfu added: "Then, next to the fruit tree, there is a very tall gorilla."
"Nani, a gorilla?" Xu Rui had a premonition that something not so wonderful was going to happen to him.
"Really, I didn't lie to you." Sai Hongfu smiled lightly and added, "Although it is just a picture, I can clearly feel that the gorilla as majestic as the mountain is guarding the fruit tree.
, guarding the red fruit."
Speaking of this, Sai Hongfu paused, looked at Xu Rui with soft eyes, and then continued: "Xu Rui, you are the gorilla as majestic as the mountain, I am the fruit tree, our
My daughter is that fruit, I believe you will be able to protect me and our precious daughter well."
Facing Sai Hongfu's soft and watery gaze, Xu Rui didn't say much, let alone any heroic words. Instead, he just leaned over and kissed Sai Hongfu's lips gently. Just one kiss can speak a thousand words.
It was all in it. With just one kiss, Sai Hongfu could clearly feel Xu Rui's perseverance and determination.
Some men cannot be trusted no matter how much they say.
Some men, even if they say nothing, are enough to make people have unwavering confidence in them.
Xu Rui is undoubtedly the latter type of person. Sai Hongfu firmly believes that if necessary, Xu Rui is absolutely willing to trade his own life for her life and that of their precious daughter. Of course, Sai Hongfu will never let Xu Rui sacrifice his life.
Go save her by yourself, because Xu Rui is the most beloved person in her life, and she is willing to sacrifice everything for Xu Rui.
"You go and stay with Xiao Taohong." Sai Hongfu said with a smile, "Three months, this girl misses you so much."
"I already stayed with her last night." Xu Rui said with a smile, "Now I just want to stay with you and our red fruit."
Sai Hongfu glanced at Xu Rui and said, "It has been several months since you went to Shanghai. How is the situation there?"
Xu Rui smiled and said: "Aren't you from Zhongtong, and the second young master of the Chen family seems to have not given up on you, so he didn't tell you about the situation in Shanghai?"
"What are you looking for?" Sai Hongfu glared at Xu Rui.
Xu Rui laughed and said, "I'll slap you if you want to, but it's never your turn to slap me."
"Seriously." Sai Hongfu said angrily, "Otherwise, I'll really whip you."
Xu Rui chuckled, and then said seriously: "The preparations for Shanghai are almost done. It could take three to five days, or take half a month, and we will start street fighting with the Japanese."
Sai Hongfu sighed softly and said, "It seems that I can't catch up."
"What are you talking about?" Xu Rui shook his head and said, "The street fighting in Shanghai will definitely not end so soon. Even if it goes quickly, it will take at least two or three years, or even five or six years."
But Sai Hongfu didn't take Xu Rui's words seriously at all, and even said that Xu Rui was comforting her.
Then Sai Hongfu said, "Take Xiao Taohong with you. Let her accompany you during these days when I'm not here."
"It seems like I can't live without a woman." Xu Rui said angrily, "Xiao Taohong should stay at home. You don't have anyone to take care of you."
"That's right, you seem to be able to live without women." Sai Hong rolled her eyes at Xu Rui and said coquettishly, "If I don't let Xiao Taohong look at you, she might find some wild women to come back to me.
."
Xu Rui could only shut up, because there was one in Shanghai.
However, if we really talk about it, Jiangnan seems to be ahead.
But Xu Rui didn't dare or couldn't say this no matter what.
After a while, Sai Hongfu asked Xu Rui again: "Then when do you plan to return to Shanghai?"
Xu Rui said: "The excuse I made when I came back this time was to go back to Nanjing to persuade Liang Hongzhi to go to Shanghai. Liang Hongzhi is fine and will try his best to cover for me, but he can't stay at home for too long."
Sai Hongfu said: "Business matters, you should go back to Shanghai today."
Although Sai Hongfu was very reluctant and wished Xu Rui could stay with her and her daughter for a few more days, she also knew that the situation in Shanghai was on the verge of breaking out. At this time, it would not be appropriate for Xu Rui, the commander of the Songhu Military Division, to be away.
Yes, that will seriously affect the morale of the military.
Xu Rui shook his head: "There's no need to be so anxious..."
However, as soon as Xu Rui finished speaking, Xiao Taohong walked in in a hurry.
"Uncle, something happened!" Xiao Taohong said anxiously as soon as she came in.
Xu Rui also said that there was some emergency in Shanghai, but even so, he did not sit up immediately, because this would inevitably wake up his daughter who had just fallen asleep. He stood up gently, and then took Xiao Taohong to the outside.
Then he asked: "Xiao Taohong, don't worry, is there an emergency in Shanghai?"
"No, it's not Shanghai." Xiao Taohong shook her head and said, "It's Northeast."
"Northeast?" Xu Rui was suddenly shocked when he heard this, and blurted out, "Japan and the Soviet Union started a war!?"
Xiao Taohong hummed slightly, nodded and said: "The political commissar called from Shanghai and said that at four o'clock this morning, the Japanese 23rd Division, in coordination with the 1st Tank Division and the 1st Field Heavy Artillery Brigade, arrived from Manchuria
Crossing the Sino-Mongolian border, they launched a surprise attack on the Soviet troops stationed in Mongolia. By 8 a.m., the Soviet-Mongolian coalition troops stationed on the Sino-Mongolian border had been basically annihilated. At the moment, the Japanese attack group was rapidly advancing towards Chita.
"
"Good guy, we finally took action!" Xu Rui said ferociously.
The reason why Xu Rui has not launched a street fight in Shanghai until now is because he is not ready yet, and he is waiting for a suitable opportunity! Or to be precise, Xu Rui is waiting for the Battle of Nomenkan to start. Once the Battle of Nomenkan starts,
The Japanese army's attention will be completely drawn to the northeast, and its attention to Shanghai will decrease.
At this time, if Xu Rui launches a smaller-scale and smaller-scale offensive in Shanghai, the Japanese base camp will most likely not react violently, or at least will not send heavy troops to encircle and suppress it. Then Xu Rui can gradually fight through street fighting.
Awaken the veterans stranded in Shanghai and gradually expand the scale and scope of street fighting.
By the time the Japanese base camp realized something was wrong, Xu Rui had already completed the preparations for the defense of Shanghai by boiling frogs in warm water. By then, he would be ready to fight the Japanese! So before leaving, Xu Rui had warned Wang Husheng
, if there is a big event in the Northeast, notify him as soon as possible.
Xu Rui originally wanted to stay at home for a few more days to spend more time with Sai Hongfu and his baby daughter.
But now it seems that we must go back, and we must go back immediately, without delaying for a moment!
At that moment, Xu Rui said to Xiao Taohong: "Xiao Taohong, go and notify the veteran, Langya will assemble immediately!"
Xiao Taohong agreed and turned away. Xu Rui returned to the inner room and said to Sai Hongfu with an apologetic face: "Xiao Bai, it seems that I have to go back to Shanghai, and I have to leave soon."
