Wei Jianjun held the communicator's metal loudspeaker and shouted at the American residential area in the night, "The Chinese army has no intention of breaking into the houses, but if the people in the houses dare to shoot at us, we will not let them go. We will burn down your houses and kill everyone in them. If you don't want to die, stay at home and don't come out. "
Not many people knew foreign languages these days. As the company commander, Wei Jianjun had to do it himself. Just after he shouted half a street, he heard someone shouting the same thing in Guangxi style English. Judging from the voice, it should be Company Commander Shi Qian who came to fight with Wei Jianjun and annihilate the fleeing American troops.
Wei Jianjun was a little surprised that Company Commander Shi Qian also knew English. Earlier on, the company commander insisted on annihilating all the Americans. At that time, Wei Jianjun felt that the company commander was just talking nonsense and was quite unhappy with him. But now, his unhappiness had long since flown away.
The two looked at each side of the street and shouted together. The houses on both sides of the street were quiet, as if there were no residents in them. Both Shi Qian and Wei Jianjun knew that it was just a facade. The Americans in the houses must be holding their breath and would probably be sleepless all night. But this was not a problem for the two company commanders to consider. If they had the extra energy to think about the Americans, they might as well think about whether their subordinates could rest at night.
Walking back to the rest area and drinking some water, Wei Jianjun saw more troops rushing over along the arranged communication line. Soon, a communicator came to tell Wei Jianjun that he needed to report to the regiment headquarters.
On the way, Wei Jianjun met Shi Qian, who was also ordered to report to the regiment headquarters. Shi Qian was carrying a water bottle and drinking as he walked. When he saw Wei Jianjun, he said in a hoarse voice, "Company Commander Wei, your troops didn't run away after putting out all the fires. Next time you encounter something like this, can you explain first? Even if you want me to clean up your mess, you can't not explain clearly. "
"Are your people okay?" Wei Jianjun replied.
"If something happened, it would be a big explosion in the gunpowder depot. I'm afraid I would have died, not to mention my company's people." Shi Qian shouted half a street. His voice was hoarse, so it was hard to tell his emotions.
"I'll pay more attention next time." Wei Jianjun could only reply in this way. "I have to thank you for coming so quickly, Company Commander Shi. If you hadn't outflanked the enemy, I'm afraid they would have escaped. "
"Haha, a company like you dares to drive me away? I didn't know you were so daring at first. I didn't notice it at first. "Shi Qian's voice was still the same, but at least his tone didn't contain the slightest hint of mockery.
"I won't let the US regular army off. They were the bones, and the people were the flesh. Crush the bones, and what's left is just a pile of meat. "Wei Jianjun didn't feel the slightest bit happy because of such praise, and simply responded.
At the mention of the battle just now, Wei Jianjun also felt very uneasy. There were many combat training subjects in the Liberation Army. As a company commander, he had naturally participated in these combat training. But when it came to a real battle, that training was far from enough. Of course, the Liberation Army could not devote all of its resources to the pursuit. There had to be outposts, flanks, and movement routes. Even so, if it weren't for the scolding of the American people, Wei Jianjun really wouldn't have noticed that the first half of the army had fallen into the enemy's flanks.
But at this time, Wei Jianjun wasn't afraid. Instead, he decided to simply pretend to step into the enemy's trap and then defeat the enemy. As soon as the battle started, both sides found that something was wrong. The red full moon gradually turned orange after it rose. Under the hazy moonlight, the US troops who tried to attack the Chinese army found that the Chinese people didn't panic under the attack. Instead, they immediately launched a counterattack. The American army that wanted to turn around and attack the Chinese army suffered some losses in the face of the battle formation that the Chinese army had long prepared. When the troops searched the battlefield, they found that at least 30 US federal soldiers had been killed in that part of the battle.
Wei Jianjun didn't know what the Americans were thinking at that time because he didn't interrogate the captives. However, being attacked from both sides by the enemy at night, Wei Jianjun only felt great pressure at that time. Compared with the pressure during the battle, because he didn't know when the enemy on the side would open fire, the various emotions that Wei Jianjun felt when he personally led the team to carry out the enemy's luring tactics were the things that left the deepest impression on him. Fear, anticipation, rejection, all of those negative emotions came wave after wave. Wei Jianjun even felt that it wouldn't matter if he died. When the enemy finally opened fire, Wei Jianjun even stood straight and completely ignored the enemy's bullets. He calmly commanded the troops to quickly lie down and carry out a counterattack against the enemy.
After the battle began, Wei Jianjun thought that he would have to fight with the enemy for a while before the communications officer passed the news to the battalion commander and brought back reinforcements. He didn't expect Shi Qian's troops to attack the enemy's ambush from behind less than ten minutes after the battle began. The enemy's flanks didn't expect the Chinese army to have such a backup plan and were quickly defeated. Shi Qian and Wei Jianjun immediately carried out a flanking attack on the US federal army who had returned to attack. They chased after the US troops who began to flee when they saw what happened and attacked fiercely, almost wiping them out.
After the battle, Wei Jianjun couldn't fully understand the battle. On the contrary, Company Commander Shi Qian was calm and decisive. First, he called the military doctor up to treat the wounded and transported them to the rear. This clean and efficient method made Wei Jianjun gradually regain his rationality and recover from his bewilderment.
Thinking about this, Wei Jianjun said sincerely, "If it wasn't for Company Commander Shi Qian's help, I definitely wouldn't have been able to solve these problems."
Hearing Wei Jianjun say this, Shi Qian was stunned. He said in a hoarse voice, "You don't have to be so polite. If you hadn't dared to run in the American residential area with your troops, I wouldn't have dared to outflank you like that. Same here. "
After saying some words, his throat became even drier. Shi Qian picked up the water bottle and drank two more mouthfuls to moisten his throat.
Wei Jianjun didn't want Shi Qian to waste his breath, so he stayed silent. Shi Qian, on the other hand, was interested. He asked, "Company Commander Wei, who in your family is a foreigner?"
If someone asked Wei Jianjun about this, he wouldn't be angry, but he wouldn't be happy either. The Chinese had a natural distrust of other races. Those who were not of the same race were bound to have different intentions. However, at this time, he didn't want to recall the battle. Instead, introducing his background was the easiest thing to do. He slowly said, "My mother is Spanish …"
After the Luzon War ended, under the Military Governor Vaize's concern for the people in the mountains of Guangxi, in 1867, a large number of Spanish women were kidnapped to be wives of Chinese bachelors. Wei Jianjun's mother was the wife of a high-ranking official in the former Luzon Governor's Office. After being sent to the mountains, she gave birth to three children in four years. As the eldest son, Wei Jianjun was born on Army Day, so his father gave him the name "Wei Jianjun."
Before Wei Jianjun's third sister was born, the Military Governor Vaize ordered the implementation of urbanization in Guangxi. At the time, First Lieutenant Wei Jianjun, who wasn't even three years old, followed the population of the mountain village and was "escorted" by a government task force to Wuzhou to live.
Wei Jianjun's father rarely talked about what happened at that time, but from a few words, he could roughly understand that the Tu family village seemed to have done something to resist the government. After arriving in Wuzhou, Wei Jianjun's father worked at the docks. Wei Jianjun's mother could be considered cultured. Under his mother's education, First Lieutenant graduated from high school with excellent grades. He applied to military school and a teacher's college at the same time. Because he had passed the Spanish and French level exams in high school, the military school with priority in recruitment recruited Wei Jianjun to study at the military school.
After saying all this, Wei Jianjun couldn't help but ask, "Company Commander Shi, who did you learn foreign languages from?"
After hearing this question, Shi Qian couldn't help but smile bitterly to himself. He had thought that as the youngest son of the Taiping Rebellion's Wing King Shi Dakai, he was someone with a story. He didn't expect that his own story might not be more interesting than the company commander next to him, who looked somewhat foreign. Of course, the part of his life that was similar to Wei Jianjun's was that their fates were closely related to war.
After the young king of the Taiping Rebellion surrendered to Vézé, Shi Dakai led a group of people to Xining to continue raising the banner of the Taiping Rebellion. This force, which couldn't even be considered a small imperial court, was killed by Vézé within a few years. Vézé had been the Prince Of Qi during the Taiping Rebellion. He took good care of his old brothers and didn't strip them of their private property. Shi Dakai, who had to live in Nanjing, was not poor.
Because his family finally had some sense of propriety and didn't want to cause trouble. Before Shi Qian went to junior high school, he didn't know that his father, Shi Dakai, had been the Wing King. There were history courses in junior high school. After reading the text, he learned that his father, who was a cadre in the Literature and History Museum, was actually such a big shot.
Of course, there were too many big shots in Nanjing. Shi Qian went to primary school, junior high school, and high school like ordinary Nanjing children. In the education of "I am a Chinese, I love my motherland," he was full of admiration for the Liberation Army since he was a child. After graduating from high school, Shi Qian applied for the military school and was admitted.
His brothers and sisters were not satisfied with the fact that Shi Qian had turned to the "enemy." They inevitably laughed at him in private. But Shi Qian didn't have a good evaluation of his brothers and sisters. Didn't they still try to get to the top? The biggest difference between Shi Qian and them was that his brothers and sisters would scold the Military Governor Of Vaize in private. Shi Qian's attitude was very consistent. As a soldier of the Military Governor Of Vaize, he should fight well and make contributions.
Fortunately, his father, Shi Dakai, supported Shi Qian. "Since you've eaten his food, you should work hard for him." Shi Dakai's expectations of Shi Qian were high. The father and son discussed military issues. In the beginning, Shi Qian admired his father very much. But as Shi Qian grew up quickly in the military school, he had to admit that his father, Shi Dakai, might have been good at fighting in his time, but in this new era, he was really behind the times.
Later, he served in North America and participated in the war.
