"yes."
Gu Kuangheng saw that her face was very dirty and asked, "Wipe your face?"
Ning Sangyu slightly arched her eyebrows, "Nothing can't be wiped away with water."
"Okay." Gu Kuangheng pointed to the table, "I brought you some food. Time is tight, I have to go back."
“Have a safe journey.”
"Okay, be careful on the battlefield."
Watching Gu Kuangheng's disappearing back, Ning Sangyu sighed and calmed down.
Yue Xiangli wrung out a clean wet towel and wiped her face, "Look up."
She looked up at him, and he was wiping her eyebrows carefully.
After wiping her face, seeing how seriously she was looking, he kissed the corner of her lips and wiped her hands again.
After wiping his hands, he took her to eat and said, "Have a good sleep after eating."
"Um."
Yue Xiang Li hadn't slept for a long time. He held her and slept for several hours. After a brief period of tenderness, the two of them left and returned to their seats.
In February 1938, the Northern Third Route Army was transferred to the Northwest to continue fighting against the Japanese pirates together with the Northwest garrison.
After meeting Gu Kuangheng, Ning Sangyu met Ji Huaimin, whom she had not seen for ten years.
When I saw Ji Huaimin, he was sitting on the ground chewing on dry food. In his other hand, he was using mud to hold a crude map, and he was talking about the situation while chewing.
The other officers next to him looked the same.
Realizing someone was looking at him, Ji Huaimin followed the gaze and threw the mud in his hand, which hit another officer on the head.
He cried out in pain, "Old Ji, what are you doing? You hit me so hard that I saw stars!"
"Sangsang!" Ji Huaimin ran to Ning Sangyu and patted her on the shoulder. "I'm glad to see you at last!"
Those officers stood up, put on their hats, and tidied themselves up, and communicated with the officers brought by Vietnam to Li.
The chief of staff on Ji Huaimin's side said, "Old Ji, he always talks about his wife or his sister whenever he has time. Today, I finally got to see the real face of Captain Ning. A woman is just as good as a man!"
“Thank you.”
"Go away, if you don't have a wife, what else would you talk about other than your sister? You are allowed to talk about your wife and son, but I am not allowed to talk about my sister?" Ji Huaimin kicked him.
The officers burst into laughter.
After a brief reunion, the two sides held a three-hour meeting on cooperation in fighting the enemy.
After the others left, Ji Huaimin said, "I've been keeping an eye on Xiang Chen. They've also been on the battlefield in South China, and now he's also a battalion commander."
"Also, they had two children, a boy and a girl. The boy is six years old and the girl is four years old. They are now in the rear."
Yue nodded to Li.
In the following years, China was often filled with smoke and flames of war.
In June 1939, Yue Xiangli received another suicide letter.
This time, it was Xiang Zaihe's.
"The Marshal writes to you personally:
If you see this letter, I am no longer in this world.
We have defended the city for three months. We have seen our soldiers dying one by one, with corpses and blood all over the city. We will fight until there is no one left, but we will never give up an inch of territory.
The same land, the same belief, and the same guns facing the outside world, this is the true nature of the Chinese nation.
Looking ahead, my comrades will take up arms and fight on the battlefield their whole lives, with no way to repay our country. The only thing they can do is die, so I am determined to die.
The eldest son is nineteen and the second son is seventeen. They are already able to go into battle. I don’t believe that if they continue to fight, they cannot drive out all the foreign enemies.
There is no need to be sad for me. When you offer sacrifices to me at my tomb in the future, please tell me that the mountains are still there.
February 21, 1939, Xiang Zaihe’s last writing.
