I really came here to fight against Japan

Although it was dark in the woods, there were people leading the way, and the soldiers leading the way helped with flashlights.

Soon he brought them to the front of the tent.

As the curtain of the tent was lifted, the commander and leader of the advance detachment entered the tent together.

There was a table inside the tent, and two young soldiers in Kuomintang officer uniforms were sitting behind the table.

The commander took a look and saw that the young man in the middle was wearing a lieutenant general's uniform.

This young lieutenant general of the National Army should be Commander Song Wenwan from Gannan.

Sitting next to him was a female officer of the National Army, probably his intelligence advisor.

The commander came in and laughed generously, "This is Commander Song Wenwan from the Gansu Theater.

I have long heard that you are a Chinese anti-Japanese hero. Seeing you today, I realize that you are truly extraordinary. I am so sorry for your disrespect!"

After he finished speaking, he took the initiative to come over and salute Song Wenwan.

Of course, he didn't just respect Song Wenwan, he respected the anti-Japanese hero who killed 100,000 enemies with his own hands.

Unexpectedly, Commander Song on the opposite side was faster than him.

She and the female officer behind her stood up and saluted him and the detachment commander.

"Report to the commander and detachment commander, commander of the 46th Army Group in the Gansu Theater.

Song Wenwan, a member of the Chinese Communist Party, reports to the two New Fourth Army leaders.

The female officer said: "Hello, commander and detachment commander.

I am Zhu Bei, Deputy Director of the Logistics Department of Gansu Theater, and Commander Song’s wife. I am reporting to the two commanders now.”

After Zhu Bei finished speaking, she added in a playful tone: "Hello, Commander Uncle!"

Just now, when Song Wenwan saw the two people coming in, they were the two people he admired the most in his memory.

But he didn't dare ask them to salute him, so he quickly stood up and saluted them both.

This incident really caught the two leaders of the New Fourth Army by surprise.

You said that one of you is the commander-in-chief of the National Army's theater of operations and the commander-in-chief of the 46th Army Group.

I heard that you have made good progress in Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei-Shandong-Henan, and you must have at least 200,000 troops.

The Jiangnan Militia Division here is also yours, right? Your total military strength is almost over 400,000.

Now you come here with your men and tell me that you are also a member of the Communist Party? Are you trying to tease me?

And the lady named Zhu Bei whom you brought here calls me uncle. How do we determine the seniority here?

Wait, did she just say her name was Jube?

Zhu Bei, Zhu Bei, why do I remember that the girl who came back from Shanghai was also called Zhu Bei.

Now think about that fourteen-year-old girl, that eighteen-year-old heroic company commander.

Gradually, it overlapped with the female officer in front of him, who was wearing the uniform of the National Army.

He slapped his thigh excitedly and said, "Zhu Bei, you are Zhu Bei, so you are Comrade Xiao Zhu!

We haven't seen each other for six years. You've changed a lot.

If you didn't tell me your name, I wouldn't recognize you.

What is your current situation? Are you really married?

Are you really the commander-in-chief's wife now? Not a fake couple arranged by the organization for work?"

Because of Song Wenwan's identity, the commander thought that he and Zhu Bei were a fake couple, so he asked this question.

Zhu Bei's face turned red, and she said embarrassedly: "We are really married, and now we have three children.

However, our marriage was approved by the leaders of northern Shaanxi in advance.

The chief is not only the person who introduced Lao Song to the party, he is also the person who is looking for a marriage partner for both of us."

Commander: "Hahaha, you are so lucky to be able to marry a good wife like Comrade Zhu Bei."

Zhu Bei said shyly: "Uncle, you are making fun of me again."

Song Wenwan: "It's over. I haven't recognized all the uncles from northern Shaanxi.

This time, following Zhu Bei to Jiangnan, I'm afraid I will have to recognize a lot more uncles.

It seems I should take some time to have a good chat with Zhu Bei.

If she continues to call me "uncle", I don't know how low my generation will be.

"Ahem, Comrade Commander, look at me, don't you recognize me?"

Only then did the commander remember that his "nephew-in-law" was still sitting there in a daze.

He looked at Commander Song in confusion, thinking: Do we know each other? How come I don't remember.

Song Wenwan knew that he couldn't remember her. After all, she didn't reveal her full appearance back then.

Song Wenwan was prepared. He took out a black mask from his pocket and put it on his face.

The commander took a closer look at this time and finally recognized him.

"So it's you, Comrade Squadron Leader, you may not know that Commander Song is my savior.

It was he who asked someone to do it for me, which allowed my leg injury to heal in time and did not hinder the actions of other comrades.

By the way, Commander Song, where is the comrade who performed the surgery on me personally?

Did he come to Jiangsu with you? I am still thinking about how to make things better for him and thank him. "

Song Wenwan: "He is Brother Ren Jiu, the Chief of Staff of the Gansu Theater and the Chief of Staff of the 46th Group Army.

He is also the deputy commander-in-chief of the Second War Zone. I guess you won't be able to see him for a while.

He is currently helping the commander-in-chief of the Second War Zone in Shanxi in a battle of wits and courage with Shinozuka Yoshio."

"I didn't expect that Dr. Ren is both a scholar and a warrior, and a rare talent!

Ever since you rescued me, I have been trying to find out your whereabouts secretly.

At first I thought that you were patriots who were more sympathetic to the revolution.

But I never dared to imagine that this team that suddenly appeared in your team would actually be my own troops.

After the Kuomintang and the Communist Party cooperated three years ago, I also secretly asked people in northern Shaanxi if they had any news about you.

Later they said they could help track down the case, and asked us to keep it confidential and not mention it to outsiders.

As a result, the investigation lasted for more than three years, but I still haven't received any definite answer.

At that time I was wondering if they were keeping the secret for someone else, I didn't expect it was for you.

What was your situation back then? Can you tell us now?"

Song Wenwan told him how he helped the Red Army passing through Gansu to northern Shaanxi.

They also provided food, guns and men to help the Red Army restore its strength.

How did I get to the National Army Jiujiang training class and secure a place to go to Jiangxi?

How did they take advantage of the chaos in the Jiangxi Soviet Area to provide assistance to our comrades in the mountains?

How did they gather together and protect the wounded who could not follow the main force of the Red Army on the Long March?

How he met and fell in love with Zhu Bei, and finally got married and had children, and embarked on the revolutionary path together with his like-minded people.

Zhu Bei was listening next to Song Wenwan, her little face flushed with embarrassment.

It’s not because he talked about the past events of how the two of them fell in love and got married.

It’s because Song Wenwan exaggerated a lot in her narration of the past.

Finally, Song Wenwan said: "You two leaders have guessed it just now, I am now really strong in both troops and horses.

My troops in Jiangnan are already somewhat overstaffed.

Six militia divisions, one marine division, and one Sichuan Army youth division, that's about 200,000 people."
