War of Resistance

Chapter 491 The American Church
Of course, as Zhang Tianhai is a dignified group leader, he naturally doesn't have to do all these errands by himself.

As a result, Liu Houming, who was the number one dog leg and idler in Zhang Tuanzhang's eyes, suffered.

Liu Houming was directly suspended by Zhang Tianhai from the position of company commander of the secret service company, and asked him to temporarily focus on the task of his adjutant, and resume his post as company commander of the special service company after the marriage was over.

A car roared from far to near, and it drove directly to the American Church in Xuzhou. It was Zhang Tianhai's special off-road vehicle for the regiment headquarters.

Yes, at this time the off-road vehicles of the regiment headquarters had been requisitioned by him again.

The American church was established in the west of the city, which is a bit like the scene in Teng County. Because the American church was established here, it can be said that the wounded barracks and field hospitals of the national army were also established near here.

If it is set up near here, the Japanese army will have some scruples, so in terms of bombing, they will not bomb without scruples, and this place will not be the primary target of being bombed.

Although the United States has not participated in the war, its international influence is still very large. As one of the great powers, if Japan offends it or causes a series of diplomatic protests, it does not necessarily mean that it must send troops to join the war, but These Americans, they can sell weapons to China in private, or provide a certain amount of material and military support, which is enough for these little Japanese to drink a pot on the front line.

Why did China and Japan not declare war even though they fought until 1940? It is because there are treaties from the international community restricting this.

That treaty restricts, as long as it is both the belligerent countries, the international community will not trade military supplies with them.

Therefore, from an international point of view, as long as China and Japan have not officially declared war, they can still trade these military resources and weapons.

Of course, this is just what it looked like at the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War. Later, in the middle and late stages of the Anti-Japanese War, because the world war had broken out in an all-round way, these powers in the international community fought together, so they became two camps. It was a war between the Axis and the Allies.

The great powers became one, and they were also divided into two camps, so they didn't care about complying with these so-called rules and regulations.

Of course, the world war has not yet fully broken out, so both China and Japan have considerable scruples in these aspects.

After all, no one wants to establish a strong enemy for the other party. This is true for China, and so is Japan.

Don't forget that in the world rankings at the time, Japan was only a second-rate power, and there was still a considerable gap with world-class powers such as Germany, the Soviet Union, the United States, and the United Kingdom.

Well, the Soviet Union at that time was still barely considered first-class in terms of strength.

Zhang Tianhai parked the car on the side of the road, and asked Liu Houming to wait here, and then he took Zheng Man straight in to find the priest of this church.

Enter the house to call people, enter the temple to worship the gods.After Zhang Tianhai walked into the American church, he asked directly in English, "Hello, is there anyone here?"

Soon a priest with white hair and wearing a teaching uniform walked out of the church.

Father John had just finished reading the bible, and just wanted to chat with the nuns about something indecent, but he didn't expect that someone would come here to ask questions.

Hearing that the other party asked in English, Father John knew that the other party knew how to speak English, so he replied directly in his native language: "I am the priest here, and my name is John. Excuse me. Commander from China, what are you doing here?"

Looking at this silver-haired and decent-looking priest, Zhang Tianhai's vigilance eased slightly: at least he looks like a good man, right?It's not like some people don't look like good people, so it's hard not to be on guard.

"I'm sorry, Father. I'm here to disturb your lunch break at noon. To be honest, I took the liberty of coming here this time because I wanted to use your church to hold a meeting for me and my wife. A holy wedding." Zhang Tianhai said in his very fluent and pure English.

"That's great! If someone comes to us to get married, it proves that it is also a kind of respect for God. There are not many people who believe in God in your China. We call them priests, but they are actually missionaries. I also want to In this land of yours, the light of God illuminates your land full of suffering." Father John said with a serious face, at least he looked very serious, but if he is serious, probably only those nuns know up.

In fact, Zhang Tianhai didn't believe in God in his heart, but it was mainly because he couldn't help it. After all, this was his first wedding in two lifetimes. The wedding must be full of ritual and formality.

But now is the time of war, there is no condition at all, and there is no way to realize a Chinese-style wedding. If it is possible, and there is this time and opportunity, he really wants to bring Zheng Man back to his home in this life, to be more precise It is the home of Zhang Yulin.

I don't know if it was due to the influence of Zhang Yulin's memory before, he has gradually integrated into this era, and he has begun to understand this era, even into his old Zhang family in this life.

People have to pay attention to their origins and where they came from, otherwise, how could someone say——if parents are still there, life still has its origins; if parents are gone, life has only a return journey?
If the origin of life is really not that important, why do those adopted sons and daughters who have been abandoned for so many years have to meet their parents and ask them why they abandoned themselves? What's it like?Where did they come from?

Perhaps it was also because of the influence of the previous Zhang Yulin's memory that Zhang Tianhai also suddenly found that his handwriting seemed to become more and more beautiful, and the more he wrote, the more beautiful he was. not enough!
Although he thought so in his heart, Zhang Tianhai would never be so stupid as to say it in front of others. In fact, he would not believe in God and Jesus.

Therefore, Zhang Tianhai said with a smile on his face: "Of course, Father, after all, God and Jesus are very great. We also want to witness our love and our future crystallization in front of Jesus and God."

"Oh, that's very pleasant. If you want to hold a wedding, then do it here. We will definitely help you make a beautiful wedding. Please believe us." Father John smiled said.

As the saying goes, don’t hit a smiling person with your hand. Seeing that Father John is so talkative, Zhang Tianhai said with a smile on his face: "Oh, thank you very much, Father and everyone in the church. Actually, I have another very presumptuous request, as you know We are at war here, and I'm an army officer who just got off the front line. I want to ask, do you still have wedding dresses here? It's a time of war and we can't find a good tailor to sew us wedding dresses Wedding dress."
