Agents of the Republic of China

Chapter 12 Ghost's Memories

Hearing that Lin Xiaotang was going to Hunan University, the driver was taken aback, and then told him that at the end of last year, Hunan University had changed its name to National Southwest Associated University.Due to the accelerated pace of the Japanese army going south, the national government decided to move Southwest Associated University to Kunming, Yunnan. It is said that most of the teachers and students have already moved, and various facilities of the university are being moved.

Lin Xiaotang was a little dazed. He came to Changsha all the way, hoping to meet his teachers and classmates here, but he didn't expect that the university had already moved westward. If the teachers and classmates had already left, then he would not even There is no place to stay.There are also Ergou and Fangrou. I don’t know if they have arrived in Changsha. There are so many people, how can we find them?

Seeing Lin Xiaotang's embarrassment, He Chong immediately chuckled, "You, Commander Lei and Commander Xiao knew that you were a soldier, if something happened to both of them, they would definitely drag you into the prison. How about this, don't worry, go back to the garrison headquarters with me and settle down first, anyway, the Communist Party is recruiting troops on a large scale, and college students like you are very sought-after in the army. Your two friends, just Leave it to me, and I will find it for you."

Hence, Lin Xiaotang had no choice but to follow He Chong's suggestion and follow him to the headquarters of the Changsha Garrison.After He Chong reported to the officer, he was assigned to the officer's dormitory of the headquarters. Because it was getting late, Lin Xiaotang temporarily stayed in the officer's dormitory for the night.It can be seen that He Chong's status in the headquarters is quite satisfactory, the house he was assigned has two rooms inside and outside, and all kinds of supplies are also available.

It was past eight o'clock in the evening after packing up. He Chong and Lin Xiaotang were already tired after taking the train for several days and nights, so they simply ate something, occupied a room by themselves, and fell asleep.

Wrapped in a thick quilt that exudes the smell of sunshine, Lin Xiaotang couldn't fall asleep. He didn't expect to face such a situation when he came to Changsha. He had no relatives. If it wasn't for He Chong's help, he might have to stay in a hotel , but at this time Changsha was overcrowded, with refugees going south everywhere, and it was always difficult to find a place to stay.

What should he do next? What He Chong said made sense. It would be unrealistic to go to Kunming again. Not to mention the long distance, Xiao Shanling's adjutant gave him some money when he set off, but the amount was not much. Lin Xiaotang really didn't want to ask He Chong borrowed, he didn't want to owe this favor.

Perhaps joining the army is really the only choice at present, Lin Xiaotang has no other ideas, and the hatred on his body is too much, and only joining the army can he fulfill his desire for revenge.Lin Xiaotang secretly made up his mind to ask He Chong to find out about the situation in Changsha early tomorrow morning, to see which army in Changsha is currently recruiting, of course the Central Army is the best, at least the salary will be guaranteed.

After making up his mind, Lin Xiaotang's mood also relaxed, and he slowly fell asleep without knowing it.

A picture suddenly appeared in my mind, very clear, but also very strange.

Where is this, Yijiangmen?Somewhat similar, but not quite the same, and the scenery in Lin Xiaotang's memory is somewhat different, but it should be here.Why did I come back again?

There was a drizzle in the sky, and a small passenger ship slowly left the pier and sailed towards the center of the river.On the deck at the stern, a row of soldiers with spears stood neatly.The two people in front of them, one was an officer in a straight military uniform, holding a box covered by a red flag, while the other, a middle-aged man in a black suit, unfolded the letter paper in his hand, choked up and read.

"Martyr Lin Youzhong, born in 30, unfortunately died on December [-], [-], when he was performing a secret foreign mission. He was only [-] years old. According to the martyr's last wish, the ashes of the martyr are scattered in his hometown, Nanjing Yangtze River. Hope The souls of the martyrs rest in peace!"

The officer at the side took two steps forward, gently opened the box, and the man in the suit took it slowly, leaving two lines of hot tears in his tiger eyes.He trembled and said: "Youzhong, you are an orphan. Today, I, a comrade in arms, will see you off for the last time!" After finishing speaking, he put his white-gloved hands into the urn, and held up a handful of white urns. The ashes were scattered in the wind towards the river.Immediately, he hissed loudly: "Youzhong, have a good journey!"

"Everyone is here, raise your guns!" Following an order, the soldiers solemnly raised their steel guns, pointing their muzzles at the sky, "Send off the martyrs, fire!"

"Pa, pa, pa", with three bursts of crisp gunshots, the birds on the river scattered in panic.

Caressed by the bitter river wind, the white ashes did not fall into the river, but flew proudly along the trajectory of the wind, facing the continuous winter rain. A heroic soul was like a black dragon going up against the wind, heading straight for Xiaohan!

And the heroic soul that has gone through 60 years of vicissitudes flew down from the clouds and went straight into the body of Lin Xiaotang who was lying on the ruins of Taihe Bridge in another time and space.

The vast number of characters and endless energy entered Lin Xiaotang's body, and slowly merged into his memory and body.Lin Xiaotang glanced at these strange things, which seemed to be some fighting skills, firearm assembly and use, coded communication, and blasting instructions, etc.There are also a complete collection of picking up girls, and cheating secrets.God, what the hell is this!

In the haze, the ghost's voice flashed in Lin Xiaotang's mind again, joking with anticipation, echoing in his soul, "Boy, I have given everything to you, knowledge, physique and skills are completely complete. It is installed in your brain, infiltrated into your blood and muscles. In this life, you will never forget it! Don’t be so old-fashioned, don’t ask me who I am, God told me to give it all to you , must have his idea. Maybe he really can't see the little devil doing evil. Unfortunately, I can't give you all the historical knowledge I know, because this is going to hell!"

"I also know that you may not be able to change history, but I hope that you can help our people to suffer less. By the way, I have found out about you. Your name is Lin Xiaotang. I haven't taken a word yet. I will give you one , Youzhong, which means to protect China. How about it, does it sound good? I warn you, just use this word, if you change it, you will be struck by lightning! Well, I should go, remember every word I said. Finally, I wish you success!" Then, there was a burst of triumphant laughter.

Lin Xiaotang was disturbed by the piercing laughter, he yelled, and opened his eyes suddenly.

It was still silent outside the window, He Chong in the back room was still snoring unscrupulously, Lin Xiaotang's back was already soaked in sweat, he looked outside the window, it was still dark, but the sentry post in the distance was still lit with a faint light.

"Lin Youzhong, is this his name? He is from the future world? He gave me the strange things in my mind and the steel and iron bones I suddenly developed. He wants me to change this world, change this period History? What is the real history like?"

Lin Xiaotang's mind was filled with these questions that had haunted him for half a month, his mood gradually calmed down, and he slowly fell asleep again.

The night was still deep, and suddenly there was a barely audible chuckle in the starry sky, "Boy, in fact, you are already changing history!"

Waking up early in the morning, Lin Xiaotang only felt refreshed all over his body, with exuberant energy filling every pore.After breakfast, after He Chong went to work, Lin Xiaotang was so bored that he simply put on a coat and strolled out of the compound of the officer's dormitory.

The streets of Changsha are still lively, but the difference is that there are more soldiers in various uniforms on the streets.Not long after walking, Lin Xiaotang's arms were stuffed with colorful leaflets by students who appeared from time to time. Lin Xiaotang glanced at them, and found that they were nothing more than anti-Japanese propaganda.

Lin Xiaotang bought a few newspapers, picked a roadside tea house, sat down at a place facing the street, had a cup of clear tea, and read leisurely. It's been a long time since I had such a pleasant and relaxing time.

Suddenly, Lin Xiaotang's eyes were attracted by an article in a newspaper. The title of the article was "The Nature and Tasks of the Youth Movement at the Present Stage", and the author signed it "Zhou Enlai".

"If we want to survive, the only way is to resist the war, and we must persevere in the war to the end. This era is about fighting!"

"Under the overall changes in the national environment, the position occupied by young people in this era is the most difficult and the most important."

"Our generation of young people should be lucky to live in such an era of great turmoil. In this era, we must learn to be enriched and exercise to be strong!"

The provocative words and penetrating analysis made Lin Xiaotang read it with fascination and could not stop.

After a long time, Lin Xiaotang closed the newspaper and let out a long breath.On the simple high platform on the opposite street, several people from the drama industry were impromptu performing the famous little drama "Sacrifice for the Country". There were hundreds of people watching. After the performance, the audience was still immersed in the plot of the drama. They all shed hot tears. I don't know who took the lead in shouting "Down with Japanese imperialism!" The surrounding crowd responded loudly.Such scenes can be seen everywhere on the streets of Changsha.

Lin Xiaotang was so excited, he put down a banknote, picked up the newspaper, asked the staff at the teahouse where the army was recruiting soldiers, and squeezed into the crowd.

At present, the battle of Xuzhou is underway, the Japanese army has attracted the elite Itagaki division of the Japanese army to the front line of Taierzhuang, the encirclement has been formed, and only the final general attack is waiting.Changsha, as a barrier to the southwest rear, has assembled more than [-] soldiers, so all the troops are currently recruiting on a large scale, but almost all of them are in the central army sequence. The Sichuan Army and the Dian Army are only resting in Changsha because of the shortage of funds. , and immediately embarked on a journey northward.

At the south gate of Changsha, there is a military force recruiting troops here. I heard from the guys at the teahouse that this military force is different from other troops. Come join the army.

When Lin Xiaotang approached, there was already a long queue in front of the recruiting point. Several military policemen were maintaining order, and the recruiting officer was registering the recruits in order.A large flag was hung behind him, with the number of the unit written:

"The 74th Division of the 57th Army of the National Revolutionary Army".
