Chapter 956 Cemetery (Part 1)(2/2)
Rejecting the help of others, Tang Dao took the armed shovel and filled the slightly wider tomb alone, and then faced the thousands of soldiers and civilians standing in front of him.
"Today is the day when 893 martyrs of my Four-Ship Group go home. I suggest that I watch three minutes of silence for 839 martyrs of my Four-Ship Group."
After saying that, Tang Dao took off his military cap first, put it on his chest, and lowered his head solemnly.
All the officers and soldiers learned from Tang Dao's movements, took off their military caps and put them on their chests, and lowered their heads solemnly. The others present took off their hats on their heads, and those without hats bowed their heads.
Three minutes later!
"After the silence," Tang Dao raised his head and said loudly: "Since the formation of the army, our four-hand regiment has gone from Sihang Warehouse to Songjiang, Guangde, Wuhu, Zhengzhou, and then to Jindong. We have been fighting on a large scale with the Japanese invaders six times, with countless small-scale contacts and wars, independently annihilated more than 10,000 Japanese invaders, and cooperated with friendly forces to annihilate more than 10,000 Japanese invaders.
I can replace my four-way regiment and proudly tell the whole of China that we have fought continuously throughout the journey and created unprecedented brilliant victories!

The martyrs' cemetery behind me is the best proof. Without their sacrifice, there would be no glorious victory for our army.
However, sacrifice means that a mother loses her son, a wife loses her husband, and a child loses her father.
Last night, I watched my family members crying loudly while holding the coffins of the martyrs. Among them are old people, women, and children. My heart as the leader of the group hurts more than anyone else.
Because they are also my brothers, one who trains on the training ground, one eats in the pot, and one who fights in the trenches.
As the highest commander of the Four-Road Group, my heart is as sad as their relatives.
But, because of grief, will we stay away from the battlefield? No, I will tell you loudly, and tell each of you, never.
Because, my brothers and I are not just sons, husbands, and fathers, we are also Chinese.
The Japanese invaders have raised their butcher swords and pointed them at the entire Chinese clan. We will not wait for the massacre. We will raise our swords and guns more resolutely, tell them with blood that we will never surrender.
If we are afraid of the grief of our family and dare not step onto the battlefield, when the Japanese invaders' butcher knife pointed at us and our family, who will resist you and me?
No, when everyone chooses to retreat, then no one will protect this country and this nation.
We can only move forward, face the Japanese invaders' blade, even if we sacrifice, even if we cannot say sorry to our wife, even if we can never kiss the child's face again."
"Go forward, move forward, move forward." The soldiers were infected by Tang Dao's words, raised their arms and shouted.
Standing on the flank of the military queue, Teacher He and his students also raised their arms high and shouted in tears.
At that moment, even the people shouted with the soldiers.
Regardless of whether Tang Dao intentionally sensational or not, the cemetery with tombstones of more than 800 people shows that they do not cherish their lives, but are never afraid to sacrifice their lives. Only such an army is the strongest army in China.
A huge sound echoed in the valley.
ps: It's over, I've been at home for 10 days. In addition to instant noodles, I can order a takeaway occasionally, and my mind is really buzzing! I have to worry about the online courses of my grandparents' daughter. Now I can't do math in my second year of high school. I dare believe it? I feel that I'm not in the same state this week, but I can't find it back. Let's take a look!
