War of Resistance: Glory of the Beasts

Chapter 72 is a mess! (Thanks to '中年油油男yy' for the reward)
Xu Chaoyang remembers that he had watched a very interesting documentary. At that time, he had just been discharged from the army and was really bored sitting in the Military Museum. Apart from watching videos, the only thing he did was watch movies.

The documentary is called "Seven Up".

What is it about? It's about finding a group of children with different backgrounds, recording them every seven years, and seeing how much their background can change people.

Among them, the lives of those children from better-off families are not the same as what most people imagine. They do not live in the happiness of having whatever they want, but they have to lay the foundation from a young age, learn various etiquette, etc. They do not seem to be happy at all.
In this way, seven years passed one after another, and the top children entered famous schools through continuous efforts; while many of the bottom children dropped out of school, and some even had many relationships, experienced pregnancy, etc.

When one reaches the age of 28, everyone's life has reached a watershed. Some people have achieved success, some have become homeless, and some others have fallen into an unchanging vicious circle.

The children whose parents had no requirements for them since childhood answered in front of the camera that if they knew that prestigious schools would have such a great impact, they should have worked hard when they were young;
Although children from well-off families also dropped out of school, those who completed their studies and became high-level intellectuals lived in a wealthy environment and became increasingly separated from other children.

The most important thing is the frustrated child. At first, he couldn't even speak clearly to the camera, but later, he actually began to change dramatically. He became talkative, outgoing, and popular...

The reason why Xu Chaoyang thought of this movie is that, in fact, all the treatment in this world is earned through one’s own hard work.

Of course, differences in family background will definitely lead to differences in vision, but vision will never be the only factor that hinders your success. It’s just that children from lower classes with poor vision have one more reason to complain about the world.

Just like this country right now.

Due to a century of weakness and the corruption of the feudal dynasty, it is bound to go through a period of hardship. During this period, countries that have experienced vigorous development will be stronger than you. If you give up just because others are stronger than you, I'm sorry, you will never be able to see the future.

And you will never be that child who strikes back.

This is the reason why Xu Chaoyang asked Tong Meng to return to Ice City. He hopes to tell everyone that this child living at the bottom of society has a spirit of not admitting defeat, and that there are people who are willing to work hard in order not to become slaves of a conquered country.

"Company commander." Tong Meng stood beside Xu Chaoyang, took out another note from his pocket and said, "And this."

Xu Chaoyang saw an address and asked, "What is this?"

"Lao Wang said this is where we can stay."

Xu Chaoyang shook his head: "Bad luck."

Qu Yong scolded, "Why did you go into the city? When did it become your turn to act on your own?"

Xu Chaoyang stopped him and said, "I mean this surname is unlucky."

Tong Meng listened to words that he couldn't understand at all, and tried to test Xu Chaoyang's thoughts: "Then should we still go?"

Xu Chaoyang looked at Tong Meng's innocent expression and thought to himself, "I'm worried about you! If someone like you were to participate in a war on a hidden front, you would be caught in two days."

"go."

"It's better than being a savage in the mountains."

This was his answer. He also knew what Wang Xiao was thinking. Tong Meng's expression had shown it clearly. But he also knew that Wang Xiao at this time did not restrict anyone's ability at all, let alone harm them. The reason he did this was nothing more than wanting to influence these guys who were like bandits.

As for the Anti-Japanese Society, he didn't want to get involved at this stage. Of course, if the Anti-Japanese Society could negotiate with them and ask them to help fight the Japanese, Xu Chaoyang would still be willing to go, except for the kidnapping of Puyi.

"Let's eat first." He patted Tong Meng's arm twice, then walked towards the bonfire with a smile. Hua'er was squatting in front of the bonfire with several hanging Japanese steel helmets, looking at Tong Meng without avoiding anyone's gaze, and she didn't even notice Xu Chaoyang coming to her side.

"It's a mess!"

Xu Chaoyang looked at Hua'er's focused expression, bent down and whispered in his ear, which gave Hua'er a startle...

Hahahahahaha!

Immediately afterwards, everyone around burst into laughter, and Xu Chaoyang was so happy that he couldn't even straighten his back.

Hua'er's face flushed red, as if she couldn't stay there anymore. She punched Xu Chaoyang's shoulder twice, turned around and ran towards the woods behind her.

This may be their only happiness at the moment, but this happiness is so real that it makes people feel at ease.

Xu Chaoyang knew that none of these people were hiding their secrets from him, and he didn't have to worry about being betrayed. He wished that this period of painful history did not exist in the real river of time; he wished that they were like gypsies, wandering around the world with only a car, instead of encountering the smoke and flames of war any day.

“This time it seems to be really confusing!”

When a strange smell came from the corn stubble and wild vegetable porridge bubbling in the helmet, the second sister rushed over and stirred it inside the helmet with a clean bayonet.

Now they can only eat this, and this is the food they brought from Tianwang Mountain.

"Second sister, please sprinkle more salt on my portion and use the flowers to beat the salt seller to death. I have a strong taste for salt." After giving the instructions, Qu Yong also jumped onto the truck and dragged the branches with Liu Gener and Yu Minghao.

The second sister turned around and said to him: "It's appropriate for you to sprinkle more salt, but how can others eat it?"

The reason why the second sister said this was not because there were not enough helmets for each person, but because they had little food left.

This was the case even the individual rations of the Japanese soldiers who were killed were left behind.

When talking about the Japanese army's rations, Xu Chaoyang hated them so much that he wanted to kill people. The 1938-meter-tall Japanese who occupied the Northeast were like nouveau riche. In peacetime, each soldier was equipped with a pound of refined rice, half a pound of refined wheat, and half a pound of fresh meat. As for after 20, the rations were even more arrogant. They were also equipped with miso powder, salt, sugar, soy sauce, tea and sake. Even cigarettes were issued to each person at sticks per day.

But Xu Chaoyang also had ten people firing. How many days could the rations of the twenty or so Japanese soldiers who were killed last?

If Tong Meng came back a few days later, he would have to worry about what to eat. Maybe he would have to go down the mountain like a bandit and smash two big households first...
