Changsha, inside the city.

"Have you heard? The Japanese army seems to be gathering on the front line outside Changsha. Do you think they will launch an attack on us?"

"It's hard to say. The defense of the entire Changsha is now in full swing, and the citizens in the city are also very active in donating money and materials to support the troops and fight against Japan. So I think this time

There will still be battles, and I'm afraid it will be like the Battle of Wuhan, where we have to fight those Japanese army!"

"If a war really breaks out, I'm worried that Changsha won't be able to hold on! With so many Chinese troops fighting in Wuhan, they still can't repel the Japanese army. It seems that the troops in Changsha now are not as strong as they were during the Wuhan Battle.

many!"

"Do you think we should leave here right away? I always feel very unsafe. I'm worried that this place will fall to the enemy troops like Wuhan! So maybe if we can leave here earlier, maybe

It will be much safer!”

"But after we leave here, where can we go? Now there are Japanese invading troops everywhere, attacking cities and territories. Most of the country has fallen into the hands of these damn devils. Where can we go?

?And I’m a local resident. I’ve lived here since I was a child. If you ask me to escape, I don’t know where I can go!”

"Let's go to the Chongqing side! It should be safer there. Didn't all our committee members go to the Chongqing side in the rear? So I'll see where to go!"

"You are too naive. If you go somewhere, there will be no one we know well. Who will take care of you? Going there might be worse than staying here!"

"That's right! I'm not familiar with this place, so I think we should stay here. Maybe it's not as bad as you think! Maybe our national army can hold on this time! You haven't seen us.

Commander Xue, the commander-in-chief, is still very good at arranging troops?" "See! I am also very optimistic about Commander Xue! After all, he has a record of annihilating an army of over 10,000 Japanese soldiers.

!”

"Well! That's how I see it, anyway, I have already decided, whether it's life or death, I will stay here!"

"But aren't you worried about your families?"

.......

.......

When the Japanese army was gathering, the citizens in Changsha City, as well as many officers and soldiers of the army, were all discussing in private.

Some people are afraid, some are more open-minded, some are not afraid of death and want to stay and kill the Japanese, and some are ready to leave. In short, all aspects of life are revealed.

But for such a war that is about to break out at any time, many families with girls in Changsha City are still anxious and are planning to marry their daughters far away to avoid this upcoming war.

The catastrophe of the Changsha Battle.

Of course, this also includes my own family,

Ding family mansion,

Ding Zhenxiong is a well-known big businessman in Changsha City, and he also has an elder brother who is a regiment leader in the army. He is under the command of Luo Zhuoying, commander-in-chief of the 19th Group Army.

Of course, it was not the unit under the command of Wang Yaowu of the 74th Army, but the unit under Zhang Xingren of the new 12th Division under the jurisdiction of Yang Hongguang of the newly formed 3rd Army. In short, it was a unit without much power.

As for Ding Zhenxiong, his family has other businesses besides grain business and tailor shop, so his income and life are still very good.

It is also because of this that their family has become one of the big merchants in the city.

But today, Ding Zhenxiong didn't look happy at all.

The reason is very simple. He already knows that the Japanese army is gathering at the border and will attack the Changsha side of the city at any time. This means that Changsha will fall to the Japanese army at any time and at any time.

Once that happens, all the businesses, undertakings, and properties he has worked so hard to run will come to nothing, and will all be destroyed by the Japanese invasion.

Moreover, it may even put the lives of yourself and your family in crisis.

So at this moment, he was in the living room with a lot of thoughts, constantly walking back and forth.

"Dad! I don't want to get married! Why do you have to send me away!"

"I'm still young! I don't want to get married!"

"And she's marrying someone I don't even know!"

"And I still have to marry a Jinsui Army officer named Liu Yang. I don't want to go to his place! His place is so far away! And his side is not very safe, and it is also under the invasion of the Japanese army!"

But when Ding Zhenxiong fell into irritable thinking, his daughter Ding Xiaoxin, who had been standing in the living room, was in a very bad mood and objected.

"You have to tell your grandfather and your mother about this matter. This is the marriage they arranged for you, not me! My daughter!"

"Did you find the wrong person?"

However, Ding Zhenxiong was depressed and responded with a wry smile to his precious daughter's objection.

"But without your nod of agreement, father, mother and grandfather would have no way to decide this matter! So if you oppose them, then I don't have to marry that Liu Yang!"

"I don't even know what he looks like! And I heard that the 359th Regiment Jinsui Army he led was a useless army. It was afraid of the Japanese when it saw the enemy.

That’s why I would never marry such a cowardly officer, and I’m still afraid of Japanese soldiers!”

"Even if I can't marry the person I really like, then I will marry an officer who is not afraid of Japanese soldiers, instead of an officer who is afraid of Japanese soldiers anytime and anywhere, who can run away faster than anyone else, and may not even be able to escape."

He will become a traitor and an officer of the puppet army!"

"So I will never marry this Liu Yang even if I die. If you want to marry him, just marry him yourself! And he is still in such a far away place. I will never marry him, and I don't know.

How can I get there? The roads to his side are all blocked by the Japanese, so there is no way I can get there!"

Ding Xiaoxin was very dissatisfied with Ding Zhenxiong's wry smile and continued to object.

"...."

Ding Zhenxiong.

For a moment, he was speechless, because his daughter was right, it was too far away, and it would be difficult to get there because the areas occupied by Japanese troops were everywhere.

"Okay! Let me take a look! I will go to your mother and grandfather in the evening to discuss your matter with them! Now I have to think about what we should do next!"

"What I'm most worried about now is that if Changsha falls to the enemy's troops like Wuhan, then all our family business will be destroyed, our home will be gone, and even all of us will be gone.

There is no guarantee for your wealth and life!”

However, after a long time, Ding Zhenxiong's mood became increasingly heavy and he responded with annoyance.

"Then why don't we leave here and go to Chongqing! Father!"

"And before leaving, we can also give some donations to the soldiers here!"

"I can even stay here and provide some food and material support to the soldiers here!"

Seeing his father's expression of worry about the upcoming battle in Changsha, Ding Xiaoxin also tried his best to give some advice.

"Let me think about it! But if you really want to leave here, I will definitely not let you stay here. You must know that those devils are bastards who do all kinds of evil, especially to you women, they are even more cruel.

"Look, I can't leave you in dire straits, you are my precious daughter!"

"So you have to go to the rear area in Chongqing, but I will stay here to provide material and food support to the national troops who are resisting the Japanese army's attack!"

"Index, go and have a good rest now! I heard that your school is going to be suspended. Is this the case?"

However, Ding Zhenxiong shook his head and refused to his daughter Ding Xiaoxin's proposal.

"Well! There is such a thing, but..."

In response to her father's concern, Ding Xiaoxin also responded immediately.

Then the two father and daughter continued to discuss.
