Dreaming back to 1949, the great powers were there to deceive us

Hu Zhenhua had just finished talking with Carter when he suddenly received news: A reporter from Central News Agency was visiting!

There is no doubt that he came for Lao Hu and Carter.

The presence of the two big bosses at the front line was a huge boost to morale.

Before Hu Zhenhua could speak, Carter shouted coldly,

“Let them go!”

Old Hu rolled his eyes and said with a smile,

"Zhu Xingquan, go get their cameras and video recorders. Remember, be kind and pay double for the equipment!"

"Yes!"

"I, Hu Zhenhua, personally guarded the bunker. This was such an unforgettable experience that I must record it. After I retire, I can enjoy it and inspire future generations to understand the hardships our ancestors went through in starting their own business!"

Carter was speechless about Lao Hu's narcissism, but he was too lazy to stop him!

Maybe, I can show off myself too!

He was vaguely looking forward to it!

The reporter was actually secretly informed by Lao Hu. He has done many small tricks like this.

While having lunch, Hu Zhenhua secretly found Jiang Zhen and asked,

"Are you all ready? Don't let me down!"

"Don't worry, everything is ready. We'll start in the evening!"

"Carter has seen you, hide well!"

Jiang Zhen pointed at his clothes, put some dust on his face, and said with a smile,

"I'm mixed in with the team. It would be a disaster if Carter could recognize me. Besides, he wouldn't dare to wander around the camp openly!"

Hu Zhenhua chatted with him for a few more words before returning to the command center.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, the front line reported that an enemy scout unit had been discovered. This meant that after destroying the 51st Army, the Red Army began to show its fangs towards the 12th Army without any rest.

The scouts were also discovered by the various regiments of the 203rd Division.

Compared with the Temporary 1st Regiment, the other regiments were much more nervous. Ever since Yu Guangrong ordered the digging of tunnels, under the hint of the "idiots", the other regiments were secretly extending towards the Temporary 1st Regiment. Once the situation was unfavorable, they were ready to evacuate by plane!

This is the ethos of the defenders. It is very difficult for them to hold on, but they are all better than the other at finding a way out for themselves.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Xie Zhiyu withdrew all the visible and covert sentries outside.

Inside the command center, the radio kept ticking.

The regimental staff summarized various information and marked it on the sand table and map.

Inside the front-line bunker, Hu Zhenhua was talking to the camera non-stop.

"Good afternoon, friends in front of the video camera. It is 1949:5 p.m. on May 20, . I am Hu Zhenhua, Chairman of TA Company. Standing next to me is Mr. Carter, the U.S. Consul in Shanghai!"

Seeing that Carter was unwilling to show his face, Lao Hu pulled him over, put his arm around his shoulders, and teased him,

"Mr. Carter is a little shy! My friend, come and say hello to everyone!"

Carter looked at the video recorder and waved his hands awkwardly!

After all, he has not experienced the era of live broadcasting, and he is talking to the air, so he really cannot be as flexible as Hu Zhenhua!

Hu Zhenhua's big face appeared in front of the video camera again, and he continued to spray foam stars.

"Now, let me introduce to you the composition of the personnel in our bunker!"

"I'm the machine gunner. Next to me are the assistant gunner, Grasshopper, and the ammunition feeder, Walnut. Grasshopper is the grasshopper in the field, his full name is Zhao Bu! Walnut is the walnut from the walnut tree, his full name is Li Changhe!"

Two honest young men, grinning and waving at the camera!

The camera turned and Hu Zhenhua continued,

"The second machine gun crew consists of James, the main gunner, Yuan Gui, the secondary gunner, Snail, and Qian Chuanzi!"

"The third group of machine gunners is..."

The bunker is divided into two floors, with a total of 6 sets of machine guns, and two mortars on the top floor!

After introducing the situation inside the bunker, Hu Zhenhua climbed to the top floor and continued his introduction.

"We are now at the forefront of the Demon City! Right now, this largest city in the Far East is being ravaged by war. The situation is extremely unfavorable to us. Yesterday, the 51st Army, which was responsible for defending our flank, was completely wiped out. The 1st Temporary Regiment is already at the forefront of the battle line and may engage the enemy in a firefight in the next moment!"

"Fortunately, the Red Army didn't use artillery during the attack, and even rarely used explosives. We don't know the specific reason, perhaps to show goodwill to the West, or to avoid civilian casualties. In short, this is very beneficial for our persistence!"

"If we're talking about chivalry, we shouldn't use artillery. We're the defenders, with a solid fortress and complete fortifications. Using artillery would be a bit of a bully! But war is war. We must win and fight for the freedom of the world. Although I deeply admire the Red Legion, I will show no mercy!"

"Honestly, I'm pessimistic about defending the Demon City. I daresay, within ten days, the Demon City will fall! Perhaps you find it hard to understand, but we have fortifications and bunkers, and as for weaponry, we have everything from light and heavy machine guns to mortars, grenade launchers, howitzers, flamethrowers, tanks, and armored vehicles. The attacking Red Army, on the other hand, is much more shabby, armed only with rifles and grenades. How could they possibly defeat us? Yet, the truth is, we're being beaten back at every turn. Why?"

"The answer is corruption! Many soldiers in the garrison don't even have enough to eat. How can you expect them to fight?"

Hu Zhenhua lowered his voice and whispered,

"I seriously suspect that the corrupt elements within the Party-State are all underground members of the Communist Party. They are the ones who have undermined the free world and ruined the promising situation. To find out who they are, just look at those living a life of luxury in the United States and Europe! Okay, let's not continue this topic. I, Hu Zhenhua, am just a small businessman. If I say too much, I will face retaliation!"

Hu Zhenhua was about to continue spraying foam stars when the squad leader's order suddenly came from the first floor.

"Enemy soldiers spotted, take up position!"

Hu Zhenhua hurried downstairs and entered his machine gun position!

Looking out from the shooting port, about a kilometer away, several three-person vanguard groups appeared. They moved agilely and advanced in turns!

The three-three system is an important principle in the military.

The scouts did not get too close, but instead maintained a distance of 500 to 1000 meters.

They were conducting reconnaissance.

After the camera was aimed at the distance to record something, it turned to Lao Hu.

Carter squatted next to Hu Zhenhua, nervously holding the Garand rifle and looking out through the firing hole.

Hu Zhenhua decided to scare him.

"Carter, don't stick your head over there, the enemy's gun is aiming there! Be careful of getting shot in the head!"

Carter quickly shrank back!

After this little episode, Hu Zhenhua was no longer so nervous and started to spray foam stars again.

"Please don't laugh at Carter's nervousness. The moment he picked up the rifle, Mr. Carter was a hero! When war comes, I'm no longer chairman, Carter is no longer consul, James is no longer military attaché, and Grasshopper and Walnut are no longer farmers. We all have a common identity: soldiers! The years are peaceful because there are people who carry the burden forward! Friends, while you are leisurely drinking afternoon tea or playing ball with friends, thousands of miles away, there is a group of people who are resolutely fighting to defend the free world!"

"Others may not have a choice, but Carter, James, and I definitely do! Yet we still came here resolutely. Why? If no one is willing to bear arms, who will protect the free world?"

Hu Zhenhua put his arm around Carter's shoulders, bumped his helmet against his, and said with a smile,

"Carter, please say a few words. This video is important material for future generations to study this period of history!"

Carter had only one thought in his mind: If it weren't for you, the damn guy, dragging me here, no one would be willing to guard the bunker!

He said unhappily,

"There are enemy soldiers hundreds of meters away, can you please focus?"

Hu Zhenhua knew that this guy was angry, but he was not embarrassed and said with a smile,

"Brother, we must learn to find joy in adversity. If you keep on being on edge, how can you bear the pain for long?"

Old Hu was half lying on the sandbag beside the wall, and said with a relaxed look,

"I'll sing a song for everyone to ease the tense atmosphere!"

"The wind is howling. The horses are neighing. The Yellow River is roaring. The Yellow River is roaring. The hills west of the river are ten thousand feet high..."

The majestic singing echoed in the bunker.

After the song was finished, Carter was no longer so nervous and smiled.

"If you go bankrupt one day, you should be able to make a good living by singing on the streets!"

"Bah! Can you please give me some hope?"

"I'm complimenting you on your singing!"

"I don't need your praise!"

Hu Zhenhua turned to the videographer and shouted,

"Don't just record me, go somewhere else and record the soldiers' mental state!"

"Yes!"

As soon as the camera left, Hu Zhenhua immediately turned hostile.

"Carter, don't be ungrateful! I sent you to the front lines to gain experience for your own good! When the video is released, you will gain enormous fame! Not only do you not appreciate it, you even curse me!"

"Am I wrong? If you continue to be so willful, you will be on the verge of bankruptcy!"

"fart!"

Hu Zhenhua lit a cigarette and said lazily,

"Carter, I don't mean to disrespect you by saying the following: in terms of vision, there's still a slight gap between you and me. If I can see 100 meters, you can only see 1 meter. That's why many of my decisions are difficult for you to understand!"

James turned his head.

"Is the gap that big? How far can I see?"

"You're about the same as Carter, you can see about 10 meters!"

Carter: ￥%...
