Traveling through 1937, starting from the Battle of Songhu

Chapter 2: Joining the Army, the Battle of Shanghai is Halfway Through

In today's world, the Japanese invaders are rampant, and the three northeastern provinces, Beijing, and Fengtian have fallen one after another.

Now they have set their sights on Songhu, known as the Pearl of the Far East, and then Nanjing, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and even half of China's territory.

Thinking of this, Gu Changfeng squeezed in and said, "I'll sign up."

The soldier looked up at him, smiled, and said, "Okay, sign your name and address here."

Gu Changfeng finished it with just a few strokes!

He had nowhere to go at the moment, so he simply went to the army first. He just wrote down a random address, as he couldn't possibly write the Gu family address.

He was still very interested in fighting the Japanese invaders, but he didn't know whether he could still participate in the Battle of Shanghai. After all, it was almost October.

"Hey little brother, here's your resettlement allowance, five dollars."

When the soldier saw Gu Changfeng signed his name and address, he took out some silver dollars and handed them to him, then gave him instructions.

"Gather outside the North City tomorrow morning."

Gu Changfeng nodded in agreement, took the money and left. He had to find a place to have a good meal.

"Brother, wait for me."

Gu Changfeng turned around, looked at the burly man approaching, and asked doubtfully, "Big brother, what's wrong with you?"

The burly man was cheerful and said to Gu Changfeng with a smile: "I just saw you signing too, we can do it together!"

"By the way, my name is Liu Dazhuang, and I'm twenty-nine this year."

Gu Changfeng cupped his hands and said, "Gu Changfeng, I am twenty-one this year."

In his memory, his previous incarnation was twenty-one years old, and he did not report his age in the previous life. After all, this body was indeed younger.

"Then I will call you Brother Gu, haha!" Liu Dazhuang said with a smile.

Gu Changfeng also had a good impression of this man. He had a brother like him in his previous life! The two of them often went on missions together.

If I just disappeared inexplicably, my brother would probably feel desperate!

Thinking of this, Gu Changfeng suddenly felt a little depressed.

Liu Dazhuang was carefree and didn't notice Gu Changfeng's expression. He just pulled him up and left.

As he walked, he said, "Brother Gu, I'll treat you to a drink. Starting tomorrow, it will be hard to get this wine."

Gu Changfeng smiled bitterly, put his thoughts aside, and followed Liu Dazhuang to a restaurant.

The small restaurants in the Republic of China were still very simple, but the food tasted good.

Gu Changfeng had been to worse places before, and he wasn't picky about who he was, so he just started eating and drinking.

"By the way, Brother Liu, I saw this soldier recruitment, how come it was so easy to pass?"

He was a little curious. Logically speaking, this was not an era of warlords fighting each other.

It's already the 26th year of the Republic of China, why are people still being so careless about this matter?

Liu Dazhuang grinned, drank the wine in the bowl in one breath, and said with a smile.

"It's actually very simple. Defending our country is everyone's responsibility."

"Besides, most of our troops are now stationed in Songhu, fighting the Japanese invaders fiercely."

"I heard the situation is not optimistic. We might be in reserve."

Gu Changfeng felt a little bitter. What Liu Dazhuang said was indeed right. It was not in vain that an entire division was wiped out in one day in the Battle of Shanghai.

The Battle of Shanghai is now more than halfway through, and it is the most brutal moment of the fighting.

It is not easy for an agricultural country to fight against the industrial Japanese invaders. If they don't sacrifice human lives, what else can they sacrifice?

Of course, what Liu Dazhuang said about the majority of the troops is not very realistic, but one third definitely exists.

Liu Dazhuang continued, "I heard that many soldiers suffered greatly! They fought desperately against the Japanese invaders who had airplanes and artillery, armed with the most rudimentary weapons, wearing coarse cloth clothes and straw sandals."

Gu Changfeng nodded. The Sichuan Army was the worst hit in this matter, and they suffered the most.

"Hey! Brother Liu, what did you do before? I think you've touched a gun before."

He noticed the thick calluses on Liu Dazhuang's hands and concluded that this man must be familiar with guns!

As expected, Liu Dazhuang replied, "I am a hunter. My parents have passed away. Now that the country is in danger, as a Chinese man, I must do my part."

Gu Changfeng respects his predecessors, and also respects these men who dare to stand up.

He picked up the wine bowl and said, "Brother Liu, good job. Let's fight side by side from now on. Cheers."

After saying that, he drank it all in one breath.

"Haha! Good, good job, little brother Gu." Liu Dazhuang said with a thumbs up, and then drank the wine in the bowl in one breath.

"By the way, little brother Gu, you look like a scholar, why did you choose to join the army?"

Liu Dazhuang asked with some confusion.

Gu Changfeng smiled and didn't want to say much about it. He was a military king in his previous life, so how could he not have a role in fighting against the Japanese invaders?

"Alright, Brother Liu, I have something to hide. I'll tell you later!"

Liu Dazhuang was nonchalant and didn't ask any further questions. Instead, he started to persuade them to drink. The two of them ate and drank for more than two hours.

Finally, we found a simple inn to rest.

Gu Changfeng felt helpless about this body. He felt comfortable after drinking the wine, but he vomited several times when he came back.

Damn it, in my previous life, I wouldn’t have reached this point even if I drank two kilograms.

The next morning, after waking up, Gu Changfeng looked at the gray interface in front of him with some curiosity.

Although he has been in the army for a long time, he is not completely ignorant of things like System Dad.

Now that time travel has appeared, the standard system dad will naturally come out as well.

Gu Changfeng touched the interface in front of him curiously.

Uh... totally useless.

It's like the death scene in the game, nothing moves.

However, the following prompt reminded him.

"Barrett M82 sniper rifle, exchange for points."

"AWM/P sniper rifle, exchange for 80 points."

"HK416 assault rifle exchanged for points."

Then there are all kinds of grenades, pistols, and even rockets! Things like infantry guns.

The exchange standards vary. For example, for an infantry gun, you need 500 points.

"By the way, where do points come from? What can I use to redeem them? The system doesn't tell me!"

“Is one interface enough?”

Gu Changfeng was a little confused.

Perhaps knowing Gu Changfeng's thoughts, a sentence suddenly appeared on the interface.

"The system is starting."

Gu Changfeng waited for a moment, and suddenly a voice appeared in his mind.

"Ding, the system has started up. Please name this system."

"Changfeng destroys the bandits." Gu Changfeng shamelessly named it after himself.

"Ding, the Changfeng Bandit-Slaying System has been renamed."

"Ding, the novice gift pack has been distributed. If you need to exchange for weapons, please kill the Japanese invaders as soon as possible to exchange for points."

Gu Changfeng understood. So that’s how it was. Otherwise, who would know how to get points.

As expected, there is a reason for time travel, it is just to let him come here to live a good life!

Click on the newbie gift package that was prompted.

"Ding, system prompt, the novice gift package has been placed in the space."

Gu Changfeng followed the instructions and was stunned when he saw the weapons in the space. Damn, this system is a bit stingy.

A few grenades, a brand new Zhongzheng rifle, and a box gun.

Damn, they are all common stuff, there is not a single good thing. Does this system think it is so awesome that it doesn’t even give me a good weapon?

After a moment of depression, Gu Changfeng felt relieved. At least they were given a lot of bullets, 1000 rounds each, which was enough to fight the Japanese.

Sooner or later, he would have to replace those awesome weapons. After making up his mind, he washed up and went out.

Coincidentally, Liu Dazhuang had also gotten up and was waiting for him at the door.

Seeing Gu Changfeng coming out, Liu Dazhuang said happily: "Little brother Gu needs to practice his alcohol tolerance. With just the little bit of wine he drank yesterday, he vomited several times! Haha."

Gu Changfeng shook his head helplessly. His health was indeed a little poor, but it was not his problem.

Fortunately, this body is young, otherwise I would be drunk until the afternoon and would definitely delay today's gathering!
