The Greatest Pain in History!
Zhang Mufeng was walking aimlessly on the barren field with Yanzi on his back.
He was wearing a pair of tattered shoes that didn't fit his feet. A rusty kitchen knife was tied to his waist with a hemp rope.
These were the last things he picked up from the village. There was nothing left in the entire village.
Zhang Mufeng turned the swallow on his back and hugged it in his arms. He reached out his dry hand to touch her forehead and felt a burning sensation.
"Yanzi, since I was young, they said that I was a jinx.”
Yanzi opened her eyes weakly, moved her pale lips, and smiled sweetly.
"Nonsense. Brother, you're not."
Zhang Mufeng said expressionlessly,
"But I jinxed grandpa, big brother, and second brother. Maybe I was the one who jinxed the village when the Japanese wiped out this time.”
Yanzi, who was only four or five years old, did not have much idea what a jinx was.
However, she only knew that for as long as she could remember, everyone in the village had said the same thing about her brother. Many people did not allow their children to play with their brother.
Yanzi wrapped her arms around Zhang Mufeng's neck and rested her head on his chin.
"You're not a jinx. You're Yanzi's brother. None of that has anything to do with you.”
"Brother, stop teasing Yanzi. Yanzi is very sleepy and wants to sleep for a while.”
Yanzi fell asleep in his arms.
Zhang Mufeng stood there for a long time without moving. Then, he found a random direction and walked down.
....
"Yanzi should be sick. Hurry up and find medicine!”
"Are you stupid? There was no medicine at that time! Many children with poor health died of illness!”
"My heart aches for these two little ones. Their parents are gone, and the village is gone. Where can they go?”
"Damn it, it was all done by the Japanese!”
This program called Memories of a Veteran had already been broadcast for half an hour.
More and more people began to immerse themselves in it and began to worry about the two children.
In the eyes of the ordinary audience, they did not know who this young man named Zhang Mufeng was, nor did they know that these were the most authentic memories from decades ago.
However, they were all attracted!
Especially on the live broadcast platform, many people were watching and commenting on the bullet screen.
......
"According to the records, during that period of time, the enemies in the Central Plains basically plundered all the food in order to prevent the people from secretly providing food for our army.”
"The crops in the fields were burned by them. The livestock in the village were taken away by the enemy. Those who couldn't be taken away were killed and thrown into the well, not to mention the people."
In the 9th Military Region, a top researcher in the field of modern war history was speaking solemnly.
"Therefore, it is very likely that Comrade Zhang Mufeng will not be able to find anything to eat!”
"And that child called Yanzi is probably dying!”
"After all, in that era, most people didn't have medicine to treat high fever.”
He Tianzhu and the other generals sitting opposite him did not say anything.
They were also curious about what their regiment commander would encounter next. Moreover, they had never heard their regiment commander mention anything about their family.
What happened to this child called Yanzi?
......
"Hey, kid, do you want to eat together?”
Another destroyed village. On the wasteland outside the village, a few skinny and sloppy men shouted at Zhang Mufeng.
Each of these men was so thin that they did not look human. They were more or less injured.
They were excitedly surrounding a broken pot that they had picked up from nowhere. Food was cooking in the pot.
When he saw Zhang Mufeng passing by with Yanzi on his back, he waved at him in a friendly manner.
"You must be starving too. There's meat in the pot. Do you want to eat some together?”
Zhang Mufeng stood rooted to the ground and looked at the men's bloodshot eyes. Then, he looked at the boiling meat in the pot.
She shook her head expressionlessly." No need. We're not hungry.”
Then, he prepared to leave with Yanzi on his back.
How can there be meat in this era?
Seeing that he was about to leave, one of them immediately chased after him.
"Sigh, don't go! It looks like you still have strength. Why don't you come with us?”
"In this world, one more person means one more person to rely on. If you come with us, you might be able to survive.”
"We can exchange something for the child on your back!”
Seeing this person chasing after him, Zhang Mufeng stood still and held the rusty kitchen knife in his hand.
He didn't say anything and just stared at the person in front of him with killing intent.
"Alright, alright, you can go!"
The few of them seemed to be frightened by his desperate look and did not dare to stop him.
Zhang Mufeng carried Yanzi on his back and slowly left. He did not put down the kitchen knife in his hand.
The swallow on his back had woken up at some point, and a weak voice came from it.
"Brother, there's meat. Why didn't you eat it just now? Aren't you hungry?”
Zhang Mufeng reached his hand behind his back and patted Yanzi's head,
"I'm hungry."
"But we can't eat that meat.”
.......
In the military compound, the researcher looked at the screen and fell into a deep silence.
"This was the greatest tragedy of that most difficult era.”
"Hungry to the point of insanity, trading for food."
"This is enough to show how much damage those enemies brought us back then!”
......
It's still the first day. Please support me!!
