Section 54
That was the trace left by an ordinary Chinese soldier, Old Scott told him.
Not only old Scott, but also many of his comrades have scars and wounds left by Chinese soldiers with their bodies.
That was left in a battle with huge power disparity.
A small highland was guarded by more than a hundred Chinese soldiers, and its weapons and equipment were not advanced. However, the team where Old Scott was located could not be defeated.
Cannons and planes tilted tons of bombs onto this small mountain, and even the soil layer was lifted up for more than a meter.
Under such fierce artillery fire, there should be no living people, right?
Just as Old Scott and his comrades were jogging happily and preparing to take them over, a machine gun swept them down.
Old Scott clearly remembered that his commander, the veteran of World War II, had experienced the fearful look of Sergeant Will.
Hell! There is actually someone living there...
So another round of bombing began.
Charge, bomb.
Charge again, bomb again.
The repetition rhythm lasted for two days.
Finally, in the tentative attack after a bombing, no bullets on the hill flew down with death greetings.
The Chinese have no bullets, which is a very good signal.
Soldiers on the battlefield without bullets mean surrender. This is a matter of course to Old Scott and his comrades.
(This book was first published at Qidian)
But just the moment they hummed a relaxed little song and stepped up the mountain.
Old Scott found himself wrong.
Oh my God! Is this still a human?
The yellow-green military uniform had already rotted into rags in continuous bombing, revealing pieces of skin burned by napalm bullets. The hair and eyebrows had long been roasted by fire and shrunk into small black spots, covered with a thick layer of loess. The weapons in their hands were gone at all, and various guns were dismantled into scattered parts. There were only 8 people on the entire position, and 8 people with various scars all over the body. The battles in recent days had completely consumed all their physical strength. The wounds and fatigue had taken away the last bit of their strength to stand up. Only from their bright eyes can we see that they were still a group of people with vitality.
"I bet that if these guys live in the United States, they will definitely be household heroes. The young men will take them as examples, and the girls will be proud of them. Even the generals with nostrils must salute them when they see them." This is how my father commented on them.
Just when Old Scott was stunned, these soldiers who seemed to be no different from dead people stood up with power that ordinary people could not imagine and rushed towards the group of enemies who rushed to their positions.
"They don't have a bullet anymore, they are fighting with us entirely with their last little strength. In that battle, John was twisted off his neck, Jones was pierced through his face by a stinger, Tom smashed his poor head by an AK stock without a board machine. Even the Sergeant Will was broken off by a thin Chinese soldier who was short and short. I am more lucky that a black and thin Chinese man bit my ear tightly. His hands had already strangled my neck, making me breathless. If my squad leader Sergeant Hannorson pulled out his pistol and pierced his head in time, my dear son, we would probably have met in heaven."
Whenever President Scott thinks of this simple description of his father, he will always be shocked and sweat.
He has heard many rumors about the combat effectiveness of Chinese soldiers. Every general who fought with them praised their tenacity.
Their equipment is not strong, even very poor, and it is extremely poor.
Their logistical capabilities are not strong and often starves their soldiers to death on the battlefield.
They have no advanced aircraft, no long-range artillery, no tanks, no fleets.
It is hard to imagine how much combat power the United States of America's army would have without these things.
But they still won one war after another.
There are many conclusions and statements made by various celebrities and great men in history about the mysterious China, including good and bad. But one thing is the same.
China is a dragon, a sleeping dragon.
You can sneak a little treasure it guards while it is asleep.
You can also punch it a few times and kick it while it is asleep.
You can even lift off a few precious dragon scales with a knife and cut off a few delicious dragon meat.
However, all this must be done while it is asleep.
Once it wakes up...
Old Scott lost his ears while fighting this dragon. For this reason, he received a Purple Heart Medal.
Old Scott also left a motto for the family based on his own experience: "Don't provoke Chinese."
Do you want to start a war with this terrifying dragon?
Can you win by yourself?
Scott was really unsure.
But Scott is a politician.
What politicians are best at is not getting the greatest benefits through war.
Moreover, although the cards in your hand are bad, as long as you seize the opportunity to play, you still have a chance to win.
We must have a good talk with the Chinese.
This is the conclusion Scott came to after careful consideration.
A few days later, US Secretary of State Crower began a four-day visit to China.
The U.S. Secretary of State is the supreme leader of the U.S. State Department and is in charge of foreign affairs. The Secretary of State is a member of the U.S. President's cabinet, but his status is higher than that of ordinary cabinet ministers. His position is equivalent to that of the Chinese Premier of the State Department, and the weight of speaking in the cabinet is very important.
Of course, for China, the visit of Secretary of State Crower is also very important.
The advent of "Hanlong" batteries has greatly reduced our energy expenditures. However, we do not want to break the inherent energy landscape in the world today.
Various existing vehicles in China need to be remodeled, civil energy pipelines need to be rebuilt, new power plants need to be built, and various non-renewable high-performance resources need to be stored. Moreover, to meet the growing domestic market demand, battery production must also be increased.
Therefore, when the domestic energy market is in a state of alternation between old and new, it is unrealistic to spend time to explore the outside world.
To fight against foreign countries, we must first settle the country.
Crower's visit gave us a good opportunity.
If China wants to be strong, it must get help from others. Although we have too many things beyond others, we lack too much.
Steel, energy, food, capital... All countries need for development, China is short of what China needs. Because our population is so large, it is terrible.
There are 1.3 billion people in China, of which 1.1 billion are farmers.
The word farmer refers to workers engaged in agricultural production. Of course, this is the explanation in the Chinese dictionary.
China's purpose of founding a country since ancient times is to be based on agriculture. Farmers are the people with the most occupations in Chinese society, and the people with the lowest income level and the worst living standards in Chinese society.
According to China's per capita arable land area, if you only work in farming, a farmer's average annual income is only 2,000 yuan. In terms of US dollars, it is only less than 300 yuan.
An American farmer's annual income can reach $40,000, which is still under the same production conditions.
The contrast between the two is too big.
After 1978 to the mid-1990s, China's agriculture experienced a process of development and stagnation. The reason cannot be said to be that farmers have no fundamental land rights, nor can they say that farmers cannot enter modern commodity civilization. It is the result of extensive agricultural operations. It cannot establish an intensive model of input-output like industry, nor can it establish an effective business philosophy like business. It depends on the weather for the rest of the year of disasters. It is pitiful to wait for relief, and it is worried about low food prices in the year of harvest and hopes for subsidies by the authorities. This is the current situation of Chinese farmers.
China is one of the very few countries in the world that tax farmers. It has been counted that since the New China, the government has imposed more than 30 trillion yuan on farmers. What does this mean? China's current GDP is only a little over 10 trillion yuan, and China's total value of all state-owned assets is not 30 trillion yuan. Today, when humans have entered the information society, the most vulnerable primary industry has made such a great contribution to the New China.
Annual income of RMB 2,000 requires spending the basic expenses of the family, and buying enough seeds and pesticides for the next year, meeting the daily needs of the family, and also paying huge taxes to support the Republic.
This is the Chinese farmers.
There are many reasons for all this, the most important thing is the serious exploitation and suppression of modern China by other countries.
To change this, we need time and allies.
War can only destroy, and development requires peace.
So, we are very welcome to Crower's visit.
He must leave the best impression of China during his visit and make him the Chinese government propagandist in the US Congress.
Of course, this requires a lot of preparatory work.
