Chapter 1013 It Doesn't Matter If I Can't Answer
Some unfriendly words can be heard by others, but others cannot.
Based on his understanding of these people, he's bound to say something earth-shattering. It's best to keep those words from the public, and even the reporters shouldn't know.
Regiment Commander Li frowned, not understanding Zhou Weiguo's meaning.
Zhou Weiguo sighed. "They're all young masters. They're serving the country on the front lines, which is something the people can see. But the people are the most emotional. They might not understand what you actually did, but they'll definitely remember what despicable things you did. The Second Brigade's matter can't be handled internally behind closed doors. They can find a reason to protect the reputation of the whole family's young masters. But if it gets out, it will really tarnish the reputation of all those who are truly serving the country."
"Understood, I'll take care of it right away." Commander Li immediately made a phone call, and the three battalions quickly took control of the airport. Meanwhile, under Xu Hu's command, the special operations battalion began to seize the high ground and set up the anti-aircraft machine guns they had brought.
In short, anyone who dares to cause trouble today will be beaten to death.
Not everyone had arrived yet, as there were other squadrons still in the air. In the afternoon, after everyone had arrived, Zhou Weiguo instructed Xu Hu to take the leaders of the Third Squadron and the Second Battalion to the lawn. Today, he would deal with these people in front of them. Then, the Special Service Battalion would immediately return to the Fifth War Zone.
The key is speed, so that the families of these rich kids won't even have a chance to pull strings to get help.
Zhou Weiguo was too lazy to bother with fancy decorations like tables and benches. He put on a cloak and, accompanied by Asaka Xiuling, Zhao Shoutian, two directors from the Air Force, and Zhang Feng, the tower dispatch director, and Regiment Commander Li, arrived at the venue.
The men from the Third Squadron had already been tied up. Xu Hu gave them the utmost dignity, not forcing them directly to the ground; otherwise, they would be kneeling on the ground right now.
People had already climbed onto the surrounding fighter jets, and some were even sitting on the wings of the planes. These people were all wearing large felt hats.
The air force and navy wore large felt hats, but the army did not. Instead, they wore cloth hats with steel helmets as a precaution against the Berlin mountain battles. However, this wasn't always the case; some Sichuan troops also wore large felt hats. But these hats were easily spotted, and anyone who showed their face would be instantly killed by the Japanese.
"Come on, tell me your reasons for storming the military court." Zhou Weiguo took off his cloak and handed it to Asaka Shurei.
Seeing that no one spoke, Zhou Weiguo pointed directly at Chen Yu, the captain of the second brigade; "I don't believe you know nothing about what they did. Tell me your reasons, why didn't you stop them?"
Chen Yu looked at Zhou Weiguo without any hesitation and said, "They are heroes, it was just a misunderstanding after drinking, and this matter has already been resolved privately, I..."
"Heroes." Zhou Weiguo laughed a few times before his gaze fell on the bound Third Company. "Is this your reason for daring to act arrogantly in the military law department, your reason for crossing your legs in front of your superiors?"
One of them said, “Sir, Chen Yu did make a mistake, but he shot down four Japanese fighter planes. Isn’t that enough to excuse his mistake? Besides, that girl has already forgiven him.”
Hehehe...
Zhou Weiguo looked at the person who spoke, took a deep breath, and turned his head; "Special Agent Battalion, assemble."
Except for those who couldn't leave, the members of the special operations battalion quickly came to Zhou Weiguo's side.
Zhou Weiguo glanced at them and said, "Take off your shirts."
The special operations battalion quickly removed the soldiers' uniforms, revealing their upper bodies.
Once their clothes were off, most people had wounds here and there, and some even had long scars.
Zhou Weiguo pulled someone over.
"Li Ermao, a native of Hunan, joined the army in early 1938. He was illiterate. During the Battle of Xuzhou, he was stabbed three times while fighting the Japanese army. The field hospital spent three days saving him. During the counterattack in the Ninth War Zone, he and four brothers were fighting for a female middle school student. The Japanese army commander cut off his intestines, which fell out. After stuffing them back in, he and the other four men escorted her to safety."
He then pulled at another person; "Xu Yun, a native of Guangxi, led a platoon to defend the position in the Battle of Tonggu. He was hit by machine gun fire but refused to retreat even in the face of death."
After introducing one person, Zhou Weiguo introduced a few others, then turned to look at that person: "If shooting down four Japanese fighter planes makes someone a hero, then what about the others?"
Zhou Weiguo approached the man and said, “Don’t project your thoughts onto the Japanese air force. You may be the pride of heaven, the air force composed of young masters, but to the Japanese, they are just ordinary people. They are not afraid of heights and can read a few words without any problems.”
“Heroes.” Zhou Weiguo chuckled a few times. “You don’t deserve that title. The real heroes are those who died in battle and whose remains were never found. They are your colleagues, such as Shen Chongwen and the other captains of the Fourth Battalion, who served the country without complaint or regret. They are not people like you who should be complacent because of a little bit of merit.”
After a string of curses, Zhou Weiguo said, "You still have the nerve to call yourselves heroes? Don't you dare embarrass the military here."
Zhang Feng, feeling utterly ashamed after what Zhou Weiguo said, took several steps back.
Yes. What is he thinking? After the incident, he felt it wasn't a big deal, and he had already compensated the girl and sought her forgiveness.
"You might say that you've already obtained the girl's forgiveness, but has any of you investigated that the girl jumped into the Jialing River the next day? You ruined her life, so how do you have the right to go to the military court to support the murderer?"
The question made Chen Yu's lips tremble. He... he didn't know. He really didn't know. At the time, the girl was smiling and so on. He had reasoned with her and said many things, thinking she had forgiven him.
“Soldiers don’t protect the people, but use their military achievements to bully them. What kind of soldiers are you? What kind of educated people are you?” Zhou Weiguo sneered. “So what if you’re educated? That girl deserves to be humiliated like this by you.”
At this point, Zhou Weiguo looked at the group of people in the Third Squadron: "Answer me, who gave you the right to be so high and mighty? Who allowed you to protect the murderer and go to the military court? And who told you to rush over and ask them to forgive you? What right do you have to ask them to forgive you? You could have resolved it privately, but you had to go over there openly and blatantly, tearing away their last shred of decency. Who exactly told you to do this?"
There was silence; no one answered the question.
Zhou Weiguo put his hands behind his back; "Well, maybe you don't know how to answer, that's okay. Just remember one thing I said."
