"Fight bravely and don't take prisoners for your life!"

For four consecutive nights, as soon as the attack stopped, Liu Chunming went out every night to look for Zhao Peiren.

After a few nights, his understanding of no man's land has reached an unparalleled level. He saw corpses, he saw dying people, he saw the wounded on both sides. For dying people, he would shoot

Beat them to death or use morphine to make them unconscious. For the wounded, he would drag them back to the trench without any trouble, and then crawl back to continue searching. He called Zhao Peiren's name a thousand times. He was no longer cautious. He

He stood up under the moonlight. He used the light of the flare to search the land destroyed by the shells. He called his brother's name at the loudest volume.

Of course the Germans heard his voice and saw him. Liu Chunming could hear the German sentry imitating his cry - "Zhao Peiren! Zhao Peiren!"

Then they would burst into laughter and croon with a Bavarian accent. They would even beat the same rhythm with their guns as they removed the cartridges from the belts of the machine guns.

"Zhao Peiren, Zhao Peiren. Zhao Peiren!"

But no rifles were fired, and not even the machine guns seemed to be aimed at him. Out of kindness and compassion, or maybe just out of indifference, the Germans let this crazy Chinese wander around in the ruins.

"Zhao Peiren!"

The seriously injured Zhao Peiren barely regained his consciousness on the stretcher of two German soldiers. On the stretcher of the two German soldiers, Zhao Peiren, who regained his consciousness, followed them through the maze of trenches and came to a field hospital.

In the field hospital, the German doctors also looked at the Chinese military officer with surprise. This was the first time they saw a captured Chinese military officer.

"The Chinese people are definitely opponents worthy of respect!"

In the past few days, these military doctors have always heard stories about the enemy from the wounded. For example, they would use their bodies to roll over the minefields on the battlefield in order to open up the attack for the attacking troops. They would use their bodies to

When the springboard is used to allow the comrades to step on their bodies and cross the barbed wire, they will... there are too many stories, and where are their officers?

They have never seen any Chinese military officers who were captured alive, because Chinese military officers would commit suicide even if they were captured.

"Fight bravely and don't take prisoners for your life!"

The captured Chinese soldiers once explained the officers' behavior in this way. It seemed to be their honor not to take prisoners alive. Even the captured soldiers had faces full of shame, as if they were ashamed and angry that they could not die in battle.

.

Under the curious eyes of the military doctors, Zhao Peiren was examined, his wound was re-bandaged, and he was given a shot of tetanus. Then he was sent to a farm, where fourteen Chinese soldiers were already imprisoned.

"Sir!"

The fourteen captured soldiers of the expeditionary force saw that a warrant officer was being escorted in. All of them had expressions of surprise on their faces, and their surprised looks only made Zhao Peiren's heart surge.

Unspeakable shame and anger...

"Sir!"

"Sir!"

The sergeant with gauze hanging on his arm was the highest-ranking person among the fourteen soldiers.

"I order you...kill me!"

Zhao Peiren, whose hands and legs were seriously injured, used all his strength to issue the order.

"Sir..."

"Young officials must not be taken prisoner for their lives..."

When he uttered these words, Zhao Peiren felt as if his strength was about to be exhausted. He gasped for air, then closed his eyes and waited for the sergeant to take action, but he waited for a while, but did not wait for the sergeant to do it.

Take action.

"Sergeant, do it!"

"Sir,"

"This is an order!"

"Sir..."

At this moment, German soldiers walked in, and then fifteen of them were sent to a deeper position. The difference from before was that this time he was carried away on a stretcher by his own people.

When they arrived at the prisoner-of-war camp, Zhao Peiren, the only captured officer, was close to collapse. His injured left leg felt like it was on fire, and waves of severe pain constantly impacted his consciousness. The prison camp was composed of a group of dimly lit people.

It consisted of a small house, surrounded by a barbed wire fence. A brief search was performed at the door - Zhao Peiren's cigarettes were taken away, and then he was sent to a hut marked with the Red Cross logo.

A nurse took a quick look at him and determined that he would not die that night, and let him fall down on the straw mat exhausted. He closed his eyes, but could not fall asleep. Boundless depression came over him.
