In the jungle, the crocodile slowly sank into the moss-covered stream. Do good and evil coexist in this world?
On the shore, there lived such a group of people. A group of children sat around, playing unknown games with crude stones. Witt took a boat and came to this island, and he was greeted by a sparkling water surface. Dark-skinned children and adults play and fight in the water. The mothers bathed the children in the water, the round-faced children poked their heads, the fluffy curly hair stretched out in the water, the body dived quickly while completely submerged in the water, peaceful and comfortable, this is probably the lively " Heaven", Witt walked into the crowd with this idea in mind.
They are detached from the heart of the world today - war. Looking at this group of comfortable people, he thought of his dead mother. To his comrades in the same suffering, Witt seemed a little rambling. He liked to imagine his past and think about things he didn't understand. Time just passed by minute by minute.
It was getting late, and Witt and his comrades began to slowly integrate into the group. He and a mother in the tribe exchanged life and daily life. shelter from the rain; they mingle with the children and play novel games. People sang strange but unexpectedly good songs on the shore, as if they were holding some kind of ceremony. This beautiful picture came to an abrupt end-comrades-in-arms stood on the dead trees on the beach and saw a ship in the distance.
It's a U.S. transport ship. Witt and his comrades returned to the army. On the ship, he met an acquaintance, a deputy company commander who knew him well—a friend of Witt's. The deputy company commander accused him of being a deserter, and finally arranged for him to be a medical stretcher for the unit. He sat in the cabin, struck a match, and blew it out again. Across a layer of iron wire, talk to comrades in arms.
The solitary transport ship sailed on the sea, marking a white mark.
On the deck, the soldiers were carrying out their activities nervously and solemnly. The general took out several topographical strategy maps and pointed out that the island code-named "Stubborn Stone" was their goal this time. It is the area that the Japanese army has captured, and the Japanese army built an airfield on this land after the occupation, and they need to take this area. The island has a lengthy but memorable name for future generations: Guadalcanal.
Since World War II, the battle between the Allies and the Axis powers has finally reached a critical moment. The United States has faced the difficult Japanese army in the Pacific theater. After Guadalcanal, the U.S. military can effectively prevent Japan from attacking Australia, and also protect the transportation routes between the United States, Australia and New Zealand, which is the beginning of the counter-offensive of the naval campaign.
The company commander looked at the sea and made up his mind that he would go into battle with all his might. The admiral on the side praised the company commander with a smile, but his words were mostly complaints about the lower sergeants. They negotiated to let the army go all out to complete a beautiful attack and annihilation battle, but reality was already waiting to give them a slap in the back.
In the cabin, the soldiers were busy packing their luggage. The deputy company commander frowned and brushed his teeth while listening to a hairy boy beside him. This little boy who looked very childish was called Cui En. He stammered about his expectations for the future. He was very nervous without leaving his father in the three sentences. Perhaps Trien also realized that he might not be able to survive in this war-they were the vanguards, the vanguard who used their lives to block the enemy's muzzle in exchange for the combat capability of the follow-up troops. They were small but crucial, so he thought Say as many last words as you can... say it, maybe it will be fine.
At this moment of preparation for the battle, some people roared angrily, some people were lying on the bed shaking and sweating, some people looked at the long letter, and some people were asking about the combat situation of the troops sent out earlier. A soldier lying on a marching hammock slowly opened his eyes, and the person beside him started chatting with him. It turned out that he used to be an officer, but he quit his job because he couldn't bear to be separated from his wife, and he still enlisted in the army in the end. A second-class infantryman.
Bell closed his eyes again, thinking of the gentle wife who stayed at home. The horn sounded hurriedly, and everyone was in chaos. He got out of the cabin, looked at everyone on the deck, and put on a heavy helmet under the reminder of others, but he thought silently in his heart.
Around the side of the ship, groups of soldiers climbed along the ropes to several small boats. The boats carried the soldiers to the shore. Several Japanese bombers flew at low altitude. The soldiers marched hard in the tide, ran to the shore, and then Escape into the lush jungle. After entering the jungle, they carefully probed the surrounding movement. In the depths of the jungle, the indigenous inhabitants of an island approached and passed the army, as if two people in parallel time and space could see each other, but live in different worlds.
While Bell was following up with the troops, there were waves in his heart again. He recalled his loving past with his wife. The soldiers were still crawling forward, they burrowed into the grass as high as one person, and opened the road silently.
Witt finally arrived at the camp. He looked around, and there were stretchers and wounded everywhere. The military doctors could not appease the wounded, and they could not give all the wounded a new life. Howling, twisted faces, wounds covered with bandages but still bleeding red blood, some people lost their hands, some people lost their legs... They were dying, their expressions were sluggish, and the occasional single expression was unbearable. pain.
The company commander's troops arrived at the battlefield. They needed to cross three hills and then capture the hills of the Japanese defenders, using frontal raids. Night fell again, and the demoted soldiers prayed silently in the cold. The morning glow was flushed, and the battle of attack and annihilation began.
Keck asked the vanguard what to do. The soldier Shi Gao on the side was suddenly sweating profusely. After asking, Keck learned that the other party seemed to be suffering from stomach cramps. At this moment, Keck was thinking that Shi Gao might be in Fear of war - so he did not hesitate to force Shi Gao to do what he should do and charge ahead. The deputy company commander on the side stopped Keck's persecution and decided to take Shi Gao away from the battlefield. Keck was a little resentful, but did not show it.
They began to charge, and a group of people rushed up the hillside, and quickly lurked again, hiding in the grass. The little Cui En had already started to shake his body involuntarily. He spoke with trembling, guessing that the Japanese might retreat. The big-eyed soldier was chewing gum vigorously to relieve his tension. He made a gesture to instruct the two people in front to go to the enemy to investigate. The two hesitated for a while, and then moved slowly. In the end, the information they got was two gunshots.
The binoculars in the rear were slowly put down, and everyone was immersed in silence. No one said a word. The soldier with big eyes chewed a few chewing gums before leaning down.
As the sun rose, they decided to continue the charge after waiting for no results. After getting up, artillery fire filled the area and screams filled the area. The stretchermen and the wounded were in a mess, but the commander still shouted to charge, and the blue butterfly flapped its wings in the fire, brushing past the deadly bullet.
War is the grave of all soldiers.
Stao received a call from the company commander. The company commander had already been occupied by victory. He even asked the forward to capture all the hills at noon today. Keck and Stao shouted across the air, and the big-eyed soldier Bran commanded was dead.
The Japanese soldiers on the top of the mountain were also shouting with loudspeakers: "Yankee, we saw you! Roosevelt!"
The American soldier replied: "Death to Tojo Hideki!"
There was a striker hiding in the grass, he was shaking, he was nervous because he had killed a man. After a brief period of calm, the soldiers began a new round of onslaught.
Keck got up in a hurry, but accidentally pulled out the ring of the grenade. In a hurry, he could only use his body to block the bomb to protect his comrades who were very close to him. The red and white flesh fell on light cyan. In the grass, Keck's lower body was blown to a bloody mess, and the crowd gathered around. Keck gasped for breath, he felt cold all over, it was the feeling of a lot of blood loss, Witt stepped forward to appease the restless Keck, and finally Keck stopped breathing forever in silence. A soldier who had promised to write a letter for Keck to his wife far away at home collapsed after Keck's death and cried out that he didn't want to, holding a photo tightly in his hand...
Human nature is always subject to tests. During the artillery fire, another soldier was shot in front of them. The deputy company commander wanted to rush forward, but was stopped by the surrounding people. They persuaded the deputy company commander not to make unnecessary sacrifices. The deputy company commander looked not far away. The wailing comrade-in-arms replied, "At least I can inject him with morphine." At least, it can make him less painful—
The deputy company commander rushed into the strafing area. He wanted to save life - even if it was only temporarily to relieve the pain. He gave the soldier morphine. The soldier was thirsty for morphine. After getting the morphine, the soldier seemed to understand What, so the dialogue between him and the deputy company commander seemed so weak.
"Bye, kid."
"Goodbye...goodbye."
"Bye, kid."
"Goodbye, sarge. Goodbye."
We are all dust.
The attack was divided again. The company commander ordered a direct frontal attack on the phone, but Staau wanted to outflank the Japanese from the side forest. In the long silence, Staau chose to disobey the order.
Cui En was shot, and the young boy died at this moment. The sunlight projected through the mottled leaves was pale.
Life may eventually wither at the moment, but Stau does not want them to be destroyed by war, but this is just a delusion.
A new round of exploration began. Soldier Bell led six soldiers deep into the enemy's territory. They found three Japanese troops. After a burst of fire, the Japanese troops all fell. After Bell hesitated, he let the other soldiers stay behind and continued alone. probe.
During the journey, Bell thought of his wife - soft lips, she was walking into the sea and calling him softly. The exploration went well, there was a bunker on the top of the hill with five machine guns inside, and they re-strategized. After a battle, Witt and the deputy company commander became friends, admired and understood each other.
Bell lay in the grass, looking ahead with his eyes open. His heart was full of his beautiful wife... The morning came with a prayer, and the U.S. military began to move again. They lurked under the boulder and measured After the Japanese garrisoned the position, they began to charge after bombarding the Japanese garrison. The gunshots were still ringing non-stop, and the soldiers kept falling. Just when they were thinking about retreating, the Japanese army began to rush forward like crazy and fell into the haystack.
The U.S. military won the final victory. They successfully entered the Japanese camp, but what they saw was dilapidated and desolate. The Japanese army was dying. The camp was full of dead people. Their expressions were sluggish, or they were crazy or stupid. Witt took off the candy he had hidden on his body and raised it at a Japanese soldier, who just glanced at him and looked away.
The corpses of the dead were piled up like mountains, like the corpses of wild dogs lying on the side of the road, and like the large quantities of pork that the slaughterhouse could not sell, and then they were left to stink, rot and make people sick. After the rest, the soldiers embarked on the journey again. In the fog, the Japanese reinforcements slowly approached, and the camp fell into chaos again. The Japanese army, which lost its supplies, did not make a comeback, but went crazy.
Yelling, wailing, and scrawny with a strange smile.
The U.S. military played them like monkeys and tortured them - it seemed like a matter of course, but also like a deliberate revenge, it was the Japanese that brought them the fear of death, and of course they got what they deserved.
A soldier is carefully turning over the corpses of Japanese soldiers, pulling gold teeth from their mouths. [The Japanese army gained a lot of gold and silver wealth due to the invasion of most Asian countries (mainly China) in World War II, so many Japanese soldiers had gold and silver teeth inlaid, and the American soldiers were searching for gold and silver. 】
White sat by the stream, and the wonderful song of the local tribes began again, and it all seemed to be over. The company commander wanted to say that Staau was dismissed because he disobeyed the military order. After some conversation, the two left. Stahl did not reject the new assignment.
The U.S. military burned down the Japanese garrison.
Soldiers were caught up in the ecstasy of a week-long vacation, drinking for fun but now to numb their nerves. The soldier who pulled out the Japanese army's teeth suddenly recalled the Japanese soldier's murmur in the rain - let me die, kill me. Trembling, he threw away the little black bag that was supposed to symbolize wealth, and howled in the rain. The war aroused the desire in people's hearts, and stripped people's emotions ruthlessly. The feeling of insensitivity, perhaps, is the feeling of losing consciousness.
Bell received a letter from his wife after a long absence, but the letter said that he fell in love with an air force captain and decided to divorce Bell. This letter made Bell feel dazzled. He resigned for his wife, and his wife eventually left him. As far as the eye can see, it is desolate and desolate, and the scenery in front of him is not a true portrayal of his heart.
Wit came to the tribes that inhabited the island again, but they kept away from Wit. The toucan on the eaves watched silently, and Witt finally turned and left the tribe. War is a lie, and everyone is trapped in a moving coffin, waiting to die.
The new battle is still going on. When the U.S. vanguard waded through the water, gunshots were heard in the jungle. This was something outside the situation. Someone needed to investigate, and Witt volunteered. In the end, Witt, soldiers Coombs and Feve went to explore. The Japanese reinforcements found them. Coombs was unfortunately shot. Witt calmly asked Coombs to go back to report the news to the main force, leaving behind Combs asked him to rely on the current to leave, and then went alone to divert the Japanese troops.
The surrounded Witt looked deeply at the leading Japanese army, he seemed to want to say something, and stopped again, he suddenly raised his gun, and was shot dead by the rushing Japanese army. The deputy company commander frantically asked Feif, who came back, where is Witt? Feve did not answer, waiting for him, is the corpse.
The U.S. military is finally leaving this land. They passed by many cross tombstones, where there are many souls, including Witt.
The vast sea and the cool sea breeze can't blow away this longing.
