This war will be fought, not on the frontier or on some distant battlrfield, but amongst us. Among our homes. Our children will learn of it with their own eyes. Our children will learn of it with their own eyes. And the innocent will die with the rest of us. I will not fight. (This war will not be fought on the front lines, nor on distant battlefields, the fires of war will burn around us, in our homes, our children will experience it for themselves War is terrible. Their innocence will die with us. I will not participate in war.) War will always bring only painful lessons to mankind. No one can profit from war. War is the most important thing for people. The scary thing is not the physical damage, but the mental damage. War will make a person cruel. After all kinds of life and death, they will be indifferent to many things around them. They will like to carry them quietly by themselves. They will often have nightmares. During the war, many people will watch their comrades die in battle and leave them forever, but you can’t do anything but accept them silently. Usually, they will also take this kind of emotion. This is the saddest thing to bring to normal life after the war. War is always a terrible word!

To defend the independence of the nation, we must rely on the people at the bottom. The more people who have been humiliated by the British army, the more instinct and passion they have to fight against oppression. When men look at their wives and children affectionately, and then stand up without hesitation, it already means that this war has the broadest popular base, which is also necessary for victory.
Only now I know that the victory of the American Revolutionary War and the victory of the Chinese Communist Party were based on the same pattern, that is, fighting guerrilla warfare, uniting the people at the lowest level, and attacking the enemy unexpectedly, rather than hitting the enemy head-on, shooting a shot for a different place, and making a forty-two thousand jins. Strategy wins.

Finally, when he left again, the youngest daughter finally spoke. It turned out that she didn't want her father to leave, because Every time her father can't accompany her for a long time, a short meeting means a long separation.
