Chapter 75: Leaking Military Secrets
【Parallel world, fictional, regarding the camera issue, everyone just assume it is a digital camera.】
At the headquarters of the 20th Army.
Xiao Ningxin and Yang Sen are conducting an interview.
During the interview, regarding certain military secrets, Yang Sen refuses to say anything at all.
Sometimes, the questions Xiao Ningxin asks are extremely tricky.
Yang Sen even finds them difficult to answer.
Therefore, after Yu Hua arrives at the headquarters of the 20th Army.
"Now is a time of war; everything must serve the war effort."
Xiao Ningxin shakes her head, "Hmph, let's go see Army Commander Yang."
"This is conducive to improving the image of our Sichuan Army among the national populace, and it will be easier to recruit soldiers later."
Hearing this, Yang Sen and Xia Jiong frown slightly.
Whenever a soldier says it is a military restricted area, Xiao Ningxin retreats on her own and does not pester them.
"I myself am just an ordinary person, unlike those soldiers who sacrificed themselves at Dunwu Temple."
"The photos inside the camera were all taken by me at random; are these all areas where one can walk?"
These photos were just taken at random.
Xiao Ningxin looks at Yu Hua: "Company Commander Yu!"
"Army Commander, I will certainly accept Reporter Xiao's interview properly."
A general's success is built on ten thousand withered bones!
Having experienced the debate culture of the new era's internet, Yu Hua easily dismantles Xiao Ningxin's offensive.
He also talks about the stories of ordinary soldiers and other officers.
Yu Hua hurriedly steps forward and snatches the camera from Xiao Ningxin, "No need to take photos."
"They are the true heroes, and it is they who used their own bodies and blood to forge a Steel Great Wall."
"These few Mountain Guns blasted the Japanese soldiers until they cried for their fathers and mothers, and even destroyed the Japanese airfield."
Yu Hua's gaze hardens as he looks at Xiao Ningxin, "Reporter Xiao."
"Yu Hua!"
Yang Sen looks at Yu Hua and says softly, "What military secrets are in here?"
Seeing Yang Sen's instruction, Yu Hua nods: "Yes!"
Yu Hua sighs at length, "Officers like us, after we die in battle, can at least leave behind a little record."
This makes Xiao Ningxin so angry that she grits her teeth.
Yu Hua nods, "Yes, Army Commander!"
Yu Hua hands the camera to Yang Sen.
"Several news media outlets in Shanghai, upon learning of this matter, came specifically to the artillery position to conduct interviews."
"You should cooperate well with the interview regarding our Sichuan Army."
"How could it possibly become a military secret?"
This makes Xiao Ningxin feel that this person, Yu Hua, is quite good.
"If you want to take photos, please take pictures of the ordinary soldiers."
"Let me take a look at the camera."
"Reporter Xiao, I do not want to become a well-known figure."
"During the day, we hide the artillery in trenches to avoid the Japanese planes' reconnaissance."
The two of them wander around the vicinity of the Sichuan Army headquarters.
Yu Hua is different from those officers who believe heroes create the times.
He cares more about the ordinary soldiers who died in battle at Dunwu Temple.
This person, Yu Hua, truly does not care about these empty titles.
Walking and chatting, the notebook in Xiao Ningxin's hand is already filled with several pages of writing.
"Once the Japanese planes arrive, we might not even have time to hide."
Hearing this, Yang Sen's brow furrows slightly.
Hearing Yu Hua say this, Yang Sen grins and says: "You kid aren't saying that the Japanese, relying on this newspaper..."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ningxin's eyes widen, revealing an expression of disbelief.
"For example, this photo of the command post, and this layout of the area surrounding the command post!"
"Every day when it is about to get dark, we shell the Japanese Navy Marine Corps."
After leaving the command post, Yu Hua also begins to accept Xiao Ningxin's interview.
"Are these Japanese really that sharp?"
"Therefore, Reporter Xiao, you should focus on reporting these fallen heroes instead."
One by one, they all talk about how they command their troops, how they kill the enemy, and how they repel the little Japanese's attacks.
In this era, many officers do not pay much attention to secrecy and do not care much about some very ordinary things.
These little Japanese are truly too formidable!
"Army Commander, the noses of these Japanese, damn it, are really sharper than a dog's."
This is going from the specific to the general, bringing the Sichuan Army unit to life.
"Some of the content in your camera might need to be deleted."
Hearing this, Xiao Ningxin's delicate brows furrow slightly, and she pouts, "On what grounds?"
Yu Hua shook his head, "Reporter Xiao, this really involves military secrets."
Yu Hua grinned, looking at Yang Sen and saying, "Army Commander, the Pudong area, Zhang Fakui's Eighth Group Army."
Yu Hua then said, "Army Commander!"
There were not only the officers' commands but also the details of ordinary grassroots soldiers fighting bravely against the enemy.
And Yu Hua kept emphasizing the entire battle.
Xiao Ningxin had interviewed other officers before, but when those other officers were being interviewed...
"Why don't you talk in detail about your combat experience at Dunwu Temple?"
"Once the photos are published, as long as the devils buy a copy of the newspaper, it will report on the Sichuan Army."
After taking the camera, Yang Sen flipped through it; the contents of the film roll contained no military secrets at all.
"Let Army Commander Yang be the judge."
Yu Hua kept a straight face, "Reporter Xiao, I'm sorry!"
Yang Sen hurriedly had Yu Hua come forward, "Yu Hua!"
"No, you must return the camera to me now."
"Otherwise, it will bring huge harm to our troops!"
Saying this, Yu Hua followed Xiao Ningxin and left the th Army headquarters.
Subsequently, Yu Hua checked the contents inside Xiao Ningxin's camera.
Yang Sen also had people keeping an eye on things and had also spoken to Xiao Ningxin.
He saw that Xiao Ningxin had photographed the th Army headquarters and the surrounding layout.
"There is no need to specifically elaborate on my story."
"The interview even has special illustrations."
"Some of the content in your camera involves military secrets and must be deleted."
"I am a reporter, I have the freedom to take photos."
Seeing Yang Sen say this, Yu Hua's head also ached.
Yu Hua wanted to delete some of the photos inside, saying they were military secrets.
Arriving at the headquarters, Xiao Ningxin told Yang Sen that her camera had been snatched away by Yu Hua.
Her hands, white as snow, were sore from writing, and her hand holding the pen was trembling.
Xiao Ningxin wanted to go to the headquarters to have Yang Sen judge, and Yu Hua had no choice but to follow.
The interview was over!
Xiao Ningxin raised her camera, preparing to take a photo of Yu Hua.
Even, Yu Hua could remember how every ordinary soldier sacrificed themselves.
Although Xiao Ningxin had suffered at Yu Hua's hands, Yu Hua gave Xiao Ningxin a very good impression.
"There is absolutely nothing about your own deeds!"
"Possessing several German-made Bofors Mountain Guns, setting up an artillery position right under the devils' noses."
"Plus the surrounding layout, taking a map to look it up, and then comparing it."
"One could quickly analyze the actual location of our command post."
"These are just ordinary photos, right?" Yang Sen grinned and said, "There are no military secrets."
The two of them still found it hard to believe that the little devils could find the Sichuan Army's headquarters just by relying on a few photos.
"This is already a leak of secrets!"
He hadn't told Xiao Ningxin any military secrets at all, and furthermore, there were restricted areas.
Looking at Yu Hua, "Company Commander Yu, you're trying to scare me, right?"
"They found the artillery position and even destroyed it."
Chatting while walking, the entire interview lasted for two hours, regarding some of the sharp questions Xiao Ningxin raised.
Yu Hua waved his hand, "Forget it."
"They are more worthy!"
Seeing Yu Hua refuse again, Xiao Ningxin was also deeply moved in her heart.
"Regarding the battle at Dunwu Temple, you have said so much."
"One can tell this is our th Army headquarters; there is an antenna in the photo."
"This Reporter Xiao, you accompany her from here on."
"They need history to remember them, and even more so, they need to leave a mark in the long river of history."
Although this guy was annoying, when he recounted the Sichuan Army's battles, he didn't just mention himself.
"Ordinary soldiers, once they fall in battle, they probably don't even have a name in the long river of history."
"Military secrets?"
"The devils' planes carried out a carpet bombing on the trenches where the artillery position was hiding."
Upon hearing this, Yang Sen, Xia Jiong, and Xiao Ningxin were all dumbfounded.
