Zheng Yushu unfortunately died and fell in a pool of blood. She was the captain of the Northern Korean guerrillas, a fighter who fought for the country's independence. At the same time, she is also a daughter who fights to avenge her father, and is her mother's only support.
Some people say that it is worth the trade of one life for another. Looking at the eyes of Zheng Yushu looking at Liang Chen before her death in "Scout Hero", you can understand how precious Wen Jie's life is. Sometimes, women can really be stupid enough to risk their lives to fulfill others.
There is a sentence in "Big Dreamer": "What is the name of the person who can make you leave everything behind to meet." Since witnessing the murder of Daddy Cui, Zheng Yushu knows that only by sending Liang Chen to the North Shore Volunteers can she save her life.
She and Cui Damiang carried stretchers and struggled towards the river, but the enemy search was extremely intensive, not only with two detachments, but also patrolling every ten minutes, with an interval of only three minutes each time. It's just too tough for two women!
Aunt Cui lost her husband in the morning and is now almost in a state of collapse. If it weren't for saving Liang Chen, maybe she would have collapsed on the ground and couldn't move. When Daddy Cui was still there, Aunt Cui was just a supporting role, not only cowardly and afraid, but also never experienced bloodshed and sacrifice.
Zheng Yushu didn't have time to comfort, so she could only force herself to deal with everything. Alone, she touched the place where the boat was hidden, and while the enemy was leaving, she quickly lifted the boat with one hand and dragged it to the river. When she returned, the lower half of her skirt was soaked, and she was even a little out of breath when she spoke. All this is not only because the boat is too heavy, but more importantly because it is too nervous.
She knew that once she lost Liang Chen and Aunt Cui, it would mean the loss of three lives. She couldn't let Liang Chen die, and she couldn't tolerate Aunt Cui's death. One is what she must save, and the other is the object of her deep affection.
After the enemy patrolled again, Zheng Yushu and Cui Damiang carried Liang Chen onto the boat. However, she was left alone on the shore, even though Aunt Cui repeatedly urged her to get on the boat. She understood that only by leaving a person on the shore and attracting enemy firepower would there be a glimmer of life.
Hiding in the shadows, Jung Ok-sook watched the enemy aim at the ships and rushed at them desperately, returning fire as she ran. However, the enemy forces were numerous, and the machine-gun fire quickly put her at a disadvantage.
In order to buy time, she changed the magazine twice, and in the end only the pistol hidden in her boot could protect her life. This Browning was left to her by her father, and when they fought with Liang Chen, they praised the excellent performance of this gun. However, at the moment she didn't care about that, because her eyes were on the boats floating in the river.
The ship is not far enough away for safety to be assured, and Liang Chen's rescue is uncertain, and she must continue to fight, despite the injury to her arm. The enemy had firepower, but they did not intend to shoot her immediately, on the contrary, they wanted to capture her alive. Therefore, the gunfire stopped being heard on the opposite side, and the enemy troops gave the order to stop shooting.
However, the pistol in Jung's hand once again cuts through the silence of the night sky, and the battle is about to break out again. A grenade, another grenade, the first one was in front of her, and the second one blew her up.
Zheng Yushu glanced up at the riverside and found that Aunt Cui had successfully rowed to the opposite bank and successfully completed her task. However, there was a hint of bitterness in her smile at this moment, because she only had the last bullet left in her magazine, and there were still several enemies, and only death awaited her.
In the face of the ruthless enemy army, Zheng Yushu said goodbye to her mother and followed her father, and finally chose to commit suicide with a bullet. One impressive detail is that the enemy only glanced at her as they passed her, and quickly left after confirming death. Obviously, in the eyes of the enemy, she is only regarded as cannon fodder to block bullets, and is not an important person. However, her true value lies in her success in saving an important person that her enemies dream of.
Jung Ok-sook is a fierce and fearless warrior, but she is also a woman. It's hard to imagine how she overcame her fears and confronted her enemies one by one in the dark of the night, when she was alone. Her name is little known, and she hasn't even found her right person yet. Running around in the mountains and forests all day long, she is not only a sharpshooter, comparable to hunters from the Oroqen clan, but also a witty and brave captain who can fight side by side with Liang Chen.
However, her life is forever fixed in this starless night sky. The corpse lay on the cold riverside, with messy hair, sweat on its face, and bullet holes all over its body, curled up, lonely and eternal. As "The Island" says: "This day of loneliness makes her happy, and now she tastes freedom and independence." ”
Turning the page of history, there may be a page dedicated to Zheng Yushu, a vibrant existence. For her, the end of her life was not meaningless, as she fulfilled her heart's desire. Young and painful, but in a way full and without regrets.
The first time Liang Chen woke up, he saw Wen Jie's little hand that he had been holding. The slightly cracked corners of his mouth expressed his happy oath. The person you like is right in front of you, crying for yourself, and you don't shy away from approaching with your head down. For a man, emotions can offset any pain.
Report, I am safe, and I am back safe. A few simple words, Liang Chen gasped several times. For a patient whose lungs have been pierced, this is already quite difficult. But for the sake of your beloved, no matter how uncomfortable it is, you have to say it.
When Wen Jie heard this, her tears fell uncontrollably like beads of broken threads. "Come back safely. These words were what Liang Chen said to him through the radio before he left. Today, this is a real reality.
Crossing the enemy's blockade line and blowing up the Yujiang Bridge is not easy at every step. Not to mention the word peace. For the sake of Liang Chen and Wen Jie, the division commander once kept the matchmaker, but the two failed to succeed. However, the pen that Liang Chen gave to Wen Jie became a token of love between the two. The pen was bothered to capture from enemy forces and used to write love letters. There's nothing more touching than being in love.
Liang Chen loves Wen Jie deeply, starting from seeing her pull out the grenade and prepare to die with the enemy, from the time she insisted on running to the front line to broadcast despite the danger, and from the division commander to match with the media. He fell in love with her, and the more he refused, the deeper he loved. Love is not allowed, and emotions are difficult to control.
There is a quote in "Mind Exploration": "Ordinary people are amazed by unusual things, but wise people feel greatness in ordinary places." "Liang Chen and Wen Jie don't meet very often. In terms of military technology, tactical literacy, and leadership skills, Wen Jie is only a civilian, and her greatest strength is that she is good at English and has strong empathy skills. During the battle, she was unable to help Liang Chen; And when she was resting, Liang Chen also found it difficult to provide her support.
Love is a wonderful feeling, emotions originate from unknowable places, and once germinated, they sink deep into people's hearts. Love is inexplicable, making people lost, but reluctant to let go. Liang Chen didn't know when he began to pay attention to everything about Wen Jie, and even secretly learned English, just to get closer to her. And Wen Jie treasured Liang Chen in the bottom of her heart, and gradually rose up, tears in strings, venting the sorrow in her heart.
There are different opinions about whether Zheng Yushu likes Liang Chen and whether there is love. However, for the sake of Liang Chen, she did not hesitate to pay for her life, just because she couldn't see the distance at a glance, she continued to fight, and once she saw far enough, she chose to drink bullets to end her life. Zheng Yushu finally received a grand condolence and a volunteer medal, as a soldier, this is the highest honor, but personally, my heart is full of regret.
When Wen Jie was buried in the air-raid shelter, not only did a company carry out tunnel rescue, but the division commander personally came to support and condole. She earned the respect of the POWs and treated her like a friend. And when Liang Chen saw Wen Jie crying, his love was overflowing, and he had already forgotten about his teammates waiting outside the door, and he didn't even give a trace of a look.
In order to create more opportunities for the young couple to get along, the division commander painstakingly arranged for Wen Jie to escort the prisoners of war, in order to give Liang Chen more time to warm their feelings with Wen Jie, who was sent back to China for healing. Zheng Yushu finally saved Liang Chen's life.
Father Cui saw Wen Jie rarely spoiling him, as long as she could save Liang Chen, she was willing to pay any price. Liang Chen saved Wen Jie's life, threw a grenade away at the critical moment, blew up the enemy artillery position, and became a life-saving benefactor.
Just like Leif and Danny in the movie "Pearl Harbor", they are brothers who grew up together, but Danny falls in love with Leif's girlfriend Evelyn, and in the end Danny dies to protect Leif. In "Scout Hero", Zheng Yushu's feelings for Liang Chen are very vague, but they are comrades-in-arms, and this affection is enough to make them close.
Zheng Yushu will never be able to become like Wen Jie, even after the war is over, she is still a warrior who is half the sky, not afraid of injury and sacrifice. And Wen Jie has always been the little woman full of emotions, she will cry when her lover is hurt, and she will cry when her lover is gone, because tears are the strongest way for her to express her feelings.
Just like Zheng Yushu's eyes looking at Liang Chen, just a few seconds contain thousands of emotions. Zheng Yushu sacrificed, if she could choose, she would rather survive, avenge her father's revenge, liberate the country, and then spend a good time with the person she admires. This was supposed to be a story of a lifetime of passion, the sky falling apart, and undying to death.
Wen Jie won love, or love is in the palm of her hand, as long as she sheds a few tears and bows her head to show goodwill, she can easily get it. Although they were both women and lived in the same era of war, their fates were very different. There is such a sentence in "Crossing Darjeeling":
Everyone is eager to discover new things and keep them in their hearts. For Jung Yu-sook, we feel sorry, but she will not regret it because she has succeeded in achieving her dream.
For Wen Jie, we are glad that she is lucky. Fate is destined for life, she lost a person who was already engaged, but got a better partner, someone who loved her deeply. Maybe that's the meaning of everyone's existence, don't complain about fate, and bravely follow the path you want without looking back. Whatever you gain, you must hold on, and what you lose, you will throw away without any nostalgia.
