Chapter 615 Her Figure Overlaps with Her Predecessor

“So, Li Shiyan must have led his troops to the northern battlefield.” Lu Jinye suddenly spoke up, continuing Wen Ni’s words, “Or perhaps, he had already gone to the northern battlefield when we led our troops straight to the capital.”

Upon hearing these words, they could almost see Li Shiyan's face, brimming with a playful smile, asking them: "Do you choose to take the capital directly to end this war and avoid greater casualties, or do you come to the northern battlefield to rescue your relatives and brothers?" They had no choice but to select one of the two.

Wen Ni's complexion was not much better than Lu Jinye's.

The northern battlefield is precisely the battlefield where the 83rd Group Army has been locked in a fierce battle: the northern Myanmar region with support troops from Myanmar!

...

While fighting has subsided in southern Myanmar, the conflict in northern Myanmar continues unabated.

News of the capital being captured by China did not reach them so quickly. The Chinese soldiers responsible for holding back the northern Burmese were all determined to resist the Burmese reinforcements from the north and prevent them from entering the heart of Burma to provide support!

The stranded Burmese soldiers are still dreaming of the main force advancing into the heart of China to avenge their previous defeat, and this is the only belief that has sustained them until now.

"Company commander! The enemy is coming up the north slope!"

"Company commander! The enemy has destroyed the position on the south slope! The brothers of the third platoon... are all gone!"

"Company Commander!!"

Before the crowd could even grieve, another piercing scream rang out.

A sergeant covered in blood, with both arms severed, stumbled back from the front lines!

That was... a reconnaissance outpost they sent out.

"A brigade of Burmese troops is approaching us!!"

After shouting this sentence at the top of his lungs, the outpost soldier plunged headfirst into the mound of earth in front of him and fell silent.

Everyone was astonished

The man in the lead was covered in blood and wounds. His face was resolute, but the blood-stained scars made it impossible to tell if he was handsome or not. Only his eyes were piercing, revealing the ferocity of a leopard!

"Company Commander Liu Shuzheng! Let's retreat! Our 357th Company doesn't have many men left! We can't hold out!"

"357th Company, 357th Hero Company".

Liu Shuzheng did not retreat an inch. He held the red national flag in his right hand and plunged it straight into the muddy ground mixed with blood!

"Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, Japanese invaders ravaged the land, leaving hundreds of thousands of Chinese people dead and bleeding in a sea of ​​blood! Our predecessors in the 357th Company never retreated, and even led more than a hundred men to defend Wengshan, giving the main force time to catch their breath and launch an attack!"

"After the founding of the nation, the powerful enemy attacked again, attempting to break the backbone of our Chinese nation! The 357th Company still cannot retreat! As long as we have people, even if there is only one left, we must not retreat! We cannot let these lackeys affect the advance of our main force!"

A passionate voice echoed in the dark sky.

More and more people stood around Liu Shuzheng, until they filled almost half the hilltop!

"We are here! As soldiers of the 357th Company, we are willing to build a wall with our flesh and blood! If the enemy wants to cross, they will have to step over our corpses! Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible!" The 357th Company had only a little over a hundred men left, all of whom were full of courage and determination.

Their eyes and the ground beneath their feet seemed to burn with raging flames, blooming with brilliant red peonies!

The enemy forces were advancing aggressively, right down the slope.

Liu Shuzheng held up the magazine, which was only half full, and raised his hand high, ready to lead the remaining men in a final charge!

Suddenly, I heard a sound like the earth trembling behind me...

Along with it came deafening shouts and sounds of battle!

It was as if those predecessors of the past, and the fallen comrades and colleagues, had returned from hell to fight their way back.

"This is……"

"It's the flag of the 85th Group Army!! Company Commander Liu! Look!"

Like gods descending from the heavens, the soldiers in their military green combat uniforms brushed past them one by one.

With their hands full of ammunition magazines, the soldiers stood in front of the 357th Company, charging forward with fierce momentum!

"The 1st and 3rd brigades of the 85th Group Army..." Liu Shuzheng breathed a sigh of relief.

The body, which had been holding on, momentarily lost consciousness!

He turned slightly to the side, and his gaze suddenly fixed on something.

Along with the 85th Group Army, there was another person, a woman.

She was dressed in military green, wearing a helmet, and holding a not-so-new sniper rifle, which she occasionally raised to aim at the enemy, her marksmanship extremely accurate.

Every bullet she fires from her gun is capable of killing the locked target instantly!

"Wen, Ni?"

Just as Liu Shu was completely relaxed, everything went black before his body collapsed. He saw the girl in military uniform first freeze for a moment, then run towards him with a gun in her hand!

The wind whipped the girl's hair, revealing her delicate face and wheat-colored skin. Faint scars on her skin added a touch of sharpness, and her bright eyes were full of spirit!

For a moment, it seemed to overlap with a certain figure.

Liu Shu closed his eyes and thought for a long time in a daze before finally figuring it out.

It's that statue standing on the hill behind Company 357.

It is that unwavering belief and spirit etched into the very bones and blood of the 357th Company...

Liu Shuzheng still remembers the first time he met Wen Ni; she was just as vibrant and youthful as she is now. As an instructor sent down from the special forces, she stayed in the 357th Company to assist in the filming of the military documentary variety show, "Brave People."

At first, he only knew that she was a member of the special forces. It wasn't until the earthquake struck and the special forces captain with the rank of colonel came looking for her that he realized she was actually a member of the Sharp Sword team!

A sharp sword, the sharp sword of China.

That is the legendary hall in the hearts of all soldiers!

This is a place only the elite of special forces can enter!

How many trials and tribulations must one go through?

How much suffering and torment must they endure?

How many more times will I have to undergo bone reshaping?

How can one become such a top-tier existence that everyone can only look up to?

And she was a girl.

Yes, a girl in her early twenties! Yet she did it. She must have paid a hundred or a thousand times more than others!

No wonder, he saw the shadow of his predecessors in her.

In the history of the 357th Regiment, in the Battle of Wengshan, a battle that is still heartbreaking to recall, the young girl who led more than a hundred people to defend the mountain was just a young woman in her prime at the time...

Liu Shuzheng was seriously injured, but he was strong-willed and quickly woke up.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the flames of the campfire leaping up, casting a flickering, illuminating image of the girl sitting in front of the fire.

"senior……"

"Um?"

Wen Ni, who was warming herself by the fire, was taken aback.

What senior?

She turned her head in confusion and saw that Liu Shu's eyes, which were dazedly open, were filled with tears of varying depths!

"Senior, the fact that I can see you with my own eyes, does that mean... I'm already dead?" Liu Shuzheng was sobbing and talking to himself. "Where are the other brothers? They should be here too, right? Did we win the battle against the Burmese?"

"..." Wen Ni remained frozen in place, watching him with tears streaming down his face.

"Although I'm happy to see you, senior, I didn't expect to die so soon..." Liu Shuzheng became more and more heartbroken as he spoke, wiping away his tears with his dirty, blood-stained sleeve. "Xiwen and I were already engaged, and she... she was still waiting for me to come back home..."
