Chapter 385 The Angry Division Commander Li
Seeing the crowd's flushed faces again, Commander Zhang's gaze hardened as he swept his eyes over them, and he raised his voice once more:
"Rest assured, everyone, we Chinese people have never feared any enemy. Those who invaded our country will be made to pay a hundredfold."
We must let them know that China is not a country they can bully at will!
"That's right, we will definitely lead everyone to drive these invaders out of our land completely and restore peace and prosperity to China!"
Upon hearing this, Commander Li clenched his fist and shouted passionately to the people present.
Their words ignited the passion of everyone present. The soldiers felt a surge of energy and raised their arms in triumph:
"Drive out the invaders and defend China!"
Drive out the invaders, defend China! Those who are not of our race must be punished!
The sound was extremely loud, almost deafening, as if it were about to pierce the sky, with each shout from the soldiers.
The people and viewers in the live stream couldn't help but cheer along.
In an instant, the atmosphere at the scene reached a climax, as if victory was already in sight, and the smiles on their lips were so wide they could hang oil bottles on them.

"How dare the people from Japan! How dare they!"
An angry, almost roaring voice rang out from inside the 52nd Division's tent. Commander Li felt so angry that he was dizzy.
Especially after learning what was going to happen next, he became so angry that he almost collapsed. If Political Commissar Zhao hadn't caught him with quick reflexes, he probably would have fallen to the ground by now.
More than 300,000 people! That's a full 300,000 people! They were just brutally murdered by those beasts.
No! To be precise, it's not just over 300,000 people; the number of those not on record is unknown.
Those beasts were incredibly cruel, resorting to the word "massacre"—shooting, burying alive, burning—each and every one of their acts was so bloody.
Six weeks! A full six weeks!
He really couldn't imagine the despair the people must have felt back then, the feeling of being utterly helpless and desperate. It truly pierced his heart.
I just learned that they have failed in City A, where they are currently stationed. I guess I'll just have to take those bastards down with me!
Learning all this truly chilled him to the bone. Those who are not of our kind must be killed!
"Commander, please sit down and have some hot water. There's still time; that incident hasn't happened yet."
Now that we have Commander Zhang and his men's help, we'll definitely make them pay for their blood debts—two lifetimes' worth of bloodshed—this time, we'll settle accounts with them once and for all!
Supporting Commander Li, who was so enraged that he could barely stand, Political Commissar Zhao quickly picked up the hot water on the table, wanting Commander Li to drink some. He was afraid that his commander would faint from anger.
After resolving the issue at the South Station, they returned to the 52nd Division amidst the reluctant gazes of the people.
After everything was arranged, we were finally able to sit down and have a detailed discussion.
Unexpectedly, this conversation really made them furious and upset.
They failed to hold City A. If... if they had held it, there wouldn't have been the massacre that followed.
The thought of more than 300,000 people enduring six weeks of brutality and torture made his eyes sting and he wanted to cry.
But when he saw his teacher unsteady on his feet, he tried his best to calm down.
He hurriedly helped Commander Li, who was about to fall, and only breathed a sigh of relief after helping him to his seat.
"That's right, two lifetimes of blood debt, this time, we must make them pay double!"
"Commander Li, we've come here to make them pay. Next, we'll clear out the Japanese troops stationed around City A."
After City A is completely cleared out, we'll begin the nationwide cleanup until every city is free of Japanese citizens! Then, it will be time for us to take over Sakura Island!
"If you ask me, we should just bombard Sakura Island flat! That would be so much more satisfying!"
"That's a good idea, but even if we bombard Sakura Island to the ground, it won't quell the hatred in our hearts. The best way is to see them in despair, but there's nothing we can do about it."
After seeing that Commander Li was alright, the voices of Commander Zhang and the others came one after another, becoming more and more excited as they spoke.
In the end, everyone agreed that bombing Sakura Island flat would be too easy for the Japanese. How could they be allowed to die so easily?
They thought the Japanese soldiers could experience the despair of being trapped in a desperate situation with no one to save them!
Upon hearing these words, Commander Li's eyes lit up immediately. He slammed his hand on the table and replied excitedly:
"Yes! That's right, you're all right. We must not let them off easily. We need to let them experience what it's like to be trapped in despair."
"Shooting them all off would be too easy on them! I'll contact the higher-ups right now and tell them what happened!"
After saying that, he got up first and walked towards the liaison room.
Seeing this, Political Commissar Zhao wanted to follow, but he couldn't let the two of them go together, so he decided to stay.
My mentor has a short temper; I reckon he'll be chatting with the big leaders for a long time.
I don't know how the tents outside are being set up. After all, there are many people coming from later generations. The 52nd Division only has a few thousand people. Originally, there were more people, but they all died in battle, so only a few thousand people are left.
In fact, it wasn't just their 52nd Division; all the garrisons had the same problem: supplies were extremely scarce, and manpower was also in short supply. Otherwise, they wouldn't be eating cornbread and drinking hot water every day.
Thinking back to the way back, I heard Zhao Yang and his gang of rascals chattering away about the delicious food they had for lunch.
His stomach was churning with cravings; meat and rice were things he never even dared to dream of.
"Hahaha, come on, let's go out for dinner first! After Commander Li and the higher-ups finish their report, we'll have a proper talk."
Seeing how enthusiastic everyone is, how about we take out a Japanese base tonight? The one that sent fighter jets today! What do you say?
Seeing Commander Li leave in such a hurry, Commander Zhang and the others couldn't help but chuckle, especially after seeing Political Commissar Zhao secretly swallowing his saliva; they could barely suppress their smiles.
But it's getting late, so let's go eat first. A full stomach will give us the energy to do things tonight, right? Thinking of this, I couldn't help but chuckle.
At this moment, Political Commissar Zhao was only focused on eating and then going to fight the Japanese devils.
His heart immediately filled with excitement, and he nodded repeatedly in agreement.
