Others also asked for orders.
Yue Xiangli looked up from the map and turned to look at Hua Zhige, "Go."
It’s hard to come back from this time.
Hua Zhige saluted him and said, "I will not fail in your mission!"
Hua Zhige turned around and ran out, heading for the northern front with his subordinates.
Two months later, Hua Zhige and his men intercepted five waves of reinforcements, but he was also hit by several bullets. He lay in the trench, his consciousness was blurred, and the sound of his own gunfire gradually disappeared from his ears.
All our own people have sacrificed their lives, and there is no one left.
After the enemy fired a lot of shots, they advanced again.
Hua Zhige slowed down his breathing, used his last bit of consciousness to pull open the explosive pack, and threw it out. The huge force blew the enemy away.
The last small group of enemies was also successfully intercepted.
I wish to use my body to stop the war.
Ning Sangyu annihilated the enemies on other fronts and happened to see the explosion when he led his troops over.
"Go and see if anyone is still alive?"
"yes!"
Ning Sangyu squatted in front of Hua Zhige, looked at the man whose eyes were still open, and closed his eyes.
She whispered, "Master Hua, we won."
There was a photo embedded in the helmet that fell to the side. After clearing away the dirt, five people could be seen in the photo.
Yue Xiangli, Hua Zhige, Zheng Kaisheng, Xiang Zaihe, and Yan Qiupei.
Hua Zhige was carried away on a stretcher and Ning Sangyu took the photos away.
After two months, the three armies won a great victory, which greatly boosted the morale of the whole country.
Also, the casualties were heavy.
When Ning Sangyu took the photo back, Yue Xiangli was also dressed in black, patrolling the trenches.
Seeing Ning Sangyu coming to him alone, he understood something, "You didn't come back, did you?"
Ning Sangyu nodded, "Yes, he didn't come back. The body was carried away."
She handed him the photo, "Found it in the hat."
Yue Xiangli took the photo, looked at it as he walked, and said, "This photo was taken in 1920, which is 19 years ago."
After reorganizing the troops again, Yue Xiangli stayed in place as ordered.
In July 1941, Yue Xiangli received another letter.
From Yan Qiupei.
He looked at the letters that had been sent to him from many places and was actually afraid to open them.
Yue Xiangli handed the letter to Ning Sangyu beside him and said, "Sangsang, read it to me."
Ning Sangyu opened it and put away her heavy mood.
"From the Marshal himself, I am glad to see your letter..."
"From the Marshal himself, I feel as if I have seen you:
As you can see from this letter, I have already served my country.
I left my wife and children first, and now I am leaving you and your wife.
I have been holding a gun for twenty-five years. First, I guarded the three eastern provinces of Qing Dynasty with you for eleven years, then I held the gun secretly for ten years, and then I fought against foreign enemies for four years. I have been on the battlefield for half a lifetime, but I have never lost my original intention.
I am defending the city to the death. The corpses are taller than the walls and the enemy is so numerous that I can’t see the end of it. But I cannot and dare not retreat. I know there is no possibility of my survival, so I put pen to paper.
Kaisheng, Zaihe and Zhige are leading the way, and now I am going too, so we are of the same mind.
Five of us started out as comrades at Jingxi Mountain, and have been together for more than twenty years, but now you are the only one left.
I cannot see the sun rise, so I hope you can offer us a sacrifice in the future, bring a jug of good wine, and tell us your victory.
I am willing to fight for my country and have no regrets.
April 17, 1941, Yan Qiupei wrote his last words.
Her voice was choked with sobs.
Yue Xiangli looked at the photo on the table in front of him and said, "Sangsang, I am really a commander without troops. My division commanders can no longer lead the troops."
