Maybe "Dead or Dead" was able to make Yu Datie's blood boil in the blink of an eye. Yu Xiaoqing came here to seek recognition. He thought that even if, even if... at least Long Wenjian would be as happy as he was when he heard the news.
"How much time have you given me? A lifetime? How much time do I have? Ever since this shabby division was thrown at me, how long has it taken me to turn it into a fighting force? How long has it taken? From not even having enough to eat to now having hundreds of howitzers and mortars, how long has it taken?!"
"You said there's no road, and the transportation can't be brought up. How many people died of exhaustion in the Eighteen Townships of Zenda? How long did it take? I only sleep four hours a day, eat two meals a day, and eat the same food as you, just to have an idea of your physical strength. I collected all the information about that place, which is no easier than you stealing from me."
"I've been breaking the rules! Breaking the rules enough to get a division commander court-martial. I know that if we had to follow those rules, we wouldn't have to fight to death, and we'd be so anxious. That's why I've been turning a blind eye to you!"
Yu Xiaoqing pinched their leader's neck, and stared at him in the rainy night, his face shining.
Shuo Yu listened to their leader, even in this situation, he was still talking.
The sound of "die die" was hoarse, because his neck was tightly pulled, so his voice was not loud. He and Yu Xiaoqing looked at each other.
"The villages on the west bank are almost deserted. Most of them were captured and killed while repairing the Nantianmen Gate. Those who escaped said that Takeuchi wanted to pile the bodies as high as the Nantianmen Gate before we could pass."
"Hearsay, folk rumors, not worth mentioning!" Yu Xiaoqing loosened his hands, turned his body towards the South Heaven Gate, turned his back, and looked very elegant. The wind made the corners of his clothes flutter in the rain, rustling.
The raindrops hit his raincoat, making a small sound, and the leather shoes on his feet creaked, reminding Shuo Yu to get a pair of such leather shoes for their leader.
The words "dead, dead" were still being said, even if Yu Xiaoqing didn't want to listen, he just wanted to fight and didn't want to hear any discouraging words. He didn't come here to listen to discouraging words,
"Master, what I want to say is that nearly 10,000 people in the villages and towns on the west bank have died, and those who survived have fled into the mountains. Are the people on the South Heaven Gate really just what we see right before our eyes?"
At this point, Shuo Yu finally understood what the two were talking about. He looked up through the glowing raindrops in the air, looking at the Nantianmen covered by the thick rain and fog. It was now pitch black there, as if some huge monster was lying there resting. It was very quiet, but if you looked closely, very carefully, you would find that there were many small ants busying about.
He heard Fanla beside him muttering "urgent, urgent, urgent, urgent", and lowered his eyes to look at Silasila and Yu Xiaoqing. Yu Datiexue had a tense face and gritted his teeth, as if he was going to raise his hand and give their leader another five hundred at any moment.
"Remember, soldiers of our generation, this is an unprecedented defeat in thousands of years. We owe too much. We, you and I, and them, all deserve to die!"
Yu Xiaoqing waved his hand and pointed at the other side. He didn't give their leader a five hundred. He just twisted the collar of Si La Si La and pulled him to his side. Like a chicken, he pointed at the Nantianmen not far away and looked at it with him.
Their leader continued to add fuel to the fire by saying "I don't know the damned person".
Shuo Yu also wanted to say that the dead did not die because they deserved to die, and the living did not die because they did not deserve to die. No one deserves to die. At least some people are confused and do a lot of wrong things, but they never think that they deserve to die, such as Fanla's father.
Maybe someone really deserves to die, but it is never his job to judge whether or not someone deserves to die.
There is one thing Shuo Yu admires about Yu Xiaoqing, that is, he thinks he deserves to die because he dares to say that he deserves to die.
Shuo Yu looked at Yu Da Tiexue and said a bunch of his rotten apple theories, then he admitted that he was really wrong.
"I thought you had a shot every day, fought and failed repeatedly, and fought again and again. I thought you were brave enough to fight. I thought you were different from them. I thought you would be as happy as me. But I was wrong, really wrong. You, you are a rotten apple."
"You make some noise every day, you just want more things, you!"
Yu Xiaoqing put his hand on their leader's face, and it looked like he wanted to punch him. He had no choice but to cover his face and look at him, saying that he really didn't know. If they hadn't gone to the West Coast, he would be happy about the news, and he is still happy now, but besides being happy, he is more worried. Someone told him to think about the future, so he thought about it.
"I don't know, I really don't know, Master."
Shuo Yu knew that although their leader usually didn't like to tell the truth and always lied to them, and he couldn't say a single word of truth, but what he said was really the truth. He really didn't know.
If we really have to fight a war like this, a lot of people will die, many who could have been saved. Those are not numbers on a piece of paper, nor are they firewood in a fire pit. They are human lives.
"If we don't agree, there's no need to send it off! I don't want to see your soldiers saluting me crookedly."
But just as he turned around, he saw Shuo Yu and Meng Fanle saluting him, and it was a big salute. The best thing about Old Yu was that he would not vent his anger on others.
But at this moment, Long Wenjian, who was left behind by him, spoke again.
"Commander, when will we attack?"
"I've long since learned to keep secrets from officers who have no fighting spirit! Maybe a few months?"
