The trembling sound of "death, death" seemed to come from his empty stomach.
Before Shuo Yu could speak, his empty stomach responded to his leader first.
He waited for a long time until the surging sound stopped, and he finally could say something, so he said,
"We can win because we're not playing for anything else, we're playing for ourselves, just for ourselves."
Shuo Yu put his hands on the head of the man in front of him, knocking his head on his feet, and patted his head in front of him, pretending to be ready to be killed, and just repeated this sentence,
"We will win."
"We will win."
He didn't know how much time had passed, but no one came to look for them. They just stayed there, unable to see each other. If it weren't for the sound of heavy breathing, he would have thought he was the only one here.
He looked at his captain, at the blurry head hanging in front of him, and spoke slowly, not knowing if his captain could hear him.
"Captain, death isn't the end of the story. It never is. You said the dead are watching us from heaven, and if we die too, we'll continue watching them from heaven. You said you made it up to trick us, but I believed it. Those guys out there believed it too. Even Fanla, the guy who doesn't believe in anything, believed it."
"You're not a liar, at least not in our hearts. A liar uses something he doesn't have to make others believe he has it, but you're not. You gave us your dream, and you asked us to dream it with you. This is the only thing you have, right? So this isn't a lie, and that's why we will win. As long as we still have this land in our hearts, as long as we still want to go home, we will keep winning, until the next five thousand years."
"This is our land, our home. No one can take it away from us. It's the only thing we have. Will you give it up?"
He suddenly felt very despicable, but he heard his captain say,
Banxian'er, you're so kind! You've found your answer, but I haven't. How can I find mine? One person's answer is theirs alone. Where is mine? You know everything, yet you say nothing. I often feel like you're the dumbest among us, because you believe everything I say. But sometimes I also think you're the smartest, because you believe in something in your heart, something different from everyone else's. Isn't that a wonderful feeling?
For a moment, Shuo Yu felt that the person in front of him who was begging for mercy was very pathetic. Sitting in front of him was the most pathetic and pitiful person in the world, his captain.
He looked at the head that was raised up. It was dark and he could not see anything. He just knew that this dark guy was his leader. He touched the dark head and a little helplessness appeared on his face.
"I don't know anything, Captain. Just like you said, my answer is mine, not yours... Captain, please stop lying to me. Lying too much will really bring retribution."
"Yeah...I can't lie to you anymore—"
A few minutes later, the news that they had advanced one level was passed on to everyone who was still alive. Fanla stood up and shouted with great effort, "Long live Master Yu!" He also explained to Zhang Lixian that he just missed He Shuguang a little.
Zhang Lixian didn't care anymore. He was annoyed that the guy kept talking about "Xiaozui" in his ear and had to make him react. Shuo Yu looked at the twitching corners of Zhang Lixian's mouth and ignored the lawsuit between them.
On the 30th day of holding the Nantianmen Gate, everyone was convinced that they would win.
…
Yesterday, the Japanese dug a hole under their feet, trying to get in through the ground. However, before the hole was dug open, they were blown up by a grenade thrown by Bu La and his men. Now half of the ground in their tree fort is tilted, and they have to hold on to something when they sit.
Sakutama and the others thanked Takeuchi a thousand times for not blowing up the monster tree, but instead digging a hole in the tree to serve as his headquarters. Even though the Japanese soldiers who had transformed themselves into groundhogs had dug a hole in the ground under them, the tree still did not collapse.
As long as the roots of this tree are still there, this place will remain intact.
Today they grabbed some airdropped supplies, and then the Japanese retaliated even more fiercely. He thought Takeuchi Renshan had no idea what to do with these guys who had occupied his command center, and just planned to let them fend for themselves. However, he didn't expect that they would show up to steal things after every airdrop, so he became even more angry and retaliated like crazy.
This time the one who opened the box became Shuo Yu,
There were only thirty-eight breathing guys left. Except for a few squatting at the door to defend, almost all of them put their heads together, waiting, watching, gazing, hoping, and thinking.
Shuo Yu washed his hands before opening the box, fearing that his hands were too dirty. However, they really needed some food to fill their stomachs. He just hoped that the box was full of food. If so, they could survive for another ten or twenty days.
Milong's machine gun was out of bullets, and the muzzle was already pointing to the sky. Its only purpose was to intimidate the Japanese soldiers in the bushes on the opposite hillside. His men had already gathered in front of the treasure box that they had fought so hard to snatch back this time, and put their eyes close to it, as if they could see what was inside.
