War of Resistance: Glory of the Beasts

Chapter 127: Wise people do not distinguish between races and countries
early morning.

When Xu Chaoyang woke up, he felt wet and uncomfortable all over, as if he had been soaked in water.

The other Mongolians had already stood up and were slowly rolling up the sheepskin felt from the ground while communicating with each other.

At this moment, Xu Chaoyang, who opened his eyes amid the chaotic noise, felt very uncomfortable. He frowned and wanted to get up, but he saw a strong Mongolian man looking down at him in his sight.

"You didn't sleep well this night, did you?"

He stretched out his hand towards Xu Chaoyang.

Xu Chaoyang raised his hand and held it, using the force to pull himself up. When he turned over and stood opposite Li Haidan, he said, "Maybe he is not used to Inner Mongolia yet..."

Li Haidan said with a heavy accent: "You can't adapt."

He smiled and said, "When we sleep by the river, the humidity is high. At night, the humidity will increase the dew, so the grass by the river is always wet. Have you seen my people? We all have sheepskin blankets. When we sleep at night, we press down the surrounding grass so that the dew has nowhere to attach, which will be much better."

Xu Chaoyang asked in confusion: "Then why not unplug it?"

"Pull it out?" Li Haidan looked at Xu Chaoyang like a prodigal son: "The riverside is the most fertile grassland on the grassland. What will the cattle and sheep eat if the grass is pulled out?"

"People eat sheep, wolves eat sheep, sheep eat grass, if the grass is pulled out, the sheep will be gone, and neither people nor wolves will have anything to eat... How come you have the same idea as those devils?"

Japs?

Xu Chaoyang clearly felt that Li Haidan didn't understand what he meant. He was saying to pull out the grass by the sleeping place, not to pull out all the grass by the river.

But Li Haidan was still talking: "In 1894, they launched the Sino-Japanese War and obtained million taels of silver;"

"In 1900, they came to this land again with the Eight-Nation Alliance, and together with others, they took away million taels of silver;"

"In 1906, they fought with the Russians and, in addition to gaining huge benefits, they also took over Korea;"

"In 1914, through the war against Germany, we obtained a large amount of land here and the German South Pacific islands;"

"In 1918, during the Sino-Soviet War, they once again gained a lot of benefits..."

"They seem to be extremely wealthy now, but in fact they are wreaking havoc on the grasslands of Asia. They are almost completely destroying the grasslands. Sooner or later, they will completely incur the wrath of both humans and wolves."

This is the first Mongolian person Xu Chaoyang knows who has such a vast reserve of knowledge. He can also express so many profound truths through grassland, which gives a sense of simplifying the complex.

"Commander Li really knows a lot about Japan."

Xu Chaoyang and Li Haidan walked slowly on the grassland. Li Haidan said with a bulging belly: "I don't want to understand them either, but I have to fight them."

"You know what? In the eyes of the Japanese, we no longer exist."

"They have already made all the plans for Asia..."

This time it was Xu Chaoyang's turn to be shocked. As a time traveler, he certainly knew that Japan was ambitious and scheming, and dreamed of dominating Asia, but this Li Haidan?
"You don't believe it?" Li Haidan took out a book from his arms. It was a book with even the cover labeled in Mongolian. Of course, this book was the Japanese version, otherwise it would not be labeled in Mongolian. The name of this book was - "Outline of the Principles of the National Reform Plan".

This book was written by an unknown Japanese in 1919. The author Kita Ikki is therefore called the originator of fascism. This book was six years earlier than the art student's "My Struggle", but the ideas expounded in this book can be summarized in one sentence.

Since war can make a country strong and prosperous quickly, then what is the point of those messy ideologies that don't know right from wrong?
Since winning the holy war can enslave others, prevent other countries from resisting, and quickly seize a large amount of wealth, why not head directly to the end of the "law of the jungle" and play the winner-takes-all game?
Thus, a crazy country emerged. They did not even have to make a choice and went straight to the path of militarism which was bound to lead to self-destruction.

The national destiny at that time helped them, just like more than ten years later, when the Japanese were waving the yen and going on a shopping spree all over the world, they were waving the scythe of death at the whole of Asia.

Since Xu Chaoyang came to this era, he has never met someone with such a clear vision in international perspective. This Li Haidan was like showing a magic mirror to the Japanese and directly telling the truth.

It turns out that smart people in this world do not have to be divided by nationality or even ethnicity. It was really surprising for Xu Chaoyang that such a person could appear among the Mongolians, who are generally considered to be dull and honest. Before this, he felt that most Mongolians had another kind of energy, an energy that made it impossible to understand what you were saying to them.

After hearing what Li Haidan said, Xu Chaoyang thought about it again and found that the grassroots of any nation seemed to... seem to have the same energy that he felt in the Mongolians. It seemed that he had misunderstood this nation too deeply before.

“You know Japan very well.”

This is not a compliment from Xu Chaoyang.

But Li Haidan’s answer was: “Knowing and being able to fight are two different things.”

"I fought them more than once in Inner Mongolia, and the casualty ratio was 1:5."

He stopped and turned to look at Xu Chaoyang: "You will never believe the reason why I am here, nor will you believe that before I came here, I had 5000 people. I also organized them into five armies: center, front, left, right, and rear. Each army has a commander and a helper..."

Xu Chaoyang smiled. He seemed to see an ancient general setting up camp.

"Thousands of young men used their lives to tell me that times have changed. Only then did we gradually figure out how to fight when using cavalry to fight against the Japanese."

The commander who came out of the palace seemed to be really different. This Li Haidan not only understood Japan, but also knew about the "battle damage ratio".

Li Haidan looked at Xu Chaoyang and said, "You don't believe it? Are you looking down on me?"

This Mongolian nobleman from the royal palace, a high-ranking official who led 5,000 troops, actually rolled up his sleeves in front of all his subordinates and said, "Fall down?"

Xu Chaoyang was completely convinced by this sentence and was even amused.

Well, a company commander and a Mongolian commander, the two of them were wrestling on the grassland with nothing to do... I would have thought the Anti-Japanese War had been won.

"No, no, no..." Xu Chaoyang waved his hands quickly. Why are you yelling at this time? Someone just saved your life, didn't he?

Seeing Xu Chaoyang's refusal, Li Haidan did not force him, and said to him very seriously: "In the Northeast, there is no soil left to continue fighting the devils. Come with me?"

"The grassland is vast and the sky is high. Let's take Tongliao and use it as our base. We can ride our horses and fight the Japanese all over the grassland. How exciting would that be?"

Uh... Xu Chaoyang really couldn't accept their way of chatting. Just now he was rolling up his sleeves and was about to fall, and now he's starting to poach people...
