Shanghai: The First Warlord of the Republic of China

"So, although it seems that we have always had the upper hand, in fact, under the crazy attack of the Japanese, we have also suffered heavy losses."

"In fact, this is already considered relatively good, because this time the Japanese invaders deployed nearly one million people to launch the attack."

"There were more than one million people, and we lost 200,000 people, which is actually a small number."

"Generally speaking, in this kind of large-scale maritime melee, the chance of casualties is basically 30% to 40%, or even more than 50%."

"We have 200,000 people, which is really a small number."

"Moreover, we wiped out at least 500,000 Japanese troops with 200,000 casualties."

"If we calculate it in terms of casualties, our casualties are actually very small. The Japanese have twice as many as us."

Xu Wenqiang explained to Ye Yunfei the reason for so many casualties.

After listening to it, Ye Yunfei also understood.

In modern-scale combat, the casualty rate is already very high.

In particular, the firepower of the Japanese devils was quite terrifying.

Any random shell dropped could cause dozens or even hundreds of casualties.

The Japanese launched an extremely crazy and fierce attack on Shanghai, so 200,000 casualties was considered relatively small.

Moreover, Xu Wenqiang also said that Longmen lost 200,000 people, while the Japanese lost 500,000 people.

Their casualties were twice that of Longmen.

Considering that the military strength is almost the same, it is indeed acceptable that the casualty rate is only half of that of the Japanese.

However, it is not easy for Longmen to recruit people, and Ye Yunfei felt a little pain in his heart after losing 200,000 people at one time.

But as long as this battle is won, that's enough.

After all, Shanghai is the most important.

By protecting Shanghai, we can protect the Longmen base camp, and we will be able to recruit people continuously in the future.

If Shanghai is lost, the Japanese will be able to rely on Shanghai to invade Longguo and finally annex the entire Longguo.

By then, even the Dragon Kingdom would be gone, let alone Longmen.

Therefore, these losses are completely acceptable.

Ye Yunfei asked: "Are there any other clues?"

Xu Wenqiang said: "Also, there are the casualties and property losses of the people of Shanghai."

"Because the Japanese carried out a devastating bombing on Shanghai, and the people of Shanghai had almost no power to resist, they suffered heavy casualties under the fierce bombing by the Japanese."

"According to statistics, at least hundreds of thousands of civilians were killed in this battle, and hundreds of thousands more were injured."

"The casualties among the people in Shanghai were also very serious."

After hearing this, Ye Yunfei's face became a little solemn.

One hundred thousand killed and hundreds of thousands injured, this number is still very large.

However, there is no way around it. As long as a battle occurs, there will be casualties.

Soldiers will suffer casualties, and so will civilians.

This is inevitable and no one can change it.

The dead cannot be saved, and now the best remedy is to save the living.

Thinking of this, Ye Yunfei said: "Send all the injured to the hospital for treatment."

"All families with casualties will be compensated, and we will strive to help the people of Shanghai recover in the shortest possible time."

"Also, if anyone at home is in trouble because of this battle, we should help them appropriately."

"In short, try to minimize everyone's losses."

Xu Wenqiang nodded and said, "I understand, Brother Fei, I'll arrange it right away."

Ye Yunfei said: "Okay, is there anything else?"

Xu Wenqiang shook his head and said, "I don't have any more here."

"I have something else to do."

At this time, Ding Li spoke again.

Ye Yunfei asked: "What do you want?"

Ding Li said: "Brother Fei, when I was checking the battlefield, I found some Japanese soldiers who fell into the sea."

"These little devils are not dead. They are all in the sea and are trying to swim out."

"I caught them all."

Ye Yunfei said: "Aren't these prisoners? How many are there?"

Ding Li said: "About a thousand people."

Ye Yunfei said: "No need to say, kill them all."

He had no good feelings towards these Japanese prisoners. They were all invaders and had massacred the Longmen disciples.

Although there are policies in the international community that treat prisoners well, he doesn't buy into that.

All prisoners captured by him, especially the Japanese prisoners, must die.

No one can escape.

Ding Li said, "I know that these people must die, but I found a rather strange person among them. She is also a captive, but her identity seems to be somewhat unusual, so I am reporting to you."

Ye Yunfei asked: "Why is he so unusual? What is his identity?"

Ding Li said: "This is a woman, probably around 20 years old. When I was interrogating her, I found that the other Japanese soldiers were in awe of her and tried desperately to protect her."

"After careful investigation, I found out that this woman seems to be a member of the island country's royal family, and seems to be the biological daughter of the current island country's emperor."

"I feel like something is a little strange, so I came to tell you."

The daughter of the island emperor.

Ye Yunfei was also a little surprised when he heard Ding Li's words.

The daughter of the island country's emperor is also coming to participate in this battle.

It feels a little unreasonable for a member of the royal family to personally participate in the war.

Ye Yunfei said: "Are you sure that she is the daughter of the emperor of the island country? Do you have any evidence?"

Ding Li said: "There is no evidence, but there is a cherry blossom tattoo on her shoulder. I heard that in the island country, only members of the royal family can have cherry blossom tattoos on their shoulders."

"Also, her temperament is different from the other little devils. She is very beautiful and her skin is very tender. It is obvious that she is not an ordinary soldier."

"I feel that this woman might really be the daughter of the Japanese emperor."

Ye Yunfei nodded after hearing this and said, "From what you said, it seems to be true."

"Come on, take me to see this woman and see what's going on."

In fact, he was not interested in whether the woman Ding Li was talking about was the daughter of the Japanese emperor.

Even if she is the emperor's daughter, she is also an invader and must die.

He was just a little curious. If she was really the daughter of the island emperor, why would she come to the front line to participate in the battle in person?

Such a dangerous thing does not seem to be done by someone of such a noble status.

Go and take a look, there's nothing else to do right now anyway.

Ding Li said: "Okay, Brother Fei, I'll take you there."

"Let me tell you, that little Japanese woman is really beautiful. I have never seen such a beautiful woman before."

"You've seen it, it's absolutely stunning..."
