Tang Dynasty, I can lead troops through ancient and modern times

"you're right."

Du Yuesheng, the leader of the Green Gang, suddenly came up behind them and said, "Let's not make trouble. Let's just watch how the soldiers in the Sihang Warehouse kill the enemy."

"All we can do now is provide logistical support. Are the supplies ready? Send them to the Sihang Warehouse immediately..."

On the other side, Xie Jinyuan, Li Chengqian and others pretended to shout after throwing grenades.

They joined the chaotic army and took advantage of the chaos to kill another wave of Japanese invaders.

Under Li Chengqian's instruction, Cheng Yaojin identified the hat of a Japanese officer and pretended to kill the officer.

But his actions attracted some people's attention.

"Enemy is lurking in, assemble quickly!!"

Li Chengqian hurriedly dragged Cheng Yaojin, who was in a killing mood, to retreat.

"Don't kill them, retreat quickly!!"

Cheng Yaojin kicked another Japanese invader to death, and then retreated with Li Chengqian in disappointment.

Under the cover of Japanese military uniforms, all 30 people escaped safely.

After they successfully returned to the Sihang Warehouse, before they could even catch their breath, a messenger ran up to Xie Jinyuan.

"Report, the superiors called and asked us to hold on for two more days and retreat on the 31st."

Just then, the soldier on guard in the basement came up with a wet girl.

"Report, a woman swam over from the other side and said she has something to give."

The girl came up to Xie Jinyuan, put three fingers together and saluted.

"Are you a Boy Scout?" Xie Jinyuan asked the girl.

"Report, Boy Scout Yang Huimin is here to report."

As she spoke, Yang Huimin took out the national flag tied to her body and handed it to Xie Jinyuan.

Xie Jinyuan solemnly took the national flag and said, "Stand at attention!!!"

All the soldiers, whether they could stand or not, saluted the national flag in Xie Jinyuan's hand.

"Brothers, we have just received an order. The Brussels Conference is being held as scheduled. The authorities want to let the world know that the Chinese army has not withdrawn and Shanghai has not been lost. The superiors have ordered us to hold on for another two days at all costs."

"The longer we hold on, the more support we can get from the international community at the conference, understand?"

"clear!!"

Xie Jinyuan waved Yang Huimin to his side and said, "Thank you for your courage, girl. Stand at attention!"

All the soldiers stood at attention and saluted Yang Huimin.

Yang Huimin quickly waved her hands: "I didn't do anything, you are the heroes, I salute you!"

Yang Huimin looked at the soldiers excitedly, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.

"Thank you, thank you for your perseverance..."

Li Chengqian and the others watched silently, feeling angry.

With united efforts, there is no need to worry about the destruction of the Japanese pirates.

But Li Chengqian knew that the so-called Brussels Conference was completely useless.

Chiang Kai-shek still held on to the mentality of mediation by the international community, which was simply stupid.

Doesn't he know that with the Japanese invaders having such a huge military advantage, the so-called mediation is a joke?

Western countries will offend the powerful Japan for them!

Anyone with a little common sense can see the trick here.

But Chiang Kai-shek was hoping for the best and wanted to make a final attempt...

Xie Jinyuan spread out the national flag in his hand, looked at the soldiers and said: "Brothers, raising this flag is a great insult to the Japanese invaders. They will attack at all costs, even using heavy artillery."

"By then, let alone two days, we won't even be able to hold out for a few hours. What do you think? Should we get promoted?"

The communicator stepped forward and said, "Commander, our superiors asked us to hold out for two days. Should we postpone the flag-raising ceremony?"

Another officer stepped forward and said, "Commander, we can hold out for two days. We can still fight if we try hard, but once the flag is raised tomorrow, we will not be able to complete the mission in two days."

Xie Jinyuan looked at the soldiers and said, "I think raising the flag can better show our attitude and the will of the Chinese people to the international community than holding out for two more days..."

"Raise the flag and let these bastards see that we are still here!" a wounded soldier shouted.

"Why don't you upgrade your own territory? Upgrade it~" another soldier shouted.

"I saved my life for two days, it's worth it, let's raise the national flag!!"

"Lift!"

"Lift....."

Xie Jinyuan looked at the soldiers' determination and said firmly: "Let's raise the flag early tomorrow morning!"

"If you have any last words, please leave them and let this girl help us deliver them..."

"I can't read!"

“I can’t read either!”

Yang Huimin wiped away her tears and came to a young soldier: "I will help you write..."

Li Chengqian raised his hand: "I can read, if you want to write a letter home, come to me..."

Li Jing also raised his hand, followed by Hou Junji and Cheng Yaojin.

Although the guards were not very literate, those who served as guards for the emperor and the dukes might have learned a few words and could barely write a letter.

Soon, all literate people joined the ranks of writing family letters and wills.

Fortunately, there happened to be some pens and paper for accounting in the warehouse, otherwise it would have been difficult to carry out this group letter writing.

Cheng Yaojin held a cigarette in his mouth and swung the pen: "This pen is too difficult to use. Next one."

A bearded man came over with a smile and said, "Mr. Cheng, here's a cigarette."

Cheng Yaojin took the cigarette without hesitation and put it aside.

Looking again, there were more than ten cigarettes of various brands piled up next to him.

This is not extortion, nor was it something Cheng Yaojin asked for.

Even when he didn't want to, the soldiers still refused.

After all, they are asking someone to do a favor, and the soldiers understand the social etiquette.

"Old Hu, what's the matter? Is this for me or my wife?"

Old Hu found it difficult to understand Cheng Yaojin's accent, so he just started dictating the letter home.

As for how much Cheng Yaojin could understand, it didn’t matter.

The value of a letter home is not its content, but the fact that it is a letter from a distant battlefield.

This is a kind of sustenance, a kind of longing.

A letter from home is worth a thousand pieces of gold!

Maybe this letter will not reach their family members in the end, but it still needs to be written.

This is the last concern in everyone's heart, and also the entrustment...

Therefore, Cheng Yaojin wrote Lao Hu's letter home according to his own ideas, combined with some words he could occasionally understand and his own understanding, and finally finished writing.

Although he was also a rough man, he missed his old mother at home all the time during the war at the end of the Sui Dynasty and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty.

So he felt the same way.

Although the words were rough, it did not prevent him from writing a letter full of longing.

Li Jing, Hou Junji and others were mostly like this.

Xie Jinyuan watched all this silently, and he was also writing his own letter home.

It was a farewell letter he wrote to his wife.

[Yuzhi, my wife Aijian, I am now rushing to Shanghai with the team, and I am willing to do my duty as ordered to provide reinforcements.]

【But my parents are old, my family is poor, my wife is young and my children are young, so I can't help but worry. 】

[If you can be frugal at home, you should be able to have enough food and clothing. If your parents are old and weak, you should provide them with more clothes and food on time.]

[When you grow up, you should still become a soldier, avenge your father and be loyal to your country.]

[One day, our flag will fly on the top of Mount Fuji, so that our descendants will never suffer this humiliation again...]
