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

About an hour later, everyone had their own letter home.

One by one, they came to Yang Huimin with letters.

"Thank you!"

"sorry to bother you."

"Thanks....."

Yang Huimin took the letters one by one with trembling hands and carefully put them into a wooden box.

All the soldiers thanked her gratefully.

She also kept bowing to express her gratitude.

Finally, she saluted all the soldiers again, breathing tremblingly, trying to remember everyone's face.

"stand at attention!!"

Under Xie Jinyuan's order, everyone saluted Yang Huimin again.

"Go ahead, girl."

Yang Huimin took one last look and left without looking back...

The next morning, all the soldiers gathered on the roof.

Li Chengqian looked at a young face on a piece of paper. There was no Dragon Boat Festival, no Old Abacus, and no Little Hubei.

They are just ordinary Chinese people, but they are also towering mountains.

"It is impossible for a China like this to be destroyed. It is absolutely impossible!" Li Jing sighed.

Li Chengqian took a deep breath and said, "Take a few more glances. We don't have much time left."

At this time, there are only 30 minutes left before the three-day crossing time.

Li Jing, Hou Junji and others had already been notified by Li Chengqian in advance.

So at this time they all looked at the soldiers silently, stood beside the soldiers, and looked at Xie Jinyuan in front of the team.

"Brothers from the 88th Division!"

Xie Jinyuan pointed to the other side of Suzhou River and said: "On the other side are the observation groups from Western countries. Behind me are our compatriots."

"We are not just resisting the Japanese invaders here, we are showing them that we are still here, the Chinese army is still standing here."

"We soldiers never retreated a single step. As long as we were here, Shanghai would not have fallen."

Everyone looked at the national flag rising slowly with excitement.

Li Chengqian also looked up, although this national flag was not the red flag he longed for.

But this did not hinder the burning desire to serve the country in his heart.

The anti-Japanese war does not distinguish between positions or camps.

As long as they fight against the Japanese and kill the enemies, they are Chinese!

The sun rises in the east.

When people on the other side of the river saw the flag rising, they all took to the streets with heavy steps.

When the flag is raised, the nation's hope is also raised.

They stopped and looked up at the flying flag.

The bus stopped and the rickshaw stopped too.

All the pedestrians on the road also stopped.

They silently took off their hats, held their chests and looked up at the flag...

"Fire the gun for our dead colleagues!" Xie Jinyuan raised his head and saluted the national flag.

The soldiers lined up in an orderly manner, pointing their guns into the air.

Boom boom boom!

"China will not perish..."

"China will not perish..."

"We will not die..."

"Long live the Chinese nation..."

"The Chinese nation will win!"

The flag-raising scene on the rooftop and the soldiers' shouts were seen by the people and reporters on the other side of the strait.

Including the foreigners, they all stood up straight and looked up at the towering flag.

Xie Jinyuan came to the rooftop facing the Suzhou River and saluted solemnly to the people on the other side.

Cheers and shouts filled the South Bank.

The people shouted slogans such as "Long live the Chinese nation!"

But this scene was soon discovered by the inhumane Japanese invaders.

They immediately called for air support and planned to start a strafing and massacre of the soldiers on the roof.

The sound of an airplane humming could be heard in the distance; the enemy plane was rapidly flying towards this side.

The Japanese invaders in the distance gathered again and did not hesitate to use tanks again.

But the flag is still there, they cannot retreat, they must protect the flag.

"Thank you, Captain. Leave this to us. Go organize the soldiers to kill the enemy. We are here to take care of it."

Xie Jinyuan pushed Li Chengqian away and said, "No, you are just Chinese from Southeast Asia. Even if I have to sacrifice myself, I will be the first one to do so."

Li Chengqian rushed to Xie Jinyuan again and said, "Are the Chinese in Southeast Asia no longer Chinese? Captain Xie, please give us a chance!"

Xie Jinyuan looked at Li Chengqian and finally hugged his shoulders tightly: "Good job, I'll leave this place to you."

"Thank you, Commander. I have one more thing to tell you. When we evacuate in two days, you must not lay down your weapons. Even if your superiors give the order, you cannot lay down your weapons."

"Even if you are being hunted down and found guilty of disobeying military orders, you must not lay down your weapons."

"Our souls can leave our bodies, but the guns cannot leave our hands."

"Go to the south to find the guerrillas, go to join the New Fourth Army. No matter where you go, as long as it is anti-Japanese, it is anti-Japanese no matter which camp you are in!"

"do you understand?"

Although Xie Jinyuan didn't quite understand, he still nodded heavily: "I understand, I will never lay down my arms."

Li Chengqian didn't say any more words. He turned around, picked up the sniper rifle and aimed at the plane speeding in the distance.

Boom! !

Missed!

Boom boom!

He still missed, the key point was that he had no bullets left.

"Why are you still standing here? Hurry up and take the brothers down. I am here to protect the flag. We are here to protect it!"

Li Jing also stood up and pushed Xie Jinyuan away: "Get down quickly!"

Cheng Yaojin even held a machine gun and used the last bullets to vent his excitement.

"Hahaha, come on, you bastards, I'm going to kill you."

Hou Junji even pulled out a knife and put it on Xie Jinyuan's neck: "Are you going to retreat or not? If not, I will attack you."

Xie Jinyuan looked at them with red eyes, and finally gritted his teeth and ordered: "Everyone follow me downstairs, keep your useful bodies, and avenge your comrades."

The soldiers shed tears and took a last look at Li Chengqian and the others.

Finally, he resolutely turned around and went downstairs.

They cannot let their comrades’ sacrifice be in vain. They must do their best to kill the enemy to make their sacrifice worthwhile.

Li Chengqian dropped his sniper rifle, stood under the flagpole, and looked at Li Jing and the others.

"Everyone, let's die again!"

Cheng Yaojin threw away the machine gun that had run out of bullets and hugged the flagpole tightly: "Haha, I can finally return to the Tang Dynasty."

Li Jing, Hou Junji, and the guards all gathered around the flagpole.

They glared at the planes in the sky and held their ground against the flagpole.

chug chu...

Japanese planes tried to knock down the flag, but under the flagpole built with the flesh and blood of the Tang Dynasty soldiers, the flag still stood there firmly.

"Fuck you, I've died twice, but this really hurts!"

Cheng Yaojin was hit in the abdomen, his intestines were all over the floor, but he still forced himself to smile.

Chug tug tug.....

The people and common people on the other side of the strait could only witness this tragic scene with tears in their eyes.

International observers had never seen such a tragic and heroic battle and were deeply shocked by the courage of the Chinese soldiers.

At this time, under the strong opposition of the British and American public concessions, the Japanese planes had to retreat after two rounds of strafing.

Xie Jinyuan rushed to the roof immediately, but what greeted him was a pile of corpses under the unfallen flag.

Under the firepower of the enemy aircraft and cannons, Li Chengqian and his men were not spared and all died heroically.

There wasn't even a complete body.
