During the war-torn Republic of China period, the land of Longguo was divided up by foreign powers, warlords fought each other, and the people suffered.

Yongxin County, a small town located on the border of Hunan and Jiangxi, was originally peaceful and harmonious, but it was also caught in the vortex of war.

The peasant army commander Wang Yaxin and Yuan Wencai worked together to lead the peasant army soldiers to defend the city and resist the invading enemy.

After another round of fierce fighting, they successfully annihilated Zhu Wu and his group who had climbed onto the city wall, temporarily stabilizing the shaky situation.

In the makeshift hospital in Yongxin County, the time traveler Zhao Shao slowly woke up.

He looked around in confusion, and saw that most of the people around him had broken hands and feet, which was a horrible sight, but he himself had all his limbs intact. It was just that the impact of the explosion made him hard of hearing and a little stupid. In a trance, he thought he had traveled through time again.

At this moment, he caught a glimpse of Liu Mazi standing beside him. He was startled at first, then a look of surprise appeared on his face. He spoke eagerly, his voice sounding particularly high-pitched due to his hearing impairment:

"Liu Mazi, where am I?

How is the war going?

Why am I lying here?

what time is it now? "

Liu Mazi hurried forward, gently pressed Zhao Shao's shoulders, and with a look of relief and concern in his eyes, he soothed him:

“Don’t worry, Zhao Shao.

The war has stopped temporarily, you are in the hospital, safe, it is now noon on August 6th."

Zhao Shao frowned and interrupted him impatiently:

“How did I get here?

I remember I was still at the East City Wall!"

Liu Mazi took a deep breath and said slowly:

"You were fighting on the East City Wall when a shell suddenly exploded nearby. The huge impact knocked you unconscious.

Liu San risked his life to rescue you from the battlefield and brought you here.

The situation was critical at the time, with gunfire and bullets flying everywhere. Liu San ignored the danger and carried you out from the pile of dead bodies.

After Zhao Shao understood the situation, a look of determination flashed in his eyes. He threw back the quilt, stood up quickly, and said while putting on his shoes:

"No, I have to go out and see. This war is of great importance."

After saying that, he hurriedly left the ward, his footsteps quick, causing a slight gust of wind.

He was extremely anxious and knew well the cruelty of the Yongxin defense battle.

According to the historical data he was familiar with, the enemy attacked many times during this war. Although the peasant army fought bravely for many days, on August 6, for some unknown reason, the enemy launched a full-scale attack and the city gate was finally broken. The leaders of the peasant army had no choice but to abandon the city, and the county residents and wounded soldiers who did not have time to escape were brutally massacred by the enemy.

In order to avoid tragedy, he had previously arranged for Liu San to observe the enemy's siege situation on the battlefield, striving to reduce casualties.

.........

At this time, after finding out about Zhu Wu's death, the enemy corps commander Zhu Kan glared at him and slammed his hand on the table. The tea on the table was instantly spilled all over the floor, and the sound of the teacup breaking was particularly harsh in the tent.

He roared:

"Since you killed my nephew, you should be buried with him!"

His face flushed red and the veins on his neck bulged, like an enraged beast.

Completely disregarding his previous cautious plan, he turned and strode to the center of the tent, shouting an order:

"Pass on my order. All the troops that the regiment can mobilize, press forward and launch a general attack!"

Chief of Staff Qian Youcai showed hesitation on his face. He hurriedly stepped forward, bent slightly, clasped his hands together, and gently admonished:

"Commander, what if we get blamed by the higher-ups for our actions?

You are always calm and composed, so this action is probably too impulsive."

Zhu Kan's eyes were cold, he glared at Qian Youcai fiercely, and said with gritted teeth:

"I have made up my mind, please stop trying to persuade me!

If we fail to capture Yongxin County this time, how will I, Zhu Kan, have the face to go back?

My Zhu family's prestige in the military will also be completely destroyed."

He then raised his voice and shouted outside the tent:

"Issue another order, and you'll be rewarded one dollar for every enemy you kill!"

This move instantly made the soldiers, whose morale was low due to the setback in the siege, excited. Cheers rang out one after another, and a new round of attack began.

The soldiers poured out of the camp like a tide, and the shouts of killing shook the earth.

Before Zhao Shao could even climb up the city wall, the enemy's attack was already coming in full force.

With the help of the system prompt, he moved as nimbly as lightning, dodging left and right quickly, avoiding the speeding bullets as if assisted by God.

This scene left the peasant army comrades around him stunned.

One of the comrades opened his eyes wide, opened his mouth into an "O" shape, and exclaimed:

"Oh my goodness, this is unbelievable!"

Another comrade was distracted and was hit by an enemy bullet in an instant. His body shook and he fell straight down, with blood spreading on the ground.

Zhao Shao had no time to consider the reactions of the crowd. With a determined look in his eyes, he crouched down and shuttled through the hail of bullets, shouting non-stop:

"Liu San!

Xiao Si!

Li Xi! Where are you? "

His voice was partially muffled by the noise of battle, but it still carried unmistakable anxiety.

His heart beat rapidly, and he was worried about the safety of his comrades every second.

Finally, in a corner, he found Liu San, Xiao Si and Li Xi, the remaining members of the class.

Liu San was half-kneeling on the ground, loading his gun with bullets, his forehead was covered with sweat, his eyes were focused;

Xiao Si leaned against the wall, a trace of fear on his face, but he still held the gun tightly in his hand, his knuckles turning white from the force;

Li Xize squatted aside, staring at the front vigilantly, his body trembling slightly.

Zhao Shao stepped forward quickly, a look of relief on his face, and asked Liu San anxiously:

"Remember when I told you that the enemy fired the least shots on that side of the wall?"

Liu San raised his head and quickly answered, "Where the sun sets."

After Zhao Shao received the answer, his eyes instantly turned cold. He raised his gun and shouted:

"Follow me!"

He rushed out first and exchanged fire with the enemy.

Bullets whizzed past his ears. He kept changing his position, looking for the best shooting point, and the gun in his hand kept spitting out flames.

He could feel the impact of the recoil with every shot he fired, but his eyes never wavered.

But the enemy's offensive on the battlefield was too fierce. The distance of several hundred meters passed in a flash, and the enemy quickly approached the city wall.

Zhao Shao looked at the enemies coming at him like a tide, and his heart trembled. He made a quick decision, turned around and shouted to his comrades:

"You guys hold on first, I'll go find Captain Wang!"

After saying that, he crouched down and ran towards Wang Yaxin amidst the hail of bullets.

His figure was looming in the smoke, and the ground beneath his feet was bumpy and uneven due to artillery shells.

At this time, Wang Yaxin was standing behind a battlement on the city wall, holding a gun in both hands and continuously shooting at the enemy.

His face was covered with dust and smoke, but his eyes were extremely firm, like a god of war.

Zhao Shao ran to his side and said breathlessly:

"Captain, we can't hold on any longer. I'll take my squad to the hospital and lead the remaining troops out."
