Pudong.

Inside the concession, in a courtyard.

The steps are made of bluestone marble, the stone pillars on both sides are carved with wave patterns, and there are seven or eight stone sculptures placed in an orderly manner in the courtyard.

There is also an artificial spring in the center, and a British-style stone sculpture of a broken-winged angel in the middle.

Han Chunxue looked at the scene in front of her without much expression.

My mind was still on the contents of the manuscripts. I looked ahead and walked into the lobby under the guidance of a staff member.

Compared with the outside, the style inside is completely Chinese.

Two rows of green bamboos were placed in an orderly manner, and a screen suddenly appeared in front of the two people. Surrounding it were the four treasures of the study, ancient paintings and ancient books. It was completely the residence of an ancient scholar.

Han Chunxue, who was originally a little dazed, paused and looked back subconsciously. For a moment, he thought he had walked into the wrong door.

Outside, inside, west?

At this moment, a loud voice rang out.

"Unstoppable! Unstoppable! Unstoppable!"

"Damn it! Monkey, did you see that? It's only been a few days and Niangzi Pass has been taken! The damn Japs probably never dreamed that the regiment commander would attack Niangzi Pass."

"I usually tell you to read more books, like the Thirty-Six Stratagems and Sun Tzu's Art of War. You need to have some knowledge so that your brain can be sharp."

"This clear-coded telegram invites all of Jin to besiege Yuancheng. This is a major counterattack!"

Xu Jingqiang's voice kept coming, but Guo Yunming frowned and said, "Brother, can you use another word besides unstoppable?"

"What the hell are you thinking? There are no words to describe the captain at this time!" Xu Jingqiang said loudly again.

He also wanted to use some other idioms, but after talking carefully, he realized that this was the only idiom he knew that could describe what was happening before his eyes.

That look of being unjustified yet confident made Guo Yunming turn his head silently.

Suddenly, he saw someone bringing Xu Lan in, and he couldn't help but cough lightly.

Xu Jingqiang also noticed the movement at the door, turned around and immediately straightened his Zhongshan suit which had become a little messy due to excitement.

When Xu Lan and Han Chunxue stepped into the hall, they were greeted by a row of eye-catching portraits.

Wise eyes, a burly figure, and wearing a cape.

Although he only has one foot, he still stands upright, with his remaining right hand pointing to the distance. The whole figure looks mighty and domineering.

Xu Jingqiang caught this scene immediately. Looking at the two people looking at Captain Lin's portrait for a long time, he couldn't help but straighten his back.

Because he knew that this portrait of his would definitely show Captain Lin's greatness, wisdom, bravery, spirit, etc. to the fullest.

Xu Jingqiang took slightly faster steps, with a kind smile on his face and his front teeth showing.

"Ms. Xu, long time no see." Xu Jingqiang put one hand behind his back and spoke politely.

"...Long time no see." Xu Lan was a little unable to adapt to Xu Jingqiang's transformation.

"Ladies, please take a seat." Xu Jingqiang sat down on the sofa and fiddled with the tea set with his rough hands.

There was a sound of ceramics colliding in the middle, and finally the tea mixed with tea leaves flowed into the cups of the two people.

Xu Lan and Han Chunxue looked at each other, with a strange look in their eyes, and they didn't know how to start for a moment.

"Ms. Xu, what brings you here this time?" Xu Jingqiang broke the silence with gentle words.

As soon as these words were spoken, Xu Lan immediately became serious.

"Boss Xu, there's something I need your help with. It's about the Tiger Guards." Xu Lan sat up straight with a serious look.

"Do your best." Xu Jingqiang said without hesitation, and immediately put down the hand holding the teacup to make tea and leaned forward.

"We will publish a report on Jindi, and we need your help in distributing these newspapers as quickly as possible."

Xu Lan spoke in a serious tone. In Pudong, Xu Jingqiang's ability was unquestionable, and he might not be the biggest gangster here.

But their strength is top-notch.

Xu Jingqiang made great efforts to transport the supplies out, and his influence was widely distributed underground in Pudong.

After Xu Lan finished speaking, she took out a manuscript and handed it to Xu Jingqiang.

Xu Jingqiang moved slightly, as if he had thought of something. After taking the manuscript, he raised his hand and handed it to Guo Yunming:

"You read, and I listen."

After saying that, he slowly picked up a teacup from the table, sat upright on the sofa, and listened quietly.

Guo Yunming picked up the manuscript, glanced at it casually, and with a calm expression, stood aside and read it aloud to him.

"Lin Tianchen, the commander of the Tiger Guards, was formerly a soldier in the 798th Regiment of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army. The 798th Regiment lacked the will to fight and refused to listen to advice, which led to a major defeat."

"Feeling the loss of his country, he gathered the defeated soldiers and formed an armed force to resist the people... because he did not want to give in any further."

The more he read, the higher Guo Yunming's voice became:

"Commander Lin once said, 'If it is beneficial to the country, life and death are of paramount importance. Why should we avoid it because of good or bad fortune? Civilians do not cherish money, and warriors do not cherish their lives. The duty of a soldier is to sacrifice his life for the country."

"More than twenty remnants of the Cangyunling troops charged a squadron of three hundred Japanese soldiers, fighting desperately for a chance of survival, and fought in various places..."

"Dozens of men launched a surprise attack on the Sakata Regiment headquarters... Then, in an ambush, four hundred men raised their flags and engaged over a thousand remnants of the Sakata Regiment, completely annihilating them..."

"Yu Guhe, completely wipe out the Yamazaki Battalion."

"With two thousand men, we penetrated deep into the enemy's war zone, first breaking through Taigu, engaging Ping'an, and stopping Zhenhun... annihilating over ten thousand Japanese soldiers and nipping the spring offensive in the bud."

"In the Jin-Cha-Ji region, we are implementing the cage strategy to recapture Qiufeng, Beizhen, and Niangzi Pass..."

"He said that it's not about seeing hope that leads to persistence, but about persisting that leads to seeing hope."

"If you don't have the equipment, seize it."

"Every step of the way is a fight to the death."

"In Black Cloud Village, the souls of the dead make the wind chimes ring. They know life and death, but they defend this land with their lives."

"Now, he has advertised nationwide, inviting the heroes of Jin, just to recapture Yuancheng! I hereby implore everyone who sees this newspaper to rush to Yuancheng and recapture it!"

"..."

In the guest hall, many younger brothers unconsciously moved closer in order to hear clearly.

Guo Yunming's passionate voice echoed in the hall.

Xu Jingqiang's hand, which had just raised the teacup, stopped in mid-air. He held the cup tightly in his hand, his face flushed.

Without taking a sip, he put the drink down, stood up, walked to Guo Yunming's side, and listened attentively.

Guo Yunming stood among the crowd, and before he knew it, a large circle of people had gathered around him.

In the entire living room, there was no other sound except Guo Yunming's voice.

Until Guo Yunming finished speaking, he handed the manuscript back to Xu Jingqiang.

Xu Jingqiang took it with a complicated expression. Looking at the portrait, he seemed to see Commander Lin and the bravery of the soldiers.

"Well written! I don't like the writing... Four hundred men bravely charged a thousand Japanese soldiers, more than twenty defeated soldiers risked their lives. Damn, this is what being a soldier is like!"

"I don't expect every soldier to be as strong as the regiment commander, but if they don't dare point a gun at the devils and use it as a crutch to run, I fucking despise that kind of people the most."

“We never persist because we see hope, but we see hope because we persist.”

"Damn Yan Laoxi, he's such a jerk. He actually made Captain Lin a soldier... jerk..."

"Cough cough..."

Xu Jingqiang spoke faster and faster, and even at the end he was choked by his words.

One button of his Zhongshan suit had already been stretched out by his burly figure.

After the passionate voice and cough, Xu Jingqiang paused for a moment and looked at Xu Lan and Han Chunxue who were a little stunned.

For a moment, the atmosphere was a little awkward.

After a moment, Xu Jingqiang coughed twice, looked at everyone and said:

"Ms. Xu, Ms. Han, this newspaper is absolutely unstoppable. We must also do our part to help the captain capture Yuancheng. If there is anything else we can help with, just let me know."

Xu Jingqiang's tone was full of seriousness, but the excitement in his eyes could not be shaken off. At this moment, he was calm on the surface, but his heart was already boiling with passion.

Xu Jingqiang continued to maintain his state, just wanting to do his best to get rid of Xu Lan and Han Chunxue, because he was really uncomfortable now.

"Yunming, cooperate with Miss Xu. After the newspapers are produced, distribute them to the various docks as quickly as possible. They should all be distributed for free. However, don't concentrate them in one place. Spread them out more and have your brothers pay more attention to them."

Xu Jingqiang gave orders quickly.

Upon hearing this, Guo Yunming nodded heavily.

"Boss Xu, thank you very much this time." Xu Lan said with a grateful tone.

"It's no big deal, Yunming, please help me send Miss Xu and Miss Han off..."

Xu Jingqiang looked at Guo Yunming, then turned to look at the portrait, his eyes full of respect.

Xu Lan followed Guo Yongming and walked outside step by step. She looked back at Xu Jingqiang's back. He was standing under several portraits with a respectful look and his face was full of piety.

"It seems that Boss Xu respects the person in this portrait very much." Xu Lan muttered in his heart.

The portrait is missing arms and legs, but the eyes still have wisdom, the body is burly, and the person is being carried by someone wearing a cloak.

Pointing to the distance with one hand, there is a feeling of being in command.

The domineering attitude is about to break out of the portrait frame.

But, is this still a human being?

Xu Lan thought about it seriously. As far as she knew, Xu Jingqiang was born in Northeast China. This might be a belief somewhere in the three northeastern provinces, or he might be a well-known person.

"Captain, it's hard... too damn hard..."

"The momentum is unstoppable... Captain Lin is unparalleled in the world... Damn, it's unstoppable."

Xu Jingqiang's excited voice could be heard from the hall, and Guo Yunming's pace quickened.

Xu Lan and Han Chunxue had originally planned to stop, but seeing this they could only follow silently.
