A post-apocalyptic female soul travels back to the War of Resistance against Japan
Chapter 70 Returning Victoriously
At that moment, everyone stopped what they were doing, watching the villagers angrily vent their pent-up resentment by throwing stones and weeping. No one stepped forward to stop them. Yes, these invaders occupied our land, killed our people, and plundered our resources; they all deserved to die!
When everything stopped, the enemy troops had already been battered and bruised beyond recognition! The villagers gradually calmed down; the dead missed the living, but they still had to keep living.
The villagers also helped the soldiers clean up the battlefield, gradually erasing the traces left by the Japanese army. After Commander Wei directed the soldiers to finish cleaning up the battlefield, he arranged for our soldiers to be stationed in Wuqing County. At this time, Cheng Ying also put some of the looted food and supplies back into the warehouse, and put the weapons and ammunition into the armory, categorizing them properly before going to report to Commander Wei.
Because the Japanese army's occupation of the area had caused immense suffering for the local people, Commander Wei's first priority was to distribute some of the supplies to the villagers. The villagers were deeply grateful to the soldiers for avenging them and for sharing the looted grain with them, making them feel that their own country's soldiers were truly good!
Our army, having occupied Wuqing County, also dealt with some of the traitors there, thus restoring peace and tranquility to the people of Wuqing County.
After arranging for the stationed soldiers, Commander Wei led the remaining troops back to headquarters. Headquarters was already aware that Commander Wei and his men had captured Wuqing County and were very pleased. This success was largely thanks to Cheng Ying's strong abilities and prior preparations, which made the mission so easy.
Cheng Ying knew that in any war, there would be casualties, and supplies and food were scarce. Although she had recently salvaged a considerable amount, the sheer number of soldiers and villagers on this front was overwhelming. Therefore, Cheng Ying donated a large amount of food and supplies to the soldiers, even giving them some medicinal herbs. Her personal space was primarily planted with grains, with slightly fewer herbs. Even the fruit trees in the distance were now ripe. While the quantity of fruit wasn't large, it was enough to divide evenly, providing each person with several portions.
December arrived, the Lunar New Year was approaching, and the weather was extremely cold, with several heavy snowfalls. The soldiers got up early to clear the snow from the rooftops and yards. People these days are incredibly hardworking; there's always work to be done. Even during this winter season, they weren't idle. Some were weaving straw mats from the reeds they had cut, while others, like older women, were busy preparing for their daily meals. Sometimes, when the soldiers' clothes were torn, they would help mend them.
Especially now, thanks to Cheng Ying's supplies, there is no shortage of cotton and cloth. The elderly women are busy working tirelessly to ensure that the soldiers and children have warm cotton-padded clothes. Meanwhile, the soldiers are braving the cold to conduct tactical training, and the patrols and defensive fortifications are being strengthened little by little.
The villagers cared for the soldiers, and the soldiers cared for the villagers in return. They would sweep the villagers' rooftops and collect bundles of firewood from the mountains, carrying them back to the villagers' homes. That day, Cheng Ying was sewing cotton-padded clothes with several elderly women when she suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves approaching. She was overjoyed; could it be supplies being delivered from above? However, when she looked up, she saw an unfamiliar troop.
The group was weary from their journey, their banners embroidered with a symbol she had never seen before. Leading them was a young general who dismounted and approached the group, his eyes revealing determination and courage.
"Is this our base?" the general asked, his voice deep and powerful.
Cheng Ying stood up, looking at him warily. "Yes, who are you people?"
The general smiled slightly. "We are a guerrilla force from the surrounding area. We heard there was a brave team here, so we came specifically to join forces against the Japanese." He extended his hand. "My name is Li Hao. It's a pleasure to meet you."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Ying's heart stirred. The more forces resisting the Japanese, the greater the hope of victory. She grasped Li Hao's hand, smiled, and said, "Welcome! I'll go and fetch our regimental commander right away."
Cheng Ying went to the regimental commander's office to report the matter, and Regimental Commander Wei came out to personally receive the group.
