Espionage: I became sworn brothers with Zheng Yaoxian at the beginning, and became the Seventh Broth

Chapter 1062 Fighting with All Our Might

Recalling the memories of his past life, Ye Shaohong almost burst into tears.

He knew...

The situation at the front has evolved to this point and cannot be changed.

Even if he exerted all his strength and mobilized every available force, being thousands of miles apart meant that distant water could not quench a nearby fire.

Putting down the original telegram in his hand, Ye Shaohong hurriedly got up and rushed out of the office.

They went to the communications room of the Military Intelligence Bureau headquarters.

He personally drafted encrypted telegrams and sent them to all Military Intelligence Bureau stations in the cities near the Xiang River, where General Zhang's remnants were located. He issued a strict order that they must investigate the current situation of General Zhang's troops as soon as possible, at all costs.

Send the message back to headquarters as soon as possible.

During this time, Ye Shaohong was also praying secretly.

They prayed that his arrival, this time traveler, would be like a butterfly flapping its wings, changing General Zhang's predetermined fate.

But the result was destined to be disappointing.

As evening approached, an urgent encrypted telegram was sent back to the mountain city.

It was delivered to Ye Shaohong.

General Zhang died in battle.

His death was tragic and heroic.

Faced with the encirclement of nearly 6,000 Japanese soldiers, General Zhang, with only a hundred or so remaining men, led his troops in a final charge against the Japanese.

Wielding a long sword, he employed the swordsmanship of the 7th Army's broadsword squad, and despite being over fifty years old and severely wounded, he killed seven Japanese soldiers.

In the end, he was struck on the temple with the butt of a rifle by a Japanese soldier and lost consciousness.

When General Zhang was wounded and unconscious, the Japanese soldiers, armed with rifles and bayonets, tried to kill him.

But what the Japanese soldier saw was General Zhang's eyes, still wide open in anger, even as he fainted.

It was that burning fighting spirit, that cold, piercing gaze.

I only glanced at it.

The Japanese soldier who was about to kill General Zhang was terrified.

He collapsed to the ground.

The commotion he caused also woke General Zhang from his coma.

Upon regaining consciousness, General Zhang did not hesitate for a moment and once again launched a desperate charge against the Japanese invaders.

This time, however, the Japanese soldiers no longer engaged General Zhang in bayonet fighting.

They have lost all courage.

They even forgot about the damned Bushido spirit.

The shameless Japanese devils opened fire directly on General Zhang, who was brandishing a broadsword.

It wasn't just one or two guns.

Instead, there were more than a dozen guns.

There was even a machine gun.

A bullet struck General Zhang between the eyebrows, and this iron-blooded war god of the Chinese people during the Republic of China era sacrificed himself on the road of charging forward.

After General Zhang's sacrifice, the Japanese soldiers who were besieging him fell silent.

Almost everyone stared blankly at that tough man. For several breaths, not a single person uttered a word.

At last.

It was the commander of the Japanese army who stepped forward.

He walked up to General Zhang.

That damned beast sincerely praised General Zhang as an iron-blooded war god.

He immediately took off his military cap.

He saluted General Zhang.

Then all the remaining Japanese soldiers from this battle laid down their rifles and took off their hats in salute.

The mountains and rivers grieve together.

A man of iron will, the strongest man on the land of China, finally used his life to wash away the stains on his body that others had framed him for.

How tragic. That man who once galloped across the Great Wall at Xifengkou will never stand up again.

The news of General Zhang's assassination reached the headquarters of the Military Intelligence Bureau and also reached the ears of the bald-headed Chairman.

This time, the bald-headed chairman finally made a wise decision.

He ordered the soldiers at the front to spare no effort to retrieve General Zhang's body.

at the same time.

Ye Shaohong also issued the same order to the Military Intelligence Bureau stations near Xiangshui (Hanshui).

In order to safely retrieve General Zhang's body and send it back to the mountain city.

This was the last thing Ye Shaohong could do for General Zhang.

He felt very guilty. According to the ancient traditions of China, Ye Shaohong should have allowed General Zhang's soul to return to his hometown and be buried there.

But he can't do it.

General Zhang's hometown, Linqing in Shandong Province, is still occupied by the Japanese.

They have the will but lack the power.

In the end, General Zhang could only be buried in the mountain city.

May General Zhang's spirit rest in peace on this land he loved so dearly.

The green hills are fortunate to bury the ancient times. It is believed that the Chinese people on this mountain city, and future generations, will remember General Zhang's great achievements.

Remember his patriotism.

As time passed, the story of General Zhang's heroic sacrifice gradually spread among the people through various channels.

Countless people wept because of this.

There were many, many more people who had slandered and cursed General Zhang, and they slapped themselves until their cheeks were swollen.

They were filled with remorse and had no face to face.

Subsequently.

It is a stronger public opinion.

Countless people sent messages and wrote letters to the Nationalist government, demanding that the government bring back General Zhang's spirit.

This time, the Nationalist government did not disappoint the people.

General Zhang's scattered remnants, more than a hundred Nationalist soldiers, led by a division commander, launched a desperate charge against the Japanese invaders.

After making enormous sacrifices, they finally managed to retrieve General Zhang's spirit.

Simultaneously.

Military intelligence personnel from various cities along the Xiang River also went to escort General Zhang on his final journey, following Ye Shaohong's orders.

They traveled along the way. Knowing that they had arrived at the path of General Zhang's spirit, the sons and daughters of China in the cities and villages along the route knelt down on both sides of the road to see him off.

The total number of people exceeds one million.

Some people even went so far as to steam buns at home using white flour, which was extremely rare at the time.

When General Zhang's spirit passed by, they held it high above their heads and bid him farewell with tears in their eyes.

They said that General Zhang was a man of the North.

On his final journey, he should be allowed to eat a bite of food from his hometown.

These are all true stories.

The news reached back to the mountain city and into Ye Shaohong's ears, bringing tears to his eyes.

Unable to control the surging emotions within me.

On May 28, 1940, General Zhang's coffin arrived at the Chaotianmen Wharf in Chongqing. The bald-headed Chairman, General Feng, and other important military and political figures from Chongqing came to the wharf to receive the coffin.

More than 100,000 people from the mountain city spontaneously came to the scene.

Let's see General Zhang off on his final journey together.

is the day.

Japanese bomber planes also flew over the mountain city in broad daylight.

Faced with the threat of bombing by Japanese planes, the more than 100,000 people of the mountain city did not flee at the sound of the bombing as they had done in the past.

They stood on both sides of the road with unwavering resolve, watching General Zhang's coffin slowly pass by.

The cry was loud.

This belief, this feeling of shared hatred for the enemy, seemed to have transformed from something intangible into a tangible will.

Soaring straight into the sky and clouds.

Finally, the Japanese bombers circled the mountain city three times, but in the end, they didn't dare drop a single bomb.

The first time, they turned back immediately.

This is absolutely a rare event in the history of human warfare.

It deserves to be remembered by history.

General Zhang's patriotic beliefs and the people of the mountain city's grief and anger instilled boundless fear in the Japanese invaders.

After a grand farewell ceremony, General Zhang's spirit was buried at the foot of Yutai Mountain.

Later, General Feng changed the city to Meihua Mountain.

Seven days later.

Another piece of bad news arrived.

After General Zhang's burial, his wife went on a hunger strike to show her resolve and eventually followed him in death.

The news brought grief to the entire nation once again.

On the same day, Ye Shaohong, with red eyes, sent a resolute order to the Jellyfish Assassination Group, Chi Tiecheng's unit, located far away in Jinling City.

Revenge! Revenge!

At all costs, regardless of time or place, the Japanese executioners who harmed General Zhang must pay the price they deserve.

Even if it means temporarily abandoning the assassination of Wang Ni, allowing that bastard Wang Ni to live a little longer by sheer luck.

Even if we are lucky enough to get a breather, we must complete this task.

Chi Tiecheng, Su Wenqian, and the members of the Jellyfish Assassination Group, who were far away in Jinling City, had no objections to this order.

They accepted the task without hesitation.

And they immediately launched an operation...
