He Daqing, do you know how I've lived these past years?

As the sky grew darker, pedestrians hurried along the road.

The cold sea breeze kept blowing through Leyou's long hair.

It also soothed his restless heart and furrowed brow.

"Um"

Suddenly, a thick killing intent rushed towards Leyou.

Feeling a slight chill on her neck, Leyou quickly leaned back and took a few steps back.

What came into view was a man in black carrying a samurai sword and whose face was half-covered.

Leyou touched her slightly sore neck, and the fingers she touched were stained with blood.

"Ninja?"

The man in black didn't say a word, but drew his katana from his back and slashed at Le You.

Leyou hurriedly drew his pistol and began shooting at the man.

"bang bang bang"

The man in black quickly formed hand seals.

After a puff of white smoke, a piece of wood fell out, and suddenly a man in black appeared behind Leyou, gripping a samurai sword tightly and slashing down fiercely.

The enhanced muscle reflexes allowed Leyou to dodge quickly, but it wasn't enough to withstand the sudden close-range attack.

With the sound of clothes tearing, a streak of crimson blood appeared on the blade of the black-clad man's samurai sword.

Le You pulled out his belt and said to the man in black:

"Is this some kind of Qimen Dunjia?"

"Baka! This is ninjutsu from our Sakura Country!"

After the ninja finished speaking, he threw several shuriken at Leyou.

Leyou hurriedly tore off his clothes and caught it in a circular motion.

However, just as he lowered his hand, he saw a samurai sword thrusting towards his heart.

Leyou quickly swung the belt from left to right with his right hand, while simultaneously throwing his left fist at the ninja's head.

Another puff of white smoke appeared, and the right fist struck a scarecrow.

"Holy crap, this is amazing!"

Leyou quickly grabbed the end of the belt with his left hand and swung it forcefully behind him.

"when"

The belt buckle and the samurai sword formed a perfect parry.

Leyou loosened his belt and quickly moved closer to the ninja.

Seeing this, the ninja hurriedly retreated, but Yueyou grabbed his clothes and pulled him away.

A punch was delivered to his head.

"what,"

With a scream, the ninja opened his mouth and spat out a needle.

Left with no other option, he turned to dodge, and in the process, tore off the ninja hood.

"Your beard is quite unique; it only has hair in the middle."

"Baka!"

Just as the opposing ninja was about to attack again, a "chirping" sound came from afar.

The sound of birdsong was followed by a large number of footsteps.

"Hmph, you're lucky this time. Next time I'll definitely kill you to avenge our young master."

Even if I die, our sect will not let you go, and we will also send people to wipe out your Kowloon Walled City.

The ninja tossed a few more round balls onto the ground. After a puff of white smoke, he vanished without a trace.

"It's not that spiritual energy is scarce; this ninjutsu is still quite something."

A moment later, a large number of armed soldiers ran over, saw the shirtless Le You, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask:

"Sir, are you alright?"

Leyou nodded and said, "It's nothing, you guys go back. We just encountered a rat."

The leading soldier hesitated for a moment before nodding and saying:

"It's the officer."

He then led a group of soldiers back.

"You've only learned a tiny fraction of what our ancestors taught us, yet you dare to threaten me so arrogantly? I'll definitely wipe out your entire school of thought when I get the chance."

Picking up his torn clothes, Leyou lit a cigarette and slowly walked towards the camp.

……

"Sir, you're back."

The cavalry company commander quickly jumped off his horse and shouted to Leyou.

Leyou nodded and asked:

"Um, what's your name?"

"Sir, my name is Jiang You."

"Oh, you even share the same character as me. From now on, you'll be part of my guard company. Pass the word down and get everything ready. We'll depart for Yunnan tomorrow morning."

"Yes, sir"

Leyou waved and walked towards her room.

"Brother Leyou, come and have a drink!"

Just as I reached the door, someone at the end of the corridor called out to me.

Upon closer inspection, I realized it was a group leader who had helped me before, so I went over to him.

Good heavens, the room was packed with people, all the buddies I met when we went shopping before.

Haha, surprised, aren't you?

"Come here quickly, you're the only one left!"

Leyou hurriedly went over, took out cigarettes from his pocket, and handed one to each person.

"What happened to you? Your clothes are so torn."

These are knife marks. Was he attacked?

Several officers nearby asked with concern,

"It's nothing, just a little mouse. I'll definitely kill it next time it comes."

"Haha, Butcher Leyou, so cool! Enough said, let's drink!"

"Yes, yes, I specifically bought a lot of cooked dishes,"

A group of people sat down on the ground, each holding a bottle of liquor, and began drinking together.

Just as things were getting better, one of the regimental commanders suddenly started crying.

"I thought we could recapture Hongxianglu Port this time, but unexpectedly we're heading north instead."

"Yes, I don't want to leave, but orders from the army are paramount."

"I heard that the People's Party has stationed tens of thousands of troops in Northeast China."

"Why don't we just wipe out the 10,000 British soldiers here before heading north? Otherwise, I'm really heartbroken."

"These are the people of my Great Xia, yet they are still being managed, oppressed, and exploited by foreigners."

Think back to when we first arrived, how welcoming and happy they were, and now we're going to abandon them.”

"Hey"

……

The surrounding group leaders also sighed, picked up their bottles, and downed them in one gulp.

"That's all. Soldiers must obey orders."

As you've seen, those American soldiers are utterly pathetic. When we return from the north, we'll take Hongxianglu Port again. I think General Zhang feels the same way.”

"Yeah, brothers."

"I don't want to think about it anymore. When we come back, if any of us survive this time, we must retake Hongxianglu Port."

"Okay, that's our agreement."

"A Man's Promise"

More than twenty group leaders, including Leyou, clashed their fists together and burst into laughter.

"Guard, guard, go and bring some more wine."

A moment later, several soldiers brought in several cases of foreign liquor.

The group leader on the outer side had them take a few dishes out and then closed the door.

"Let's continue drinking."

"Tonight, let's drink until we're completely drunk!"

This is also our farewell to Brother Leyou.

It was also Brother Leyou who saw us off.

"Let's have a proper drink together sometime in the future."

……

The next morning,

Leyou shook his dizzy head and got up from the ground.

Looking at his brothers lying on the ground beside him, he couldn't help but laugh.

All good things must come to an end. Goodbye.

After Leyou got up from the ground, he opened the door and saw more than twenty soldiers standing there.

Jiang You was also there. He quickly ran up to help Le You and led her towards a room not far away.

Other soldiers also entered the room one after another to wake up their commander.

Back in her room, Le You had just washed her face and changed her clothes. She glanced at the time, then suddenly remembered something and said to Jiang You, who was carrying breakfast in, "..."

"Jiang You, go do me a favor. We'll set off after you return."

"Yes, sir."

Leyou pretended to walk to the wardrobe, took out 43 watches, wrapped them in a cloth, and said:

"Send this to Zan Pangui at Kowloon Walled City, and give one piece to Leopard Qiang. He'll know."

Jiang You took the bundle, hesitated for a moment, and asked:

"Sir, may I ask how much you paid for this watch? I have one too, but it's different."

Le You also looked at Jiang You strangely and asked:

"Buying this according to your military pay is a bit tight."

Jiang You nodded and said:

"Yes, I'm going to wear it when I get married."

I originally wanted to buy the same thing as you, but the shopkeeper helped me wrap it up and charged me a lot less.

"When I got back, I found that the watch I bought was different from the one I ordered. When I went back to ask the shopkeeper,..."

He said that the money I paid was only enough to buy this watch, and that the watch was genuine, and that I was being unreasonable.

I told the shopkeeper I was buying a foreign watch, not a Huangjietan watch, and he immediately kicked me out.

After listening, Leyou narrowed his eyes and said:

"You didn't smash up his shop, so isn't this just a case of false advertising?"

Jiang You stammered and said:

"The watch he sold me was genuine, and he was from the United States; there were police officers with him."

Leyou hurled a large sinus at him.

"You sent someone to deliver the watch, now you take a battalion and go there to smash up his shop. If it's a detached house, kick the people out and burn it down."

If anyone asks you, just say it was me, Leyou, who said it. If they still don't listen, then deal with them right here and now.

"It's the officer."

Jiang You saluted and politely ran out.

"Damn, what a shrewd businessman, no wonder he's got so much money."

Leyou spat towards the door and slowly walked to the table to eat his morning tea.
