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

Today is September 18th.

93 years ago, on this day in 1931

Under the arrangement of the Japanese Kwantung Army, the railway "guard unit" blew up the South Manchurian Railway tracks built by the Japanese near Liutiaohu, Shenyang, and framed the Chinese army for the crime.

Using this as a pretext, the Japanese army bombarded Beidaying Barracks in Shenyang.

A full-scale invasion was launched.

For a full 14 years, most of China was trampled under the iron heel of the Japanese army.

More than 930 cities fell.

More than 3500 million compatriots were injured or killed.

4200 million refugees are homeless

Readers from Northeast China should know that song.

"On the Songhua River"

"Woo~"

"Dangdangdangdang"

As the sirens wail, gentlemen, please bow your heads, close your eyes, and observe three minutes of silence.

In remembrance of revolutionary martyrs, and to carry on their legacy.

Inheriting the revolutionary spirit and cultivating patriotism

……

Here's a little tidbit for you gentlemen: we can start counting from the First Sino-Japanese War of 1894.

……

Slowly pushing open the door, the doctor looked around to make sure no one was there before carefully looking at Leyou lying on the bed.

I immediately recalled the wounds and bullet holes I had seen when I bandaged his wounds, and I also remembered what the nurses had told me.

The doctor sighed and sat down beside Leyou's bed.

"Originally, I wanted to kill you to protect my family's lives."

But you are an upright soldier, a soldier who defends his country, dedicates himself to the cause, and is willing to die for the people.

I cannot bear to kill you, but this is an unsolvable problem. However, if I die, perhaps my family will be safer.

After the doctor finished speaking, he took out a syringe from his pocket and injected it into his neck.

At that moment, the doctor's hand was grabbed by a hand as withered as tree bark.

The doctor turned around and found that it was the old Taoist priest who had been by Leyou's side all along. When he looked down, he realized that Leyou on the bed had opened her eyes and was looking at him with a complicated expression.

Knowing he had been exposed, the doctor plopped down on a bench, lowered his head, and before being asked anything, recounted the whole story.

"Whether you arrest me and take me to the city defense, or kill me now, it doesn't matter. I can't control what happens after that."

After the doctor finished speaking, he lowered his head and remained silent.

"What do you think, you fool?"

“Master, I forgave him when he committed suicide. Besides, he didn’t do anything to wrong me. The root of all this is that special envoy.”

“I am very pleased that you can understand things. People like that special envoy will commit heinous crimes once they gain power. There is no right or wrong, only whether they are willing or not.”

Lying in bed, Leyou seemed to remember something. He asked the doctor for the special envoy's name, and then slowly took out the piece of paper that Commander Qiancheng had given him.

Good guy!

The special envoy's name was prominently displayed on the list. Looking at the other unfamiliar names and the familiar positions behind them, my heart suddenly felt as cold as the dead of winter.

This is a huge scapegoat. It involved more than 30 people, from provincial-level officials to regimental-level officers and secretaries, including a corps commander. No wonder the quartermaster was so arrogant back then.

While hesitating, Leyou suddenly remembered Commander Qiancheng's words, and slowly her confused eyes became sharper and more determined.

Upon noticing the change in Leyou's eyes, the master couldn't help but smile and stroke his beard.

Leyou slowly moved his limbs, feeling the pain in his chest and legs, before finally giving up and lying on the bed, saying to the doctor:

"You pretended to inject me with the drug. Then you went to him that night and told him it had worked."

The poisoning has already begun and it will take two days to take effect. I will have Commander Cheng send people to secretly protect your family.”

The doctor had no choice but to do as Leyou suggested.

With the doctor coming out, the master took out a few small black fruits, popped them, and kept wiping Leyou's lips with them.

"Don't lick it. Your lips are purple right now. I'm going with the doctor to get checked out. We'll talk more when I get back."

After the master finished speaking, he went out and called Jingxian to take care of him.

After a while, the master returned, nodded to Leyou, and then sat down to meditate.

Jingxian kept wiping the dirt off Leyou's body, while Mulan, Huangying, and the others stared intently at the medicine pot on the stove.

That evening, the doctor brought a soldier to check on Leyou's condition.

The soldier, without saying much, took the doctor and left as soon as he saw Leyou's lips.

Watching the two leave, Leyou opened his eyes, smiled, and nodded to his master.

Two quiet days passed like this, and Leyou kept trying to get out of bed and walk. It has to be said that the physical strengthening is really something else, and the recovery is very good.

That evening, Leyou waited for the doctor and soldiers to arrive, his mouth full of chicken blood that his master had brought him, which was full of a fishy smell.

Upon hearing the door open, Leyou quickly opened his mouth a crack, and chicken blood flowed out, covering the pillow.

Having been instructed to do so, Jingxian immediately cried and pulled the doctor over, urging him to examine her quickly. She kept asking for the reason and repeatedly held up a finger, saying that this was how it happened in just one day.

The doctor, understanding the unspoken message, lifted Le You's eyelids and checked his breathing, saying:

"The situation is a bit complicated; it's probably a bacterial infection. I'll go get some medicine."

Then he nodded to the soldier and walked out the door.

"The medicine is working; it should take effect by tomorrow night at the latest. Even a miracle worker couldn't save him now."

"Good! You did a great job. Come back with me to report. Your superior will not treat you unfairly."

Jingxian watched the two of them walk far away before immediately returning to help Leyou rinse his mouth and change his pillow.

Leyou also began to walk slowly, waving his arms.

The next evening arrived quickly, and it was just getting dark.

Leyou then asked his master for the address of the special envoy, and dressed in a soldier's uniform, slowly walked out of the medical station toward his destination.

Looking at the brightly lit courtyard, Leyou slowly walked towards the large tree in the shadows.

Looking around and finding no one, he climbed up and carefully observed the scene in the yard.

Just then, the doctor and the soldier came out of the courtyard. Leyou slowly climbed down the tree and followed behind them.

In the shadows around a corner, Leyou swiftly drew a samurai sword, covered the soldier's mouth, and slashed at his neck.

The doctor next to him was so frightened that he fell to the ground. Just as he was about to shout for help, he heard Leyou's deep, hoarse voice.

"it's me"

The doctor, having finally seen Leyou's face clearly, breathed a sigh of relief, stood up shakily, and asked:

"That shouldn't be the case. It takes a hundred days to recover from a broken bone, how come you can get out of bed and walk in just a few days?"

"Don't ask so many questions. If anyone asks tomorrow, just say I can't get up yet. Take me back to the courtyard first, and I'll go find that special envoy."

Leyou spoke to the doctor while holding the soldier's submachine gun and grenade.

Despite his trembling legs, the doctor led Leyou to the special envoy.

Just as the doctor turned back after closing the door, he discovered that Leyou had already severed the special envoy's head with a single blow.

I immediately braced myself on the wooden table beside me, and an unknown liquid appeared at my feet. A surge of emotion welled up inside me.

"What a ruthless person! They killed without saying a word, and even beheaded me! It scared me to death!"

Leyou sat wearily in his office chair, lit a cigarette, and kept rummaging through the drawers.

Looking at the Mauser pistol and two large yellow croakers in front of me, I couldn't help but think of the names and positions on the list.

"Big brother, come here."

As the doctor staggered over, Leyou quickly put the large yellow croaker into her spatial storage.

He took out four small yellow croakers and placed them on the table, then picked up his Mauser pistol, released the safety, and said:

"Consider these four as your resettlement fee. Now, I'll name someone, and you take me to their house. Just wait at the door; don't worry about anything else."

"Sir, you underestimate me. Although I am afraid of death, I am still a loyal and righteous man. What do you say?"

When the doctor picked up the small yellow croaker again, his legs stopped shaking and he even started talking.

"Sir, let me tell you, don't underestimate me just because I'm a doctor. I've treated all the high-ranking officials and nobles in the city."

After receiving the name, the doctor led the way, but worried that Leyou's body couldn't handle it.

They even thoughtfully rode a bicycle from somewhere and took Leyou around for a ride.

Soon, Leyou went to the place where the owner of the name in this county was located on the list.

In the quiet night, sounds kept coming from many courtyards.

"Ahhhhhh"

Looking at the list in his hand, he saw that, apart from those in the military, most of the issues had been resolved.

But things were different in the military base. Suddenly, a burst of playful banter and a woman's coquettish voice came from the other end of the line.

The sudden noise startled the doctor, who was already on edge, and he panicked. Luckily, Leyou, who was sitting in the back seat, managed to keep his feet on the ground and his hands on the ground to prevent him from falling.

The two quietly got out of the car and looked towards the street corner.

A burly man in military uniform and leather boots walked out of a restaurant, groping a woman in a cheongsam in each arm and laughing loudly. Six soldiers carrying guns followed behind him.

"Who is this guy?"

Upon receiving the doctor's answer, Leyou immediately remembered the name of a group leader on the list.

"Fine, you've got the path to heaven but refuse to take it, you've got the gates to hell but insist on walking through them."

He told the doctor to turn back and ride his bike to the medical center, saying he would arrive shortly, and then slowly walked towards the big man with his Mauser pistol.

As the distance drew closer, Le You pulled down the clothes he had taken from his head and decisively raised his pistol, aiming it at the burly man.

"bang bang bang"

A few shots,

With two screams, Leyou quickly turned around and ran in the direction the doctor was riding his bicycle.

The six soldiers didn't react at first, and when they came to their senses, they quickly took out their guns from behind and fired several shots in the direction Le You was running away.

The doctor, who was riding his bicycle, suddenly felt a jolt on the back seat and knew that Leyou had arrived. He also knew what had happened from the gunshot he had just heard, but he didn't say anything and kept his head down, pedaling hard.

"Go back now. You haven't seen me today, and I'm bedridden."

Leyou looked at the doctor and said coldly.

"Sir, I understand."

Seeing the doctor about to turn away, Leyou took out two small yellow croakers from his spatial storage and whispered:

"The growth officer is one of us. I hope you won't make a mistake. Consider this hush money. You can leave now."

After saying that, he turned and went back into the room, while the doctor silently watched Leyou's retreating figure and murmured:

"I thought you were a ruthless and decisive leader, but you let a small fish like me go. A benevolent bear indeed? The party won't be lonely anymore."

The doctor also turned and left.

Looking at his master inside the room, Leyou bowed his head, called out once, and then lay down on the bed without moving. He was really exhausted tonight.

"Why don't you kill him? What if he betrays you?"

"He had the opportunity to kill me before, but he didn't; instead, he committed suicide."

I will be good to those who are good to me, and I will repay those who are bad to me tenfold.

"Just like the people on the list, even if I don't know them, because of this special envoy incident, I won't let any of them get away with it, even ten or twenty years later."

"Let's leave tomorrow. We made too much noise today, so let's get some rest."

"Okay, Master, goodnight."

As his master closed the door, Leyou couldn't help but think of his past self.

Those who remain indifferent to others' affairs will find themselves at the mercy of others when trouble comes their way; resistance will only result in retaliation with interest.

Only by becoming stronger can you be fearless.

Leyou stroked the submachine gun he had taken out of his spatial storage with a smile.

Men must be fierce! Especially when the country is in peril, traitors are everywhere, and enemies are causing chaos.
