After she became the daughter of a vicious warlord, she cleaned herself up

Chapter 163 Rest Time

Wei Yuqing pushed up the black-framed glasses on her nose and continued to ask, "So, may I ask, what do you think of this defense battle?"

At this moment, Xie Jinyuan's voice was sonorous and powerful.

"This is a battle to protect the country's reputation and to enhance the confidence of the entire nation in resisting the Japanese invaders!"

"We, the 524th Regiment, are determined to fight to the death for our country and vow to live and die with the Sihang Warehouse!"

Wei Yuqing nodded, and then pointed the camera at the tall but pale-faced young officer Jiang Shijia beside her.

"Captain Jiang, may I ask why you gave up the opportunity to evacuate Shanghai with the main force and came to the Sihang Warehouse alone to hold the fort?"

Jiang Shijia's handsome and tough eyes were filled with a determination to face death.

"Dying on the battlefield is the most glorious destination for a soldier!"

“So I must stick to it to the end and live up to the Party and the country!”

Wei Yuqing was deeply shocked. She looked at the bloodstained faces but determined eyes passing by her, and believed that victory would eventually belong to us.

Chen Qingyan, who had taken a minor in communications at Hans University, also took the time to help connect the telephone lines and restore communications between the Sihang Warehouse and the outside world.

"Reporting to the commander, this is the Sihang Warehouse, I am Xie Jinyuan!"

"We have successfully repelled the Japanese pirates' attack today!"

"Now requesting instructions from the Master!"

On the other end of the line came the voice of Sun Yuanliang, commander of the 88th Division, "Well done! You all in the 524th Regiment are great!"

"The people of the whole country and representatives of various forces around the world are paying close attention to the Battle of Sihang Warehouse!"

"Please hold your ground and wait for my next instruction!"

"Yes!" Xie Jinyuan saluted into the phone and said with a firm face.

The Sihang Warehouse was filled with the smell of gunpowder and blood, which was so depressing that it made people feel breathless.

After cleaning up the battlefield and reinforcing the fortifications, the soldiers were finally able to take a brief rest.

"Brothers, let's take a break and eat something!"

Xie Jinyuan's loud voice echoed in the warehouse. Although it carried a hint of fatigue, it could not conceal the determination in his heart.

The soldiers then realized that they had been fighting continuously for nearly ten hours without eating or drinking, from the first gunshot in the early morning until now.

"Old Yang, take out all our 'treasures'!" Xie Jinyuan waved at Yang Ruifu.

Yang Ruifu chuckled and lifted a large piece of tarpaulin, revealing several large wooden boxes filled with compressed biscuits and canned luncheon meat.

"Hey, I didn't expect there was such a valuable commodity as luncheon meat in the warehouse!"

"Yes, it seems that the conditions here are much better than we imagined. We will definitely be able to defend the Sihang Warehouse!"

The soldiers were talking in a flurry, with long-lost smiles on their faces.

Jiang Shiyuan and Chen Qingyan also stopped their work, their faces covered in sweat and blood, but it still couldn't conceal their beauty and tenacity.

"Ayuan, please eat something quickly." Chen Qingyan handed Jiang Shiyuan a piece of compressed biscuit and said with concern.

"Well, you eat too." Jiang Shiyuan took the biscuit, took a light bite, and a dry taste spread on the tip of his tongue.

"This biscuit is so disgusting, tasteless and choking..." Chen Qingyan frowned and complained in a low voice in her ear.

"Haha, it's good to have something to eat. It's better than going hungry." Jiang Shiyuan smiled and comforted her softly.

"That's right..." Chen Qingyan nodded and continued to nibble on the biscuit in his hand.

At this time, Wei Yuqing brought three boxes of canned luncheon meat to the three of them.

The three girls were chatting and laughing in the corner while sharing the luncheon meat, and they finally felt some taste in their mouths.

Jiang Shijia, who had just coughed up a pool of blood while hiding aside, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, took the can of luncheon meat that he had been allocated, and stuffed it into Jiang Shiyuan's hand without saying a word.

"Little sister, I'll give you my portion as well. You've worked hard today!" Jiang Shijia leaned over and rubbed the top of Jiang Shiyuan's head with a doting look on his face.

Jiang Shiyuan decisively refused, "No, brother, look at how skinny you are, you should eat more meat!"

As he spoke, Jiang Shiyuan stuffed the half can of luncheon meat that he had deliberately left in his hand back into his brother's hands.

"Brother, just sit next to us and eat. The three of us will supervise you while you eat!"

Jiang Shijia knew his sister's temper and smiled helplessly.

He had no choice but to eat half a can of luncheon meat under the fixed gazes of the three girls.

Fang Lansheng and Lao Huang were busy helping the soldiers fetch water from the Suzhou River from the culvert, setting up a fire and boiling the water for drinking.

"Come on, come on, everyone have a drink of hot water!" Old Huang held a large teapot and poured water for the soldiers one by one.

The soldiers took the teacups, gulped down the hot water, and felt warmed all over.

After Fang Lansheng and Lao Huang finished their meal, Xie Jinyuan couldn't help but suggest, "I've heard that Boss Fang is a famous Peking Opera actor in Shanghai, and that he learned from Master Mei. Why don't you perform a piece for us today to cheer us up!"

"Yes, Boss Fang, please perform a piece for us!" The other soldiers also echoed.

Fang Lansheng smiled, dusted off his windbreaker, and walked steadily to the open space on the third floor platform.

He looked around and saw the soldiers sitting around him, their eyes filled with eager anticipation.

Fang Lansheng took a deep breath and got into position. It was the first time in his life that he sang the role of a martial artist in front of so many people.

"The driver and I hurried forward, and I alone defeated Cao Man on horseback!"

"Urge your horse and whip it forward, and look around for the mistress."

"Destroying layer after layer, Zhao Yun's spirit is doubled."

……

"I, Zhao Yun, am full of vigor and power. I kill my enemies in all directions, as if I were in an empty space."

"He showed his might with his spirit, and performed great deeds with his spear and sword. He saved the young master on the spot today. Who doesn't know the famous Zhao Zilong?"

Fang Lansheng's voice was high-pitched, passionate and powerful, making people feel as if they were on a battlefield.

The soldiers listened with fascination, as if they saw Zhao Zilong on a white horse with a silver spear, going in and out of the enemy's army seven times, killing them in chaos, yet managing to escape unscathed every time.

"it is good!"

"One more!"

"Boss Fang is indeed a famous Peking Opera actor!"

"I feel like Boss Fang's Wusheng singing is just as good as Qingyi's!"

The soldiers couldn't help but sigh and burst into thunderous applause and cheers.

Fang Lansheng smiled slightly. His performance of "Changbanpo" not only boosted the morale of the soldiers, but also boosted his own morale.

He believed that they would be able to fight bravely and be invincible like Zhao Zilong!

After a short rest, the soldiers returned to their respective posts.

Their eyes are more determined and their fighting spirit is higher.

They are always ready to fight for their country, for their nation and for their dignity!
