Sato arrived at Hongkou with shame. The battle was completely annihilated, and he was the only one who came back alive, a blow that was fatal for a man who had always been arrogant.

Sato seems to have come to his senses, but he is still unwilling in his heart, and he has been locked in the house since he went back, and he has not seen anyone.

With a "squeak~", a Japanese-style wooden door was pushed open, and it was Sato's sister Mitsumi who walked in.

At this time, Sato was kneeling at a small wooden table, holding a katana in one hand and wiping it with a white cloth in the other, while the food and drinks on the table had not been touched at all. There was a pot of sake and a cup on the table opposite Sato, and Mitsumi knew that Hasegawa Kiyoshi had just come and said something to Sato.

"Sato, what are you going to do?"

Mitsumi is very worried about her younger brother, Sato has a strong self-esteem, and it is unbearable to suffer such a defeat.

Sato didn't speak, and continued to wipe the sword in his hand, as if there was nothing but the katana in his eyes.

Mitsumi sat in front of Sato, he didn't know what Hasegawa and Sato said, but it would definitely not be good, so he said: "This defeat is nothing at all, as a great samurai, you must be able to afford to let go, defeat is also a kind of tempering the mind." Sato ......"

Only then did Sato speak: "Sister, please don't continue. Rest assured, I'm not the kind of person who can't think of it. This time I lost to Ye Lei again, no big deal. He is indeed very powerful, because he is not an ordinary person, and even said that he does not belong to this world. ”

Mitsumi didn't know much about it, but Sato's expression now was very unusual because he was too calm. However, this calmness is not pretended, it is really very calm.

Mitsumi asked, "What did Hasegawa tell you?" ”

Sato said, "General Hasegawa didn't blame me. This time I disgraced my family, but he gave me another chance, and this opportunity will bring unprecedented honor to our family. ”

These seemingly incomprehensible words made Mitsumi even more worried, and she slapped the table and asked, "What the hell did he say!?" If he puts you in danger, I won't let him go! ”

"Sister, a samurai lives for honor, and it is better to live than to die without honor. General Hasegawa wants me to send Ye Lei back to his own world. If we keep him, our holy war will be lost. So please don't stop me, if I succeed I will receive the highest honor. ”

"You don't need honor, you need to live, live for the Sato family!"

The greater the honor, the greater the danger, and it can be seen that Sato is already determined to die.

Sato put the knife away and said, "I will have a fair duel with Ye Lei, doesn't my sister believe in my swordsmanship?" ”

"Duel? Are you too naïve, Ye Lei will not duel with you. ”

"I still have one last card in my hand, and he's going to duel with me."

Sato bowed his head slightly, and pleased, "Before the duel, please leave China with the snow tree and stay away from this war." Snow Tree is a good girl, she shouldn't be polluted by this dirty war. In the end, don't stay in Japan and go to a neutral country. ”

"Your eyes are full of confusion, I won't tell you to duel." With that, Mitsumi stood up, turned around and said, "I'll go find that fox in Hasegawa right now!" ”

Hasegawa Kiyoshi has begun to doubt Ye Lei's future identity, whether it is true or not, Ye Lei's existence is extremely dangerous to them, so Hasegawa must get rid of this hidden danger at all costs, and Sato is his best pawn. Therefore, it is useless for Guangmei to go.

Sato's war letter to Ye Lei was conveyed by the media, asking Ye Lei to go to the concession and have a fair duel with Sato. One of them is the first samurai of Japan, and the other is the Chinese god of war, and the sensation caused can be imagined.

The Battle of Songhu had reached a critical moment, and this duel even affected the battle. If Ye Lei does not fight, it will have a certain impact on morale, and even affect the people's anti-Japanese enthusiasm. And the other party will also make a big fuss about it and attack mentally. In the eyes of the people, the god of war is invincible and cannot be feared by any challenge.

88th Division Headquarters,

"Joke! Duel thought it was still the Middle Ages? The devil thinks of it! Have the ability to compete on the battlefield! ”

Sun Yuanliang was furious when he got the news, and Zhang Baiting on the side said: "This is a conspiracy of devils, the mainstream media did not report this matter, it seems that the military commander has done a lot of things behind it." However, there are still many media reports in the concession, and the words are sharp, which has caused a very bad social impact. ”

Sun Yuanliang slapped the table vigorously and said angrily: "It's a concession again!" The shame of the existence of the concession could not be washed away one day, and now it is still ......"

"Report!"

At this time, Ye Lei came to the command headquarters.

Sun Yuanliang said: "It's just right. Now the duel is in a big uproar in Shanghai, what do you think, Ye Lei. ”

Ye Lei said: "I decided to accept the other party's challenge. ”

"What!?"

Ye Lei's words shocked Sun Yuanliang: "You're crazy." Your life is for fighting, not risking your life against others! Sato is the first samurai in Japan, you have learned his swordsmanship, and last time it wasn't for your luck, you died under his sword. ”

"Yes. Last time I was slightly injured, Sato was seriously injured, and on the surface I won, but in terms of strength, I lost. But I'm sure I'll win this time. ”

Sun Yuanliang slapped the case again and said: "In the final analysis, you are for your sister, don't think I don't know!" But Ye Lei, your life is more precious than anyone else, don't do stupid things for personal feelings. We have sacrificed hundreds of thousands of people in this battle, don't they have families? Your position is on the battlefield, not the arena. ”

Ye Lei exhaled and said very calmly: "Commander, I'm not stubborn, I'm really confident that I can win." The competition does not necessarily depend on swordsmanship, there are many factors. The important thing is that this competition is not so simple, the other side is fighting psychological warfare, trying to break us spiritually. If I didn't fight, the enemy would make a big fuss, and now the battle has reached a critical moment, and it's the will that fights. "New Bayi Chinese Network debuted m.. com

Sun Yuanliang shook his hand and said: "Then we will fight a public opinion war with them!" This is the land of our Chinese, and we are afraid of losing to them. ”

Ye Lei said: "When have we won the battle of public opinion." Division commander, since the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, I have fallen behind in the war of public opinion, it is clear that they are the aggressors, and justice is on our side, but the enemy has the ability to reverse black and white! Take this battle as an example, the enemy was able to report the battle situation in a timely manner and strive for the initiative. But what about us? It's all tomorrow's yellow flowers. ”

Sun Yuanliang had nothing to say, because it was indeed as Ye Lei said. The responsibility for media propaganda lies with Song Ziwen, but he only cares about his own capital in Shanghai, and takes care of other things.

Ye Lei continued: "I don't deny that part of the reason is for my sister Ye Lulu, but the main thing is that I want to boost morale with victory. Sato is the number one samurai in Japan, and as long as I defeat him, the meaning will be different. "New Bayi Chinese Network debuted s://m: com

Zhang Baiting, the chief of staff on the side, asked: "You leave me the truth, are you sure to defeat Sato?" ”

Ye Lei said to the chief of staff: "I know that the chief of staff often says that I am a war gambler behind my back, but every time I win more and lose less." Chief of Staff, I'm not a gambler. I relied on analysis to make calculations using reconnaissance, objective, subjective, influence and other factors. As long as the probability of victory is more than %50, I am willing to take risks. ”

Zhang Baiting asked, "Then what is your probability this time?" You have to convince us that we will take the same risk with you. ”

Ye Lei said: "%65." Swordsmanship Sato 6, I 4, I lose; Psychological warfare I 6, he 4, he loses. It turned out to be a draw. The concession is our Chinese land, and I occupy the people; Sato has been defeated by me many times, and mentally I have won against him. Another point is that in addition to swordsmanship, there are also tactics in duels, and I am confident that I can beat him in this regard. These three points add up to 15 percentage points for me to beat him. Although my life is more expensive than Sato Kim, as long as I can win, it will help the whole battle. ”

The battle has been fought to this point, and although the two sides are now at a stalemate, it will soon be broken. Another main division of the Japanese army is rushing to reinforce from the North China battlefield, and the Gui army is about to enter the battle.

Sun Yuanliang didn't want Ye Lei to duel in his heart, it can be seen that he has made up his mind and is confident that he can defeat Sato, so he decided to let Ye Lei and Sato duel in the concession in desperation. The duel was fair, but no one knew what Hasegawa Kiyoshi was doing behind his back.
