Shundi Temple, the headquarters of the Saito detachment, Major General Saito sat in the headquarters, the sun was shining outside, but his heart was cold.

More than half of the Iizuka Brigade and the Ohno Brigade were killed or wounded, the Yoshida Wing Headquarters and the Kawashima Brigade were all wiped out, and only the Shiraishi Brigade of the four infantry brigades of the Saito Detachment was fully organized! It turned out that the Chinese army still couldn't be provoked......

"Jingle Bell ......"

The phone rang, and Major General Saito was shocked, and slowly relieved the phone.

"Saito-kun," Unsurprisingly, Lieutenant General Sakagaki's voice rang on the other end of the phone.

"Hi," Rear Admiral Saito stood up suddenly, "Your Excellency Division Commander." ”

"The war in Linyi is tight," Lieutenant General Sakagaki's voice was unhurried, without the slightest fireworks, "You must understand that the only way for soldiers who cannot complete the strategic plan is to be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor......

"Hey," Major General Saito's heart trembled, and his voice trembled slightly, "Saito detachment...... We will never discredit the Hiroshima Division! ”

"Hmm," Lieutenant General Sakagaki said in a calm tone, speaking slowly, "The battle of Linyi cannot afford to be lost. ”

"Hey," Major General Saito hung up the phone gently, unconsciously wiping the beads of sweat from his forehead, the sesame seeds were not picked up, he was stung in his hand, and he could no longer lose even the watermelon, otherwise, he would have only one way to be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor...... Disembowel!

Li Siwei was yellowed on his back, bumping, bumping, slowly closing his eyes, he seemed to have fallen into a huge whirlpool, falling deeper and deeper, deeper and deeper...... When he landed on the ground, it was pitch black...... He shook his dazed head, and faintly heard some noises......

"Commander......"

"Li Cannon......"

"Li Siwei ......"

"Captain Li......"

"General Lee......"

Those voices were familiar or unfamiliar, but they all made his heart ache.

There was also a woman's "huh" cry in the darkness, "You said it...... You can't die...... You said ......", the voice made his heart tremble.

Is that...... Ning Rou's voice, she must be very worried, very scared! Li Siwei was in a hurry, he rushed left and right in the dark, opened his mouth and shouted, but found that he ...... I can't shout it myself!

He was even more anxious, running and running as hard as he could...... The darkness is boundless...... There is not a glimmer of light in sight...... He was still running, trying to break out of the darkness, but suddenly he fell to the ground.

"Ah......h......h This damn darkness, this damn darkness! He struggled to his feet, flapping and tearing through the void with his waving hands...... He will tear this darkness apart!

"Woo...... You said it...... You are...... Can't die...... Li Cannon...... ...... you've said."

The mournful cry rang out again...... Li Siwei was shocked, and shouted in his heart, "Girl, don't be afraid, don't be afraid...... I'll go back right away, I'll go back right away......"

He ran again in the direction from which the voice had come...... Ahead, there is still boundless darkness...... He sprinted as hard as he could, running faster and faster...... The wind blew in his face like a cold blade, tearing at his clothes......

"You said that...... Woohoo......"

The voice rang out again, as if it was in his ears, and as if in the bottom of his heart...... "Ah......" He sprinted forward with the last of his strength...... But he still fell to the ground weakly, and at this moment, he was desperate...... Am I dead? I'm dead...... He slumped to the ground, the ground cold to the bone!

I don't know how long it took, but the familiar song sounded in his ears again......

"China will not die, China will not die......"

The song was majestic and desolate, with a hint of sadness, but it was a clear spring that flowed into his body, turning into a trace of strength and gathering in his body.

"China will not die, China will not die!" A voice lingered in his head, "I can't die, I can't die, I gave my brothers hope, how can I let them down?" I gave her a promise, how could I make her despair? ”

"Ahh Yes! Yes! He rose to his feet, looked up at the dark void, and roared silently, "The darkness will bind me, and I will break through it; If fate wants to take me, I will break this fate...... I'm Li Cannon, Li Cannon who can't die! Ah......h

Suddenly, he froze, "Ah......hh

"Wake up...... Wake up ......" A surprised voice sounded in his ears, "The head of the regiment is awake......

"Da Da Da ......"

The sound of chaotic footsteps sounded, Li Siwei suddenly opened his eyes, and saw familiar figures rushing in, looking at himself with happy faces, and a pair of concerned eyes...... Tears glistened.

"Regiment Commander......" Huanghua's legs and feet were the fastest, and he rushed to the side of the bed, his eyes were red, "Commander, you are awake...... Woo, they all said that I hurt you, and if you can't wake up, I'll pay for your life. ”

In that battle, Li Siwei was injured with more than ten knife wounds and a gunshot wound all over his body, the most fatal being the knife wound on his left chest...... He was carried on the back of Huang Hua, who was dazed, and he was bumpy all the way, almost bleeding all over his body, so others would say that Huang Hua killed him.

Li Siwei was stunned, looked at Huanghua, and smiled hard, "What...... What's that? You...... You save ...... Finish...... I. His voice was weak and hoarse.

"Hehe...... Huang Hua burst into laughter, turned his head to look at everyone, and smirked, "The head of the regiment said that I saved him, hehe, I saved him......"

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay," Master Guan also squeezed over, "Li Cannon, you have a good rest...... The little devil withdrew ......"

Li Siwei was stunned, only to find that he was lying in a dilapidated room...... A few pieces of wood were put on top of the ruined walls, and a few broken mats were put on top of them, and a house was built!

Outside the room, it was already dark, but the huge fire was dazzlingly bright, and the smell of barbecued meat wafted through the air...... He was startled and struggled to get up, but his hands went limp, and he fell weakly on the bed.

Huang Hua hurriedly went to help him, "Commander, don't move......"

Li Siwei was still struggling, and said in a trembling voice: "What about the brothers? Where are the brothers? What about the Black Bull? What about the three peoples? Lu Ying......" He muttered as if he was talking to himself, and as if he was stunned.

Huang Hua was confused for a while, and he didn't know what to do.

And all the people were silent, and they bowed their heads.

Li Siwei was shocked, and two lines of tears rolled down, "Take me to see them...... I'm going to see them...... I'm the one who hurt them, it's me who hurt them......"

"Don't ...... like this" Ning Rou squeezed over, grabbed his shoulders tightly, and looked at him with tears in her eyes, "You...... Don't do this...... You're so badly injured that you can't move...... Woo, don't ...... like that."

"Girl, woo...... Girl, let me meet them......" At this moment, he cried like a child, "Let me meet them......"

When Ning Rou saw his appearance, she couldn't help crying "wow", and everyone also looked sideways and secretly wiped their tears...... The world has only seen "victory", but they know how cruel it is!

"Howl a hammer," Liao Heiniu's voice sounded, "the national army must protect the land under its feet, and the national army must protect the people behind it...... Maybe in the next moment, the battle will start and we will die...... When we die in battle, we are heroes......"

Everyone turned sideways one after another, getting out of the way, Liao Heiniu was covered in bandages, supported by a brother, and slowly walked towards Li Siwei.

"Hei Niu," Li Siwei was startled and looked at Liao Hei Niu in a daze, "You...... You're not dead yet? And what about the brothers? ”

Liao Heiniu didn't answer his question, but walked towards him slowly, looking at him fixedly, "Li Cannon, did you say these words yourself?" ”

"I ...... I ......" Li Siwei looked at Liao Heiniu with a sneer, his lips trembling.

Liao Heiniu looked at him fixedly, "Whether you remember it or not, Lao Tzu remembers, and the brothers remember...... They all want to be heroes! Lao Tzu can't discredit the three regiments, can't discredit the national army, can't discredit the Chinese! You are also a hero, in Lao Tzu's heart, you have always been ...... In the hearts of the brothers, you have always been a hero, so they are willing to follow you, even if it is to die! ”

"I ...... I ......" Li Siwei looked at Liao Heiniu in a daze, and wiped a handful of tears violently, "I...... Go and send off the brothers. ”

"Okay!" Liao Heiniu nodded and looked at Ning Rou, "Doctor Ning, it's all up to you." ”

In this battle, more than 80 people were killed in the 3rd Battalion, and 336 people were killed in the 2nd Battalion!

A huge open space was cleared in the city of Pingyi, and firewood stacks were erected, and the bodies of the fallen soldiers were placed on it one by one......

The song "China Will Not Die" was sung before the cremation ceremony began, at this time, the firewood was burning vigorously, and the soldiers and civilians of the whole city gathered around the fire and wept silently.

Two medical soldiers carried Li Siwei and gently placed him in front of the fire, while Ning Rou took care of him carefully.

Li Siwei propped himself up from the stretcher, looked at the raging fire, and wet his eyes with tears, "Brothers, you are all heroes, in my Li Cannon's heart...... Always ......"

The oil lamp was dim like a firefly, Li Siwei opened his eyes leisurely, and saw Ning Rou sitting on the edge of the bed, looking down at himself, his eyes full of tenderness...... Li Siwei also looked at her fixedly, his eyes met, and he was thick before he spoke.

Slowly, a smile appeared on the corner of Li Siwei's mouth, "Why don't you go to sleep yet?" I can't even move...... Are you still afraid of me running away? ”

She didn't smile, just looked at him fixedly, "Only this time...... You can lie quietly and I can take a good look at you......"

His heart trembled, and he tried to squeeze out a smile, "Silly girl, when the battle is over, I will accompany you every day and let you see enough...... I'm afraid that when the time comes, you will get tired of watching again. ”

She gently took his hand and sighed leisurely, "But...... I'm afraid, I'm really scared......"

"I know," Li Siwei shook her soft little hand with his backhand, "I know everything...... At that time, it was pitch black around me, I couldn't see anything, I couldn't say anything...... But I hear the call of my brothers, and I hear your cry...... It is these voices that give me strength, it is you who give me strength......"

"I believe," Ning Rou nodded slightly, "just like on the Bright Ridge, you inspired those seriously injured brothers with your singing......"

"It's so smart," Li Siwei raised his hand, gently touched Ning Rou's head, and smiled, "In the future...... Our child must be a little prodigy. ”

"Kid?" Ning Rou was stunned for a moment, blushed, and hurriedly got up and went out the door, "I'll go get you some boiling water......

Li Siwei smiled, "Girl, you didn't bring a water cup......"

"Ah......" Ning Rou paused, rushed into the house with a flushed face, picked up the water cup and hurriedly ran.

Li Siwei's injury healed quickly, so fast that everyone was surprised...... Some people put it down to hardness, some people put it down to the power of love, and some people put it down to willpower...... Whatever the reason, on the morning of the third day, Li Siwei was able to get out of bed and walk.

Li Siwei got out of bed, and the first thing he did was to go next door and visit Liao Heiniu......

Liao Heiniu saw Li Siwei staggering in, hurriedly sat up from the bed, and looked at Li Siwei with a surprised face, "Li Cannon, what kind of medicine did you take for the turtle, it's getting better so quickly?" It must be Dr. Ning who hid his private ......"

Li Siwei glared at him and scolded with a smile: "Don't talk nonsense to Lao Tzu, hehe, Lao Tzu just can't die!" ”

"Can't die!" Huang Hua happened to walk in, and smiled when he heard this, "Leader, this name is majestic, it suits you well!" ”

Li Siwei was stunned for a moment, and scolded with a smile: "What are you doing with turtles?" Give Lao Tzu a joke here! Let's go, accompany Lao Tzu to the position to see ......"

Huang Hua was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "Commander, aren't you embarrassing me?" If I go with you, Dr. Ning still can't hate me to death? ”

"Long-winded," Li Siwei patted him on the shoulder, "Lao Tzu is a soldier...... What is a soldier? Able to stand, never lying down; Able to fight, never flinching; The enemy is not destroyed, and the battle is not stopped; This body is immortal, and the battle is endless......"

Huang Hua was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Li Siwei with blazing eyes, his face full of admiration! He is also a literate person, but he can't say this, at least not as naturally as the head of the regiment! That's so confident!

Liao Heiniu had already laughed, "Li Cannon, are you talking about Lao Tzu?" Let's go, Lao Tzu will accompany you for a trip......" As he spoke, Liao Heiniu turned over and got out of bed, leaned on crutches, and limped out of the door.

Li Siwei grabbed him, "Rest well, don't be reckless, Lao Tzu doesn't want to have many lame battalion commanders under him." ”

Li Siwei walked in the ruins with Huanghua, and he knew in his heart that Pingyi had lost its value, and the 66th Division could not be consumed here all the time.
