It was an endless stream of people, dressed in tattered cotton clothes, with a straw rope tied around their waists, and some even barefoot, but still determined to move in the direction of the sound of the cannons.
China, which is scattered and scattered, is condensed by this war.
Looking at this flow of people, I know that the Japanese cannot win unless the Chinese are willing to lose. ”
Charles's article published in The Times was reprinted by newspapers in various places, and the Chinese people were shaken, and a new round of donations and materials sprung up in various places. Wuhan, Guangzhou, and Chongqing successively broke out in support of the Anti-Japanese War, and Chen Kah Kee, the leader of overseas Chinese in Nanyang, issued a declaration in Wuhan, demanding that the government declare that those who make peace are national thieves before the Japanese invaders fully withdraw from the country. As soon as this remark came out, the press rallied in support.

The village was littered with fires, the corpses of villagers everywhere, and the blood quickly coagulated in the cold weather. Thousands of tyrannical soldiers stood on the flat dirt road at the entrance of the village with a look of contentment, looking at their commander with reverence.
Yasuken Nakajima looked indifferently at the burning village and the beastly soldiers, and slowly showed a smile. He knows that the villagers in this village are not a threat, but he must kill them, use their blood to stimulate the beastliness of the soldiers, although his march is furious, but he is alone after all, once the squadron catches up, what awaits them is annihilation, they must fight like beasts in order to survive and win.
"Soldiers," said Nakajima exclaimed, "ten days ago, we were still in Qi County, but now we have set foot on the land of Anhui, and in these ten days, you have conquered Xinxiang, forcibly crossed the Yellow River, and you have defeated ten times as many enemies as yours!" You are galloping across the land of **! You are invincible! I'm so proud of you! Your family will be proud of you, too! Your great martial arts will forever be recorded in the annals of the imperial army! ”
"Hooray!" Gu Shu's face flushed with excitement, and he raised his arms and shouted.
"Hooray!" "Hooray!" Thousands of arms were raised in the air, like woods, and the soldiers rejoiced at Nakajima's words.
Nakajima stretched out his hands to signal calm, and the field instantly calmed down, and Nakajima said loudly: "I know, you guys are tired, I know, we are short of ammunition, but now we have ** army in front of us!" We have the ** army behind us! Only by defeating them can we live! Only by defeating them can we draw a perfect end to our victory! Do you have faith? ”
"Defeat them!"
"Kill all the ** people!"
"Kill them!"
……
The beast nature that has been provoked by the killing has become more violent, the beast is shouting wildly, Nakajima looked at them seriously, and smiled happily in his heart, if he can defeat the eleventh group army chasing behind, it is possible to successfully rush through the flank of the Tuohe assault squadron, assist Gu Shoufu to open the road to the flank of the five theaters, and then completely annihilate the main force of the ** squadron in the five theaters, and successfully end the ** incident, he, Nakajima Yasian, will establish supreme merit for the empire.
