Xu Meiqi took Xiao Min to the finance room, and the manager of the finance room looked at Li Tie's approval of 200,000 yuan and sighed:

"Alas, our Manager Li is just very good-hearted, I heard that there were more than one million weapons donated to the Northern Expeditionary Army a while ago. Now a white slip is donated for 200,000 yuan, even if you have money, you can't stand spending it like this. ”

After speaking, he looked at the cashier opposite, and then looked at the two girls beside him meaningfully, it was obvious that the staff member was suspicious of Li Tie's true intentions.

However, you still have to give the money that should be given, write your name on the white slip, stamp it, and hand it over to the cashier on the opposite side. The cashier looked at Xu Meiqi and the two just smiled, signed it, and opened the safe to get the golden ticket.

Xiao Min didn't expect Li Tie to really donate one million to the Northern Expeditionary Army, and looked at Xu Meiqi incredulously: "Sister Meiqi, did we really misunderstand Li Tie." Li Tie is not an iron rooster, but he is still a patriotic and good man? ”

Xu Meiqi was not too embarrassed, but it was impossible to save face by asking the two of them to go back and apologize to Li Tie now. In the end, he put away the golden ticket of 200,000 silver dollars and left Huaxing Foreign Bank with Xiao Min.

Xu Meiqi made up her mind in her heart that the 200,000 silver dollars they would definitely spend on the blade, and when she returned to Shanghai, she would definitely take Xiaomin to apologize to Li Tie in person.

On July 9, 1926, the robbery of the Yamato Bank in Shanghai was still under further investigation, and the sensation caused by this case at that time was well known to the whole world.

From the day the case occurred, various newspapers in Shanghai followed up with follow-up reports every day, and people from all walks of life in Shanghai, intelligence departments of various countries in Shanghai, spokesmen of various Chinese forces, and various intelligence departments of the Japanese military all carried out vigorous searches and investigations.

However, more than 100 tons of gold seemed to have evaporated from the world, and all forces tried hard for months but still found nothing. Just when the forces of all parties stepped up their investigations, and people were full of gossip about the robbery after dinner.

A huge piece of news came from Guangzhou, which quickly occupied the headlines of newspapers all over the country, and at the same time became the top priority of the whole of China and all forces, and even the robbery of the Yamato Bank was covered up.

This news is that on this day, the Northern Expeditionary Army officially swore its oath, the army has been mobilized, and the Northern Expeditionary Army has a total of more than 100,000 people in eight armies, and the first to bear the brunt is the warlord Wu Peifu who is in Hunan and Hubei.

The Northern Expeditionary Army marched all the way, and in just over a month, it captured most of Hunan and Hubei.

After a bloody battle, the Northern Expeditionary Army finally captured Tingsi Bridge, the important town of Xianning and Hesheng Bridge in late August 1926, under the leadership of the Ye Ting Independent Regiment of the Iron Army, and defeated Wu Peifu's main force. Now he is actively preparing to capture Wu Peifu's last lair, Wuchang.

Because the Guangdong National Revolutionary Army of the Northern Expedition achieved brilliant results in the Yangtze River valley and in the Jiangsu-Zhejiang battlefields, the imperialist forces, especially the British imperialists, in China suffered a heavy blow. In order to consolidate its power in the Yangtze River valley, the British government stepped up its intervention in the Chinese revolution.

On 5 September, the British warships "Jiahe," "Weijing," and "Kirktev" entered the bank of the Wanxian River, forcibly seized two British steamers Wantong and Wanxian, which had been detained by the Sichuan Government and deliberately rammed our civilian boats and injured our fishermen, and shot and killed the soldiers of the Janssen Department who were guarding the boat.

Janssen's troops responded with prior orders. The British warships actually opened fire on the densely populated and prosperous urban area of Wanxian County for nearly three hours, firing more than 300 shells and incendiary bombs, killing and wounding thousands of Chinese people, and destroying more than 1,000 houses and shops, causing the "Wanxian Massacre."

The tragedy caused an uproar throughout the country, and this was another atrocity committed by imperialism in China, which once again inspired the determination of the whole of China to resist foreign aggression.

All of a sudden, the British shouted and beat the Chinese, many British expatriates were killed, and British shops were burned. There are also many British military garrisons, which have also attracted unknown bomb attacks.

At the same time, all British-flagged ships were denied docking at Chinese docks in rivers, lakes and seas, and workers refused to load or unload cargo.

The British government had no choice but to intervene in the matter and recall the warship that caused the incident to Hong Kong, accompanied by two steamers, Vantone and Wanxian. The British government nominally said that it was withdrawing the captains of the three warships and at the same time escorting the captains of the two steamships Wantong and Wanxian back to Hong Kong for trial, but in fact it was the three warships that protected the two warships to temporarily avoid Hong Kong, and only waited for this period of limelight to pass, and then naturally came out to make trouble.

Unfortunately, the British government thought well, and the government of the Republic of China was in a civil war, so it did not have the time or energy to deal with the British government. But in fact, some people are already thinking about taking revenge on the British government, and they are trying to get justice for the Chinese people. This person is none other than Li Tie.

Since the day of the Wanxian tragedy, the news reached Shanghai, the men of Huaxing Foreign Bank and the gang of the Axe Gang were full of righteous indignation, Li Tie saw that the people's support was available, so he discussed with the thousand-tailed scorpion around him, and he was going to Hong Kong in a few days to inspect the construction of the Hong Kong Industrial City.

It's better to bring more people this time and see if I can teach the British a lesson in Hong Kong. The Axe Gang, who was afraid that things would not be a big deal, naturally strongly agreed, and even the thousand-tailed scorpion shouted that he would follow Li Tie in person. It's a pity that the Axe Gang in Shanghai still has very important things to do with the Thousand Tails Scorpion. So Li Tie and the people of the Axe Gang began to make various preparations for this trip to Hong Kong.

On September 10, when the Northern Expeditionary Army had just defeated Wu Peifu and occupied Nanchang, and Li Tie's trip to Hong Kong was almost ready, Xu Meiqi visited again in the office of Huaxing Foreign Company.

This time, only Xu Meiqi came to visit, looking at Xu Meiqi, who had only been seen for a few months, with a haggard expression and a pitiful face. Li Tie didn't know if anything had happened to Xu Meiqi's family, so he had to ask tentatively: "Meiqi, is there something wrong at home, why don't you let Xiao Min come with you?" ”

Hearing Li Tie mention Xiaomin, Xu Meiqi, who had a serious face, finally couldn't help crying in front of Li Tie. Li Tie hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him.

It turned out that since three months ago, Xu Meiqi returned to Tongji University with 200,000 silver dollars from Li Tie, and was highly praised by the Northern Expedition Youth Student Army.

It took only three days for the student army to purchase a batch of medicines in Shanghai and go to Guangzhou to defect to the revolutionary government in Guangzhou, and along the way, everyone's actions were also smooth and there were no surprises.

When they arrived in Guangzhou, the revolutionary army also vigorously welcomed the student army that came to support. These students were also assigned to various units. These students mingled with the officers and men of the unit, and they got along very well.

It wasn't until a month later that the Northern Expedition officially began, and Xu Meiqi and Xiaomin were assigned to the Iron Army as medical personnel with the army, and they could still be taken care of at the beginning, which was not very hard.

However, the battle became bigger and bigger, and the war became more and more cruel, and there began to be a shortage of medicine, and many soldiers died of wound infections because they did not have medicine, could not receive emergency treatment, and their wounds were infected.

Many of the students in the student army were also killed in the battle, and even a few female students in the medical team were killed by shells and stray bullets.

After more than a month of fighting, Xu Meiqi has deeply realized the cruelty of war, and also understands Li Tie's persuasion, without medicine, they can only become a burden to the soldiers on the battlefield.

Before everyone came to support the Northern Expedition, they were already prepared to sacrifice. But when the classmates who came with her sacrificed one by one, Xu Meiqi was heartbroken every time.

The cruelty of the war has also ravaged Xu Meiqi's kind heart, fortunately, with the pistachio Xiao Min, she did not collapse on the battlefield, every time Xiao Min happily amused her and soothed her soul, so that Xu Meiqi passed those difficult days strongly.

Until one day, their medical team and troops were separated. Halfway through, they encountered a group of enemy troops. In order to cover the medical team, Xiao Min took a gun alone and led the enemy away.

When the medical team found the large army and came to look for Xiao Min, they found that Xiao Min had died. If it was just a normal sacrifice, Xu Meiqi would not be strong and could bear it.

But when she saw that Xiao Min was killed by the enemy**, and was cut off ** after death, and after cutting off her limbs, Xu Meiqi really couldn't support it.

Looking at the sisters who died tragically, Xu Meiqi collapsed. Later, under the vigorous rescue of the medical team, his life was saved, but the whole person's spirit was completely gone.

Because Xu Meiqi was the leader of the student army this time, and she was a meritorious hero, the student army finally decided to send her back to Shanghai.

In this way, Xu Meiqi, whose nerves were stimulated, finally returned to Shanghai, and Xu's father invited famous doctors in Shanghai, and under multiple diagnoses and treatments, Xu Meiqi finally regained her senses.

Xu Meiqi, who has regained her senses, has been thinking a lot these days. She had lost faith in her future and had doubts about her beliefs.

In the end, she remembered what Li Tie said to her when she set off, so she deliberately found Li Tie, hoping that Li Tie could give her confidence.

Li Tie looked at Xu Meiqi in front of him, his eyes were misty, and he also regretted it in his heart, he slowly held Xu Meiqi's hands: "Xiaomin's death is just one of the countless tragedies in China, don't you want to end this tragedy?" ”

Xu Meiqi heard Li Tie say this, and nodded heavily.

"China will be reunified sooner or later, as long as the whole country is reunified, there will be no more warlord scuffles, do you want to contribute to the reunification of the country?"

"Yes."

"Then you're going to get better quickly. Use your healing skills to heal more warriors. Only with more warriors can we eliminate the warlords faster. But there are only a limited number of people you can treat, do you want to heal our wounded soldiers in large quantities? ”

"Of course." Xu Meiqi's eyes were firm.

"Then why don't we open a hospital and another pharmaceutical factory to produce life-saving medicine? Treat the wounded fighters and the sick Chinese people. ”

"Yes, but how do we open a hospital or a pharmaceutical factory?"

"You see, I have the money, I know where to buy prescriptions, I can invest in building the largest hospital in Shanghai, the largest pharmaceutical factory in China.

But you know, I'm busy, and I need someone of my own, someone I can trust to take care of all this. Can you do it? Are you willing to do it? ”

"I, can I do it?" Unconsciously, Xu Meiqi has come out of the fog at the beginning.

"You can do it, trust me. Well, I'm going to Hong Kong in a few days, and I'll choose two places for you in Shanghai first, and I have ready-made land in my hands.

You're on the site these days and you're in charge of building hospitals and pharmaceutical factories. In Europe, there is a medicine called sulfonam, which has a good bactericidal effect and can prevent and treat wound infections very well.

I have a friend who is in France, and I asked him to help buy out this technology, and then register it as our patent, and when I get back to Shanghai from Hong Kong, we will start production, and we will never be afraid of the death of a wounded soldier in the future. Can you do both of these things while I'm away from Shanghai? ”

Xu Meiqi nodded firmly, and finally had the same look in her eyes as before. Xu Meiqi looked at Li Tie affectionately, and first said softly: "Thank you, Li Tie." Then one stood upright, saluted a military salute, and shouted in a crisp voice: "I promise to complete the task you have assigned."

Looking at Xu Meiqi's standard military posture and listening to Xu Meiqi's solemn assurance, it seems that Xu Meiqi has been trained in the Northern Expeditionary Army.

Li Tie was very happy to finally untie Xu Meiqi's heart knot, but listening to Xu Meiqi's last reassurance, why did he always feel very familiar?
