Many years later, when people came to visit Liu Chengzhou's tomb, they only saw an old tomb overgrown with weeds.
Liu Chengzhou, a native of Pi County, Sichuan Province, was in the fourth phase of the Higher Education Class of the Central Military Academy. He was the commander of the 152nd Regiment of the 62nd Brigade of the 26th Division of the 43rd Army of the National Revolutionary Army. He died on the battlefield in Shanghai at the age of 10.
In addition to that, the tombstone was engraved with Liu Chengzhou's last words before he died:
Those who lost their positions, kill!
On the sixth day, the brothers of the 26th Division once again defended with their flesh and blood. However, the 26th Division now existed in name only!
There was no sign of life in the 26th Division's camp. All they could see was a deathly aura. Corpses were everywhere. There were the bodies of the twenty-six brothers and the evil Japanese.
At the Third Company's position, Ye Fan and Lu Cheng were still sitting next to each other. Neither of them spoke, just enjoying this moment of peace.
Six days had completely refreshed Ye Fan's worldview. In his heart, a seed had been planted at some point---I swear not to return until I get rid of the Tartars!
Six days ago, Ye Fan knew the Battle of Songhu like the back of his hand. However, now that he had really come to the battlefield, he realized that his previous understanding was just a joke. Without experiencing this battle, who had the right to say?
Through history, Ye Fan knew that the Battle of Songhu was the most tragic battle fought by the Chinese army. Among them, the Sichuan army was the most tragic, and the 26th division of the Sichuan army was the most miserable!
In the trenches, Ye Fan and Lu Cheng were sitting there without any breath. However, there were grenades and bullets around them. Those were the last things they could collect on the battlefield.
The " Death " flag had also been erected by Ye Fan at some point. The red and black Death flag was still fluttering, but there were many tattered holes on it.
After a long time, Ye Fan and Lu Cheng's gazes shifted from the Death Flag.
Ye Fan wiped the gun again, while Lu Cheng took out the old pipe. Then, he took out a tobacco stick and lit it up with trembling hands.
No one knew what would happen on the last day, but there was no doubt that the two of them would not be able to hold their position unless a miracle happened!
"Cough cough cough ~"
Lu Cheng's coughing sound seemed to bring some life to this devastated battlefield.
"Squad Leader Lu, if you can't smoke, then don't smoke.”Ye Fan said softly.
Lu Cheng chuckled and didn't mind. After spitting out a mouthful of blood, he said in an intoxicated manner,""Damn it, why didn't I realize that this cigarette was a good thing before?”
"Scholar, do you know what our brothers call you in private?”Lu Cheng said, his eyes still looking ahead.
Ye Fan was stunned. He did not know when he had become a scholar. He probably looked like a scholar in clothes.
"What did you call me?"
Lu Cheng chuckled and knocked the pipe in his hand against the bottom of his shoe. The ashes immediately scattered.
"They all said that you were the King of Hell in your previous life. They called you the Living King of Hell and said that whoever they wanted to kill would die.”
Ye Fan smiled lightly and shook his head. If he was really the living King of Hell, how good would that be?!
"Class monitor, what do you want to do in the future?”Ye Fan asked.
Lu Cheng was stunned when he heard that. He never thought that he would be able to get out alive.
"Hehe, for me, it's very simple." Lu Cheng finally revealed a genuine smile, his eyes filled with yearning.
"I just want to plant two acres of barren land in my hometown, marry a wife, and then give birth to a fat son for my mother to carry. What about you? What do you want to do as a scholar?”
"Me?" Ye Fan sighed. As far as he could see, other than corpses, there were still corpses. Even the buildings were built with corpses.
"As for me, I will kill all the Japanese in the future and then defeat Old Duduan..." Ye Fan stopped halfway through his sentence. Lu Cheng didn't understand and kept asking.
How would he know that after chasing away the Japanese, there would be a few more years of civil war!
"Forget it, it's fine if I don't say it." Ye Fan shook his head. Just as he was about to speak again, he heard the sound of artillery bombardment coming from afar!
"Quick, Third Company, everyone prepare for battle!”Ye Fan jumped up reflexively. However, he forgot that there were only the two of them left in three consecutive battles.
Lu Cheng stuffed the pipe into his waist and smiled."Yes, Third Company, enter your battle positions!”
On the other side, the Japanese had come back after a round of bombardment. It was obvious that they were very tired. After fighting for so long, their 26th Division had dragged on until the seventh day under the Japanese's fierce bombardment!
There weren't many people from the Japanese. It seemed that the backup team hadn't arrived yet. However, half of the team was enough for Ye Fan and the others to be busy.
