Chapter 68: The Fierce War
Three days later, at noon, a young man hurried into the room.
"Sir! We have prepared a grand banquet for you, and we have expressed our gratitude to you! The village chief said, you must go this time, if you don't go! That's what you want me to ask! The young man said.
"Oops! Why are you village chiefs so polite! We have already caused you a lot of trouble, and if we cause you any more trouble, then our national army will owe you a great favor! Li Qing said with a smile.
"Hehe, sir, don't think about it, we invited you to thank you for saving your life! If you don't go! That's looking down on us! The young man said.
"Oops! Look at what you're saying! Yonghang said with a smile.
"Oh, it seems! We can't go today! Li Qing said with a smile.
"That's nature, you! Must go! The young man said.
Everyone laughed out loud when they heard this.
"Okay, you lead the way, let's go! Everybody, go! Li Qing said to everyone.
"Okay!" The young man answered. So he led the way ahead.
"Let's go!" Li Qing shouted, and everyone followed the young man.
It didn't take long for everyone to enter a large courtyard, and they saw that there were tables full of them, and the villagers were waiting for them. As soon as he saw them, the village chief hurried to meet them.
"You're all here!" The village chief asked.
"Well, it's all here! Excuse me! Let everyone break the bank again, I said, it's not easy for us people, everyone can just give us something to eat, why did you still set up a banquet! Li Qing said with a smile.
"Hey! You saved us, and we should give you all our lives! The village chief replied.
"Oops! Don't dare to take that seriously, don't say that! Li Qing said embarrassedly.
"Hey! You are our benefactor! Well, without further ado, let's do it! Hurry up and get seated, or the food should be cold! The village chief said.
"Hey! No, no, no! The villagers don't have much food, we finished eating this time, what are you going to eat in the future! Li Qing said solemnly.
"What we have is food, you don't have to worry about this, everyone come to the table!" The village chief said to the crowd.
"Hey! Good! I can't resist you, brothers, come to the table! Li Qing said to everyone.
When they heard this, they approached the table and sat down.
Only then did the villagers slowly sit down.
Seeing that everyone was seated, the village chief brought a large wine vat and poured drinks for everyone with a few young men.
"Everyone, raise the bowl!" When the village chief saw that everyone had poured their drinks, he shouted loudly.
Hearing this, everyone stood up and raised their wine bowls.
"This first bowl, I suggest that we all pay tribute to our national soldiers, it is really because of their brave fight against the enemy that we can survive!" The village chief said. After speaking, he raised his wine glass and drank it cleanly in one gulp.
"! Cheers to our early victory over the devils! Li Qing said, and after speaking, he also drank the wine in his hand.
The villagers and warriors watched the two of them drink the wine cleanly, and they also raised their bowls and drank it in large gulps.
"Hahaha! Rejoice! Yonghang took a big sip, then roared with a smile.
"Hehe, you stinky boy!" Li Qing smiled and patted his head.
"Hey! Happy today, let's have this kid to make a temperament! Yan'er said with a smile.
"Good! Then everyone drink happily! There is the friendship of the people in this wine, and after we drink it, we will fight with the friendship of the people! We will definitely be more brave in battle in the future! Li Qing said with a smile.
"Good! Cheers to the early victory over the Japanese devils and the defeat of imperialism! Yonghang said.
So they took their glasses and started to dry them again.
"Hehe, since this little devil began to encroach on our China, I have never been so happy as today, the soldiers of the national army in the past were a group of people who were greedy for life and afraid of death, see the devils! You have never retreated without letting go of the gun, let alone daring to save the people, you are different from these rabbit cubs, you can put your personal life and death out of the way, and put our people in your heart, it's really rare! Your team has such good qualities, and the future must be immeasurable! The village chief said with a smile.
"Hehe, your old man is serious, we should be the masters of the people, and we can't even protect the people, so we soldiers are embarrassed to wear military uniforms!" Li Qing said with a smile.
"Ambitious! It's really rare for this chief to have this kind of thought at such a young age! With a commander like you, then your team will definitely have a good future, listen to me, you must insist on resisting Japan, this little Japanese devil is a group of clowns who jump beams, it is impossible to do anything big on the land of our Chinese, as long as we insist on resisting Japan, the little devils will be defeated by us one day sooner or later! After all, this is not on their territory, this is the land of the Chinese nation! The village chief said.
"Listen to what your old man said! It's like reading more than 10 years of books! Don't worry, your words will be firmly remembered by the juniors! Oh! No! It's engraved in the bones! You can rest assured! We'll win the battle one day! Li Qing said solemnly.
"That's it! It is! Rest assured, this day will come! Yonghang also said.
"Hehe, I believe! I believe! Because we in China have a group of soldiers like you who are not afraid of sacrifice, persist in struggle, and put the interests of the people at heart! So! We're going to win! You are the backbone of our China! The village chief said with a smile.
"Hehe, look at it, you're serious again!" Li Qing said embarrassedly.
Hearing this, everyone burst out laughing.
"Everyone raise their glasses and toast to China's early independence and to drive out the Japanese invaders as soon as possible!" The village chief said again.
"Yes! Raise your glass, everyone! Li Qing said kindly.
So the people raised their glasses again and went down.
"Now tell me what I expect from you!" The village chief said to the soldiers.
"Okay, you say, all our warriors must remember it!" Li Qing replied.
"Soldiers, you are all the pride of our China, because you have not flinched in the face of the enemy! It is to bravely confront it, which is the backbone of China. I admire your bravery, and I hope that you will be able to fight bravely on the battlefield and win the victory as soon as possible! Defeat the devils! Kick them out of China! The village chief said to the soldiers.
"Don't worry, we will fight to the death with the devils, ensure the safety of the people, drive away the Japanese as soon as possible, win the final victory, and restore the people to the peaceful life on weekdays, please believe us, that day is not far away from us." Li Qing said to the villagers.
Hearing this, everyone raised their glasses again and drank happily together, toasting to the early possibility of driving the invaders out of China!
