Spy War: I am the Living King of Hell

Chapter 219 "Eight Hundred Heroes"

After November came, the situation of the Shanghai-Hai War changed dramatically. Although the Chinese army fought bravely, they were ultimately defeated by the Japanese army. On November 11, the principal issued an order for a full retreat.

However, due to hasty orders and out-of-control command, the retreat turned into a comprehensive rout. Many national troops were not killed on the battlefield, but died on the way to the retreat.

On November 11, the Shanghai and Hainan authorities issued a notice to the citizens, sadly announcing the fall of Shanghai, the largest city in the Far East.

After the fall of Shanghai, the people across the country fell into grief. The Japanese army burned, killed and looted in Shanghai. Although there was no massacre like Jinling, the crimes were numerous and too numerous to describe.

These days, Yang Xuewu leads the "Anti-Japanese Anti-Japanese Anti-Japanese Rape Team" who goes out early in the morning and returns late at night, specifically hunting down Japanese soldiers who are burning, killing and looting.

In just a few days, more than 200 Japanese soldiers died in their hands. They needed the blood of the little Japanese to calm the anger in their hearts and avenge the compatriots who were killed by the little Japanese.

However, as the Japanese army's control over Shanghai continued to strengthen, Yang Xuewu had to give up the operation. If this continued, if they were blocked by the Japanese army, they would sooner or later suffer casualties.

"Second brother, do you know that Xie Yuanbu retreated into the public concession some time ago?" Xu Xiaoyu suddenly asked when Yang Xuewu decided to take a break from hunting for the day.

"Xiao Yu, who is Xie Yuan? Why did they withdraw from the public concession?" Yang Xuewu was a little confused.

Early the next morning, Yang Xuewu came to the public concession and then to Singapore Road.

"I understand. I will go to investigate tomorrow. No matter what the price, I will definitely rescue "Xie Yuanbu". Even the King of Heaven can't stop me." Yang Xuewu said angrily.

If he hadn't remembered them, Yang Xuewu might not have cared about them, but now that he remembered them, Yang Xuewu had to intervene. He decided to save the "Eight Hundred Warriors". They should appear on the battlefield to fight the Japanese army to the death, instead of Being locked up like a prisoner.

"Xiaoyu, do you know how they are doing now?" Yang Xuewu asked seriously.

The same goes for several other people, each expressing their request to rescue "Xie Yuanbu".

"Damn it!" Yang Xuewu slapped the case and stood up. At this time, the anger in his heart had reached the extreme.

"Brother Wu, we must rescue them. They are anti-Japanese heroes. We cannot let the concession lock them up like prisoners." Xiaohui said angrily.

Hearing this, Xu Xiaoyu said angrily: "Second brother, I know. A few days ago, a patient in my clinic talked about the situation of "Xie Yuanbu" during treatment. Later, I inquired about it myself and found out that "Xie Yuanbu" was imprisoned. ”

The faces of several other people also showed anger. The anti-Japanese heroes were actually imprisoned in the concession. As long as they are Chinese people with a conscience, it is impossible not to be angry.

Yang Xuewu admired the "Eight Hundred Warriors" from the bottom of his heart, because they represented the true unyielding spirit of Chinese soldiers and were a beacon of light in this dark age.

When they arrived at Singapore Road, Yang Xuewu finally found the location of "Xie Yuanbu" after careful search.

Yang Xuewu had some vague impressions of the deeds of the "Eight Hundred Heroes". They seemed to have been imprisoned by the concession authorities after entering the concession and were held as prisoners. Xie Yuan seemed to have been assassinated and sacrificed in the end. The results of the other heroes seemed to be the same. Neither is good.

Their tenacious and unyielding spirit should also be promoted, and to promote their spirit, they must be rescued and allowed to shine on the anti-Japanese battlefield.

"Recently, the concession authorities have organized the "Xie Yuan Department" into an "isolated army camp." The so-called "isolated army camp" is actually a "prisoner camp."" Speaking of this, Xu Xiaoyu choked up.

"But after Xie Yuanbu disarmed, the concession authorities did not keep their promise and sent Xie Yuanbu to a wasteland on Singapore Road. The concession authorities set up several tents on the wasteland for Xie Yuanbu to live in and sent people to guard them. There is no intention of letting them return to their original units.”

"Originally, the concession authorities made a good promise. After letting Xie Yuanbu disarm, they agreed to let them return to the army through Huxi to refit and fight again."

"Moreover, the concession authorities have placed elevated iron wires around the "Gujunying" camp, heavily guarding the gate, and prohibiting "Xie Yuanbu" from going out. They are completely isolated from the outside world."

"The second brother is Xie Yuanbu who is responsible for guarding the Sihang Warehouse. They defended the Sihang Warehouse and even repelled the Japanese attacks many times. The concession authorities were afraid that it would affect them, so they ordered the government to order Xie Yuanbu to withdraw from the public concession. On November 11 We evacuated the concession on the 1st of March, and it has been many days now.”

……

Hearing this, Yang Xuewu's face showed a cold look. The concession authorities were really looking for death. They went back on their word and imprisoned the anti-Japanese warriors.

When he heard Xie Yuanbu, Yang Xuewu still didn't react, but when he heard that he was guarding the Sixing Warehouse, Yang Xuewu recalled fiercely, wasn't this the famous "Eight Hundred Warriors" in later generations.

Yang Xuewu found a hillside to observe the "Xie Yuanbu" and found that they were singing the national anthem and holding a flag-raising ceremony.

Seeing this scene, Yang Xuewu's eyes were wet. Even though he was imprisoned, "Xie Yuanbu" did not give up on himself. After the flag-raising ceremony, "Xie Yuanbu" began to go to class. Even without weapons, it could not stop them from training.

This further strengthened Yang Xuewu's determination to save them. If such troops did not fight the Japs on the battlefield, it would be a loss for the country and the nation.

However, it is extremely difficult to rescue "Xie Yuanbu". The people currently responsible for guarding "Xie Yuanbu" are the Belarusian troops of the All Nations Merchant Group.

The so-called Merchant Group of All Nations is a Shanghai-Hai volunteer team organized by Britain, the United States and other countries in the name of protecting expatriates. They are the militarized arms of the concession authorities, and can also be said to be the concession authorities' garrison in Shanghai.

The members of the All Nations Business Group come from many countries, and the main members are from Belarus.

The so-called White Russians refer to those nobles and military officers who held an anti-Soviet stance since the October Revolution in Russia, and the Russians who followed them or were coerced into doing so.

After these Belarusians escaped from Russia, they lived all over the world. Many of them came to China. After they arrived in China, after they squandered all their wealth, they could only act as doormen, security guards, or gatekeepers. The best The situation is the White Russian troops joining the merchant corps of all nations.

The Belarusians who can enter the business group of all nations are the elites of the Belarusians, otherwise Britain, the United States and other countries would not spend money to support them.

Because the All Nations Merchant Group has the support of Britain and the United States, its weapons and equipment are very good. In addition, the soldiers in the All Nations Merchant Group are carefully selected, so their combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated.

Yang Xuewu counted and found that there were more than 60 Belarusian guards responsible for guarding "Xie Yuanbu". They not only controlled the commanding heights, but also held heavy weapons. It was a difficult problem just to deal with these guards, let alone to rescue "Xie Yuanbu" from the public concession and then send them out of Shanghai. The difficulties were great, but no matter how great the difficulty was, Yang Xuewu had to rescue them.

In order to successfully rescue "Xie Yuanbu" from Shanghai, he must have the cooperation of "Xie Yuanbu", so Yang Xuewu decided to sneak into the camp under darkness tonight and meet Xie Yuan in person.

……

At 10 o'clock in the evening, Yang Xuewu came to the "Xie Yuanbu" camp again. Although "Xie Yuanbu" was surrounded by barbed wire, this obstacle was nothing to Yang Xuewu, and he entered the camp smoothly.

At this time, all the officers and soldiers of "Xie Yuan's Department" had basically rested, leaving only two people on duty. Yang Xuewu paid special attention to the tent where Xie Yuan lived during the day, so he easily bypassed the officers on duty and came to the tent where Xie Yuan lived.

Xie Yuan was very vigilant. He woke up as soon as Yang Xuewu entered the tent. This was because Yang Xuewu did not hide his traces. If he had intentionally hidden it, he believed that Xie Yuan would not be able to notice that he entered the tent at all.

"Who?" Xie Yuan asked warily.

"Shh, Commander Xie, don't speak loudly, I am one of our own." Yang Xuewu said softly.

Hearing this, Xie Yuan was surprised. He originally thought it was his subordinates who came in, but it was obvious that the people talking to him now were not his subordinates.

Then Yang Xuewu took out a candle and lit it, and Xie Yuan saw Yang Xuewu's appearance clearly.

"Hello, Commander Xie. I am Lieutenant Colonel Yang Xuewu of the Secret Service. I am here specifically for you and your subordinates tonight." Yang Xuewu stated his intention.

"You are Dai Chunfeng's man. Did Dai Chunfeng ask you to come?" Xie Yuan said in surprise.

"Captain Xie, Chief Dai didn't ask me to come here, but I came here myself. I heard that your department was imprisoned here by the concession authorities, so I came here to investigate."

"I didn't expect this to be the case. I came here tonight to discuss with Commander Xie how to rescue Commander Xie and your men."

Xie Yuan was silent after hearing this. He thought that Yang Xuewu came under orders, but he didn't expect that it was his own behavior.

"Lieutenant Colonel Yang, thank you very much for your kindness, but Xie was ordered by the Chairman to withdraw into the concession. If you come to the light, you should leave with dignity. How can you escape without permission?"

Hearing this, Yang Xuewu smiled bitterly. If the principal really cared about the life and death of "Xie Yuanbu", he would have negotiated with the concession authorities long ago. How could he let the concession authorities imprison "Xie Yuanbu".

Moreover, the reason why the concession authorities imprisoned "Xie Yuanbu" must have involved the Japanese. During the defense battle of Sihang Warehouse, "Xie Yuanbu" caused great losses to the Japanese army. How could the Japanese let "Xie Yuanbu" leave safely? Shanghai and Haihai.

"Thank you, Commander, don't you understand? Even if the Chairman wants to give an order to your subordinates at this time, your subordinates will not be able to receive it."

"And now that the country is in danger, does Commander Xie want to be imprisoned here for life? Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your subordinates. You can ask them to see what they want. Even if I die fighting the Japanese, I am still willing to die alone as a prisoner here.”

Yang Xuewu said something irritating, if Xie Yuan insisted on not escaping, then whatever he did would be redundant.

Hearing this, Xie Yuan was really moved. As a staunch soldier, of course he wanted to go to the battlefield to kill the Japanese instead of being imprisoned here like a prisoner.

"Lieutenant Colonel Yang, even if we want to escape, it won't be that easy, right? Now that Shanghai has been lost, the Japs have occupied Shanghai. It's not easy to rescue hundreds of us from Shanghai!" Xie Yuan sighed.

"Thank you, Commander, if you want to leave, I, Yang Xuewu, promise to let you leave Shanghai safely. I am also a soldier. Please thank Commander for trusting me."

Looking at Yang Xuewu's sincere eyes, Xie Yuan finally made up his mind.

"Lieutenant Colonel Yang, I promise you, if I really have the chance to leave, I will definitely leave and continue to fight the Japanese with my brothers." Xie Yuan said firmly.

Hearing this, Yang Xuewu gave Xie Yuan a military salute. Such an anti-Japanese hero deserves his salute, and Xie Yuan returned the salute.

"Thank you, Captain. Next, you and your brothers should take good care of themselves and wait for news from me. I will come to pick you up after I have settled everything."

"I understand, thank you Lieutenant Colonel Yang. If I can really get out, Lieutenant Colonel Yang will be the benefactor of all the officers and soldiers of our 524th Regiment." Xie Yuan said solemnly.

"Thank you for being so polite, Commander. This is what I should do."

On the way home, Yang Xuewu thought for a moment. He wanted to rescue Captain Xie and others from the concession. He couldn't do it by himself. He must have the participation of Captain Xie and others.

It happened that last time they snatched arms from the Japanese army, Yang Xuewu left some equipment in his own space. Although Captain Xie and the others were known as the "Eight Hundred Warriors," 400 people died in the battle to defend the Sixing Warehouse and during the retreat. There are only more than 400 officers and soldiers alive now, and the weapons in Yang Xuewu's space are enough for them to use. (The content of the chapter about snatching arms has been changed. If you don’t understand, you can read it)
After finding a way out of Shanghai, Yang Xuewu planned to transport the weapons to the camp of "Xie Yuanbu" and let them deal with the White Russian guards in person. This would not only reduce Yang Xuewu's pressure, but also give Captain Xie and the others something to do. Ability to protect oneself.

Without weapons, Captain Xie and the others were like lambs to be slaughtered, but with weapons, they were powerful soldiers. With the help of Yang Xuewu, the 60 or so White Russian guards would be easy to eliminate.

After returning to his residence, Yang Xuewu thought for a while and decided to ask for Virgo's help. He felt that with his ability, he could rescue Captain Xie and others from Shanghai. But after leaving Shanghai, if no one took care of them, they would be out. Where to go after Shanghai?

There are wars everywhere now. Without Virgo's help, Yang Xuewu felt that even if Commander Xie was rescued, Commander Xie and the others would still die on the way to find their original troops.

Yang Xuewu rescued Captain Xie and others, but he didn't want them to die on the road like this. The most suitable thing for them was to return to the rear smoothly, accept awards from the party and state, then regroup and embark on the journey to resist Japan again.

Moreover, Yang Xuewu believes that the principal is definitely willing to let Yang Xuewu rescue Commander Xie and the others. As long as Commander Xie and the others are alive and fighting the Japanese, then they are a flag and a spirit, which is very important to the country and the nation.

After thinking about it, Yang Xuewu wrote a telegram and asked Xiang Feiyan to send it to the headquarters.

Early the next morning, Dai Chunfeng received a telegram from Yang Xuewu and immediately reported to the principal that he could not decide whether to rescue "Xie Yuanbu" or not, and the principal had to make the decision himself.
