Chapter 441 (Ending Words) The Revenge of the Republic of China 29
"Brother Beichen, the enemy is invading now, and that's when we are needed."
"I came back from Donggu, the center of the war. Fu Xicheng sent someone to protect me. He saved me many times in Donggu, so I also want to save him once."
"I know that you may think that I am a fickle and fickle woman at this moment, but I can't just stand by and watch Fu Xicheng and the entire Huaxi in the present."
"We were born in Central West China, and I have been well-dressed and well-fed since I was a child, without having to endure any hardship. But I know that you, Brother Beichen, are different."
"You followed my father into battle since you were a child, and you have accumulated a lot of combat experience to defend your country."
"Now is a time of crisis in western China. The country needs us, and the border and central China also need support from us."
"Fu Xicheng is stationed in Donggu with all his personal soldiers, but he is already at the end of his strength. Apart from other things, he is a good leader, and he has indeed made Huaxi stronger step by step during his tenure."
"Brother Beichen, considering that I once saved your life and that we have been childhood sweethearts for more than ten years, I hope and beg you again to lead your troops to support Donggu, to save Fuxi City, to save our president, to save our border, and to save our Huaxi."
Xiao Beichen looked at the defense map that was densely covered with red crosses, and the joy of reuniting with Zhang Shuwan that had just filled his heart was replaced by disbelief.
He listened to every word Xue Yi said.
The red crosses on the defense map indicate places that have been captured. If this continues, within three years, even the North City and West City, the most central parts of the West China Republic, will fall.
By then, all that awaits them is the destruction of their families.
Xiao Beichen is not an unreasonable person, so at this moment he is very rational and clear-headed and knows his own judgment and choice.
In the face of national affairs, love between men and women must be put aside.
If Huaxi was gone, there would naturally be no them, and no home.
Xiao Beichen has followed General Zhang since he was a child, with the ambition to serve the motherland and revitalize western China, and has come to where he is today step by step.
Apart from anything else and putting aside his emotions, his loyalty to the country was unwavering and he was never afraid of war and sacrifice.
A man of steel has a country before he has a home.
He took a deep breath, his Adam's apple rolled a few times, and then he only asked Xue Yi one sentence: "Shu Wan, after this is over, can we go back to the way we were before?"
Xue Yi raised her hand and gently touched his weathered face. She just smiled and said, "Brother Beichen, no matter how many years have passed or how many things have happened, you are still my family."
Xiao Beichen lowered his head bitterly and covered his gloomy eyes with his arms until his clothes became wet.
After a long while, he said:
"I will report it to the governor."
"We will integrate the army and can set off in two days at the earliest."
"Shu Wan, I hope you can come pick me up on the day I return triumphantly."
Xue Yi looked at the night sky outside the car window and smiled very gently: "Okay."
……
Winter of the 17th year of the Republic of China in West China.
The cold air brought not only thick snow to the land, but also bone-chilling cold.
There were countless casualties in the Donggu region, civilians starved to death, froze to death, and soldiers died in battle, their bodies mangled.
Everything seemed to be telling Fu Xicheng that he had been defeated and that he could no longer defend Huaxi.
Xiao Beichen and Grand Commander Zhang, together with the remaining defense teams from West City, and soldiers from 17 cities including Lancheng, set out on the road to assist the border defense.
They arrived in Donggu ten days later, bringing hope of life to Fu Xicheng, who had already seen the road to death.
At that time, there were less than 400 soldiers stationed in the entire Donggu, and they had already stepped half a foot into the abyss of death.
After Xiao Beichen appeared with his troops, the situation instantly reversed.
The 300,000-strong army assembled from the central region won the battle with a crushing victory and saved Donggu.
The troops in North China withdrew hastily and fled everywhere.
After a great victory, Huaxi suffered another fatal blow.
Although Donggu was saved, the North China spies in the central region started to infiltrate at a very fast speed.
Within three days, the North City and the West City were half-occupied due to lack of manpower.
Fu Xicheng did not bring a large army here before because he was afraid of this kind of thing.
Xue Yi looked at the infiltrated North City and West City, quietly disappeared, and accurately assassinated more than 3,000 spies trained in North China overnight.
It can be considered that the two cities were saved for the time being.
By the time everyone was ready to return, the situation in the two cities had stabilized.
But this battle dealt a heavy blow to Huaxi.
Even though Xiao Beichen led his troops to temporarily repel Huabei's army, it still couldn't make the world ignore the painful price Huaxi paid this time.
The population of the Donggu region dropped sharply from 300 to . Of the soldiers brought by Fu Xicheng, less than were left. Border defense buildings were blown up, and more than civilians in the central region were captured by spies.
The intelligence was seriously leaked and stolen.
The West China Republic ushered in another historical winter since its founding.
The last cold winter was seven years ago. The Fu family, as a long-standing and prominent family in western China, took the lead and took on everything.
Seven years later, Fu Xicheng once again found himself in a dilemma between his family and his country.
He was overwhelmed by the precarious national situation in Western China. The soldiers who died in the battle and the 430,000 innocent civilians who were caught in the artillery fire made him feel collapsed and desperate.
Xue Yi watched everything quietly in the dark, but she could not interfere, nor could she intervene.
The sudden emergence of spies in the central region is already a lesson and a warning.
She had assassinated more than 3,000 spies, temporarily eliminating 20% of the potential dangers in the northwest for them.
The rest is up to them.
Fu Xicheng and Xiao Beichen were completely entangled in official duties. They temporarily stood on the same front and began to discuss countermeasures.
And Xueyi seemed to have returned to her previous leisurely life, drinking tea and chatting with Fu Wanyi every day.
Yes, it’s Fu Wanyi.
Fu Xicheng’s nephew, Fu Wanyi, whom I haven’t seen for several years.
After a few years, Fu Wanyi has matured a lot. He still has a strong scholarly air, but Xueyi can obviously feel that he has become much more stable.
The entire story line has deviated from the original plot. Lin Wei, the heroine, has lost her role and can only be a vase.
Although she has an overwhelming sense of justice and wants to show some justice through the power of her pen, she often makes a mess and offends many forces.
At first, she asked Xiao Beichen for help.
Because of their acquaintance, Xiao Beichen helped her solve the problem twice.
Later, seeing that Lin Wei still didn't know how to restrain herself, he just stopped paying attention to her.
Zhang Shuwan is back. In this life, Lin Wei is just a casual acquaintance to him, and he has no other thoughts to devote to her.
After joint discussions between Xiao Beichen, Fu Xicheng, Lin Mo and 47 governors of West China, they finally determined a complete page of targeted policies and solutions for post-war reconstruction.
Huaxi is getting better little by little, and it seems that everything is moving in the right direction.
Xue Yi met Fu Xicheng a few more times, but he was always indifferent and refused to look her in the eye, always avoiding contact and eye contact with her.
The twisted Fu Xicheng thought he was already a useless man, but as a leader he still let the country fall into such a situation.
He couldn't forgive himself, nor could he forgive himself for being so overwhelmed that he forced himself to ignore Zhang Shuwan.
He saw her on the day he returned to West City.
She just stood there, looking at him and smiling.
But for the first time, Fu Xicheng had the thought and idea of escaping. Countless complex emotions intertwined in his heart, making him exhausted.
He could only urge Fu Wanyi to spend more time with her and chat with her.
Zhang Shuwan, who used to love to make trouble, seemed to have calmed down a lot. She no longer acted up or made a fuss and no longer had the temper of a spoiled young lady. She was indifferent, as if their past was just a dream.
During many sleepless nights, Fu Xicheng touched his numb left arm, feeling empty and lonely.
He became a loner in the truest sense of the word.
He missed Zhang Shuwan, but he didn't have the courage to look for her.
And Xue Yi has been waiting for the president, who has temporarily fallen into cowardice, to have the courage to face her again.
But I waited for many years but still nothing happened.
Xiao Beichen became her family, and Fu Wanyi became her confidant.
Only Fu Xicheng, the once fierce and confident man, has restrained his edge and gradually begun to retreat behind the scenes.
At first, I didn't want to see her.
Xue Yi lay in the rocking chair, watching the footage projected by 007. Fu Xicheng stroked their photo over and over again. Moists formed at the corners of her eyes, and she slowly closed them.
He had trouble falling asleep.
He felt very insecure because he couldn't smell the charming fragrance on her.
She sighed, feeling helpless for the first time.
What an awkward and twisted person.
A crack appeared, and she slipped in and appeared in Fu Xicheng's room.
Her arrival didn't even cause any fluctuations in the air, so Fu Xicheng didn't notice her.
And this amount of time was enough for her to make a decision.
Fu Xicheng, lying on the bed, was still holding the photo tightly in his hand, his brows slightly furrowed, and he was sleeping very uneasily.
Xue Yi walked closer, squatted down beside him, and smoothed his brows.
The man was awakened and suddenly grabbed her wrist, but after seeing the face that had been haunting him, he was reluctant to let go.
Fu Xicheng's eyes were misty and he was still a little confused. He murmured, "Is this a dream?"
"Awan..."
Xue Yi smiled softly and gently combed his hair.
"Since it's so painful, why not forget everything."
