MTL - After Waking up Beside the Villain-Chapter 187 After 10 years of retreat, I became the No. 1 demon girl in the world...  

"The 131 Battle, also known as the Haicheng Incident, was the first and longest war in the modern history between Huaguo and Dongyang in the eighth year of the Republic of China. , with the Shanghai-Hangzhou railway as the boundary, in the case of isolation and helplessness, they guarded Haicheng for 36 days."

"Some historians call this battle a continuation of World War I, or a prelude to the beginning of World War II..."

In the bright and clean classroom, the two blackboards were pulled open, and the built-in LCD screen played black and white images.

The gray-haired teacher on the podium bowed his back slightly and explained a history lesson today.

The rows of students below in blue and white school uniforms are either lying down, leaning back, or sitting upright, all looking up and listening.

A boy in the window seat squinted and listened for a while, then yawned in distress.

He is not really interested in boring history classes, but he is more interested in doodles about historical celebrities in the textbook and fashionable makeovers for them. Retracting his pretentious, concentrated gaze, he reached out and touched the drawer, and found two highlighters, one green and one yellow.

Flipping through the history book, he searched for objects suitable for transformation in the content of this lesson.

Suddenly, his hand that flipped the page stopped.

Looking at the two photos printed on the page, he opened his mouth in surprise.

Good guy, did this Chu Yunsheng and this Yu Jingzhi bribe the history textbook compilation team?

Why in this half book, everyone else is the image of an old man and an old lady, no matter how young, they are at most middle-aged, just the two of them, in their prime, looking like they are in their twenties , The appearance is also outstanding, and it is even more dazzling and temperamental than many stars now?

When this is put into the old men and ladies on the same page, it is completely different.

Only this appearance is fashionable enough, and it is a pity that he does not need to be transformed. While appreciating the beauty of historical figures, the boys lamented that their heroes were useless.

At this moment, the teacher on the podium suddenly raised her voice and said, "Zhuang Yingrui, you don't listen to the class well, keep your head down and open your mouth, what are you trying to do? There are more than 20 left. It's only a few minutes before get out of class ends, so you're so hungry?"

There was laughter in the classroom.

The boy holding the highlighter, that is Zhuang Yingrui, was shocked by the sound of Leng Buding, but he has rich experience in crime, even if he is named, he is quite general , calmly put down the pen in his hand, raised his head and showed an honest smile to the old gentleman in his sixties.

"Teacher, I'm listening, this is not based on what you said, why don't you draw notes."

The old man laughed: "Okay, then get up and tell your classmates, after listening to what I said, what do you think or understand."

I don't know which paragraph you are talking about.

Zhuang Yingrui's scalp was numb, and she was screaming bad luck.

As he stood up, he glanced at the page at the same table, which was the page he had just turned.

The deskmate didn't squint, his fingers crossed the textbook inadvertently, and he keyed on a paragraph.

Zhuang Yingrui coughed, picked up her book, quickly glanced at the content, then was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously blurted out: "These two handsome guys died young?"

"Hahahaha!"

This voice made the classroom burst into laughter.

The old gentleman on the podium pushed up his glasses, and when the laughter subsided, he raised his hand and gestured for all the students to be quiet: "Actually, Zhuang Yingrui is right, look at the photo , Yu Jingzhi and Chu Yunsheng are two handsome guys, everyone has to admit it."

"They are from the same period and the same age group as several other gentlemen on the same page, in fact, we also want to choose two of their older, more successful periods, There are also more mature pictures in the book, but it's a pity that these two gentlemen didn't live to that age."

The students who still had a smile on their faces gradually quieted down. Zhuang Yingrui stood and looked straight at the podium.

The old man operated the computer, picked out a video, and clicked to play.

"The two of them were important figures leading the battle of Haicheng, and their years will forever follow that old Haicheng, staying in their twenties and eight years of the Republic of China. "

"When you are in your twenties, you may still be in college, graduate school, or just entering the society and working. But they have reached the end of their lives, dedicated to protecting their home and country. In that era, there were many, many people like them, some famous and some unknown.”

The old man's voice became hoarse and seemed to contain deep pain.

"The battle was brutal."

"At that time, the Orientals had just occupied Qingzhou, and despite the dissuasion of European countries, they insisted on going south, and even broke Jinling, Suzhou and Hangzhou, and arrived in Haicheng before New Year's Eve in the eighth year of the Republic of China."

"Chu Yunsheng and Yu Jingzhi had long anticipated that the Orientals would go south, and made many preparations in advance, including but not limited to relocating people into the concession, setting up defense lines, supporting Jinling, contacting foreign aid, etc. Wait. It is these preparations that allow Haicheng to have the miracle of being unbreakable for thirty-six days."

"This is the foundation."

"In addition, the outstanding military talents of these two people and the unity of the military and civilians in Haicheng are also extremely important factors for the miracle."

On the big screen embedded in the blackboard, pictures were broadcast, most of which were solo and group photos of Yu Jingzhi and Chu Yunsheng.

Some are on the front line of Haicheng, some are in the mansion, some are on the bustling streets, and some are dance halls, clubs, racecourses, or a banquet. There are others who look younger, standing in front of the ships at the pier, standing in front of the railway station, students dressed up, and their faces green.

The photo is from the back to the front, the two faces are from gray and mature, to high-spirited, young and frivolous, just like a dying person, carrying out the revolving light of his life , is inexplicably sighed, and the heart is sour.

"Historically, the evaluation of Yu Jingzhi is quite polarized. Some scholars believe that he is a reformed executioner, and some scholars say that he is a hero from beginning to end. As for Chu Yunsheng's information, it is He is very low-key and very mysterious, unlike Yu Jingzhi, a famous figure in Haicheng, and he was dubbed the first person in time travel by many netizens because of a manuscript of drawings that he presented to Mr. Fang Jiming."

"At that time, few people could understand their decision to stick to Haicheng, and some newspapers even criticized them for making unnecessary sacrifices and consumption. If those materials were not transported to Haicheng, they would save lives Hundreds of beggars, if those guns and ammunition are not wasted in Haicheng, they will be able to fully support a fierce small-scale war."

"On the seventh day of defending Haicheng, the Eastern Army crossed the railway line and captured most of Zhabei."

"When I got this news, Yu Jingzhi's old friend, the southern warlord Qiu Hongguang, who had been walking halfway and came to support, turned around and returned with his army on the same day. He believed that the outcome of the war could not be changed. Yu Jingzhi sent five telegrams in a row, persuading him to give up Haicheng."

"On the fifteenth day, Dongyang proposed to the Haicheng Concession to exchange certain benefits for the non-concession residents of Haicheng, hoping to take them as hostages, intimidating and deterring Haicheng. Britain and France were shaken. In three days, there were bombings and more than a dozen assassinations in the concession, and the matter was settled."

"On the 22nd day, the East Asian reinforcements arrived in the northeast and attacked the city with all their strength. Yu Jingzhi was shot at the front line and fell unconscious. Chu Yunsheng took over the command of the war."

"On the twenty-eighth day, the northern Jiangxi warlord Gao Lan launched an attack in the southwest of Haicheng to assist the Dongyang Army. That night, a mutiny broke out in the northern Jiangxi army, Gao Lan was stabbed to death, and the northern Jiangxi army was in battle They turned their backs, attacked the Eastern Army, blocked the transportation of supplies from the Eastern Ocean, and later entered Haicheng and incorporated into the Haicheng Army."

"On the 30th day, Haicheng's reserves are about to be exhausted, the external transportation line is cut off, and the concession refuses to support. Haicheng's army is in a desperate situation of running out of ammunition and food."

"On the thirty-third day, the Eastern Army launched the final general offensive, and the Haicheng army fought to the death."

"The thirty-sixth day...the city broke."

The classroom was silent, and needles could be heard.

A black and white image appeared on the screen where the photo was originally playing.

, fell again, rushed up again, and fell again.

The corpses laying on the ground like earth and stone were piled higher than the mound of the trenches, the shells fell, and the buildings swayed and collapsed like unstable building blocks.

These pictures are shot by foreign reporters, and there are adventures by Huaguo News, but no matter which kind, they are silent.

Those blurred faces are screaming silently, charging silently, and the gunfire of those strafing is breathing silently, killing lives silently.

Compared to the various special effects blockbusters and multiple sound effects that are flooding today, these simple silent images look very inferior and not shocking. But for some reason, all the students looked at it very seriously, very devoted, and even showed a sad expression with empathy.

Well, wasn't Haicheng unable to hold back at that time..."

The old man sighed heavily and said, "I will answer you with the content of a telegram that Yu Jingzhi replied to Qiu Hongguang."

He cleared his throat, looked at his lesson plan, and recited: "'Many people are persuading me to give up Haicheng, but only one person does not persuade me, that is Yunsheng. Because I I don't want him to die, so I often waver and want to send him away. He refused and told me that everything we do now is not meaningless. What we do is simple things to protect the territory of our motherland. , to protect the hometown behind us. We are willing to lose our lives in order to protect our family and country. This is to tell the countless other people that if one day, when the fire of war burns down your homeland and the guns are aimed at your relatives and friends, you will also When you have such courage and belief, you will unswervingly guard everything behind you, never give up an inch of ground, and never move an inch.'"

The old voice was powerful and clear.

"In this battle, the total casualties of Dongyang and Hua Kingdom exceeded 200,000 people, which can be described as tragic."

"There are so few people who still criticize the campaign as meaningless to this day, but I never thought so."

The old man said: "History is not a picture scroll of shining stars, it should not belong to someone, some people, but should belong to everyone who strives for the progress of history and the development of the times. They're dead, even if they're nameless, even if they're just a tiny 'a piece of grass and a tree'."

The get out of class bell rang, and the screen between the blackboards also played the video to the end, leaving only the last two sentences in black on a white background—

"The birth of a new life and the creation of a new fortune must be paid for by suffering!"

"Only the soul of the people is worthy and precious, and only when it is carried forward can China make real progress!"

…

In the gloomy emptiness, a line of familiar fonts slowly emerged.

"Mission: Change Yin Zheng's fate, completion rate is 68%. Please choose whether to enter the next world and continue the mission. Yes/No."

"Yes."

…

Tick, tick—

The sound of slow falling water.

The damp and cold breath erodes the senses, and the slight heat in the lower abdomen is highlighted particularly clearly.

For the second time, I didn't experience the life that accompanies me to grow old, and the end of life, Chu Yunsheng's mind seems to still stay in the endless war. He could perceive that there was no other aura around him, so he did not rush to open his eyes to observe the situation in the new world, but calmly recovered his emotions.

After about half a cup of tea, Chu Yunsheng leaned against the wall and sat up straight.

He was taciturn and was so hungry that he almost lost consciousness. Roughly speaking, this state should have not eaten for a long time. But he is not weak, his dantian is full, and there seems to be a force in his body, which makes him temporarily have abundant energy.

After estimating the condition of her body, Chu Yunsheng raised his eyes and looked around quietly.

This is a dark cell, with stone walls on three sides, and a door, consisting of heavy and thick iron bars, around which there are chains and large locks, rusted and stained .

However, the inside of this cell was cleaned so that it didn't look like a cell.

The flat ground is paved with boulders, at least half of it is quite clean, except for the dried dark blood and the puddles of water dripping from the rocks overhead, there is no other dirt. The other half was scattered with dry straw, some of which were messy, and some of which were being sat under Chu Yunsheng.

Looking out from the iron bars, there is no guard.

The prison door is directly opposite to the ten-level winding stone steps, and a stone door is sealed on it, blocking everything.

It seems that this time he is a prisoner. Chu Yunsheng thought.

However, this is not the focus of his attention at this time, what he really pays attention to is the dress on his body-dark red light and thin dress, full of silver bracelets on both wrists, and rolled up long skirts Zhucui with hair and oblique insertion—if he hadn’t been able to truly feel the reaction of his lower abdomen in the mild heat that the poison was familiar with, he would have believed that he had suddenly become a woman.

After a moment of silence, Chu Yunsheng turned his head, leaned over slightly, and observed his appearance with the puddle as a mirror.

Leaning back on the cold wall, Chu Yunsheng half-closed his eyelids, ready to receive the memory of the plot and the original body.

But at this moment, there was a dull sound from the stone door outside the prison.

The mechanism turned, dust and smoke flew, and the stone door slowly slid to one side.

A dim yellow light entered.

Immediately, a warm and clear male voice came, cold and condensed.

"Demon girl, I'll lock you up for three days, have you figured it out?"
