This celebrity is absolutely wicked.

Chapter 343 We must not let the martyrs remain unknown!

By this time, the characters in the drama had already been established.

Although the main story is about Li Yannian, it is actually an ensemble piece.

There's Xiao Andong, the youngest in the company; Chen Yanzong, who likes to charge into battle alone; Wang Yuwen, the clerk who was initially so scared he wet his pants but quickly grew up on the battlefield; Luo Houcai, who is brave; and Han Dongnian, who isn't very good at communicating.

These characters are all fleshed out and are no longer the kind of characters who are just background figures next to the protagonist.

During the battle, they also continuously exerted their initiative.

The enemy would not have such initiative.

Because the enemy doesn't even know why they are fighting.

Our soldiers know!

Because we know this, everyone will do everything in their power to win this war!

After Luo Houcai rushed out, the audience realized that Luo Houcai was going to sacrifice himself.

This is the final resting place for many heroic warriors.

Luo Houcai was shot and fell to the ground as soon as he rushed out, and Han Dongnian's eyes immediately blazed with anger.

He was the squad leader, and Luo Houcai was his soldier!

"The squad leader will avenge you!" Han Dongnian roared, firing his gun wildly.

At this moment, Luo Houcai got up from the ground again.

Han Dongnian was incredibly excited: "I thought you were dead."

With Han Dongnian's cover, Luo Houcai successfully climbed into the tank.

He turned the tank's turret and aimed it at an enemy tank.

One shot fired, and the tank was immediately rendered useless.

Han Dongnian shouted, "Great job! This is Luo Houcai from Class 5!"

But the enemy tanks also turned their turrets to aim at Luo Houcai.

When the cannon fired, Han Dongnian thought Luo Houcai was dead.

Inside the tank, Luo Houcai was covered in blood, but he remained steadfast, adjusting the angle of the turret.

In an instant, the enemy tanks and his tank opened fire simultaneously.

Flames engulfed the tank.

Luo Houcai, sacrificed!

Han Dongnian's lips were trembling as he called out Luo Houcai's name one last time.

At this moment, the audience watching the play shed tears once again.

"Our soldiers were brave and fearless, our soldiers were resourceful and intelligent. Luo Houcai, may you rest in peace!"

"Why is the battle flag so beautiful? It is because it is stained red with the blood of heroes!"

"Luo Houcai, you are a war hero!"

With the last tank destroyed by Luo Houcai, the enemy forces quickly retreated.

Han Dongnian rested against the trench, singing a military song.

He was complaining about Luo Houcai, who had promised to treat him to drinks once he became a war hero.

After a brief rest, the enemy suddenly charged again.

Han Dongnian instantly picked up his gun and went into combat mode.

This time, however, he was hit by enemy artillery fire.

The battle continues.

Li Yannian quickly ordered everyone to retreat to the second line of defense.

After the battle ended, Li Yannian was holding a water bottle in his hand.

This water bottle was the one the communications officer kept handing to him.

The messenger kept telling him to drink more water.

But at that moment, the canteen had been hit by a bullet, and only a little water remained inside.

Li Yannian caught some of the water dripping from the kettle with his hand and dripped it onto the communications officer's chapped lips.

The communications officer has been killed!
Tears also welled up in Li Yannian's eyes.

"Xiao Gu, thank you. I'll leave the water here. You can go in peace."

There was no time to grieve. After finishing his speech, Li Yannian led everyone in saluting Xiao Gu, wiped away his tears, and continued preparing for battle.

He told the injured Han Dongnian to go back to the rear to rest, but Han Dongnian refused.

"Respect and trust are also a form of fighting power!"

These were the words Li Yannian had said to Han Dongnian, telling Han Dongnian to trust Luo Houcai and his soldiers.

Han Dongnian told Li Yannian, "You must believe in me too. I can still fight!"
On the other side, Chen Yanzong was looking at the words on a piece of paper, which read, "Marry a wife early and have many children."

Teng Guiqiao, the class monitor of Class 8, found him and wanted to entrust Xiao Andong to him.

Xiao Andong was a soldier under Teng Guiqiao.

In the entire company, Xiao Antong was the youngest.

Teng Guiqiao hoped that Xiao Andong could go back alive and marry Erniu, and this was also the wish of everyone in the Seventh Company.

If he were to sacrifice himself, it is hoped that Chen Yanzong could protect Xiao Andong.

Just then, the battle began again.

The enemy had gone completely berserk and had no intention of giving the soldiers a chance to catch their breath, launching continuous attacks.

The soldiers quickly threw themselves into the battle.

Teng Guiqiao stayed by Xiao Andong's side the whole time.

Just as Xiao Andong was about to rush out of the trench with the demolition charge, Teng Guiqiao pulled him down.

"You better live a good life!"

Teng Guiqiao's eyes were firm, and after saying those words, he rushed out of the trench without hesitation.

Enemy bullets struck him instantly.

But he did not fall; instead, he charged toward the enemy.

With a leap, he landed on top of three enemies, an explosion rang out, and blood mist filled the air.

Teng Guiqiao, sacrificed!

Little Anton shouted, "Squad leader!"

He held the gun and fired wildly.

But ahead, there were countless enemies.

The enemy's numbers far exceed the number of the soldiers.

Chen Yanzong protected Xiao Andong.

"Your death as class monitor was for nothing!"

Thanks to the soldiers' valiant fighting once again, the enemy's attack was repelled once more.

Zhang Shaojie found Li Yannian while he was resting.

Zhang Shaojie was wearing a U.S. military uniform.

Li Yannian asked in confusion, "Why are you dressed like that?"

Zhang Shaojie: "I've come up with a way to blow up the US military's ammunition depot. That way, the US military won't be able to attack us without artillery support."

"What can I do?"

"Wearing this uniform, I infiltrated the US military camp and blew up their ammunition depot."

"You're kidding me. You think you can sneak in dressed like that? Besides, what if you blow up the ammunition depot? How are you going to get out?"

Zhang Shaojie simply said, "Instructor, trust me. No one in our company knows artillery better than me. Besides, if the squad leader of the eighth squad can carry a demolition charge and charge into the enemy ranks, so can I."

Li Yannian remained silent.

He understood what Zhang Shaojie meant.

Zhang Shaojie was prepared to sacrifice himself.

He was willing to give his life so that everyone could defend the high ground.

In a house in Qincheng, Ma Fei stared at the computer screen, tears streaming down his face.

He didn't have this feeling at all when he was reading "The Nameless River".

Although "A Man of Both Literary and Martial Arts" doesn't have any deliberately sentimental scenes, it simply tells the story as it is, yet it still brings tears to the eyes. From the sixth episode onwards, Ma Fei's eyes never stopped filled with tears.

"These are our warriors!"

Soon, another battle broke out.

This time, Chen Yanzong and Xiao Andong stood together.

After being hit repeatedly by the enemy, Chen Yanzong was no longer able to hold the machine gun and fire.

He leaned against the trench, loading bullets for little Anton.

Little Anton held a machine gun and kept firing.

Chen Yanzong could no longer hold on.

He murmured, "I'm sorry, Father. Little Anton is alive."

He smiled and said, "Get married early and have lots of kids."

Xiao Andong was focused on attacking the enemy and had no time to pay attention to Chen Yanzong.

After the enemy was driven back again, Little Anton looked excitedly at Chen Yanzong.

Chen Yanzong, sacrificed!

He placed his hand on his chest, and Little Anton took out a piece of paper from it.

It reads, "Get married early and have many children."

At this moment, the childishness on Little Anton's face had disappeared.

He said firmly, "The squad leader and deputy squad leader have both sacrificed their lives. Now I will be in command!"

"Okay, I'll follow your orders!"

The entire class, including Xiao Antong, is now down to only three people!
On the front line, the soldiers were still fighting the enemy. When their guns ran out of bullets, they used bayonets and pickaxes, and finally drove the enemy out of the position.

When Xiao Andong found Li Yannian, Li Yannian was already exhausted, but he still managed to praise Xiao Andong a few times.

Upon learning of Chen Yanzong's sacrifice, Li Yannian fell silent.

He called out the name of Wang Yuwen, the clerk, only to find that Wang Yuwen had also sacrificed himself in the battle.

On the last page of the merit book, Wang Yuwen's own name was written.

He had already anticipated that he was going to die.

The remaining enemy forces on the front lines began to retreat, and Zhang Shaojie, dressed in American military uniform, mingled among them, his face covered with gauze.

Shortly afterward, the enemy's ammunition depot exploded, sending flames soaring into the sky.

Watching this scene, Li Yannian recited: "The wind howls, the Yi River is cold, the hero departs, never to return."

Zhang Shaojie, sacrificed!

Li Yannian opened the merit book and wrote Zhang Shaojie's name on it.

On the battlefield shrouded in night, Li Yannian muttered to himself, "Platoon Leader Zhang gave us half a day of peace with his own life."

During this brief period, the soldiers took a quick rest.

But soon, the enemy took advantage of the darkness to come up.

The battle has begun again!
After driving the enemy back, only ten men remained on the position.

Li Yannian ordered Xiao Andong to return to the camp with the battle log, but Xiao Andong didn't want to leave and wanted to fight alongside everyone.

Li Yannian said, "This contains the deeds of all the comrades who fought on Hill 346.6. We must not let the martyrs remain unknown!"

"Instructor, I'm not leaving. We'll die together."

Li Yannian laughed and said, "Who said we're going to die? We still have to live. We still have to attend your and Erniu's wedding. It's not just your class, it's the whole company's wish, isn't it?"

"Yes!"

"Yes, after I marry Erniu, I'll have a whole class of kids with her!"

Everyone laughed.

Xiao Antong still said, "Instructor, I'm not leaving."

"What did I just say? Obey orders!"

Little Anton had no choice but to leave.

After Xiao Antong left, Li Yannian said, "Comrades, now is the final moment. We, the Volunteer Army, will never be prisoners of war!"

The crowd shouted in unison, "We swear to live and die with this position!"

Li Yannian distributed the last box of grenades to everyone.

"Everyone should keep one. When we run out of bullets and grenades, if the enemy still doesn't retreat, we'll take this last grenade and charge into the enemy ranks. Do you have the guts?"

"Have!"

"We are definitely not cowards!"

"Don't worry, instructor, we're not afraid to die!"

Li Yannian: "Well done, all of you! Back to your fighting positions!"

Battalion support has arrived outside the blockade zone.

We are very close to completing the mission.

As the enemy launched another attack, the soldiers ran out of bullets one by one.

Li Yannian threw out the last grenade and took out the grenades he had saved for himself from his waist.

Just then, the sound of bugles came from behind.

A look of surprise appeared on Li Yannian's face.

The main force's counterattack has begun, and reinforcements have arrived!
In the end, Xiao Andong rushed to find Li Yannian, but was hit and knocked to the ground by the enemy lying on the ground.

The enemy was instantly killed by the soldiers.

Previously, Li Yannian had been very restrained in his emotions.

No matter what happened, he never lost his temper; instead, he fought calmly and collectedly.

The moment Xiao Andong fell to the ground, Li Yannian erupted in a rare outburst.

At this moment, Li Yannian, played by Lu Ran, revealed a fierce look in his eyes, his face covered in blood and ash.

"Fix bayonets! Don't let a single one escape! Slaughter them until their souls are scattered and they're running for their lives!"

By the end, his voice was practically screaming!
Li Yannian led his soldiers to charge at the enemy!
The image freezes on Li Yannian's final expression.

The video included some black-and-white overhead shots.

Li Yannian recounted the subsequent events, and the enemy returned to the negotiating table.

"We taught the enemy respect and reality through our heroic and tenacious fighting. At the same time, we also taught ourselves that the enemy only respects the reality that their opponents are strong enough. They have absolutely no respect for weak and vulnerable opponents."

When the scene changes again, Li Yannian is sitting on a hillside with a gun on his back.

His voice rang out as well.

"I am Li Yannian. On the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, I received the 'National Medal' as a special-class meritorious person and a first-class combat hero."

I know this medal wasn't awarded to me alone; I'm just a representative. The honor belongs to the millions of martyrs who sacrificed their lives.

In reality, Li Yannian is still alive.

When his photo in his green military uniform appeared on screen, viewers felt the aura of a combat hero emanating from him.

Modern tanks, airplanes, ships, and missiles also appeared in the footage.

This is who we are today!
In the end, they also gave little Anton an ending.

Little Anton did not die. He married Erniu and had eight children, all of whom were boys.

Little Anton named these children.

"The eldest brother is called Teng Shaoqiao, and the second brother is called Chen Shaozong..."

In the video, photos of Teng Guiqiao, Chen Yanzong, Zhang Shaojie, and others slide by.

Xiao An Dongqi's name is the name of these martyrs who sacrificed their lives.

At that moment, the song "Ode to Heroes" began to play.

As the end credits rolled, the audience listened to the song, but no one closed the playback page.

The singing slowly drifted into everyone's ears.

"Why does spring always reign on earth, and why do the lives of heroes bloom like flowers?"

When the song reached this point, the comments section erupted in excitement.

　Tomorrow is September 3rd, the 80th anniversary of the victory in the War of Resistance against Japan. The title of this chapter is also coincidentally: Commemorating our victory! Commemorating the martyrs who sacrificed their lives! Let everyone remember the enemy's cruelty; the struggle has never ended, and this history must not be forgotten!
