Chapter 126
"Gao Shenxing, if you have the courage, you can shoot," Li Zihan said coldly.
"Li Zihan, do you think I dare not?" Gao Shenxing said, and he really opened the mirror box head.
Seeing Gao Shenxing really pulled the nose away, Yang Dashu and Zhao Dahai immediately pulled out the box cannon. Dozens of remaining soldiers standing around also raised their rifles in their hands, and the black muzzles pointed at Gao Shenxing without exception.
"Don't be impulsive, brothers, don't be impulsive. If you have anything to say, you can say something to you." Li Shuangqi rushed up to smooth things over.
After Xu Shijiu left, Gao Shenxing was nominally the highest commander of the 19th Detachment, but in name, because Gao Shenxing was obsessed with special operations and always did not like to lead troops, except for a few people in the Fifth Brigade, he could not be ashamed of all the officers and soldiers of the 19th Detachment.
On the contrary, Li Zihan, because of training and leading troops to fight, had a high prestige in the minds of the officers and soldiers. There was originally a Lu Jian Gang who had a similar prestige to him. After the Lu Jian Gang committed suicide, Li Zihan had the highest prestige among the entire 19th Detachment except Xu Shijiu.
"Gao Shenxing, you shoot, you shoot." Li Zihan took his forehead to face Gao Shenxing's gun, and roared loudly while pushing forward.
Gao Shenxing pushed Li Zihan away, then pointed Yang Dashu with the gun, Zhao Dahai and all the remaining soldiers who pointed the gun at him, and said with a tragic expression: "Very good, very good, you all want to follow Li Zihan to be traitors, you all want to be traitors, right?"
"Sir Gao, we don't want to be traitors," Yang Dashu said coldly, "But we are soldiers, and soldiers should be obeying orders as their duty."
"You can obey your life?" Gao Shenxing glared and shouted, "You are just concerned about obeying the command of the superior, and there is no big fortune in your eyes?"
"Gao Shenxing, how did you know that I don't have a big feud?" Li Zihan retorted coldly, "What is great righteousness and what is great feud? Not knowing how to advance and retreat, just doing it recklessly is great feud? Just caring about personal reputation and completely disregarding the survival of the nation is great justice? You are wrong. Preserving vitality for the country is great feud. Preserving vitality for the nation is the real justice. What is a mere personal reputation? "
"Ha, what a sharp mouth. When a traitor comes to your mouth, he becomes noble in morality. What else can you do if you are not inclined to black and white? What else can you do if you are not right or wrong?" Gao Shenxing said angrily, "Don't think that everyone else is a fool, I, Gao Shenxing, are not a fool."
Li Zihan ignored Gao Shenxing, but turned around and stood on the big rock behind him. He shouted at the more than 500 remaining soldiers gathered over, "Brothers, I believe you all heard it just now. Yes, there is a difficult choice in front of us. On the one hand, Gu Xi’s personal reputation and fighting with the little Japanese to the end, while on the other hand, sacrificing his personal reputation and retaining vitality for the country and the nation. Now, I want to hear your opinions, where should our 19th Detachment go?"
There was a silence under the rock, and the eyes of more than 500 officers and soldiers focused on Li Zihan's face, with a complicated expression.
"I know that it is difficult and difficult to make this decision. No matter how difficult it is, we must make a choice." Li Zihan continued, "As a commander, I don't want to impose my will on you, but I think I have the responsibility to tell you the results after you make different choices.
If, I mean, if, if, if we choose to persist, then there is no doubt that we will definitely die in battle, and our personal reputation will be preserved. In the future, we can also enjoy the reputation of heroes in history books, but have you ever thought about it? If we die, there will be no hope for Longkou.
Even if the international situation changes in the future, for example, if the United States participates in the war, the people of Longkou will not have another chance to turn around.
However, if we choose to temporarily endure humiliation, we must bear the reputation of being a traitor. Even if we do, it is very likely that this stain will never be eradicated. However, after making such a choice, our armed force will be saved. If the international situation changes in the future, the people of Longkou will still have a chance to turn around."
After listening to Li Zihan's speech, more and more remaining soldiers began to waver. Gao Shenxing was anxious and climbed up the rock and stood beside Li Zihan, shouting loudly: "Brothers, don't listen to Li Zihan's nonsense. Traitors are traitors. Talents are also traitors if they say it out loud. Traitors are shameful. Even if we die, we will never be traitors. We must not be traitors."
Li Zihan looked at Gao Shenxing contemptuously, then turned to all the officers and soldiers below and said, "Brothers, I have finished my words. Now it is time for you to make a decision. Those who are willing to go with me, stand on my side, and those who are willing to fight with Chief Gao, please stand on his side."
"Come here, brothers, we would rather die in battle than be traitors. Come to my side, we should not be traitors, we should not be traitors." Gao Shenxing began to shout loudly to the remaining soldiers below, but unfortunately, only dozens of remaining soldiers stood on his side, and the remaining majority of the remaining soldiers stood on Li Zihan's side.
Such a result made Gao Shenxing unable to believe it. How could this be possible?
However, Gao Shenxing soon discovered that many officers and soldiers had not made a choice, including the Director of Intelligence Ye Ruxue, the Commander of the Sichuan Army Li Shuangkeng, and his Sichuan veteran. Gao Shenxing shouted: "Old Li, don't you want to be a traitor, do you also want to be a traitor, do you also want to be a traitor? And Director Ye, you are from the Military Control Commission. The responsibility of your Military Control Commission is to eliminate traitors. Could it be that you want to follow Li Zihan, right?"
Li Shuangqin ignored Gao Shenxing and looked up and asked Li Zihan: "Zihan, tell me the truth, is this what Lao Xu meant?"
"Of course this is what Lao Xu means." Li Zihan nodded decisively and said loudly, "If Lao Xu hadn't convinced me, I wouldn't have made such a bad move."
"If you want it, since it's Lao Xu's intention, then we have nothing to think about. We believe him." After Li Shuangqiang said that, he stood on Li Zihan without hesitation. Dozens of Sichuan veterans standing behind Li Shuangqiang followed him one after another.
Gao Shenxing's gaze dimmed. He looked at Ye Ruxue who had not made the final choice, but he no longer had any hope in his heart.
Ye Ruxue neither stood on Gao Shenxing nor Li Zihan's side. Instead, she looked at Li Zihan steadily and asked, "Sir Li, I just want to ask you one thing, have you made the decision after making it?
"Yes." Li Zihan nodded without hesitation and replied, "You have seen it too."
"Okay, then from now on, please be careful of your head. Our Military Commission will kill you at all costs and any means." After Ye Ruxue said that, she turned around and left, and the agents from the intelligence department behind her also left. Until this time, the rangers sent by Mao Renfeng from Chikou had not reached Longkou yet, so Ye Ruxue seemed to be alone.
(Split Line)
"Hey, Lao Gao, Gao Shenxing, what happened to your 19th Detachment?"
Seeing Gao Shenxing coming over in dismay, Liu Chang quickly struggled to sit up and asked.
Until now, Liu Chang and the six enemy work agents who were accompanying him were still tied up. Just now, he only saw the remaining soldiers of the 19th Detachment gathering there in batches, and also saw Li Zihan. Gao Shenxing stood on the big stone and quarreled fiercely, but due to the distance, he could not hear the content of the two quarrels clearly, and then he saw Li Zihan and most of the officers and soldiers leaving directly.
Gao Shenxing sat on the ground with a lonely expression and sighed, "It's gone, it's gone."
"It's gone? What's gone?" Liu Chang asked in surprise, "Who is gone? Xu Shijiu was killed?"
If Xu Shijiu is killed, that would be great news. Liu Chang dreamed that Xu Shijiu would die as soon as possible.
