The Thirty-Fifth Chapter of the Detailed Exposition

  Wang Yuanyi had lived for so many years, but he had never seen such intense shelling. His own blocking position was plowed twice, and the 5,000-man team now didn't even have a thousand left, with four thousand people dead due to his momentary impulse.

  Wang Yuanyi quietly forgot about the troops rushing towards him, he knew that expecting reinforcements to arrive had become an empty hope, and he was actually defeated by a young man who wasn't even thirty years old.

  Liu Yuan never left the command center from start to finish, and the enemy who charged into their own camp was not even considered an opponent in Liu Yuan's eyes, at most they were just a scout, a sacrifice.

  But the most exciting thing is that Du Yuming and Song Xilian, Du Yuming was under Sun Chuanfang's attack, the position was precarious, and it was possible to be broken through at any time. The brothers died one after another, and even his own chest was shot.

  Song Xilian, on the other hand, was excited to see his troops surround Wang Yuan's forces, watching as the three regiments continuously compressed the enemy, with soldiers either surrendering or being killed in resistance. He was genuinely thrilled, having accomplished something he had always dreamed of doing.

  The fierce battle lasted until dawn, when Wang Yuan-yi's reinforcements repeatedly charged onto Du Yuming's position. Du Yuming personally commanded the troops on the front line, gathering all the hand grenades into bundles and having them thrown out in one go, achieving an effect similar to artillery fire, repelling the enemy's most intense attack.

  Wang Yuanyi was tragically captured alive, Wang Yuanyi felt very innocent, not that he was afraid of death, but that he did not die successfully. In the last moment of his suicide, a bullet hit and damaged his own arm, Wang Yuanyi didn't even have the ability to commit suicide.

  He saw soldiers with red scarves everywhere, holding sharp bayonets and charging towards him. His own soldiers kept resisting, and the fresh red blood spilled all over the ground. As they died, their voices were filled with my endless sorrow. Until Wang Yuan-yi himself was captured alive and taken to Liu Yuan's command post.

  It was a young officer with eyes who caught himself, this young officer was very cautious, Wang Yuan Yi had already taken off his own general's uniform, but verified his identity because of a gold watch in his pocket.

  Du Yiming was very excited. From the clothes and demeanor of this person who had been captured by himself, it could be seen that this guy was definitely a big shot.

  So he brought the guy to Liu Yuan's command center in a hurry, where Liu Yuan and Zuo Quan were playing Go, killing each other back and forth. Song Xian was deeply impressed by the demeanor of his commander and chief of staff, and he didn't even mention that he had captured a big fish, instead quietly sitting on the side watching the two play Go.

  Zuo Quan's consensus is very strong, the cannon attack killed Liu Yuan and abandoned his car and horse, eating all of Liu Yuan's fighting pieces, but Liu Yuan still persisted.

  Liu Yuan heard Song Xilun's cough and seemed to see a hint of giving himself an excuse on Song Xilun's face.

  Liu Yuan smiled and said, "Did you win?"

  "Ah! We won!" Song Xilin nodded excitedly.

  Liu Yuan didn't even look at Song Xilian's captive and said, "You wait a moment, you've all won, I can't lose either."

  After finishing drinking, Zuo Qiuming killed him, and the chessboard was windy and cloudy. Liu Yuan insisted on using his own pawns to fight against Zuo Qiuming, and finally surrounded the city with four troops, defeating Zuo Qiuming.

  Zuo Quan looked at Liu Yuan in incredulity, "Auxiliary King, what's going on? You don't even have a single horse, how can you win?"

  Liu Yuan smiled and said, "The way of using troops is first and foremost about selecting generals. If the general is fierce then the soldiers will be fierce, if the general is brave then the soldiers will be brave."

  Just like this gentleman next to me, he has no talent and no use, but insists on being in the front line, and it's only natural that he was captured alive.

  Being taught by someone so young, Wang Yuanyi couldn't bear it, just about to say "you're just a kid", I bought a watch last year and all that, but then the young officer who lost the match said: "Then how did I lose? This isn't scientific, this doesn't make sense."

  Liu Yuan mysteriously smiled and said, "Because I have found a greater path, a path that everyone in the military has overlooked. This path will be our hope for success."

  Wang Yuanyi was also attracted by the young officer's words and perked up his ears to listen to what he had to say.

  "Don't be mysterious anymore, just say it." Zuo Quan said anxiously, he really wanted to know what his good friend was thinking.

  "The reason lies in this chessboard, General. Although you are formidable, there will also be times when you are overwhelmed by the vast ocean. As long as we can utilize the endless troops, this world will be ours. But where do these troops come from?" Liu Yuan asked back.

  "People." This time it was Song Xilian who answered, because he had secretly joined GCD, so there were a few more people's emotions.

  "Not bad, has everyone thought about it, why since the Eastern Campaign, we have been invincible in battle? Is our equipment good? Is our economy sufficient? Are our troops numerous? None of these are the reason. It's because the people support us." Liu Yuan sighed.

  Although Wang Yuanyi was captured, he wasn't tied up, so he had the opportunity to applaud Liu Yuan and sighed, "I heard that Chiang Kai-shek has a student named Liu Yuan who is good at both literature and martial arts, with the talent to assist the country. I always thought it was just hearsay, just a small child's boastful words. Today, what I saw indeed lives up to his reputation."

  Zuo Quan smiled and said, "So you think we are just a bunch of kids, but we actually consider you a major enemy. Wang Yuan-yi, male, born in 1883, graduated from Fujian Military Academy, participated in the Mukden Great War and Jiangxi Great War, helped Sun Chuan-fang take down Nanchang City without bloodshed, is one of Sun Chuan-fang's most famous wise generals. He is the commander-in-chief of this military operation."

  "Married with a son named Wang Yongqing who is studying in Beijing. His mother has passed away, his father is still alive and he is of good character, without any concubines."

  "No wonder the Southern Army has been winning all the way, I think it's not just me, but you also have information about other people, yet our understanding of you is pitifully little." Wang Yuanyi let out a long sigh.

  "Alright, take him away, we still have a battle to fight, and keeping him here is of no use." Liu Yuan said with a wave of his hand.

  "Boss, we can ask him about their troop deployment diagram, why take it away?" Song Xini asked in confusion.

  Liu Yuan shook his head and said, "Remember, never trust the intelligence of a captive. At his level, he is not even worth talking to. Let's just lock him up."

  "Yes," Song Xiqian replied with great regret.

  "Liu Yuan, I see you're very young. I want to say something to you. I hope you'll give me a chance." Wang Yuan Yi didn't get angry at Liu Yuan's words, but instead reminded him in a gentle tone. He had always appreciated Liu Yuan, especially after he was captured, and this appreciation only grew stronger.

  "Go ahead, I'm listening." Liu Yuan confidently glanced at Wang Yuanyi.

  From Liu Yuan's eyes, Wang Yuanyi seemed to see the shadow of his own youth, but Wang Yuanyi still shook his head and said, "Surrender, your information is not entirely correct. The commander-in-chief of this operation is not me, it's Mr. Jiang Fangzhen. If you don't surrender, your life may be gone. He won't give you a chance to live like I did in Nanchang."
