Everything is ready, and the Independent League public memorial meeting will be held at dusk.

All the soldiers wore white sleeves, all the people who participated in the ceremony wore a small flower on their chests, and the families of the dead soldiers chose the way to pay tribute to their hometowns according to their own customs.

One thousand three hundred tombs will be filled with sunny side of this small hill three kilometers away from the Independent Group Base.

"Enling the Spirit" roared with host Liang Wenzhong.

Two people, whether it is the colonel or the second-class private, were all two people, solemnly holding the coffin up the mountain, from top to bottom, putting the coffin into the tomb, and then covering the flag of the independent army that had been prepared long ago.

Under the silent gaze of tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians, Liu Lang was alone, holding a coffin and stomping in a straight line. He gently placed the coffin into the largest tomb pit in the middle of the foot of the entire cemetery, and gently covered the coffin with his own hands.

All the soldiers were envious. Who had this privilege to let the regiment commander personally carry the spirit into the acupoint? If that brother knew that he would receive this honor after his death, he might have died with a smile!

Rejecting the help of others, Liu Lang filled the slightly wider tomb alone with the armed shovel, and then faced the tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians standing in front of him.

"Today is the day when the 1,342 martyrs of our Independent Group returned home. I suggest that we observe a three-minute silence for the 1,342 martyrs of our Independent Group."

After saying that, Liu Lang took off his military cap first, put it on his chest, and lowered his head solemnly.

All the officers and soldiers learned from Liu Lang's actions, took off their military caps and put them on their chests, and lowered their heads solemnly. The others present took off their hats on their heads, and those without hats bowed their heads.

Including the black man standing outside the crowd, he also took off his hat and expressed his respect to these foreign warriors.

Three minutes later...

"After the silence," Liu Lang raised his head and said loudly: "Our independent regiment fought in the ancient city. First, he wiped out the Fourth Brigade of the Black Hawk Imperial Army, and then defeated the Eighth Division of the Black Hawk Imperial Army with the cooperation of friendly forces, killing more than 20,000 enemies, and obtaining the greatest victory in the battle against foreign invaders since the founding of the kingdom. However, victory was not based on words, but on the sacrifice of the soldiers.

The cemetery behind me is the best proof. Without their sacrifice, there would be no national excitement.

However, sacrifice means that a mother loses her son, a wife loses her husband, and a child loses her father. At noon, I watched the family hold the coffins of the martyrs and cry loudly. Among them are the elderly, women, and children, and my heart hurts more than anyone else. Because they are also my brothers, one who trains on the training ground, one eats in the pot, and one who fights in the trenches.

My Independent Regiment walked out of this gate and stepped onto the battlefield 2,500 people, and finally got back by themselves, but more than 1,100 people, and many people lost their legs, arms, and eyes. They could no longer step onto the battlefield with guns.

As the highest commander of the Independent Corps, my heart is as sad as their relatives.

But, are we going to stay away from the battlefield because of grief? No, I will tell you loudly, tell everyone, never. Because, my brothers and I, not just sons, husbands, fathers, we are also kingdoms. When the Black Hawk Imperial Army lifted their butcher knives again, aimed at our nation, we will still stand on our guns and step on the battlefield where we fight against the Black Hawk Imperial Army without hesitation.

If we are afraid of the grief of our family and dare not step onto the battlefield, when the Black Hawk Imperial Army's butcher knife pointed at us and our family, who will resist you and me? No, when everyone chooses to retreat, then no one will protect this country and this nation. We can only move forward and face the Black Hawk Imperial Army's blade, even if we sacrifice, even if we can never touch the child's face."

"Go forward, move forward, move forward." The soldiers were infected by Liu Lang's words, raised their arms and shouted.

Li Shi and his students, standing in the crowd, also raised their arms high and shouted in tears.

County Magistrate Wang and Zhan Chengfang also raised their arms high and shouted in unison like the common people around them.

This may also be the first time that two old foxes who have been bureaucrats have lost their composure like this, and shouted with the mud legs they have always looked down upon.

Regardless of whether Liu Lang was performing a show or not, the cemetery where 1,300 people were buried showed that they did not cherish their lives, but were never afraid to sacrifice their lives. Only such an army was the strongest army in the kingdom.

A huge sound echoed in the valley.

After the sound of the sound, Liu Lang continued, "You may be puzzled before you have this honor, who will be buried alone in this tomb and be personally helped by me, the chief of the group, and I can tell you who is the person in the coffin.

They were bandits that the people of Tongzhou, Beiqiu, hated to the core of the people of Beiqiu."

The crowd became slightly restless.

"Yes, half a year ago, they were bandits from Heilongshan. After the battle in Heilongshan, they became prisoners of war in my Independent Regiment, perhaps to forgive their crimes, perhaps to their family, or perhaps to survive, they joined the Independent Regiment Company and became a member of my Independent Regiment.

You may wonder why I am not talking about him, they are because, in that coffin, there are not one person, but seven people.

Yes, in the battle of Gushan, 206 people from the Death Company trapped Gushan, resisted the revolving attacks of more than 2,000 Black Hawk Imperial Army and killed more than 700 Black Hawk Imperial Army. However, under the bombardment of dozens of heavy artillery of the Black Hawk Imperial Army, they were completely out of ammunition and food, and all fortifications were destroyed. With no choice, twenty-eight people brought thirty-four seriously injured people into the tunnel. However, in order to maximize the killing of the Black Hawk Imperial Army, seven wounded soldiers under the leadership of company commander Zhou Shiyu, took on the task of blocking the enemy.

It is said to be blocking the enemy, and it is also to lure the enemy. I still remember the last telegram sent to me by the Company Commander Zhou Shiyu: Fire artillery at our position. Yes, that evening, the artillery company of our Independent Regiment fired with all its might for the first time, but our army's artillery shells did not blow towards the enemy's position, but towards my soldiers. Because there, in addition to our 8 people, there were hundreds of Black Hawk Imperial Army that had already rushed into our position. The 8 warriors demonstrated the indomitable nation with the spirit of firing at me.

As Liu Xueyuan reporter wrote, that evening was the brightest fireworks I have ever seen. The fireworks were the spiritual light of the 8 death-death warriors who lived in the world. Hundreds of Black Hawk Imperial Army were all turned into ashes under our artillery fire, and the eight warriors on our side, except for the company commander Zhou Shiyu, who survived by chance, the other seven died.

After the war, our independent regiment organized a man to restrain the bodies of the soldiers, but we could not find all the seven of them. Their flesh and blood had already been integrated with the positions they had fought with, and the land of our kingdom, and it was difficult to distinguish them.
