District 9

In a living town near the coastline of Lu District.

Sha Xuan was wearing casual clothes, leading a group of officers, and was sitting in a box in an entertainment city, having fun with a group of young ladies.

"Mr. Sha, why have you been coming out more and more recently?" A young and beautiful girl blinked her big shining eyes, and kept shaking Sha Xuan's throbbing heart.

"Come out as soon as you want." Sha Xuan played with the other person's chin with his hand and said lightly: "Isn't it good that I always take care of your business?"

"What you said is a bit hurtful? Is this a business between us? I regard you as the last man in my life...!"

"You mean love makes us look at each other?" Sha Xuan used to be a slut and made a lot of flirtatious remarks, but he has become much calmer in the past few years.

"Yes, didn't you say you would take me to see the frozen sea of ​​​​love when you have time?"

"Okay, let's go as soon as I say!"

"Liar, you are the chief officer, how could you leave just as you say!"

"Sir, you can't hold me down at all." Sha Xuan closed his eyes and shook his head.

While the two were flirting, an officer and six guards suddenly broke into the room and came to Sha Xuan.

"Brigadier Commander, there is an urgent telegram from the higher-ups asking you to return to the army."

"What's going on?" Sha Xuan asked.

The officer turned his head and glanced at the environment in the room. He looked embarrassed and did not say anything clearly.

Ten minutes later, downstairs.

Sha Xuan sat in the car, loosened his collar and asked, "What's wrong?"

"The evacuation list has come down. The superiors have ordered you to return to Nanhu immediately, and the troops will be under the command of the chief of staff." The officer whispered back: "There are many family members boarding the ship with you."

"Is that all?" Sha Xuan asked, belching wine.

"Yes, the boss is urging me very urgently."

"...!" Sha Xuan wiped the corner of his mouth and said in a vulgar voice: "What a fucking b*tch! You told the Military Intelligence Department that I was drinking and didn't have time!"

After saying that, Sha Xuan opened the car door and left, heading straight towards the entertainment city again.

The officer became anxious and shouted after him: "There is an order from above, you must evacuate...!"

"You bitch, you're annoying me, I'll have someone give you a bowel movement tonight!" Sha Xuan scolded teasingly, and walked into the entertainment city without looking back.

…

Luhuai, inside the Zhou Clan headquarters.

Zhou Xingli was sitting in the war room, having a meeting with the generals: "The opponent's forward corps has moved forward again, and there have been exchanges of fire with our army's defense zones in many areas... We still need to deploy elite direct troops to hold on to the front. Tomorrow Before five o'clock in the evening, the warships from EU Zone 1 will also enter the designated location for reinforcements!"

Everyone felt very uneasy after hearing this, fearing that Zhou Xingli would order a general at this time and send himself to the front line to command the defense. In that case, they might miss the best time to evacuate.

Just when everyone was silent, Zhou Xingli was about to start the roll call.

"Sha Zhongxing, please reinforce the front line of Lu District." Sha Zhongxing said suddenly.

"...!" Zhou Xingli was stunned when he heard the sound. He never expected that Sha Zhongxing, who was later recruited, could stand up at this time.

"I can't control other places, but Shoulu District can still contribute." Sha Zhongxing added.

"Lao Sha, you have really contributed a lot to the overall situation." Zhou Xingli nodded happily.

Sha Zhongxing didn't say a word, but with his leadership, the core generals of the Zhou Dynasty in the room were not easy to handle. Several generals took the lead and decided to continue to reinforce the front line.

After the meeting, Zhou Xingli was very grateful to Sha Zhongxing for supporting him at the meeting, so he ordered his adjutant to stop him and met with him again alone in the lounge.

The two of them sat on the sofa facing each other. Zhou Xingli personally reached out and poured a glass of water for Sha Zhongxing: "Old Sha, thank you very much for your support for me at the meeting. Now Zhou Xing has faced the most difficult time... Alas, thank you."

"It's nothing." Sha Zhongxing, who was already full of white hair, put his hands in his hands and replied: "When the Sha Clan was in the most difficult situation, the Zhou Clan also accepted us. The troops receive the wages of the Zhou Clan, so they should contribute at critical moments."

Zhou Xingli was a little startled when he heard this, because Sha Zhongxing's words revealed some sense of distance.

Sure enough, after Sha Zhongxing explained his reasons for supporting Zhou Xingli, he took the initiative to ask: "Commander Zhou, our Sha family has just received an evacuation notice...!"

"Yes, this is what I asked Li Bokang to arrange. The second batch of core generals will leave and go directly to the Chinese area separated from Xia Island. It gives us a lot of free space there!" Zhou Xingli nodded.

Sha Zhongxing pondered for a long time, looked at Zhou Xingli with clear eyes and said: "...I won't leave!"

"Not leaving?" Zhou Xingli was very surprised: "Lao Sha, do you have any ideas?"

"No, no, I don't have any ideas." Sha Zhongxing waved his hand and said very concisely: "The issue of civil war is about differences in political opinions, but evacuation to outer areas is beyond the scope of political differences."

Zhou Xingli looked very ugly when he heard this.

BOC looked at him frankly and calmly and said: "Commander Zhou, I don't mean to criticize anyone. Every political system has its own development direction. For leaders, many decisions are forced to make. This I understand that. But personally... I cannot accept retreating to the outer zone."

Zhou Xingli was silent.

"The Ninth District was defeated and Lao Shen died in battle. Before he died, he told me to take the remnants of Shensha to join the Zhou clan. I promised him at that time. This was a promise made between old comrades, and I must fulfill it. "Sha Zhongxing intervened and continued: "After we came to the Zhou Clan, we received the food and wages of the Zhou Clan, so naturally we have to stand on the Zhou Clan's side. This is unquestionable. But...but I really can't accept it twice. Defeated, and then retreated outside the district... My Sha family's mourning hall and ancestral graves are in the three major districts... I am old and can't walk anymore, so I don't want to bother anymore."

"Lao Sha, the large forces have withdrawn and the coalition forces have entered the city. Your situation...!"

"Whether Qin Yugong tries me to death or imprisons me for the rest of my life, I will accept it. After all, I am defeated." Sha Zhongxing said bluntly: "But I will never leave."

"Lao Sha...!"

"Commander Zhou, you don't need to persuade me on this matter." Sha Zhongxing waved his hand directly: "After our sand forces complete their garrison mission, they will surrender to the coalition forces, but it will definitely not affect the Zhou family's evacuation plan. Between us Our love will end when the city of Luhuai is destroyed."

Sha Zhongxing's words were decisive and firm. Zhou Xingli looked at his expression and knew that he could no longer persuade him.

In fact, for Zhou Xingli, among the three corps of Feng Shachen that were later incorporated, he liked the most and was most optimistic about the Sha corps, because their performance on the battlefield in the Lu District was much better than the other corps that were later incorporated. Yes, it is true that whoever eats the food will carry the gun. It is one thing not to win the battle. It is the result of the overall situation, but the attitude is very important.

Sha Zhongxing is reticent in the Zhou Clan headquarters, but he is not confused at critical moments and has never caused trouble within the Zhou Clan. Who wouldn't like such a general?

But it happened that such a general was unwilling to evacuate with the large army in the end!

Sha Zhongxing's work style fully proves one thing, that is, you must have the backbone and method of relying on others, instead of being like the Feng Corps, which seems to be very smart and avoids a lot of losses, but... in the end, at the top In his mind, he is just a cannon fodder.

Sha Zhongxing did not leave in the end. He worked in the Luhuai Environmental Sanitation Department for the rest of his life. In his later years, he spent his whole life sweeping the streets until he died of illness...

…

Early morning.

Ma Laoer took the phone and asked in a hurried tone: "Can we get in touch?! Are we missing someone we can talk to? Okay, I'll call the Fu family over!"
