102: Chapter 102 The Last Spark

"It's better to rely on oneself than on others, but in times of war, the elderly, women, and children are truly the most helpless and vulnerable group."

"Refugees are all gathering here; aren't they afraid the Japanese Army will come knocking?"

"Why are there still so many civilians in Nanjing who haven't evacuated even though the fighting has already started?"

In the livestream room, the audience watched the CG, filled with confusion.

However, no one could answer their questions.

Wang Ye continued watching the CG.

He was still quite curious about this CG.

Through the CG, he was able to learn some information about this Battle of Nanjing.

"It was very quiet inside the church at this moment; one could hardly hear anyone speaking.

However, the silence of the church was soon interrupted by a sudden knock on the door.

A group of heavily made-up women.

They were desperately trying to open the main gate, clamoring to get inside. It turned out someone had said that foreigners were hiding in the church, and they were betting that the Japanese Army wouldn't dare to barge in and kill people, so they wanted to come in and seek refuge.

I witnessed all of this from across the street, and my heart was conflicted because this would inevitably attract the attention of the Japanese Army.

What was contradictory was that I urgently wanted to get the wounded Pusheng into the church. His injuries were very severe, and if he wasn't treated soon, I feared he wouldn't survive.

After thinking for a moment, I still decided to take the risk and send him in, but as soon as I reached the door, I was blocked.

After a bout of obstruction, I finally got in.

But after entering, I was mocked by this group of women; their sarcasm was like sharp knives stabbing straight at me.

They questioned why a soldier like me would appear in a refuge church just like civilians such as them.

I looked at them, my heart full of helplessness and bitterness.

Facing these women, I actually felt an unprecedented sense of powerlessness.

But I had no rebuttal, because I knew I shouldn't be here; I should be on the battlefield fighting the Japanese Army.

The Japanese Army is burning and killing throughout the city, searching for Chinese soldiers like me. If I stay here, I will implicate all these innocent people."

After watching this segment, Wang Ye paused the video again.

He felt a bit uncomfortable watching that last part.

The audience in the livestream room felt the same way.

"No way, those women were way too harsh, right? What right do they have to scold him?"

"If it weren't for the sacrifices of these soldiers, they might not even be alive right now."

Seeing this, Wang Ye quickly asked everyone not to get excited.

"Brothers, don't get excited yet; it hasn't finished playing, let's see what happens next."

Although he felt very uncomfortable after seeing that Training Corps soldier being scolded, he was a streamer, so he had to be careful with his words.

After saying this, he continued watching the CG.

The audience's attention was drawn back to the CG, and they stopped arguing.

"Just when I was at a loss for what to do, a girl named Yumuo handed me a pair of scissors, which resolved my awkwardness.

My only thought now is to let Pusheng have a warm place; as for whether he can survive, that will be up to fate."

On screen, Instructor Yu used the scissors to cut open the clothes on the chest of the soldier named Pusheng, revealing the bloody wound underneath.

When those women saw the bloody wound, they all turned their heads away, unable to bear the sight.

However, Instructor Yu paid no mind to them; he looked at the women and spoke slowly.

"I took him in on the road; he's just a child. Please find some cloth to bind his wound tightly and stop the bleeding. I entrust him to you all. Please!"

Having said this, Instructor Yu walked away without looking back.

"I know my destiny is to die on the battlefield, not to hide here and scrape out a living."

Seeing this, Wang Ye took a deep breath.

"Instructor Yu is a real man!"

"For real, I'm about to cry. How is a CG made so tear-jerking?"

"Is this Instructor Yu going to sacrifice himself? It feels like Instructor Yu is entrusting someone with his last will."

Many viewers in the livestream room were moved by this scene.

It must be said, this CG is very emotionally stirring.

Even Wang Ye felt like he was about to burst into tears while watching it.

"Just as I was about to leave the church, a sound of prayer suddenly reached my ears. I quietly went to the door to look. Perhaps because I thought of my fallen comrades, I was deeply touched, but seeing that everyone was unharmed, at this moment, I felt that every sacrifice was worth it.

I took out the shoes I had picked up on the battlefield from my bag, repeatedly wiped the dust off them, and then gently placed them at the door.

Just as I was leaving, the woman named Yumuo called out to me.

'We've never been tactful with our words; don't take what we said to heart.'

Yumuo looked at me apologetically, but I didn't take those words to heart.

Because what they said wasn't wrong.

As a Chinese soldier, dying on the battlefield is my only destiny.

It's just that I have selfish motives; I don't want Pusheng to die with me.

I hope he can survive and preserve the last spark of the Training Corps."

Wang Ye paused the CG for a moment.

He had heard the term Training Corps before.

Previously, when he was in the German-equipped Division, he had heard his comrades mention the Training Corps.

It was an even more elite army than the German-equipped Division, said to be a unit specializing in training officers.

Just as the audience was wondering why Wang Ye had paused, Wang Ye began to talk about the Training Corps.

"Brothers, do you know about the Training Corps mentioned in this CG?"

Wang Ye asked the audience.

There were quite a few people in the livestream room who knew about the Training Corps. Hearing Wang Ye's words, they flooded the chat with messages saying they knew.

On the internet, some people had already listed the ranking of the strongest Chinese units in the game based on the troops that appeared.

This Training Corps was ranked at the very top.

The Training Corps had also participated in the Battle of Shanghai.

Overall, their performance was good.

Especially their equipment, which was even better than that of the two German-equipped Divisions.

However, even so, they were still far behind the Japanese Army.

"My goodness, the CG just said there were only two of them left in the Training Corps; what does that mean?"

At this moment, a viewer realized this and quickly asked.

"It couldn't be that the Training Corps was wiped out in this battle, could it?"

"That must be it. The most elite unit was wiped out in this battle; was the fighting really that fierce?"

"No, how did they get wiped out? I'm a bit curious."

Wang Ye saw the audience's curiosity, and he was equally curious himself about how the Training Corps had been wiped out.

The Training Corps he knew of had over ten thousand men; to be wiped out in one battle.

This battlefield couldn't be even more brutal than the Battle of Shanghai, could it?

Carrying this curiosity, Wang Ye continued watching.

In the CG, the scene changed.

Instructor Yu left the church, but he didn't go far; instead, he found a building across from the church to stay in.

The monologue continued.

"Actually, I had the chance to leave, which would have preserved the last spark of the Training Corps.

But I knew the women and children in the church still needed me."
