London, UK, 2:30 a.m. local time.

It was a dark night, and there seemed to be no stars in the sky. However, in a small town on the outskirts of London, in an ancient Scottish two-story building, there was still a faint light on.

This small building made of ancient Scottish stones is more like a miniature castle.

On the second floor, there was a small fire burning in the fireplace. A white-haired old man sat in front of the fireplace, looking at a radio on the small table in front of him. A broadcast was playing on the radio, and the old man checked it from time to time.

An English-Chinese translation dictionary.[

What is unbelievable is that what the old man listened to was actually Chinese radio.

The old man's name is Sengelman, and he is a veteran who lives alone.

The 69-year-old Sengerman was once an outstanding veteran and received many awards. In 1900, he landed in China under the leadership of General Seymour.

At that time, Sengerman was only 22 years old, in his prime, and a sergeant in the Royal Infantry Regiment.

Born on a small farm in northern Scotland, he was very timid and had no overseas stationing experience after joining the army. Due to the shortage of troops to invade China, recruits like him were also sent to warships and headed to China thousands of miles away.

At that time, their impression of China was still based on newspaper reports and folk rumors.

According to rumors, China is a very large country with abundant resources and a very large population. Although it is different from the gold everywhere boasted by Marco Polo, there is still a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry in their palaces and official residences.

Since the Opium War, Britain has been able to plunder huge amounts of wealth from this distant Far Eastern country every time. Many people yearn for the East, for the wealth there, and for doing arms business or opium business there.

There are also people who use various means to buy silk and porcelain from there and bring them back to England to make a lot of money. There are also people who do slave business there and deceive the uneducated, barbaric and backward Chinese people in the name of recruiting workers, and sell these to the UK.

The pigs deceived people into Southeast Asia and even the United States, letting them go to plantations, dig mines, and build railways, and let them live a life that was completely different from slaves.

However, the timid Sengerman was very different from the excitement when his comrades boarded the ship, because he had heard many rumors about the Chinese knowing magic. Coincidentally, there was a veteran near their farm who returned home by chance.

After arriving in England, I learned that the Chinese were good at climbing over walls. Once when the troops were stationed in a theater, they were attacked by the Chinese for no apparent reason, and their heads were cut off with their machetes and spears.

At that time, young Sengerman believed in religion and believed that the East was full of mysteries, so he was very scared before boarding the ship.

It wasn't until the fleet arrived in East India that he felt a little more settled. He saw that the Indians were humble and obedient under the rule of the British Empire, and did not dare to show any signs of resistance. The officers on the ship told them that the Chinese were just like the Indians.

, is a spineless nation, so don’t worry.

India's short stay minimized their unknown fear of China. Soon, as the situation became tense, the order to go to war was finally issued, and the fleet set off again.

They passed through Singapore, then along the Strait of Malacca, and finally along the coast of China all the way north to the mouth of Dagu.

Sitting on the boat, they quietly waited for the fleet to bombard Dagukou. Dagukou soon fell, and the coalition forces began to attack Tianjin.

As a result, shortly after advancing along the Tianjin Canal, they were intercepted by the Chinese Army in Langfang.

Sengerman has a very vivid memory of that battle. The enemy was not entirely a regular army. There were people who looked like they were good at martial arts and wielding broadswords. They were said to be Boxers. There were also Qing troops with long braided robes and even some wielding swords.

A commoner wearing a long cross.

The battle was hand-to-hand and broke out very quickly. The Chinese were outnumbered. Although there were almost no guns and only some shotguns, the coalition forces soon suffered casualties.

Sengerman is a rifleman. He only remembers that it seemed like there were Chinese people on all sides at that time. The only thing he could do was obey the orders of his superiors and fire mechanically.[

He didn't know how many Chinese he had killed, maybe a few, maybe none, because he clearly remembered being kicked to the ground by his boss and "shot" into the air by his scold.

Even looking back now, he felt scared. He and many of his comrades believed that if the other party was the same army with rifles or even cannons, then he would be scared, but not tremble. I don’t know why, seeing those

He felt a trembling fear when the Chinese rushed up to him brandishing a big sword and even tried to climb up from behind.

This nation has long been described as a zombie-like nation in newspaper reports, folk rumors, and even official speeches.

However, it is this kind of nation, their most pitiful and humble civilians, who dare to die to resist the invaders.

You know, Indians in a similar situation never dared to use swords to fight against their enemies. In Africa and many other places, the British were also colonizers, but the local people never dared to use broadswords and spears like the Chinese

People rushed up like this desperately.

They shouted slogans they could never understand, and then died in front of their positions.

Of course, Sengerman remembered even more that the Chinese who rushed to the position used their swords to hack to death three of his comrades, and he was stabbed in the arm.

Later, they captured several prisoners.

However, the prisoners did not surrender, and they cursed the invaders until their death.

From the translator, he knew what the Chinese man with a face filled with hatred, two eyes gouged out, and tears of blood and tears was saying in his crazy shout before being executed.

"Hahaha, eyes of the sky, eyes of the sky... I miss our vast China, an ancient civilization with five thousand years, where heroes have emerged from generation to generation. Now that the Manchus can ruin the fate of my Han Dynasty, one day, my Han people will be like this

The people of the Wutang Sect of the Han Dynasty pointed their spears at them, and all the barbarians surrendered, and all the nations came to court.

I saw it, I saw it!! Twenty years, twenty years! Twenty years later, a Chinese hero will stand up and change everything. He will make you tremble!

All the barbarians surrender, all the barbarians surrender, hahaha... It’s not that I won’t retaliate, the time has not yet come. You barbarians, in the future, under the might of my great Han Dynasty, don’t tremble, don’t tremble, haha, time travel novel, years later,

I am a good man again!! Hahaha..."

The farmer whose face was full of blood and tears when he was dying seemed to have seen the future at the cost of his last struggle before death.

The man's devil-like roar at that time was deeply reflected in Sengerman's mind, and he could not get rid of it. Nearly one-third of the entire coalition army suffered casualties, which was enough for him to see the Chinese people's so-called

The innermost resistance of the untouchables.

He was injured and returned to the battleship. Fortunately, he was sent to Singapore and returned to China soon after.

He applied for retirement. During this short trip to China, he discovered that he was still so timid. Even though he had a rifle in his hand that could kill the enemy, he could no longer pick it up and shoot at the Chinese or others.

.

After retiring, he became a librarian.

He began to study history and read the history related to the Chinese. Perhaps it was those crazy Chinese that made him have a strong interest in China.

Gradually, as he grew older, his understanding of history became deeper and deeper. He learned Chinese and could read and write Chinese characters. He also saw a China so majestic that it took his breath away.

What a huge ancient civilization empire, a civilization that has experienced countless brilliance, a civilization that has attracted all nations to come to court, and made the barbarians of the world surrender.

In terms of science and technology, culture, education, economic and social development, they have left the whole world far behind many times. Their wisdom is reflected in their great projects, their huge rule, and their intrigues and politics.

, reflected in the magnificent wars and in several achievements that put other countries in the world to shame.[

I don't know when, the farmer's cry before his death began to appear in his dream, and as he continued to pay attention, revolutions were breaking out in eastern China.

First, some people rose up against the Qing Dynasty, which was ruled by the Manchus and was rotten to the core.

Then, there were revolutionaries using Western methods, many careerists turned into warlords, and then a man named Sun Yat-sen founded a new country.

If it weren't for a special experience, Sengelman would even think that Sun Yat-sen was a person who might fulfill the farmer's prophecy.

It turned out that he met Sun Yat-sen once in the name of donating money. At that time, the Chinese revolutionary pioneer was fleeing to London. Sengerman donated 500 pounds to him and got the opportunity to have a long conversation with him.

As a result, Sengelman found that there was still a big gap between Sun Yat-sen and his imagination. Facts also proved that although Sun Yat-sen successfully disintegrated the Qing Dynasty, he only played a role in taking advantage of the trend and at the most suitable time.

, and did what was most in line with the people's wishes.

However, what happened in China afterwards left him stunned.

A warlord from southwestern China entered his field of vision. Soon, Sengelman did not even have time to investigate this warlord. His development was so rapid that it was unimaginable.

He first occupied the huge southwest China, a territory far larger than the United Kingdom.

Then, he defeated the British army in Burma and also defeated the French army.

Soon, he also defeated the British fleet at sea.

Then, his development was even more impressive. He actually defeated Chiang Kai-shek, defeated the Japanese, and then established a country.

"It's him! It's him!! Zhang Shusheng is the Chinese who can change China and the world in the last prophecy of the deceased."

After Zhang Shusheng defeated all the enemies in front of him, established the country, and even defeated the Japanese, Soviets, British, French, and Americans, the Chinese farmer who died that year appeared in Sengerman's mind.

His prediction came true.

After the Chinese atom exploded in Japan, Sengerman would have nightmares every night. He could not sleep even more after seeing the devil screaming before his death. He would listen to Eastern broadcasts on the radio every night.

And right now, no one knows that he is the first to hear this bad news in the entire UK.

"...conducted a successful ultra-long-range nuclear strike on Washington and Chicago...According to the latest news, the imperialist side will also immediately launch a nuclear strike on the United Kingdom..."

"They are coming! They are coming! The next one is London, the next one is London... They are coming for revenge... The Chinese are coming, they are coming for revenge, they are no longer the lowly Chinese, we are the lowly ones.

The British... they turned over..."

Sengerman stood up tremblingly and walked around the room. His whole brain was completely crazy. He wanted to atone for his sins, he wanted to be freed, and he wanted to leave all this and go to the embrace of the Lord.

"Only the Lord's embrace is safe, and only the Lord can deal with the Chinese... We were wrong..."

He first subconsciously sprinkled gasoline all over the house, then lit it, stood in the light of the fire, looking at the dark sky, "I seemed to see God, the Almighty Lord, here I come..."

In the blazing fire, in his field of vision, there seemed to be a particularly bright star in the dark starry sky in the distance. He believed that it was the Lord coming to guide him.
