The middle-aged man was the editor-in-chief of a well-known newspaper in Longdu. He specialized in the Dragon Kingdom's modern history and was a historian of some renown.
His shout immediately drew everyone's attention.
Xu Yaoyang hurried over and asked eagerly, "Editor Li, what did you remember? Who exactly is this Yue Qinhu?"
Editor Li did not answer immediately. Instead, he took out his phone and quickly typed "Jiangcheng Yue Qinhu" into the search bar.
Soon, news reports and related information popped up on the screen.
Editor Li stared fixedly at the screen. His breathing grew increasingly rapid, and his face flushed deeper and deeper!
By the end, his body had even begun trembling slightly from sheer excitement!
"It's... it's him! It really is him!"
Editor Li raised his head and looked at Yue Xiaofei nearby as though he were gazing at a deity, his voice trembling.
"Do you know who Yue Qinhu is?!"
"Yes, he was only a regimental commander!"
"But during the Defense of Jiangcheng, the Jiangcheng Garrison Regiment he commanded held the city alone for seven full days and nights against an elite army from Eastern Japan ten times its size!"
"The entire regiment fought to the last man! Not one surrendered, and not one retreated!"
"That battle blotted out the skies and left bodies strewn across the land! It showed the might of our Dragon Kingdom soldiers! It broke the backs of the invaders from Eagle Country!"
"After that battle, the Japanese invaders' General Ito personally admitted that Jiangcheng was his 'city of heartbreak,' one he could never conquer in his lifetime!"
By this point, Editor Li's excitement had reached its peak!
He pointed to a black-and-white photograph on his phone. It showed an antique plaque bearing four bold characters in sweeping calligraphy!
-Pillar of the Country!
