Rebirth of The Deer and the Cauldron, Wei Xiaobao Becomes a God

After hearing this number, Su You's eyes widened and he couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's so far away! I really hope that in the future I will have the opportunity to lead our brave and fearless army to attack the lair of the Western devils and teach these bastards a severe lesson!"

President He patted Xiao You on the shoulder and comforted him, "Don't worry, there will definitely be such an opportunity."

"Stand at attention - salute"

At this time, the officer on duty at the gate of the Governor's Mansion saw the commander-in-chief Wei Xiaobao coming to the Governor's Mansion, and immediately gave an order for the soldiers to put down their work and salute Wei Xiaobao.

"Reporting to the commander-in-chief, the special forces company of the first brigade and first regiment of the first division of the Tiandi Revolutionary Army is clearing out the Governor's Office. Please give instructions!"

"Keep cleaning!" said Wei Xiaobao.

"Yes!" the officer replied.

Xiao You also heard the voice and hurriedly brought President He out to greet Wei Xiaobao.

"Commander-in-chief, you are here!" Xiao You greeted.

"What is the current situation of the troops?"

After hearing the order, Xiao You responded loudly without hesitation: "Report to the commander-in-chief, our army has now successfully occupied the city of Manila. The Spanish governor and some merchants took advantage of the chaos to flee to the northern part of Luzon Island. But please rest assured, commander-in-chief, all armed forces in the city have been completely disarmed by us."

Wei Xiaobao nodded slightly, indicating that he was very satisfied with the news. He praised with a smile: "Well, you did a great job. You are all the pride of our army."

Then, he turned his gaze to the vigorous old man standing next to Xiao You and asked curiously, "Who is this old man?"

Xiao You hurriedly stepped forward and replied respectfully: "Report to the commander-in-chief, this is the president of the Luzon Chinese community, Mr. He Tianxiang!"

Upon hearing this, Wei Xiaobao's face immediately showed joy. He quickly stepped forward and said enthusiastically: "It turns out to be President He. I have heard of your great name for a long time. Seeing you today, I find that you are indeed worthy of your reputation. Nice to meet you!"

As he said this, he saluted President He solemnly.

Chairman He was deeply moved when he saw this. While speaking excitedly, he was about to kneel down, ready to perform the great ceremony between a monarch and his subject to Wei Xiaobao.

He said in a trembling voice: "I, He Tianxiang, pay my respects to the Grand Commander! It is a great honor to see the Grand Commander personally leading the army to Luzon to rescue us Chinese from the dire situation! The Grand Commander is the second parent of the Chinese in Luzon."

After saying this, President He knelt down to pay homage.

Wei Xiaobao was quick to reach out and hold up President He who was about to kneel down, saying repeatedly: "Please stand up quickly, President He. Such a generous gift is really embarrassing for a junior. Please don't do it!"

Chairman He insisted on saluting. He said sincerely, "General, please don't refuse. You have led the brave and fearless soldiers to come here from afar. You have not only driven away the foreigners who have oppressed us for many years, but also given us hope to live a stable life again. For all these, you deserve this salute from me!"

"Chairman He, this is a new era. The old custom of kneeling and kowtowing is no longer popular. I appreciate your kindness." Wei Xiaobao refused firmly.

Seeing that Wei Xiaobao was so persistent, President He no longer forced him to kneel down.

He was seen holding Wei Xiaobao's hands tightly with great emotion, his voice trembling slightly with excitement:

"Great Commander! Ever since those Spaniards invaded Luzon, we Chinese have been plunged into dire straits! In the past one hundred years, hundreds of thousands of our compatriots have died tragically at their hands."

"But today is different. The Tiandi Army has arrived here like a divine army descending from the sky. The hard days for us Chinese are finally over! Those Western devils who have been riding on our heads and bullying us have finally been completely wiped out! You are simply the savior and benefactor of all Chinese people!"

Wei Xiaobao couldn't help but feel sad and guilty when listening to President He's affectionate words. He quickly comforted him, "President He, I'm really sorry. We came too late and made everyone suffer so much..."

Before he finished speaking, He Tianxiang seemed to be unable to suppress the surging emotions in his heart any longer. Tears welled up in his eyes and slid down his weathered cheeks.

It is said that men don't shed tears easily, but that's only because the softest part of their hearts has not been touched.

This century-long history of bitterness and blood and tears has come to an end today. How could this old man, who led the Chinese people in tenaciously fighting the Spanish invaders throughout his life, not be extremely excited?

Wei Xiaobao looked at He Tianxiang quietly. After his excitement gradually calmed down, he slowly spoke again: "Chairman He, now that the situation has been determined, how should we deal with these Spaniards? I would like to hear your opinion."

He Tianxiang's face was filled with rage, his chest rising and falling violently with anger. He gritted his teeth and roared indignantly: "Blood debt must be paid with blood! These abominable guys are a group of unscrupulous robbers and extremely cruel butchers! Only by killing them all can I dispel the hatred in my heart!"

Wei Xiaobao nodded slightly, indicating that he understood President He's feelings at the moment, but he still analyzed calmly:

"President He is absolutely right. The heinous crimes committed by these Spaniards against the Chinese in Luzon are truly outrageous. They must pay the price."

"However, they are just uncivilized barbarians after all. And our Chinese nation has a glorious and splendid civilization history that stretches back five thousand years!"

"If we just keep on fighting back with tooth for eye and stopping bleeding with blood, I'm afraid the hatred between us will only grow deeper and will never be resolved."

After hearing this, President He's expression eased a little, but he still looked at Wei Xiaobao firmly and asked, "So, according to your opinion, Commander-in-Chief, how should we deal with these criminals?"

Wei Xiaobao took a deep breath and then answered solemnly: "My idea is to make them all serve lifelong hard labor."

"Men were sent to the mountains to mine and cut wood, while women were arranged to grow rice and other crops in the fields."

"Let them spend the rest of their lives redeeming the sins they have committed! This way, we can punish them while also allowing them to be used by us and create a certain value."

"I wonder what President He thinks?"

"Great! This is a good idea, Commander-in-Chief. It will be more useful to let them create wealth for us than to kill them. But these Westerners have always been strong and I am afraid they will not obey discipline."

"That's fine. You can form an autonomous army, and our army will be fully responsible for this, including training and the supply of weapons." Wei Xiaobao said with a smile, his tone firm and full of confidence.
