Chapter 101: Jinling mourns

ps: Please ask for recommendation votes and collections, which is also very important

"Company Commander Sun, after the blocking mission is completed, should you break through with us or evacuate yourself?" Leng Feng ordered people to call Company Commander Sun, who stayed in the 87th Division as the blocking mission.

"Captain Leng, Adjutant Ma has already said that everything in the ministry obeys your command." Corps Sun knew that it was difficult to stop the powerful Japanese corps with his strength, and he must rely on the Second Regiment of the Teaching Corps.

"Since that's the case, will you do if I order you to give up your position?"

"Give up the position, Chief Leng, will you stop the Japanese army?"

"No, the task of blocking the Japanese army will be completed by others. Your company and most of my regiment will be ready to break through."

"Now?" Captain Sun was shocked.

"Of course not. When is the time to break through, we will have a detailed plan. If you agree, we will tell the plan frankly. If you disagree, you can also act with me. You will not participate in our breakout plan."

"Don't Chief Leng personally direct the breakout?"

"The breakout plan is directed by Detective Commander Luo and Director Qin. My mission is to block the palace and the rear of the palace. I will not leave Nanjing for the time being?" Leng Feng said solemnly.

"I..." Company Commander Sun hesitated. Although he accepted Leng Feng's command, he also received orders to block the Japanese army. Once the task is completed, he will leave.

"The 87th Division has been leaving for almost two hours. Your blocking mission has been completed. If you want to chase your old army, we will not stop you." Luo Yufeng said slowly.

"Captain Leng, I'm sorry, I want to chase my old army." After a difficult psychological struggle, Company Commander Sun finally chose to chase his old army.

"Adminton Ma told me that they should board the boat at the Coal Port and then retreat to Jiangbei." Leng Feng sighed slightly. The road was chosen by himself, and no one could stop it.

"Thank you, Chief Leng." Corps Sun faced Leng Feng, saluted and said in a solemn manner.

"Take care all the way" Leng Feng saluted a military salute.

Company Commander Sun and his company retreated from the city wall position and chased the old troops.

"There are not so many ships in the coal terminal. I really don't understand why he chose to take this path?"

"People subconsciously choose the easiest path. But they don't know that the easiest one is the most difficult one. It seems that the most difficult one is the most difficult one. We choose to break through, but the survival rate is the highest." Leng Feng sighed.

"Yes. I hope Company Commander Sun and the others are lucky." Qin Yankun sighed regretfully. Although they could keep the 87th Division company, they might not appreciate it. They might even feel that the teaching corps took this opportunity to swallow up the company.

No one wants to do such things that are thankless and affect friendly relations.

What's more, no one knows what path ahead now. If you can't be the same, it's better to go your own way.

"It's almost time, Lao Luo and Lao Qin, let's separate for the time being," Leng Feng looked at his watch and said.

"Lao Leng, take care of yourself." Luo Yufeng took a step forward, held Leng Feng's hands tightly, and said in emotion.

"Take care of yourself"

"You are active underground, don't make too loud noises. Persist until tomorrow night. I estimate that the Japanese army will enter the city on a large scale tomorrow afternoon, so that the Japanese army will enter the city. Their siege of Nanjing City will relax. It is the best time to break through tomorrow night," Leng Feng reminded.

"When the Japanese army celebrated their victory, they suddenly launched a breakthrough and had a high chance of rushing out," said Luo Yufeng.

"After rushing out, you must move quickly towards Qinglong Mountain. After rushing out, turn towards Langxi Guangde. The Japanese army's garrison is weak, and you can even rest and rush on the road." Leng Feng said.

"Where are you, you can't keep fighting in Nanjing again, right?"

"I will judge the situation based on the situation and withdraw from Nanjing at any time and then go north," Leng Feng said.

"Go to the north, what are you doing?"

"I judge that there will be a big battle in Xuzhou area, and I plan to join in the fun." Leng Feng smiled.

Luo Yufeng and Qin Yankun laughed, thinking Leng Feng was joking.

"If you escape from danger and settle the wounded, you can also go north to find me. Don't we have a radio station, we can contact us at any time. Just remember the contact code. If you can't contact us every night at twelve o'clock or twelve o'clock, then you will be twelve o'clock the next day." Leng Feng said.

"I understand, don't worry. When we break out of the encirclement and settle the wounded, we will go north to meet you. If we need it, we can also pick you up from Nanjing City."

"No, it's not too difficult for me to come out of Nanjing City." Leng Feng smiled slightly, and he had already thought about the way out.

"You have planned it long ago?"

"Of course, if it weren't like this, how could I stay and deal with the Japanese?" Leng Feng said with a smile.

"If I had known this was the case, I would..."

"Even if there is a safe retreat, it is very dangerous. Moreover, I don't want more people to know, otherwise it will shake the morale of the army." Leng Feng said seriously.

"I understand, since that's the case, we are relieved."

Seeing Luo Yufeng and other officers and soldiers from the Second Regiment enter the secret passage, Leng Feng ordered the entrance to the secret passage to collapse and another exit, and then led his people to continue to the city wall position, confronting the Japanese army through a moat.

In the direction of the Zhonghua Gate, the battle between the defenders and the Japanese army continued, and the two sides seemed to be in a stalemate.

Even if the Japanese army broke through the city wall position, it would be extremely difficult for them to advance in depth at this moment.

First of all, their soldiers had been fighting for a day and were very tired. They changed a group of soldiers to come up and became familiar with the environment. This was in the dark, not during the day, and the Japanese commanders did not dare to advance easily.

Therefore, the two sides entered a strange stalemate stage, but this will definitely not last long. Once dawn, the Japanese army will definitely discover the reality of the defenders. At that time, it will definitely be the time when the Japanese army launches a large-scale attack.

There is only Leng Feng's reorganized battalion and Yasha squad on the Guanghua Gate position. On the left is Wang Yaowu's 51st Division, and on the right is Ye Zhao's troops of the 66th Army of the Guangdong Army.

The Guangdong army also began to prepare for breaking through. From Tongji Gate to Guanghua Gate and then to Zhongshan Gate, more than 300 people were placed on the long city wall position. These troops were empty and could be played with empty city plans.

Leng Feng knew that he was dancing on the tip of a knife, and that he was also discovered by the Japanese army. The two or three hundred people under his command could not stop him.

The moat under the night sky was piled up on the shore in thousands of attempts, and clusters of flames on the bodies were shaking miserably in the cold wind.

Half is water and half is blood. The blood is about to solidify, and the river water no longer flows.

At this moment, the road to Nanjing Xiaguan Wharf at Yijiangmen was crowded with people fleeing Nanjing City, with retreating defenders and fleeing people.

At this time, the door holes on both sides of Yijiang Gate had been blocked, leaving only a small path in the middle to enter and exit, and a barbed wire was also pulled up.

The 36th Division has not received the order to retreat, and stopping all the defeated soldiers is the last order they received.

So a fierce conflict broke out.

The soldiers who had long lost their fighting spirit rushed up to the city wall regardless of their own efforts. They tried every means to climb up, tore their clothes into strips and hung them on the trunk of the city gate, and climbed up. Many people fell to death under the city wall because they could not bear the weight.

In order to reduce weight, the soldiers threw away their weapons and ammunition, and discarded rifles, bullets, cars, trucks, etc. could be seen everywhere on the road.

The ground was filled with burnt corpses, scrapped cars and armored vehicles that blocked the road.

The defenders who escaped to Xiaguan by chance had no time to be glad for their fate, and a more tragic situation was set in front of them.

On the surface of the river, it was pitch black, with a vast river water, and there were three feet of waves without wind, making waves, rolling up a scarlet blood foam, which was disgusting.

The retreating officers and soldiers thought that when they arrived by the river, a large number of ships picked them up to the north of the Yangtze River, but in fact, there was no ship on the river. It was empty, with only the tall black shadows of Japanese warships on the river several kilometers away.

Some people cried loudly, some were sitting by the river, staring at the river water in a daze, and some were desperate, and they jumped off the cold and biting river water with a wooden board in their arms.

A big wave came over and was caught in the bottom of the river and never saw anyone coming up again.

An officer hired a small boat at a high price. Before he could get on the boat, dozens of people flocked to the river. The small wooden boat was squeezed out and was trembling towards the north of the river. However, before the boat could reach the middle of the river, it had already sunk into the river...

There were only two ferry boats at Xiaguan Wharf. Once they were docked, countless people rushed up and grabbed them tightly. The people on the boat angrily scolded the crowd on the shore who did not allow them to drive the boat, and those with weapons even shot at unarmed people.

The boat finally started, and more people climbed the edge of the boat tightly. As the ferry sailed into the river, more fell into the water and were eventually swallowed up by the surging river water.

The scattered soldiers and wounded soldiers who scattered from the front line, the comrades and supplies in the rear, squeezed the road along the river so that it was blocked. Japanese ships on the river in the distance kept firing over from machine guns. Flares were piqued in the sky, and the shells were down with a sharp scream.

Dull explosions came one after another, cracked fireballs exploded one after another, and thick black smoke rose up.

The entire riverside was in chaos and there was no order at all.

Zhou Lan, the chief garrison commander, detained a small steamer for transporting supplies, which was also his preparations for the future.

Tang Mengxiao and other generals from the garrison commander came and hurriedly boarded the small steamer and headed towards Jiangbei. Behind them were more than 100,000 soldiers guarding the city.

Where will their destiny go?

The mayor of Nanjing City, the commander of the security guard, Xiao Shanling resolutely stayed to command the retreat by the river, and did not retreat to Jiangbei with the army.

The city of Nanjing was even more chaotic, and the people ran to the international security zone in order to seek some protection.

The defeated soldiers who threw away their weapons were blocked and unable to get out of the city, and they also squeezed into the international security zone with the refugees.

For a time, the number of people in the international security zone doubled, and the logistics was too heavy to bear.

At this time, the International Security Commission could no longer find any government officials who could help them place and provide food.

The Nanjing garrison chief's headquarters burned a fire, and Tang Mengxiao's mansion in Baiziting was missing. Many important military and government facilities in the city ignited raging fires.

From the beginning, no one hoped that these miscellaneous troops could defend Nanjing, but no one expected that they would collapse so quickly.

In just a few days, from the periphery to Fukuo, and then to the city walls, the tragic battle to defend the capital ended in a hurry.

Tonight, the entire Jinling City is crying to be continued.
