"Back, back! If you don't step back, I will shoot."

Zhang Jie made every effort to prevent the influx of refugees, but those refugees were about to pass the barrier and enter Changshu City as if they were crazy.

Obviously, they were sure that the sentry did not dare to shoot, otherwise a few of them would have the courage to wave their fists at the soldiers with live ammunition? They would have gone to fuck the Japanese long ago.

The sentry was forced to retreat step by step, and even the wooden pole that blocked the road was broken.

At this time, it was in danger, but at this moment, a person suddenly emerged from the woods thirty meters away in front of the checkpoint.

The visitor laughed and said, "What are you all doing?"

When everyone heard the laughter of the visitor, everyone stopped moving and looked at the place where they were making their voices.

I saw a young man with a bald head and no hat, wearing a military uniform, crawled out of the woods with a creepy smile.

The visitor was wearing military uniforms. Because they were too far apart, they couldn't see clearly what color the military uniform was. However, the Japanese swords on their waists were clearly visible to the people.

Some timid saw the saber and shouted: "It's the Japanese, the Japanese are here!"

"Ah? The Japanese are here, let's run!"

"That sir, you guys go and fight the Japanese, let's run first!"

"Yes, you guys go and block the Japanese, let's run first!"

··············

The people were panicked, and just a suspected Japanese scared them to their legs and feet, rushing to escape after running away.

"Brothers are ready to fight and protect the fellow villagers."

Zhang Jie ordered, and let the villagers go first. They quickly entered the simple fortifications (just a dozen sacks of fortifications) and prepared for the battle.

But at this moment, agile figures in the forest jumped out one after another.

Zhang Jie was counting: "One two, one two, one two, one two,..."

The soldier on the side asked in confusion and said, "Sir, why do you count at most two?"

Zhang Jie smiled bitterly and said, "If you say too much, I'm afraid you will be afraid!"

Because in just a few seconds, no less than 200 people came out of the forest, all of which were guns and live ammunition. If they were Japanese, not to mention that they had only a few more than 30 people, even if they were ten times more, they would definitely not be the opponent of the other party.

Zhang Jie didn't know what to do, but he didn't want someone to come but shouted: "Brothers, don't shoot, you are your own people, hahaha!"

The visitor shouted loudly, and Zhang Jie carefully checked it, and felt that he was not very similar to the Japanese devils.

So Zhang Jie waved his hand and ordered everyone not to shoot without his orders, so as not to hurt his own people.

At the same time, the people who were preparing to escape stopped because of this when they heard that they were their own troops.

Zhang Jie straightened up and asked, "Who are you?"

At this time, a tall, black-faced young man replied: "This is our regiment, the Dragon Boat Festival commander of the 88th Division. Now the representative and chairman inspects various war zones. What are you doing here in a mess?"

The one who spoke and asked was the knife. The first one who showed his head from the woods was the Dragon Boat Festival.

The Dragon Boat Festival never wears a hat because it blocks his sight. And wearing a hat with a single finger can't determine anything. Even a German-style steel helmet was difficult to defend against bullets on the front at that time.

Although the German-style helmet was reinforced in the late World War II, it became heavier and no one would like to wear it if it was not necessary.

What's more, there is no reinforced German steel helmet in China.

So he simply didn't bring his Dragon Boat Festival, and he didn't even bring his military cap. Only his collar and epaulette can prove his identity.

Zhang Jie naturally knew the military rank, but when he saw that the Dragon Boat Festival was a regiment commander, he quickly saluted: "The 44th Division City Defense Brigade, Sergeant Platoon Commander Zhang Jie, have met the commander."

"Very good. You are all excellent. You dare to stand in front of the people and have not embarrassed us Chinese soldiers."

The Dragon Boat Festival loudly praised Zhang Jie and others were very happy, and they all raised their chests as if they were defeated by a rooster.

But at this moment, someone said disdainfully among the crowd of ordinary people: "What are you bragging about? You can't beat the Japanese? You can't even defend Changshu City?"

As soon as this voice came out, the common people immediately made doubts:

"That's right, so many troops can't even defend a single Shanghai."

"Yes, I also heard that it was the first mover. But in the end, the 20,000 to 30,000 troops could not defeat the more than 2,000 Japanese troops."

"I really don't know what the tax we pay for? I just keep such a bunch of wine bags?"

"It's embarrassing. I've said before that the Northeast Army is full of cordons, and I don't think they can harden much!"

"That's right, in the Battle of Songhu, we ran away, but we were not as fast as they retreated. How many people died tragically on the road?"

"Yes, the Japanese kill everyone they see. It's all their fault for being incompetent and not blocking the Japanese!"

·················

All the people complained, and some even spoke loudly, as if they were to listen to the Dragon Boat Festival and others.

Daozi couldn't suppress the fire after hearing this, and was about to argue with the people. But he didn't want to stop him.

"Hahaha! Everyone is right. What we eat when we serve in the army is military rations. That is what you ordinary people have accumulated for us. I am here, on behalf of the commission and on behalf of all the soldiers, and I apologize to all the villagers. I am sorry!"

After saying that, he bowed and bowed.

The people who vented their anger suddenly became soft. The words they said just now were entirely because their families were destroyed, and they were chased by the Japanese along the way, and their resentment in their hearts could not be eliminated.

But after thinking about it, although some officers from the troops did escape before the Japanese came, most of the soldiers still protected them with all their might.

People's hearts are full of flesh, so it's okay to vent after venting.

But I didn't expect that at this moment, two young people dressed in ordinary people looked at each other and said, "Don't listen to him, he is lying to us. Is it easy to fool us with ordinary people? We have stumped our relatives and lived a life of stagnation. Just because of his apologies, wouldn't we count on it?"

"Yes, this brother is right. My wife and children died at the hands of the Japanese. At that time, where were these soldiers?"

"Yes, you are responsible. You are going to escort us to a safe place."

"We want to have a meal, and some of us haven't had a meal for several days..."

···············

In just a short moment, the people's emotions that had just calmed down became turbulent again.

At this moment, even the platoon leader Zhang Jie had no choice. Facing the people of his country, would they really let them attack each other?...
