Chapter 1: The Fall of Nanjing
On September 18, 1931, the Japanese army provoked the September 18 Incident, occupied Northeast China, and single-handedly concocted the puppet "Manchukuo". Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 After occupying Northeast China, the Japanese army extended its claws to North China and plotted to instigate "North China Autonomy". In June 1936, the Emperor of Japan approved the new "Imperial National Defense Policy" and the "Program for the Use of Troops", openly declaring that he would realize his ambition to control the East Asian continent and the western Pacific Ocean, and eventually dominate the world. On 7 August, Japan's five-phase meeting adopted the "National Policy Benchmark," which specifically laid down a strategic plan for invading China, invading the Soviet Union, and waiting for the opportunity to advance southward. At the same time, according to the 1936 plan for the invasion of China, the plan for the invasion of China in 1937 was formulated. Beginning in May 1936, Japan successively increased its troops in North China, constantly creating incidents, and conducting frequent military exercises, and the situation in North China became increasingly severe. At that time, the Chinese defenders guarding the Pingjin area were the 29th Army, and the commander Song Zheyuan was also the chairman of the Jicha Political Affairs Committee.
On the night of July 7, 1937, when the Japanese army was exercising near the Lugou Bridge in the southwest of Beiping, they asked to enter Wanping County to search under the pretext that a soldier was "missing", but the 29th Army of the Chinese defenders sternly refused. The Japanese then opened fire on the Chinese defenders and shelled the city of Wanping. The 29th Army rose up to resist. This is the 77 Incident that shocked China and the world, also known as the Lugou Bridge Incident. The July 7 Incident was the beginning of the Japanese imperialists' all-out war of aggression against China.
On December 4, 1937, the Japanese army officially launched an attack on Nanjing, attacking the periphery of Nanjing, occupying the periphery of Nanjing on December 8, and on December 10, the Japanese army launched an attack on the whole line of Nanjing. A total of more than 100,000 troops were sent to counterattack the Japanese army, and the SS Regiment of the 21st Division of the National Revolutionary Army was ordered to block the Japanese army in Tangshan......
"Boom......" a shell fell next to the command post, I closed my diary, went to the trench to watch our officers and men resist the fierce attack of the Japanese army, has been fighting for two days and two nights, three months ago I received a call from the military department, saying that the Japanese army has officially launched a war against our country, I packed my luggage and left the United States West Point Military Academy, returned to China, before going to the United States, the school shook hands and ordered to go to the Berlin Army Military Academy in Germany to study special operations, and then went to the United States West Point Military Academy to study naval operations and large corps operations. Now I can finally return to my hometown. After returning to China, I served as the deputy commander of the SS Regiment of the 21st Division of the National Revolutionary Army, and two days ago the regiment commander was killed by enemy snipers in the Battle of Liyang. And today, the Japanese attack is more fierce than ever, I guess, the Japanese army's right army to break through Jurong, Moling Pass, this made the consensus of the middle route army that I blocked more fierce, looking at the wounded and dead bodies everywhere in the trenches, looking at the surrounding starvation, a fire rose in my heart, mixed with anger, war, and lust. I will defend Nanjing to the death and stop the Japanese army.
"Commander...... Head...... The command called: "My guard Xiwa ran over panting, and wanted me to stand up and salute.
"Read." At this point, I didn't want to talk anymore......
"The left, center, and right route armies of the Japanese army wanted our army to launch a general offensive, and now Jurong, Moling Pass, Chunhua Town, Longtan and other places have also been lost.
"******, what does the chief of staff think? Retreat to the re-entrenchment position?! We don't go on a counteroffensive, we don't break through, but we have to retreat? How did he become chief of staff? When I heard the news, I roared angrily: "What about our air force? And what about our artillery? Inform the headquarters to give me artillery coverage to the Japanese near Tangshan, so that I can break through, and after the breakthrough, I will lead people to carry out a harassment battle in the rear of the Japanese army, so as to reduce the burden on Nanjing. ”
"Captain! Wake up, our air force has long since died on land, and our artillery has long since retreated to the city of Nanjing, and no one will give us reinforcements. Commander, give the order" Xiwa cried and said to me, although I knew that the defeat was decided, but I was still unwilling to face it: "No, don't retreat, others are afraid of death, I am not afraid." I grabbed Xiwa by the shoulders and said to him, "Xiwa, are you afraid of death?" ”
"Commander, I'm not afraid, it's my honor for Xiwa to follow you, my life is given by the head of the regiment, I'm not afraid." Xiwa wiped away his tears with his dirty sleeve: "Commander, I listen to you, as long as you say hold the position, Xiwa will hold it even if she dies." ”
Looking at Xiwa's firm eyes, I settled down and said: "The Northeast has fallen, we have coaxed, we have retreated from the Lugou Bridge Incident, I will not be cowardly today, notify the signal corps to cut off the communication, everyone took up arms, it was a bloody Chinese man who defended the Tangshan position with Lao Tzu, and swore to block the Japanese army... The last sentence I almost shouted, as I said I picked up the Thomson submachine gun on the table, and walked towards the forward position, the submachine gun in my hand fired frantically at the enemy, the bullet casings were scattered on the soil, emitting green smoke, and the magazine in my hand did not feel like stopping, my soldiers watched me take the lead and came to the position to fight side by side with the soldiers, everyone was like a chicken blood, red eyes and the Japanese soldiers. The wounded who were still able to move in the rear were also re-returned to their positions.
My guard Shiva was also shot and killed in the battle, Thomson in his hand was heated by the barrel of the gun I hit, and then I realized that my magazine had been fired, I pushed away the machine gunner who had been killed, reloaded the machine gun, loaded, everything went smoothly, I roared, the machine gun in my hand fired frantically at the Japanese army, a bullet hit my left shoulder, and all this as if it had not happened without the slightest pain. The bullets were gone, the grenades were still gone, all the officers and men put on their bayonets and started a white-knuckle battle with the Japanese army, and I also held the bayonet in my hand and began to engage the enemy head-on.
Watching my comrades fall one by one, covered with blood, at this time I was more like a demon who had just crawled out of hell, covered in blood, and the bayonet in my hand knocked down an enemy, at this moment I found the reflection of optical instruments on the opposite hill, and my subconscious told me that this was a Japanese sniper, he had locked on me, a crisp gunshot, the bullet of the Japanese sniper hit my chest, I watched the blood from the wound gush out like a spring, and now I can actually receive the feeling of a heartbeat, His throbbing was decreasing, and I was finally down......
Looking up at the sky filled with gunsmoke, I thought of my family, comrades-in-arms, troops, and Xiwa...... They flashed in front of my eyes like a movie, and what I want most now is to let this group of pirates who trample on and invade my beloved motherland get out of my Chinese territory as soon as possible......
My eyes were blurry, and finally it was pitch black, and my body was starting to lose its body temperature, I knew...... I'm dead......
