Chapter 1057 Retreat
Building the headquarters of the National Army.
A man in a suit appears at the command headquarters.
This person is the same person who has just come in using the Red Cross flag.
His name is Chen Hua, and he is a special commissioner of the national army.
Chen Hua and Xie Cheng are also old friends, and the two meet in this way.
"Chen Hua, is there really no way for us now, do we really want to retreat?" Xie Cheng stared at Chen Hua and said directly.
"I don't want you to retreat, once you retreat, then our Shanghai will fall to the rule of the Japanese, but everything is based on the overall situation, you are a soldier, I believe you can understand this truth." Chen Hua knew Xie Cheng's feelings, after all, this was an irresistible order.
"Once we retreat, countless Shanghai people will become colonies, can we really bear it? Is it really impossible to stay and resist the Japanese? Xie Cheng said pleadingly.
"I also know that I am also sad, but everything for our all-out combat resistance to the Japanese will be related to the overall situation, I hope you can understand my feelings, as I understand your feelings."
"I don't understand, as soldiers, our duty is to defend our homeland and resist foreign aggression, and now that the enemy is in front of our eyes, shouldn't we pick up guns and resist the Japanese? Can't they send us more troops to support us? Do we just watch our fellow citizens suffer? Xie Cheng asked a series of questions, his heart aching.
As a soldier, I hated myself for not being able to protect the people of Shanghai.
"Commander Xie, I understand your feelings very well, my heart is sympathetic to the people of Shanghai, but we had to withdraw from Shanghai for the victory of the anti-Japanese resistance, and after we withdrew, it was also to better fight the Japanese, you have to believe that we are preparing for the overall battle, our hearts will always be tied with the people of Shanghai, and we have not abandoned them." Chen Hua also comforted Xie Cheng bitterly, after all, he knew that as a soldier, it was really uncomfortable to withdraw from Shanghai at this time.
"Now that you know, since you empathize, why don't you fight with us? What do you guys eat for? ”
"I can understand your feelings, if you have any anger, just vent it on me, let me bear your anger for you."
"I don't need you to bear the wrath, I just want to stay and resist the Japanese invasion, even if I die on the battlefield."
"If you can fight for it, I will fight for you a long time ago, but everything is important to the overall situation and the interests of the whole nation, I hope you Xie Chengxi, head of the regiment, can understand our decision above."
"I don't think it's the full name that gives you benefits, but the interests of some of you."
"Xie Cheng, how do you talk?"
"I'm just talking like this, you guys shot me if you have the ability."
"Head Xie, I can understand your feelings very well, and I hope you can understand us too. Everything is aimed at the overall strategy, and as soldiers, we must put the country first. ”
"And when are we going to retreat?"
"Retreat from the bridge the night after tomorrow, and we will try to give you the best time."
"Are you in such a hurry the day after tomorrow?"
"Yes, we must all withdraw from Shanghai the night after tomorrow, I hope you can understand, you have to be mentally prepared for the whole regiment of soldiers."
“……”
"I know this matter is very difficult, but you have to overcome all the difficulties, we are all based on the overall strategy, we will definitely counterattack back and save the people of Shanghai from fire and water." It's easy
"I hope you will do what you say you will do, and not fool me here."
"Please rest assured, one day we will fight back, and every inch of our Chinese land will never fall into the hands of the Japanese."
"Then why can't you fight now, is there any problem now, why wait until later?"
“……”
"As soldiers, we don't want anything, let alone promotion and wealth, we only want the security of the country's territory and the happiness of the people, even if we sacrifice on the battlefield."
"Commander Xie, I understand what you mean very well, I used to be a soldier, but now we must implement the overall plan, as soldiers, obedience is our duty."
“……”
Xie Cheng was silent.
He knew that everything was a foregone conclusion, and there was no way to change the overall strategic arrangement, and as a soldier, he could only obey orders.
More than half an hour later, Chen Hua left.
Leave all the work to Xie Cheng to complete, after all, this is Xie Cheng's troops and only he can complete it.
"What's going on in the group?" At this time, other officers came over, especially seeing that the regiment commander's face was not very good.
"We may have to retreat." Xie Cheng's subordinate officers responded: "We are going to withdraw from Shanghai." ”
"What?" All the officers were quite incredulous when they heard the words of the regiment commander.
"I know you're all surprised, and I've been as surprised as you have before, but this is an order from above, and we must retreat, and no matter what the difficulties, we must overcome them." Xie Cheng was not in the same mood as his own officer, but an order is an order, and there is no way to change it.
"Tuanza, I don't understand, we are defending well now, and we have caused huge casualties to the enemy, can't we continue to stay and resist the Japanese?"
"That's right, Tuanza, we are not afraid, we are not afraid of sacrifice, we just want to stay and face the enemy together with the people of Shanghai."
"That's right, we have overcome all kinds of difficulties, just to resist the Japanese invasion, as soldiers, isn't it our responsibility to defend our homeland and country? Why retreat now? ”
"Tuanza, can't you talk to Shangfeng, we people are not afraid of sacrifice, and we are only dedicated to resisting the Japanese invasion."
The other officers were in a mood of alarm clocks, and everyone did not want to retreat, and they all wanted to stay in Shanghai to resist the Japanese.
Especially now that they have inflicted heavy casualties on the Japanese, it will also play a certain role in restraining them if they stay in Shanghai to resist the Japanese.
Why did you withdraw from Shanghai at such a critical time, and didn't the people of Shanghai take care of their safety?
"Before you came in, I told the commissioner the same thing, but everything is based on the overall strategy, I believe that one day we will definitely fight back to Shanghai, expel the Japanese from Shanghai, and every inch of our Chinese land will definitely not fall into the hands of the Japanese, absolutely not, please believe me." Xie Cheng's eyes were very determined, believing that they would one day definitely fight back to Shanghai and drive all the little devils in Shanghai out of China.
China's territory is sacrosanct, and whoever invades our country's territory will pay a heavy price.
Even if the Japanese have a slight lead now, it will be short-lived.
