Chapter 86: Battle
"Deputy Battalion Commander Leng, are you okay?"
When Leng Jie opened the door, he saw the second battalion commander looking at him curiously and Han Bin behind Leng Jie, to be precise, he was a little curious about this Han Bin, after all, there was a gunshot just now.
"Battalion commander, it's okay, just kidding with this." Leng Jie explained without blushing.
"It's okay, I heard from the people below that I caught a few spies, and when I heard the gunshots just now, I thought it was really a spies." The second battalion commander nodded, but the doubts on his face did not dissipate.
"This is Han Bin, a student, who saved Le Yiqin of the Aviation Committee before, and I met when I withdrew from the Songhu battlefield, not a spy." Leng Jie explained.
Seeing that Leng Jie didn't want to say it explicitly, the second battalion commander didn't continue to ask, but glanced at Han Bin and left.
"Sir, was it okay just now?" Daniel Zhang leaned over and asked.
"Busy with your go!" Leng Jie glared at the other party angrily, and the latter left in a huff.
After this incident, Leng Jie was not in the mood to go back and tell those subordinates about his wonderful past, but called Han Bin aside.
"Why are you here? Didn't I let you go by train before? Why haven't you left Nanjing yet? Leng Jie was a little puzzled.
"Big brother, you don't know the situation at that time, we were kicked off the train when we arrived in Suzhou, and then fled all the way to Nanjing, and we also encountered robberies by soldiers of the national army on the way. When we arrived in Nanjing, the Japanese army also followed, and the Nationalist Government sealed the port, so we could not leave the city.
Big brother, you also know the result of the little devil's invasion of Nanjing, so I want to see if there are any planes at the Ming Palace Airport, maybe they can fly out of the city. Since the other party is the eldest brother he has always respected, Han Bin is also more open.
When Han Bin went to participate in the pilot recruitment examination, it was also related to this eldest brother, Leng Jie was serving in the army at that time, and he was still a colonel-level officer.
Originally, all three brothers in their family could join the army, but the second brother with the best grades didn't know what to do crazy after taking the national defense exam, and he didn't go to the army after graduation, but chose to become a teacher.
Leng Jie naturally knew what Han Bin was talking about, took a piece of dry wood and threw it into the fire, and said, "I know what you're worried about, but the eldest brother can tell you for sure that there are no planes in this Nanjing City, and your idea can't be realized."
It will definitely not work to cross the river from Xiaguan, but after the Japanese army enters the city, I will find a way to lead the team to break through from the front. You will follow us in the next few days, and the eldest brother will take you out of Nanjing City later. ”
Leng Jie's tone was very affirmative, and his eyes looking at Han Bin were also full of doting.
In his previous life, Han Bin was more than ten years younger than him, so he took great care of this little brother, unlike the second brother who always went against him and didn't listen to his own words.
As for how to leave Nanjing, Leng Jie has been studying during this time. It was impossible to retreat from Xiaguan, that would only become a target for the Japanese army, and the best way to leave Nanjing was to break through from the front.
You must know that in history, it is not that there are no troops who have successfully broken through from the front, and large troops can break through, why can't he?
"Big brother, it's not just me, but also a few of my companions... Han Bin hesitated.
"No problem, we'll be together when the time comes. But don't run around these days, otherwise when the Japanese army really invades Nanjing City, the eldest brother may be able to take care of you. ”
If it was before, maybe Leng Jie would stay in Nanjing and spend it with the Japanese army, but now it's different. He didn't expect to meet his own brother in this time and space, and as an elder brother, it was necessary for him to take the other party out of Nanjing alive.
"Okay, big brother!" Han Bin nodded and did not argue.
Then Leng Jie asked Daniel Zhang to find a set of military uniforms for each of the three Han Bin, all of which were found in the warehouse in the city, and then gave each of the three a pistol and a rifle for self-defense.
So Leng Jie's task in the past few days, in addition to fighting the little devils, is also distracted to take care of Han Bin and the others.
However, Leng Jie also found something for Han Bin to do, that is, to take pictures, and as for the camera, it was found in a newspaper office in the city that no one was.
The atrocities of Little Japan, must be filmed!
。。。。。。
December 10th.
The garrison headquarters in Nanjing did not accept the Japanese army's persuasion to surrender, but instead let the city's artillery fire on the Japanese position.
This annoyed the Japanese army, and in the afternoon of the same day, the Japanese army concentrated four divisions to launch a full-scale attack on Yuhuatai, Tongjimen, Guanghuamen, and the 3rd peak of the Purple Mountain.
Fighter planes flew in the sky, hundreds of artillery pieces of various kinds roared on the ground, and the army defending Nanjing really experienced the strength of the Japanese army.
On the afternoon of the 10th, the 112th Division, which was defending the position of the Engineer School, suffered thousands of casualties.
The Tongji Gate, Zhongshan Gate and Purple Mountain defense line were defended by tens of thousands of officers and soldiers of the 261st Brigade, 103rd Division, 112th Division and 156th Division of the 83rd Army.
You must know that the 112th Division is a branch of the Northeast Army, and the Northeast Erlang, whose hometown has long been occupied by the Japanese army, is also bursting with combat effectiveness at this time because of regret in his heart, and with the assistance of the Second Regiment of the Teaching Corps and the 261st Brigade of the 87th Division, he still held his position outside the city, and did not allow the Japanese army to fully attack the city wall.
On the Yuhuatai side, the main forces of the two divisions of the Japanese army and the infantry, artillery, tank and aviation coordinated the attack, destroying all the first-line positions on the right flank of the 88th Division, and the remnants retreated to the second-line positions.
In addition, on the same night, the Japanese 18th Division occupied Wuhu.
The whole situation was extremely unfavorable for the defenders in the city, because of the large loss of outlying positions, the Chinese army was forced to rely on the city walls to hold on, but this was also passive.
The seemingly tall Nanjing city wall could not play a decisive role in the face of Japanese artillery fire, and could only rely on officers and soldiers to resist with flesh and blood.
At this time, Zhou Zhenqiang, deputy commander of the teaching corps and commander of the First Brigade, found that all the villages around the Qilinmen area under the mountain were lit up, and found that it was actually a camp of the Japanese army.
Gui Yongqing asked Tang Shengzhi for instructions, but Tang Shengzhi replied, "There are too many soldiers consumed now, and if the attack fails, the troops defending Nanjing City will be even less sufficient." ”
When the news reached the Second Teaching Regiment, many officers were also a little angry.
As the most elite unit of the national army, the army of the teaching corps, which has received a good military education, naturally knows that such a stubborn defense can only lead to a dead end, but they did not expect that this plan to take the initiative to attack was rejected by the garrison headquarters.
"Regiment Commander, dare to fight!"
