Chapter 54: Giving Up
"Rush! Get the devils out of the station! ”
The devil's tanks were bombed one after another, causing its offensive to slow down suddenly, and seeing this situation, Li Hong gave the order to counterattack.
"Rush!"
A large number of soldiers of the Tax Police Corps rushed out of the ruins and rushed out towards the Japanese soldiers with rifles with bayonets secured, and for a time the troops on both sides began a brutal hand-to-hand combat.
Taking advantage of the beginning of hand-to-hand combat, some soldiers of the Tax Police Corps hurriedly moved the corpses or wounded soldiers of the demolition team that had blown up the tanks back to the train station.
Although the Japanese army's bayonet fighting skills were very good, the soldiers in front of them had survived from 5,000 people, and they had already been trained to perfection, and their momentum was like a rainbow, which was not worse than the momentum of the Japanese army.
On the contrary, because its chariot was blown up by the soldiers of the tax police corps who rushed out, the Japanese army had the intention of retreating.
Everyone can die in battle, but the chariots cannot be destroyed by the Chinese army.
So the hand-to-hand combat did not last long, and when all the remaining tanks of the Japanese army were withdrawn, the Japanese soldiers also withdrew like a tide.
"Leng Jie, are you okay?"
After the Japanese army retreated, Li Hong came to Leng Jie in embarrassment, and after seeing the injuries on the other party's body, he couldn't help but care.
Leng Jie was very embarrassed at this time, although he had sniped the devil sniper before, but he was not happy.
It was as if he had crawled out of a chimney, with blood on his arms and legs, and it had mixed with the dust.
"It's not a big deal, it's just a little skin trauma."
Saying that, Leng Jie raised his hand, but Li Hong still noticed the unnatural movement of his hand.
"Will it have some impact on the battle later?" Li Hong unceremoniously debunked.
Leng Jie was a little embarrassed, "It's a bit of an impact, if it's an ordinary sniper, it should be fine." But if you encounter Japanese snipers again, it will be very deadly. ”
"Is that okay? Medic, hurry up and treat his wounds. Li Hong glared at Leng Jie fiercely.
The two medical soldiers immediately came over, took out the tools in their hands and began to clean Leng Jie's wounds, and when the wounds on his body were cleaned, some of the people around him were also a little surprised.
This is a simple skin trauma!
There are more than 30 large and small wounds on his body. In addition to the skin trauma, there were several more serious wounds, three of which were on the calf, one on the back, and one on the arm.
The wound on the lower leg should have been smashed by the bricks from the explosion, and it was not a major problem, but it would definitely affect the movement.
On the contrary, the wounds on the hands and back are more serious, they should have been scratched by the shrapnel from the explosion of the devil's shell, and the wounds on the hands were not light, but a little large.
The skin trauma is fine, after the wound is cleaned, just wipe some external medicine, but the wounds on the hands and back must be sutured, and then bandaged and rested for ten days, half a month after the stitches are removed.
And you can't do strenuous exercise during this time.
"Commander."
"Company commander, are you alright?"
"Company Commander..."
Li Chengshuo, Li Jichang and others came to the station one after another, and couldn't help but exclaim when they saw the wounds on Leng Jie's body.
"What's the noise? Cry and mourn! It's just a little skin injury, and labor and management are not dead! "Leng Jie didn't have a good airway.
This is at most a minor injury, compared with those who lack arms and legs, I don't know how much better, and he only recuperates for ten days and half a month.
"Okay, you all go down, do a good job of night duty, it is estimated that the little devils will sneak attack at night, guard against it." Li Hong commanded.
After the idlers waited for them to leave, Li Hong sat down next to Leng Jie.
Seeing that the other party could still speak naturally while receiving sutures, he was also a little impressed, knowing that this did not use anesthetic.
It's not that there is no anesthetic, but because the injury is not serious, Leng Jie took the initiative to ask not to use it.
During the daytime fighting, many soldiers were seriously wounded, and they needed anesthetics even more.
"Are you sure you're okay?" Li Hong asked again.
"Captain, when did you become a mother-in-law and mother-in-law? I'm also afraid of death, I won't joke with my life, it's fine. Leng Jie said speechlessly.
"How many more days do you think we'll be able to hold out?" Li Hong's face suddenly became serious.
"Two days at most!"
"Didn't you say you could last five days? It's only the first day. ”
"I didn't expect the devil to be so crazy. I took a look, and the devil in front of me was from the Ninth Division, and the regiment commander knew that there was a major general in the Ninth Division who died at my hands, and there were hundreds of devil officers and soldiers.
The devils of the 9th Division of our 4th Regiment died in the thousands, to say the least.
It's called 'enemies meet each other, and they are very red', haven't you noticed that the devils have sent tanks to us?
Although this station is important, there is no need for the devil to send such an army, right? And so many tanks. At this time, the Japanese army should have left a part of the army to occupy Suzhou, and then use the tanks as the vanguard to pursue the main force of our retreat.
In such a situation, if we continue to stay, even if we can hold out for five days, how many of our hundreds of people will be left? ”
At this time, Suzhou was called Wu County in terms of structure, so this railway station was called Wu County Railway Station. However, it is customary to call it Suzhou, so whether it is Suzhou or Wu County, the name is correct. In June 1927, the Suzhou Municipal Preparatory Office was established. In November of the following year, the county and city were divided, and Suzhou City was formally established on the basis of the Suzhou Municipal Preparatory Office. In May of the 19th year of the Republic of China (1930), the Jiangsu Provincial Government revoked the city-level establishment of Suzhou and merged it into Wu County on the grounds of austerity.
After all, the Republic of China at this time implemented a three-level system of provinces, inspection districts and counties, and Wu County was subordinate to Wuxi District at this time.
Li Hong fell into deep thought, he naturally knew the current situation. But retreating without permission is not a trivial matter, and Li Hong is a little bottomless in his heart, but he is also a little unwilling to be treated as an outcast like this.
They desperately blocked the Japanese army in front, but the troops behind were good, and some generals even made a lot of war money and grabbed supplies.
"What are you going to do?" Li Hong asked.
"Hold on for one more day, withdraw from Suzhou tomorrow night, withdraw to Wuxi, where there are large troops and a strong defensive line, you can still defend. If we wait for the Japanese to react, we will be surrounded by the Japanese army.
We can't be like the Four Lines Warehouse, right? ”
"It's a pity that those hundreds of strong men don't know if they can return to the battlefield." Li Hong still knows about the defense of the Sixing Warehouse, after all, it has become a typical example.
However, these front-line soldiers should know more, Xie Jinyuan and other more than 400 people are actually abandoned sons, abandoned by their army commander Sun Yuanliang.
In the end, the remaining 300 people were evacuated to the concession. Now that Shanghai has fallen, these hundreds of them are surrounded by the Japanese army, and it is impossible for the Japanese army to let them go.
That's why Li Hong said whether these hundreds of people can leave!
