Seeing Zhao Zilong ask Tang Zhixin how to arrange the retreat, the officers in the audience are also looking at me, I look at you, and none of them can answer.

"Zhao Zilong!"

At this time, Xiao Yushan stood up and said.

"If we really want to retreat, of course we have to obey the orders of the command. Evacuate in order. The breakthrough of the breakthrough, the crossing of the river, the cover of the cover, do not scramble. ”

"Yes, if you really want to retreat, you have to do it." Sun Jian immediately nodded in agreement.

When Zhao Zilong looked at it, he couldn't help but bend the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly.

He remembered that the historical records were that because the order of the Great Retreat of Nanjing was too hurried at that time, among those troops who retreated in advance was Sun Jian's 88th Division.

However, it was no wonder that they were at that time, after all, Tang Zhixin had given an order on the spot, and everyone made a decision in a hurry. In addition, the devils have completely surrounded the city of Nanjing, and if they don't retreat, they will definitely be trapped.

Now that Sun Jian supports Xiao Yushan's statement, it will really come to the day of retreat, and Zhao Zilong believes that the other party should lead the troops to retreat at the time specified in the order.

"Commander Xiao is right!" The short officer standing in the distance shouted loudly, and the officer standing fifty miles away beside him also nodded and smiled at Xiao Yushan.

"If we retreat, we won't cross the river and leave on our own."

"That's true, the soldier has to follow orders."

……

Some military officers also spoke up to support Xiao Yushan's statement.

Seeing this, Zhao Zilong really smiled.

As long as these officers can follow the order and lead the troops to retreat as planned, they will largely avoid being besieged in the city of Nanjing, becoming prisoners, and being killed.

And if the national army troops can be evacuated smoothly, then the devils will not be able to break the city so early, and most of the people in the city will be evacuated.

Therefore, Zhao Zilong did not ask any more questions about asking Tang Zhixin to arrange for the evacuation of the people first.

It is up to people to plan things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen!

Now that he has done his part, he has done his best.

Xiao Yushan nodded at Sun Jian and the commanders of the 66th and 83rd armies of the two Guangdong troops, as well as some other supporting officers.

He glanced at the audience again, and said in a deep voice: "At this time, a real soldier will never retreat, and he will die on the battlefield, and he will not hesitate to do so. ”

Although he didn't speak loudly, all the officers present looked moved.

Zhao Zilong was also oversighted, and couldn't help but be in awe of this soldier.

When Tang Zhixin left Nanjing first, he handed over the command to Xiao Yushan.

Xiao Yushan led the soldiers of the gendarmerie department to bravely resist the devils and cover the retreat for everyone. In the end, he used all the ammunition before committing suicide.

Truly fulfilled the promise of Nanjing!

Seeing that Zhao Zilong blocked everyone's back road with his mouth, Tang Zhixin had to smile bitterly. Block their back road, if they really want to go, it will be despised by people and will be stinking for thousands of years.

"Commander Tang!"

At this time, Zhao Zilong turned his head.

Although he didn't know what these officers would do in the end, basically everyone should be able to retreat in accordance with the regulations, so the most important thing now is for the commander of the Nanjing garrison to show his attitude.

Zhao Zilong knew that in the entire defense of Nanjing, Tang Zhixin had three major responsibilities.

First, in order to cater to Jiang and his own power interests, he resolutely advocated sticking to it regardless of the actual situation.

Second, when he organized the defense, he did not push the line forward as far as possible and control the important outlying positions, but only focused on the proximity to the ground and the city walls, thus missing the opportunity.

Thirdly, he had a very bad arrangement in his retreat. Because Tang Zhixin considered his reputation, he delayed the retreat order issued for a full day, and lost the best opportunity to break through. And when it came time to retreat, he changed his order every day, which aggravated the chaos of the retreat.

On the only relatively safe retreat across the river, he did not arrange enough boats, resulting in a large number of troops falling into the hands of the Japanese because they had no boats to cross.

In the end, tens of thousands of defenders were slaughtered by the Japanese army, and he Tang Zhixin could not escape the blame.

Staring at the other party, Zhao Zilong said: "If you really want to retreat, do you stick to the end?" ”

He knew that Tang Zhixin, who had been shouting and vowing to live and die with Nanjing, was the first to cross the Yangtze River safely by boat to escape after the order was issued.

"This ......"

At this moment, Tang Zhixin suddenly blushed and reddened.

But seeing that the officers in the audience were all looking at him, Tang Zhixin immediately recovered his face and said in a loud voice: "Of course, if I really want to retreat, I will definitely hold on to the end." ”

Zhao Zilong asked, "What you say, does it count?" ”

Commander Tang gritted his teeth: "A gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase." ”

"Gentleman, it seems that you just don't use your mouth, right?"

Glancing at the other party, Zhao Zilong straightened up and said: "Only real soldiers never use slogans, but use actions!" ”

With that, he turned and walked away.

Left, a place of consternation.

-

When leaving the Zhonghua Restaurant, because Sun Jian wanted to stay there for a meeting, only Wu Xin came back with Wang Zhong and Zhao Zilong.

Because they have experienced the events at the banquet and are familiar with each other, Wu Xin and Zhao Zilong have talked a lot.

"Zhao Zilong! You are right to ask everyone to follow orders when retreating, but it should not be said that everyone must hold on to Nanjing. Wu Xin said.

"Why?" Zhao Zijing looked at Wu Xin with some surprise.

"Dean Wu! Our brothers fought to the death in order to protect Nanjing. Why do you say that? Wang Zhong was also stunned.

"Nanjing can't be defended." Wu Xin shook his head.

Zhao Zilong suddenly paused, and looked at this hidden Kuomintang elder with a small scar on his face.

Wu Xin looked at the two of them and slowly analyzed: "First, in terms of geographical location, Nanjing City is located on the plain, which is easy to attack from all sides, and it is easy to attack and difficult to defend.

Second, it is also the desire of the people. There are not many people who really want to defend Nanjing.

Third, since the Battle of Songhu, our Kuomintang army has suffered heavy losses, and its morale has deteriorated considerably. ……”

Listening to Wu Xin's words, Zhao Zilong slowly remembered the post-mortem analysis of the Nanjing Massacre and the defense of Nanjing recorded in history.

Because the Japanese army had two armies, a total of seven divisions and two brigades, about 200,000 people, and the number of troops fighting on the front line reached 100,000.

If the general law of the Nationalist army's war against the Japanese army is followed, then they must have at least three times the superiority in strength before it is possible to contend with it.

At that time, the strength of the defenders of Nanjing was not advantageous compared with the Japanese army, and the terrain of Nanjing was easy to attack and difficult to defend, so it was almost an impossible task to hold Nanjing under the circumstances at that time.

At the banquet, Zhao Zilong also forced Tang Zhixin and those officers to stick to the end as much as possible.

"Huh?" Thinking of this, Zhao Zilong's face couldn't help but change, and he blurted out: "So, am I impulsive at the banquet?" ”
