Chapter 227: Can I ask you a few questions?

Zhao Zilong, who was in the audience, saw that he was being noticed by everyone, although he didn't care, but he felt very uncomfortable.

He was an Assassin who was usually very low-key and unaccustomed to being noticed.

It's just that when he saw the disdainful and smiling expressions of those officers on his face, he understood.

He knew that his current identity was just a soldier, even if he made great contributions, in front of these high-ranking officers, he was just a soldier who bravely charged and killed the enemy and became cannon fodder.

"Commander Tang!"

Suddenly, a voice came from behind Zhao Zilong.

Zhao Zilong was slightly stunned, he didn't need to look, he could also hear this voice, it was the one who started it.

"Brigadier Hu! What do you have to say. Tang Zhixin, who was standing on the stage, was slightly stunned and immediately asked.

"I have a proposal." Hu Qi raised his hand and said.

"What proposal?" Although Tang Zhixin was a little surprised, he still kept smiling.

"Since Brother Zhao you said is so brave, can you ask him to come to the stage and tell us how he killed the devil?" Hu Qi looked at Zhao Zilong, the corners of his mouth curved slightly, snorted lightly, and replied.

Zhao Zilong was stunned again.

Speaking in public, this is his weakness.

He was an assassin and a daring man, and he would never blink an eye when he went on battle to kill his enemies, but it was difficult for him to stand on the stage and speak like those politicians.

However, when he saw the sinister smile on his face, he immediately understood.

It turned out that the other party saw that he rarely spoke, and judged that he was not good at talking, so he made a fool of himself on stage.

Seeing Shen Congnian again, those officers all showed expressions that seemed to be smiling, waiting to watch the play.

Zhao Zilong's eyes suddenly flashed a cold light, but he quickly put it away and turned his head.

"Why did it look like a cold wind was blowing just now?" Hu stood up and trembled, and asked with some surprise.

Shen Congnian was also stunned, nodded and said, "Yes, I feel it too." Just now I saw that Zhao Zilong glared at me, and I felt this way. ”

"Murderous?" The two of them spit out a sentence in unison, and immediately looked at each other, and cold sweat broke out on their bodies.

Hu Qi and Shen Congnian can have their current military positions, they have fought on the battlefield, and they have more or less human lives in their hands, so they are more sensitive to the induction of killing people.

Just being looked at by Zhao Zilong just now, it made them tremble, what kind of person is the other party? Hu Qi couldn't help but be afraid.

"Zhao Zilong! Come on stage and talk about it. At this time, Tang Zhixin on the stage shouted.

Seeing that Zhao Zilong was hesitating, Wang Zhong asked, "Brother! How about you? ”

"Don't worry, it's just a matter of going up and saying a few words." Sun Jian looked over and encouraged.

"Zhao Zilong, can you go to the battlefield to kill devils, and will you be afraid to stand on the stage and talk?" Wu Xin thought that Zhao Zilong didn't dare to go up, so Shen asked.

"I'm not afraid." Zhao Zilong shook his head slightly.

He looked at Tang Zhixin and suddenly thought of some analyses recorded in history about the failure of the Nanjing retreat.

Those sources say that although Tang Zhixin refused the Japanese army's inducement to surrender during the period when he was commanding the defense of Nanjing, and resolutely expressed his stubbornness, his performance in resisting the enemy is indisputable. However, he had an unshirkable responsibility for directing the retreat of the Nanjing garrison.

Because Tang Zhixin misjudged the battle situation, he began to order a retreat the day before the Japanese army broke through the city. However, at this time, due to the poor or broken communication between the various units, the chain of command has collapsed, and the best opportunity to retreat has been missed. Therefore, the order he issued was known only to those officers who were present at the meeting, and no one else knew about it.

"Hey, hey! That Zhao Zilong really didn't dare to go up and give a speech. Hu Qi saw that Zhao Zilong was still standing still, and couldn't help but be secretly happy.

However, when his eyes made contact with Zhao Zilong, his body suddenly stiffened for no reason.

Looking at Hu Qi and the other officers again, Zhao Zilong retracted his gaze and shook his head slightly.

He also knew that Tang Zhixin was of course responsible for the failure of the large-scale withdrawal of troops in Nanjing, but it was more the reason why Hu Qi and Shen Congnian did not carry out their orders.

As soon as the order to retreat was received, some of the senior officers quietly fled across the river alone after the meeting, without informing the officers and men of the troops.

Therefore, without the high-ranking generals to carry out the order, there was no one to organize and direct the retreat, which caused a large number of troops to retreat unsuccessfully and stayed in Nanjing, and finally most of the Nationalist troops were slaughtered by the Japanese army.

The death of more than 100,000 soldiers is a great responsibility for these officers!

But then, Zhao Zilong thought that he didn't want to talk to Tang Zhixin about how to arrange the retreat of the people of Nanjing?

Now that you have this opportunity, why don't you seize it?

What if those officers could be given the order to retreat, or perhaps hold out for a little longer?

Zhao Zilong walked to the front desk, and he looked at the officers on the stage.

Tang Zhixin, who was beside him, asked with a smile: "Zhao Zilong!" Tell everyone about your killing of devils. ”

Zhao Zilong frowned slightly, and turned his head to look at Tang Zhixin. said: "Thank you Commander Tang for giving me this opportunity. ”

"Huh?" Tang Zhixin didn't expect Zhao Zilong to say this, and he was stunned for a moment.

Everyone was also stunned, but when Hu Qi saw it, he smiled secretly in his heart.

Zhao Zilong said again: "I don't mention the matter of killing devils, those are everyone's credits." If it were not for the officers and soldiers of the 88th Division, such as Commander Sun and Wang Zhong, who held the city wall, and without the brothers led by Commander Wang and Commander Xiao of the 51st Division, I would not have been able to defeat a devil brigade no matter how brave I was. ”

When Wang Zhong, Sun Jian and others in the audience heard this, they all nodded slightly and smiled.

"Zhao Zilong! If you don't say how to kill devils, then what do you want to say? Tang Zhixin asked.

"Commander Tang!" Zhao Zilong's tone changed: "Today, can I ask you a few questions?" ”

Tang Zhixin was a little stunned, but quickly reacted and said with a smile: "If you have any questions, just ask." ”

Everyone also stared at Zhao Zilong in unison.

Hu Qi's eyes flickered, and he was a little puzzled.

"......What if" glanced at everyone in the audience, and Zhao Zilong said slowly: "If you receive an order to retreat, what should you do?"

"Huh? ......" Everyone opened their mouths wide and their eyes wide, all showing a stunned expression.

Tang Zhixin raised his eyebrows even more, taken aback.

Because before he came to the banquet tonight, he received a call from Commander Gu, asking him to evacuate first.

"Zhao Zilong! How do you say something like that at this important moment? ”

Hu Qi immediately asked in a loud voice: "We are Kuomintang officers and soldiers, how can we retreat?" It is to defend Nanjing. ”
