In the deep blue night sky, a waning moon is about to sink in the west.

By the moonlight, inside and outside the wall of Zhonghua Gate, the national army ran back and forth, seizing the time to clean up the battlefield and repair the fortifications.

Although there was a big victory, everyone did not relax. Although they were tired, the spirits of the crowd were still uplifted.

After Sun Jian told everyone, he returned to the headquarters with Wang Songguang and Xiao Yushan.

Wang Zhong and other officers continued to lead everyone to work on the city wall.

After a busy time, everyone stopped and rested.

Zhao Zilong sat alone on the edge of the female wall behind the city tower, and he looked around while wiping the Zhongzheng rifle.

On the floor of the city wall, except for two sentinels, everyone was lying or sitting, already asleep.

Although the military uniforms worn by everyone were dirty and their faces were not washed, the corners of their mouths were slightly curved in their sleep, and there was a shallow smile. I don't know if it's because I dreamed of my relatives or because I killed the devil happily tonight?

Zhang Long's eyes were closed, his breathing was a little heavy, and he touched the wound on his waist with his hand from time to time.

The young national soldier Wen Bin, holding a rifle, tired, leaned against the wall. His youthful face was devoid of its previous immaturity, with a hint of perseverance and calmness. After the baptism of the battlefield, he has changed from a rookie to a qualified fighter.

The corners of Zhao Zilong's mouth twitched, and he turned his head, but his eyes were aimed at a few tents not far from the city wall.

At this time, under the light of torches planted in the wall, the doctors and nurses in the temporary ambulance station also rested on the spot.

Sweeping over the more than twenty girls in white nurse uniforms that could still be distinguished, Zhao Zilong's eyes were fixed on the familiar pretty face.

Under the light of the fire, Li Xiaoling's pretty face was a bit dirty like a cat's face, her eyebrows were sometimes stretched and sometimes frowned, and she didn't know what to dream about?

Zhao Zilong's brows couldn't help but tighten slightly, he thought that today was December 11th, and he thought of that promise.

Could it be that in order to fulfill the promise, must I take her out of Nanjing City tomorrow? Can you really stay out of it?

There are still three or four hours before dawn, and as soon as the sun comes out, the devils will start an official attack on Nanjing City.

He remembered that in history, after the devils captured the outer positions of Nanjing, they completely surrounded the city, and the previous battles were all part of the troops and tentative attacks. And on the 11th, after the Nanjing Command refused to surrender, the Front Army Command officially issued an order for an all-out attack.

At that time, there may be more than two devil brigades to attack Zhonghua Gate.

Zhao Zilong knew that after two days of fighting, the 88th, 87th, and 51st Divisions guarding Zhonghua Gate had about half of the casualties of the two regiments of the Nationalist Army, and they had not been replenished in time.

Deng Chao, Chen Jun and other gendarmes have returned to Xinkou Street to continue to maintain law and order and search for devils and traitors.

Now although there is a regiment and a half of troops, it is difficult to hold the city walls.

However, Zhao Zilong thought that although the city of Nanjing was finally occupied by the devils due to the withdrawal of the Nationalist Government in history, he saw that he had crossed over here and led the national army to fight several big victories and create history.

He thought to himself, can he change it?

When he thought of this, he couldn't help but be shocked, full of energy and fighting spirit.

Now, he completely remembers this battle in his heart, and the promise to Li Xiaoling is temporarily in his heart.

Any personal interest is very small in the face of major national affairs.

Only when there is a country can there be a home, or maybe this is the responsibility that a soldier should bear, right?

Unconsciously, Zhao Zilong changed from an indifferent assassin to a soldier with a common mind.

-

Nanjing General Headquarters.

"During the ambush operation in front of the Zhonghua Gate, 800 38 large covers, 50 crooked handles, 20 Type 92 heavy machine guns, 20 grenadiers, two Type 92 infantry guns, and more than 10,000 rounds of various types of ammunition were seized. Kill a group leader, two squadron leaders, multiple squad leaders, and more than a thousand soldiers. ”

Listening to the statistical results read out by Chief of Staff Zhou, Commander Tang suddenly showed joy on his face, and immediately clapped his seat: "Okay! Unexpectedly, the 88th and 51st Divisions could fight the devil in an ambush. Very good! ”

Chief of Staff Zhou immediately proposed: "Commander Tang! Would you like to give everyone a briefing and have a small banquet to pay for it? ”

"The report must be wanted, and the whole city will know about it." Commander Tang thought for a moment and said, "As for the banquet, I'll see the reaction from Wuhan first." ”

-

Wuhan base camp.

"Mother's Hippie! A brigade of devils to annihilate? From three to now, our national army has never tried to hit devils so hard. ”

While listening to the chief of staff reading the telegram, CPPCC National Committee member Chiang touched his bald head.

He paid close attention to the battle situation in Nanjing every day, and sent telegrams to inquire and give instructions, but he was always overwhelmed by the news that he was either captured by the devils or lost his position, and his heart seemed to be covered with dark clouds.

Now hearing this exciting news, he suddenly felt a ray of sunshine break through the black clouds, and the sky and the earth were clear.

Commissar Jiang showed that rare smile and said to the chief of staff: "Chief of staff! You telegraph to inquire, who came up with this ambush? I want to reward those soldiers, and even more so to the generals who proposed this action. ”

Commissar Chiang, however, thought that the action was initiated by a brigade commander, division commander, or other officer.

-

A devil's camp in a canyon in Qinglong Mountain.

After Matsui received the latest military information, he immediately went to find Takehito.

"Okamoto United has been wiped out by a brigade?"

When Takehito saw the contents of the telegram, he couldn't help but be shocked; "Is the Shina Army really that powerful?"

"I don't know if the Chinese army has become powerful, but I know that if people are forced to have no way to escape, they will definitely resist desperately." Matsui Shiyin straightened the pair of glasses and analyzed: "This defeat of Taro Okamoto is a big taboo in the army. ”

"What kind of taboo?" Takeren looked at each other with some surprise.

"He shouldn't be blindly confident, because he is too confident, so he is self-righteous and does not do a good job of reconnaissance beforehand. And when he was surrounded, he also retreated because of his self-confidence, thinking that he could do it all over.

Taro Okamoto underestimated the determination of the Shina people to destroy the enemy, and also ignored the low morale of the warriors after a night of fighting, so these factors contributed to his defeat. ”

"Teacher, you have a reasonable analysis. Although this defeat was a wake-up call for our great imperial warriors to recognize the situation. ”

"Yes, if that can be done, then this defeat is not a bad thing."

Speaking of this, Matsui Shiyin laughed at himself: "I admire a little, those people are getting braver and braver the more they fight."

When Wu Ren heard this, he raised his eyebrows and said, "What I admire the most is the person who proposed the ambush, siege and empty city plan. The people of China have always only known defense, they were afraid of our Imperial Army, and now there are people who dare to propose these actions at this time, which is really brave and strategic. ”

-

The commander-in-chief of the devils on the periphery of Nanjing.

"Bah!"

"You immediately send a telegram asking Taro Okamoto to come to me with a head." As soon as Chaoxiang Gongjiu learned about the military situation, he immediately became furious.

After the other party was angry, Chief of Staff Yoshida persuaded: "Commander Asaka! Killing a captain of the United Nations University will not undo the facts, and it will also greatly affect the fighting spirit of the warriors. It's better for you to order Okamoto Daidai to make meritorious service and break through the Zhonghua Gate. ”

"He led the team to fail, how could he attack Nanjing City?" Chao Xianggong snorted softly.

"The people of China can defend the Zhonghua Gate, mainly relying on the city wall, I remember that there were planes to support this morning, as long as the gap in the city wall is blown up, the warriors will definitely be able to break through the city." Chief of Staff Yoshida analyzed.

"Then you go ahead and implement it."

Chao Xianggongjiu thought for a while, instructed, and then complained: "The base camp said that we had not captured Nanjing for a few days, and asked me what to do." Those bastards sit with back pain and don't know how to stand, do they really think that the army is still papery, and it will be broken when stabbed? ”

"Commander Asaka! Ignore the sneering words. As long as you capture the city of Nanjing, then you will have the first credit. ”

"Hmm." Chao Xianggong nodded.

When he saw that Chief of Staff Yoshida was about to walk out of the tent, he called the other party again: "You inform the special high-tech side and ask them to arrange agents lurking in Nanjing to provide the latest military information of the Chinese army." ”
