Chapter Eighty-Five: The Fall of the Long-Legged General
Just as the special combat team rescued a cadre of doctors and nurses from the hospital, the battle along the Yantietang line was also coming to an end. The two brigades of the 12th Infantry Wing of the 11th Division of the Japanese Army could not stop the fierce firepower of the guards at all, especially after the artillery battalion used the 107 rocket artillery to fire a salvo, the Japanese troops on the west bank of Yantietang were immediately beaten and scattered.
Bai Fei saw that the battle was going smoothly and quickly, and nodded with satisfaction.
At this time, Li Hu returned to the regiment headquarters with a group of personnel, and Bai Fei immediately called him to inquire about the situation.
Bai Fei asked, "What about the casualties?" ”
Li Hu said: "Only three brothers were injured, but..."
"Just what? Talking slurred..."
Li Hu said in a deep voice: "Although we rescued the staff in the hospital, when we went, the little devils had already killed more than 200 wounded soldiers and prisoners in the hospital, and some of them died in a very tragic state, and there were many people who were cut off by heart, disembowelment, and limbs..."
As he spoke, Li Hu explained the incident in detail.
Bai Fei was also depressed when he heard this, and smashed his fist on a small tree next to him, breaking his hand.
Li Hu was startled on the side, and hurriedly said: "Tuanzuo, we are all to blame for this, if we had gone a few minutes earlier, we might have been able to avoid such a tragedy." I plead for punishment! ”
Bai Fei sighed and said: "It's not your fault, if you want to blame it, it's the little devil who has no humanity, you have already done what you should do, there is no need to blame yourself." But remember, in the future, if you catch the little devils again, you will give them back all the bloody methods they have inflicted on our people..."
Li Hu gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry, I know how to do it." ”
Bai Fei didn't know that just inadvertently, he had created a bloodthirsty demon that would make the Japanese frightened when they mentioned it in the future, and in the entire War of Resistance Against Japan, all the Japanese soldiers captured by the special combat team died in their bloody and cruel methods. If the details are told, it is enough to frighten the listeners and frighten the hearers. So much so that after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, all the special combat team members suffered from very serious mental illness, and some even committed suicide, Bai Fei had to spend a lot of money to hire a well-known psychiatrist to give them long-term psychological treatment, which slowly resolved the anger in their hearts. Of course, that's an afterthought.
At this time, when Li Hu finished his report and was about to leave, he remembered something, so he said: "Tuanzao, there is a young female doctor among the rescued people, clamoring to see you along the way, do you want to see her?" At the end, he added: "The person is very beautiful..."
Bai Fei couldn't cry or laugh, and scolded with a smile: "Are you idle and have nothing to do, do you want me to find something for you to do?" ”
As soon as Li Hu heard this, he disappeared for a moment.
Bai Fei shook his head, and was about to do something else, when he heard a sad cry, Bai Fei turned his head to look, and saw Wang Weiguo walking from a distance with a person, and heard the man snort and tears, and shouted in his mouth: "Brother, brother, I almost can't see you, woo woo..."
Bai Fei listened to the voice a little familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was, and when they got closer, Bai Fei was taken aback and said in surprise: "Brother Yuanliang, you... Why are you here, how are you still like this? ”
It turned out that the person who came was Sun Yuanliang, the commander of the 88th Division.
At this time, Sun Yuanliang was dressed in a refugee suit, with blood stains everywhere, his hair was scattered, his face was covered with dust, blue and purple, snot and tears flowed, he looked extremely embarrassed, where was there still a little bit of division commander's posture, it was not much worse than a beggar.
Wang Weiguo made a look, pulled Bai Fei aside and said: "We just attacked the other side of the river, and encountered a Japanese concentration camp not far from the south of the Bao'an Highway.
It turned out that Sun Yuanliang, the commander of the famous 88th Division, had started his plan to make a fortune since he annihilated the Japanese marines in Hongkou and other places, and he ordered people to drive trucks around the city and the concession all day long. Not only that, but many shops that were not opened by the Japanese but became ownerless because of the war were also "taken care of" by Sun Yuanliang. For several days in a row, chickens and dogs jumped in the urban area, and the ground in Shanghai was almost scraped off a few inches.
However, even after such a search, Sun Yuanliang was still not satisfied, and after seizing the city, he set his sights on the outskirts of the city, and took advantage of the absence of the British troops in charge of guarding the factory to empty the Toyota Yarn Factory on the outskirts of the city and opened by the Japanese in one fell swoop.
Just as he was loading and pulling these cotton yarns away to be transported to Suzhou and other places for sale, the military order from above came down, and the 88th Division was transferred to the Jiatai Line to block the Japanese army. Sun Yuanliang then gathered all the cotton yarn and vehicles he had grabbed in Fangtai Town, and planned to take them with him when he retreated.
At ten o'clock this evening, the withdrawal of troops from the urban area was completed, and the troops also received an order to retreat, and the rest such as the 36th Division and the Tax Police Regiment were quickly evacuated, but Sun Yuanliang was still worried about the cotton yarn placed in Fangtai Town, so he asked the 88th Division to retreat, and he himself came to Fangtai Town with 2,000 people.
When I came here, I found that something bad had happened, it turned out that the road to Suzhou was crowded with refugees at this time, and vehicles could not pass at all.
The entourage persuaded Sun Yuanliang to let him give up these things and evacuate quickly, but Sun Yuanliang was reluctant and hesitated for a while.
At this time, Sun Yuanliang was completely anxious, and in the confusion, an idea suddenly came to his heart, so he threw off his entourage, hid in a corner where no one was around, took off his military uniform, lay down a set of dirty clothes from a dead man, and wiped two handfuls of dust on his face, messed up his hair, and dressed himself as a beggar, intending to take advantage of the darkness to blend in with the fleeing crowd and take the opportunity to escape for his life.
Unexpectedly, they had just blended into the ranks of refugees when suddenly a group of Japanese soldiers intercepted them, and then Sun Yuanliang and a group of refugees were taken to a temporary concentration camp. Inside, refugees were constantly bullied, humiliated, tortured, and killed by the Japanese army, and Sun Yuanliang, because of his tall stature, was temporarily used as a person to dispose of corpses, responsible for throwing corpses into Yunzaobang.
Until he was rescued by the escort, Sun Yuanliang had been living in trembling, and he could be in a different place at any time. Now that he is in danger of dying, the psychological pressure can be imagined, and it is no wonder that he cried bitterly as soon as he came up, and he was sadder than his father and mother died.
In Wang Weiguo's description and Sun Yuanliang's intermittent words, Bai Fei guessed the whole thing. immediately ordered someone to bring washing water for Sun Yuanliang to wash, and then brought him a set of clothes to change into.
Sun Yuanliang stabilized his mood at this time.
After calming down, the first thing Sun Yuanliang said was: "Brother, the Japanese army is coming, and those cotton yarns are still on the other side of the river, so hurry up and send someone to get them." ”
