Chapter 65: There is no way back
"Fellow villagers and sisters across the country, I am Chen Qingzhi, the brigade commander of the Independent Mixed Zhongzheng Brigade of the 15th Group Army of the National Revolutionary Army, first of all, I want to announce a sad news to everyone: On December 13, the 26th year of the Republic of China, after the fall of Nanjing, the Japanese army launched a brutal massacre in the city of Nanjing!"
"Until we get the news, so far, according to incomplete statistics, the Japanese army has slaughtered more than 200,000 civilians and prisoners in Nanjing, and the slaughter is still continuing!"
"Hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the entire city of Nanjing were all blocked by the Japanese army in the city, carrying out inhumane massacres, the streets were full of corpses, and the Japanese army's troop carriers drove wantonly on the corpses! Countless corpses strewn across the streets, blood flowed out, gathered into a river, and flowed into the Yangtze River, dyeing the mighty river red! ”
"After the little devil slaughtered the people of Nanjing, some of the corpses were piled up together and burned, the fire burned for seven days and seven nights, the fire infected the entire Nanjing city as bright as day, and the black smoke immersed in the sky over Nanjing, which did not disperse for a long time! There were many more corpses thrown into the Yangtze River by the Japanese army, which actually blocked the Yangtze River and cut off the flow of the river! ”
"The whole of Nanjing has become a hell on earth!"
"The bestiality of the Japanese army is outrageous! It's simply heaven and earth can't be tolerated! Although I, Chen Qingzhi, are soft-spoken, I can't just turn a blind eye! ”
"In this regard, all the officers and men of our independent brigade unanimously asked for war and asked Chairman Chiang to issue a document to declare war on the Japanese army!"
"Nanjing tragedy, this revenge is not avenged, and I am ashamed to be a soldier! Today, all the officers and men of our Independent Brigade swear here that they will fight to the last drop of blood, not to destroy the Japanese invaders, and to swear not to be human! ”
As soon as the news came out, the whole country was in an uproar!
No one thought that or no one dared to imagine that the Japanese army would be so brutal? Unexpectedly launched a brutal massacre in the city of Nanjing?
Everyone who hears the news in front of the radio has a first reaction of disbelief!
Soon, however, newspapers and periodicals all over the country were like sharks smelling blood, and the news was published as soon as possible, and in an instant, the Nanjing tragedy was everywhere in the country.
"Outside the nickname, the Japanese army launched a massacre in Nanjing, with corpses everywhere and rivers of blood!"
"Outside the nickname, 300,000 compatriots in Nanjing were slaughtered by the Japanese army, and their bodies were thrown into the river, and the river was cut off!"
"Outside the nickname, the people of Nanjing were burned alive by the Japanese army, the fire burned for seven days and seven nights, and black smoke shrouded the sky over Nanjing, which did not disperse for a long time!"
"Outside the nickname, hundreds of thousands of compatriots in Nanjing were slaughtered, dead bodies everywhere, and the whole city was almost ghostly!"
When these newspapers published the news, they also attached photos, which clearly and truly confirmed the authenticity of these news, and everyone was silent when they saw this, but after the silence, they suddenly burst into a huge reaction!
People across the country were shocked!
All the people took to the streets, strongly demanding that the government start a war with the Japanese army and avenge the tragic death of the people in Nanjing!
Countless students marched and demonstrated, asking the government to come forward and start an all-out war against the Japanese army, and some people with lofty ideals ran and shouted to each other and gave speeches on the streets, hoping to awaken the hatred of the people.
Countless scholars and professors in the newspaper criticized and strongly condemned the brutality of the Japanese army, although these literati could not go into battle to fight, but they used their own pen to let countless enthusiastic young people join the army and participate in the front line of the War of Resistance.
In Wuhan, countless students marched in groups through the streets and came to the door of the Wuhan Provisional Government, shouting loudly, demanding to see Chairman Chiang and asking the government to go to war against Japan.
"The Nanjing Massacre, hundreds of people died tragically, but why haven't we received any news for such a long time?"
"Why didn't the government make any statement after getting the news? What the hell is our army doing? ”
"I strongly ask the government to start an all-out war against the Japanese army and avenge the tragic death of the Nanjing compatriots!"
All over the country and in major cities, people of insight, patriotic youth, and progressives have all taken to the streets, in the streets and alleys, and in the streets and alleys, running to tell each other.
"Compatriots, classmates, folks!"
"We're going to stand up! The time has come for us to rebel! ”
"The little devil slaughtered hundreds of thousands of my compatriots in Nanjing, and such acts are outraged by people and gods, if we don't do anything, what is the status of our Chinese nation!"
"Compatriots, now that our Chinese nation has reached the moment of life and death, we have come to the edge of the cliff, and we are about to fall into the cliff when we take a step back, and it can be said that we have no way to retreat!"
"If you retreat again, if you don't resist again, if you don't fight again, the destruction of the country and the extinction of the species are just around the corner!"
"The country is on the verge of life and death, compatriots, wake up! Stand up! Fight back against the Japanese invaders, restore my China, and strengthen my rivers and mountains! ”
The speakers were all on the streets, standing on makeshift platforms, with loudspeakers in their hands, shouting impassionedly.
Hearing these words, they all raised their arms in anger and shouted angrily: "Go to war, go to war!" ”
"Fight back against the Japanese invaders, restore my China, and strengthen my rivers and mountains!"
For a time, the people of Wuhan, Chongqing, Xuzhou, Shanghai, Beiping, Changsha, and even the whole country were all boiling, and countless people took to the streets to petition the government, hoping that the government would come forward to explain and start a full-scale war against the Japanese army!
The whole country is boiling!
……
"Bastard!"
Chairman Jiang scolded angrily and shouted angrily: "Niang Xipi! This Chen Qingzhi is really going to make trouble for me! ”
"I used to say that he was my white-robed lucky general, but I didn't expect that it would only take long for me to make such a mess! What a bastard! Chairman Jiang shouted angrily: "Didn't you tell the Independent Brigade before and told them not to publicize it, why would there be a storm in the city!" ”
Chairman Jiang was very angry, just now with a few generals, decided to cover up the affairs of Nanjing, but I didn't expect that in a blink of an eye, this Chen Qingzhi had already made the affairs of Nanjing all over the city!
"Commission, we have already warned the Independent Brigade not to publicize it, and even gave a stern warning, but I didn't expect that this Chen Qingzhi actually dared to disobey the order......" He Yingqin explained, and hurriedly added after speaking: "Commission, or I will punish them now and remove this Chen Qingzhi from his post!" ”
"What's the use of talking about that now?" Hearing this, the chairman of the committee said angrily: "There is already a commotion outside, let's stabilize the people's mood first!" If it is not handled well and causes an uproar in public opinion, the situation will be even more dangerous! ”
"Yes!"
He Yingqin hurriedly responded.
"It's really worry-free!" Chairman Jiang sighed, and while he was angry, he was also full of helplessness.
In the face of the agitated people outside, why didn't he want the government to start an all-out war against the Japanese army?
However, he needs to consider the overall situation, the current military industrial facilities and combat effectiveness of the Republic of China are not enough to support them to start a full-scale war with the Japanese army, and at this time, rash war is not conducive to the current situation.
What's more, the Battle of Xuzhou has been prepared for so long, and the war is about to start.
At this time, if he rashly disrupts the previous arrangement, not to mention that the previous arrangement is all invalid, and now takes the initiative to attack Japan, where will he mobilize elite troops to participate in the war?
He could only press it down first, and then patiently prepare for the battle of Xuzhou!
