"Li Anping! You go and inform Zeng Da that we will meet in the village where we first stopped and return to Jiangwan together! Just go! He Jianye ordered,

"The rest, pick up the wounded soldiers and keep moving! Let's go! He Jianye ignored his tired body and continued to move forward.......

Moving all the way, He Jianye is now the leader himself, following 200 meters behind the scout in front.......

Xie Yong, the scout who met and explored the way, squatted down and raised his fist, He Jianye squatted down, bent down and ran to the side, and looked at the fire source in front of him with a telescope, at the intersection where a ghost squad guarded the sentry post stood, He Jianye frowned and asked, "How far is it from the village?" ”

"There are 1.5 kilometers to go." Xie Yong said,

He Jianye gestured, motioned for the reconnaissance company to step forward, pointed to the opposite sentry post and said, "You, responsible for the first on the left, you, responsible for the second on the left, the devil in the middle of me, the first on your right...... You, the seventh on the right; Shoot at the same time and finish them off! ”

He Jianye gestured, signaling the brothers to follow, and the night gave He Jianye a good cover, slowly lurking 200 meters in front of the sentry post, raising the rifle in his hand, and nodding at the brothers.

"Bang!" After a round of gunshots, 6 of the devil's squad were killed, and a devil struggled on the ground......

"Rush!" He Jianye rushed forward after firing the gun, took off the pull ring of the grenade, pounced on a tiger, jumped into the 50-meter area, and the grenade popped out, "Boom!" Several people under the devil fell to the ground in the explosion......

"Tell the people behind to follow, Xie Yong will lead the two brothers to mend the knife!" He Jianye ordered,

"Commander, it's no good, the devil chasing us behind is less than 2 kilometers away from us!" Yang Xiaoshi rushed to come,

"Brethren, the devils who are chasing us are less than 2 kilometers away from us, and we are still 1.5 kilometers from the village where we meet; If you don't want to be chased by the devils, follow me! After He Jianye finished speaking, he led the team to run and march towards the village.

Thousands of troops rushed into the village, He Jianye ordered the establishment of fire points and observation posts outside the village, and ordered the brothers to rest for 10 minutes and wait for Zeng Da to lead the people to converge, and in less than five minutes, Zeng Da and his men arrived;

"Commander, I have brought with me 60 brothers and nearly 500 defeated soldiers, but only a few of these soldiers have guns and ammunition! It's all running with us! Zeng Da reported,

"I can't care about it so much, Yang Xiaoshi, come here; How about taking a look at our scheduled retreat route? He Jianye asked,

"Regiment commander, I'm afraid not, our original retreat route was to pass through the gap between the devil's defense lines and take advantage of the darkness, and now our team has exceeded 5,000 people, how can we pass through?" Yang Xiaoshi said,

He Jianye looked at the simple map in his hand and said to Zeng Da: "Send a telegram to the brigade commander to explain our current position and situation, we can only cross the Beijing-Shanghai Railway from Zoumatang to the west, cross the river from the upper reaches of Suzhou Creek, and return to the south bank of Suzhou Creek." ”

"Regiment commander, in this way, we can avoid a large number of devils, but our marching distance has become much longer, if our brothers can still hold on, you see these captive soldiers, lack of food and clothing, I'm afraid they won't be able to hold on!" Yang Xiaoshi said,

"Commander, the devil is less than 1.5 kilometers away from us; Li Anping rushed to report,

"In that direction, let's decide!" Yang Xiaoshi asked,

"To the south, we have to take risks." He Jianye ordered,

"Crossing the Zoumatang River outside Dachang to the south, taking advantage of the cover of darkness, bypassing Dachang along the shrubs on the beach of the Zoumatang River, heading towards Jiangwan. Let's go! He Jianye gritted his teeth and ordered,

"Regiment commander, it's not good, the more than 100 wounded soldiers here are not leaving, they are making trouble there! Check it out! Li Anping came to report,

"What's going on?" He Jianye frowned, rushed to the village path and asked,

"Sir, I'm grateful to you for saving us from the Japanese devils, but we can't drag you down, you leave some grenades and ammunition for your brothers, and we'll fight the devils here!" A wounded soldier said,

"Nonsense, how can I leave my brother and run away alone, what should I do when I come behind this devil to save you?" He Jianye scolded,

"Sir, we've slowed down the entire pace of the team, and without us, you'd have passed the big game. Let's fight the devil here! This will also cover you. A wounded soldier with gauze wrapped around his head said,

"Sir, you will fulfill us! Or we have to kill ourselves now! All the wounded soldiers around dragged out their bayonets and shouted at themselves,

With tears in his eyes, He Jianye said: "Leave them all the grenades and 6 devil's crooked machine guns, one Type 38 rifle each, and 50 rounds of ammunition." ”

"Yes," Yang Xiaoshi went to arrange,

"Brothers, these our brothers, the wounded soldiers, are buying time for us with their lives, salute!" He Jianye ordered,

"Let's go! The wounded soldier with his head wrapped in gauze cried and shouted! Let's go! ”

"Let's go!" He Jianye led the way into the darkness to the south.

"Brethren, the chief has gone away with the other brethren; It's up to us next. Brothers with limited mobility, give you crooked handles, and a few of our brothers who can still walk will take you to find cover, and a few people will fight with the devil here. Don't forget to keep yourself a grenade! The wounded soldier with his head wrapped in gauze shouted in a cheerful voice,

"I didn't say it, I've already died once, it doesn't matter. Drag two more devils on the road and you'll earn it! The wounded soldier shouted,

"Come, brother, we're going to put you here, the crooked handles are loaded with bullets, and the rest of the bullets are here, and the brother next to you will give you the bullets. We'll see you at the Hades Palace......"

"Brother, this bunker is crossed with the machine gun bunker in the ruins opposite, so you can cover each other, let's go......."

.......

"We're left with more than 90 lightly wounded people who can still move, brothers, in a group of several people, find your own cover! But don't go inside. I guess the devil's first round of artillery fire will blow up the house! To go in is to find yourself a grave! Those who are afraid of death can also chase the team south. Willing to follow my self to keep up. After the wounded soldier with his head wrapped in gauze finished speaking, he entered the darkness without looking back.......

At 11 o'clock in the evening, the 1st Brigade of the 6th Reserve Soldier of the 6th Division of the Devil's Pursuit arrived outside the village under the leadership of the captain Nakajima Nagahiko Shaosa....... The 1st Reserve Brigade of the 6th Division specially reinforced an infantry artillery squadron and a mortar squadron for this pursuit.

Nakajima Nagahiko looked at the dark village, felt a little palpitation, and ordered, "Mortars and infantry guns carry out fire reconnaissance, destroy all the houses, and the first squadron will charge after the artillery fire is covered." Only the man must have been hiding in the village under the cover of night. ”

"Fire!" Nakajima Nagahiko ordered,

"Knock knock" ...... The sound of mortar guns ejecting their chambers, followed by the explosion of "boom, boom, boom, ......boom", plunged an ordinary village in the Shanghai area into a sea of flames, and the sound of houses collapsing was accompanied by the screams of wounded soldiers before they resounded throughout the night sky......
