Song Xilian's 36th Division was a descendant of the Central Army, well-equipped, but unfortunately suffered heavy casualties in the First Battle of Shanghai, and almost retreated to Nanjing, although it was now reorganized and replenished, but the 36th Division's willingness to fight was reduced to the freezing point, and the new recruits were as many as 50%, and the combat effectiveness was almost negligible.

This is also the reason why such an ace army did not serve as the garrison of the periphery of Nanjing, responsible for withstanding the Japanese army, but was sent to Rujiangmen to guard the Xiaguan wharf and defend their own people.

"Lu Yingying said bluntly in front of Commander Tang, Song admired, but Song is just a small division commander, I don't know what can help you?"

Song Xilian said, his face was as vigilant and vigilant as a snake and scorpion, it was certain that if it weren't for Xiao Shanling's face, he wouldn't even bother to say such perfunctory words to Lu Yuan, of course, if he was offended by death, this guy probably wouldn't dare to follow the scene of Tang Shizun as a threat, but he still remembered it vividly.

"Xiaguan is the most important passage from Nanjing to the north shore, and in case Nanjing falls, Xiaguan may be the only way for everyone to escape!"

Lu Yuan said: "Division Commander Song has a great responsibility to garrison Rujiangmen, in case such a situation really happens, if Division Commander Song can ensure the order of Xiaguan and adapt to the situation, I think the officers and soldiers who can escape alive will definitely be grateful to you!" ”

"Are you teaching me how to do things?"

Song Xilian snorted coldly in displeasure: "Song is a soldier and only obeys military orders, as long as Commander Tang and Chairman Tang do not give the order to retreat, my 36th Division will never let anyone enter the Xiaguan Wharf Commander Xiao, Lu Yingying, farewell!" ”

After saying that, he turned around angrily and left, without giving face at all.

Xiao Shanling shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Master Song is the chairman's favorite general, don't say anything about you and me, even if it is Commander Tang's words, he can listen to it if he wants to, and if he doesn't want to listen, Commander Tang is okay."

Lu Yuan looked at Song Xilian's back stupidly, he hated the kind of bureaucratic style of officers in this era, but there was nothing he could do.

Once again, he had the idea of having a completely own army, if there were such bureaucrats in his own army, he felt that no matter how capable the other party was, he would directly pull it out to shoot targets!

"Actually, you don't have to worry too much!"

Xiao Shanling lowered his voice and said: "Although I don't think the worst situation you said will happen, but I also secretly made some preparations, arranged an artillery array on the high ground near Xiaguan, and controlled Wen Tianxiang's torpedo squadron, in case the kind of situation you said really happened, the gendarmerie I led will do its best to maintain order in Xiaguan, but I don't know what you said, are you ready?" ”

"My people are all people who have killed me from the sea of blood in the mountain of corpses, even in the face of the Japanese army's 10,000-strong charge, they have never dropped the chain!"

Lu Yuan said coldly: "I will never worry about them doing things!" ”

"Don't think that only your people can, my gendarmerie has no bad seeds!"

Xiao Shan Lingniu coaxed and said, the team he brought out single-handedly, of course he had the confidence to say this, and he was also proud of his brothers.

His feeling is right, in the Battle of Nanjing in history, the gendarmerie did perform very bravely in the confrontation with the Japanese army, but it was not enough.

"Deserter, you're not dead yet?"

Just as the two of them were talking, an abrupt roar sounded outside the headquarters, the familiar Sichuan sound, the excitement of a long-lost reunion that was almost tearful from almost every syllable, only the brothers who had fought side by side on the battlefield of thousands of troops, and had fought together and shed blood together, would understand what kind of mood it was.

Lu Yuan looked up, and saw a guy in a straight uniform, with the rank of regiment commander, two lines of tears on his face, a big nose twitching like a hungry crying baby-like guy trotting over, raised his hand and punched him in the chest.

"I'm not dead when you're dead!"

Lu Yuan punched it back, laughed and said, "When you become the head of the regiment, do I want to salute you?" ”

"Then forget about the scum who followed you? When Lao Tzu saw them, he had to let them give Lao Tzu a good salute, even if there was even the slightest non-standard Lao Tzu, they had to beat them to death, those bastards, they used to scold Lao Tzu! ”

The people who came also laughed and said, Jiao Dapeng, on the battlefield in Shanghai, the second company commander who likes to strip naked and hold a big rib bone and wave a big blade to lead the team to charge at the devil is now the head of Jiao.

The surrounding guards rolled their eyes and looked at them and Xiao Shanling, who was stunned on the side, as if they were looking at a group of fools or madmen.

"If the head of the Xie regiment and Lao Hu are still alive, knowing that you single-handedly injured Gu Shoufu to a serious injury, you will definitely be crazy, I feel happy to think about it, and I will relieve my hatred!"

Jiao Dapeng was screaming in spittle, perhaps remembering the tragic battle in Shanghai, and his eyes that had just wiped away his tears were a little red, and then he saw Xiao Shanling, busy arranging his appearance embarrassedly, and saluting to introduce himself.

"Okay, now that the military situation is urgent, I won't delay your old comrades-in-arms to meet and catch up on the old road, keep in touch with me!"

Xiao Shanling nodded, and then left with the guards.

"Last night, Commander Tang informed the whole army, only to know that you were also in Nanjing, and the brothers knew that you assassinated Gu Shoufu and seriously injured him, and they all went crazy, and they all wanted to see you again in a hurry, and there were only a few dozen people who fought together in Shanghai."

Jiao Dapeng said, while talking about what happened after leaving Shanghai.

The 26th Division was completely crippled after the first battle of Shanghai, and the entire division was claimed to be 10,000 people when it set out from Guizhou, but when it was withdrawn from Shanghai, there were less than 600 people left.

The division commander Liu Yuqing reorganized the source of troops with the number, and these 600 people, except for a few of them who were far away and those who were seriously injured, the rest of them all had their own rewards, and Jiao Dapeng was promoted a few levels in a row, and now he has become the regiment commander.

After retreating to Nanjing, these Sichuan troops were incorporated into Song Xilian's 36th Division together with Jiao Dapeng, and are now stationed at Rujiangmen with Song Xilian's troops.

Last night, Lu Yuan's assassination of Gu Shoufu spread all over Nanjing, and the Sichuan troops were clamoring to see Lu Yuan, but now the situation is tense, and all parties strictly ordered the soldiers not to leave the position without permission, so as not to escape those who are greedy for life and afraid of death.

"The brothers all know what you have done along the way, and they regret jumping straight to their feet one by one, regretting not being with you, otherwise our brothers in the 152nd Regiment can still beat the little devils on the Jiangsu Plain and cry for their mother!"

Jiao Dapeng looked annoyed.
