Chapter 22: The Lonely City of Blood (4)
"The surname is Zhang, the retreat is the order of the young marshal, why did you frame me for escaping? My father is Rong Zhen, chief of staff of the Northeast Frontier Army, if you dare to hurt me, my father will definitely not let you go. Rong Ziheng saw his subordinates sitting back and watching him be arrested, and shouted unwillingly while being angry.
"Rong Ziheng's nonsense confuses the public and shakes the hearts of the army!" Zhang Xinghan's face turned grim and he shouted coldly: "Kill!" After speaking, he rode away without looking back.
Liu Guodong did not hesitate at all, raised his pistol and aimed it at Rong Ziheng's head.
Feeling Liu Guodong's obvious killing intent, Rong Ziheng finally realized that he was afraid, and begged for mercy with some trembling: "Don't kill me, please don't kill me, as long as you let me live, I promise to thank you!" And today's events are written off. ”
"The surname Rong, don't think that everyone is as virtuous as your Rong family father and son, what if you have money and power? In the face of national disaster, aren't you scumbags the first to run the fastest? People like you are also more likely to be Han Dynasty after staying, so for the sake of the country and the nation, you should honestly go to the Hades Palace to report. ”
After teasing and ironic, Liu Guodong decisively pulled the trigger.
A Mauser pistol bullet snorted into Rong Ziheng's head, the bullet churned violently in his mind, instantly grinding his brain tissue, Rong Ziheng was killed on the spot, and fell to the ground with a bang, after falling to the ground, his eyes were wide open, and a disgusting mixture of red and white flowed out of his terrifying wound.
Many officers and soldiers of the guard were stunned when they saw this, and they had a little more awe for Zhang Xinghan in their hearts.
"Who is the deputy captain of the Guards battalion?" After Liu Guodong finished his work, he asked at the top of his voice.
"I am!" A major officer came out in response and saluted.
"Brother, take your people with me to the city defense headquarters to assemble." Liu Guodong saluted and said to him.
The major officer immediately turned his head and shouted to the officers and men of the guards: "All of them, the rear team will change to the front team, and run forward." ”
More than 500 officers and men of the guards collected their guns one after another, quickly re-lined and followed Liu Guodong under the leadership of the major officer and ran towards the direction of the city defense headquarters.

Zhang's house.
From outside the city, he was ordered to enter the city overnight to find Wang Yizhe's liaison officer of the Seventh Brigade of Reading Power, and finally found the Zhang's house and reported it through the guards.
Wang Yizhe, who had already fallen asleep and rested, hurriedly got up, ran out of the bedroom almost without even wearing shoes, and asked the liaison, "How is it?" How are the troops doing now? ”
"Back to the brigade, everything is fine with the troops, the first battle of the Beida Battalion, because the 3rd Battalion of the 620th Regiment blocked the attack of the Yue Army, so that the main force of our brigade can calmly evacuate, so we have no big losses, but the 3rd Battalion responsible for blocking has made a great contribution and killed all the devils who attacked the Beida Battalion." The liaison saluted and replied.
"I already know about the 3rd battalion." Wang Yizhe nodded.
"When are you going to evacuate Mukden?" The liaison officer said: "Before the humble post came, the chief of staff instructed that the young marshal had clearly instructed all the defenders of our three northeastern provinces not to resist if they wanted to attack, and all of them retreated, waiting for the Nine-Power Convention to intervene. ”
"I also know all this, after I finish one thing tomorrow morning, I will lead the guards to evacuate, you go back and tell the chief of staff, let him make all preparations, and I will meet you at Dongshanzuizi tomorrow." Wang Yizhe waved his hand a little upset, obviously very dissatisfied with Zhang Shaoshuai's negative attitude of not resisting.
"Hmm." The liaison officer nodded, and then said: "By the way, Brigade Seat, when I came here, I heard that Huang Xiansheng, the commander of the city defense, had just transferred all the command of the defenders in the city to Zhang Xinghan, the commander of the 3rd Battalion of our 620 Regiment, and he took over the command and continued to stick to Fengtian City, do you know this?" ”
"Huh? And what's going on? Wang Yizhe was obviously taken aback, and then frowned and said: "Now that this Fengtian City has become a lonely city, Director Huang handed over the troops to the command of this kid Xinghan, isn't it tantamount to harming him?" ”
"Why does Luza say that?" The liaison asked, puzzled.
"Zhang Xinghan is my son-in-law, I know his personality very well, let him lead the troops to stick to Fengtian City, he will definitely fight to the death and not retreat, in this way, won't my Ruoying be widowed?" Wang Yizhe, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was inappropriate, in his opinion, the matter had come to this, Fengtian City would definitely not be able to hold it, and if he insisted on sticking to it, he would not only give his surname in vain, but also fall into the charge of disobeying the young marshal's military orders.
Rather than that, why choose such a thankless approach?
"No, no, liaison, you immediately return to the brigade headquarters and ask Chief of Staff Zhao to send a telegram to the young marshal in my name, asking him to give Zhang Xinghan a retreat order, strictly ordering Zhang Xinghan to abandon Fengtian and withdraw to Jinzhou with our Seventh Brigade of Reading Force." Wang Yizhe immediately commanded.
"Okay, let's go back." The liaison nodded, and saluted.
After sending off the liaison officer, Wang Yizhe paced back and forth with a frown, pondered for a moment, and shouted behind him: "Adjutant, take your people and follow me to the city defense headquarters." ”
"Yes!" Wang Yizhe's attendant adjutant hurriedly answered and quickly gathered the guards.
Wang Yizhe's actions woke up Wang Ruoying, who was already worried, and Zhang's mother Liu Liping naturally followed out of the room, and Zhang Yuxi was no exception.
"Dad, where are you going?" As soon as Wang Ruoying came out of the wing, she saw that the guards in the courtyard were gathering, and hurriedly asked.
Wang Yizhe looked at Wang Ruoying and the Zhang couple, sighed and said: "Alas, I just got the news that Xinghan was appointed by Huang Xiansheng as the city defense commander of Fengtian City, and now Fengtian City is a lonely city. ”
"Then I'll go too." Wang Ruoying said.
"Brother Xian, let's go too." Zhang Yuxi said in a firm tone.
"Well, well, let's go together." Wang Yizhe couldn't help but sigh.

In history, when the September 18 Incident broke out, the Air Force of the Northeast Army, which had more than 300 advanced fighters at this time, and a large number of excellent pilots, was also wiped out due to the policy of non-resistance.
Gao Zhihang, who was the main commander of this air force, saw that the air force of the three eastern provinces, which had been set up with countless financial, manpower, and material resources, was completely wiped out overnight, and after many years of hard work were ruined, he was disheartened and repatriated his family members to their hometowns, and then entered the customs alone.
Since then, he has embarked on the road of loyalty to the country, until he later became the greatest air force hero of the Chinese nation during the anti-Japanese war, and finally died on the battlefield and sacrificed his life for the country.
At this time, due to the appearance of Zhang Xinghan, history was changing slightly, because Zhang Xinghan severely damaged the Yue army, forcing the Yue army to temporarily retreat. So that Fengtian City did not fall as in history.
Similarly, the Shenyang airfield was still under the control of the Northeast Army, and when Liu Jianguo and Wang Yicai rushed to the airport with their people, Gao Zhihang and his air force comrades-in-arms were anxiously waiting at the airport for the order to go to the peak.
The Northeast Army, which guarded the airfield, had a reinforced battalion of 700 troops, well-armed, and equipped with a number of powerful weapons such as anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns.
After arriving at the airport, Wang Yicai and Liu Jianguo immediately presented the order of the commander of Fengtian City Defense and ordered the airport garrison to stand by and resolutely defend the safety of the Shenyang airport, and then passed Zhang Xinghan's order to Gao Zhihang.
After listening to Wang Yicai's explanation, Gao Zhihang happily said: "Since Chief Zhang has taken over the post of Fengtian City Defense Commander, Gao Zhihang should obey the command. After learning about Zhang Xinghan's heroic performance in Beidaying and Fengtian City, Gao Zhihang admired him.
"Major Gao, then please come back to the headquarters with me first, the commander has something important to discuss with you." Liu Jianguo took the opportunity to say.
"Okay, I'll go with you right away." Gao Zhihang nodded happily.
