The anti-aircraft machine guns rang out on the Yuhua platform, and angry bullets were fired at the planes that were dropping leaflets on the Japanese troops. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The Japanese reconnaissance plane quickly rose to the top, spun around in the air, and continued to fly eastward, scattering leaflets on the plane.

When Zhang Cheng came out of the underground headquarters of the brigade headquarters, he happened to see Japanese planes flying over his head and a large number of leaflets falling from the sky.

casually picked up a leaflet with undried ink, on which the three big black characters of "Persuasion Book" were unusually dazzling and eye-catching.

"The million-strong Japanese army has swept through the south of the Yangtze River, and the city of Nanjing is under siege...... Commander-in-Chief of the Central China Front of Great Japan: Matsui Ishone. ”

Yuhuatai 88th Division Command Post. Zhang Cheng is now in the rank of colonel, and he can't go back to be a battalion commander, but he is a deputy chief of staff at the brigade headquarters, and he just received a call from the division headquarters. Go to the division headquarters immediately.

"The Japanese army has formed a three-sided encirclement of Nanjing, our position is the commanding heights south of Nanjing, the key to defending Nanjing, the focus of the devil's heavy artillery and air force bombing, do you have a way to find out the Japanese army's heavy artillery position, and blow it up." Master Sun said. The general contribution to Nanjing is about to be carried out.

The worst battle is coming. "The division can organize a small detachment, interspersed behind enemy lines, harass the supply lines of the Japanese army, and find the artillery positions of the devils to destroy." "Okay, you go back and pick people in your brigade to form a special operations battalion behind enemy lines, and what do you need to go to the division headquarters to get it."

The war has now surrendered, this is impossible, it is better to die standing than to live while sitting, the backbone of the Chinese has always been straight.

However, Matsui Ishone's letter of persuasion would affect the decision-making of the generals defending the city, and the commander-in-chief of Tang, who was ambitious and talented, gave an order, burying not only the lives of the people in the city, but also tens of thousands of soldiers of the national army who fought bloodily.

Zhang Cheng felt that he had to do something, although he knew that Senior Commander Sun was not good at fighting, but he was really good to the troops below.

"Zhang Cheng knows that people are light-hearted, and there are some things that I shouldn't say, but I still have to say them." Zhang Cheng said solemnly.

"What do you want to say?" Sun Yuanliang was a little surprised.

"As soon as someone gives the order to fight against the water, we must reserve a way out." Zhang Cheng said solemnly.

"You mean the ship?" Sun Yuanliang quickly understood, and he was shocked by Zhang Cheng's foresight.

"Yes, boat, the 88th Division must have its own ship, otherwise once the retreat order is issued, how can we withdraw smoothly with so many of us?" Zhang Chengdao.

The fall of Nanjing was only a matter of time before it was a matter of time, and Sun Yuanliang, the lieutenant general and division commander, was also thinking about a retreat plan in his mind.

But in the current war situation, no one can retreat lightly, that is a sign of cowardice.

"Also, there is a suggestion from the lowly position, please ask the teacher to solemnly put it forward to the peak!" Zhang Cheng changed to a more serious expression.

"You say." For another person, with Sun Yuanliang's temper, he would have been scolded a long time ago.

"Let the people in Nanjing withdraw to Jiangbei, we are soldiers, defend the country, that is the way it should be, but the common people, unarmed, in the face of the murderous Japanese army, they have no resistance, and the people are in the city, we can't let go of the Japanese army to fight." Zhang Chengdao.

"I'm afraid this won't work, there are at least five or six hundred thousand people in Nanjing, as long as all of them are evacuated, it will take at least ten days and a half months, and if they are evacuated to Jiangbei, how can so many people be resettled?"

"How to resettle, you can think of a way slowly, it's better than losing your life."

"That being said, it's hard to leave our homeland, and even if we are willing to help people evacuate, they may not be willing to leave."

"Then let those who are willing to leave leave!"

"To put it lightly, this is a huge project, once evacuated, it will form a panic, the morale of the army will be weakened, how can this battle be fought?"

"Then at least don't block the passage for the people to evacuate on their own initiative, right?" Zhang Cheng lamented, his strength was too small, and it was difficult to change the dangerous situation in front of him.

Even if he was placed in Tang's position, it would be difficult to make this decision, and no one would have imagined that the Japanese army would be furious in Nanjing and launch a tragic massacre.

"This shouldn't be, Zhang Cheng, you're too worried." Sun Yuanliang shook his head and said.

"I hope so, Master, Zhang Cheng will take his leave." Zhang Cheng knew that it was useless to talk more, he had done his best, and the only thing left was to kill more devils.

"This Zhang Cheng, do you really think you are?" Adjutant Wang passed by Zhang Cheng, who went out, and walked to Sun Yuanliang.

"Shut up, the humble did not dare to forget the country, Zhang Cheng's future achievements are limitless." Sun Yuanliang snorted.

"Yes, Shizuo, I just got the news that our agreement to make secret contact with the Japanese in the hope of reaching a ceasefire has been broken."

"The Japanese side disagrees?"

"Not only were the conditions of the Japanese ceasefire harsh, but the chairman also vetoed it." Adjutant Wang nodded.

"It seems that we are really going to fight against the water." Sun Yuanliang said with emotion.

Fight to the death?

Is it really going to be a last fight? On the contrary, Nanjing, the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, almost never won a battle on the defensive side.

The ancient capital of Nanjing is really precarious.

Zhang Cheng returned to Yuhuatai Heights non-stop,

Personnel, equipment, and camouflaged Japanese uniforms had to be prepared, as well as a radio station.

With Sun Yuanliang's support, some equipment that Zhang Cheng couldn't get at all was also available.

Zhang Cheng transferred 30 people from the 2nd Brigade, and Zhang Cheng decided on the personnel of the 2nd Brigade.

Zhang Cheng did not hesitate to choose Song Huhu, Da Niu and Ma Lin, these three people are his brothers, and they are also the most familiar, and it is easy to command.

The remaining 27 people have sharpshooters, demomen, and especially several who have practiced martial arts.

The ten MP18 machines that Zhang Cheng asked for from Gao Zhisong were all equipped with this squad, and the rest were replaced with Type 38 rifles, two Type 92 light machine guns, one 60 mortar, and 20 shells.

The firepower of this squad is very strong, and it is almost catching up with the firepower of an ordinary wing.

Sun Yuanliang was very supportive of this plan for the destruction behind enemy lines, and there was no need to report such a small-scale operation to the garrison headquarters, and there was no loss if it failed.

After a full meal, he personally led the team to run along the Beijing-Shanghai Railway.

The Japanese were afraid of night fighting, so at night, the possibility of them attacking was very small, and there were barricades and barbed wire everywhere.

You can still see it during the day, and if you are not careful at night, you will lose your troops in non-combat, although they are not afraid of death, but they also know that they cannot die in vain.

So, at night, it's relatively safe.

Counting Zhang Cheng, a total of 31 people, took two cars that had been prepared for a long time, from the Taiping Gate (Nanjing City has been completely closed, only three gates can enter and exit, Taiping Gate is one of them) passage, to the east, driving into the vast night

Zhang Cheng sat in the first car, plus the driver, a total of three people.

The driver's name is Zheng Peng, and he is a squad leader in the transportation chain of the regiment headquarters, and he has the best driving skills before he was selected to join this special squad.

Zhang Cheng's driving skills are naturally not bad, but this is a car from 100 years ago, which is very primitive, and he may need to understand and adapt to it in order to be competent.

He didn't succeed, and the driving job was handed over to the experienced squad leader Zheng.

Facts have proved that Zhang Cheng's decision is correct, Zheng Peng is not only good at technology, but also very familiar with road conditions.

The 88th Division was originally stationed in the barracks around Yuhuatai, and Zheng Peng's transport company often needed sports cars to transport various materials, so he naturally knew the road conditions around Nanjing City well.

The road was bumpy, even if Zhang Cheng had long been accustomed to this kind of high-intensity march, and he was a little unbearable.

"Captain, the front is about to pass the Yaohua Gate, where is the defense area of the Second Legion." Zheng Peng said suddenly.

"Well, everyone has been bumpy all the way, and the weather is so cold, come down and run, and move." Zhang Cheng ordered.

"Yes!"

Zhang Cheng didn't know how to save manpower, but after sitting in the car for nearly two hours, the road was very bumpy, and it was cold, so it was good to take a breath and move a little.

No large Japanese troops have been found in the Yaohuamen area, and there are hardly any large-scale battles, and the Japanese Yamada detachment is storming the fortress of Wulongshan.

The Second Army Corps was responsible for the garrison around Yaohuamen, and a regiment was arranged on the left and right flanks of Yaohuamen, Yangfang Mountain and Yinkong Mountain, to build fortifications, trenches, and semi-locked machine-gun bunker positions to block the Japanese army.

The detachment formed two columns, followed by two trucks, and advanced towards Yaohuamen in a jogging manner.

"We don't want to alarm the Japanese army, and intersperse the past in the shortest possible time, is there a trail or shortcut?" Zhang Cheng asked.

"There is a passage that you can pass, during the day, it is better to walk, at night, it is a little difficult to walk, but you can bypass the main road, and it is not easy to be found by the devils." Li Qinwen said that he had been stationed near here with the troops.

Zhang Cheng nodded lightly, since Li Qinwen knew, then there should be no problem with this road.

"Then go this way!" Zhang Cheng decided.

The car continued to move forward and reached the outpost, which was already very close to the warning distance of the Japanese army.

Zhang Cheng motioned for Zheng Peng to stop.

"Everyone get out of the car, fast, move lightly, don't talk." Zhang Cheng got out of the car, gently patted the railing of the car, and ordered.

"Everyone put on the uniforms of the Japanese army, Zheng Peng, and camouflage the car." Zhang Cheng quickly took a set of Japanese second lieutenant uniforms, and directly took off his clothes and changed them.

Ten minutes later! Everyone, all of them changed into Japanese military uniforms.

"Check your gear, two minutes!" Zhang Chengyi raised his wrist and looked at the time, it was ten o'clock in a quarter of an hour.

"From now on, we will enter the enemy-occupied area, and all actions will be obeyed by the command," in the next four hours, we will travel nearly 60 miles for a long distance, and we can't do it without excellent physical fitness, so Zhang Cheng picked people this time, and physical fitness is the most important factor.

Zhang Cheng waved his hand, and the team quickly marched towards Qixia Mountain.

"Idea breathing and frequency, jogging, so that you don't get tired and you can save energy." Zhang Cheng demonstrated while running.

Human potential is unlimited, it's up to you to dig him out.
