Chapter 15: Inside Jinling City (4)

The security zone is very large, and there are many refugees who have taken refuge here, and food and medicine are the key to the stability of the security zone, and the daily food consumption of the safe zone, which has exceeded 100,000 people, is not a small number.

Soldiers grabbing food, this is a harbinger of chaos at any time, but Zhang Cheng has long been unable to scruple so much, between the chaos in the city and feeding the many refugees in the security zone, Zhang Cheng can only choose the latter. With a "boom" sound, Su Ji's gate turned into pieces of wood all over the ground with the explosion, and he casually threw the grenade ring hooked on his finger on the ground, Zhang Cheng just waved his hand, and more than a dozen national army routs who had changed into civilian clothes swarmed up, and carried Su Ji's grain onto the truck on the side of the street.

It was already three o'clock in the morning, and after killing three waves of small Japanese troops infiltrating the city in a row, Zhang Cheng did not encounter Japanese soldiers again, and immediately began to concentrate on informing the civilians in the city to take refuge in the safe zone. Less than half an hour after being put into the safe zone, Mu Lianshan, who had just settled his family, was recruited by Bella to become the temporary captain of a team of rickshaw drivers, who were responsible for transporting food back to the safe zone in the rickshaw.

"You robbers, robbers, I said I wouldn't go to any safe zone, let me go, let me go." The old man with gray temples struggled violently in the car, but unfortunately he couldn't break free from the strong men around him, and finally could only watch more than a dozen men in short shirts rush up and load all the things in his clinic onto the truck. "Bandits, robbers, you are bandits, and you are unreasonable." In desperation, the old man could only use words as his weapon to fight back, but unfortunately the three strong men in the car just didn't say a word.

"Doctor Huang, why are you doing this, let's ask Dr. Huang to go to the safe area, also to treat the sick and save people, don't you want to treat those refugees, you want to wait to treat the devil soldiers?" Ding Cheng, who was standing outside the car, looked at Huang Wenxuan with a smile, although there was a slight smile in his words, but what he couldn't bear in his eyes was a thick anger, as long as Huang Wenxuan dared to say that he didn't go to the safe zone, Ding Cheng would immediately be able to stab this stubborn doctor into a blood gourd with a knife.

Huang Wenxuan is a Western doctor, not to mention bleeding and losing flesh, even if the intestines are rotten, he has seen a lot, but when he faced Ding Cheng's eyes, he flashed a thrill for no reason, and then stopped struggling and scolding. Huang Wenxuan's reaction was obviously very satisfying to Ding Cheng, and he immediately took out a gold bar from his pocket and threw it in Huang Wenxuan's arms, "Doctor Huang, we won't call you for nothing, this bar is your reward." When you get to the safe zone, take care of those refugees, and as long as you are satisfied, maybe you will be given another note. ā€

Seeing off the car carrying Huang Wenxuan and the truck full of medicines and equipment, Ding Cheng suddenly reached out and rubbed his head, and asked his subordinates a little sullenly, "You say, am I a little too generous, why did I give the surnamed Huang a strip for nothing." "The soldiers under Ding Cheng naturally can't say that you are stupid, boss, so they have to say that Ding Cheng is a bodhisattva, and he can't see those refugees in the safe zone suffering from illness, so he gave Huang Wenxuan gold bars.

"Damn, after a good period of drinking and eating meat with the captain, Lao Tzu's heart has also become better?" Ding Cheng rubbed his head and asked himself, but saw that his subordinates had smashed open the grain store on the corner, so he had to put this issue aside for the time being, and the most important thing now was to find food and doctors for the safe zone.

The defense line of the national army has not yet collapsed, but the city has become a pot of porridge, and people from all walks of life began to loot food in the city, and after Zhang Cheng issued an order to need medicine, more clinics and hospitals were looted in the city. Zhang Chengcheng, the initiator of all these things, only knew a small part, because the whole thing had seriously deviated from Zhang Cheng's plan, and there were no less than 1,000 defeated soldiers who were successfully lobbied by Chen Qingshan, and the food and medicine that these people got in the city were being sent to the safety zone in a steady stream.

The riots in the city had already attracted the attention of the garrison command, and after receiving successive reports of routs looting hospital medicines, the garrison headquarters finally sent a small number of troops to search and intervene. The gunfire in the city, which had already been much weaker, intensified again, and the pursued routs exchanged fire with the pursuing troops, and the defenders on the city defense line were confused, but the Japanese troops outside the city were overjoyed, believing that the dense gunfire coming from inside the city was the sabotage of the infiltration troops who had infiltrated the city in advance.

Zhang Cheng had no time to pay attention to these at the moment, he and Da Niu were blocked in a grocery store by a Japanese infiltration force, "boom", another grenade was vigorously thrown out of the grocery store by Da Niu, when Zhang Cheng was busy loading the magazine, Da Niu's grenades became the only means of counterattack for the two.

"Boom" was accompanied by an explosion, shrapnel and debris mixed with air waves and fireworks splattered in all directions, and with the sound of rain hitting the eaves, the Japanese soldiers outside the grocery store who were using wooden planks and debris as cover shouted in unison, and a lot of shrapnel and debris had penetrated their cover, nailing them with fragments of wood chips. "Bang" and "Bang" two gunshots rang out, Zhang Cheng, who poked the muzzle of the gun out of the window, quickly put away his gun, and the two Japanese soldiers who were hit by the bullets also screamed and leaned on the ground.

Zhang Cheng uncharacteristically did not kill the two Japanese soldiers, but only hit them in the legs and feet with bullets, Zhang Cheng did not do this because of poor marksmanship, but because he wanted to use the two wounded Japanese soldiers as bait to lure other Japanese soldiers who were hiding out to die. "Big bull, give me a bullet." Under the suppression of Zhang Cheng's accurate gunfire, the Japanese soldiers outside the grocery store have not found a chance to kill with one hit, and finally waited for the big cow to press the bullets in the magazines, Zhang Cheng, who had been suppressing the fire on the Japanese army outside, was immediately overjoyed, took a few grenades and threw them out of the grocery store, Zhang Cheng took the big cow out of the hole in the back wall of the grocery store.

"Big Niu, I'll go to the room." Zhang Cheng, who drilled out of the hole in the back wall, did not think about escaping from here, but stepped on the shoulders of the big cow and went directly to the roof from the back wall. The roaring noise outside the grocery store successfully muffled the movement of Zhang Cheng on the roof, and the smoke from the explosion had not yet dissipated, and Zhang Chengcheng on the roof had already moved to the side facing the street. After a burst of rapid shooting, Zhang Cheng on the roof jumped directly from the roof, and after Zhang Cheng landed, he rolled forward, and then turned around and shot down a Japanese soldier hiding under the eaves.

"Big bull, just take the grenade, and don't want the rest of the things." Zhang Cheng, who was busy rummaging for grenades from the Japanese corpses, saw that Da Niu was rummaging through the pockets of one of the corpses, so he reprimanded him, and Da Niu who was reprimanded by Zhang Cheng was not angry, but just handed Zhang Cheng half a pack of matches that he had rummaged out.

Da Niu rummaged in the carcass's pockets for matches, just because Zhang Cheng had complained that there were no matches to light a cigarette, and in fact, they entered the grocery store because Zhang Cheng wanted to find matches to smoke. For a pack of matches to put himself in danger, Da Niu not only complained, but also firmly remembered that Zhang Cheng needed matches, and he didn't care if he was reprimanded by himself, Zhang Cheng knew that it was his luck to recognize such a brother.

"If you are true to me, I will not fail you." Zhang Cheng said something that Da Niu couldn't understand with red eyes, and reached out to pat Da Niu's shoulder, who smiled and went to rummage through the grenade on the corpse's waist. The two quickly put a few grenades they found into their backpacks, and then disappeared into the vast night along the street, and before they knew it, after killing more than a dozen Japanese soldiers who had infiltrated the city, Zhang Cheng suddenly found that he and Da Niu had circled back to the vicinity of the safe zone.

Now that he has returned here, Zhang Cheng also took the big cow and prepared to go back to the safe area to replenish ammunition and water a little. It's already December, the night is shrouded in cold wind, there are many refugees waiting to enter the safe zone outside the horse rejection fortifications outside the safe zone, adults and children are noisy, the whole street is noisy, those tired refugees can only sit in the open air now. Look at the piles of refugees in front of you; Listening to the desolate cries of women and children in the distance and near away, Zhang Cheng's heart ached like a knife.

Maybe it's a lot better now, right? Zhang Cheng and his big cattle have annihilated some of the Japanese troops who have infiltrated the city around the security zone, which has not only stabilized the city defense, but also bought time for the refugees to enter the security zone. But he knew that there were still a large number of civilians trapped in the city of Nanjing, and he needed manpower, and he needed a lot of manpower to tell the civilians the location of the safe zone.

The security zone does not contain soldiers, Zhang Cheng and Da Niu walked all the way, and the refugees who were blocking the road in front of them ordered to give way to avoid the two, and no one dared to ask where did these two people covered in gunpowder smoke and blood stains and dust come from? What are you here for? Some refugees even thought that Zhang Cheng and the others were going to break into the safe zone with guns to take refuge, and the arrival of Zhang Cheng and the others immediately conveyed a panic to the refugees outside the safe zone.

Behind the rejection of the horse stood the German soldiers guarding here, led by a sergeant who had met with Zhang Cheng, who suddenly saw Zhang Cheng and the Da Niu brothers coming back, and hurriedly beckoned a few guys with him to move away from the rejection and let Zhang Cheng and the two come in. Waving at the German soldier to signal that he would not go in, Zhang Cheng took the iron horn that the soldier had placed on the side of the horse and jumped onto the sandbag that served as a cover.

"The devils are about to enter the city, and the devils who enter the city may let go of the civilians in the safe zone, but they will definitely hunt down the soldiers who are mixed with the civilians and kill them all." Zhang Cheng raised the tin horn and shouted at the refugees who refused to leave the horse. "I know there are soldiers among you who have taken off their uniforms and want to blend into the safe zone, but I warn you, don't think it's safe to sneak in. They will scrutinize all the strong men in civilian clothing, and they will look at the hands of the strong men to see if there are any calluses left by long-term contact with firearms."

In the refugee group, many veterans who had lost their weapons and uniforms followed Zhang Cheng's voice, and they would unconsciously look down at the calluses on their fingers that had been sharpened by the trigger. "The devil will also ask the strong men to take off their clothes, look at their shoulders, and see if there are any traces left by long-term gun support on their shoulders" In the refugee group, many of the defeated soldiers who wore civilian uniforms unconsciously pressed their hands on their chest sockets that supported the handle of their guns, and unbuttoned their shirts to sneak a glance with their eyes.

"Once the Japanese army breaks through the city, they will think that they are the victors and make all kinds of regulations, and those who violate these rules may have only one end, and that is death. When the Japanese soldiers see people with marks on their chests and shoulders, and people with calluses on their fingers, whether you are a soldier or not, you will be killed" Zhang Cheng's words made more and more people in the refugee group look at each other's expressions, and their faces were full of panic.

"I know that you may not want to do this, and you don't want to leave your brother's robes and pretend to be civilians to escape alone, the war is unfavorable and the situation is rotten, but if it were me, I might have made the same choice as you. But now it's different, Nanjing's city defense was broken by the Japanese army is a foregone conclusion, you are hiding, and even discarding your weapons and uniforms, but do you really think that the Japanese army will let you, the strong men who have fought in the war, continue to live? ā€œ

"Stretch out your head and shrink your head or a knife, why don't you let yourself die like a real soldier?" Zhang Cheng snapped, shocking the routs in the crowd. "Instead of being stabbed to death by the Japanese army with bayonets, buried alive by the Japanese army, and shot by the Japanese army en masse like a dog, why can't you pick up your weapons again and fight the Japanese army to the death? It's all going to die, can you let yourself die like a man? Zhang Cheng's voice blew through the crowd like a violent wind, and it smashed into the hearts of those routs like a heavy hammer.

"I need manpower now, I need a lot of people, I need people to follow up the Japanese soldiers in the city after the city is broken, and I need locals who are familiar with Nanjing City to notify civilians in other areas to take refuge in the safe zone." Zhang Cheng looked around at the large crowd in front of him, and finally raised the little finger of his right hand and laughed wildly, "If it's a master, stand up, don't let me underestimate you, my brother is only 18 years old, and he already dares to follow me to find trouble with the little devil, but don't tell me that you are not even as good as my brother." ā€

The refugees outside the horse were in an uproar, everyone knew that the guns were going out all the time in the city, and no one would think that they had lived long Zhang Cheng's words were full of danger, and the refugees looked left and right to see if anyone would stand up and follow the man on the sandbag to fight with the little devil who entered the city.
