Chapter 583: The People Go First
Fortunately, the two adjutants beside Chief Tang were clever, dragged Chief Tang to the roof, and came all the way from the roof, and rushed to the vicinity of Jinling Women's University earlier than those stragglers and refugees.
As soon as Chief Tang's adjutant saw the scene in front of him, he knew that it was not easy to run out, and said to Chief Tang: "The road to the dock in front has been blocked by the rebels, sir, let's take a detour, right?" ”
"How do you get around? The neighborhood was full of rebels and refugees, and I am afraid that I had to put on my wings and fly over. Chief Tang shook his head, thinking that this time he was planted here, and he couldn't get out!
One of the adjutant officers was clever, and when he saw that there was a barricade of the tax police corps in front of him, he hurriedly said to Chief Tang: "Go to the front and take a look, there is the tax police corps over there, and Commander Pan is a little familiar with me, and there must be a play when I find him!" ”
Chief Tang sighed and laughed at himself: "A dignified commander of the garrison, but now he has fallen to the point of losing his family, he really has no face to cross the river." ”
The adjutant hurriedly squeezed to the front, found Company Commander Li and pulled him aside and said, "Tell you about Commander Pan, Commander Tang is here!" ”
When Company Commander Li heard that Chief Tang was here, he still didn't believe it, so he asked the adjutant to provide his documents to verify his identity, and the adjutant hurriedly took out his documents and seals. Then he said to the adjutant: "Don't make a noise first, it's very chaotic here, I'll send someone to pick up Chief Tang over!" ”
When Chief Tang was hiding in the corner of the street and looking around, a group of soldiers from the Tax Police Corps came over and saluted him: "Sir, come with me, please come here!" ”
Follow these soldiers of the tax police corps to a ruin, those soldiers opened a manhole cover inside, a wellhead appeared inside, Chief Tang followed these soldiers down, inside is a secret passage, the dark passage is pitch black, Chief Tang was held by two cronies, anxiously marched for about a quarter of an hour, came to the ground, looked at it, it turned out that this was already the campus of Jinling Women's University, the huge campus was empty, only the soldiers patrolling with weapons in the distance were shaking.
Before Commander Tang could speak, an officer from an independent division ran over and said to him, "Commander Tang, Major Chen asked you to go, the rebels over there are going to make trouble!" It was the troops who defended the city and withdrew. ”
"Which Major Chen? What troops? "Chief Tang was at a loss for a while, he didn't know that there was a major Chen, and with his status as a first-class general, those junior officers of major or something really couldn't be reached.
"Admiral Chen's niece, military doctor Major Chen!" The officer nodded.
"Oh, it's my niece, take me to meet me right away!" As soon as Chief Tang heard that it was Admiral Chen's niece, he immediately went happily, Admiral Chen and him were both first-class generals, and their personal relations were not bad.
At the barricade, Chief Tang saw that a heroic female military doctor was arguing with a few majors, and the soldiers on both sides had already raised their weapons in their hands, and they did not back down, and there was a great posture of imminent explosion.
Looking at this tense posture, the adjutants beside Chief Tang shouted: "Don't do it, Chief Tang is here!" ”
The two majors, who were scolding and rolling up their sleeves and about to do something to the brothers of the tax police corps, sneered: "Where did you come from? When Chief Tang came, he had already run away on a small steamer. ”
Those stragglers immediately let out a burst of boos, and a few of them were dancing, they didn't believe that Chief Tang would come here at this moment, and suddenly the two majors saw that it was the general with three gold stars hanging on the collar badge next to Chen Wan'er, and their faces turned pale all of a sudden, and they didn't dare to shout anymore at that time.
At this moment, the brothers of the "fox" who were ordered to come to support Chen Wan'er and their side escorted the brigade commanders and division commanders who were caught from the Qinglou to Commander Tang. ”
"Hurry up, restrain your respective subordinates, and if you make trouble again, you will be killed!" Commander Tang shouted, and finally exerted his power for a while, and at this time, the power of his commander was reflected, and the brigade commanders and division commanders immediately shouted at their subordinates: "What the hell are you blocking here?" Don't go back yet! ”
Those stragglers ran towards the city at once, and the streets that were originally blocked immediately became empty, and the refugees who were hiding in the corners regrouped, Chen Wan'er said to Chief Tang: "Chief Tang, let those ordinary people withdraw first?" ”
"Yes, those people should be allowed to go first, but the boat has been burned by my order, even if it reaches the river, so many people can't cross the Yangtze River!" Chief Tang regretted it too much, he knew that if he fought like this, he should have kept those ships, and he originally wanted to show his determination in front of the chairman and the people of Nanjing, but he never thought that the troops defending the city would fight so much, and it would be chaotic all of a sudden, and it would be difficult to clean it up now.
"Don't worry about this Chief Tang, we have brought some boats near Bagua Island, and we can evacuate these ordinary people in batches." Chen Wan'er nodded.
"Ah, and the boat, this is good, this is good, then it is good." As soon as Chief Tang saw that things were still turning around, he hurriedly nodded his head again and again.
"Major Chen, when are we going to evacuate the river?" Chief Tang's cronies and adjutants are related, when will they be able to cross the river by boat?
Major Chen glanced at him, shook his head and said, "I can't be the master of this, I have to ask Han Fei to go." ”
"Okay, please inform Chief Han immediately, and say that our Chief Tang wants to call him directly." The adjutant was anxious to cross the river and run out, urging Chen Wan'er again and again.
Chen Wan'er nodded and asked the "fox" to send a report to Han Fei, but at this moment, Chief Tang waved his hand and said: "Don't send a report to Brother Han, they are still fighting devils on the Zhonghua Gate and Yuhuatai positions in the south of the city, how can I, as the supreme commander of Nanjing's urban defense, take the lead in withdrawing across the Yangtze River?" This is absolutely not good, if you want to go, you have to wait until Brother Han and they withdraw before leaving, with me, the stragglers of those troops will not block the streets in Nanjing, so that the people who fled in the city can run out first. ”
Hearing what Chief Tang said, she was in Chen Wan'er's arms, and she immediately signaled the "fox" to suspend the dispatch of the report, and quickly organized the villagers to evacuate to the riverside!
