Chapter 440: The situation is not good
"What are you burning the ship for?" Master Hu was surprised when he heard that the ship had begun to burn in Nanjing, and hurriedly asked, he also pointed to the boat to cross the river and evacuate, Chief Tang wanted to express his determination to live and die with Nanjing City, just talk about it, why do you have to burn the boat? Isn't this blocking the retreat of so many soldiers and civilians in Nanjing? How can there be such a thing?
"I want to learn from the Chu Overlord to break the cauldron and sink the boat! But I don't want to think about it, does he have the ability of the Chu Overlord? The division commander said with disdain on his face, he couldn't understand that the more at this time, the more confused the high-ranking officials above became, tossing and turning, and they were almost going to make the people miserable!
"It's ridiculous nonsense, if I am in Nanjing City, I will definitely not agree with him doing this, and I will burn all the boats, so how can those ordinary people in Nanjing City escape?" Master Hu felt that the matter was serious, more than a hundred times more serious than he expected, and the above methods were getting more and more ridiculous, it seems that this Han Fei and Lao Xu are reliable, if the city of Nanjing is broken at that time, they will only have to rely on themselves to seek more blessings, it is estimated that Zhenjiang will be defeated here, and there will not be too many divisions under him who can survive.
Division Commander Hu thought about giving up Zhenjiang and crossing the river and retreating to the mountains of northern Anhui, but he thought that he was a soldier, and the country raised him and his subordinates just to defend against the invading enemy at the gate of the national capital today? If you retreat, you may be able to save your life, but I am afraid that the infamy of a lifetime will not be washed away by jumping into the Yangtze River, the tree wants bark, the person wants face, he is the little fellow of the chairman of the committee, and he is also the commander of the Central Army, he can't escape from the battle if he says anything, and he does this kind of dirty thing that is scolded by the people poking his backbone, even if he really wants to die, he will die vigorously, and it is the greatest honor for a soldier to die fighting against foreign enemies on the battlefield!
Master Hu's thinking immediately changed, he decided to fight the devil here in Zhenjiang, and gave up all kinds of suspicions about Han Fei and Lao Xu, and after explaining the matter at hand to Han Fei and Master Xu, he set off from Zhenjiang City with two brigades of troops and rushed to the front line of Danyang and Jurong to block the devil's troops.
Han Fei immediately divided his scouts into several groups and scattered them in the direction of Danyang and Jiangyin, according to the consistent virtue of the devil, the command of Nakajima must have moved forward with the main force, and his supplies should be placed in a relatively safe rear, Han Fei pondered on the map for a long time, and determined that the logistics base of the Nakajima devil should be near Jiangyin, and it is very likely that it is here in Jiangyin Fort.
And the news sent back by the brothers sent out to reconnoiter confirmed Han Fei's judgment, on the main road near the Jiangyin Fort, the devil's baggage convoy has been active frequently in the past few days, and the scouts judged that there were a large number of devil's supplies hidden in the underground warehouse of the fort.
After Han Fei received the news from the scouts, he immediately made combat arrangements, and the spy company was all dispatched, divided into three routes, Li Dagang and Zhao Yongfu each took a platoon to the Jiangyin Fort to take out the material warehouse of the Nakajima devils, and he and Haizi took a platoon to Jiangyin City to explore the headquarters of the Nakajima devils, if the headquarters of the Nakashima devils is no longer in Jiangyin City, then these people and horses brought by Han Fei and Haizi can turn around and meet Li Dagang and Zhao Yongfu.
Liu Ruye stayed here in Zhenjiang to train the brothers of these reinforced regiments that had just been expanded, although these brothers were carefully selected by Division Commander Hu from the three brigades under him, but in Han Fei's view, these officers and men must undergo special training for a while before they can keep up with the combat operations of the special service company, and they must correct their previous combat methods and concepts in training, and at least be able to cooperate with the troops of the special service company, otherwise once the fight starts, all kinds of situations on the battlefield will be complicated, and a big basket will be produced. In the ambush battle on the side of Xingang Town last time, it was the policemen under Regiment Commander Cen who ruined Haizi's original plan to annihilate the devil squadron, and this time the reinforced regiment must not make such a mistake again.
Liu Ruye was a little unconvinced, why could Li Dagang and Haizi lead the team to fight the devil, and they wanted to stay here to train the troops? But the division commander saw it and said to him: "Xiaoliu, the training troops are also anti-Japanese wars, let's fight devils here regardless of the front and rear, you stay here It is estimated that Brother Han asked you to watch the family, we can send a special operations team to the headquarters and warehouse of the devils, won't the devils send out an action team to deal with us?" I always feel that the little devil must be unwilling, so it's better to pay attention to the surrounding situation and be vigilant. ”
After the division commander's reminder, Liu Ruye was shocked, and felt that the division commander's reminder was too right, the little devils were repeatedly attacked by the spy company, they suffered losses, and they would definitely come to retaliate, as for what kind of method the devil used to come, he didn't know, he could only send more scouts to guard around.
So Liu Ruye hurriedly arranged the soldiers of the three battalions under his command in turn, the artillery battalion immediately spread out around the station, ready for battle, the other three infantry battalions took turns to train, only one battalion of brothers trained for a few hours, and the other two battalions were on guard and patrol within ten miles near the station, and set up a two-hour change of passcode, once any unfamiliar faces appeared nearby, report immediately, forward scouts and sentries in an emergency, can fire without asking for instructions!
Seeing that Liu Ruye was arranged in an orderly manner, the division commander smiled and said to those henchmen around him: "Brother Han's subordinates have also been trained, I think he has no problem commanding a division, we old things are also old, and we will have to rely on them young people to fight devils in the future." ”
"Master, you're not old, I think at least you can beat away the little devils." One of the division commander's cronies hurriedly flattered.
"Don't slap me on the back, I don't know myself yet? Originally, this life should have been left in Jiangyin Fort, Brother Han pulled me out, and it was a fluke to be alive now, looking at the current momentum of the devils, we have to drive them away, it is estimated that it will not be possible in more than ten years? The division commander said, his face gloomy, and it could be seen that he was not very optimistic about the future of the war.
Indeed, at this time, Nanjing, the capital of the National Government, is about to be surrounded by the devil's heavy division, and the nearby **** troops are not ready to meet the devil's attack, can this block the devil's attack on Nanjing? As a veteran soldier who has been on the battlefield for a long time, the division commander certainly understands that the next situation will become more and more severe.
