At the beginning of November of the 26th year of the Republic of China, the Pheasant and the Longshan Military Camp of the Security Corps.

Today, the wind is cold, and there are snowflakes falling gently in the sky from time to time.

In contrast to the silence of the outside world, the Yongsan barracks was noisy and lively, and groups of heavily armed infantry rushed out of the barracks and lined up on the battlefield under the leadership of the officers.

Armoured combat vehicles rumbled out of the warehouse, and each of the 30 M3A1s of the armored commando had a 105 howitzer hanging behind it.

About half an hour later, the entire Longshan military camp was full of swords and guns, chariots lined up, and the murderous atmosphere was high.

Qiao Anbang and Qiao Anguo, dressed in brand-new military uniforms, strode out of the regiment headquarters surrounded by guards and came to the temporary point general platform on the field.

After taking the stage, Qiao Anbang looked around, and the field was full of groups of heavily armed soldiers, and the officers and soldiers were energetically lined up in a large phalanx, neat queues, and dense steel guns and bayonets made people's blood boil and be arrogant.

"Brothers, now it is said that the Kou has invaded my China, killed my compatriots, humiliated my country, and plundered my land, at the time of this national disaster, all the anti-Japanese fighters from all over the country are enthusiastically moving forward, swearing to resist, and our security regiment cannot be left behind. The fight doesn't stop! Expel the Kou! Give me back the rivers and mountains! ”

"Expelling the Kou! Give me back the rivers and mountains! ”

"Expelling the Kou! Give me back the rivers and mountains! ”

"Expelling the Kou! Give me back the rivers and mountains! ”

More than 5,000 soldiers of the security regiment raised their fists and shouted in unison!

"Let's go!" Qiao Anbang nodded with satisfaction, and immediately waved his hand.

"Yes!" All the officers and men responded to the promise and immediately began to board the bus in an orderly manner under the leadership of the battalion commanders. During the nearly three or four hundred kilometers he went to Nanjing, Qiao Anbang did not want his soldiers to march hundreds of kilometers on foot to participate in the battle in the cold and freezing weather, so that by the time the troops arrived in Nanjing, they would probably be exhausted before they had fought devils.

Therefore, he specially mobilized 200 military trucks to transport all the infantry, and with the tractors and ammunition trucks of the artillery battalion of the baggage troops, the total number of trucks in the regiment has reached nearly 500.

Nearly half an hour later, more than 5,000 officers and men basically boarded the car, Zhang Xudong was ordered to lead the reconnaissance company to take the lead in setting off, and more than 20 M3A1 armored search vehicles and dozens of side three-wheeled motorcycles took the lead out of the Longshan barracks, taking the first step in the iron-blooded journey of this iron and steel division.

The convoy drove out of the barracks in an orderly manner and slowly drove southwest. The health team lined up at the back of all the units, the last to leave the barracks, and when all the vehicles had already driven out of the barracks, Chu Yan quietly boarded the last truck.

The convoy of the forward reconnaissance company was forced to stop as soon as it reached the west gate of Pheasant and Ji, and Zhang Xudong, the commander of the reconnaissance company, got out of the car and took a look, only to see that the entire west gate was full of people, and the leader was still Qiao Siyuan, the old man.

Zhang Xudong hurriedly ordered someone to inform Qiao Anbang.

"There are a large number of people in the west of the city, and it seems that they want to see us off!" The Scout came to Joanbang's car and snapped to his feet.

"What? See off? Qiao Anbang and Qiao Anguo asked in surprise at the same time.

"Yes, it seems that the leader is still Old Man Qiao." The Scout replied with a bowed head.

The two brothers glanced at each other, then pushed the door at the same time and got out of the car, striding forward.

When I came to the front of the convoy, I saw that the entire west gate was full of people, and the crowd even filled the roads outside the city, and the city walls were also full of people.

"Dad, second brother!" Qiao Anbang saw Qiao Siyuan and Qiao Anjia in front of the crowd, and hurriedly stepped forward.

"Second child, Dad, why are you here? What's going on? Qiao Anguo asked with a puzzled expression.

"Yes, why are there so many folks?" Qiao Anbang glanced at the people around him and asked.

"Anguo, Anbang, my father knows that you are going to send troops to fight today, so I will bring the fathers and villagers of the whole city to do something for you! May you be able to kill more Japanese robbers on the battlefield and serve the country loyally! Qiao Siyuan said sonorously.

"Daddy!"; The brothers had a sour nose and almost wept.

"I want to be a beautiful China, and there have been many heroes for thousands of years; All dynasties and dynasties are extremely strong, and all the barbarians outside the country bow down to their ministers, but now China is weak in modern times, but they have to be bullied by the Oriental Japanese robbers, but all the sons and daughters of China are really ashamed of my Chinese ancestors and ancestors! Qiao Siyuan said this, and said sonorously: "Bang'er, you must remember to me that this time to send troops to resist is going to play the prestige of the best among us, and the Chinese man stands up to the sky, how can he be afraid of the Oriental clown!" For my father and my hometown, I will eat a pot of wine and wait for you to return triumphantly! ”

"Well, please rest assured, my son will fight bravely to kill the enemy, be loyal to the country, and be filial to the nation, as long as there is a breath left, we will fight to the end!" Qiao Anbang was deeply moved and immediately said.

"Big brother, third brother, the battlefield is unpredictable, you must take care of yourself, my father and I are waiting for your triumphant return at home." Qiao Anjia on the side stepped forward and said.

"Second brother, my brother will go out to fight this time, if he doesn't succeed, he will become benevolent, and if he succeeds, he will meet in his hometown, if he is unfortunately martyred, please do his filial piety on my behalf, and send our father to the end!" Jo Anbang spoke from the bottom of his heart.

"Alright, don't say these unlucky things! You and your eldest brother will return safely, and the three of us brothers will honor our father together and give him a pension and send him to the end of his life. Qiao Anjia said.

"Second brother, the Longshan military camp and factory will be handed over to you, we have left you an infantry company, if the strength is insufficient, then, you can recruit some new soldiers by yourself, expand your strength, you must protect the pheasant and set to protect the Longshan military camp and factory." Qiao Anguo instructed seriously.

"Well, don't worry, big brother. I will definitely protect the barracks and factories! Qiao Anjia nodded in response.

"The gongs and drums are beating! Soldiers for our children! Qiao Siyuan shouted loudly.

Some people holding suona gongs and leather drums suddenly began to blow, and some people gave up firecrackers, and under the leadership of Qiao Siyuan, the people stood on both sides of the road to make way for the security group.

"Be loyal to the country, expel Yuekou, and return my rivers and mountains!"

"Be loyal to the country, expel Yuekou, and return my rivers and mountains!"

Under the leadership of Zhang Xudong, more than 100 soldiers of the reconnaissance company shouted loudly, which immediately aroused the resonance of the people present and the officers and men of the whole regiment.

In the farewell of thousands of people, Qiao Anbang officially set out with all the officers and soldiers of the security regiment.

Qiao Anbang's march route formulated in advance was that the troops set off from Pheasant and Ji, and went south along the pot river through Mengcheng, Huaiyuan, Bengbu and other places to Nanjing Jiangbei, but due to the heavy snowfall in the entire northern Anhui region, the roads were muddy and difficult to walk, which brought great difficulties to the mechanized march of the security regiment.

It took ten days for the security regiment to arrive at Chuzhou, which was less than 100 miles away from Nanjing, and at this time the Battle of Songhu had completely ended, Shanghai had fallen, and the first troops were retreating towards Nanjing, and the prelude to the defense of Nanjing had begun.

After a brief rest in Chuzhou for a few hours, Qiao Anbang once again ordered the troops to set off, he must lead his troops to Nanjing as soon as possible, it is best to persuade the high-level of the national political axe to evacuate the people in advance, this is the most fundamental way to avoid the tragedy, Nanjing City is impossible to hold, even if Qiao Anbang's security group joins, it is only a matter of time before it falls.
