No. 88: Storming Wuxi (First Shift)

Listening to everyone's discussion, Tang Shengzhi couldn't help frowning and waved his hand unhappily: "Enough!" ”

Everyone was suddenly quiet when Tang Shengzhi drank like this, although some of them were unconvinced, but at this time, Tang Shengzhi was indeed the commander of Nanjing's city defense appointed by the national political axe.

So no matter how dissatisfied I am in my heart, I can only hold back and endure it.

After drinking everyone, Tang Shengzhi suddenly got up and said to Chen Cheng in a cold tone: "Brother Cixiu, please tell the commission, Nanjing is the capital of our country and the mausoleum of the father of the nation, and Tang will never give up an inch of land even if he tries his best!" ”

"Brother Meng Xiao, you have to see the current situation clearly, don't be rash, the Yamada detachment of the army has crossed the Yangtze River and captured Yangzhou, and now the troops are rushing straight to ** and Yizheng, and they will soon be able to threaten Pukou, once Pukou is critical, then the consequences will be unimaginable." Chen Cheng continued calmly.

"Enough!" Tang Shengzhi was furious when he heard this, his eyes swept over Chen Cheng like a knife, and he said coldly: "General Chen, please don't forget, I am the commander of the Nanjing garrison appointed by the commission, so whether Nanjing can be defended is not up to you!" ”

"You..."Chen Cheng, who had been forbearing, finally couldn't bear it anymore at this time, he blindly forbeared, but he never thought that Tang Shengzhi didn't take him seriously at all, so that he couldn't get off the stage.

Tang Shengzhi didn't care about Chen Cheng's angry gaze and said coldly: "General Chen, this commander just issued the No. 36 combat order of Wei Shen Zuozi yesterday, don't you know?" ”

"You..." Chen Cheng was speechless for a moment, and his face turned red with anger.

Luo Zhuoying, the deputy commander next to him, saw that the situation was a little embarrassing, and hurriedly stepped forward to play a round and said: "General seat, Brother Ci Xiu is just here to convey the meaning of the commission, the current enemy, we should unite as one." ”

"That's right! I'm here to convey the meaning of the commission. Chen Cheng hurriedly moved Chairman Jiang out as if he had grasped a straw.

"Hmph, the general will not be affected by the order of the foreign monarch, besides, at present, Nanjing is far from being able to hold on, and the soldiers on the front line are still resisting bravely, and it is too early to withdraw!" Tang Shengzhi still said coldly and masked.

Luo Zhuoying saw that Chen Cheng's face was wrong, so she quietly pushed Tang Shengzhi with her hand and whispered: "Brother Meng Xiao, don't be rash, be calm......"

"Luo Zhuoying, do you want to trap me for disloyalty and injustice? Retreat now? You go and ask the 700,000 fathers and elders in Nanjing City if they agree? You go and ask the thousands of heroic souls who died at the forefront if they agree? Tang Shengzhi retorted loudly that he didn't eat hard and soft.

Then he sighed and said: "It's okay to retreat now, you have to bear the historical responsibility!" ”

As soon as Tang Shengzhi's words came out, both Chen Cheng and Luo Zhuoying became silent, and they were unwilling and did not dare to carry the huge historical responsibility of losing the capital Nanjing, which might stain their careers and military political careers.

Just when everyone fell into an awkward silence, suddenly a rush of footsteps sounded outside the conference room, and everyone looked up when they heard the sound, only to see a colonel's communications staff officer walking in hurriedly.

The colonel's communications staff officer hurriedly came to Tang Shengzhi and the others, and after standing up and saluting everyone one by one, he immediately said loudly: "Headquarters, according to the latest information sent by the agents of the Wuhu Station of the Military Command Bureau, the 18th Division and the Guoqi Detachment of the Yue Army who have arrived in Wuhu have now returned to Xuancheng. ”

"What? Returned to the army? Everyone including Tang Shengzhi was very surprised.

"What the hell is going on? The devil finally captured Wuhu, and now he did not cross the Yangtze River to the west to threaten my rear in Nanjing, but returned to the division? What the hell is going on? Tang Shengzhi asked puzzled.

"Commander, it can't be a tiger bunch, right?" Liu Xing, the deputy commander next to him, who had not spoken for a long time, said thoughtfully.

"A ball of tigers?" Tang Shengzhi looked at Liu Xing suspiciously.

"Yes, it's the Tiger Ben Regiment, since the Battle of Gaochun, the Tiger Ben Regiment has disappeared for the past two days, there is no news, and the reason why the 18th Division of the Army and the Kunisaki Detachment were transferred back to the division is mostly because of the Tiger Ben Regiment." Liu Xing nodded and replied.

"Think about it, otherwise, how could the 18th Division and the Kunisaki Detachment of the Yue Army withdraw without crossing the river. But it's a pity that the ability of the Tiger Regiment is limited, and it can only mobilize the 18th Division, and not the entire army outside Nanjing, otherwise it can also win us some respite. Tang Shengzhi said with some regret.

"Commander Tang, I have already passed on the meaning of the commission, you can watch it!" Chen Cheng put down this sentence, then turned around and strode away.

"Commander, what shall we do?" After seeing Chen Cheng leave, Liu Xing asked with a frown, and the eyes of the other people present also turned to Tang Shengzhi.

"What to do? Resolutely carry out the No. 36 combat order of the Wei Staff, we swear to live and die with Nanjing, and order all troops to dare to retreat without authorization and abandon an inch of land will be subject to military law! Tang Shengzhi waved his hand impatiently.

"Yes!" Liu Xing and the others got up one after another and responded to the promise, and then turned around and left with solemn faces one by one.

…………………

The straight-line distance between Yixing and Wuxi is only more than 50 kilometers, and the real distance is more than 60 kilometers. The march was very smooth along the way, and it was not harassed and bombed by the devil planes, and Qiao Anbang guessed that it was probably the battalion led by the eldest brother that attracted the attention of the devil planes. In fact, Qiao Anguo and the first battalion were bombed and harassed by devil planes, and they were almost wiped out, but this is a later story.

After nearly an hour of rapid marching, Qiao Anbang led the main force of the Tiger Ben Regiment and finally arrived at a small town called Yangji Town, which was less than five kilometers away from Wuxi City.

Because the north gate of the wireless is guarded here, the devil even stationed a squad of troops in this town.

However, this amount of strength was simply vulnerable in front of thousands of tiger regiments armed to the teeth, and without the main force, dozens of panicked devil soldiers were wiped out with only a reconnaissance company and an infantry platoon.

At this time, in the south of the Yangtze River, the devils did not build bunkers and turrets everywhere like they did in North China 40 years later, in fact, the devils did not even have a decent fortification in this town.

The reason why a small team of troops will be deployed here is nothing more than to play the role of an early warning, and when the reconnaissance company launched an attack on the devils, the devils did report the situation to Wuxi City by phone, and at this moment the devils in Wuxi City have learned of the appearance of the Tiger Ben Regiment.

Stepping off the armored command vehicle, Qiao Anbang strode into the town where there had just been a fierce exchange of fire, surrounded by Wang Gensheng and other guards, and at this moment, the only narrow street in the center of the town had been alerted by the officers and men of the Tiger Ben Regiment with loaded guns and ammunition.

As soon as he walked not far, Zhang Xudong, the commander of the reconnaissance company, ran over with a hurried face.

Seeing Zhang Xudong's hurried expression, Qiao Anbang took the lead in asking, "Xudong, what's wrong?" ”

"Tuanza, our whereabouts may be exposed." Zhang Xudong said with a solemn face.

"Exposed? What's going on? Qiao Anbang asked puzzled.

"Tuanza, I found the telephone and telephone line that could be destroyed in the future at the devil's team headquarters, the telephone line was cut from the room, it is obvious that this was destroyed by the devil before he died, not cut by our people, then before this, the devil must have reported the situation to the army in Wuxi City by phone, so the devil in Wuxi must know our whereabouts now." Saying that, Zhang Xudong said with a face full of self-blame: "It's a lowly negligence, please punish the group!" ”

Qiao Anbang first patted Zhang Xudong on the shoulder, and then said thoughtfully and coldly: "Exposed, exposed, since the sneak attack can't be successful, then we will attack!" ”

"Assault?"

"Yes, it's a strong attack!" Qiao Anbang nodded very decisively. At this moment, he can no longer afford to hesitate, he can wait, but Nanjing can't wait, in order to save hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Nanjing City from being destroyed, even if there is a sea of swords and fires in front of Qiao Anbang, he is not afraid.

So what if the devil is prepared? The Tiger Regiment is well-equipped and has strong firepower, and this time there is no intention to go back alive, the officers and soldiers of the whole regiment all have the tragic mentality of killing one and killing two to earn one, the fighting spirit is high, and the morale is like a rainbow, even if the devils in Wuxi City are prepared, Qiao Anbang is also confident that he will break through the city defense of the devils in one fell swoop!
