Chapter 692: Songhu (I)

"When Xincang was captured on August 5, more than 200 people were killed, and the bodies were not claimed by their families, and more than 70 bodies were collected by the townspeople. On the 18th of the same month, when the enemy entered Xindai, he opened the way with machine gun fire, and slaughtered more than 80 people. The population of Yeziwei in the nearby area was more than 300, the enemy was entrenched for 3 days, killing more than 60 people, and the women were confined to a room after being raped, and killed with a bayonet inserted into the pubic area. ”

In the conference room of the National Defense Forces, Wang Yajiao, with red eyes and a snorting panting, reported to the senior leaders of the National Defense Forces present the situation in Zhejiang......

"On August 8, the Japanese stormtroopers stormed into Xitang in Jiashan and killed 56 residents. On August 15, the Japanese army broke into Xincheng and tortured 13 captured Jiaxing county government personnel to death with criminal laws such as amputation, disembowelment, heart gouging, and beheading! On the 16th, the enemy army broke into Wangjiangjing, Jiaxing, and in an instant, more than 20 civilians died under the knife and gun, and more than 1,300 houses were burned, and the fire was not extinguished for three days......"

Speaking of which, the atmosphere of the entire conference room has become extremely solemn! A tyranny, anger is being ignited, fermenting! From the commander-in-chief Tu Qianjun to the commanders of the various legions, their eyes were red! It looked like it was going to swallow a living person!

"On August 19, the Japanese army invaded Jiaxing from Pinghu, passing through Xinfeng Town, burning and plundering the whole town, killing every person, after the Pinghu wood merchant surnamed Xu put a coffin for burial, and the deceased used more than 150 coffins."

"The Japanese army raped women on a large scale in the town, and a young woman from a family in Miaohe Bridge was thrown into Pinghu Pond and drowned after being ravaged. The girl Sambo struggled to resist and was stabbed to death. Some girls refused to commit suicide by throwing themselves into the lake. The Japanese raped and killed the women, doused the bodies with gasoline and burned them in the flames. ”

Wang Yajiao's voice became louder and louder, and his voice became more and more excited! That anger is about to erupt from his chest!

On September 23, the Japanese army entered the county town of Chongde and fired indiscriminate fire at private houses, reducing 52 shops and houses in the city to ashes. The inhabitants who did not flee were slaughtered, some with knives to cut off half of their heads, and some cut off their palms and hung them on trees! On the same day, more than 1,000 houses in Shimenwan were burned down. Feng Zikai's residence Yuanyuantang and Zhang Qinqiu's alma mater, Zhenhua Girls' School, were all burned down. The Japanese army killed people like hemp in the town, and the dead bodies were eaten by wild dogs, and the wild dogs still barked and chased people for many days afterwards......"

"The Japanese army set up sentry posts everywhere to interrogate and search the Chinese, and when they walked to the Japanese sentry posts, they had to bow, and if they did not agree, they would be beaten and punished for kneeling. In the worst cases, they can be detained or even killed. Jiaxing painter Yu Wenzai was killed for disobeying the Japanese army's inspection. Japanese soldiers who entered the city broke into people's homes in groups to loot their property and rape women......"

Wang Yajiao couldn't read it anymore, but Tu Qianjun said fiercely with a cold face: "Read on!" Announcement!! I want the people of the entire three eastern provinces to know what these miscellaneous things have done!! ”

Wang Yajiao was silent for a while, and continued to read in a trembling voice: "According to my reports from the personnel around the city, the Japanese army is extremely rampant, and there are Japanese people in the four cities (gates) of Yi, and they can only be released if they take off their hats and bow to the Japanese. There are villagers who take off their hats and do not bow. There are those who bow and do not take off their hats, and there are those who do not take off their hats and do not bow when they hold their heads high, and the Japanese may drape their cheeks. Or make him kneel. ”

"A country woman from the south gate into, to do not bow so, covered under the vat, fortunately a mason, take a brick cushion cylinder mouth, after more than ten minutes to release, has been dying, half a day of Su. A farmer in Dongxiang entered Dongcheng with an old woman, took off his hat and bowed, but he wore his hat without entering the city. The Japanese dragged it to the bank of the river and threw it into the river......"

"Bang!!" There was a loud bang, but I saw the tiger-eyed Tu Sanpao slam his fist on the table! The table suddenly "boom~" suddenly turned into broken wood all over the ground!

"I'll fuck him to death the ancestor of the eighth generation of the Oriental Son!!"

Wang Yajiao didn't read it anymore, put down the file and said in a deep voice to everyone: "This is the situation in Jiaxing City now, but even so, there are still people who make dogs for Japanese people!" They became traitors and led the way for the Japanese!! ”

Tu Sancang's teeth clenched loudly. The green tendons on the hands are bursting up! And the Wehrmacht was panting and panting, and their eyes were blue!

"After the Japanese army invaded and occupied various places, they quickly organized county and town maintenance meetings, and organized military police and intelligence organizations." Wang Yajiao paused, took out a list and said in a deep voice to everyone: "The most authors in Jiaxing are Guo Jianshi, Xu Pucheng, Zhang Ximin, Shen Hanqing, Zhao Tingyu, and Zhu Shangwen...... Wait. ”

"Guo Jianshiyuan was a hooligan in Xincheng Town, and when the Japanese army invaded, he greeted the Japanese army on the Sujia Highway and organized a maintenance meeting. Most of the traffic and leading the way were organized by him. Xu Pucheng, formerly the head of the Taihu Lake Marine Police District, was recommended by Guo Xiangri to organize the puppet army to serve as the division commander and the commander of the first appeasement area......"

"Externally, they call themselves 'the president of the Great Japanese Empire's Sujia Lake Maintenance Association and the Jiaxing Maintenance Association'. Help the Japanese army to collect food, send husbands, set up sentry posts, maintain transportation, and at the same time lure the fleeing residents to return to the city......"

"If the government retreats, the bandits and the people will be stupid! Looting, kidnapping, and homicide are on the rise. Some people collect scattered guns, recruit stragglers, and organize teams to "fight against Japanese guerrillas" in the name of doing evil, and each dominates one side! ”

"For example, there are such armed forces in Xitang, Ganyao, Yangmiao, Taozhuang, Tianning, Dayun, and Zhangjinghui in Jiashan County, extorting people's wealth and harming the localities. The most famous person, Chen Ayou's department, has hundreds of guns, waving the blue sky and white sun flag, and extorting huge 'military salaries' from the Xitang Chamber of Commerce......"

"Chop Pieces!!" Su Zongzhe, the chief of staff who rarely swears, said fiercely with a grim face, this kind of person has always been indispensable! The country is in trouble, but they try their best to be traitors and make a fortune! Feed all your conscience to the dogs!

After a pause, Wang Yajiao said solemnly: "However, there are also those who resist serving the country!" Pinghu Chen Xinmin Watch Group, this is the earliest team organized. 'Yellow Eight Sisters with Two Guns', after the outbreak of war, organized personnel to resist Japan and kill the enemy with guerrilla warfare. ”

"Jiaxing Oil Truck Port Gu Liezhi's Self-Defense Force, Gu Liezhi once participated in the National Revolutionary Movement and worked in Feng Yuxiang's department. After the outbreak of war, the troops were organized to resist the Japanese army. Wangdiantai Shiqiao Zhou Wenhuan Department, once led the militia to intercept the remnants of the Beiyang warlords, and later organized silk production, supply and marketing cooperatives for the benefit of farmers, with local prestige, once served as the head of the township and district. After the outbreak of the war, the Anti-Japanese Self-Defense Force was spontaneously organized to fight against the Japanese army......"

"Jiajia belongs to the Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army, which was initiated and organized by Jiang Weixian, a lawyer in Jiaxing and the person in charge of the "People's Daily", and Jiang himself served as the first captain."

Tu Qianjun nodded, and then said in a deep voice: "Let our people go over, and give cover everywhere to support them to continue the battle!" Also, try to train them as much as possible. We are responsible for the bereavement pension, and the families of all the sacrificed personnel will come to the three eastern provinces under the cover of martyrs' status! You ask Jensen to arrange a cargo ship for you to do this......"

Wang Yajiao kept nodding his head, recording the words Tu Qianjun said one by one. These are to be put into practice, and there is no armed force of its own. Relying on attacks from "crows".

And the crows are only known by a few people such as Tu Qianjun, Su Zongzhe, Tu Sanpao and Wang Yajiao. Externally, all the names are "our people", which does not involve the number, personnel, number, or even belonging, and is all confidential.

Shanghai, August 16, 1937.

Now the atmosphere in Shanghai is extremely tense, and on July 7, the two sides have already clenched each other! However, the Japanese army was temporarily stopped, and the Nanjing government also acquiesced in the truce because it was not ready.

One of the reasons for the armistice was the defeat of the Korean War. The other is that they decided to wait for naval support, and the defeat of North Korea made them afraid to take risks! Everyone was waiting for the aircraft carriers and warships that came from the Navy.

On 11 August, in order to support the Shanghai operation, the Japanese Navy used aircraft carriers such as Kaga, Akagi, Ryuchamp, and Fengxiang to fight in the Yushan area outside the mouth of the Yangtze River.

In addition to the five cruisers of the Japanese 1st and 3rd fleets at Wusongkou, the cruisers of the second class such as Kawauchi, Yura, Natori, and Kinu, as well as the new first-class destroyers such as Shiyu, Shiraro, Sunset, Ariake, Hatsushuang, Ziri, Wakaba, and Hatsuharu, anchored near Songhu as early as 10 August.

On the same day, the Japanese army demanded that the Nanjing government remove the Shanghai security team and its fortifications, and at the same time use more than 20 warships to escort transport ships to Shanghai to replenish military supplies, and send additional Japanese marines (about 3,200 people) to organize Shanghai soldiers and volunteers in the countryside at the same time! At this time, the Japanese army in Shanghai was as high as 50,000!

At 6 p.m. on August 11, the Presidential Palace in Nanjing.

In the conference room, Jiang Zhongzheng and his staff frowned and said nothing. The Nanjing government was very hesitant about Japan's moves, so Jiang Zhongzheng asked Yu Hongjun and others to discuss.

"It is very incompatible that Japan agrees to a diplomatic solution to this case and on the other hand threatens to increase its troops. I should be careful, beware of the movements of the Japanese, and do not confuse them......" Yu Hongjun pondered for a while, and said to Jiang Zhongzheng.

And Jiang Zhongzheng couldn't help sighing, now it's not a question of not wanting to fight, it's a question of whether he can't fight.

"No matter what the situation is, Shanghai can't afford to lose. Even if you lose, you should resist the enemy. Otherwise, the prestige of the government will plummet......" Yang Yongtai saw that Jiang Zhongzheng was silent, and hurriedly said.

Jiang Zhongzheng suddenly woke up to the fact that Guangdong had lost and the National Defense Army had withstood the Japanese attack in Korea, which made Nanjing extremely humiliated! If some achievements are not made, it is estimated that the Nanjing government will really collapse......

At 21 o'clock, the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government ordered Zhang Zhizhong to "besiege Shanghai"!

The Japanese consulate in Shanghai accused the squadron of violating the 128 Shanghai Armistice Agreement, and the mayor of Shanghai, Yu Hongjun, solemnly refuted it, but at the same time, an extremely unexpected thing happened: British, American, French, and Italian diplomats asked the Nationalist Government to list Shanghai as an undefended city!

** The attack was originally scheduled to start before dawn on the 13th, but because the British and American envoys in China were mediating, Jiang Zhongzheng dared to attack indiscriminately, and quickly ordered Zhang Zhizhong on the front line to suspend the offensive: "I hope to wait for orders, don't do it!" And it is necessary to avoid the clash of small forces! ”

The future of Shanghai is once again confusing...... (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
