Chapter 116: Blood and Tears in Nanjing

When it comes to Nanjing, we have to mention the first emperor of ancient China, Qin Shi Huang. "Jingding Jiankang Zhi" recorded: "My father said that Qin (the first emperor) was disgusted with the spirit of the southeast king, and the gold caster was buried here. "So Nanjing has a very unique nickname, Jinling, but some people say that Qin Shi Huang dug up the dragon vein of Nanjing, and the dynasty that built the capital of Nanjing has not lasted long.

However, regardless of the legend, Nanjing is indeed a place that cannot be forgotten in the trend of Chinese history, and the ancient poet wrote that the Qinhuai in the south is brightly lit, and the pavilions and pavilions surround the river embankment; Sheng's song is full of wine and Suzaku, and ancient books are full of Wuyijing's sentences.

The prosperity here is not only a memory in the minds of the people, but also a paradise in the hearts of poets, this is the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, how many talented and beautiful people left their stories, but now they are going to fall into the hands of the enemy, as a Chinese, it is impossible not to be sad.

In 1936, the time was earlier than in history, but who can guarantee that the Japanese army will not again act against hundreds of thousands of defenseless Chinese, that is hundreds of thousands of living beings, the Japanese will be proud when they worship their ghost society, and when we worship our massacre memorial, in addition to sadness and anger, there is also that pity, pity for those hundreds of thousands of lives.

He Yingqin is not a traverser, of course he doesn't know what Liu Yuanwei's face is always changing, but he knows that Lu Dao is the young commander with natural talent in front of him, and he is powerless in the face of hundreds of thousands of elite Japanese troops.

In front of Liu Yuan's eyes, the scene of two Japanese officers slashing and killing Chinese suddenly flashed, Liu Yuan knew that this was his hallucination, but he did not wake up immediately, he wanted to let this illusion stimulate his brain and make the blood in his chest completely warm.

He Yingqin was very dissatisfied with Liu Yuan's insistence on defending Nanjing, and his voice was a little stiff, "Fuguo, Nanjing can't be defended, this is not the famous place of your Northern Expedition, and the Japanese are not comparable to Sun Chuanfang." ”

"When the overlord Xiang Yu fought against the water, he didn't think about whether he could succeed." Liu Yuan really didn't have a lot of confidence in his heart, but he had a general plan, part of the troops of the First Army had already supported Wuhu, plus the 74th Army, it was still possible to block the Japanese, then the next thing was the Japanese army who rushed from Shanghai, Liu Yuan gathered a large number of guerrillas in Dabie Mountain, and they would be the main force to destroy the rear of the Japanese army.

"I have 120,000 troops, all of them are my carefully trained troops, they have the world's first-class equipment, they have tanks, they have their own exclusive aircraft, why should I have a trace of discouragement towards the Japanese army?" Liu Yuan tortured himself again.

"What if Wuhu is also lost? The Japanese will complete their outflanking of you. He Yingqin didn't care whether his words would hit Liu Yuan, but at least he didn't want Liu Yuan to die in Nanjing as soon as he became a general.

"Dabie Mountain will mobilize more than hundreds of thousands of people for me, they have helped us build tens of thousands of ships, the fighters are not smooth, those boats can take us across the Yangtze River at any time." Liu Yuan explained that everyone thought that Dabie Mountain had failed, but many people stayed, and they silently continued to exist as tinder.

"Even the chairman of the committee thought that as soon as Jiang Xianyun died, Dabie Mountain would be gone, but I didn't expect your influence there to still be so great, but you seem to have forgotten that the Japanese warships can sail into the Yangtze River." He Yingqin reminded Liu Yuan.

"Impossible, only light cruisers and some destroyers of smaller tonnage can enter the river, but we have our own fighter planes, as well as heavy artillery units, and the Japanese warships will not dare to enter the river easily." Having said that, in fact, in Liu Yuan's heart, he still doesn't have much confidence.

"I can't say anything about you, but the Japanese army is really not as bad as you imagined, Chen Cheng is not an ordinary person, and he has not come to this point, if the country does not have so many traitors, life will not be so sad, I hope you will do it yourself." He Yingqin advised Liu Yuan and said.

"The chairman asked you to come to me for something." Liu Yuan asked He Yingqin, at this time, Chen Cheng should not come to him, he should also be in extreme busyness.

"The principal was moved by what you said, and he was ready to mobilize his strength to do it again with the Japanese in Nanjing, but he knew your temper, so let me talk to you and listen to your thoughts, now many things dare not be talked about at the conference, and the speed at which the little devil obtains information is really not blown." He Yingqin said mockingly.

Liu Yuan also smiled and said, "But isn't it?" The content of our meeting is clear in Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningxia, and you say that the principal has any secrets to speak of, so everyone knows that as long as he fights the impossible battle of Nanjing, he will have to bear a heavy responsibility, so I hope that the chairman of the committee will agree to me a few conditions. ”

"Say, as long as it's not too much, I'll be here to promise you for the headmaster." He Yingqin nodded and said that before coming this time, Chiang Kai-shek told himself the bottom line.

"To form the Nanjing camp, the director of the Nanjing camp must be me, and all the troops in the Nanjing area are under my command, and I have the right to mobilize national reserve materials, including heavy weapons." After Liu Yuan finished speaking, he looked at He Yingqin.

He Yingqin nodded decisively and said, "You are now a second-level general, and you can be regarded as a real giant, and this power can be given to you by the central government." ”

Liu Yuan saw that He Yingqin had agreed so decisively, so he guessed that he and Chiang Kai-shek had probably already discussed it, so he continued, "Re-announce the practice of military companies, all violations will be punished severely, there is no distinction between miscellaneous cards and descendants on the battlefield, and anyone who does not obey the order will be shot." Liu Yuan's words were very cold, but they were very stressful, He Yingqin also thought about it for a long time this time before nodding, "Shang Fang's sword can be given to you, but you need to be calm when you use it." ”

"Third, the general is outside, the military order is not subject to it, before the end of the defense of Nanjing, I, Liu Yuan, am the supreme commander of Nanjing, and the principal has no right to transfer me." Speaking of this, Liu Yuan was a little dissatisfied, if it wasn't for Chiang Kai-shek's temporary change of generals, how could Songhu Convention and Exhibition fight so badly. Liu Yuan knew very well what kind of command ability Chiang Kai-shek had, and if he commanded millions of troops, it would be fatal.

He Yingqin also knew that Chiang Kai-shek had this problem, and said to Liu Yuan, "I am not sure about this matter, but I can tell the principal that I believe that after the incident in Shanghai, the principal himself will definitely pay attention to a lot." ”

Liu Yuan no longer spoke, but He Yingqin said, "According to the meaning of the chairman, even if you retreat, someone must defend Nanjing, after all, this is Kyoto, and the prime minister's mausoleum is still here, so the guard always has to be guarded, originally Tang Shengzhi was chosen to be the substitute ghost, but you stood up, I feel unworthy for you as a teacher, it is really unwise, but since you choose to take responsibility, do this thing well, history and appointment can't forget you." I will also give you the greatest support. Remember, if you can't hold it, don't blindly obey, Dai Li has a way to take you away from Nanjing. ”
