Chapter Eighty-Five: Bloody Fire in Nanjing (4)

Zhang Lingfu left Xue Ru's headquarters and returned to the division headquarters along the road with the guards. He walked very slowly, and as he walked, he was thinking about Xue Ru's words, killing? How can it be so simple?

Zhang Lingfu didn't think that Xue Ru was embarrassed for himself, from Xue Ru's natural expression and affirmative tone, he believed that he must have taught himself. If you don't understand it, you will be ridiculed.

As he walked, he muttered, "Kill, kill, only the dead can do nothing." ”

Shao Yuyong, the guard beside him, asked puzzledly: "Regiment leader, who are you going to kill?" ”

The two guards around Zhang Lingfu are his closest people and fellow villagers. If it weren't for the position, everyone would be brothers. also said: "I came to Xue Ru today to ask her how she used a corps to completely annihilate a wing of the Japanese army, but he told me two words, kill." I haven't figured it out yet. ”

Shao Yuyong smiled: "Commander, you are too real, Captain Xue is known as Snow Fox and nicknamed Fox Spirit, is she playing tricks on you?" ”

Zhang Lingfu glared at him: "Nonsense, I don't think Captain Xue is that kind of person, there must be some deep meaning." ”

Another guard, Zhang Shaoyang, is Zhang Lingfu's own brother, and he spoke even more casually, and said with a smile: "Isn't the head of the regiment in love with someone's family?" Chief Xue is indeed not bad. ”

"Fart" Zhang Lingfu scolded: "I just got married, what nonsense? ”

Zhang Shaoyang knew that this distant brother cared about feelings very much, and he was also very serious. But he was very good to his brothers, and he didn't care, he said whatever he wanted, but he opened his mouth and didn't say it.

Zhang Lingfu really cares about feelings, that is, he cares, he is resentful, and when he raises the gun to his wife, the sting of betrayal makes it difficult for him to contain his anger. In fact, he still loves his wife very much, so he has not been involved in feelings for several years. It's like an obligation to be with this wife, but she looks a little like Hailan.

glared at Zhang Shaoyang fiercely, still thinking about what Xue Ru meant by what he said. Shao Yuyong said: "That's not simple, kill the devils when you see them, and don't have to do anything when they die." ”

Zhang Lingfu's heart moved, and his inspiration flashed, yes! Didn't Xue Ru also remind him that dead people can't do anything. Shao Yuyong actually said the same, that is, what Xue Ru said is definitely reasonable, go back to the teacher to study it, and I can't say that I can study it. “

Wang Yaowu is going to rest, and after arranging the guards of the city wall, he will also fall down and rest, and tomorrow will still be a fierce battle, and the Japanese devils will not fail to attack, and the attack will be more fierce. Today's news says that the 16th Division will divide its forces to attack Shogunate Mountain and assist the 3rd Division in attacking Oolong Mountain Fortress. At the same time, the teaching corps on the Purple Mountain also resisted stubbornly, so the Japanese attack was not very strong.

Guanghua Gate, Zhonghua Gate direction, the 88th Division, the 87th Division, and even the brigade commanders have already gone to the front-line position. The divisional guards were also brought to the front, and the battle was very tragic.

Cracks have appeared in the city wall in the direction of Zhonghua Gate, and it is difficult to resist the bombardment of Japanese artillery, and once the city wall collapses, it will be difficult to block the Japanese attack. There is no hope of victory if it continues like this, it is only a matter of delaying time. But to what day? Wang Yaowu didn't know in his heart.

He prefers to engage in mobile warfare, which allows him to use the night to engage in sneak attacks and ambushes. However, this is a defensive operation, which restricts the tactical use of the troops, and they can only carry the aircraft and artillery of the devil.

The only planes also left, and tomorrow the walls will be exposed to the Japanese planes, and casualties are certain. It is the duty and honor of a soldier to protect his home and defend the country, and there is nothing to say.

Wang Yaowu, who let go of his thoughts, fell on the bed with his clothes, he had just collapsed, and the soldier outside the door said: "Report, Commander Zhang Lingfu asks to see." ”

Wang Yaowu knew that Zhang Lingfu was going to see Xue Ru, so he stood up and said, "Let him in." ”

Zhang Lingfu came in to salute Wang Yaowu, and Wang Yaowu asked, "Is this the case, is there anything to ask?" ”

Zhang Lingfu said what Xue Ru said, but Wang Yaowu didn't understand it, waved his hand and said, "So make a mistake, what do they say?" ”

Zhang Lingfu said: "Xue Ru said that please hold on until the 14th. If you can't hold out, be sure to inform them in advance before retreating. ”

Wang Yaowu was a little unconvinced: "Two days, can't the 51st Division last for two days?" Chunhua Town: We insisted on five days. ”

"No, Xue Ru said that the order to retreat would be issued within two days, and I hope that even if we receive the order to retreat, we will hold on until the 14th."

"Retreat? Commander Tang had just given the order to hold on, and the defensive deployment had just been adjusted, how did Xue Ru know that he was going to retreat? Wang Yaowu asked puzzled.

Zhang Lingfu said: "She just let me tell you that she can't spread the word and she can't afford to shake the morale of the army." ”

"Haha" Wang Yaowu laughed: "I can't afford it, is she still charged with it?" ”

"What's going on? Teachers? "Zhang Lingfu is interested in Xue Ru for everything. Hurriedly asked.

Wang Yaowu said with a smile: "That's the case...... Everyone is afraid that Tang Shengzhi will turn his face, no one dares to say it, and he doesn't know the details, but this is true. The little girl is really bold, but her courage is admirable. ”

Zhang Lingfu also opened his mouth in surprise, he was really bold enough, he dared to point a gun at the commander at the headquarters, and it was fateful not to die. He also said: "I judge that the retreat may be true, Xue Ru is covered by someone, and there is no inside information, otherwise how can he have the courage to face the commander." ”

Wang Yaowu nodded, he thought so too. Xue Ru doesn't seem to be an impulsive person, she is known as a fox, she would act so recklessly? must have something to rely on: "It seems that we have to study it carefully, how to fight these two days, and we must not let a little girl look down on it." What do you say Xue Ru said? ”

Zhang Lingfu studied it again, and also said Xue Ru's prompt, Wang Yaowu turned around a few times on the ground, and said, "Inform Chief of Staff Qiao to temporarily command, go, let's go see Xue Ru." ”

Zhang Lingfu asked puzzledly, "Does the teacher know what she meant?" ”

Wang Yaowu said: "Eight or nine is not far from ten, so I ask for proof." ”

After Wang Yaowu finished speaking, he took Zhang Lingfu and the guards to the headquarters of Xue Ru, a shop in Datong. When she arrived here, Xue Ru hadn't rested yet. Wu Yuzhao, Xiang Wenbin, Ji Min, Lan Xun Zhou, Yan Fukai, Zhao Tongxian, and Cui Jinchang were studying problems in front of the map and perfecting their defensive tactics.

Seeing Wang Yaowu and Zhang Lingfu coming, Xue Ru was not surprised at all, waved his hand and asked others to make arrangements, and Wu Yuzhao invited the two of them to sit down. Looking at Xue Ru not at all, Wang Yaowu asked, "Captain Xue, do you know that we are coming?" “

Xue Ru smiled: "I don't know, but I think that Head Zhang has already figured out what that sentence means, it is not strange for the two of them to come, and it is reasonable." “

Wang Yaowu nodded and admitted, worthy of being a snow fox, smart enough. He also said: "Then please ask Captain Xue to make it clear that as long as you can win the battle, Wang will listen to your command." ”

Xue Ru felt relieved, she didn't tell Zhang Lingfuming, she just couldn't conclude whether Wang Yaowu and they could listen to her. After all, everyone is a famous general of the Anti-Japanese War, and their position and prestige are not enough to convince people. They are all division commanders and army commanders, so why should they listen to themselves?

So far, the biggest person in his command is the regiment commander, Xiao Shanling is a temporary lieutenant general, and everything is out of evacuating the people and buying time. His garrison gendarmes and policemen are not considered to be armies, so they can accept his command. The 51st Division of the 74th Army is a descendant of the Central Army. If he hadn't relied on, he wouldn't have received an order to leave his troops and flee early.

If Wang Yaowu and Zhang Lingfu can figure it out, they can understand it, and they can count on them, if they don't understand it at all, it doesn't make any sense, so it's better to prepare yourself. So after Zhang Lingfu left, Xue Ru found two captains and three regiment commanders to study what to do if the 51st and 58th divisions were withdrawn.

Seeing Wang Yaowu coming in person, Xue Ru was overjoyed, it seemed that there was a door. Sure enough, when Wang Yaowu said this, he smiled and said: "Master Wang is too polite, Xue Ru doesn't dare, if you can believe it, we can cooperate and crack down on devils in Nanjing." ”

Wang Yaowu's thoughts about Xue Ru are just a judgment, he wants to verify it, and now that it has been confirmed, he is also relieved. Because he heard Xue Ru say that he was not sticking to Nanjing, but hitting the devil hard. said happily: "You say, how to fight?" ”

Xue Ru said: "In a word, let it in and fight." Let the Japanese army's aircraft, artillery and fighting vehicles be ineffective, give full play to the advantages of our light weapons, and bury the Japanese army in the city of Nanjing. ”

Wang Yaowu said: "Even if the 51st Division does not participate, you are prepared like this, right?" ”

Xue Ru nodded, Zhang Lingfu didn't understand and asked, "How did the division commander know?" ”

Wang Yaowu said: "Captain Xue asked the 51st Division to hold out until the 14th, even if he didn't notify her in advance, I'm afraid that's what it means." Am I right? ”

"Admire" Xue Ru nodded and exclaimed: "Division Commander Wang, the three thousand people of the Snow Fox Corps can destroy a wing of the Japanese army, now I am a corps, two military police regiments, a police regiment, tens of thousands of people, you say how much the devil wants to occupy Nanjing, how much does it cost him, without a division corpse, don't want to occupy Nanjing." ”

These words surprised the two of them, excited them, and made their blood boil. Wang Yaowu said: "Now with the addition of the 51st Division, is the result greater? ”

Of course, although the 51st Division is already a half-crippled unit, it is still more powerful than the police regiment and stronger than the military police regiment. He said excitedly, "Master Wang wants to be involved? Is this a bit disobedient? ”

Wang Yaowu smiled: "Is it wrong to fight devils?" Wang really doesn't care. If I could, I would contact Commander Feng of the 58th Division. ”

Xue Ru said: "Of course, the more troops, the better, but we must also see the limitations. ”

Wang Yaowu asked, "What limitations?" ”

Xue Ru said: "The geographical area of Nanjing is limited, the food in the city is also limited, and the weapons and ammunition are not suitable for long-term combat. ”

Wang Yaowu said: "Didn't you say that there will be a retreat order soon? How to hold on for a long time? ”

Xue Ru said: "This is a street battle in the city, and there is no need for more troops, and elite troops are needed." There are too many troops to have a unified command, but unfortunately we don't have them, and the various units don't listen to us, and there are not many like you, Division Commander Wang, after all. Especially Commander Tang, you know. ”

Wang Yaowu shook his head: "That's not necessarily, if it's a war of resistance against devils, everyone didn't say it, I contacted Division Commander Feng, and the Song Army Commander behind me are all the elite of the Central Army of the National Army, these troops are enough, right?" ”

Xue Ru also made Wang Yaowu say passionately, if he could unite the entire Nanjing army, it would not be able to change the fate of Nanjing. Nodding his head, he said, "How many troops do you still have?" ”

Wang Yaowu sighed: "Two brigades, four regiments and one division, now there are less than two regiments of troops left, and there are more than 3,000 people. ”

Xue Ru's heart was gloomy, even if a division was not satisfied, it was at least more than 8,000 people, and many of the Central Army of the National Army had a six-regiment system, with more than 10,000 troops, many of which reached more than 15,000 people, but the 51st Division was only more than 3,000 people. How many troops are there in Nanjing? Nodding his head, he said: "In order to facilitate the command, Division Commander Wang reduced the troops into a regiment, minus the wounded soldiers, and withdrew from Nanjing under the leadership of other officers. ”

Wang Yaowu asked: "What should I do about the perseverance of these two days?" ”

Xue Ru said: "I'll figure out a way, if you can, you can notify the 58th Division to deal with it." ”

Wang Yaowu said: "Okay, I'll contact Division Commander Feng, and then discuss, the situation of the 58th Division is better." ”

Xue Ru said: "It is possible to contact Commander Song of the Seventy-Eighth Army again. ”
