Section 68

Shi stood alone on the tower of Jiqing Gate, looking at the city of Nanjing with a complicated expression, the firelight reflected his young face, showing a murderous expression full of haze.

Not long ago, he had entered the city twice with Commander Zhang and Battalion Commander Zheng, and what impressed him the most at that time was the crowded crowd on the street and the houses next to each other.

It's just that in just ten days, all this has changed, the smoke of artillery fire shrouded the sky over the entire city, after the blazing fire lit up the night sky, it also ignited the road to death, looking at this city in the swaying firelight, the stone couldn't help but shudder, the city is about to break, what kind of fate and encounter will befall these people? Will those bloody and ruthless little devils let them live?

Just as the stone was thinking about this sadly, a noisy sound began to come from the street below, which was not too obvious at first, and the stone was not too careless, but after a while, the sound gradually became louder, and even by the light of the fire, he faintly felt the crowd below.

Just as the stone was about to go down to see what was going on, Xiao Shandong quickly rushed up the steps, and shouted anxiously: "Brother Shi, go down and take a look, the streets are all in chaos." ”

"What happened?" Stone asked, puzzled.

Xiao Shandong's young face suddenly swelled with a wave of horror, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva with a little fear, and said uneasily: "Mother, the streets are full of people, all shouting to get out of the city!" The three platoon leaders are leading people to guard it, and they look like they are about to do it, and those people look fierce one by one. ”

Where did the stone dare to hesitate, even with the support of Xiao Shandong, he hurried down quickly.

The originally wide streets were cut off because of the preparation for street fighting, and even near the city gate, several main roads were thickened into zigzag passages, and now, the three excluded most of the people were arranged outside the garrison near the city gate, and another squad was stuck on Jiqingmen Avenue, and two newly obtained machine guns became horns to guard here, although the personnel were too few, but the weapons in hand made them full of confidence one by one.

Now, the other end of the street is already crowded with people, and the noisy sound is coming from the dense figures, and even from time to time there are angry shouts, showing that these people have reached the edge of anger, like a volcano that has begun to spew white ash, and a major eruption may be ushered in at any time.

However, in the midst of this angry shouting, a slightly cold voice sounded out of place: "If someone dares to approach the position within ten steps, kill him, and if something happens, I will be responsible!" ”

This voice was cold without the slightest feeling, listening to everyone's ears, and suddenly made them feel a chill all over their bodies, it was a cold day, at this moment, it was more like the temperature had plummeted by a few degrees, and it seemed that exhaling could turn into ice, of course, what made those people most jealous was the burly and tall body of the person who spoke, like a hill in front of them, which made people unable to raise any resistance.

"What is horizontal? It's kind of going to kill devils! ”

"That's it, I can't beat the devil, but I put on a majestic posture in front of us, and I am angry."

"Damn, the devil has already entered the city, and if you stay here, your life will be gone, everyone run......

A series of shouts came from the front, stronger than strong, but the crowd, in the face of a machine gun, no one really dared to make any moves, but the anxious look on their faces became more and more obvious.

"Company Commander Gao, how's the situation going?" Listening to the angry voices in the crowd, Stone couldn't help frowning and shouting. When the "little mountain" in the distance heard this, after glaring at everyone, he snorted coldly and hurried towards them, and after seeing the stone, he said lukewarmly: "You came just in time, you are the company commander, what to do, you can decide!" ”

"What to do? Hurry up and let them out of the city, or after the devils enter the city, they won't be able to leave if they want to! Shi blurted out without thinking.

"Let go?" Hearing this, the tall sledgehammer couldn't help but reach out and touch the stubble on his chin, and at the same time looked at the stone in front of him with strange eyes, as if he was looking at a monster, and his expression was full of incomprehension.

The stone was also a little baffled by the expression of the tall sledgehammer, and after thinking about it for a while, he felt that he really didn't say anything wrong, and then he asked, "What?" Does Company Commander Gao have any other opinions? Could it be that there is any difficulty in letting these ordinary people go? ”

On the other hand, Xiao Shandong seemed to remember something, and couldn't help but remind in a whisper: "Brother Shi, in the afternoon, the camp is attached to say, let us recruit soldiers, this person is let go, where can I find someone?" Now everyone else has withdrawn, the entire Saihongqiao including this city gate, but there is only one of us left after the camp, if there is no one, we can fight! ”

Gao Sledgehammer looked at Xiao Shandong on the side, it seemed that he remembered this at this time, quite surprised, usually it seems that this kid seems to be timid and afraid of things stupid not in the middle of winter, I didn't expect this little brain to be very easy to use, and after Xiao Shandong finished speaking, he added: "Listening to the sound of guns and cannons in the distance, shouting and killing, the devil seems to have broken into the city, how many people here are not clear, if the devil takes the opportunity to break through the defense line because of letting them leave, not to mention these people, even we have to finish together, Company Commander Shi, you won't be unaware of this, right? ”

Shi couldn't help but smile bitterly: "No matter how clear it is, we can't joke with these many lives, the devil can be killed at any time, how many people can escape, the friendly troops are basically withdrawn, and the rest of the people are just like us who are sent to death, and it is not surprising that they are really going to die." Company Commander Gao, get out of the way and release the people, the sooner the better, if something happens to you, it may be even more troublesome. ”

The last sentence of the stone seemed to talk about the place where the tall sledgehammer was worried, and after hesitating for a moment, he also nodded and said: "Since you insist on doing this, you are the company commander, everything will be done according to what you say!" After speaking, he turned around and shouted, "Shen Er, get out of the way and let these people out of the city." ”

"Yes, platoon commander." In the darkness, even when Shen Er's response came, their voices were obviously heard by those ordinary people, and immediately countless surprises and cheers came out, and almost before they could make any moves here, the crowded crowd was boiling, and countless people rushed towards the city gate.

The flow of people rushed forward like a wild horse, the surging force, so that they could not avoid the obstacles on the road, in the case of pushing forward and squeezing, everyone's movement, almost involuntarily, but just the blink of an eye, those Hengdan obstacles on the road were washed away, the stone even saw the people who were originally standing in front, crowded by the people behind them and crashed into a barrier made of mud bags, and then with those mud bags were trampled under the feet, The screams of pain that came out of the man's mouth were almost muffled by the excited shouts of those behind him, and in a moment they were trampled into flesh and drowned in darkness.

Seeing such a situation with his own eyes, an inexplicable sadness suddenly swelled up in Shi's heart, and instead of dying under the guns of the enemy, he died at the feet of his compatriots in this way, and the selfishness and indifference shown by these people at the moment of danger really made him feel an inexplicable fear.

"Brother Shi, there are too many people left, so where can I find someone to replenish the source of soldiers." Xiao Shandong watched these people rush out of the city, and suddenly reminded anxiously on the side.

Shi shook his head indifferently and said, "Forget it, it's useless for these people to stay, maybe they will kill us instead." ”

The tall sledgehammer on the side just looked at the crowd in front of him coldly, as if he had expected such a situation for a long time, for these people in front of him, he just unnaturally revealed a deep disdain in his mouth, and he didn't know if he was laughing at the selfishness of these people? Still disdainful of their cowardice and cowardice.

"Who is not raised by their parents, who has no wives and children, they defend the country with their blood and lives, defend the lives of these people, but in the rolling flow of people, no one even looks at them, as if they are afraid that they will be forced to stay behind if they hesitate, let alone work together to resist foreign enemies, otherwise they will rush to the enemy with this momentum, even if the weapons are rudimentary, even if the enemy is strong, but in front of this indomitable momentum, I am afraid that the little devil will not be as rampant as now!" Tall Sledgehammer couldn't help but think silently in his heart.

At this moment, the stone suddenly looked violent, and his body full of trauma seemed to surge with endless strength all of a sudden, and he shouted in vain: "Get out!" ”

Not only Xiao Shandong and Gao Da Hammer on the side were shocked by the big shouts of the stones, but even the rushing crowd also had a trace of hesitation, and between the surprises, those people also involuntarily leaned close to the other side of the street, wanting to stay away from here.

At the same time as the stone screamed, it also let out a cry of pain, but the body shot out like an arrow from the string, and the whole person slammed into the crowded crowd fiercely, knocking everyone to the ground.

However, before everyone could figure out what was going on, "Boom! A loud bang exploded forty or fifty paces away from them, and the streets in the distance suddenly rolled up like boiling water, and countless voices screamed, "Devil...... The devil is coming."

"Run, run......"
