Jin Zhao thought for a while, opened the door and said to Huang Hui, who had been guarding outside, "I'll go out and have a look first, and I'll be back soon, I'll leave it to you first." ”

"Camp! Why are you going? Would you like me to send a few men with you? Huang Hui hurriedly asked when he heard that Jin Zhao was going out.

Jin Zhao waved his hand and said, "No need, I'll be back right away." He strode out. Huang Hui saw that Jin Zhao was walking to the rear, and thought that Jin Zhao was going to the regiment commander to report the battle situation, so he didn't think much about it.

About half an hour later, Jin Zhao hurried back, "The little devil didn't make any changes, right?" ”

"No, the little devil has been quiet since we repelled him. Is this little devil just like that? I really don't know what the guys in the Northeast Army grew up eating, and the hundreds of thousands of troops actually let more than 20,000 little devils occupy the three eastern provinces! Huang Hui pursed his lips and said with a disdainful expression.

Jin Zhao held the binoculars and looked at the position of the little devil opposite, and found that the little devil really showed no signs of attacking, so he put his mind at ease, "Hmph! It's not that the brothers of the Northeast Army didn't plant, but that Zhang Shaoshuai didn't plant, his own Lao Tzu was killed by the little devil, and in the face of the attack of the little devil, he even issued an order not to resist, this is good, even the nest is lost, this guy is simply the first big loser in the Republic of China! ”

Listening to Jin Zhao's vicious words, Huang Hui nodded thoughtfully. "Camp! You said that the little devil suffered a loss this time, do you dare to continue the attack? ”

"Dogs can't change their, the little devil won't die if my heart of Huaxia doesn't die, he won't give up, the real war is still to come!" Jin Zhao said with a serious face, "There must not be underestimated against the enemy, the little devils are well-equipped and well-trained, far from being comparable to those warlord troops in China, and the battle of Shanghai must be extremely tragic, so we must have enough psychological preparation." Saying that, Jin Zhao took out his pocket watch, it was already half past four in the morning, and the fish belly was gradually white in the east, "It's almost dawn, it is estimated that the little devil's plane is about to be dispatched, tell the brothers, prepare for air defense." And all the nearby residents were evacuated, and if they didn't leave, even if they were kidnapped, they had to be kidnapped by me, and the little devils would not show mercy to our men. ”

"Yes!" Huang Hui replied solemnly, and then gave Jin Zhao a military salute and turned down to prepare.

At about 4:40 a.m. on 29 January, a violent roar of motors was heard in the sky, and the planes of the army were dispatched, and the planes of the army dropped many bombs and incendiary bombs. The areas around Zhabei and Nanshi were bombed indiscriminately, and the flames of war spread rapidly. The battle was extremely fierce, the streets were full of fires, flames filled the sky, and the battlefield was extremely miserable. Fortunately, the residents of the fighting area had almost run away last night, and the few who did not leave were also evacuated under the forced force of the 19th Route Army, so there were not too many casualties.

After receiving the news of the bombardment, Weng Zhaoyuan immediately ordered the two antiaircraft guns originally stationed in Dachang to be pushed to the vicinity of Zhabei to serve as air defense. At the same time, the regiments were ordered to fire at the air near the positions, with designated troops.

As soon as the planes of the army left, a group of black-clothed men carrying large boxes appeared near the position of the second company, and were immediately stopped by vigilant guards.

"Report to the camp, there is a group of people outside who claim to be the Nanyang Anti-Japanese Volunteers, saying that they want to help us resist the Yue Kou together." Zheng Fugui ran to Jin Zhao's side and reported loudly.

"Oh! What is the Nanyang Anti-Volunteer Army? Jin Zhao frowned and asked, "Call them in." ”

"Yes!" Zheng Fugui solemnly saluted Jin Zhao and turned to leave.

Jin Zhao gave an order and continued to study the next military deployment with Huang Hui and a few others, and Jin Zhao judged that after the little devil bombed, a new round of attack would definitely be launched.

Soon Zheng Fugui led a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes to walk in, and as soon as the man saw Jin Zhao, he immediately closed his feet and stood up and saluted a military salute, "Report to the chief, Xu Wenqiang, the captain of the first brigade of the Nanyang Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army, report to the commander!" ”

"Xu Wenqiang?" Jin Zhao glanced at the man named Xu Wenqiang, "What are you doing here with me?" "Now there are many anti-Japanese groups among the people, so for this so-called Nanyang Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army, everyone present did not pay too much attention to it.

"Report sir! Our Nanyang Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army is a resistance organization organized by overseas Chinese in Nanyang after the September 18 Incident. We originally planned to go north to the northeast to resist the war, but as soon as we arrived in Shanghai, we heard that the little devils were looking for provocations in Shanghai, and yesterday the little devils brazenly attacked our Chinese defenders. So we plan to join the commander's troops to resist the Kou and defend the country together! Xu Wenqiang said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Jin Zhao shook his head with a smile and said, "Defend the family and the country!" To put it mildly, war is not as simple as you think. That's it, Zheng Fugui, you take them to the brigade headquarters! Saying that, Xu Wenqiang turned his head and continued to discuss with Huang Hui.

"Yes!" Zheng Fugui answered, then walked to Xu Wenqiang's side and said with a smile, "Mr. Xu, please follow me!" ”

Xu Wenqiang naturally saw the contempt in the eyes of Jin Zhao and the others, his face changed, and he said loudly, "Sir, all of us have had military training and have participated in battles, but we are not a group of rabble. And we've also brought some medicine and weapons and ammunition, and I think the chief will definitely need our help. ”

As soon as they heard that Xu Wenqiang actually had weapons and equipment and medicines, Jin Zhao, Huang Hui and others couldn't help but light up, Jin Zhao glanced at Huang Hui, Huang Hui nodded, and trotted out all the way. Jin Zhao immediately said to Xu Wenqiang with a smile on his face, "Mr. Xu, I was so negligent just now, please forgive me." ”

Xu Wenqiang snorted coldly and said, "If it weren't for your sake of fighting devils, Young Master Ben wouldn't be too lazy to talk nonsense with you?" ”

"Yes, yes!" Jin Zhao said with a smile on his face, "We are all rough people, please Mr. Xu put the overall situation first, and don't be like us Qiu Ba." Zheng Fugui, what are you still doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and serve tea to Mr. Xu. ”

As soon as Zheng Fugui heard the battalion commander's orders, where did he dare to slack off, he immediately ran down and prepared to go.

Jin Zhao smiled and chatted with Xu Wenqiang, it is a time of war, and weapons, ammunition and medicines have undoubtedly become the most important strategic materials. After all, the Nineteenth Route Army is a miscellaneous army, and Lao Jiang's treatment of the miscellaneous army is called a black! Since the end of the Central Plains War, the 19th Route Army has not been replenished with weapons and ammunition, and the military expenses have been owed by Lao Jiang for eight months. Therefore, when he heard that Xu Wenqiang actually brought a batch of guns and ammunition, how could Jin Zhao not be excited, this batch of equipment was undoubtedly a relief in the snow for the first battalion that lacked guns and ammunition!

The two chatted happily, only to see Huang Hui running in from outside in a panic, and said incoherently, "Yingza, we have made a fortune this time." ”
