Tang Shengzhi held Jin Zhao's hand and said gratefully, "Thank you Brother Meng Bo for coming forward, with Brother Meng Bo here, the southern line will be worry-free!" On behalf of the hundreds of thousands of fathers and elders in Nanjing, I would like to thank my brother! ”

Jin Zhao felt a burst of disdain in his heart, if he didn't know history, he would definitely regard Tang Shengzhi as a patriot who was willing to shed his blood for the people, but Jin Zhao was obviously not among them. Although he knew that Tang Shengzhi was not a good person, but now that he had a request for him, Jin Zhao had to put on a smiling face and said with a smile, "Commander Tang is polite, they are all serving the country!" However, Commander Tang's heroic spirit of taking risks and swearing to defend the national capital to the death is a model for my generation to learn! It was because of the commander's inspiration that I woke up and decided to defend Nanjing with the commander! "Everyone carries the sedan chair, and there is no need to pay taxes anyway, so Jin Zhao patted Tang Shengzhi's ass very generously.

Sure enough, after Tang Shengzhi heard this, he immediately felt like a spring breeze, and said with a smile, "Brother Meng Bo is too polite!" How can I be as heroic as you say! It's Brother Meng Bo, young and promising! If Brother Meng Bo doesn't dislike it, just call me brother! Don't be the commander-in-chief, the commander is too much! "Although Tang Shengzhi is a first-class general, since the failure of the anti-Chiang era, he has no soldiers and no power. Now some powerful generals in the army don't take him seriously at all, and now seeing that Jin Zhao is still respectful to himself, Tang Shengzhi can't mention how happy he is, so Tang Shengzhi has the idea of deepening his relationship with Jin Zhao, and maybe he will be able to make a comeback with the help of Jin Zhao's hand in the future! Even if he can't make a comeback, as long as he holds Nanjing, he will be a hero of resistance, and it is much better to win over a local powerful faction like Jin Zhao than to be angry under Lao Jiang now, so Tang Shengzhi is more polite to Jin Zhao.

"That kid is presumptuous, Brother Meng Xiao!" Jin Zhao said with a flattered expression.

The two walked out talking and laughing, and at Tang Shengzhi's invitation, Jin Zhao got into Tang Shengzhi's car. At this time, Jin Zhao frowned and said, "Brother Meng Xiao! Defending Nanjing is a big deal! As the commander, Brother Meng Xiao is the backbone of the whole army, so how to fight this battle, Brother Meng Xiao must have a score in his heart! ”

Tang Shengzhi nodded and said, "The army is strong, the gateway to Nanjing has been lost, there is no danger to defend, only the soldiers of the whole army fight to the death, there is hope for victory, I decided to break the cauldron and fight against the water, in order to inspire the soldiers of the whole army to fight to the death!" ”

Jin Zhao couldn't help but be a little disappointed after hearing this, which was exactly what Jin Zhao was worried about. Jin Zhao sighed helplessly and said, "This is the part of the war!" As soldiers, we are all guilty of unforgivable crimes! However, there are still hundreds of thousands of civilians in Nanjing, they are innocent, and the war will inevitably cause unnecessary casualties among civilians! Moreover, I have heard that there are rumors in the book that the capture of Nanjing will slaughter the people of Nanjing, so as to blow our will to resist in China! So we had to defend against it, so I suggested that the command should immediately organize the evacuation of civilians, just in case! ”

Tang Shengzhi couldn't help frowning and said, "The army shouldn't do such a thing that loses his conscience, right?" ”

"Brother Meng Xiao! Haven't you seen the brutal nature of the army? At the time of the First Sino-Japanese War, the army had created Lushun **, not to mention, even recently, since the war, in North China, the army burned and plundered all the way, only a 16th division, from Tianjin to Hengshui, just a few hundred miles, I have as many as tens of thousands of innocent civilians! The rest of the army is no better, they are all a bunch of brutes with no surname! If they are allowed to rush into Nanjing, the result is difficult to predict, so just in case, the people in Nanjing must be evacuated as soon as possible! ”

Tang Shengzhi couldn't help but be even more embarrassed when he heard this, "If the people are evacuated in advance, it will inevitably cause turmoil in the hearts of the army, which will be very unfavorable to the next defense of Nanjing!" Moreover, there are hundreds of thousands of people in Nanjing, how to retreat and where to retreat, this is not a small problem! ”

Jin Zhao then said, "You can retreat in two directions, all the way you can cross the Yangtze River north and retreat to Anhui." On the other hand, you can retreat to the south, as long as the people are willing, they can retreat all the way south to Fujian, and I will send people to answer along the way. Moreover, with more than 100,000 troops of my 25th Group Army, I promise to block the 10th Army of the little devils to the east of the line from Huzhou to Hangzhou! ”

Tang Shengzhi frowned and said, "This matter is very important, let me think about it again, not to mention that such a big matter has to be approved by the chairman!" ”

Jin Zhao glanced at Tang Shengzhi, knowing that it was useless to say anything more, he sighed helplessly, and now he can only take one step at a time, but Jin Zhao will never allow the tragedy of Nanjing to happen again.

Early the next morning, Jin Zhao took a plane back to Hangzhou. As soon as Jin Zhao got off the plane, he saw a group of people coming over, the first of whom was wearing an air force uniform, and a shining gold star on the collar badge represented his status as a major general of the air force.

As soon as Jin Zhao saw this person, he immediately greeted him with a smile, "Brother Ziheng!" I've admired the name for a long time, and today I finally see the true God! "Yes, this person is Gao Zhihang, the former captain of the Fourth Destroyer Brigade of the Central Air Force and the current major general of the Second Air Force Division.

Gao Zhihang and the air force officers behind him immediately stood up and said loudly, "Hello sir! ”

Jin Zhao smiled back and gave a military salute, and then smiled and shook Gao Zhihang's hand and said, "When I was in Fujian, I heard about Brother Ziheng's brilliant achievements. ”

Gao Zhihang said with a smile, "Commander-in-Chief Miao praised!" We just did what we were supposed to do. Five years ago, however, the commander-in-chief brutally annihilated a brigade and regiment in Shanghai, which greatly increased the prestige of our Chinese soldiers and made us admire. Today, he personally led the army north to resist, which is really a model for us! ”

Jin Zhao smiled bitterly and waved his hand, "You and I don't have to praise each other, I once said that when the war is fought to this point, we soldiers are all sinners of the nation, and we are ashamed of our hometown fathers and the people of the whole country!" ”

As soon as Jin Zhao's words fell, everyone present showed shame on their faces! Jin Zhao sighed and said, "But let's not be too pessimistic, I, a big country in China, will never die at the hands of the Mishima slaves." As long as we are united, one day we will defeat Yuben completely! When we take Tokyo, it will be our shame! ”

"The Commander-in-Chief is right! As long as we are united, we can defeat the little devils sooner or later! Now I dream that one day, I will be able to fly an airplane, drop a bomb on the island, and blow up these ** beasts! At this time, a young officer behind Gao Zhihang couldn't help but say loudly.
