1937, October 27, 02:00.

Standing on the roof of the Sixing Warehouse, you can see the fire burning from the North Railway Station to Hengfeng Road and Bridge lighting up the dark night sky.

Judging from the fierce gunfire from the two sides of the North Sichuan Road, Qiujiang Road, and Baoshan Road, the various companies are still holding their positions and have not yet retreated.

Until now, the troops have not been retracted. I don't know if I can take it down, if it is......

Xie Jinyuan was a little afraid to think about that result, and it was not a way to think about it if he always blew cold wind on the roof.

Simply use your own flashlight to enter the building to check the internal situation and prepare a defense plan.

At this moment, the shouts of the guards suddenly came from downstairs,

"Somebody, stop, he's going to shoot as he walks forward."

"I, Tao Xingchun, am the platoon leader of the company, and the company and other platoons will follow."

With the name announced, the hurried team was released into the building.

"Go, call that platoon commander."

Anxious to understand the situation on the front line, Xie Jinyuan ordered the guards.

The guards who followed him answered the call and ran quickly downstairs, and soon ran up with the platoon commander surnamed Tao.

"Tuanza, Platoon Leader Tao is here."

"Good seats, salute."

With the back of his hand behind his back, Xie Jinyuan faintly felt that something was not quite right.

Although the order was passed down for more than an hour, he could understand that there were almost no troops who could get out of the battle so quickly.

"You're coming pretty fast, what's going on?"

Why, does the chief think we're coming slowly?

Although there were some doubts in his heart, Platoon Commander Tao did not dare to delay and replied loudly,

"Report to the group, the front line is fighting very hard, and there are more and more devils who come up. The office was besieged and did not see the herald, so I did not know the order to come to the Sixing warehouse. ”

"Don't know?"

Xie Jinyuan, who was a little surprised, looked carefully at the platoon commander in front of him, twenty-four or five years old, and there was a little doubt in his eyes.

Breathed a sigh of relief, frowned and asked,

"How did you get down without an order?"

"A German paratrooper told us to assemble here."

German paratroopers?

There seems to be some truth to this.

The German officer corps was at the headquarters of the 87th Division, and it was a lieutenant named Marcus.

But that man seems to be from the Mountain Division, and I haven't heard that there are paratroopers among the officers of the advisory group.

Bacchus must have known that he had set up a position in the Four Lines Warehouse, and that his men had crossed over to inform him. While such speculation is reasonable, the probability of German officers sending their men directly into the war is almost nil.

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

I didn't see that the group seat was thinking silently, and Platoon Leader Tao was still reporting, and his tone was still a little elated,

"That's what the German paratrooper said, but he was a Chinese paratrooper in Germany, and when he heard that the devil was coming, he returned to China to participate in the war."

"It's strange how he knows about our plans, he's a returned Chinese and doesn't belong to the German officer corps."

Frowning, Xie Jinyuan felt that this matter was getting more and more strange, and he asked silently.

Unexpectedly, the chief was actually interested in this matter, and scratched his head Tao Platoon Commander told Zhang Sixing about breaking into the stronghold.

"That Zhang Sixing brother is really good, not only connected the phone line and let me connect to the company, but also rushed out with us......"

Although when Platoon Commander Tao talked about Zhang Sixing, he was quite impressed by his bravery, but then he found that the chief's interest did not seem to be here.

"He's alone?"

"yes."

Blinking his eyes in confusion, Platoon Leader Tao replied bluntly.

"The phone line he connected, are you sure you heard your company commander's voice?"

Platoon Commander Tao, who didn't understand a little, was even more confused, so he had to answer,

"It's our company headquarters, and we can't hear the voice of our company commander. It's just that he ......"

"What's wrong with your company commander?"

Xie Jinyuan, who felt more and more that things were not quite right, asked,

"Martyrdom."

Hearing Platoon Leader Tao's answer, Xie Jinyuan was silent. He continued to think about it and waved his hand for Platoon Leader Tao to step back.

Waiting for the platoon leader's footsteps to disappear, he waved his hand and beckoned his guards,

"Lin Liang, you ask Xiaozhuang to find Battalion Commander Yang and ask him or other officers of the battalion headquarters to come back."

"Tuanza, you ......"

Looking at Xie Jinyuan's expression, Lin Liang subconsciously pulled out his box cannon.

"No, if I'm right, it might not be a big deal. Otherwise...... Tell Xiaozhuang to go and come back quickly, you look at the Tao platoon leader and ask them to set up guards outside the gate. ”

He didn't doubt the platoon commander surnamed Tao, but it was a pity that the German paratroopers had come out of thin air, and he knew in advance the plan for the assembly of the Sixing warehouse, so he couldn't help but think about it.

"Yes"

Looking at the hurried figure of the guard, Xie Jinyuan silently calculated.

If the platoon leader Tao surrenders to the enemy, he will become an internal response, which is the worst situation.

If he had only been deceived by the spy disguised as a German paratrooper, then perhaps things weren't too bad.

Soon Yang Ruifu, the commander of the first battalion, arrived with part of the personnel of the second company, the battalion headquarters and the machine gun platoon.

He didn't understand what the troops were not doing when they were not finished, and Xie Jinyuan was in a hurry to call him back.

Seeing Xie Jinyuan, he hurriedly gave a military salute and asked eagerly,

"Tuanza, what's wrong, what do you need us to do, you give the order."

"It's not a big deal."

Because there is something in my heart, I have no intention of arranging defense affairs.

Looking at the raging war on the roof of the building with his hands behind his back, Xie Jinyuan shook his head and replied.

Hearing Tuanzao say this, Yang Ruifu knew that something might be wrong, and quietly waved his hand back.

The other officers of the battalion headquarters and the guards all looked away.

Seeing that there was no one around, Yang Ruifu asked tentatively again,

"Tuanza, the situation is tense now, and it is difficult for each company to break away in time after retreating, and some are still fighting hard......"

Hearing Yang Ruifu's complaint, Xie Jinyuan raised one to stop his words, and did not turn around and asked in a low voice,

"The pottery of the company...... Are you familiar with Tao Platoon Leader? ”

"Familiar, Xingchun dares to fight, he is an old platoon commander who can fight, and the first company commander was martyred, and I still think about ......"

Xie Jinyuan raised his hand again to stop him from speaking, and turned his face to look at the others.

Everyone looked at the battle-torn battlefield with interest, or simply left the rooftop.

"You know, but he just mentioned a man who had just returned from Germany, claiming to be a German paratrooper from abroad. He was the first to know the news that we were going to gather in the Sixing warehouse. ”

"One step ahead...... Don't...... Sir, do you suspect Xingchun...... It's impossible, he doesn't have that heart, he can only speak in the vernacular, and he is a stubborn character. ”

Looking at the war thoughtfully, Xie Jinyuan nodded slowly, secretly relieved,

"That's good, if that's the case, let him take me with you at ease. But the man who claims to be back from Germany doesn't show up, and if he does, ......."

"Yes, don't worry, if he doesn't show up, if he really comes again, I will not let him escape from here."

Regarding Yang Ruifu's expression, Xie Jinyuan didn't say much, just lightly bowed his head,

"Let's go, let's take a look at the situation in the building, and when the people are together, we will start the arming of the building."
