Zhong Yi suddenly agreed to transfer, and Qiu Qingquan was both happy and extremely confused.

At that moment, Qiu Qingquan asked again: "What's going on?" What did the devil's radio say? ”

"The little devil is going to have a killing competition in Nanjing!" Zhu Liangcheng took over and said, "The target is the national army in Nanjing City or the ordinary people holding the people, that is to say, as long as the people in the city are outside the city, they will be safe!" At least until the national army in the city is dead, the devils will not chase and kill! ”

"So, there has to be a troop left with me!" Zhong Yi said, "Attract the attention of the devils and buy time for the transfer of friendly troops and civilians!" ”

"What?" Qiu Qingquan said awe-inspiringly, "The devil wants to engage in a competition to kill the enemy? ”

After a pause, Qiu Qingquan said in a deep voice: "What did you just say, you want to stay?" ”

"Someone has to stay, and the number can't be too small!" Zhong Yi said in a deep voice, "Otherwise, the little devil will not be able to hold a hunting competition, and if he can't get a high bounty, he will definitely be angry with the people, and even if the people in the city leave the city, even if they escape dozens of miles away, they will not be able to escape the devil's poisonous hands!" ”

Qiu Qingquan said: "You can go out of the city first, and then fight to block it!" ”

Zhong Yi shook his head: "Field battles are more conducive to devils giving full play to their firepower advantages, it is better to stay in the city and fight street battles!" Moreover, even if you break through normally, don't you have to leave the troops behind to break the rear? ”

Qiu Qingquan immediately fell silent, because he couldn't refute it at all.

After a long time, Qiu Qingquan gritted his teeth and said: "In this way, you break through first, and I will stay behind!" ”

It must be admitted that Qiu Qingquan is really a man, when he first taught the corps to break through, he not only let the chief captain Gui Yongqing leave first, but even let the staff officers and guards of the division headquarters go first, he stayed alone to burn documents, it is precisely because of this that he missed the opportunity to cross the river, if it wasn't for Zhao Hanxing, maybe he would have been martyred.

As the chief of staff of the 367th Regiment, Qiu Qingquan really rushed ducks to the shelves.

But since he has become the chief of staff, even if he has only been in office for less than three days, he is willing to assume the responsibility of the chief of staff, let the regiment commander break through first, and he, the chief of staff, will stay behind!

But how could Zhong Yi let Qiu Qingquan stay?

"Chief of Staff Qiu, you don't need to say it!" Zhong Yi waved his hand and said, "This is an order!" ”

Qiu Qingquan's face showed a constipated look again, and he still didn't say anything after all.

Zhong Yi said again: "First, the confidentiality work must be done well!" When organizing the transfer of the people, we must not say that we will take them out of the city, but only that we will take them into bomb shelters to avoid the bombing! ”

"Understood!" Qiu Qingquan nodded, and said, "What about after the people are transferred?" ”

Zhong Yi said: "Chief of Staff Qiu, you also know that the two hundred independent battalions have only completed the initial reorganization, and the morale of the army is unstable, if they know that there is a tunnel leading directly to Yuhuatai, do you know what will happen?" ”

"Yes!" Qiu Qingquan said in a deep voice, "The tragedy of five days ago will be repeated!" ”

"So, it's still a secret!" Zhong Yi said, "Since the entrance to the tunnel is in the Confucius Temple, and the Confucius Temple is in the southeast defense area, so the southeast defense area lasts, and the one hundred and sixty independent battalions in the remaining four defense areas will go first, and pull them to the Confucius Temple one by one in the name of changing defenses, you are personally responsible for this, and you must retreat in an orderly manner!" ”

"Understood!" Qiu Qingquan said, "I will definitely arrange it!" ”

Zhong Yi turned his gaze to Zhu Liangcheng, He Yunpeng and others, and said in a deep voice: "The retreat sequence of the five main battalions, as well as the 1st Guard Company and the 2nd Guard Company, is at the end, and when the forty independent battalions in the southeast defense area are safely transferred, they will be the troops directly under the regiment, and then it will be your turn, I hope that by then, the devil has not yet discovered the tunnel!" ”

Zhu Liangcheng, He Yunpeng, Zhao Hansheng and others were all silent, and no one said anything.

To be honest, Zhong Yi's arrangement is very unfair to them, but Zhong Yi mainly stays as the head of the regiment, so what else do they have to say? Didn't say it, gamble on your life!

In the end, Zhong Yi swept the faces of all the officers present with a cold gaze, and said murderously: "I will emphasize discipline again, we must keep it secret, and no one is allowed to leak the news!" ”

"Yes!" Including Qiu Qingquan, everyone responded with a bang.

Zhong Yi announced the dismissal of the meeting, and Qiu Qingquan went straight to Xu Chuanyin.

……

From twelve o'clock in the afternoon, Qiu Qingquan and Xu Chuanyin began to transfer the people in the city.

Zhang Zhizhong spent a lot of effort to build the tunnel is still very powerful, the theoretical maximum traffic capacity can even reach 30,000 people per hour, of course, this is only the theoretical speed of traffic, the well-trained army can barely reach it, and it is impossible for the common people who help the old and the young to have this efficiency.

So it wasn't until 2 p.m. the next day that the people in the city were basically transferred.

Then there are 200 independent battalions, and the transfer efficiency of the national army is much higher than that of the people.

By the evening of the next day, all 160 independent battalions in the other four defense zones had been transferred, except for the 40 independent battalions in the southeast defense zone.

It should be noted that none of these 160 independent battalions was complete, and after 36 hours of fierce fighting under the onslaught of the devils day and night, the attrition of these 160 battalions was very serious, and the good situation could still have half of the strength, and the poor situation was not even more than one-third.

Due to Qiu Qingquan and Xu Chuanyin's effective organization, the people who went out of the city during the day strictly kept silent, and hid in the dense forest of Yuhuatai for the first time and did not move for the time being, until it was dark before they hurriedly evacuated in the direction of southern Anhui, plus all the attention of the devils was concentrated in the city of Nanjing, so until the evening of the next day, no abnormality was found.

Because of the smooth advance, Inaba Shiro even reported to Matsui Ishi that the divisions on the front line had successfully occupied most of the blocks in Nanjing, and Xinjiekou had also been taken in one fell swoop, and now the remnants of the national army had shrunk to the vicinity of Confucius Temple in the southeast of Nanjing, occupying a few blocks and resisting stubbornly, and would soon be destroyed!

……

At the time of receiving the report, Matsui Ishine was playing against Tsukada.

After listening to the report, Tsukada said with a smile: "Your Excellency General, it seems that you don't have to wait until tomorrow, you can completely wipe out the Shina Army tonight and occupy the whole city of Nanjing, hehe." ”

"Hmm." Matsui Ishine smiled reservedly and said, "It seems that NHK is still engaged in this killing contest that is very powerful, and it has occupied Nanjing City so quickly!" ”

“NHK？ What does this have to do with them? Tsukada knew what Matsui Shigen wanted to hear, and said disapplaudedly at the moment, "A mere killing competition is not so useful, this is inseparable from the courage of the soldiers of various divisions and detachments to kill the enemy, and the command of Your Excellency the General is even more decisive!" ”

"Hehe, where!" Matsui Shigen's mouth grinned to the root of his ears, and he said, "Tsukada-kun is serious, when it comes to commanding, it's not you and Iinuma-kun who are hosting, I'm just making a board." ”

This is a sedan chair carrying people, and the same is true for the little devils.
