The sound of robbery, cannons, and shouts of killing has gradually stopped on the smoke-filled Yuhuatai, and all that remains on the Yuhuatai is the desolation after the battle. The defensive battle of Yuhuatai is only a microcosm of the entire defense of Nanjing, and the battles in Guanghuamen, Bauhinia Mountain and other places are not nothing to sing and cry about.

Shao Fei couldn't hear the gunshots coming from Yuhuatai and suddenly stopped, seeing his solemn expression, he turned to look at Yuhuatai. He knew that the battle of Yuhuatai was over, and he also knew that General Gao Zhisong and Commander Han Xianyuan had been martyred, and the two lines of tears in the corners of his eyes flowed uncontrollably.

Zhuzi understood Shao Fei's painful mood at this time, and patted Shao Fei: "Squad leader, let's go."

Shao Fei didn't have any extra words, turned around and followed the large army and marched quickly towards Zhonghua Gate.

More than 2,000 lightly and seriously wounded and some escort soldiers retreated to the Zhonghua Gate under the leadership of the acting brigade commander Liao Lingqi. However, the Zhonghua Gate has been blocked, and there are no ladders and long locks in the city, so they cannot enter the city.

Sun Yuanliang, the commander of the 88th Division, watched the more than 2,000 soldiers on the city wall, who could be chased and killed by the Japanese army at any time, and was sweating profusely. He repeatedly gestured for them to immediately go around the city and enter the city through other gates. The more than 2,000 people were forced to walk around the city.

"Spit Spit Spit

During the march of the large army, the Japanese machine guns in the distance suddenly opened heavy fire on them, and the large army suffered some casualties.

Shao Fei shouted with an angry look: "Kill the machine gunner!"

The special combat team members immediately squatted down to make a sniper posture, "Bang! Bang! Bang" quickly pulled the bolt of the gun, and fired several shots in succession, the machine gunners were killed one after another, and the machine gun sound suddenly stopped.

Shao Fei snatched it, his spirit was different from the usual concentration, and he found a Shaozuo devil officer at four hundred meters away, "Bang! With a single shot, the bullet flew out, hitting the five-pointed star of the young officer's hat, killing him instantly.

"Let's go!"

Shao Fei shouted and continued to hurry with the special combat team. But the Japanese machine guns again rang out one after another, mixed with rifles. The special combat team members and the soldiers of the 88th Division fought and retreated, and finally barely reached Rujiangmen.

"Don't take a step forward, or you'll shoot!"

The defenders Song Xilian's 36th Division was ordered not to allow anyone to pass. The muzzles of the guns were pointed at the 2,000 wounded soldiers of the 88th Division.

"******! Our 88th Division fought a bloody battle in Yuhuatai for four days and four nights, and we came back and suffered from this nest! ”

Liao Lingqi ignored his identity and scolded his mother. It's no wonder that he didn't scold his mother to vent, the 88th Division died with such a brother, and he was treated like this by friendly soldiers, and there was nowhere to release the fire in his heart.

"Who are you scolding, this is the order of the superiors."

This is Song Xilian, the commander of the 36th Division, who walked over and said to Han Xianyuan.

Han Xianyuan completely ignored the relationship between his superiors and subordinates, pointed to the 2,000 wounded soldiers behind him, and said angrily: "Don't let us pass, will you let my two thousand wounded soldiers feed the devil again?"

Song Xilian expressed helplessness and said: "An order is an order, and I can't help it."

The preparations for the retreat of the troops were known as early as the morning of 12, but no one informed the 36th Division guarding the Jiangmen. This also caused a great deal of confusion in the retreat.

At this time, Sun Yuanliang, the commander of the 88th Division, personally rushed to coordinate before letting them pass. Because on the morning of the 12th, the division commanders already knew that they were going to retreat, but Tang Shengzhi did not issue it. So Song Xilian did not resolutely stop them, after all, it was also necessary to evacuate the wounded.

"Thank you."

After Sun Yuanliang thanked him, he walked in front of Han Xianyuan and said, "Go to the ferry, three hundred boats are ready, and when you arrive, you will cross the river immediately and go to Xuzhou."

Han Xianyuan was in a contradiction and said, "Then the division commander, you ......"

Sun Yuanliang waved his hand, then looked at the two thousand wounded soldiers behind Han Xianyuan, and said: "Ze Shu, the burden on your shoulders is very heavy, maybe these two thousand wounded soldiers are the last seeds of the 88th Division, you must take them out of Nanjing alive."

Sun Yuanliang's tone seemed to mean goodbye, as if telling Han Xianyuan that he wanted to live and die with Nanjing.

At this time, Sun Yuanliang found Shao Fei, so he walked up to Shao Fei and slapped it hard: "Good young man." I still don't know why you deliberately ran to help the 88th Division, but it doesn't matter now. On behalf of the 88th Division, I thank you. Time is running out, I'm going to rush back to Zhonghua Gate. ”

Shao Fei said to Sun Yuanliang with great certainty: "General, you will definitely turn evil into good fortune."

Sun Yuanliang saw Shao Fei's expression, and his words were not as simple as sending auspicious words before leaving, as if he already knew the result. So he politely replied: "Borrow your auspicious words."

After speaking, Sun Yuanliang returned to Zhonghua Gate to continue the battle.

Subsequently, Han Xianyuan took 2,000 wounded soldiers through the 36th Division defense area and came to the ferry. The baggage battalion of the 88th Division has received an order, and 300 fishing boats are waiting for Han Xianyuan and them. But at the same time, there were also Dai Huan and his subordinates, as well as the twelve people Shao Fei asked for.

Han Xianyuan was very surprised when he saw Dai Huan, this is a military area, and it is impossible for ordinary people to appear here, so he stepped forward and asked, "Who are you, why did you appear here?"

Dai Huanshen was lazy, and complained loudly to Shao Fei: "Brother Niu, you can tell the little brother to wait."

Shao Fei immediately stepped forward and said to Han Xianyuan: "They are the people of the military commander, and behind them are the people I want, I hope that Brigade Commander Han will be accommodating and take those twelve people across the river together."

"Hey, hey, Brother Niu, you're not interesting enough, just take the twelve people you want, so what should we do?"

Dai Huan had the expression of a clown jumping off the beam, but Shao Fei ignored it. And Han Xianyuan was surprised and suddenly realized at the same time, and said: "I understand, this is the reason why you helped our 88th Division." But brother, I don't understand that the day after you came to Yuhuatai, Brigade Commander Gao promised you any request, why didn't you make it at that time? ”

Shao Fei replied: "I want to fight with the 88th Division until the last moment."

Shao Fei's words moved Han Xianyuan, and at the same time, he admired Shao Fei even more. Although he came for the purpose, he also sincerely helped the 88th Division.

Dai Huan felt that he was being ignored, and he was dissatisfied, and complained: "Hey, I'm a military commander, it's good for you big brother to give some face."

Han Xianyuan, like most of the officers, did not like military commanders, so he ordered: "Take those twelve people on board."

After speaking, Han Xianyuan began to arrange for the wounded behind him to board the ship in an orderly manner, ignoring Dai Huan.

"It's rude." Dai Huan waved his hand at Han Xianyuan, then walked up to Shao Fei, looked at Shao Fei's bloody military uniform, and said with a smile: "Killed a lot of devils, right?" Shouldn't you thank me? ”

"I thank you whole family." Shao Fei said unceremoniously.

Shao Fei seemed to poke Dai Huan's pain, his face immediately became ugly, and he leaked a murderous aura, as if he wanted to bite Shao Fei to death with his fangs now, and then said gloomily: "My whole family has already died, you have to thank you and go underground to thank you."

Shao Fei didn't expect that he stepped on the other party's tail with his unintentional words, and saw that Dai Huan's face was gloomy and wanted to leave, so he asked, "You want to go back to Nanjing?" ”

Dai Huan was not interested before, and said to Shao Fei with an expressionless face: "Nanjing will fall and become hell." I'm a demon, and that's where I belong. ”

After speaking, Dai Huan took his subordinates and prepared to leave, but he didn't take a few steps, stopped, turned his back to Shao Fei and said: "I forgot to tell you, I didn't move, I'm still on the 9th, but my patience is limited, and I only live for 2 days." ”

Shao Fei didn't understand the meaning of Dai Huan's words, and the person had already walked away. Shao Fei thought that his mission was nearing the end, but he didn't know that Dai Huan had just played the devil's prologue in front of him, and Dai Huan's expression had just begun.

Subsequently, these 2,000 people used the 300 fishing boats reserved by the 88th Division's baggage battalion to finally cross the Yangtze River, and it was already 5 o'clock in the afternoon, and Tang Shengzhi issued a serious retreat order at this time.
