Song Zuyi didn't know if it was their reinforcements who were fighting the Japanese army outside the city, but he knew that whether he could stabilize the people now depends on his ability, because this is the only chance.

The soldiers and civilians in the city only heard the gunshots outside the city, and they couldn't tell what was going on at all, but they just kept pouring out of Datong City, they just wanted to escape, but this was really a point of no return, the Japanese machine guns hit the barrels of the guns, but people still kept pouring out, and the south of the city was bleeding like a river, and no one could stop the uncontrollable crowd at all.

The Japanese army didn't care whether these people had weapons in their hands or not, each of them had blood on their hands, until the corpses blocked the gate of Datong, and the number of people rushing out of the city became fewer, but there were still people who wanted to run outside the city.

"Fathers and fellow villagers, fathers and fellow villagers, listen to me!"

Song Zuyi finally rushed to the city gate with people, although few people are pouring out of the city, but more people are still blocked at the city gate, in case the reinforcements outside the city are really reinforced, once they break through the encirclement of the little devils, they will definitely enter the city, if the fleeing people are blocked here, the troops will not be able to enter the city with Ben.

The cannon outside the city rumbled, the crowd was dense and chaotic, and Song Zuyi's voice was like a stone falling into the sea, and he didn't get any response.

Song Zuyi understood that if he wanted to control these irrational people and soldiers, he had to calm them down first, otherwise everything he did would have no effect, and everything he did would be useless.

The crowd continued to be bustling, and they didn't pay attention to Song Zuyi at all, because they only cared about whether they could survive at this time, and where could they hear the voices of others.

Looking at the crowd in front of him, Song Zuyi's expression suddenly became cold, now there is only one way to stop the crowd who have lost their minds, he doesn't want to do this, but he doesn't have any choice.

"You two come with me!" Song Zuyi shouted loudly to the two city government workers beside him.

They squeezed through the bustling crowd and approached the city gate with difficulty, and some of the brave people were still rushing out of the city, but there was only one end result, and that was death.

Song Zuyi didn't care about those who didn't want to die, what he wanted now was to keep these people who were still hesitating, let them evacuate the city gate, and wait for reinforcements to enter the city, so that they wouldn't block the way into the city.

Song Zuyi walked in front of a soldier and snatched it directly from his hand, and the soldier instinctively wanted to snatch it back, but between Song Zuyi's skillful * bullet (here to be written separately, I found that a lot of words designed in front of him to "bullet" and "piercing * medicine" were all river crabs, and I was helpless) loaded and aimed the gun at his head.

This soldier thought that Song Zuyi was going to rush out of the city with *, so he had to obediently retreat, away from this madman who came out of nowhere.

However, Song Zuyi, who walked to the city gate, turned his head directly, and faced thousands of people alone: "I repeat, fathers and fellow villagers, please be quiet, I have something to say!" ”

However, the crowd still ignored Song Zuyi's meaning.

"Da Da Da"

When the gunshots rang out, the crowd immediately boiled, and then as the gunshots ended, the crowd immediately fell silent.

"I'm Song Zuyi, deputy mayor of Datong City!" Song Zuyi shouted loudly, "Now that Datong City has been surrounded by Japanese troops, you have also seen the people who rushed out of the city gate, no one is alive, do you also want to send them to death?" ”

This time, someone finally listened to Song Zuyi quietly, if you want others to listen to you reasonably, first you must have the ability to beat the other party down, otherwise how could he listen to you and reason well. What Song Zuyi has in his hands is the capital to beat down the crowd, and only those who have lost their minds like this will listen to your reasoning.

Obviously, someone recognized it as Song Zuyi, after all, Song Zuyi was the deputy mayor who was ordered by Liao Fan, and he also appeared in public.

"As an official, I hope you can go home and stay at home honestly! Don't do stupid things! ”

"Why should we listen to you, the little devil will definitely kill people when he rushes into the city, we are honest and stupid, only by leaving Datong can we live!" Soon the crowd had different voices.

"Look outside the city, the Japanese army is tightly surrounded, will they give you a way to live? You have only one dead end here, and I can assure you that as long as you stay honest at home, I want you to be all right! ”

"Nonsense, Brother Fan has fallen, Brigade Commander Huang is missing, our division commander has also fallen, the dragons in Datong City have no leader, if you want to hold Datong, it is impossible!" At this time, a man in military uniform stood up, looking as if he was still an officer.

"They are down, but Datong City will return you and me! You have guns and weapons in your hands, but you are willing to run away among the common people, do you still have the face to wear this military uniform on your body? Do you still have the face to eat the rations saved by the common people? Now Datong is in trouble, but you don't want to fight the enemy desperately, and you even want to escape! As the deputy mayor, I really can't meddle in the affairs of military power, otherwise I will definitely deal with you on the spot with military law to set an example! ”

Song Zuyi is from a big family, and his education is not ordinary, so he is at least a bachelor's degree now, so it is natural to scold people.

When the soldiers heard this, they were naturally ashamed, and when they won the battle, the people cheered for them and welcomed them with pot pulp, but now that they had fled, they were mixed with the common people, and there was no way to raise their heads to meet people.

Just when Song Zuyi's words took effect, a large group of fleeing citizens came from the rear: "Oh no! Oh no! The Japanese army is coming into the city! ”

A simple sentence shouted a lot of truths that Song Zuyi said to the clouds. The crowd became chaotic again, and the fleeing citizens began to flee outside the city despite Song Zuyi's obstruction.

Song Zuyi was also a little tricky by the sudden situation, and finally let the crowd settle down, but now everything has come to naught.

"Da Da Da"

The gunshots seemed to be unable to deter the crowd, and no one paid attention to Song Zuyi in the panic.

"Da Da Da"

The gunshots were still ringing, but this time Song Zuyi did not aim the gun at the sky, but at the fleeing crowd, and a shuttle* bullet was shot, and seven or eight people fell in a pool of blood, and everyone was stunned.

Song Zuyi gasped, he was killing for the first time, and he still killed unarmed, law-abiding citizens of Datong, but for the sake of the overall situation, he could only do this.

The chaotic scene quieted down again, and everyone's eyes looked at Song Zuyi in unison, with unwillingness, fear, and confusion in their eyes...... However, no one dared to take half a step closer to the city gate.

Song Zuyi also understood that if he flicked this shuttle*, all his future would be ruined, even including his life.

"Go home, stay honest at home, as long as I, Song Zuyi, live, you will definitely be fine!"

Song Zuyi only said this sentence to the fleeing citizens, and the citizens went back honestly, mainly because the fleeing citizens were afraid of the guns in Song Zuyi's hands, the guns of the Japanese army were invisible, and Song Zuyi's guns were bright and dangling in front of them, which made them even more afraid.

"The soldiers present don't care who your commander is, and I don't care why you ran away, but now you have a goal, that is, to fight for Datong, for your division commander, and for your Fan Ge, if you don't want to be unable to raise your head for the rest of your life, use the weapons in your hands to drive the little devil out of Datong!"

It seems that all this is very simple, but everyone present has seen how a helpless person can turn the tide on his own, if he does not have the position of deputy mayor, he is just an ordinary citizen.

Before the gathered people dispersed, the fleeing soldiers seemed to find something in their hearts, where they joined the army, not only for military salaries, for military rations, their purpose was very simple, that is, to go into battle to kill the enemy and defend the country.

And now that the enemy is at the doorstep, they have chosen to flee, and when they flee back, how to explain to their families, because there is no commander because they are afraid of death, or they want to be cowards for the rest of their lives.

The soldiers began to walk back one after another, even if there was only one lonely figure, even if he was not able to turn the tide, they had to throw themselves into the battlefield, because they were soldiers, and this was the mission of soldiers.

In front of the city gate, the crowd began to become thinner, Song Zuyi breathed a long sigh of relief, and then looked at the fallen citizens, his eyes were complicated, but he had already done it, and he did not regret it.

"I'll go back to the office, the two of you will stay, find someone to clean up the corpse as much as possible, and then welcome reinforcements into the city!"

"Vice Mayor Song, I ...... We...... Do we really have reinforcements? ”

"Yes, there will be!"

Song Zuyi returned to the office, sitting alone in the office, listening to the sound of gunfire in the distance, his spirit began to trance. After resting for a while, Song Zuyi took out a pen and paper from the drawer and began to write a letter.

The first letter was addressed to his family, and the second letter was addressed to Liao Fan, who was not sure if Liao Fan could see it, and finally changed the letter to all the soldiers of the New 33rd Army.

After writing these two letters, Song Zuyi folded them, put them under the book and pressed them, and then opened another drawer, in which there was a pistol......

The Japanese army in the north of the city did attack Datong, there was no soldier defense, the Japanese army easily entered Datong, just when they thought that Datong would be easily taken like this, one by one the soldiers of the new 33rd Army were thrown into the battlefield, so that they did not react at all.

Dense gunfire immediately rang out in Datong City, and more and more soldiers threw themselves into the battle and began to fight street battles with the Japanese army, and the Japanese army's attack was delayed and it was impossible to advance at all.

The citizens also returned to their homes, the doors were closed, the doors and windows of the houses were closed, and the gunfire made them speechless, and they could only pray silently, hoping that the soldiers would be able to resist the pace of the Japanese attack.
