Chapter 294: Bloody Nanjing (1)

Yang Ling did not stay after leaving the field hospital, and went straight back to Daguang Road, the temporary resting place of the guerrilla battalion. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

He really wanted to remind Zhang Hongying to leave early, after all, the city of Nanjing was already in danger and very dangerous, but thinking of the order issued by the garrison commander to strictly prohibit crossing the river, he couldn't help but want to scold.

They are now trapped in the cage of Nanjing City, the Xiaguan Ferry is strictly guarded by the 36th Division, and there is Hu Zongnan's First Army on the opposite bank, and those who cross the river without permission will be killed.

Since no one can leave now, Yang Ling also gave up his plan to remind her, anyway, his troops are fighting near Guanghua Gate, even if the city is broken, he can protect her in time.

Seeing that Yang Ling came back with a lot of gauze bandages, Xizi, the only health soldier in the battalion, happily took it.

"Battalion commander, you are really amazing, I have run several medical teams, and I haven't gotten anything, where did you get so many bandages?"

Yang Ling handed a large roll of bandages to the health soldier Xizi's hand, thought for a while and said, "I have acquaintances in the field hospital."

When Xizi heard that Yang Ling had an acquaintance in the field hospital, she immediately became excited, and pulled Yang Ling, who was about to leave, and said: "Battalion commander, since you have acquaintances, let's see if you can get some anti-inflammatory drugs or painkillers, and if you really can't get some disinfectant alcohol, you can also get some disinfectant alcohol-"

"I asked, they have a quota for these medicines, they can only use them for the seriously injured, and these bandages are also hard to get, save some use, and we will find a way when the time comes." Yang Ling helplessly patted Xizi on the shoulder and said.

This war has been fought for several months, and the country's stored materials have almost been consumed, and the coastal factories are on the way to Wuhan, Chongqing and other inland areas, and they are unable to produce at all, and the relatively huge consumption of buying them from abroad is also a drop in the bucket.

Now there is not only a shortage of weapons and ammunition in the army, but also a pitiful lack of life-saving medicines, and even bandages are removed from the dead and boiled and reused, and this poor and weak country is experiencing many difficulties.

When Kiko heard that she couldn't get medicine, she also sighed: "I can only suffer those injured brothers......

Yang Ling is also powerless about this kind of thing, it's not just that their troops lack medicine, but all the troops are lacking, which is not something that his small battalion commander can solve.

Yang Ling opened his mouth to divert the topic and asked, ""Xizi, how did you do what I asked you to do?"

Now there is only one health soldier in the battalion, and it is a baby bump, because no one knows when he will be injured, and he needs Kiko to save his life.

Yang Ling also realized this problem, one health soldier is definitely not enough, so he selected some flexible student soldiers to take time to learn from Xizi, hoping to train a few more health soldiers, which can greatly reduce the mortality rate of soldiers.

Kiko replied, "They learned well, and it was no problem to simply treat wounds and bandage them."

Yang Ling nodded: "That's good, it's okay to teach them more, I will be rewarded for teaching them well."

"Yes!" When Xizi heard Yang Ling's words, her heart suddenly blossomed: "Battalion commander, then I'll continue to teach them-"

"Go ahead."

Yang Ling saw Xizi who looked like he had been beaten with chicken blood, and a smile appeared on his face, if Xizi could really teach a group of health soldiers, then it would be a great good thing for the camp, and he would not hesitate to reward him.

The brothers of the guerrilla battalion rested for the night, and the AFS was well fed with food and drink, and they became energetic again, and the rumbling of artillery outside did not affect their mood in the slightest.

For these soldiers, who pin their heads to their belts, they will die on the battlefield at any time, and perhaps a bomb, or a stray bullet, will kill them, so they will not miss any opportunity to relax.

"Come on, come on, bet bet!" The company commander Wang Huzi likes gambling the most, and at this moment he shouted at a group of people to gamble together.

When they returned from the battlefield, they always had a lot of devil's gadgets seized on them, and things like pocket watches and sabers were very popular, and they could be sold for a lot of silver dollars on the black market, so they also became bets at the moment.

In addition to these brothers who gambled together, there were also some people who were talking and laughing in a daze against the wall, and there were also cheeky people who came to the women on the side of the AFS to laugh, looking like ruffians.

The brothers were nervous on the battlefield, and now they are retreating here to rest, as long as they don't do anything out of the ordinary, Yang Ling doesn't bother to care about them, just let them go crazy, and Yang Ling still understands that if they are blindly suppressed, the effect will not be good.

Yang Ling also picked up a broken newspaper by himself, sat down against the wall, first pulled out his shell gun to clean and maintain, and then took out the 79 rifle and unloaded it to wipe it.

The gun is the second life of a soldier, and it can not only kill the enemy on the battlefield, but also protect itself, so it must be cleaned and maintained from time to time to keep it in the best condition and not get stuck and drop the chain at the critical moment.

The guerrilla battalion did not wait for a new order all morning, which was a good thing for them, after all, they did not have to go to the battlefield to fight hard, and they could live a little longer.

But as soon as lunch passed, they felt a different atmosphere, there was a dull roar outside the city, and the ground trembled, as if it had been smashed by a heavy hammer, and they knew that it was the devil's heavy howitzer pulling up.

The veterans of the guerrilla battalion have all suffered from the devil's heavy howitzers, and they can be reimbursed for half a company with one shot, and sometimes the corpses are blown up, leaving only pieces of flesh.

The dull sound of artillery outside the city was getting closer and closer, the wounded who were wailing and screaming kept coming down from the front, and the veterans had no heart to play and laugh, and the atmosphere became solemn.

Yang Ling also knew that although there were several troops guarding them outside, they had all fought for many days and suffered heavy losses, in this case, it was difficult to say whether they could hold it, and they might not be able to rest for long.

"A knife, get the brethren ready." Yang Ling climbed to the roof of the house, held Cao Changjing to observe the direction outside the city, and saw the smoke and dust billowing there, and the fight was fierce, so that the brothers could also prepare.

The brethren began to prepare in silence, tying leggings and loading ammunition, and an atmosphere of tension and unease filled the air.

Yang Ling and they were preparing on the Great Light Road, and there was already the sound of gunfire at the Guanghua Gate on the front line, and the thick smoke of gunpowder filled the entire space.

The 36th Wing of the Devils, which had attacked the vicinity of Guanghua Gate, called for heavy artillery support, and the howitzers deployed at Gaoqiao Gate carried out a heavy artillery bombardment of the Chinese defenders near Guanghua Gate for half an hour.

In the face of overwhelming artillery attacks, the defenders had to withdraw from the Zhonghe Bridge block, retreat to Guanghua Gate, and rely on the moat and machine guns arranged on the city wall to block the devil's attack.

However, the Devil's Ninth Engineer Brigade broke through to the bottom of the city wall, and blasted a gap in the city wall by blasting, and the bricks and stones jumped, and the sediment filled in the city wall poured out, forming a gentle slope.

The devil's infantry death squad took the opportunity to charge along this gentle slope to the city, and Xie Chengrui, the commander of the second regiment of the teaching corps guarding here, personally led the team to plug the gap, but the devil's mountain artillery also pushed to 600 meters to the right side of the moat and bombarded the defenders on the gap.

Many soldiers who went to plug the gap were immediately blown down to the city, and even the regiment commander Xie Chengrui was injured and rescued, and the devil infantry death squad took the opportunity to rush up the city wall along the gentle slope.

"Yikes!" The devils who rushed up the city wall saw dozens of Chinese soldiers standing in front of them, bared their teeth and screamed, rushed forward with bayonets, and then stabbed them all out of the city, and Guanghua Gate was broken through for the first time.

The commander of the 36th Wing, Jiro Wakita, saw their blood-red sunburst flag fluttering on the city wall in the telescope, and immediately turned red with excitement.

"Order the first brigade captain Ito Yoshimitsu Shaosa to immediately assault the city to expand the results! I will have the fire support of the 9th Mountain Artillery Brigade! ”

"Call the division headquarters, my 36th Wing has taken the lead in attacking Nanjing at 1 p.m.!"

"Hey!" The herald hurried away.

Seeing that their troops were the first to attack Nanjing, this glory belonged to the 36th Wing, and they would become the focus of attention, thinking of these 36th Wing Captain Wakiita Jiro Osa, he swung his fist excitedly.
