Chapter 100: The atmosphere is tense
Four devil soldiers disguised as refugees were killed and wounded, and the three who were alive were escorted by a platoon of troops sent by regimental deputy Liu Ming to the division headquarters set up on the Beijing-Shanghai railway line. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although the soldiers strongly demanded that these devils and spies be killed immediately, they were stopped by Liu Ming on the grounds that they were sent to the division headquarters for interrogation, and they knew the little Jiujiu Yang Ling in the heart of Liu Ming, the deputy of the regiment.
The Battle of Songhu lasted for almost three months, and only a handful of devil prisoners were caught, because the defenders had been losing and retreating, and they couldn't catch it if they wanted to, even if they really encountered a lone devil to be caught, they would pay a great price.
Although these devil soldiers are short in stature, they are fierce and fierce, and sometimes they have to pay several times the price in order to catch a live defender, coupled with their hatred for devils, they generally fight to the death when they see devils when they come and go, and they can't think of catching them alive at all.
Now that he has captured three live devil captives at once, it can be regarded as a great achievement, and Liu Ming, the deputy of the regiment, will naturally not let go of this opportunity to ask for merit and reward.
The devil who died was thrown into the barren grassland outside the river bridge, and the violent corpse was in the wilderness, which can be regarded as a bad breath for those comrades-in-arms who were killed by the devil.
The refugees were carefully cleaned up, and no more devil spies were found, and at dawn Yang Ling sent them out of the town, and warned them to go west or north, not to Nanjing, because Yang Ling knew that after a month, Nanjing would not be able to hold.
The devil's spies died and sent away, and the refugees also left, but Yang Ling's heart was extremely heavy, since the devil's spy had arrived at Jiangqiao, then the devil's army would definitely not be far away.
Whether it was the devil from the east or the devil from the south Yang Ling couldn't guess because he didn't interrogate, but there was no doubt that the devil had already set his sights on Jiangqiao.
Thinking that the devil had already set his sights on Jiang Qiao, Yang Ling felt like he was on pins and needles.
I don't know when the devil will come to Yang Ling, but Yang Ling is not a person who is tied up, and if you want to live, you have to be prepared.
After figuring out this layer, Yang Ling immediately went straight to the temporary regimental headquarters of the supplementary regiment, a high-walled compound in the center of the town.
"Company Commander Yang is here, sit down, sit down." Seeing Yang Ling coming, Liu Ming, the deputy of the regiment, pushed his glasses and hurriedly welcomed him in.
Yang Ling caught three devil spies, but it was a great achievement, although the final credit had to fall on his head Liu Ming, but he had to thank Yang Ling, so he was also a lot more enthusiastic about Yang Ling.
"Company Commander Yang, I have already sent someone to the division headquarters for the devil and the spy, the reward should come down soon, you will be the first merit at that time, if you are promoted, don't forget my brother and me, haha." Liu Ming poured Yang Ling a glass of water and handed it to Yang Ling, and teased.
Yang Ling smiled, he really didn't take Liu Ming's compliment to heart, and directly diverted the topic: "Deputy Tuan, I didn't come this time because of the devil's scheming matter."
Liu Ming hesitated: "Oh? What difficulties did Company Commander Yang encounter? You can say that there is absolutely no ambiguity in what I can help with. ”
"The devil sent spies to our Jiangqiao Town to investigate, which means that the devils have been eyeing us here, if the front line can't be held, we may be the first to bear the brunt here, after all, from us to the north can cut off the Beijing-Shanghai line......"
"And what do you mean?"
"First of all, we should report the situation to the division headquarters to see if we can send us some reinforcements, and secondly, we should immediately take action to build fortifications."
Liu Ming was also frightened by Yang Ling's words, because the excitement of catching the devil's spy was like pouring a basin of cold water, if the devil really wanted to fight here, then it was hard to say whether he would have a chance to live to receive the reward.
Liu Ming originally thought that guarding the river bridge was an easy matter, after all, this was located at the rear of the battlefield, but now that the devil's reconnaissance and spies have arrived, then the attacks should follow one after another, and he was a little crying in his heart at the moment, he was so unlucky.
However, without the order from above, he did not dare to evacuate without authorization, so the only way was to defend to the death, relying on the temporary pull up of the supplementary regiment, these four or five hundred people wanted to hold here, in one word, difficult.
But now the only good thing is that the devils have not yet come, everything is just their speculation that the devils want to attack here, the front line is still fighting hard, and they still have time to prepare, so Liu Ming did not hesitate, and immediately ordered his four companies to rush to repair the fortifications, while sending people to the division headquarters to ask for reinforcements.
Yang Ling and the others still guarded the street to the south, and according to Yang Ling's instructions, they built several barricades along the street, and the houses on both sides of the street that were bombed were also used, piled up with sandbags, and became a stronghold that could be retreated.
The soldiers of the supplementary regiment hurriedly built fortifications in Jiangqiao Town, and they were sweating profusely every day, but after some efforts, the fortifications of Jiangqiao Town were basically formed, as long as they were not the main force of the devils, it should not be a problem to block a few waves.
Lao Wangtou injured his arm because he was scheming by the devil, although he still had the platoon commander's life, he actually re-copied his old business and was responsible for managing the logistics and food of Yang Ling's second company.
Under the control of the old king, although they did not get any supplies from the division headquarters, they were a big bowl of fish and meat for each meal, and they lived a chic and comfortable life.
The big fish were fished by Lao Wang Tou and the people from the cooking class in the Suzhou River in the south, all of them were fat and huge, and they directly became Yang Ling's food, and the rest of them were all like this, but they couldn't be hungry.
Their peaceful days did not last long, and on the 27th, the defeated troops who had withdrawn from the front line were evacuated to the rear one after another through the river bridge, and the air was once again shrouded in the smoke of war.
On the 28th, more and more of the defeated troops were defeated and withdrawn, and they retreated in groups, and all the troops who withdrew were ragged and bloodstained, and the wounded were countless, and there were people wailing and screaming all the way, which made the supplementary regiment guarding the river bridge panic.
Yang Ling sent people to inquire about the battle situation on the front line from the defeated army, but he knew that the devils had broken into Dachang Town from the north and east, and the brother troops in front were still holding on, and it was only a matter of time before they were lost.
At the very beginning of the war, the troops in front suffered heavy losses and could not withstand it, so new troops were replaced on top, but after three months of fighting, all the troops were crippled and crushed, and there were no new reinforcements.
They stayed in the trenches outside Jiangqiao Town all day, watching the remnants of the large army withdraw, and they had been in a state of tension.
Dinner was sent to the position by the old king, the atmosphere was tense, the guns in front of him were getting closer and closer, and everyone's hearts were in their throats, and they still had the heart to eat.
In the evening, gunshots rang out in the north of Jiangqiao Town, Yang Ling thought that the devils were coming from the north, and hurriedly ordered to prepare for battle, but the gunshots only rang out a few times before stopping.
Yang Ling sent someone to inquire about the situation, and the person who came back told Yang Ling: "There were two deserters in the first company who wanted to run away, but they were shot by Deputy Liu Tuan."
Before the devil saw it, two of his own people died first, and all the people lying in the trenches were covered with a layer of haze in their hearts.
