Chapter 299: Bloody Nanjing (6)

The headquarters of Liu Xing, the deputy commander of the garrison, had withdrawn to the city, and the loss of the Guanghua Gate section of the city wall made him restless, which was like a dike, and if the gap was not plugged in time, it was likely to cause the collapse of the entire line.

After Yang Ling's reinforcements went up, he climbed onto the roof and held a telescope to pay attention to the battlefield situation.

In the telescope, there was a fierce exchange of fire near the Guanghua Gate, and the thick smoke from the explosion obscured the view, and the smoke was so thick that it was impossible to see anything clearly.

Liu Xing simply sat on the roof, smoking cigarette after cigarette, his fingers holding the cigarette were a little trembling, and he was uneasy in his heart, he already had the worst plan, if Yang Ling couldn't recapture the city wall, he was ready to take the guard battalion to plug the gap in person.

"Sir Liu, it's dangerous up there, let's come down and hide first."

Staff officer Liu Ming was very worried about Liu Xing's safety, the devil's artillery was extending into the city, and he wanted to persuade Liu Xing to come down from the roof.

Liu Xing didn't care at all, the wind and waves were coming, and he really didn't pay attention to the devil's artillery fire, and he was not interested in the persuasion of staff officer Liu Ming.

Liu Ming was also standing below, and there was no way to do it, so he sighed and shook his head.

Fortunately, good news soon came, the guerrilla battalion led by Yang Ling not only eliminated all the devils who broke into the city, but also recaptured the city wall and plugged the gap.

"I didn't misread him, I didn't misread him!"

Liu Xing, the deputy commander of the garrison, was a little incoherent with excitement, and kept praising Yang Ling in his mouth.

Soon he reacted from his excitement, turned his head to staff officer Liu Ming and instructed: "Staff Officer Liu, immediately order Yang Ling to consolidate the defensive line on the spot and prevent the enemy from counterattacking."

Staff officer Liu Ming smiled bitterly and reported: "Chief Liu, Battalion Commander Yang has already led the troops out of the city to fight a counterattack, leaving only one platoon in the gap in the city wall......"

Hearing this, Liu Xing was also shocked, "Why is he Yang Ling so reckless!" It's just nonsense! What kind of counterattack are they fighting with a battalion, isn't this touching eggs and stones?! ”

Liu Xing was very angry, the devils are all elite field troops, even if they fail, their strength is still there, he doesn't believe that a battalion in Yangling District can make a difference in counterattacking, I am afraid that when the time comes, not only will the counterattack not succeed, but will suffer heavy losses, and the city wall will be lost again.

"Order Yang Ling to withdraw for me immediately!"

"Let Xie Chengrui's second regiment block the gap in Guanghuamen and cover Yang Ling's retreat!" Liu Xing added.

"Chief Liu, Regiment Commander Xie also followed the counterattack......"

Liu Xing was so angry that he trembled: "Nonsense! Yang Ling was reckless, Xie Chengrui was crazy with his head! ”

Staff officer Liu Ming stood with his hands down, looked at the angry Liu Xing, and was silent, with his understanding of Yang Ling, he would definitely not fight a battle that he was not sure of, and it was really impossible to say whether he was messing around.

"Wu Jiang, you immediately take a company from the guard battalion, no, take two companies to Guanghuamen, be sure to guard the gap for me!"

"Yes!" Wu Jiang, deputy commander of the guard battalion, answered, and hurriedly led people straight to Guanghua Gate.

Just when Liu Xing was upset, Section Chief Lu, the person in charge of the ammunition depot with a blue nose and swollen face, rushed to the Guanghuamen front-line headquarters with a sad face.

"Sir Liu, you have to call the shots for me!"

As soon as Chief Lu stepped into the door with his back feet, he had already knelt down on his front knee and fell at Liu Xing's feet, wailing with a handful of snot and tears.

The staff officers in the headquarters all looked at Section Chief Lu, who had a blue nose and swollen face, and didn't know what was going on.

Liu Xing knew this Section Chief Lu, and also knew that He Yaozu, the director of the Military Committee, was his relative, so he also specially called Section Chief Lu over to warn him, asking him to ensure the supply of ammunition to the front-line troops, worried that this Section Chief Lu would be derelict in his duties.

Now seeing Lu Ke with a long nose and a swollen face coming over to shout grievances, Liu Xing was already upset, but there were so many broken things, he frowned and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"Sir Liu, you have to make the decision for me, someone not only looted the ammunition depot, but also beat me, and threatened to kill me! I'm not alive anymore! ”

"What! Who is so bold as to rob ammunition depots! Liu Xing was also shocked, shocked, and suddenly stood up: "Say, they belong to that unit, I will punish them severely!"

Now that the war on the front line is tight, the importance of the ammunition depot is self-evident, and now someone has robbed the ammunition depot, how can he not be angry.

Seeing Liu Xing's anger, a look of pride flashed on Section Chief Lu's fat face, and then he continued to cry: "It's the guerrilla battalion, and the leader is the battalion commander named Yang Ling, who has robbed countless ammunition ......"

Staff Officer Liu Ming heard that Section Chief Lu said it was Yang Ling, and he suddenly chuckled in his heart, feeling that something was wrong.

Without waiting for Liu Xing to speak, he hurriedly spoke: "Section Chief Lu, this meal can be eaten indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense, you said that Battalion Commander Yang has any evidence of looting the ammunition depot?" I know he's leading troops to fight the devils in Guanghuamen—"

"The soldiers guarding the ammunition depot can testify to me that the wounds on my body were all caused by him Yang Ling!" Speaking of this, Section Chief Lu cried again: "He almost killed me, Chief Liu, I almost won't see you-"

"Alright, alright, stop crying, stand up and talk." Liu Xing was upset by Section Chief Lu's crying, and waved his hand impatiently to get him up.

"Chief Liu, Battalion Commander Yang is fighting bloodily with devils on the front line, this is just based on Section Chief Lu's words to conclude that it is Battalion Commander Yang's fault, I'm afraid it's unfair, it's better to wait for Battalion Commander Yang to come back, investigate and then discuss right and wrong, do you think that's good?"

Staff officer Liu Ming once fought with Yang Ling in a trench, Yang Ling had a life-saving grace for him, and he was also trying his best to speak for Yang Ling at this moment.

Section Chief Lu's eyes flashed with viciousness: "Chief Liu, if you don't give the order to arrest the person surnamed Yang, you will run away, I heard them say that this Nanjing can't be defended, and they want to rush out with weapons and ammunition, and they want to be deserters."

Liu Xing was still hesitating, after all, now holding Yang Ling accountable was afraid that it would chill the hearts of the brothers, and when he suddenly heard Section Chief Lu say this, he was immediately furious.

"You're telling the truth?!"

Chief Lu patted his chest and said, "I heard it so clearly!"

Staff Officer Liu Ming was also anxious, and hurriedly said: "Section Chief Lu, don't you spew blood, how can Battalion Commander Yang be a deserter."

"I'll vouch for my head, then Yang Ling is going to be a deserter!"

Liu Xing thought that Yang Ling had privately led the troops out of the city to fight a counterattack, and he was also a little suspicious of Yang Ling, and was about to order Yang Ling to be brought back for interrogation, when dusty soldiers rushed into the headquarters.

"Report!"

The people who came knocked their heels on the ground, saluted Liu Xing and shouted: "Sir, our guerrilla battalion has repelled the devils and recaptured the Zhonghe Bridge position!"

"What?!" Liu Xing strode forward: "You said that you recaptured the position of Zhonghe Bridge?"

"Just got it back! The devil has retreated to the area of the engineering school, and the battalion commander asked me to come back and ask for ammunition support! ”

Liu Xing stroked his palms and smiled: "Okay! Wow! ”

Section Chief Lu was also secretly bitter in his heart at this moment, he didn't expect this surnamed Yang to be so powerful.

Liu Ming was also very happy: "Section Chief Lu, I'm afraid you heard it wrong, Yang Ling and they are not going to be deserters, but to fight devils, you hurry up and go back to prepare ammunition, and hurry up to Battalion Commander Yang and transport them over."

Chief Lu turned to Liu Xing: "Chief Liu, but they plundered the ammunition depot......

"Section Chief Lu, there must be a misunderstanding in this, let's end this matter." Liu Xing interrupted Section Chief Lu's words.

Section Chief Lu also understood at this moment, this was Liu Xing's reluctance to pursue the matter, and he could only eat Coptis dumbly, swallowing bitterness in his stomach.

When Section Chief Lu said goodbye and left, Liu Xing sighed, if there were less intrigue and more people who contributed to the country, how could the country become what it is today.
