Nanjing has become a ruin, the streets that have been blown up as soft as tofu are crowded with people, and the few streets near Xiaguan are full of people as far as the eye can see. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Yang Ling crossed the ruins and the charred corpses with a heavy heart, but when he saw those desperate and panicked crowds, his heart was like a knife.

His resolute face was full of pain, what a kind of sorrow it was for the Japanese to invade our rivers and mountains and slaughter my homeland, while they were powerless as soldiers.

Gunfire rang out from time to time in the crowd, and the fierce rout tried to break through with bullets, and from time to time shot at their own people.

Blood splattered, curses flowed, and the whole city wept and wailed, and the smoke of the ancient city under the haze was billowing out, and the blood was like hell.

"Battalion commander! Several surrounding streets are also blocked! What to do! ”

The company commander Wang Huzi anxiously rushed back to report that the road to Xiaguan was blocked, and they had no way to go.

Yang Ling instructed Wang Huzi: "Let the brothers hold hands, stay where they are, and don't be scattered by the crowd!"

Under Yang Ling's order, the remaining 400 brothers of the guerrilla camp were covered in gunpowder smoke and joined hands to protect the wounded and prevent them from being dispersed by the crowd.

Yang Ling handed the rifle to Wang Huzi, and he ran out of the team and into the next room.

"The battalion commander won't run away, will he?" Seeing Yang Ling disappear into the ruins, some brothers muttered quietly.

Liu Yidao kicked the brother a few times angrily, and scolded: "What the hell are you talking about, the battalion commander will not abandon us!"

Wang Huzi's lips squirmed, and he didn't speak, but he also had doubts in his heart, there were not a few commanders who left the troops to escape alone, and it was difficult to guarantee that Yang Ling would not run away.

Most of the houses in the city were bombed to rubble, the roofs were gone, the windows and doors were turned into holes, and only the bare and mottled walls remained.

Yang Ling climbed the wall of a house along the broken ladder, stood high and saw far away, everything around him was in full view, and when he saw the crowded street, he felt helpless in his heart.

"I said the battalion commander wouldn't leave us!" Liu Yidao grinned when he saw Yang Ling appear on the roof.

The surrounding brothers all breathed a sigh of relief, and when they saw Yang Ling standing on the wall, they felt extremely down-to-earth.

Yang Ling used the captured Cao Changjing to look around, looking for a road leading to the riverside, and in the midst of the surging crowd, he saw a familiar figure and couldn't move it anymore.

Zhang Hongying was using her weak body to protect the wounded on the stretcher at the moment, and the people around her were pushing and cursing.

She was like a flat boat in the sea, which could capsize at any time, and her weak body gave birth to sympathy, which made Yang Ling feel a strong sense of responsibility, wanting to protect her and prevent her from being hurt in any way.

The retreat order issued by the commander of the garrison was extremely hasty, and the field hospital where Zhang Hongying was located was also evacuated in a hurry, but when they reached the street, the road was already blocked by the defeated troops and civilians......

There were still more than 300,000 residents and more than 100,000 troops in the entire city of Nanjing, and they were all pouring into Xiaguan at this moment, and their personal strength seemed so weak and powerless in the flow of thousands of people, Zhang Hongying and they were scattered.

Yang Ling hurriedly descended the wall and forcibly squeezed to the place where Zhang Hongying was with the brothers from the guerrilla battalion.

Zhang Hongying has been so busy these days that her feet don't touch the ground in order to rescue the wounded soldiers, and she hasn't closed her eyes for several days.

A strong rout rushed over, instantly overwhelming dozens of their medical staff and wounded soldiers.

"it! Get out of the way! Get out of the way! "These routed soldiers who wanted to flee for their lives were fierce when they fought the Japanese soldiers, and they were not merciless when they beat their own people.

The butts of their guns continued to smash and slam at the people blocking their way, causing many heads to bleed and knock them to the ground.

Before those who had fallen to the ground could get up, they were swept by the crowd behind them, trampling alive, and people were fleeing for their lives by the corpses.

Zhang Hongying protected the wounded soldiers to the death, but she blocked the way for the group of routs to escape, although he was a woman, but these routs could take care of these, and the evil side of human nature was vividly displayed at the moment, and the butt of the gun was also waved towards Zhang Hongying.

Such a rout with a full face was about to smash the butt of the gun into Zhang Hongying's body, and suddenly he was pushed to the side, and the butt of the gun grazed Zhang Hongying's head and fell into the air, and it hit another person, and someone let out a scream.

"Who the hell pushes Lao Tzu!" Such a rout soldier stumbled and almost fell to the ground, once he fell, he would definitely be trampled into flesh, he shouted back angrily.

"Bang!" Before his words fell, Yang Ling had already slapped him in the face, making him stunned.

Feeling the burning pain on his face, the rout soldier saw clearly that it was Yang Ling who hit him, and he immediately became angry.

"You dare to beat Lao Tzu!"

"You dare to shout again, believe it or not, Lao Tzu killed you!" The king's beard stepped forward, and the muzzle of the black hole was already pressed against the chin of the rout.

The dozens of people who followed the rout saw that their heads were pointed at guns, and they all raised their guns in unison, but Liu Yidao and they did not show weakness, and hundreds of guns were raised.

Liu Yidao raised his head and pointed at this group of routs who fled for their lives and shouted: "Beat the Japanese!" It's quite majestic to bully your own people! It's like going back to fight the Japanese! You cowards! Soft eggs! ”

Liu Yidao's words pierced his heart, and as soon as these words came out, these defeated soldiers suddenly felt weak in their hearts, and their momentum weakened.

"Which of your troops!? Who allowed you to beat the common people like this! Yang Ling also asked with a straight face.

These defeated soldiers bowed their heads and didn't speak, after all, they still had a sense of honor in their hearts.

Seeing that they were silent and silent, Yang Ling warned the commander of the defeated company in the lead: "Next time, don't let Lao Tzu see you bullying the people again, otherwise it won't be as simple as a slap!"

Although the commander of the defeated company was on fire in his heart, but Yang Ling, the lieutenant colonel and battalion commander, was here, he didn't dare to be presumptuous, apologized in a low voice, turned around and beckoned: "Let's go!"

But Liu Yidao and they didn't have Yang Ling's order, they surrounded them to death, and they were allowed to go.

Yang Ling didn't want to pursue it, everyone in this chaos wanted to flee for their lives, these people had also fought bloody battles against devils, the fault was not them, the fault was those chiefs who were greedy for life and afraid of death, he didn't embarrass them and waved them away.

Zhang Hongying was rescued by Yang Ling and them, she knew that if Yang Ling didn't make a timely move, she was afraid that she would be knocked to the ground, and then this life would be gone, and she was full of gratitude to Yang Ling.

"Battalion Commander Yang, thank you."

Zhang Hongying became even more haggard, and the cotton military uniform on her body was also bloodstained, which made Yang Ling feel distressed.

"Say thank you for raising your hand," Yang Ling asked, "Why are you only evacuating now?"

Zhang Hongying sighed and said: "We were ready to evacuate when we received the order, but there were too many wounded......

After Yang Ling briefly understood the situation, he said, "Since you have been scattered, come with us."

Yang Ling's words were undeniable, Zhang Hongying saw Yang Ling's resolute face, and felt extremely down-to-earth in her heart, she blushed and nodded, which was considered to agree with Yang Ling's suggestion.

"Liu Yidao, the road is impassable, let's go through the alley over there." Yang Ling immediately ordered the troops to bypass the main road and take the small road to rush to Xiaguan.
