Chapter Ninety-Six: Choose, Stay! (First order on the shelves!) )

PS: It's on the shelves, ask for the first order, monthly pass, thank you!

After dark, the Japanese army stormed the Purple Mountain, dropping a large number of incendiary bombs, and the entire Purple Mountain was burning, almost turning into a mountain of flames, and the air was filled with a choking smell.

The area around Yuhuatai, Zhonghua Gate, and Tongji Gate are all fires, and the city of Nanjing is also in chaos, and the crowds of refugees are crowded, and there are several roads leading to Rujiang Gate and Xiaguan.

For those who are alive, in this cold winter, the people of Nanjing experienced a night that they will never forget.

The defenders are still resisting, and even if they retreat, they must leave a part of the army to block the enemy, otherwise it will not be a retreat, but a great rout.

"Have you brought back all the wounded?"

"I picked it up, and a few seriously injured people didn't survive and have already left." Zhu Yaming, the commander of the second battalion, has just returned from the First Military Hospital, and the hospital is also preparing to evacuate.

At this juncture, except for the 2nd Regiment, which had already sent people to pick up the wounded soldiers, the other troops almost did not send people to pick them up at all.

Inside and outside the First Army Hospital, thousands of wounded soldiers could only be transferred with the hospital, and no one knows how many of them survived.

"Where's Xie Tuanza?"

"The doctor said that he was picked up this morning, as if he was from the 87th Division."

It seems that Cheng Yiding has not forgotten his promise to himself.

"Old Leng, now in this situation, why don't we take Xie Tuanzuo over?" Luo Yufeng proposed, after all, it might be safer to follow them.

"No, we are breaking through head-on, the danger is greater, and the regimental seat is burned. Not a gunshot wound. We don't have medicine. The regimental seat follows us, it is better to let him follow the 87th Division. Leng Feng shook his head.

"Lao Leng is right, the regimental seat is not lightly injured, and it is safer to follow the headquarters of the 87th Division than to follow us." Qin Yankun was also inclined to Leng Feng's opinion.

"What about Peng Chao?"

Peng Chao took it back, and the doctor operated on him, but the high fever did not go away, and the person woke up after a while. Unconscious for a while. ”

"Use a cold towel to cool him down, he must not burn his brain, is the fever medicine used?" Leng Feng gave an urgent order.

"I used it, and I increased the dose, and the doctor said it was a wound infection, and if there were no antibiotics, he probably wouldn't have survived!"

"No medicine?"

"There is a shortage of medicines, especially for gunshot infections."

"Is there a pharmacy?"

"Even if there were, I am afraid that I would not be able to buy it now, and now the pharmacies on the street are either closed. Either the bosses are gone. ”

"Looking, going from house to house. Be sure to find me the medicine. Leng Feng said, "This is not just about Peng Chao's life, we all may need it, extraordinary means in extraordinary times!" ”

"Understood!"

"Old Leng, don't worry, Peng Chao will be fine." Luo Yufeng comforted, Peng Chao is a member of the Yaksha Action Group, and he has made a lot of contributions, and it is normal for Leng Feng to be particularly attentive.

Under the chairmanship of Leng Feng, the Second Regiment of the Teaching Corps held a temporary military meeting, and officers above the platoon level attended as observers.

"The third battalion is still at Zhonghua Gate?"

"Now send someone to inform the third battalion and ask them to return to the camp immediately." Leng Feng ordered.

"The fight over there at Zhonghua Gate is fierce, withdraw at this time, I'm afraid it's ......" Qin Yankun hesitated.

"Before ten o'clock at the latest, the third battalion must be rebuilt, and in addition, we will begin to solicit candidates who remain to block the Japanese army and prepare for street fighting, and the selection conditions are, first, Nanjing natives, second, not the only son in the family, and third, those with combat experience are preferred!" Leng Feng calmly ordered.

"Do you have to meet all three conditions?"

"No, two conditions can be met, special circumstances, one can be satisfied, and it is mainly voluntary!" Leng Feng explained.

"That's going to be easy."

"Cheng Gang, how many people are left in the first battalion?" Leng Feng asked.

"There are two hundred and seventeen men left in the battalion." Cheng Gang said.

"What about the second battalion?"

"There are only one hundred and thirty-six people left in the second battalion...... Zhu Yaming, the commander of the second battalion, his face was gloomy, and of the three main infantry battalions, the second battalion was probably the biggest loss.

"Artillery battalion?"

"One hundred and twenty-four people in the artillery battalion!"

"Thirty-four people in the communication company!"

"Eighty-seven people in the transport company!"

"One hundred and eighty-four men in the engineer battalion!"

"There are six members of the regimental health team and twenty-seven people in the stretcher platoon!"

"Heavy machine gun company ...... seventy-four people"

"The whole regiment has not yet been rebuilt, except for the three battalions, plus the regimental headquarters guard platoon of 27 people, a total of 920 people, if you count the wounded, the whole regiment now has more than 1,300 people."

"By the way, I forgot to include the Yaksha Special Operations Group?" The combat staff officer scratched his head embarrassedly.

"It's okay, just know the approximate number." Leng Feng did not criticize harshly, at this time, everyone's mood was not good, and criticism would affect morale.

"Everyone go back and make it clear to the brothers that staying may die for life, this time I don't force everyone, if you are willing to stay, we will live and die together, if you don't want to, I won't force you, the soldiers are expensive, not more." Leng Feng said solemnly.

"Although Lao Leng has only been the commander of our regiment for a period of time, his ability is obvious to everyone, staying to block and fighting street battles is not only his personal idea, but also the need of the peak, so many troops want to break through and withdraw from Nanjing City, someone must stay and sacrifice, so I hope that after you go back, think about it and do the ideological work of the brothers!" Qin Yankun said solemnly.

"I know, at this time, it is very difficult for everyone to choose to stay, to be honest, I Luo Crazy wants to stay, fight side by side with Lao Leng, but Lao Leng disagrees, he said a bunch of reasons, also for the sake of the second regiment, I can only promise to take you to break through, this is my responsibility, but I hope that some of you who are eligible to stay, this is also the responsibility of a soldier!" Luo Yufeng's eyes were red.

There was a dull meeting.

"Dai Tuanza, doesn't staying let us die?"

"Yes, we won't do it!"

"Why should we stop the other troops?"

……

"Staying is not the same as dying. If you don't have the courage to fight the Japanese. You can choose to break out or retreat. Leng Feng said calmly. His time in the Second Regiment was still short, and even if he established some prestige, he would still have other choices at the moment of life and death.

He doesn't blame these people, after all, there is only one life, and no one really is not afraid of death at all.

"Cold Camp Seat ......"

"It's Leng Tuanzuo, although Leng Feng has been demoted, he is now our Tuanzuo!" Luo Yufeng unceremoniously reprimanded the platoon commander who stood up and spoke.

"Yes. Leng Tuanzuo, we are not afraid of death, but it is valuable to die, and if we stay, we can't stop the Japanese army from entering the city at all, what's the point? ”

"Good question, I can answer this question, I won't tell you the truth, I'll settle an account with you, how many years does it take for a person to become a qualified soldier from birth?"

"At least ten or twenty years, right?"

"Then I'll kill a Japanese soldier now. So are they one less? ”

"Yes, but won't they continue to recruit soldiers?" Someone retorted.

"Soldiers are first and foremost people. They can indeed recruit soldiers, but people can't grow up immediately, if we can consume the living force of the Japanese army, the more they kill, the fewer and fewer qualified soldiers they have, and in the end, they will have no population that can be recruited as soldiers, even if we take three people for him, fight to the end, we still have people, what about them? ”

"We have 40,000 people, and Japan, at most, is only a quarter of us, three for one, then, we have at least 10,000 people alive, China will not die, and Japan will be completely wiped off the face of the earth, and it will never exist!"

"The purpose of my stay, first, is to stop the Japanese army, so that the brother troops can gain time to retreat, and second, to fight a street battle with the Japanese army, using the city we are familiar with as a battlefield and turning it into a place of death for the Japanese army."

"I'll stay with this, welcome, if you don't follow, I won't force it, everyone chooses for themselves." Leng Feng said with a glance around.

"!"

"I'll do it too!"

"Why don't you do it, the big deal is death, and after eighteen years, you will be a good man again!"

Cheng Gang, Liu Guichun, Shang Xiaoying, Huang Yi......

The faces of the familiar youth became clear, and Leng Feng felt a little relieved.

Tick Bell Bell ......

The telephone on the table rang suddenly, at this time, the wired communication in the city had long been cut off, and even the garrison commander's headquarters might not be able to contact the troops below, and the water and electricity in the south of the city had already been cut off.

And this phone rang suddenly, it must have been a call from the position, but the sound of guns and artillery on the position was not dense.

That's just ......

Leng Feng quickly picked up the phone and put it to his ear: "I'm Leng Feng, speak!" ”

"Head, there's movement in the secret passage, come quickly!" Wang Bin's hurried voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Okay, keep an eye on me, I'll be there soon!" Leng Feng hung up the phone, stood up and ordered, "The night inspection operation team, the regimental headquarters guard platoon, and a battalion will follow me!" ”

"Lao Leng, is it over there in the secret passage?"

"Yes, the Japanese army finally can't hold it anymore, and our plan can begin!" Leng Feng nodded.

"Great!" Luo Yufeng's eyes lit up and he said excitedly.

"You go on, I'll come when I go!" Leng Feng grabbed the steel helmet, tied up the armed belt, picked up a flower trap, and beckoned Wu Xiaoyun and Cheng Gang to go out together.

"Everyone's here?"

Wu Xiaoyun nodded, although it was only one day, the seventeen people who were temporarily recruited made Wu Xiaoyun look like a soldier.

Of course, many of them are military or police officers, which will accelerate their growth to some extent.

"Ready to go!"

"Report to Chief Leng!"

"Speak!"

"What are we going to do here, and if it's going to fight, I ask for a weapon to be given to us!" Xie Zaoshi, the deputy leader of the third squad, asked loudly.

"You didn't give them weapons?" Leng Feng looked at it, and these people were really unarmed.

Wu Xiaoyun nodded, some of them were still death row prisoners yesterday, and this recruitment may be a chance for them to regain their freedom, so they need to be guarded against.

So before these people didn't get their hearts on the Yaksha Action Group, Wu Xiaoyun didn't distribute weapons, and since they weren't allocated, then everyone didn't distribute them, which is also a kind of fairness.

"Each person is issued a Type 38 rifle and a southern self-defense pistol, and the ammunition is a base number!" Leng Feng ordered.

"Yes!"

"Originally, you were not qualified to issue weapons now, but now it is extraordinary, so I will issue you weapons and act for a while, and you must follow the command, otherwise, I don't mind kicking some of you out!" Leng Feng's gaze swept coldly over everyone, "Meaning, you know." ”

"You are all smart people, I won't say much if you say anything superfluous, the next action, Deputy Captain Wu will take you, receive weapons and ammunition, and then set off!"

Leng Feng led a battalion to the inspection station first. (To be continued......)
