Chapter Ninety-Two: The Wounded City

There were several machine guns in front of the Rujiang Gate, and a major of the National Army was standing behind the sandbag bunker with a blank face. "Open the gates and let these refugees out." Lu Yuan, who also had a cold face, walked up to the major of the national army and said to the other party calmly.

"You're old, get out of the way." The major of the national army seemed to be hooked by Tang Cheng's words, and immediately pulled out the pistol on his waist, and then waved the gun in his hand at Lu Yuan and the refugees behind Lu Yuan, and shouted sharply, "The order from above, no one is allowed to leave the city, and those who violate the order will be killed." ”

"Whoa" The soldiers who followed Lu Yuan pulled the bolt of their guns and pointed their guns at the soldiers of the national army behind the bunker. "Do you want to die if you dare to talk to our chief like this?" Huang Haishan, who also drew a gun in his hand, threatened viciously.

"The order from above? Who ordered it? Song Xilian or Tang Shengzhi? Lu Yuan motioned to Huang Haishan and the deep soldiers to put down their guns first, and then asked a series of questions to the major of the national army with a calm face.

"I don't care where you come from, I can't pass if I say I can't pass." In the face of Lu Yuan's questioning, the major of the national army said stiffly.

"Don't believe his words, just give them a gold bar, and they will let it go, we can't get the gold bar, so they stopped us." The conversation between Tang Cheng and the major of the Naguo Army made the surrounding refugees anxious, and finally some of the refugees mixed in the crowd and shouted loudly.

Lu Yuan smiled slightly, and then looked at the annoyed and angry major of the national army, "Is that so?" ”

"Yes and what? The brothers are desperately defending the city here, and there is something wrong with ordering something. The major continued to quibble.

"You don't care about this on weekdays, there are still hundreds of thousands of refugees in Nanjing, and you are sending them to the Japanese to be killed, so you don't care about the lives of these hundreds of thousands of people for a little selfish gain?" Lu Yuan, who had always been calm, suddenly shouted angrily to the other party.

"I didn't recruit the Japanese, so what does that have to do with me. Anyway, the gate just won't be opened. ”

"Is it really not open?" Lu Yuan sighed softly, and a gunshot rang out, and the major of the national army was shot in the head and fell backwards on his back. Lu Yuan raised the gun in his hand and asked the others behind the sandbag fortifications, "Who else doesn't open the city gate?" Who else? Stand up. There was another burst of gunshots, and a few soldiers of the national army who wanted to secretly take guns behind the sandbag fortifications were shot down by Huang Haishan, and the scene was quiet, and Lu Yuan took the opportunity to immediately arrange for someone to move the sandbags blocking the city gate.

Huang Haishan came over at this time and whispered to Lu Yuan, "Sir, there are a lot of defeated soldiers here, I see that there are thousands of people, are we pulling some soldiers into the city to fight street battles?" ”

Lu Yuan nodded, and then stood on the sandbag with the help of Huang Haishan, looking at the crowd in front of him, Lu Yuan shouted sharply, "Some of you are soldiers, that bastard of Tang Shengzhi deceived you, he ran away, he left you and ran away." But this country, this city has never abandoned us, and she is still watching us fight, watching us fight against the invaders in order to defend her. Listen to the gunshots coming from the city, where our brothers are still fighting. Look at the people around you, the brothers in the city are fighting for them, because they are our relatives. It's our brothers and sisters, our parents, our wives and our children. ”

"Didn't you withdraw here then? Aren't you going to run too? A voice in the crowd shouted.

"My brothers and I didn't come here to run away." Lu Yuan pointed at the people who were about to flee and shouted, "The Japanese army is about to break the city, we have to get more people out of here, it is less than 2 hours before dark, and it will be safer to cross the river after dark." I have 4 foreign boats on the river. My brothers and I will stay in the city so that the refugees can leave Nanking, and we will stay in the city until they cross the river, and that is what we are here for. ”

Lu Yuan is actually not good at speaking, and his life as a civil servant after being discharged from the army in his previous life made him a silent person, but now, he must speak. "Nanjing is our national capital, and we have more than 100,000 soldiers. There are only tens of thousands of devils. As long as everyone dares to fight with the devil and dare to hold a heart to the death, we can beat the little devil out of Nanjing. Lu Yuan made this call against his will, he really didn't know what to say.

You don't see, the end of the Han army, the weak crown is the captive, please Changying,

You don't see, Ban Dingyuan, the peerless light cavalry urges the battle clouds!

The boy should be in serious danger, how can he let the Confucian crown miss this life?

The situation is that the country is in danger, and the feather is constantly fighting!

Abandon my old pen, and write my wartime,

More than 100,000 comrades sang war songs and joined the army.

Qi joined the army, cleaned the dust, and swore to sweep away the Japanese slaves!

endurance and lightness of homesickness, generously hold out the heart of serving the country.

Went to the battlefield with a smile, and the banner was dark,

The air blows too white into the moon, and the long arrow is pulled to shoot the wolf.

Quarrying a load of Jinling, Jiluji Hei Ci Ping,

The ship-breaking building went out of the Liaohai, and the iron bird pounced on Tokyo!

One night smashed the cave of the Japanese slaves, and the waters of the Pacific Ocean were red,

The Han flag is raised at the top of Mount Fuji, and the concubines are drunk under the cherry blossom trees.

Returning to the middle of the road to see 10,000 people, before the flowers and horses,

The lintel is full of white hair, and the Lu is jubilant and arrogant.

The first merit of the national history is clear, and China has been known for its longevity since then.

There is still a remnant of power to punish injustice, so that the human race around the world will be bathed in the great Han style.

At first, only Huang Haishan was singing alone, and later more and more soldiers sang it. Their voices were so bleak, some of them sang out of tune, but no one laughed at them. At this moment, these defeated soldiers, who were already numb and even dead, as if they were being reviewed, raised their heads high, and their souls returned.

Huang Haishan held a microphone made of paper shells with a very eye-catching eye, rushed to the sandbag, raised his right hand, and shouted at the crowd in front of him, "Fight back, fight back, Tang Shengzhi has run away, and we still have a Chief Lu here." We also have a Commander Lu who can accompany our defeated soldiers to fight to the death here, let Commander Lu take us back..."

Yes, it is those officials who are greedy for life and afraid of death who abandon them, not the country, not their people, they are soldiers, and they are soldiers of the country who have the responsibility to defend the land. The Chinese are the most enthusiastic, and as long as someone climbs high and wakes the flag, countless people will follow. We still have a Tang Chief, and he's still here, and he's still here to fight to the death with us.

Huang Haishan held a military flag of the National Revolutionary Army and handed it to Lu Yuan, who pulled out the short knife at his waist in front of the crowd, cut a hole in his hand and smeared the blood on the flag. "The blood flag does not fall, Nanjing will last forever" There was jubilation under the Rujiang Gate, and many of the national army routs in the crowd shouted loudly "The blood flag does not fall, Nanjing will live forever" "The blood flag does not fall, Nanjing will last forever" "There are still so many people behind us looking at us, brothers, fight back, if you want to die, you will die in this Nanjing city!" The routs suddenly perked up, turned and fought back at the positions they had held.

"You say, let's do this, is it really good?" Looking at the routs of the national army in front of him who turned around and rushed into the city one after another, Lu Yuan's eyes were full of moisture, and then he looked at Huang Haishan standing beside him, and he was already crying. Huang Haishan had no way to answer Lu Yuan's inquiry, but nodded fiercely at Lu Yuan, fighting is always going to die, and dying in this Nanjing city is more enjoyable than being a deserter and living the rest of his life.

In the city of Nanjing, which was about to usher in night, there were all the soldiers of the national army shouting loudly, and the weapons and ammunition they had carried out from the holes in the ground were distributed one by one, while more people did not receive weapons and ammunition at all. But it doesn't matter, in many streets of Nanjing, there are still many weapons and ammunition that have been discarded by the routs as they retreated.

After the soldiers of the 36th Division took the initiative to evacuate, Lu Yuan casually pointed out 200 soldiers who had evacuated here to defend the city gate. At this moment, they are no longer the rout of the national army who cowardly threw down their guns, they are a group of Chinese soldiers who do not want to die. Lu Yuan also selected a large number of machine gunners and piloting soldiers from the rout, and asked them to go to the city to collect all the vehicles that could be used, and send the refugees who needed to be evacuated in the city to the Shimonoseki wharf.

The rest of the rout was divided into a team of 50 people by Lu Yuan, and asked them to block the Japanese troops entering the city within the set range in the city, and notified the nearby residents to evacuate. After arranging all these things in Rujiangmen, Lu Yuan and the others drove to the Liangchu refugee camp in the city, "The Japanese are about to break the city, maybe under your protection, they can indeed protect a lot of people, but if you have soldiers here, it will bring danger to the refugee camp." I took the servicemen with me, and the camp might be safe. If you don't want to see rape and killing happen every day, young women have to leave with us, and children are the hope of the country, and I will take them with me. ”

After some negotiations, Lu Yuan finally persuaded all the foreign directors in the Xiaofenqiao Safety Zone with great difficulty before it was completely dark, that he had come with a gun, and that he would take away all the soldiers, children, young people, and women in the refugee camp. In this way, half an hour after dark, Lu Yuan and others took nearly 150,000 people from the two safety zones in the city, and finally left 70,000 old, weak, sick and disabled people in the safety zone, so that the pressure on the safety zone would be much less, and more refugees who had not had time to evacuate could be accepted.

"Lao Huang, is it too cruel for me to do this? If they had been hiding in the refugee camp, they might not have died, and everyone had the right to live. Lu Yuan looked at the soldiers leaving the safe zone with a lonely expression, and sighed secretly in his heart. Maybe they'll come back alive, but who knows how many of them will survive. Lu Yuan sat in the car to evacuate the security zone and secretly vowed that I would never be born in exchange for the Japanese to go to hell, if God didn't help me, then I would kill them with my own hands and go to hell.
