Chapter 395: Sudden Change

Xie Jinyuan was shocked by the mountains of bloody bullets and grenades, and the tragedy there could be imagined, and the blood had obviously soaked the land, which could be seen from everyone's muddy shoes.

Dong Ku was commonplace, waved his hand and ordered a platoon to quickly sort and clear the bullets, and the others entered the alert position.

It's actually very simple for him to do this, all the officers and soldiers of the country are already crumbling, and it's not easy to come back, and it's a little difficult to let them get guns in a short time.

Xie Jinyuan saw the situation of the soldiers, there was no expression on his face, and said loudly: "Everyone wash, rest for an hour, and then enter the shift." ”

The officers and soldiers shook one by one, no one was noisy, and began to wash the blood stains on their bodies. Today, they have seen what a battlefield is, what is killing, although the bitter gall of vomiting has come out, but everyone's spirit is extremely strong, they are no longer incapable of seeing blood, so far, they began to quietly transform, after a night's rest, I believe that they already have an iron-blooded foundation.

The Japanese army, after this massacre, after the gunfire stopped, although they dragged back hundreds of soldiers who had collapsed, it was better not to drag them back, most of them were already out of order, except for the roar of fear, they could not even hear the orders of their commanders, and they were completely frightened crazy.

The banks of the Suzhou Creek were jubilant at this time, from the beastly howls of the Japanese to the surprisingly quiet of the warehouse, no matter how stupid they were, the warriors of the warehouse once again retreated from the Japanese attack.

In the warehouse, Dong Ku did not participate in the cleaning of the bullets, he returned to the window, silently looked at the dark night sky, and thought about how to fight the arrival of Sun Tao's army through the repeated anti-inflammatory.

He is not a handsome talent, and commanding troops to fight is a difficult problem of great challenge for him. Sneak attack sneaked in, this one he held in his hand. Even if it is a war of annihilation, he can handle it easily. But this is an army of more than 100,000 people, which is different from holding on, which requires a deep strategy. Liu Chengcheng is an excellent candidate, but Liu Rongcheng controls the lifeblood of his rise and cannot leave the battlefield for the time being. It's up to him to do all this. And he, who is never willing to use blood to verify right and wrong, has worked hard to cultivate a team that is not low in quality in future generations, so how can he bear it?

Here, what he wanted to know most was whether the special forces tactics of later generations could use knives on hundreds of thousands of people, so he asked Sun Tao to abandon his baggage. The rapid march rushed to Shanghai. He doesn't need artillery to attack fortifications, his artillery is actually auxiliary, not the main force of war that countries rely on at the moment, in his case, it is more used for defense.

Just as he pondered, a voice suddenly shouted in Chinese in the distance, and the dull voice went without saying. Naturally, it's a horn made of iron sheets.

"What are you going to do, little devil?"

Dong Ku stood up and walked to Xie Jinyuan's side. Looking out of the river, listen intently to the shout.

I only heard a shout from afar: "Listen to the team in the warehouse, I am Lieutenant General Ito Masaki, now give you the last night, tomorrow morning when the sun rises, you will not surrender, I will avenge the death of the excellent soldiers of the Empire." Capture the warehouse at all costs, I will no longer care, I have only one goal, capture the four lines of warehouse, don't doubt my determination! ”

At all costs?

Dong Ku scoffed at this.

In the past two days, there have been more divisions thrown in. What else do you need at the price? Gas? Plane?

Xie Jinyuan also shook his head, he was not even in the mood to take care of it, turned around and left the window, preparing to arrange for the soldiers to take turns and change guards.

At this moment, the communication soldier hurriedly came to the second floor with a telegram, reported loudly, and handed the telegram to Xie Jinyuan.

"Retreat ......"

After reading the message, Xie Jinyuan exhaled a sigh of relief, and handed the message to Dong Ku.

Dong Ku took it and saw that it was Xie Jinyuan's telegram, which said that Xie Jinyuan's task had been completed and he could evacuate, and the direction of evacuation was the concession.

When Dong Ku saw the contents of the message, he had a headache. Now the Japanese army has not been dragged down, their own army has not been pressed, their attack on Nanjing has not been stopped, once this will be evacuated, then the previous efforts will be in vain, it is not good, can only pull out the banner of the advance army, and carry it alone.

Before he could finish his thoughts, the communications corps sent another message.

Xie Jinyuan took it and looked at it, even gloomy as if he wanted to drip, he handed the message to Dong Ku without saying a word.

This is Lao Chiang personally generating electricity, not the commander of the theater of operations.

Lao Jiang very earnestly praised Xie Jinyuan's merits, starting from him, everyone has been promoted one level, he has changed from the deputy head of the major to the lieutenant colonel, and everyone else has also been promoted to one level to encourage. But the conversation immediately changed and told Xie Jinyuan that the Japanese were annoyed and angry, and had already told the concession that they would use all means, even if they used large-caliber heavy artillery, to take the warehouse. And the concession naturally can't let them do this, such a close distance, not to mention what it will be like if the shells fly out of the target and fall into the concession, the shock wave of the violent explosion alone will cause losses to the blocking, so negotiate with the political axe to withdraw the team here, they will provide protection, otherwise, they will not only stop aiding, but also increase troops to the concession to prevent the Japanese attack.

The United States and France made the same reaction, the artillery bombardment of the concession is a declaration of war, then in order to maintain the dignity of their respective countries, they will go to war, and if the Xie Jinyuan department of the warehouse is evacuated, these will be invisible, they jointly declare that once the Xie Jinyuan department enters the concession, it will be protected by them and will never fall into the hands of the Japanese.

When Dong Ku saw this, a sense of helplessness rose in his heart. Although Britain and the United States and other countries are threats, Dong Ku knows very well that a Shanghai Concession, how can the Tianjin Concession satisfy their appetite? Once they have enough excuses, they will really treat this place as a battlefield, although it may not be a fight to the death, but it is not so easy for the troops to come and withdraw.

And now it is particularly difficult for him to deal with Soviet Russia and Japan, how can he provoke other countries? If they increase their troops here, I am afraid that Shanghai will really become the focus of chaos at that time, and then spread more widely, so that the minerals coveted by the great powers will become battlefields, and they will be taken by force at the end. If that's the case, he is powerless to resist, and the old Jiang Zhengaxe is even more useless, and as for the Soviet area, he is not capable.

Dong Ku pondered what changes would happen to this matter, how should he deal with it, whether to let Xie Jinyuan evacuate according to the order, stick to it independently, put it aside first and continue to hold on, or ......

Before he could finish his thoughts, the message came again.

Dong Ku took it and saw that it was actually the British ambassador, and the content was very tough, and if he did not withdraw from the Sixing warehouse, the British army would launch an attack from the back to end this war that affected the life of the concession.

"Nyima!"

Dong Ku scolded secretly.

If the British really did this, it would be really difficult to get it, and it would be difficult to hold on to the enemy.

"That's not right! How did the British have your military code? ”

After Dong Ku finished scolding, he suddenly remembered that this was not a plain code message, but a coded message, otherwise, the British would not dare to risk being told by various countries, and openly said that they would attack the warehouse from behind.

"You're right, this is the password for me to contact Shangfeng, not a plain-code message."

Xie Jinyuan sighed and said.

So Lao Jiang has already ventilated with the British......

"General Xie, this means that you can no longer keep up with Shangfeng, once you end the mission here, the password you hold will be changed, that is to say, ......"

"It seems that this is the case, the British have my password, and the Chief's Department will quickly change it and replace it with a new password, and before, there was no spare password for me, which shows that this telegram exchange is probably the most difficult to contact Shangfeng."

Xie Jinyuan's tone was full of anger about being abandoned helplessly, but he didn't explode and said quietly.

Dong Ku didn't think about these things, he knew that his task was to drag down the Japanese army, as long as the Japanese army returned to the division, or stopped, then, Sun Tao's army pressed the border, and the Japanese army would have no energy to attack Nanjing.

Taking a deep breath, Dong Ku found that this problem was really difficult to solve. It doesn't matter whether Britain and the United States intervene or not, as long as they increase their troops, then they will take over one by one, and the shame of the Eight-Nation Coalition will be repeated, and they will not really fight the Japanese army because of the shelling of the concession, but if Lao Chiang does not withdraw his troops, they will have an excuse to put the responsibility for this matter on Lao Chiang, and then exchange for benefits.

For now, he still needs time, and if Germany starts a war, Britain and the United States have no time to take care of anything else, and they can ignore the threat of Britain and the United States, but at present, Lao Xi has no intention of launching a war, and he wants to fight against several countries alone, which is undoubtedly a fool's dream.

Is there only one way to retreat? What about Nanjing? Just give up the movement that you worked so hard to make?

Dong Ku had a splitting headache, he rubbed his temples, thinking hard, and couldn't think of a better way to pay it back.

This unfortunate rain has lasted too long, or it wouldn't have been what it is. But if you stand up, it will really evolve into the Japanese army, the American army, and the British army, and the law will also intervene, and in the end, the situation will be chaotic again, out of control, and if you can't get your nest out of control, you will be attacked by various countries before it develops. Now, I don't have the ability to fight them.

"General Xie, I'm afraid you really have to retreat for now, the deadline given by the Japanese is dawn, you see, the gunboats on the Suzhou Creek are a thousand meters apart, not close to the bridge, it seems that the Japanese side has also reached some kind of agreement with the concession, in this case, it is no longer meaningful to hold on."

"I know the way, but your plan ......"

Dong Ku glanced at Xie Jinyuan, and knew that as long as he said a word, he would choose to disobey and hold on for a few more days before retreating, but he really couldn't hold on.

"General Xie, it is meaningless for Fairy Ah to hold on, now we are all weak, those powers cannot compete with them for the time being, once there is a change, the consequences are difficult to predict, so, I will find another way to complete my goal, you follow the order, enter the concession before dawn."
