War of Resistance

Chapter 218 Howling?

To be honest, not only Zhang Tianhai was taken aback by the common people jumping on the feet of the group seat, but even the officers and soldiers of the special agent company around Zhang Tianhai were also taken aback. They immediately stopped and took off the guns on their backs , aimed at Ma San.

After all, it’s already this time, and it’s still quite possible that traitors or secret agents commit suicide attacks, so we have to be cautious.

Seeing this scene next to him, Zhang Tianhai hurriedly shouted: "What are you all doing? Put down your guns! Except for the officers and soldiers of the secret service company, the others continue to move forward and wait for me in front of Yijiang Gate!"

"Old Zhang, what's the matter?" Guo Qiliang, who was also wearing a wool coat, followed up and asked.

I saw Zhang Tianhai patted Guo Qiliang on the shoulder and said: "Brother, do you believe me? If you believe me, take the troops to Yijiangmen to communicate with Ouyang Battalion Commander who is stationed there. I will deal with these matters OK."

As he spoke, Zhang Tianhai also nodded to Zheng Man beside him, signaling her to hurry up and follow the pace of the troops.

"Okay, I'll wait for you at the front, without your commander's warrant, we really can't get through." Guo Qiliang nodded and said, he quickly ran to the front with the troops.

Apart from Liu Houming, Wei He, the commander of the spy company, stayed with Zhang Tianhai.

"Tuan Zuo... what should these common people do?" Liu Houming asked, looking at his appearance, he also seemed to have some compassion.

Zhang Tianhai touched the Browning pistol in his hand, and bit his lower lip lightly with his front teeth, as if he was making some important decision. After a long time, he finally said: "Fathers and elders, get up! If you can Trust me, after twelve o'clock, go through Yijiang Gate and go to the Heji Wharf in the direction of Xiaguan, I will wait for you there, but you must obey my orders when the time comes. Otherwise, the gods will not be able to save you!"

It was Ma San, an old bastard who had been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, who was more sober. He knew that the young regiment leader in front of him must have been moved with compassion, and only wanted to save them poor people, otherwise he would be an ace army Is the head of the big regiment guilty of trying to deceive these poor little people?

After Ma San heard Zhang Tianhai's words, he immediately let go of the latter's legs, hurriedly kowtowed his head a few times, bang-bang, raised his tear-stained face, Said: "Sir, if you can save the lives of my whole family, my poor life, Ma San, will be handed over to you in the future. If you are an ox or a horse, you will have nothing to repay..."

Regarding this, Zhang Tianhai's handsome face was still expressionless, and he just said calmly: "The lives of your family and everyone present are all saved by your own efforts. I can do my best. I can try my best to save everyone's lives, but the premise must be that you absolutely obey my orders. You can come to the Peace Wharf when the time comes. My name is Zhang Tianhai, and I am the head of the first regiment directly under the theater, but I still have military affairs. I hope everyone can understand and understand!"

After finishing speaking, Zhang Tianhai turned around and left without hesitation. He is not only a Chinese soldier, he is also the head of the Zhiyi Regiment, and he must be responsible for his Zhiyi Regiment too!

"Tuan Zuo, didn't we receive an order to leave Nanjing by ferry, and wait along the river on the other side of Pukou to meet the officers of the Minister's Department?" Liu Houming asked a little incomprehensibly, after all, in his opinion, the behavior of the leader Something is wrong, to deceive the common people, what is wrong?
"Don't ask if you shouldn't ask. If you are afraid, go across the river with the regiment headquarters and the troops of the first battalion, and wait for the regiment leader on the opposite river." Zhang Tianhai said angrily, who is he, how could he listen? Can't tell what Liu Houming said?
After hearing this sentence, Liu Houming couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. He had roughly guessed the true thoughts of the head of the group. What the head of the group said to the common people just now was probably true, not a lie, so he He responded with a voice: "Understand, no matter where the group's guns hit, the humble job will follow the group, go up the mountain of swords, and down into the sea of ​​fire!"

Liu Houming's remark was not to perfunctory Zhang Tianhai's words, but from the heart, such head Zhang is worthy of his desperate pursuit - what is an upright man, this is an indomitable man!

Soon, the vanguard of the Zhiyi Regiment arrived in front of the Yijiang Gate. Originally, the Yijiang Gate was already full of people who wanted to flee and the defeated soldiers who had been scattered from the front line. After the troops were fully loaded and wearing the cuffs of the Garrison Superintendent, they quickly gave way to a path.

"The troops in front, please stop advancing immediately!" The officers and soldiers of the [-]th Regiment stationed at Yijiangmen shouted. Although the troops in front of them also wore the same cuffs, they did not do so before receiving orders from their superiors. Will let it go.

After all, Song Xilian should have just returned to the division headquarters at this time, and needs to gather the heads of the regiments and brigades for a meeting to give the order to Chief Tang. After all, this is a confidential order. A little carelessness may cause the frontline troops to collapse immediately. Not to mention retreating, all the troops will be buried in Nanjing, and the remaining [-] to [-] troops will die in the city together with Nanjing!
Soon, the forward troops of the Zhiyi Regiment stopped advancing. They needed to wait for the arrival of the regimental commander and the chief of staff, and then negotiate to let them go. They were originally troops from the 36th Division, and it was absolutely impossible to do this Wait for something stupid.

"Wait a minute, don't you know that time is running out? Hurry up and wipe out these bastards from the 36th Division, so we can go out of the city together!" Someone shouted from the crowd of broken soldiers who let out the passage.

"That's right, these dogs are relying on the orders of the minister's department and won't let us go. You are so well equipped, if you don't let you go, you can just kill them!" Another voice came from the crowd of broken soldiers. .

Soon, the clamor of these defeated soldiers became one, almost all of them shouted and shouted, advocating to fight with the 36th Division troops stationed in Yijiangmen.

Of course, it has no effect other than attracting a group of glaring eyes.

"Here is the head of the regiment. Who dares to let our soldiers from the whole regiment go to the 36th Division?" Zhang Tianhai, who walked straight towards Yijiang Gate, looked at the crowd with wide eyes and said, and there was a sudden silence.

After finishing speaking, Zhang Tianhai walked towards the gatekeepers, still holding the release order issued by Tang Shengzhi in his hand.

"Where are your officers? I am Zhang Tianhai, the head of the First Regiment directly under the Third War Zone, and now I am going out of the city to perform a mission under the order of Chief Tang, please inform your chief to let me go immediately!" Zhang Tianhai didn't say much nonsense, Speak directly to the gatekeepers.

"Yes, I'm going to inform our officer, please wait a moment, officer!" said a sergeant, who seemed to be the squad leader.

Soon, Ouyang Wu, Zhang Tianhai's old friend, came out from the city gate. Although Ouyang Wu was familiar with Zhang Tianhai, the military situation was urgent at the moment, so he didn't talk nonsense, and said directly: "Commander Zhang, What about your order?"

Zhang Tianhai handed the order to Ouyang Wuhou, and said: "Battle Commander Ouyang, the military situation is urgent now, so we won't talk about the past for now. It is indeed an urgent order from Chief Tang, let us go as soon as possible!"

Ouyang Wu read the content of the order, and saw that the end of the paper was indeed the seal of the Garrison Commander's Department and Tang Shengzhi's signature, he immediately waved his hand, and the troops opened up quickly, just enough to allow four rows of people to pass quickly.

"Thank you, brother." Zhang Tianhai expressed his thanks with a military salute.

Ouyang Wu immediately returned a military salute, lowered his voice and asked: "Brother Yulin, may I ask if the higher-ups have already announced the retreat order? Your regiment is now a unit directly under the theater, and you must be better informed than us in ordinary field troops. people are faster."

Regarding Ouyang Wu's question, Zhang Tianhai didn't admit it, but he didn't deny it either. After all, it's not easy to say this kind of thing clearly, so he said in a low voice: "You should wait for the master to give you this order!"

Ouyang Wu is not a fool, wait for the teacher to order it himself?That's the truth...
