Agents of the Republic of China

Lin Xiaotang helped He Chong re-bandage the wound. During this period, the old man named Yungong kept looking at the two of them, and the black-haired mixed race seemed to have a particularly strong interest in the two of them, and his eyes were always on Lin Xiaotang and He Chong. Glance around.

From He Chong's mouth, I learned that these five men in black military uniforms belonged to the legendary 13th Gendarmerie Regiment. The entire army is equipped with German-style uniforms, including Belgian-made fn bar machine guns and Czech-made zh) semi-automatic rifles. All officers and soldiers are equipped with German-made Mauser c96 shell pistols.It can be said that they are the elite among the elite of the Communist Party, but because they are responsible for guarding the leaders of the national government, they rarely appear in the public eye.

After listening to He Chong's introduction, Lin Xiaotang secretly noticed that several soldiers from the chairman's guard suddenly appeared here. It seems that the old man named Yungong and the two foreigners should have some connections.

Seeing that Lin Xiaotang and He Chong were still wearing the nondescript Japanese military uniforms, the leader of several military policemen took out two casual clothes from his backpack, handed them to Lin Xiaotang and introduced himself, he is the 13rd of the 63th Military Police Regiment. The platoon leader of the company, surnamed Shen, was temporarily trapped here because he was ordered to protect the dignitaries and failed to withdraw from Nanjing in time.

Lin Xiaotang had seen Platoon Leader Shen's ID, and smiled helplessly. At this moment, trying to escape from Nanjing here is tantamount to nonsense.He had no choice but to tell Plato Leader Shen that the army is still standing in the area of ​​Yijiangmen, and Xiao Shanling, the deputy commander of the gendarmerie, is directing the military and civilians to retreat at the pier. If they can retreat there, there may be a turning point.

Plato Leader Shen's eyes lit up. It was clear that this news was undoubtedly a bright light for them who were looking for it in the dark.Yun Gong and these two foreigners in front of him must not make any mistakes in his own hands. It is better to withdraw to Yijiangmen Wharf. If he can take a smooth sailing boat and return to Jiangbei, then he and his subordinates will make a great contribution file.

Platoon Leader Shen looked at Yungong, his eyes showed the meaning of consulting, Yungong nodded silently.Platoon Leader Shen immediately ordered several subordinates to start sorting out ammunition, and at the same time distributed dry food to everyone in preparation for departure.

While eating, Platoon Leader Shen curiously asked Lin Xiaotang and He Chong why they came here. He Chong immediately opened up the chatter box and talked about the whole story. Lin Xiaotang wanted to interrupt, but Reluctantly, I couldn't get in my mouth at all.To be honest, with his character, he doesn't want to show any publicity, especially now that there are three people of unknown origin sitting beside him, Lin Xiaotang doesn't want to draw the attention of strangers because of what He Chong said.

He Chong's narration was very contagious, and soon attracted everyone's attention to him. Mr. Yun was slowly drinking water from a water bottle, but his demeanor was listening attentively, while the gendarmes were expressing their joy , the black-haired mixed race simply moved to Lin Xiaotang's side.

The black-haired mixed-race grinned and stretched out his hand to Lin Xiaotang, which immediately made Lin Xiaotang feel like he was being watched by a big bad wolf, "Mr. Lin, I always thought you were an excellent soldier, but unexpectedly, you turned out to be a top student at Nanjing University !"

The black-haired mixed-race Chinese is very standard, but for no reason, Yun Gong, who is sitting in the middle, frowned slightly.

Lin Xiaotang didn't know the origin of the black-haired mixed race, so he shook hands politely

There were no substantive problems in the words of the black-haired mixed-race, they just kept complimenting Lin Xiaotang and He Chong, and expressed their admiration for their heroic actions.Then he told Lin Xiaotang that his name is Hong Chawei, he is a Chinese-American, and he is currently working at the US Embassy in Nanjing. He hopes to find an opportunity to have further exchanges with Lin Xiaotang.

After finishing eating quickly, Platoon Leader Shen looked at his watch and signaled to everyone that the time was almost up, so he set off immediately.

Coming out of the cellar, the biting cold wind hit Lin Xiaotang, making Lin Xiaotang shiver, the surroundings were still pitch black, but the snow had stopped, but since the snow was not heavy, the ground was not much except for a bit of mud snow.

Platoon Leader Shen used the compass in his hand to check the direction, and together with four subordinates, he tightly protected Yun Gong and the two Americans in the middle of the line, while Lin Xiaotang and He Chong walked at the end of the line. After applying medicine and bandaging, he was able to walk alone with a limp. The wound on Lin Xiaotang's shoulder was also bandaged neatly. Although his left arm could not be lifted, his right hand was intact. The shell pistol that had just been handed over to him was an authentic German product.

It was more than three o'clock in the morning, and everyone lined up in a straight line, walking cautiously on the ruins. Except for the occasional sound from their feet, the surroundings were silent. The sound of guns, explosions, barking of wolf dogs, etc. They were all far away from the battlefield, and the thin mist did not know when it would appear, and it seemed that there was a tendency to thicken further.

After walking for about an hour, Lin Xiaotang looked around, his sight was blurred by the thick fog, but Lin Xiaotang could recognize that this was a school about three miles away from the blockade position of Yijiangmen. You Laoquan passed by here when he set out.

Lin Xiaotang caught up a few steps, and quietly told the platoon leader Shen who was exploring the way at the front of the line. The platoon leader Shen turned his head to look at Yun Gong and the two foreigners, and found that they were exhausted, so he ordered to go to a roadside Rest for 10 minutes in the lee of the hillside before starting.

One of Platoon Leader Shen's subordinates supported Yun Gong to sit down on the side of the road. The black-haired mixed-race Hong Chawei seemed to be in good spirits, sitting in the grass and chewing gum in his mouth, while the other brown-haired foreigner was Hanging the briefcase around his neck, he walked to the depths of the grass on his own, apparently intending to make it easier.

Lin Xiaotang took the water bottle handed by He Chong, and took two sips. The cold water entered his throat, choking him and coughing softly. At this moment, he heard an exclamation behind him, followed by the sound of heavy objects falling into the water .

Everyone was startled, and hurriedly turned around to check, only to find that the brown-haired foreigner had disappeared. In the darkness, only the sound of hands slapping water and cries for help was heard.

Lin Xiaotang and the platoon leader Shen ran quickly to the place where the foreigner was standing. Lin Xiaotang was quick-handed and grabbed the platoon leader Shen, "Be careful where you step!"

Platoon Leader Shen Dingqing looked at it, and couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat. Not far from his feet was a dark well head, which turned out to be an abandoned well, and the foreigner's voice came from there.

Everyone gathered at the mouth of the well, and one of Platoon Leader Shen's subordinates turned on the flashlight and shone into the well, only to see that the foreigner was soaking in the water, with his briefcase still hanging around his neck, his hands supporting the well wall, still screaming for help. , Lin Xiaotang hurriedly told him to shut up, but it seemed a bit late.

The vigilant barking of the wolfhound has already been heard in the distance, the lights began to appear, and the light of dozens of flashlights flickered in disorder, and they were already moving towards here.

Lin Xiaotang secretly thought something was wrong, and immediately asked the military policeman to turn off the flashlight, and quickly searched around the well, grabbed a pile of wet well rope coiled in the grass on the ground, and handed it to the military policeman, "Quick, Fish him up, then take the three of them and run north immediately, this place is very close to Yijiang Gate, run as fast as you can!"

The military police looked at Platoon Leader Shen, and Platoon Leader Shen gritted his teeth, "According to what he said, after you and Lao Niu rescue the Master, escort Yungong and the others to retreat, and the others stay with me to stop the Japanese!"

The military police nodded, and handed over the semi-automatic rifle and bullet belt to Lin Xiaotang.

He Chong also wanted to go back with Platoon Leader Shen, but was stopped by Lin Xiaotang involuntarily, and must let the injured him retreat first

He Chong was stunned for a long while before nodding his head, "Hold on a little longer, fight while withdrawing, let's find a backup!"

Lin Xiaotang turned around and followed Platoon Leader Shen and his two men, under the cover of night, they quietly walked towards the way they came from.

The streets were full of ruins, and many places were suitable blocking positions. The four of Lin Xiaotang spread out and guarded the two sides of the street down the hillside respectively, forming crossfire. Lin Xiaotang and Platoon Leader Shen guarded the side next to the hillside.

Lin Xiaotang and Platoon Leader Shen chose a wall with only half of it left. The wall was thick enough, with a few gaps, facing the street, which was very suitable for ambushes.

Before the two of them had time to put down their weapons, they heard the sound of "hum, huh, huh", and then saw two black shadows in the mist sticking to the ground, rushing towards the two of them with the sound of teeth rubbing.

Lin Xiaotang gave a low drink. "Military dog!"

A black shadow had already kicked back, and rushed directly towards Lin Xiaotang's face. Lin Xiaotang stretched out his right hand, pulled out the samurai sword seized behind his back, and swung it with one hand. He heard a mournful "woo", and a huge dog's head instantly disappeared. Flying up, dog blood splashed all over Lin Xiaotang.

On the other side, Platoon Leader Shen also stabbed another wolfhound open with a dagger.

Lin Xiaotang wiped the blood on his face with his hand, spit a few mouthfuls, put the knife back into the scabbard on his back, and fell behind the wall.Platoon Leader Shen looked at him in surprise, and knelt down beside him, "You're skilled, I prefer to believe that you are a veteran!"

Lin Xiaotang pouted, but did not explain.

There was a loud gunshot, and the bullets shot aimlessly towards the hiding place of Lin Xiaotang and the two through the thick fog, hitting the ground and the wall, making muffled sounds from time to time

Lin Xiaotang's left arm was still sore, and it took a lot of effort to lift the gun in his hand. He put the muzzle of the gun on the wall, and finally relieved some of the burden on his left arm.

In the mist, shadowy figures appeared, there were hundreds of people, only more than 100 meters away from Lin Xiaotang and others.

Lin Xiaotang and Platoon Leader Shen looked at each other, took off the grenades from their bodies and put them at their feet, then removed the bottom cover, pulled off the fuses one by one and threw them out.
