Chapter 139: Injured City (Part 1)

(... The Japanese are actually very good at persuading surrender. Unlike the translator on TV who shouted those few words that could be memorized by memorizing. The Japanese often used tricks to make Chinese women with sweet voices broadcast the above-mentioned sayings about how miserable they were in the war, and how powerful the Japanese helped them to overcome the difficulties. It was really touching... Excerpted from "Grandpa's Memories of the War of Resistance")

"Our 67th Army, after the July 7 Incident, entered Hebei to replace the 29th Army, and fought from Hebei to Jiangnan; which battle was not fought in Yaomadu, Ziyahe, and Linming Pass? The battle was not done with the bloody battle in Songjiang for three days, and the military commanders and two brigade commanders died for the country... But when our brothers arrived in Nanjing, how did it be that the commander Wu Keren of the 67th Army disappeared and might surrender to the enemy and treason?" A big man said and cried: "When the military commander died in battle, it was right in front of me... Our military commander was wronged, our sixty-seventh Army wronged, and more than ten thousand brothers wronged..."

Is there such an injustice? Cao Xiaomin was shocked. He looked at the intoxicated with a stern face, and the latter nodded: "I will report this situation. I think I will not wrongly accuse anyone of no reason when I go up to the top. Maybe there is an intelligence error..."

"...Wu Keren died well! This group of Northeastern men never took the central government seriously. They would arm whatever they like; you see, their equipment is comparable to that of the German and military divisions! This time, I took the opportunity to dismantle it, so don't pass the information on Yunnong. Anyway, there is now rumors that Wu Keren will surrender to the enemy, which will be more conducive to dismantling the Sixty-Seventh Army..." The conversation between a military and political boss and the "boss" in the office just came into the intoxicated ears who were about to enter. At that time, I felt very uncomfortable when I heard it.

Could it be impossible to find out whether a commander died for his country or surrendered to the enemy? At this moment, the intoxicated heart hurts: These low-level officers and soldiers who regard military honors more than life are their flesh and blood that are carrying the safety of the nation, but who has survived what they have to bear? Even if it is an unjust case, they have to cover it. This is the need for the army to be reorganized! He has witnessed the passion of too many passionate soldiers and contacted too many passionate soldiers, which makes the intoxicated who know too much heart-wrenching! Intoxicated actually transformed a newspaper in his mind: The heroes of the anti-Japanese war, who have been tying the enemy and traitors today... Cao Xiaomin's big photo occupied the entire newspaper's page!

The smoke and dust raised behind the wheels had already blocked their sight. The Marines who were launching counterattacks in the wilderness, whose faces were blackened by the fire of war disappeared into the dust of history; in front, the fire at Yifeng Gate lit up dawn and was emitting a terrifying redness; further away, the smoke rolled in the direction of the Yijiang Gate Tower covered the sky and the sun... There were also ordinary people on the beach rushing towards the coal port. They heard that there were big ships crossing the river there; but no one knew that the barrier behind them, the lifeline drawn by soldiers in blood, was almost broken...

"...My family and I thought of going to Jiangbei, but were dispersed several times by the crowded crowd. After the crowd passed, I saw my father dying on the ground; at this time the imperial army came, I was very scared, but they did not hurt us, they carried my father to their military hospital..." A sweet and slightly sad female voice hovered over a large area of ​​ruins inside the Zhonghua Gate: "...The imperial army saved me and saved my family, I thank them; brothers of the Kuomintang army, put down your gun and walked out bravely, we, your sisters have prepared rice and steamed buns, and the hot rice and steamed buns are waiting for you...The imperial army will not be difficult for you..."

The rice, steamed buns, hot, so tempting... The "machete" suddenly felt a "gurgling" sound in his stomach. It hasn't been a long time since I've eaten anything in two days, right? The "machete" thought, but his eyes were staring at a abandoned house surrounded by a few broken walls not far away - a Japanese man who had fallen out of the line was trapped there.

...The Japanese are actually very good at persuading surrender. Unlike the translators who are like clowns on TV who can recite the same lines, the Japanese often use tricks to make Chinese women with sweet voices on the radio. The above-mentioned words they are miserable in the war, and how strongly she and her family have received from the Japanese to overcome the difficulties. It is really touching... Cao Xiaomin knew in advance what the Japanese would do. He had long emphasized one thing to his veterans and recruits, that the Japanese would lure surrender and then kill them; he even said several words of the Japanese to lure surrender!

The battalion commander is so powerful. We even know how the Japanese lie... But what should we do after killing this Japanese slaughter? The "Machete"'s mind suddenly became blank... By the way, what will "Little Buck Teeth" and "Xiao Nan", "Xiao Bei" and "Xiao Dong" do? "Machete" knows that the "Little Buck Teeth" is in the west of him, but he doesn't know who the brothers lurking among the dead in the other three directions, so he named them according to their corresponding position.

In the large ruins between the Zhonghua Gate and Guanghua Gate, the Chinese Democratic Party soldiers were still fighting!

With the sound of the Japanese temptations and surrenders, the Japanese reinforcements who were constantly joining in attack were used to finding food on the corpses. The brothers who were sleeping among the corpses were still fighting. Two days ago, the Japanese soldiers no longer came in to the ruins and took them. They just blocked this large area. In this way, the brothers even cut off the food and drinking water sources, but they were still fighting!

"Bang!" A gunshot seemed unusually loud in the wilderness that had been calm for a whole day. A Japanese helmet rolled to the ground with a "bang" and a corpse fell down like mud in the shadows.

There were actually Japanese soldiers on the ruins, and they were not many, and they were all trapped here in various melee battles. Because the large army had important battles to fight in various places, these Japanese soldiers were left by their superiors to settle the situation in Nanjing before they could deal with it. They were attacking and had the advantage; but they were abandoned by the enemy, and the mood of these Japanese soldiers was even lower than that of the same trapped Kuomintang soldiers!

The pastures in Hokkaido have all withered and become ruins in front of us. The horses have no grass to eat... A Japanese soldier's mind was full of hallucinations, and he could no longer tell the authenticity of the scenery in front of him. He had been fighting on this ruin for six days. His last companion tried to break out of the ruins last night, but he was shot at the head of the head when he walked out of the abandoned house. After a whole night of worry, the remaining soldier finally waited for dawn, but he did not expect armored vehicles - from time to time two days ago, there would be armored vehicles coming in to pick up the soldiers trapped in the ruins, but unfortunately he never approached his hiding point.

Didn't his troops enter Nanjing? Did the Japanese army actually defeated?... This is not impossible. The Chinese Democratic Party soldiers around him were so tenacious... By the way, the horses had no grass to eat and wanted to mow the grass... The trance-dreaming Japanese soldiers suddenly stood up for no reason, and walked out of the bunker with a few steps with anxiety on their faces...

"Bang!" Another gunshot sounded, and the Japanese soldier who came out of the abandoned house fell down; "Machete" was a pity. He had been staring at him for a night, but he didn't expect the target to come out in such a big way. Just as he was stunned, the Japanese fell down, it was the move of "Xiaobei"!

When the "machete" was frustrated, he suddenly saw a scene that made him cold - "Xiaobei" actually walked out of his hiding place! There was a smile on his face, a smile that was released and relieved!

Why?! Others don’t understand, but the “machete” understands: it is a kind of relief, a relief of giving up! Maybe “Xiaobei” had already agreed with him before shooting, and then he would ignore the last one, kill another Japanese... The “machete” once said to him like this, but he kept pushing back one by one...

"'Xiaobei' lay down!" "Machete" ignored the possibility of being exposed, and he shouted desperately, and even in his hallucination, he felt that the Japanese machine gun bullets had penetrated him!

The soldier he called "Xiaobei" still had that foolish expression on his face. As he walked, tears fell from his eyes: He was not really stupid, but he really couldn't hold on, so he chose to give up...

The sound of the machine gun strike of "Cece" only exists in the hallucination. The heavy machine gun in the distance did not fire! Amid the call of the "machete", "Xiaobei" staggered and approached the Japanese blockade line, but the machine gun did not sound!

"Does the Japanese really not kill us?" "Little Buck Teeth" was stunned and hid in the hiding place to watch this scene. Another female voice floated above her head: "...The Kuomintang army has all withdrawn from Nanjing. Thank God, the war has finally expired; today my son was finally discharged from the hospital. Under the treatment of the imperial army, his legs can already walk..."

Could it be that the battalion commander lied to us? No! The battalion commander would not lie to us... But the Japanese did not fire!... It was the Japanese who lied to us. When we all put down our guns, we would kill us. Yes, that must be the case! The "machete" seemed to see every comrade who died in the Wangting War, and saw himself crying in the refugee camp...

The "machete" gun aimed at "Xiaobei". He was afraid that after "Xiaobei" walked out, the others would surrender... It was "Xiaobei", who killed at least four Japanese devils in the ruins! The "machete"'s hand was trembling, and he couldn't pull the trigger!

"Little Buck Teeth" stood up! The first recruit in Wangting who used the trick of the "Old Bang Teeth" instructor to blow up the Japanese tanks stood up!...Don't he understand that the Japanese would not let us go? The "Machete"'s hand trembled even harder. He saw that the "Little Buck Teeth" was walking towards the Japanese defense line empty-handed...

Maybe this time I will meet a group of more kind Japanese devils? The "machete" gun was put down, although there was a voice in my heart shouting to him: Keep it up...

In extreme hunger and coldness, in the hallucinated thoughts, the "machete" stood up shakingly, with a sad and bitter smile on his face, and followed the "Little Buck Teeth". He saw "Xiao Nan" and "Xiao Dong" crawled out of the bunker one after another in danger...
