Chapter 51 The Dream of a Great Power

All the way to Jiangdong, I saw a bearded foreigner arguing with Ding Beifeng, both of whom were blushing.

Ding Beifeng's work pressure in the past few days was no less than that of Jiangdong. He was able to make the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians cross the river smoothly, and he deserved the greatest credit.

"Brother!" Jiang Dong ignored the foreigner and greeted Ding Beifeng first.

"You're here, this ghost guy is so fucking difficult!" Ding Beifeng smiled bitterly. His eyes were tired, his face was weathered, and his hair was messy. He had been exhausted these past few days.

The appearance of his eldest brother makes Jiang Dong feel a little distressed. After all, in the past ten years, this eldest brother has always been pampered and only did some mental work. The dignitaries in Nanjing have to call him Mr. Ding when they see him. His current appearance is a bit...

Embarrassing, but Mr. Ding is still the same Mr. Ding who always speaks the truth.

"You go and have a rest first and let me handle it!" Jiang Zhong said to Ding Beifeng.

"Hey, there's no time to rest. The little devils are about to attack. I'll send all the people and wounded people who haven't crossed the river as soon as possible." Ding Beifeng squeezed out a smile from the corner of his mouth, "Then I'll leave this devil to you.

is you!"

Seeing Ding Beifeng straightening his back and walking towards the dock again, Jiang Dong was filled with gratitude. Neither of them were Uncle Ding's biological sons, but the idea of ​​serving the country and the family was still passed down from Uncle Ding.

"Hey, Jiang, you must pay us all the money you promised us!" The bearded foreigner who had just been talking to Ding Beifeng when Jiang Dong was talking to himself made the bearded foreigner impatient. Now he finally seized the opportunity to speak.

Jiang Dong turned his head and looked at the foreigner who was shouting coldly, "What do you call this Mr. Captain?"

"Oh, my name is Johnson, you can call me Captain Johnson!"

"Well, Captain Johnson, we agreed before that you would work for me for two days, and after two days I would pay the remaining wages together. Why have you started asking me for wages before the time is up?"

Jiangdong is serious and authentic.

"Oh my god, Jiang, didn't you see the Japanese plane just now?" Captain Johnson made an exaggerated gesture, "The Japanese have occupied your capital, and you have lost this war. If you don't leave their infantry,

will rush over, and all of us will become prisoners of the Japanese! The Japanese are all yellow-skinned monkeys and will not abide by the Prisoner of War Convention."

Jiangdong listened calmly to Johnson's words, "Captain Johnson, I hope you can understand that although the Japanese have occupied our capital Nanjing, it does not mean that we have been defeated. On the contrary, this will be a battle between China and Japan.

The country, the beginning of a life-and-death war between two nations, will fight to the death! As for whether they will abide by the prisoner of war convention, I don't care, because they have no chance of capturing us!"

"Oh God!" Johnson couldn't understand what Jiangdong said, "Don't worry about the damn war for now, I want you to pay us the remaining wages now. This war has nothing to do with us, and I won't let our crew take it.

Risk your life!"

Jiang Dong's face was cold, "High risks lead to high returns. Since you don't want to take risks, there is no need to talk about returns. As for the rent and wages that have been paid, I will be generous and not ask for it from you!"

"You, you, you..." Johnson pointed at Jiangdong angrily, "You Chinese are barbaric people just like the Japanese, and you have no spirit of contract at all!"

Jiang Dong wanted to slap Johnson on the fat face, "I don't want to tangle with you anymore. You can leave if you want. Unless you finish today's work, there is no need to discuss the remaining wages!"

After Jiang Dong finished speaking, he turned around and wanted to leave. He still had many things to do, and arguing with Johnson was meaningless except a waste of time.

"Our ship belongs to the Anglo-German Chamber of Commerce, and we agree to help you for the sake of Mr. Rabe!" Johnson shouted from behind: "The president of our chamber of commerce knows you, Chairman Chiang, if you don't come today

Give me the money, and I promise to take the case to your chairman. You, a little colonel, can't fight us!"

Jiang Dong slowly turned around, the murderous intent in his eyes could no longer be concealed. He stared at Johnson like a tiger. The latter was so frightened that he took several steps back. "If you want to complain, go ahead. I won't."

I’m stopping you. Again, unless you work, you don’t need money!”

After saying that, he ignored Johnson and walked towards the southern position with Xiaodouzi. Because there were already vague gunshots over there, and it sounded like most of them were shot by the little Japs.

.

"Fuck, they are all a bunch of yellow-skinned monkeys!"

Johnson's scolding came from afar, and Jiang Dong seemed not to have heard it!

These captains may really be related to the chairman of the committee, but who cares? After this battle, life or death depends on God.

"Captain, why are the foreign devils so arrogant?" Xiaodouzi's little mind couldn't figure out why foreigners would threaten him so unscrupulously on his own land.

Jiangdong had a sad smile on his face, "German devils, American devils, British devils; these people are no different in essence from little Japanese devils. The Japanese devils use violent means of force to invade our country and plunder our resources; and those in front

As for the devils, they took away everything that should be robbed decades ago. Now they have put on smiling faces and invaded our country in a 'civilized' way. Their methods have become more sophisticated. In short, the devils are not

What a good bird!"

Xiaodouzi seemed to understand, "Are we just going to let them pretend to be uncles like this?"

Jiangdong stopped, "Our main goal now is to drive away the Japanese devils. After we kill all the little Japanese, we can no longer let any foreigners act recklessly on our land!"

"Yes, kill the Japanese!" Xiaodouzi nodded vigorously, and from then on his young heart filled with the dream of a great nation.

He will kill the Japanese for this dream, live for this dream, and die for this dream!

Xiaodouzi touched the cloth shoes around his waist again, hoping to find the unknown eldest brother for Aunt Wang one day soon.

Maybe one day we can build our country with my eldest brother and let all the devils crawl at our feet.

Xiaodouzi straightened his military uniform, puffed out his chest, and strode behind Jiang Dong.

..

In front of the western position, the sound of gunfire became more and more intensive. They were all the sounds of small Japanese rifles and light and heavy machine guns. The sounds of formal and other national military equipment were rarely heard.

"What's going on? What are the little devils fighting for?" Jiang Dong came to the front of the position.

"I don't know!" Feng Jinzhang was also confused at this moment.

"Could it be the little devils who are massacring our people?" Li Shi guessed.

His reminder made both Jiang Dong and Feng Jinzhang widen their eyes. With the kid's usual urination, it was very likely that he would do such a thing.

"No wait, Li Shi, please take a look. If the little devil is really killing our people, we must save the people!"

Just as Li Shi turned around, he heard a brother shouting from the position, "Company Commander, someone is coming towards us!"

Jiang Dong quickly raised his telescope, and saw hundreds of brothers from the national army fleeing in the distance.

Behind them were more than 100 little Japs, who were running and shooting. Many of the brothers who were running for their lives were knocked down on the road.

"Cover cover!"

Feng Jinzhang also saw the situation clearly and hurriedly ordered his brothers to shoot and cover.

Hundreds of brothers from the national army were running along the base of the city wall. When they saw their own blocking position in front of them, their physical strength, which was close to being exhausted, exploded again and they accelerated towards the position.

Jiang Dong clearly saw that there was an officer among the brothers in the national army. There were two general stars shining on the officer's shoulders. He was still a lieutenant general.

"Eh!" Jiang Dong frowned. Senior officials like Tang Shengzhi and Song Xilian had already retreated early. Why did a lieutenant general appear here again?

"Captain Li, take your people up to respond!" Jiang Dong ordered.

The chasing Japs were suddenly hit by fire from the position. The four or five who were at the front went to see Amaterasu. The other Japs also slowed down their pursuit, and the pressure on the Lieutenant General and the brothers was greatly reduced.

, and soon approached the position.

Li Shi led more than 100 brothers to respond and pushed back the pursuing Japs.

Seeing that he couldn't get any advantage, the little Japanese abandoned a few corpses and retreated to the south.

"Huhuhu..."

The hundreds of brothers who escaped were lying in the trench like dead dogs, gasping for air. Everyone rolled their eyes, as if they were about to die.

Jiangdong's soldiers spontaneously handed water to these brothers and stood aside to watch them pour it.

After resting for a few minutes, the lieutenant general sat up against the trench and asked, "Where is your commander?"

Jiang Dong walked around the brother lying dead on the ground, "I've seen you, sir!"

The lieutenant general waved his hand feebly, "Don't call me sir, I wonder which brother saved me and my brothers!"

"I humble my post as Jiangdong and serve as the leader of our brothers!"

The lieutenant general took a sip of water and said, "It turns out to be Brother Jiang. Thank you for your life-saving grace. Without you, hundreds of brothers and I would have been here today!"

"I wonder what you call me, sir?" Jiang Dong asked tentatively, he was very curious about the identity of the lieutenant general in front of him.

The lieutenant general motioned Jiang Dong to sit down in the trench with him, "Oh, it's so unspeakable for a defeated general! I, Xiao Shanling, am the commander-in-chief of the Nanjing Military Police Department!"

"I've met the commander!" Jiang Dong and several people behind him stood at attention and saluted. The commander of the military police was considered a senior general.

‘Xiao Shan Order?’

Jiang Dong quickly recalled the name in his mind, and he found the target with almost no effort.

Xiao Shanling, the commander-in-chief of the Nanjing Military Police, died in the Nanjing Defense War in 1937. He was the highest-ranking general who died in this battle. Later, the Nationalist Government awarded him the title of Army General.

'Tsk, tsk, another person whose life path has been changed by my arrival!'

In the original history, the retreat from Xiaguan Pier was extremely chaotic, with a large number of soldiers and civilians, and only two ferries.

After occupying Nanjing, the Japs surrounded many troops and civilians at the Xiaguan Pier. Many people jumped into the Yangtze River in despair holding planks of wood and anything else that could float.

The Japs were pressing forward step by step, but no one could stop them. Seeing that there was no hope of crossing the river, Lieutenant General Xiao Shan led his brothers to launch a counterattack against the Japs, and finally died on the bank of the Yangtze River.

But in this time and space, Xiao Shanling was sitting in front of him intact, how could Jiang Dong not feel emotional.

"How did you come up with the idea of ​​building a position here?" Xiao Shanling's words pulled Jiang Dong out of his thoughts.

"It's like this. The humble post has been organizing the Nanjing people and the defeated troops to retreat in the past few days." Jiang Dong immediately told Xiao Shan Ling what he had said to Xie Chengrui before.

General Xiao was speechless for a long time after listening to Jiang Dong's story. He couldn't believe that someone could complete such a shocking project.

"You are the saviors of the people of Nanjing. The party and state are so lucky to have people like you!"

"The general is ridiculous, what we did was nothing more than a soldier's duty!"

At this moment, five Japanese fighter planes swooped over the city of Nanjing in a menacing manner.

You can tell at a glance that these five aircraft are not reconnaissance aircraft, but actual Jaap fighter jets.

Such a menacing attitude was obviously directed at Hope Pier.
