"Hello, I'm Jiang Dong!" Jiang Dong picked up the phone and said.

"Brother Jiang, I am your eldest brother Wang!" Wang Shihe's voice sounded gentle and elegant, with a sense of calmness and majesty that had been in power for a long time.

"Brother Wang, why do you remember to call me all the way across the country?"

"Haha!" Wang Shihe said with a smile: "Isn't it because your brother did something earth-shattering in Nanjing?"

"Oh!" Jiang Dong was a little surprised. The efficiency of the government has never been so high. "I wonder what the big brother is talking about?"

"Pretend, keep pretending!" Wang Shihe pretended to be angry: "You built a dock on the Yangtze River secretly, and then disobeyed the order to retreat and built a position. The chairman of the committee and I both know what you did!"

"The principal also knows!" Jiang Dong pretended to be frightened, "Then does he know that I evacuated all the people in Nanjing City?"

"What do you mean by that? Are you blaming the government for inaction? Or are you blaming the principal?" Wang Shihe asked three times in a row, his tone getting higher and higher.

"No, no, no!" Jiang Dong explained hurriedly, "How dare I blame anyone? Although I disobeyed orders, I just did what a soldier should do!"

"Hmph!" Wang Shihe snorted heavily, "Don't think that only your troops can fight. The rest are idiots. General Tang Shengzhi, Commander Wang Yaowu, Commander Song Xilian, and many others are saying good things about you to the Military Commission.

Well, everyone said that you saved their troops, and you really stole the show this time!"

"What I did was the duty of a soldier!"

"The principal heard about what you did, and he was both angry and pleased." Wang Shihe imitated, "He was pleased that you had the courage and ability to do so many things in such a short period of time. He was angry with you.

Disobey his orders and put yourself and the entire regiment in a life-and-death situation!"

"Brother Wang, please convey my gratitude to the principal for your concern."

"Okay, no more gossip." Wang Shihe said in a solemn tone, "You are too busy with your head and your buttocks. You still need the principal and the Military Commission to clean your butt. You should have already gotten into trouble with the Guoqi detachment. Please tell me later.

Bad news for you, a regiment of the Japanese 13th Division has crossed the Yangtze River from the lower reaches and is outflanking Pukou from the east!"

"Fuck, I've been talking nonsense for a long time, why didn't I get down to business earlier!" Jiang Dong cursed.

"How long does it take for the little devil to reach Pukou?" Jiangdong asked Xiaodouzi to bring him a map and compared it with the map.

"Brother Jiang, the military situation on the front line is not very accurate. It is estimated to be noon tomorrow!" Wang Shihe said in a heavy tone.

"For his grandma, this is too fast!"

"Hehe, the principal knew that you were not prepared, so he specifically asked the Military Commission to wipe your ass!"

"Uh, bro, what do you mean?"

"To tell you the truth, there is a military column parked 60 kilometers north along Jinpu Road. The principal asked the commander of the Third War Zone to overcome all difficulties and specially prepared it for you."

Jiang Dong looked at the map, "Why don't you drive directly to Pukou?"

"The railway near Pukou has been blown up by Japanese planes, and the train can only go there. So, brother, if you want to escape unscathed, you must rush to the position of the military train tonight. Once dawn, the Japanese planes will

Make it difficult for you to move forward!"

Jiangdong looked at the watch on his hand and saw that there were still 6 hours before dawn. It would be possible to travel 60 kilometers in 6 hours under normal circumstances, but there were still thousands of wounded in Pukou.

"What? Are you having trouble?" Seeing Jiang Dong not making a sound for a long time, Wang Shihe asked.

"There are still thousands of injured people in Pukou now. It is difficult to reach the 60-kilometer distance before dawn." Jiangdong said truthfully.

"Why are so many people injured?" Wang Shihe wondered. The whole Jiangdong regiment only had more than 2,000 people. What happened to the thousands of injured people?

"While we were organizing the people to evacuate, the Japs fired gas bombs on the dock. Nearly a thousand people died on the spot, and more than two thousand people were injured!" Jiang Dong quickly recounted the complete story.

Wang Shihe was silent for a long time, "Brother Jiang, is what you said true?"

"Absolutely true!"

"Is there any evidence?"

Jiang Dong suddenly thought of Su Qing, "There should be evidence!"

"That's good. We must protect the evidence and send it to Wuhan intact. The principal will not sit idly by and ignore such a thing!"

"yes!"

Thinking about it in Koto, the principal said he would not just sit idly by and take the photos and publicize them among ministers from European and American countries, so that foreigners could see the little devil's brutal behavior and at the same time strive for reconciliation and assistance!

Wang Shihe spoke earnestly again, "Brother Jiang, you have to rush to the position of the military column tomorrow no matter what. As for the other places that should be abandoned, abandon them. You can't save them for a while!"

"Thank you, Brother Wang, for your concern. I have my own arrangements!"

"Well, the principal is also very concerned about your safety. You must withdraw as soon as possible!"

After hanging up Wang Shihe's call, Jiang Dong seriously thought about the current situation again.

He would definitely not be able to abandon the wounded. Running 60 kilometers overnight with the wounded would drag down the entire army!

The whole regiment originally had 3,500 men, but after this day's battle there were only less than 2,000.

"Little Douzi!" A wrong decision is better than no decision at all.

"Captain, I'm here!"

"Notify all officers, remember all officers, to come to the headquarters immediately, I will give them 10 minutes!"

"Yes!" Xiaodouzi did not dare to hesitate at all and immediately told the orderer the order.

The first to arrive were Xiao Shanling, Xie Chengrui, He Dingyuan and Feng Jinzhang, and finally Wang Laohu and Zhang Shengqing.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Jiang Dong told everyone what he learned from Wang Shihe.

"Once the 13th Infantry Division arrives, Pukou will be trapped in a flanking situation. By then, we may have to shed a layer of skin even if we want to leave! So I decided that everyone will retreat tonight!"

"yes!"

Jiang Dong glanced at the crowd fiercely, "Now obey my orders, Zhang Shengqing!"

"Here!" Zhang Shengqing took a step forward.

"Your brothers left a company to cover, and the rest retreated after two hours. The covering brothers left their positions and chased the main force after four hours!"

"Yes, captain, please rest assured, I will make arrangements right away!" Zhang Shengqing turned and left.

"King Tiger!"

"Captain!"

"The 100 brothers in your group will set off now to conduct reconnaissance along Jinpu Road to eliminate any possible threats to the subsequent large forces!"

Wang Laohu made a ferocious expression, swung his gun and left.

"Feng Jinzhang, go to the medical station to find Dr. Sun and try your best to take away all the injured! You can take the young men under my brother's hands and our uninjured brothers. If there is no stretcher, remove the door panel. If there is no door panel,

Just look for wooden planks. In a word, you must let all the wounded retreat with the main force!"

"Yes, if a brother is left behind, please shoot me in the head, commander!"

Jiang Dong looked at the remaining people again, "You guys split up to inform the people stranded in the city that we are retreating, and ask them to leave Pukou tonight no matter what. You can go east or north. If you really want to go,

If you can’t, go hide in the nearest mountain.”

"Yes, let's go right away!"

.

"Dangdangdang..."

The small town of Pukou seemed to come to life in the middle of the night. Countless figures walked out of the alleys and gathered into a huge flow of people on the small streets.

The flow of people is like a giant dragon, meandering towards the north.

Jiangdong had no good solution. He could only rescue the common people from Nanjing. After crossing the river, Jiangdong could only let them continue to flee towards Wuhan or Xuzhou.

Although this journey has been difficult and difficult, at least life has been saved. With life, everything is possible.

Almost all the uninjured brothers went to carry the stretchers. Thousands of wounded lay groaning on the stretchers made of wooden boards and bamboo poles, and the whole line was stretched.

Some of the wounded died on stretchers before they had gone very far. The brothers could only throw them on the roadside, pull two handfuls of dry grass to cover the bodies, and the large army continued to move forward.

Urgent! Urgent!!!!

Jiang Dong has been urging the brothers to speed up. If they arrive a minute earlier, they can save a few more lives.

The Japs' planes will be dispatched at dawn. As long as they discover that Pukou is an empty city, they will surely pursue them along Jinpu Road.

With so many wounded, the Japs' plane could take dozens of lives with just one dive.

Hurry, as long as you can't die, go to death!

After walking these 60 kilometers, many people will survive.

The white color of fish belly has appeared in the east, but the expected military columns have not yet appeared.

'Chairman, please don't make such a joke on me!'

Jiangdong thought of the unreliable things done by the Nationalist Government, and felt guilty. Could it be that he was too reckless? He had not even confirmed whether the military column really existed, but he led everyone in confusion.

The ground broke out.

"Captain, we have walked more than 60 kilometers!" Xiaodouzi was also very anxious, and he couldn't help but remind him.

"Has Tiger King sent anyone back?" Jiang Dong asked.

"not yet!"
