After blowing up the Japanese medical supplies, Xia Yuan quickly retreated with a few people.
After experiencing previous night raid operations, they discovered a strange point, that is, with several night raids, the Japanese army had a countermeasure.
For example, in this night attack, the Japanese soldiers never took off their clothes when sleeping. When the explosion sounded, the Japanese soldiers quickly gathered.
The Tao is one foot high, and the devil is one foot high.
Xia Yuan had discovered this a long time ago, so in the next few night raids, he did not let everyone attack the Japanese infantry. Instead, he destroyed the Japanese supplies as much as possible, mainly trucks, fuel, and artillery shells.
Collect some of them first and put them on your body, then quickly evacuate after the attack.
Don't procrastinate, don't be muddled.
Therefore, they suffered no casualties during these night attacks.
Most of this was due to Xia Yuan's rapid change of ideas, his well-formulated plan, and his plan to attack the Japanese garrison at night very smoothly, and there were no accidents in the entire process.
The success of the night attack on the Japanese military garrison resulted in even more crazy retaliation by the Japanese army.
Everyone was accustomed to all this. The next day, the Japanese army blocked the streets, strictly controlled them, and sent a large number of soldiers into the ruins to search.
Unfortunately, the Japanese army's search was destined to fail. Xia Yuan and them had already fled away from the Japanese army's station.
But nothing is certain. After hiding in Tibet for the next few days, they were discovered by the Japanese army again.
"The Chinese are here!"
The Japanese soldiers opened fire, attracting more Japanese soldiers.
The nine of them were once again surrounded by Japanese troops.
In addition, their injuries were not completely healed and not many of them were able to move. After resisting the Japanese attack for half a day, only four of the nine were left.
Instructor Li knew that he could not escape this time, so he said to Xia Yuan: "Sir Xia, you go first, we will cover you, and you must avenge us in the future."
Xia Yuan stared at Instructor Li's dark face, raised his head to look at the Japanese soldiers shaking in the ruins, and grinned: "What are you saying to be depressing? You hide here while I lure the Japanese away."
"No, it's too dangerous." Instructor Li said immediately.
"You also know the danger? Wouldn't it be more dangerous for you to stay? Don't worry about me. Let's settle it. I haven't been caught by the Japanese yet. Even if they want to catch me, they will have to pay a heavy price.
Xia Yuan unloaded the medicine and ammunition on his body and left them with them, "These things won't do much good on me. After you leave, go to the church. There is a truck there. I have repaired it. If there is a chance,
The co-pilot of the truck has a pass, try to see if you can escape."
"What about you?" Instructor Li asked.
"Me? You don't need to worry about it now. Take care." Xia Yuan held a gun and quickly moved away from the hiding place of several people along the ruins. Then he stood on a broken wall of a house and shot at the Japanese soldiers.
He shot and killed two Japanese soldiers, and his hiding place was also exposed to the eyes of the Japanese.
"Quick, the Chinese are there!"
"attack!"
"Catch them alive!"
Hundreds of Japanese soldiers smelled the smell and ran over.
"You're so special, you have a dog's nose." Xia Yuan didn't want to fight, put away his gun and ran quickly along the ruins. As he ran, he observed the surrounding situation, taking in a panoramic view of the surrounding terrain, and at the same time, he was also observing the pursuing Japanese troops.
Use grenades to lay hidden mines in the bunker.
The Japanese army pursued them too slowly and lost their target several times. It was Xia Yuan who exposed himself on his own initiative that allowed the Japanese to pursue him closely.
In his words, these Japanese devils are just a bunch of pigs.
After breaking through the Ming Jin, coupled with the system's blessing of the four-dimensional attributes of the body, Xia Yuan was very fast, running with all his strength, like a black lightning.
While running, he took time to shoot at the Japanese soldiers.
After chasing after each other, the Japanese army realized that something was not right. This Chinese man did not look like he was injured, and he was very fast. He could break a wall as high as one person and step on the top of the wall in two or three steps easily.
Turn over. When you get to them, you still need to take the human body.
As a result, just after climbing over the wall, the soldiers above were beaten to death by the Chinese.
After they climbed over the wall, they found that they were further away from the Chinese people.
He was like a monkey, jumping around in the ruins and making some difficult moves from time to time.
It didn't feel like escaping, but more like using Qinggong to fly around in the ruins.
This stunned the Japanese who were chasing behind. They shot randomly, but it was as if there were eyes behind the man. When the bullet was about to hit, the man dodged in an incredible posture.
"Nani, what the hell is that!"
Xia Yuan's escape skills stunned the Japanese soldiers.
He fell from the three-meter-high wall, rolled to release his strength, and rushed forward quickly with the gun in hand.
His physical fitness is getting stronger, his senses are getting more terrifying, and his ability to dodge bullets is also improving.
This is very scary.
"The four-dimensional attributes have exceeded 2, and the improvements brought about are huge, especially in the area of agility. It can not only improve body coordination, but also enhance jumping ability and reaction ability. It can be said that it is an all-round improvement."
Xia Yuan ran very fast.
He had already lured the Japanese troops away, and no longer needed to stay to wait for the Japanese. He was worried that they would not be able to catch up, so he specifically stopped to wait for the Japanese.
Lying in the corner of the ruins, Xia Yuan was finally able to take a breath, take a break, and walk forward along the ruins.
He didn't know where to go next. It was obviously impossible to go back. The Japanese had already surrounded him from behind. If he went back, he would undoubtedly fall into the Japanese encirclement.
Xia Yuan took the gun and ran along the street in the opposite direction.
Along the way, I saw a large number of citizens who were brutally murdered by the Japanese soldiers, and their bodies were scattered on the streets.
Some were shattered, incomplete, and some were complete, but horrific. The streets seemed to be painted with a layer of blood, like a passage leading to the underworld.
He saw that some citizens had rough palms, as if they had been in the military or had used guns frequently.
Xia Yuan recalled the night of the retreat.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! As the order to retreat was issued, the defense line of Jinling City began to collapse, and a large number of soldiers began to flee, scrambling to escape from Jinling.
The ferry prepared in advance could only accommodate about two divisions of troops.
But that night, five divisions were told to retreat.
Even some soldiers were not notified of the retreat.
When these soldiers saw other troops retreating, they thought they were fleeing on a large scale. To prevent him from escaping, they raised their machine guns and opened fire on hundreds of comrades. During the hasty and chaotic retreat, the roads were crowded with a large number of soldiers and some Chinese tanks.
It drove forward after running over countless Chinese soldiers, and stopped only after someone blew it up with a grenade.
Even in this large-scale evacuation tragedy, there were some funny moments. In order to avoid being captured by the Japanese army, the soldiers tried their best to blend in with ordinary people. They broke into stores to snatch civilian clothes and took off their military uniforms in public. There were many people on the streets.
It was almost crowded with half-naked soldiers and half-naked policemen, who also threw away their uniforms to avoid being mistaken for soldiers.
Some people were running around in the streets wearing only underwear and a top hat, which was probably stolen from the home of a wealthy government official. In the initial stage of the retreat, the army still maintained a semblance of order.
Teams of Chinese soldiers took off their military uniforms and put on civilian clothes while advancing in formation.
But when the retreat turned into a rout, snatching civilian clothing became very urgent.
Some people saw soldiers pounce on pedestrians, tear off their clothes from behind and keep them for themselves.
There is only one way to avoid the Japanese troops and evacuate Jinling safely.
That is to say, cross the Yangtze River via the dock in the north of the city, where a fleet is waiting for the first arriving soldiers.
To reach the dock, the soldiers must first rush to the main road, Zhongshan Road, and then pass through the northwest city gate, Yijiang Gate, before reaching the Xiaguan dock located in the northern suburbs of Jinling.
However, an incredible congestion situation occurred in front of Yijiang Gate. More than twice the number of people retreated, many people riding in trucks, horse-drawn carriages, and cars, all trying to force their way through the opening in the city wall, which was only seventy feet wide.
, the crowds of people leaving the city changed from a trickle at first to a roaring river at five o'clock in the afternoon.
In the middle of the night, the surging river turned into a torrent of people, and rifles, machine guns, and grenades piled up on the road. These were discarded by the soldiers in order to reduce their own load and speed up their journey.
The officers argued endlessly about which equipment should be destroyed and which should be carried across the river with the army. The soldiers drove the tanks onto the ships. Many ships capsized and the tanks sank to the bottom of the river.
As the night wore on, the soldiers began to cross the river by themselves, abandoning all their tanks and other equipment. As the number of ferries continued to decrease, the violent atmosphere at the scene became more intense. In the end, tens of thousands of soldiers fought for two or three ferries. Some of them fought hard.
Crowded onto the deck, some fired shots into the sky in an attempt to scare off others.
Terrified, Chuan Chuang swung his ax and chopped at the fingers of the soldiers clinging to the sides of the ferry, trying to get away from the surging crowd that was attacking the boat.
That night, countless people died trying to cross the river, and many did not even squeeze out of the city gate.
That night, a fire broke out on Zhongshan Road. The fire quickly spread to piles of discarded explosives, and the raging fire engulfed countless houses and cars.
The horses trapped on the road were frightened and jumped wildly, neighing wildly, which aggravated the chaos of the crowd. The frightened soldiers crowded forward desperately, hundreds of people were pushed into the fire, and many others were crowded in the narrow tunnels of the city wall and died miserably.
trample.
As the city gate was congested and fire worth hell was raging nearby, the soldiers who broke free from the chaos ran desperately to the city wall and tried to climb over the city wall. Hundreds of soldiers tore their clothes into strips, along with belts and leggings.
Tie together to make a rope ladder, they climbed up the city wall one by one, and used rifles and machine guns to throw them down from the recesses of the battlements. Many people fell from the city wall and died.
Even Commander Tang encountered a huge traffic jam on the way to the dock. Tang Shengzhi watched this extremely mixed scene through the window of the black car he was riding in.
As the car struggled through the chaotic crowd, he even heard the fleeing soldiers cursing at him: "You are still sitting in the car at this time."
People roared loudly, not knowing that sitting in the car was Tang Shengzhi, the commander-in-chief of Wei Xu Jinling.
He closed his eyes as if he hadn't heard anything.
The car crawled toward the point as slowly as a turtle. He was supposed to arrive at the pier at 6 p.m., but when he finally arrived at the pier, it was already 8 p.m., and a large number of soldiers crowded onto the ship gathered on the pier.
The person in charge of Commander Tang's safe evacuation also spent a lot of effort to find Commander Tang.
Commander Tang and the two deputy commanders boarded a small motorboat powered by coal. They had been waiting for the two staff officers who had not arrived until after nine o'clock in the evening. In the chaotic night, they could not wait after all.
On the small motorboat, Commander Tang heard the noise and screams of people fighting with each other, mixed with the deafening sound of Japanese artillery fire.
This is what he saw.
Jinling in the Fire.
The sky in the distance was illuminated red by the flames, as if overwhelming blood filled half of the sky.
Full of humiliation, Commander Tang looked at it with thoughts. The last time he saw Jinling, he was in dire straits.
The citizens were frantically trying to save themselves, while his soldiers were desperately holding driftwood, looking beautiful on the cold and dark river.
This scene deeply hurt his heart.
Even in the decades since then, he has never experienced such a dark day.
Until the next day.
Only then did some citizens learn that the defenders had fled and Jinling City had fallen.
But at this time, Jinling had already been surrounded by the Japanese army, and even Japanese warships were moored on the river.
It was surrounded on three sides and blocked by Japanese warships on one side.
Some people took desperate measures and tried to escape from the Japanese blockade area, which was almost impossible. At this time, the Japanese army had begun to kill people everywhere frantically. They received orders to deal with all the prisoners.
Where can I get these people to leave Jinling?
During the Jinling Rebellion, massacres were carried out, and the Japanese army had to destroy evidence and clean up all the corpses afterwards.
The elderly, children, and those who are too poor or too weak to escape safely.
These people have lost the protection of the government, have no personal resources, and cannot see a way out for the future. They can only hope that the Japanese can treat them well.
Many people told themselves that once the war was over, the Japanese would treat them with courtesy.
Some people even believe that the Japanese would be better rulers. After all, the government abandoned them when they needed help the most. Tired of war, tired of being bombed and besieged, when the Japanese army roared with tanks, artillery and trucks.
When the army entered Jinling, a few scattered groups of Chinese people did come out to welcome the invaders.
However, when the Japanese army entered Jinling City, what they longed for turned into a delusion. The Japanese army entered Jinling City and killed everyone they saw.
American doctor Wilson's diary on March 6, 1938 recorded his experience of seeing a doctor in Jinling City: "Two days ago, an elderly man came to the hospital from Molingguan Town for treatment... Japanese soldiers came to him every day asking for girls.
, wanted domestic animals. On February 12, several Japanese soldiers, angry at his incompetence, tied him up and hung him about 3 feet above the ground, untied his clothes, and lit a fire underneath to burn him."
