Heroes of the War of Resistance

"Okay! How to interrogate, you can make up your own mind. However, officers at the rank of chief officer have a tough mouth. We are already trapped in an isolated city, so there is no need to worry about it. Come here as you like, even if you die."

"Hehe! Don't worry, it's not so easy to die in the hands of our military commander. If his bones are really hard, I can also pry his mouth open. Can I send a telegram to the bureau chief?"

"Of course! This credit can be credited to your stay! If you have a chance, I will send you a general to enjoy yourself next time!"

"Brother Hu, you said this, I remember it!"

"It's just a premise, I have to leave alive!"

After laughing, Hu Biao kept his promise and handed Mentaro Inoue, who was captured from the battlefield, to Chen Gongshu for interrogation.And at the moment, Ushishima Sadao, who was staying outside the city, looked at the remnant who had withdrawn in embarrassment, with a gloomy and terrifying expression.

Staring at the anxious lieutenant, he said, "Remember, your captain was killed in battle, not captured, understand?"

"Hi! Captain Yu Sui, I'll remember this humble job!"

Hearing what the lieutenant said, Ushishima Sadao said very directly: "Chief of Staff, send all the troops withdrawn from the Inoue Regiment to the Logistics Regiment. When it is necessary to organize death squads later, let them replace His Majesty tiān huang Be faithful!"

"Hi!"

Ushijima Sadao was also very dissatisfied and looked down upon these remnants of the Inoue Regiment who withdrew from the battle.In Ushishima Sadao's view, since their captain was captured, they should not be alive, but should be broken together with the captain.

The surviving lieutenant who also heard the order wanted to beg for mercy or explain a few words, but finally kept his mouth shut.As an officer, the lieutenant had realized from the time of the retreat that those of them who survived would have a tragic end.

On the other hand, those who died in battle may still have a chance to have their ashes brought back to the country, and they may still have a chance to be judged as dead in battle.As for them, once they join the death squad of the division, there is still very little chance of surviving.

In a sense, they are all the losers of the division, and even brought shame to the division.If you don't want to accept military law, you can only join the Death Squad to commit crimes and make meritorious service, and wash away the shame you have received at this moment with blood.

The Jinling people who have been paying attention to the movement in the city, when they heard the gunshots from the Presidential Palace subside again, these people will also worry: "The gunshots stopped again! I don't know if the defenders have stopped the little devil's attack. !"

"It can't be stopped! The little devils have entered the city in large numbers right now, and those troops will be wiped out by the little devils sooner or later!"

"Oh! I don't know when this troubled world will end! When the little devil enters the city, I don't know if it will be a blessing or a curse!"

In fact, the little devils who have entered the city at this moment are searching door to door.In addition to robbing people's property, they are also creating killings.On the other side of the international safety zone, a troop of little devils also came.

Seeing these Japanese soldiers appearing in front of the safe zone, several foreigners in charge of the safe zone also stood in front of them directly and warned the Japanese soldiers that this is a safe zone and these Japanese troops are forbidden to enter.

Regarding the warning of these foreigners, the little devil officer who led the team also said very seriously: "We suspect that you are in the safe zone, hiding a large number of Chinese prisoners of war. In order to avoid conflicts, we need to go in and search!"

"Absolutely impossible! How many innocent civilian casualties have been caused by your war actions. If you dare to attack the safe zone, then arrest us together, as long as you are not afraid of stirring up international disputes!"

These foreigners staying in the safe zone have already learned about the Japanese army's mass murder of civilians in Jinling through the radio station and the liaison officer of the military command.After learning the news, they also notified the radio station to contact their respective embassies and consulates.

Knowing their situation in Jinling, the embassies and consulates of various countries also asked these foreigners to confirm the name of the embassy and send corresponding notes to the headquarters of the Japanese army dispatched army and Japan.

The content of the note is very simple, which is to ensure that the international safe zone will not be impacted.These countries do not rule out political or military intervention if the Japanese army dares to forcibly storm the international safety zone and cause their nationals to die in the conflict.

Most of the foreigners who set up their embassies and consulates in the Shanghai Concession knew very well how much indignation the Chinese people had aroused after the camp of dead soldiers was electrified.Regardless of whether it is out of humanitarian assistance or a show of favor, these foreign consuls feel that it is necessary to take a stand.

That is, they did not want to interfere in this war, but they had to restrain the Japanese army's war behavior.Since Jinling established an international safe zone, the Japanese army must abide by the rules of the safe zone and cannot kill innocent civilians in the safe zone at will.

Faced with such a tough attitude towards the foreigners who manage the safe zone, the military officer leading the team also found it a bit tricky, and finally had to report the situation.As the person in charge of the safe zone, Rabe also submitted the kàng yì to the Japanese military headquarters.

When the general of the Japanese army accused some of the defenders of the city to hide in the safe zone, Rabe said directly: "Do you have evidence? If I let you search the city and find no prisoners of war, you will be charged with storming the safe zone." , are you willing to bear it?

In fact, just before you entered the city, General Hu, who was still sticking to Jinling, sent people to the safe zone, and drove out all the rout soldiers pretending to be ordinary people.He did this because he knew you would make excuses like this! "

"So, sir, have you met that General Hu?"

"No! As a neutral party, we don't want to participate in the war between your two countries. The safe zone is only for humanitarian relief. But we still condemn the actions of you tú shā civilians! You shouldn't do this!"

Through the information revealed by Rabe, the Japanese army finally realized that Hu, who was being powered on in the clear code, had done a lot of preparations before they entered the city.If you wantonly tú shā civilians, I am afraid that it will arouse even stronger condemnation and indignation from the international community!

Chapter Table of Contents Chapter [-] pissed off the devil!

In the name of Jinling Death Soldiers Camp, Hu Biao continued to send news about the innocent civilians of the Japanese army to the outside world.Some newspapers that were still in normal circulation also published the news as soon as possible, so that more citizens could know about the Japanese army's bombing.

As colonists, foreigners in the concession can also see a wave of anger brewing in the concession.Once this anger affects the colonists, these foreigners are also very worried that their interests in China will not be guaranteed.

The two armies are fighting for their own masters, and when it comes to war matters, it is not easy for foreigners to criticize the Japanese government too much.But when it comes to wantonly tú shā innocent civilians, the foreigners who have always advertised as zì yóumín zhǔ naturally found an opportunity to criticize.

Even if the Japanese government is still going its own way, and in the face of attacks from many countries, the Japanese government must also take into account the international influence.To support such a national war, Japan also needs to import a large amount of strategic materials from other countries.

If you really want to annoy these countries and threaten the export of strategic materials, I am afraid that the Japanese government will be very troublesome.The so-called public anger is hard to offend, and the Japanese government can only send a secret telegram to the army headquarters to let it eliminate the influence as soon as possible.

From the moment he decided to turn on the power in a clear code, Hu Biao wanted to use the pressure of yú lùn to force the Japanese army to dare not do that kind of inhumane big tú shā after the capture of Jinling.It now appears that this kind of yú lùn pressure has brought a lot of trouble to the Japanese army.

In the same way, the Japanese army, who knew who caused these yú lùn pressures, wanted to pull out Hu Biao and the death camp formed by him and behead them all.Ushishima Sadao also felt pressured by the telegram to urge the Tenth Division.

Looking at the third telegram sent by the headquarters, Ushishima Sadao couldn't help complaining: "What's the use of urging any more! If the heavy artillery brigade is not in place, will the warriors be required to use their precious lives to win the victory?" ?"

Although he hated Mentaro Inoue's incompetence, Ushijima Sadao also knew that the failure of the Inoue Regiment was not because the soldiers were not brave enough to fight.The reason is that the battalion of dead soldiers who defend and block has occupied too many opportunities and advantages on the battlefield.

The entire wing attacked many times, and more than 2000 soldiers were killed. Such sacrifices are enough to show how cruel the battle is.Until now, the remains of countless fallen soldiers are still buried in the collapsed ruins of the city.

If they can't destroy the blocking fortifications built in advance by the death camp, fighting in such narrow streets and lanes, they will be very disadvantaged as the offensive side.With the example of the Inoue United team, how could Ushishima Sadao not learn his lesson?

It was not until nightfall that the heavy artillery brigade ordered to reinforce arrived at the combat area.After seeing the building where the cannon was hidden, the artillery observer who was responsible for measuring the distance and position finally knew why the Tenth Division had not made any progress.

The sides of those buildings are just facing Zhi Street, and most of the buildings are made of reinforced concrete.It is really difficult to destroy those buildings with the mountain artillery squadron of the Tenth Division alone, let alone the cannon positions in the middle of the floors.

After confirming the target of the bombardment, the head of the Japanese brigade who led the artillery under his command said with a little pity: "Your Excellency, once the shelling starts, those targets will be completely destroyed. Don't you think it's a pity?"

"Compared with these buildings, I care more about the lives of the warriors under my command. Although I really want to keep these buildings, the current situation does not allow me to do so. What I have to do is to capture the presidential palace as soon as possible and eliminate the people here. China Army!"

"Since this is the case, please give the order to the division commander! Once the artillery is fired, that area will be razed to the ground!"

The commander of the artillery brigade who cooperated with the battle, although it is a pity that those floors should have been occupied.But he also understands that if the buildings on the offensive road are not destroyed, the attacking troops will suffer heavy casualties.

Arriving at the Tenth Division, the brigade commander of the major general already knew that an infantry regiment that was in charge of the attack in the early stage was almost wiped out.Such heavy casualties have never occurred even in the attack on Jinling this time!

On the quickly built heavy artillery position, countless artillerymen began to shake the artillery busyly. After confirming the angle of attack, a commander shouted with a command flag: "Everyone, get ready! Let go!"

The command flag fell, and the gunner standing next to the heavy artillery immediately pulled the bolt, and with a loud bang, countless heavy artillery shells flew out of the barrel.Xu Sandao and others who were on the ground changed their expressions instantly when they heard the voice outside the city.

"Not good! It's a heavy artillery, quickly retreat into the anti-aircraft hole! Come on, don't worry about those weapons, save your life!"

After the voice fell, the heavy artillery fired in the first round immediately landed in the blocking area.While discussing how the night battle should be organized in the presidential palace, Hu Biao rushed out of the headquarters quickly when he heard the violent explosion coming from the front.

Looking at the place where the thick smoke rose, Hu Biao said with a serious face: "It seems that our blockade really pissed off the little devil. Look at this posture, the little devil is planning to burn our blockade position to the ground! "

"Listening to the sound of bào zhà, it should be the heavy artillery of the little devil! In this case, should we ask Company Commander Xu and the others to withdraw?"

"It's too late! The little devil didn't conduct a test firing, and the first shot was a cover strike. Retreating at this time is more likely to cause casualties. I hope that Lao Xu and the others can retreat into the anti-gun pit in time, and maybe they can escape.

Er Shuan informed Company Commander Liu Quan to immediately organize troops into the forward position, ready to meet Lao Xu and his retreat.Remember to tell Company Commander Liu that before the shelling stops, no reinforcements are allowed, as this will only increase casualties. "

"Yes!"
