Seeing Xu Shijiu knocking away the grenade fuse, the seven or eight Japanese soldiers around him turned around and ran away. However, before the Japanese soldiers could run away these days, faint lights came from the left back with a "squeaking" roar. At this time, the sky was slightly dark, and it was clear that this was clearly a trajectory drawn by a bullet!

This is... the reinforcements have arrived? Where is the problem? Xu Shijiu turned around in shock and saw someone standing in the trench forty or fifty meters away. The man was carrying the Amaryllis mechanism to shoot here wildly, and while shooting, he shouted: "Little Japanese has no books, the 19th Brigade is here, die, die..."

After coming to his senses, Xu Shijiu quickly threw the grenade and quickly fell to the ground.

Gao Shenxing reacted faster on the other side. Before Xu Shijiu could throw away the grenade, he had already turned over and fell down.

After two huge explosions, more than a dozen Japanese soldiers were blown to the ground. Xu Shijiu looked back through the smoke and saw more figures gushing out from behind the figure, at least a dozen, and each of them had a turtle flower mechanism on their chests. More than a dozen were spitting out firepower violently, and they swallowed up the turtle soldier in an instant.

Xiao Riwuben piled up more than twenty corpses, and in the end only a dozen left, he fled back in a hurry.

"Reinforcements" quickly entered the position, and Xu Shijiu found that the leader was the Chief of Officer Cao Mancang: "Why are you, Lao Cao? I didn't ask you to follow the main force of the division to cross the river to retreat, why are you back?"

Cao Mancang ran back secretly. After he sent Shu Tongwen, Ergua and the others safely to the north bank of the Yangtze River, he secretly hid in the ferry cabin and returned to the south bank, and then slipped away while the night was dark. He was not going to be a deserter, but to return to Saihongqiao and Xu Shijiu and his brothers from the 19th Brigade to live and die together!

As a result, I met Guo Weiquan and his guard company halfway.

Cao Mancang smiled and whispered: "Captain, our 19th Route Army has never deserted."

Xu Shijiu was a little moved and sad. If Cao Mancang could cross the river alive, at least there would be a real veteran of the 19th Route Army. Now that he is back, there will be no veteran of the 19th Route Army in this world. He sighed and Xu Shijiu asked Cao Mancang again: "Does the troops have crossed the river? Are there Awen, Ergua and the others?"

"It's crossing the river, Ergua and the others have already crossed the river with the large army." Cao Mancang nodded repeatedly.

Feng Shengfa's guard company commander Guo Weiquan came forward and saluted Xu Shijiu, saying, "Captain Xu, the division commander asked me to come and pick you up. Your division commander's mission has been completed. Now, hurry up and break through with us. The division commander has arranged a ferry to wait in Sanhankou. If everything goes well, we can cross the river tonight."

"That's good, that's good." Xu Shijiu let out a long breath, and his body suddenly shook.

"Captain, what's wrong with you?" Cao Mancang quickly stepped forward to support Xu Shijiu, but found that Xu Shijiu's back was wet and sticky. He got closer and smelled it, and it smelled bloody. He was shocked at the time and said in a lost voice, "Captain, are you injured? Where is the injury? Let me see where is the injury?"

"It's okay, I can't die." Xu Shijiu waved his hand and said, "Let Xiaori Wuwuben tear a hole in his back."

Cao Mancang stopped talking and quickly took off his military uniform for Xu Shijiu. He found that he had a lot of blood flowing, but the wound had scabbed. He sprinkled some sulfonamide powder on it and then bandaged it with gauze.

After the bandage was finished, Cao Mancang asked, "Captain, where are the other brothers?"

"All dead, only Lao Gao and I are left." Xu Shijiu sighed and said, "If you come late for a while, Lao Gao and I will probably have already lie down."

Cao Mancang could only sigh. The 19th Brigade was ordered to cut off the rear, which was originally a mortal task. Xu Shijiu and Gao Shenxing were still alive until now, which was a miracle.

Guo Weiquan urged again: "Sir Xu, if you can still hold on, you should leave quickly."

"Yes, yes, yes, hurry up and leave while the Japanese army has not completed the encirclement." Xu Shijiu nodded repeatedly, and then, he had just stood up, but suddenly there were fierce gunfires in the northwest direction, followed by a dense explosion. Hearing the sound, this was obviously not the gunfire of the national army, but the Japanese army's crooked hands, and the 38th bulb.

"It's broken!" Guo Weiquan's face changed drastically, "The gunshots come from the direction of Sanhankou, and our retreat has been cut off!"

Xu Shijiu said: "Judged by the gunshots and explosions, the Japanese army attacking Sanhankou had at least one infantry brigade, as well as 92 infantry artillery and 75mm caliber field howitzer. If nothing unexpected happens, the ferry left to us by the division seat may have been controlled by Xiaoji Wuben. It is no longer possible to cross the river from Sanhankou."

Guo Weiquan's eyes flashed with an inexplicable harsh look and said with a grim voice: "Then break through the front!"

Gao Shenxing reminded him extremely coldly: "The front and left and right wings are all Japanese troops. With our little force, breaking through from the front is simply a search for death."

Cao Mancang said: "What should I do? You can't wait to die here, right?"

Gao Shenxing said: "The only way to live is behind you. Xiao Ri Wu Ben has just entered the city. Now he has controlled at most several city gates. We can enter the city from the gap between Zhonghua Gate and Shuixi Gate."

"I'm afraid it's a dead end to enter the city!" Guo Weiquan said, "Little Ri Wu Ben will definitely search the whole city. How many days can he hide?"

"Hide? Why do we hide?" Gao Shenxing picked up the helmet from the ground and held it heavily on his head, and said, "Nanjing Wucheng is so big, enough for us to move around. Once we enter the city, we will have fun with Xiao Ri Wucheng."

Inside the Chinese Gate, a squad of Japanese soldiers were searching and moving forward in an alley

This is a search team of the Seikawa regiment (47th Infantry Regiment), the leader of the 6th Division of the Japanese Army. Their mission is to search for Chinese soldiers hiding in private houses, then escort them to the streets and hand them over to other teams, and finally escort them to the outside of the city of Nanjing to massacre. Long before entering the city, Yanagawa Heisuke had already issued an order to kill all prisoners of war.

The 19th Brigade's defensive defense on the Saihongqiao position did not prevent the Japanese 6th Division from entering the city. As early as yesterday morning, an infantry brigade of the Hasegawa United had bypassed Saihongqiao and rushed to the Zhonghua Gate. A squadron leader named Sanming Baozhen planted the sun flag onto the Zhonghua Gate Tower, and Nanjing Wucheng officially declared its fall.

The great contribution of the first capture of Nanjing finally fell on the 6th Division.

After controlling the Zhonghua Gate, the 6th Division began to divide its troops into the city and arrested the hidden national army everywhere. In fact, this was just an excuse. Xiao Ni's purpose was nothing more than burning, killing, robbing, and rape. Since the landing of Jinshanwei, they have been doing this. Now that they have entered Nanjing Wucheng, how can they "show mercy"?

However, the little Japanese troops entering the city were still very nervous, because the aviation force reported that because there were not enough ferries at Xiaguan Wharf, the 30,000 to 40,000 troops crowded on Xiaguan Wharf yesterday returned to the city from Yijiangmen. If the 30,000 to 40,000 troops occupied the streets and alleys in Nanjing City and fought street battles with the Japanese army, it would be very troublesome.

Therefore, the Japanese search team seemed cautious every step forward. In which corner of Gong, there would be no bullet suddenly shot out of a corner, and they were killed on the spot.

"Light!" A crisp sound of impact suddenly came from a closed door in front of him.

The leader of the Japanese Army, waved his hand, and the only crooked machine gun in the class was set up at the gate. For more than a dozen Japanese soldiers also scattered, and the black muzzles were all aimed at the closed gate. The Japanese Army, Cao, pointed at a Japanese Army, and then he shouted, and then went forward and kicked open the gate.

There was no bullet that was shot out as I imagined, and I saw only a row of terrified faces.

"Chinese soldiers!" Seeing this row of frightened faces with all their squinted faces and were wearing military uniforms. Many people were holding guns in their hands. The Japanese soldiers who were kicking the door suddenly screamed instinctively. While using bayonets to gesture to the row of Chinese soldiers in front of them, they shouted hysterically, "Raise your hands, raise your hands..."

The frightened faces were all confused until one of them whispered, "Did he ask us to confiscate the gun?" Then, rows of Hanyang-made, Zhongzheng, Czech and even flower institutions were all held in the air.

The Japanese soldiers who kicked the door were frightened to find that there was not only the row of national troops in front of them, but behind the row of national troops, there were even the national troops. He was short just now, so he didn't get a glimpse of the whole picture. Now the national troops raised their guns and immediately exposed them. What a good guy, there are at least four or five hundred people, a battalion of troops!

That day, the soldiers were almost scared, and their hands holding the bayonet began to tremble violently, and turned their heads and shouted: "Captain Cao, come quickly, Chinese soldiers, many soldiers..."

The Japanese Chief Cao hurried up with a saber in his arms. Seeing all kinds of guns and weapons raised high in the hall, he couldn't help but take a breath. God, so many national troops are still holding weapons. If he starts, his squad will not be enough to get people in his squad. However, the Japanese Chief Cao is a veteran after all, and he is still calm.

The Japanese Chief Cao pulled the Japanese soldier who was kicking the door aside, and asked another Japanese soldier who knew Chinese to step forward, ordered the national army inside to hold the guns and come out one by one, and put the guns on the steps in front of the house, and then went to the street with empty hands. Soon, more than 500 national soldiers were disarmed.

It was not until all the national army was disarmed that the Japanese army Cao Chang breathed a long sigh of relief. The Chinese soldiers without weapons were like wolves without fangs, and there was no more threats.

However, just as the Japanese Chief Cao relaxed his vigilance, a bullet suddenly shot out from a corner, and it pierced through his helmet and stirred his brain into a ball of mud. The Japanese Chief Cao collapsed to the ground without even saying a word, and his soul returned to Japan Island.

Immediately afterwards, dozens of fully armed national troops suddenly stood up from the roofs of civilian houses on the street, in the windows and even in the drainage ditch on the street. These national troops were actually carrying all the flowers and fired down. After a dozen Japanese soldiers were all over the place, they were all over the place. One Japanese soldiers pretended to be dead and tried to secretly sound the alarm while the national army was relaxing their guard. Unfortunately, a veteran of the national army stabbed two bayonets into his heart.

It was not until this time that the more than 500 national prisoners of war finally understood what was going on. However, what was surprising was that the more than 500 national prisoners of war were not excited about being rescued. They just stared blankly at the sudden appearance of the troops, and no one came forward to express their gratitude. Many people even showed hostility to this small army.
