Chapter 59 Silverfish

Six seriously injured people were left behind at the cost of their lives. Xu Shijiu and his team finally successfully escaped from the Japanese army's pursuit and calmly escaped into the streets and alleys of Nanjing's city as complex as a spider web. Along the way, Xu Shijiu and his team encountered several more defeated soldiers. When they moved near the headquarters of the Xinjiekou Gendarmerie Corps, their team had expanded to more than 100 people.

With the explosion, more than one hundred remaining soldiers quickly hid into the houses on both sides of the alley.

Gao Shenxing made a brief argument and said to Xu Shijiu: "It's the explosion without medicine from high explosions. At ten o'clock, if I remember correctly, it should be the headquarters of the Gendarmerie."

As soon as the words were finished, dense gunfire sounded immediately.

"It's the sound of the 38th Great Gallery and the crooked hands." Xu Shijiu's face darkened, and immediately ordered Liao Erwa and Guo Weiquan to say, "Company Commander Liao, Company Commander Guo, you will take thirty brothers from both sides." After Liao, Guo led the troops away, Xu Shijiu ordered Gao Shenxing to say, "Shenxing, you will take ten brothers to stand by on the spot."

The so-called stand-alone on the spot is actually to stay and protect the three women.

Gao Shenxing suddenly became anxious and frowned and said, "Captain, I..."

"Execute the order." Xu Shijiu did not give Gao Shenxing the opportunity to argue at all, and turned around and left.

Yu Jiaxi caught up from behind and shouted concern at Xu Shijiu's back: "Ajiu, be careful."

Xu Shijiu made up his mind to look back, but waved his hand gracefully to Yu Jiaxi, and then his figure soon disappeared into a collapsed house. Yu Jiaxi turned around with a little sadness, but saw Yao Nianci looking at Gao Shenxing with a resentful expression. Gao Shenxing was sitting there like a stone man, just wiping his gun.

Yang Qing flashed half of his body from behind the white marble column, and fired violently in front of him with a flower mechanism. The scorching bullets instantly splashed over like water. Two Japanese soldiers who rushed over with a bayonet fell down instantly. The remaining dozen people quickly turned over and fell to the ground, lifted the 38th hood to shoot at Yang Qing continuously.

Yang Qing dodged back to the back of the white marble pillar. The bullets from Xiaoji Wuben hit the white marble pillars so that stone chips flew everywhere, but Yang Qing's hair was not hurt. The remaining twenty remaining soldiers took the opportunity to get up from the stairs of the headquarters building or the guardrail on the second floor, and opened fire fiercely at the Japanese army with guns.

During the melee, a grenade from Kojimoto hit and landed right next to a remnant soldier. The explosion of the grenade detonated the explosive package of the remnant. The explosive package instantly exploded half of the Gendarmerie Command building. Several remnants hiding behind the corridor on the first floor or the guardrail on the second floor became heroic on the spot.

Xiaoji Wumeng took the opportunity to launch a new round of charge. Seeing that the last line of defense was about to fall, Yang Qing gritted his teeth and was about to pull the fuse of the explosive pack on his body. Suddenly, there was a fierce gunshot behind Xiaoji Wumeng. He listened to it. It turned out that it was the sound of a Czech light machine gun. It was reinforcements, and reinforcements had arrived!

Although Yang Qing couldn't understand why it was this time. There were reinforcements in Nanjing Wucheng, he still keenly captured a fleeting fighter jet. At that time, he shouted at the last dozen remaining soldiers: "Brothers, our reinforcements have arrived, rush, fight with Lao Wuzi..."

The remnants of the military police team were just right. Under the attack of both sides of the Kuomintang army, the Japanese squad responsible for sweeping Xinjiekou quickly collapsed. After leaving more than 20 corpses, more than 40 Japanese soldiers retreated in a hurry along Zhongshan Road. While retreating, Xiao Japanese squad sounded a shrill alarm and asked for reinforcements from friendly forces rushing nearby.

As soon as Xu Shijiu walked into the military police headquarters, he met the remaining soldiers of the number 10 military police. Seeing clearly that the dozen or more soldiers and the leading major officer were wearing explosive bags, Xu Shijiu's pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly. He didn't expect that he would encounter this bloody remnant here.

The leading officer stood at Xu Shijiu and said loudly: "I am the major staff officer of the Gendarmerie Corps, Yang Qing."

Xu Shijiu pulled his dirty and torn uniform and replied: "Captain, Captain, the Independent Brigade of the 19th Independent Brigade of the 58th Division of the 74th Army of the National Revolutionary Army, Xu Shijiu."

"So it's Chief Xu." Yang Qing accepted the military salute and then squeezed a smile on his face, "Sir Xu, thank you."

"Why are you polite? We are both brothers from the national army, so it is appropriate to help each other." Xu Shijiu smiled and said, "What's more, we should be together now, and live and die together."

"It's well said that until now, the defense battle in Nanjing has only one hundred and ten thousand troops left. If we don't work together, it would be inappropriate." Yang Qing looked at the remnants of the National Army who appeared behind Xu Shijiu and said, "Brothers, I'm afraid they haven't taken a bath for a long time, have you had a full meal?"

The eyes of the hundred or so soldiers behind Xu Shijiu suddenly lit up.

Yang Qing smiled and said loudly: "Come in, brothers, come in. The Gendarmerie Command has ready-made hot water, canned beef imported from the United States, and red wine imported from France."

Meeting Xu Shijiu's puzzled look, Yang Qing explained: "Sir Xu doesn't know that these are war preparation supplies. Because the garrison headquarters' retreat order was too urgent, all the war preparation supplies were not in time to be transferred. Instead of being cheap, it would be better to take them out and distribute them to the brothers for food and drink. The brothers had enough food and drink to fight the Japanese, haha."

Xu Shijiu was not pretentious and turned his head to the remaining soldiers No. 100 behind him and shouted: "Brothers, why don't you thank Staff Yang?"

Guo Weiquan, Liao Erwa and the remaining soldiers of the Bailai clan opened their mouths and shouted at Yang Qing in a loud voice: "Thank you, Staff Yang, to treat you very well."

#############

Koji Wuben's reinforcements arrived soon, but they did not dare to launch an attack after dark.

It was late at night and when Xu Shijiu was carrying two bottles of red wine onto the rooftop, Gao Shenxing squatted behind the water tower, putting his gun on the rooftop guardrail, and was constantly watching the whistle ahead through the scope on the gun. Hearing the footsteps behind him, Gao Shenxing turned around and pointed the gun at Xu Shijiu instantly.

"You boy." Xu Shijiu smiled bitterly, "Beware of the fire."

Gao Shenxing lowered his muzzle and whispered: "Captain, why are you here?"

Xu Shijiuyang Yangyang held two bottles of red wine in his hand and said, "Are you afraid that you will freeze, so I brought you two bottles of wine to drive away the cold." After that, Xu Shijiu took out two canned beef from his arms like a magic trick, and smiled, "And this one, I just soaked in boiling water, it's hot."

Gao Shenxing took the red wine and opened the bottle plug. He tilted his neck and took a big sip. Xu Shijiu also scalded the red wine with boiling water. He drank it warm in his stomach, which was very enjoyable.

Xu Shijiu used a bayonet to lift the cover of the canned beef and handed it over. Gao Shenxing took it and poured half of the can into his mouth. Seeing Gao Shenxing having a feast, Xu Shijiu couldn't help but sigh: "You guy is a good thing. This is an authentic Raphie. Many celebrities in Shanghai can't drink it. Today we are cheaper."

Gao Shen ran away and sneered: "We have sold our lives to the Party and the country, Raphael is nothing."

Xu Shijiu smiled and whispered: "But I just entered the combat preparation warehouse of the military police headquarters, which really scared me. There was not much military supplies in the warehouse, and there were cans, red wine, cigarettes, etc. but they were piled up like mountains. The military commander of the military police corps should really be pulled out and shot. I spent money not to buy military supplies, but I just bought luxury goods.

Gao Shenxing curled his lips and sneered: "It's all about reselling and making money.

After a moment of pause, Gao Shenxing said again: "But Captain, the person who did this is not the Military Control Commissioner of the Military Control Commissioner of the Military Control Commission. The Military Control Commission was like a barrel run by Gu Zhenglun. If a small Military Control Commissioner dared to hoard supplies on his back, he would have been shot by Gu Zhenglun for a long time."

Xu Shijiu said: "You mean, this is all done by Gu Zhenglun?"

Gao Shenxing said: "It is not only the military police, the Ministry of Transportation, the Ministry of Hydropower, the Nanjing Security Command, and the Central Military Academy Teaching Corps. All the military and political officials do this. Even the senior officials of the Ministry of Military Affairs are reselling. Why can't the military supply of the troops be supplied in the final stage of the Battle of Shanghai? It's really because of the tight finance?"

"Actually, that's just a fool. No matter how tight the finances are, can you still lack the money to buy a few tons of arms? It's not because the money that should have been used to buy arms was used to buy cotton yarn, red wine, etc., so when the above questioned, he said that the warehouse was full of military supplies, but the military supplies were gone as soon as the war broke out."

Xu Shijiu was silent. He thought of Sun Yuanliang, the commander of the 88th Division. When the 88th Division had just arrived in Shanghai to participate in the war, many of the materials had been donated by all walks of life in Shanghai, but most of these materials were sent to the French concession by Sun Yuanliang, and all the proceeds were put into Sun Yuanliang's private pockets.

Xu Shijiu said: "How did you know these?"

Gao Shenxing said: "If you stay in Nanjing for a few years, you will know that because these people are too rampant, they are so rampant that they are reluctant to do the least amount of time to cover up. In their eyes, the state's public instruments and military armed forces are tools they use to make profits, that's all."

Xu Shijiu was speechless, he didn't want to express any opinions on this.

Gao Shenxing was a little drunk, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he was out of control. He continued: "I originally thought that this was just a temporary chaos. When Chiang Kai-shek stabilized his position as the leader in the military and political circles, he would free up his hands to deal with these party and state worms, but I was wrong. In the end, I realized that Chiang Kai-shek was the biggest party and state worms!"
