Chapter 131 Return to the city
"Teaching Corps!!" Li Chengqian's pores stood up instantly! !
The only troop on the battlefield that can fight the devils one for one
The elite Nationalist troops who defended Purple Mountain to the death and finally died in battle! !
This battle was the last glory of the Teaching Corps.
After this battle, the Teaching Corps withdrew from the stage of history, and there is no Teaching Corps in the world anymore!!
But how come they are here?
"Hello, we are under the command of Captain Xie Jinyuan of the 88th Division, and I am Li Chengqian!!"
Zhou Zhenqiang was stunned: "Xie Jinyuan from the Sihang Warehouse! Is there still resistance in the city?"
"Yes, although the Japanese have already entered the city, the 88th, 36th, and 87th divisions, including the young and strong men in the city, are still resisting to buy time to cover the retreat of the people."
Zhou Zhenqiang was instantly inspired after hearing this: "Great, great, brothers, Jinling is still here, our mission is not yet complete, our persistence is meaningful, fight to the end, fight to the end!!"
"Fight to the end, fight to the end!!"
After boosting morale, Zhou Zhenqiang then turned his attention to the armor on Li Chengqian and others.
And the fighting power that Li Chengqian just displayed when he jumped up and down between the tanks was simply incredible!
"What are you wearing..."
Li Chengqian said perfunctorily: "Now is not the time to talk about this. Is there anyone among us who knows Japanese? Let's first ask who this bastard is."
Li Chengqian threw the Japanese officer in his hand heavily to the ground.
puff! !
He spat out a mouthful of blood, but he was not dead.
"Yes, I have several people here who know Japanese."
Zhou Zhenqiang found a soldier and asked him questions.
After some inquiries, it turned out that this was indeed a pine tree root!
Li Chengqian stepped forward again and took a closer look. Why was he not the same person as the one in the portrait of Song Jin Shigen that he had seen before?
"No, I've seen Song Jin Shigen before, but this guy is definitely not Song Jin Shigen!!"
Zhou Zhenqiang was stunned: "Have you seen Song Jinshigen!!"
Li Chengqian did not answer, but instead slapped the Japanese officer in the face: "Don't tell the truth!!"
puff! !
The Japanese officer spat out two teeth: "Baga!"
"Baga your sister!"
clap clap clap!
After several slaps, the Japanese officer's face quickly swelled up, and tears, snot, and blood flowed.
Under threat, the Japanese officer finally confessed his identity.
This man is the commander of the 10th Division of the Japanese 6th Army, Lieutenant General Tani Hisao.
The purpose of his trip was to supervise the battle at the front line and carry out the order issued by Song Jinshigen to capture Nanjing overnight.
"Ask him where Songjin Shigen is!" Li Chengqian threw Gu Shoufu to the ground again.
After asking the soldiers, Li Chengqian learned that Songjin Shigen was 100 kilometers away in the southeast of Jinling.
It is obviously impossible to carry out the decapitation plan at such a long distance.
Fortunately, by capturing Tani Hisao, we were able to complete the plan of preventing the Japanese from taking over Nanjing overnight.
Without Tani Hisao's command, the Japanese troops attacking Jinling City would definitely stop the attack after nightfall.
This gave the people in the city one night to evacuate.
Li Chengqian looked at the surrendering devils and said, "Kill them all, take their equipment, and let's go back to the city!!"
"What about this?"
Cheng Yaojin Gu Shoufu asked.
Li Chengqian chuckled, stepped forward and stepped on Bakutani Hisao's head.
"Keep them for the New Year? Kill them all."
Zhou Zhenqiang and the officers and soldiers of the Teaching Corps were secretly shocked!
Stomping their heads, the power of these people...
Horror!
After killing the Japanese on the spot, the group got in the car and returned to Jinling City in a swagger.
There was even a tank that had not been destroyed by Li Chengqian. It was driven by several soldiers from the Teaching Corps and slowly followed at the end of the convoy.
Cheng Yaojin, Hou Junji and a few others finally had time to rest. They lay in the back of the troop transport truck, eating the Japanese rations and crossing their legs, feeling so comfortable.
The wounds on their bodies were also recovering rapidly during this rare rest time.
With a strong physique, when there is sufficient energy, the hematopoietic function will work at full capacity.
The pale complexion of several people, which had been caused by excessive blood loss, was gradually getting better.
The price is a bit of waste of food!
The officers and soldiers of the Teaching Corps who were in the same car stared blankly at these big-bellied men. Their task was to help dismantle the Japanese marching rations.
And the speed must be fast, otherwise it will not be able to keep up with the consumption speed of others.
It's really scary.
On the other side, Li Chengqian was driving an off-road vehicle with Zhou Zhenqiang sitting in the passenger seat.
After Zhou Zhenqiang's narration, he roughly understood the process of the Battle of Purple Mountain.
Purple Mountain is located in the northeast of Jinling. It is 448 meters high and covers an area of 31 square kilometers. It is the gateway to Jinling.
By occupying Purple Mountain, we can look down on the entire city of Jinling.
There is an old saying since ancient times that purple gold will be burned and Nanjing will fall.
To this end, the Teaching Corps, which had the most complete organization and the strongest combat effectiveness in the Battle of Nanjing, took on the important task of defending Purple Mountain.
However, after experiencing the brutal Battle of Shanghai, the Teaching Corps was not fully staffed at this time, with only six regiments of troops, a little over 10,000 people.
After several days of fierce fighting, the teaching regiment suffered heavy casualties. Under the attack of the Japanese planes and artillery, they still held their positions.
Until the afternoon of the 12th, when Nanjing fell, the Japanese still failed to occupy Purple Mountain.
At this time, they also received Tang Shengzhi's telegram of retreat, and the national army stationed in Nanjing began to retreat.
However, the teaching corps on the Zijin Mountain position still held its ground.
Historically, until the complete fall of Nanjing on the 13th, the sound of gunfire could still be heard from Purple Mountain.
The Japanese had to admire the tenacious resistance of the Chinese soldiers.
The Tokyo Asahi Shimbun reported on December 1937, 12: "Our troops who occupied Purple Mountain confirmed that there were still quite a number of defeated soldiers in the positions on the top and the mountainside. The Chinese soldiers did not retreat a single step, but fought to the death, sacrificing their lives to defend Purple Mountain and the dignity of the country!"
The Japanese army history "The Ninth Division War History" also wrote: "Although the enemy troops occupying Purple Mountain were enemies, they were indeed very brave. They fought to the last man. They knew that the result would definitely be death, but they still resisted stubbornly and bravely blocked our army's attack."
During the Battle of Nanjing, due to a variety of objective factors, the national army failed to defend its capital.
But the Battle of Purple Mountain demonstrated the dignity of Chinese soldiers.
Of course, these are all historical trajectories.
Now, Li Chengqian is here.
Although the gate of Jinling has been lost, the defenders in the city are still there, and the young and strong men are still there!
Zijin Mountain is located on a high ground, and one can use a telescope to see the situation inside the city, and also see the scene of the city gate being breached.
Therefore, the teaching corps, which was still resisting, temporarily formed a reinforced battalion of 500 people, led by Zhou Zhenqiang, handed them the best weapons, and went to Jinling for support.
Unexpectedly, they met Li Chengqian and others on the way and ambushed the Japanese convoy.
In other words, there are still officers and soldiers of the Teaching Corps in Zijin Mountain who are still holding their positions. They will never retreat until the last man standing!
