Chapter 174 There should be no regrets!
Hu Biao, who had formed a shame-abuse camp, knew very well that the wounded people in this era were extremely unfortunate. If there was no perfect logistical support, being injured on the battlefield would be almost the same as killing, and even if it would be even more miserable.
Many prisoners of war rescued earlier had reacted to Hu Biao. The Japanese army often used bayonets to kill the wounded soldiers of the Anti-Japanese War troops on the battlefield, or used these wounded soldiers to train the new recruits to be brave.
Unless these wounded people are very important, they can be treated by the Japanese army. Otherwise, the Japanese army rarely use valuable medicine to treat captured prisoners of war. Many times, these injured prisoners of war will be abused until death.
Even on the battlefield of the Battle of Song and Shanghai earlier, Hu Biao saw the seriously injured soldiers with his own eyes and begged his comrades to make up for them. The reason was that he did not want to fall into the hands of the Japanese, and there were very few wounded people who could actually get treatment.
The wounded people who are now living in the Presidential Palace actually know what the outcome they are about to face. But they also understand that compared to being abandoned, their situation is already very good now, and at least they can achieve a brief peace.
Hu Biao, who took time to inspect these wounded people, also showed great affection and did not act as an air of a commander. Even when chatting with the lightly injured people, Hu Biao even sent the cigarettes he brought to these soldiers who were not very good at smoking.
Talking about family matters and talking about things outside of war, the ward, which made the atmosphere a little depressed, quickly became cheerful. When a wounded asked, "Sir, why don't you break through?"
"I am the commander, how can I break through? I can't leave until the end. I'm leaving, what do you do?"
"Sir, you are a good person!"
Listening to the comments of the wounded soldiers, Hu Biao smiled and shook his head and said, "Good people in this world don't live long! In the eyes of others, I guess I am a butcher covered in blood with my hands. If I am really a good person, I should find a way to send you away.
It’s a pity that my ability is limited and I can’t do it. However, you are all good, no bears! When the Japanese attackers come again after dawn, you will fight hard and try to kill one or two more Japanese to death.”
"Sir, we will!"
When Hu Biao chatted with the wounded, Lin Yashi, who was responsible for taking care of the wounded, also felt that Hu Biao was a little different. According to the officers she had come into contact with, most of the officers she was unwilling to stay with the soldiers, let alone such approachable chats.
When she was in the military camp, she had heard many people say something about Hu Biao. She knew that when other guards were desperately breaking out of the city, Hu Biao only led his men into the city, intending to hold on to the last moment in the Presidential Palace.
When Hu Biao was about to leave, Lin Yashi suddenly said, "Sir, can you send me a spear?"
When Hu Biao heard Lin Yashi's inquiry, he said unexpectedly: "Miss Lin, don't you have a pistol? Why do you need a spear?"
"I also want to go to the battlefield to fight the Japanese. I want to avenge my parents!"
Looking at the girl who was tired and still couldn't hide her beautiful appearance and figure, Hu Biao thought for a while and said, "Can you shoot?"
"Yes! My elder brother taught me!"
"Okay! I'll have someone give you a long spear tomorrow, thank you for taking care of the wounded. If possible, I will try to ensure your safety. Although I have always believed that war should let women leave, I know that some women are no worse than men!"
After saying this, Hu Biao did not continue to stay, but quickly left the yard where the wounded soldiers were resting. While it was still some time before dawn, Hu Biao came to Yuanlin, located in the Presidential Palace, and checked the anti-aircraft cannons placed inside again.
Seeing Hu Biao appear here, the officer responsible for operating anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft guns also said directly: "Sir, will the Japanese devils bomb us tomorrow?"
"It's very likely! In short, remember what I told you about your combat strategy before. I don't ask you to wipe out all the Japanese fighter jets. Even if we shoot one or two fighter jets, our previous hard work will not be in vain. Remember, you must be surprised!"
"Yes! Please rest assured, sir. As per your instructions, we have disguised both the anti-aircraft guns and the machine guns. As long as the Japanese planes dare to come, we will definitely beat them down. Even if we die, we will never retreat a step!"
"Well, you need such courage! There is still some time before dawn, so take a good rest! After dawn, let the brothers have breakfast quickly and then stay in the forest to rest and stand by. If you don't see the plane, you are not allowed to enter the position!"
"Yes, sir!"
In order to fight this defensive and blocking battle, Hu Biao used the local military commander, the local tyrant, to pull the weapons and artillery that the defending troops did not take away by the city to the Presidential Palace. Even in the gardens of the Presidential Palace, dozens of air-defense guns of various types were piled up.
Although these weapons may not be visible even if the Japanese seized them. But for Hu Biao, he did not want these weapons to fall into the hands of the Japanese. Even when receiving anti-aircraft artillery earlier, Hu Biao also took some of them.
At present, a large amount of weapons and ammunition has been piled up in his personal storage space. Maybe it won’t be used now, but Hu Biao believes that the weapons stored in the space will be used sooner or later.
Especially for the machine gun that can shoot flat fire, Hu Biao also stored several pieces and collected a lot of ammunition. This machine gun was used for air defense or armored tanks, and it was also powerful, and it was even more brutal and terrifying to fight infantry.
If the Japanese don’t want to use human lives, then using the air force to cooperate in combat is the most reasonable choice. This also means that as long as the weather is good tomorrow, the Japanese will definitely use aircraft to cooperate with the ground troops to fight.
The several air defense positions deployed in the garden were also the preparations made by Hu Biao for air defense in advance. This alone would definitely not work, but with these air defense positions, the Japanese planes would not dare to be too rampant.
At least the bombers sent are not afraid to carry out low-altitude bombing. If they are bombing at high altitude, it is still a bit difficult to accurately throw air shells into the presidential palace. The bombers these days are not as advanced as those in later generations!
Hu Biao, who checked the defense arrangements around the Presidential Palace and returned to the command room, also said at the right time: "Er Shuan, it's so late, you go and rest for a while, I'll stay in the command center. I'll call you if you have any questions."
"Captain, you can take a break, you haven't had a good rest these days!"
If the officers and soldiers of the other Death Soldiers camp were tired, then the person who was the most tired must be Hu Biao. Since arriving in Jinling, Hu Biao has almost never rested. As a personal guard, Huang Ershuan naturally hopes that Hu Biao will also take a rest.
In response to Huang Ershuan's persuasion, Hu Biao smiled and said, "Well! I know, I'll take a look at the command center later!"
From traveling through this time and space to participating in the Battle of Jinling that is coming to an end, Hu Biao can no longer remember how many Japanese killed. But Hu Biao can at least confirm that the Japanese killed during this period are more targets and enemies than the previous life.
The establishment of the Avenge Camp and the Dead Soldier Camp and annihilate so many Japanese devils should have affected history to some extent. But from the overall situation of the War of Resistance Against Japan, Hu Biao believes that the general situation cannot be changed and this war will continue.
Thinking that tomorrow might not last until dark, Hu Biao smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "Sometimes I think about it, I seem quite stupid!"
In the eyes of others, leave it for usefulness, and Hu Biao can annihilate more Japanese devils in the future. But Hu Biao knew that even though he knew that the human tragedy would happen, Hu Biao really couldn't sit idly by and did his best to save more innocent people.
Perhaps these rescued people don’t know who they should thank the most. But Hu Biao believes that when people from later generations mentioned the Battle of Jinling, their deeds about him and the Jinling Dead Soldier Camp will be remembered forever.
Although he hadn't had a long rest, Hu Biao found that he was not sleepy at all. He lit a cigarette, but his thoughts traveled through time and recalled his past and present life. Even if he had not been in this time and space for a long time, Hu Biao still felt like a passerby.
After extinguishing the cigarette in his hand, Hu Biao smiled and said, "Why should I sigh before the end of my life? Even if I can't stand this disaster, I shouldn't have any regrets. It's not anyone, I have the same luck as me!"
Hu Biao, who was able to witness and participate in the War of Resistance with his own eyes, felt very honored as a soldier of the Republic. Later Chinese soldiers always remained vigilant and hatred towards the Japanese army, but rarely had the opportunity to truly compete with the Japanese army.
It is indeed worthy of thanks to Hu Biao's chance to experience the War of Resistance and bring a group of brave men to fight with the Japanese army. If those comrades in his previous life knew his current experience, they would probably be envious and jealous!
Just as Hu Biao recalled his past and present life, Zheng Jingwu, who had been staying next to the radio station, looked at the radio station that was flashing again, and quickly put on his headphones, listening and recording the radio code sent by the outside world.
After the record was over, looking at the translated content, Zheng Jingwu also said excitedly: "That's great! Brother Zhao and the others really broke through the siege. Now they should be safe!"
Zheng Jingwu did not feel any regrets when he was left to serve as a telegrapher. For him, if Hu Biao had not rescued him from the prisoner-of-war camp, I was afraid that he would have long known whether he would have died or lived.
With the telegram sent by Zhao Xian, who was breaking through with Liu Guotong's headquarters, Zheng Jingwu quickly came to the command center. Seeing Hu Biao, who was staying at the command center to ponder, he said in a low voice: "Report!"
Hu Biao, who was interrupted by his thoughts, looked up and saw Zheng Jingwu standing at the door, and smiled and said, "Xiao Wu, come in!"
"Sir, Lieutenant Zhao sent a telegram, they have arrived in Purple Gold Mountain safely!"
"Have you been outstanding? OK! It seems that my decision is right. I really caught the Japanese off guard after breaking through the siege at night. I took the telegram to me and see it. By the way, is there any situation on the platoon leader Xu and the others?"
"No!"
"Let's go to the telegraph room! Let's have a good contact while it's still time before dawn. If the breakout teams can successfully meet, even if the Japanese send troops to intercept them, I believe they have the power to fight."
Breaking through to Zijin Mountain is just the first step to break through, and it cannot be said to be safe. Only by arriving in the area controlled by the National Army can they be truly safe. This means that the road behind is still full of dangers!
