I really came here to fight against Japan

Chapter 71: Fighting the Japanese Invaders, "8" Men Are Willing to Die

(Some readers may not like these two chapters today. But after all, I wrote them while crying. I hope you can tolerate the author.)

Hearing the "Moses Moses" coming from the phone, the Municipal Council said that they wanted to find the commander of the Japanese Expeditionary Force.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, I heard another loud noise from the phone, and then the call was disconnected.

Then a muffled sound came from outside the window of the Municipal Council.

Everyone hurriedly looked out the window again, towards the direction of the Japanese military headquarters.

I saw a black smoke rising rapidly, and a black mushroom cloud formed above the Japanese headquarters.

Then came the sound of the air raid sirens, rang out over the Shanghai Bund.

"What's going on? Send someone to check it out. What happened?"

The series of events caused chaos in the Municipal Council meeting hall.

Soon, someone passed various news back to the Concession Municipal Council.

"Gentlemen, we have just received news that a huge explosion occurred at the Japanese Shanghai Expeditionary Force Headquarters.

The Japanese military headquarters building has now become a ruin.

The Japanese are now outside the building, actively organizing rescue operations.

However, according to eyewitnesses, the chance of survival for people in the building is... equal to zero.

Also, this should not be caused by air force or artillery attacks.

The consequences of an explosion of this scale should be similar to that of a demolition explosion.

Only if there are a lot of explosives buried under the building can such an effect be achieved."

The Japanese blockaded downtown Shanghai and launched a massive manhunt.

The Municipal Council did not immediately inform the Japanese about the disappearance of the national troops in the concentration camp.

Because the Municipal Council mobilized all its personnel to conduct security checks on its office buildings and villas.

This is too scary. The Chinese deliberately installed explosives under the Japanese's buttocks without making any noise.

Couldn’t they also place explosives in their Municipal Council?

Fortunately, it turned out to be a false alarm, but the Japanese were not so lucky.

The commander-in-chief of the Japanese Shanghai Expeditionary Force luckily escaped the disaster because he was leading his troops out for inspection.

But the staff and all the personnel of the telecommunications department remained at the headquarters.

All of them, including the commander's own big wolfhound, were sent back to their hometown in Japan.

It was not until the afternoon of the next day that the Japanese army learned that the national troops in the concession were missing.

At this time, more than 400 national army soldiers had evacuated to a safe area hundreds of miles away through secret passages.

Song Wenwan then sent a telegram to the whole country to welcome the eight hundred warriors home, and held a welcome banquet in Xi'an.

Yes, Song Wenwan brought all the rescued people to Xi'an.

Who wouldn't like such good soldiers with strong willpower and good fighting skills? Why should they be given to the Central Army?

These rescued soldiers were also willing to join the Gan Detachment.

Who made them abandoned by their superiors when they were in Shanghai?

It doesn't matter where you fight the Japanese, so wouldn't it be better to follow your savior and fight the Japs together?

Moreover, judging from the equipment, the weapons and equipment of the Xigan coalition forces are better than those of the Central Army.

The rifles were all semi-automatic, the light machine guns were on duty, the heavy machine guns were in the lower platoon, and the mortars were assigned to the company.

They were also wondering why the Xigan coalition had such strong military power.

But they didn't show up on the battlefield in Shanghai?

After hearing this, Brother Nine sighed helplessly and pointed to the "Eighth Office" across the street from the "West Office".

He said: "Our main task in the war zone is to keep a close eye on the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side."

Song Wenwan wanted to keep these anti-Japanese heroes who survived the battlefield.

He specially pulled a mixed regiment from the Xigan Allied Forces' training ground.

As for the characteristics of this mixed group, there are a little more Communist Party members in it.

He also handed over all the new recruits just recruited from Xi'an, and finally gave him the designation of the Shanxi Guerrilla Column, the First Guerrilla Army, with Commander Xie as the commander.

The current Captain Xie has been promoted directly from lieutenant colonel to colonel.

He is qualified to be the commander of this newly formed guerrilla army of 10,000 people.

At the beginning, many people in the newly formed army were not very willing to serve under Commander Xie.

Until the day the guerrilla army was formed, Song Wenwan did not ask Captain Xie to give a high-spirited speech.

Instead, they showed them an open-air movie, "Eight Hundred"...

In this movie, the Nationalist troops defending Shanghai retreated, but the "Eight Hundred" Nationalist warriors refused to retreat.

They relied on sturdy warehouses and had their backs on the concession that the Japanese army dared not provoke.

Captain Xie and his men fought off the fierce attacks of the Japanese devils time and time again.

Every time the Japanese retreated, there were warm cheers from the soldiers and civilians watching the movie.

Every time an anti-Japanese fighter died, there were voices of regret from the audience.

The cold-blooded "Knife" died heroically while delivering telephone lines to the warriors.

Countless men of letters and scholars could not help but praise: It is never necessary to ask where a hero comes from!

The national flag that the Boy Scout risked his life to deliver at night was flying above the warehouse every day.

Countless moviegoers shouted: Our soldiers are still fighting and our nation has not fallen!

When the Japs attacked the outer walls of the warehouse and tried to blow them up.

One after another, the anti-Japanese fighters lined up without hesitation, with grenades wrapped around their bodies.

While shouting their own names, they lit the fuse and jumped down to die together with others.

"Line up the machine gun company and blow these bastards to death..."

"Tied tightly... I am Li Mancang from Tongcheng, Hubei..."

"boom"!

"Next……"

"My child is unfilial..."

"boom"!

"Wang Jindou from Liuyang, Hunan..." "Boom!"

Every time the warriors signed up without fear of life and death, there was a huge explosion from cluster grenades.

Some warriors even died heroically after detonating their grenades before they could even report their names.

At this scene, all the soldiers and civilians in the audience had already burst into tears.

Those warriors who returned from Shanghai also thought of their sacrificed comrades and burst into tears!

In the movie theater in Wuhan, the heads of the Ministry of National Defense were also watching this movie.

Some were still whispering, “Alas, it seems that the colonel gave too low a reward.

From now on, he is also a national hero, why not promote him to major general tomorrow!"

The people around him also said, "It's still that Song Wenwan, she has good taste in people!

Not only did he rescue the man from the concession, he also helped him organize a guerrilla army.

The two of them will complement each other in the future, and their future is limitless."

In a cinema in the Shanghai Concession, the theater owner showed this film despite pressure from the Japanese.

As for the opinion of the Concession Municipal Council, just wait and see. If you can make money, why not transfer it yourself?

In the cinema, while everyone was watching the movie, they were secretly looking at the person sitting in the middle of the theater.

He is the "gentleman" in the movie who called on the Green Gang members to deliver telephone lines to the National Army, right?

Looking from the side, the actor called "Director Feng Ye" in the movie and the person sitting in the middle look really alike!

Before the movie was over, the man whispered to his men, "Give orders that none of my disciples are allowed to join the Japanese.

Otherwise, I will be expelled from the sect with three swords and six holes!"
