"Xiao Bing! Didn't you follow your father and take the ship to Songhu this morning to join a distant relative of Commander Zhou, the heavy commander of the Air Force? Why are you still here?"
"No! Xiaoling! The time has been delayed. The foreigners' cruise ship is late. Because the side of Peking is occupied by the Japanese army, the foreigners are also worried about the situation on the side of Tianjin City. They will not be able to leave until tomorrow.
But have you seen it now? The Japanese army’s Dongjuzi Airport suffered a night air raid!”
"I saw it! I was shocked by such a sudden air raid and the explosion, as well as my family and the neighbors. Even now I can see that the entire foreign public settlement citizens are all shocked.
I was frightened by the sudden sound of air raid explosions! I don’t know where the night flying troops came from to conduct air raids and bombings!”
"Well! Although my family and I were also shocked, we thought it was a Japanese flying force coming to air raid the public concession in Tianjin City! But now that I have gone out and watched it for a while, I feel that it is a Japanese aircraft group coming to air raid.
It was the Japanese airfield that was bombed by air raids! So I felt relaxed and relieved! If these damn Japanese troops hadn't invaded and occupied the Peiping side, my family and I wouldn't have moved to Song.
We are evacuating to a place so far away from Shanghai!"
"The Songhu side is also good! I heard that that side is very prosperous and lively. It is much more modern than our Tianjin city and Peking city! There are many high-rise buildings and all kinds of the latest modern public facilities.
Yes! There are movie theaters and entertainment venues! I really want to go! And now that Peiping has fallen, I don’t know if Tianjin City can be defended! Once the average annual army per capita comes here,
I don’t know what’s going on!”
"It's hard to say! Our entire Tianjin city seems to only have more than 5,000 troops from the 38th Division of the 29th Route Army, and even the foreign troops in the foreign public concession are not that much! Compared with the Japanese army,
There is still a big gap, but the only peace of mind is that you and I are living in the foreign concession, not outside in Tianjin City! Otherwise, once the Japanese army comes over and takes over Tianjin City, I am afraid we will suffer.
I heard from the students who escaped from Peiping and the refugees that the Japanese troops who broke into the city burned, killed, looted and committed all kinds of evil. Many civilians were tortured by them, especially young and beautiful women, and they had a miserable end.
Very good!”
"Well, don't say these scary things. In fact, I also know it, so I am also very scared. It's just that my father has no intention of leaving here, and I have no choice! Otherwise, I would like to go to Songshan with you.
Where can I take refuge in Shanghai and get some exposure?"
"It's not easy to leave Songhu now! Because we don't know whether we will be attacked or blocked by the Japanese fleet at the port or at sea!"
"Probably not! You are on a foreign cruise ship! The Japanese army should not dare to provoke the foreign powers now!"
"I hope so! Otherwise, I am afraid that my family and I will not be able to reach Songhu! And even if we reach Songhu, we will have to start from scratch, although our family and the air force commander are not
We are distant relatives, but they may not necessarily give us much care! Because the difference between our family and theirs is too big!"
"As long as I can leave here and don't have to worry about the danger of the Japanese army attacking, it's already good! At least it's much better and safer than me and my family!"
The Japanese troops at the Dongjuzi Airport of the Japanese Army, and the Japanese aircraft group, were dispatched by Zhou Wenhua to a group of Mosquito NF Mk.II night bombers, a Do 215B night fighter group, and a "Lancaster" heavy bomber group.
There were flames everywhere after the bombing, and after the ruins,
Among the citizens of the foreign public concession who were alarmed,
Two female students also gathered together and were discussing.
They are Chen Xiaobing and Guo Xiaoling.
She is a citizen living in the foreign public concession and a female student studying in the foreign school there.
