Although the Japanese army, which was licking its wounds, did not completely stop, it continued to deploy troops and generals.
The roar of tank engines came faintly from the distance, and a large number of engineers entered the battlefield continuously, starting to build field ring fortifications from more than 500 meters away.
The Chinese defenders inside the building were naturally not idle either. Some were repairing the incomplete fortifications in the building, and some were collecting the bodies of the three comrades who died in today's battle after the battle.
Their bloody faces and bodies were washed with water from the Suzhou River, and their no longer warm bodies were wrapped in the white cloth they carried.
Inside the building, excluding the soldiers on guard, the remaining 300 officers and soldiers, including the wounded soldiers wrapped in bandages, lined up in rows to bid farewell to their brothers in silence.
According to the Army Lieutenant Colonel, since he and the others wanted to persist here until all the ammunition and food were exhausted and all the men were exhausted, there was no need to go to too much trouble and they could just dig open the floor on the first floor and dig out the tomb.
Not only will these three soldiers who died in battle be buried here, in the future, this will also be the burial place for the 1st Battalion of the 524th Regiment, including him, the lieutenant colonel.
Of course Tang Dao knows the direction of history. In less than four days, those big shots will be unable to withstand the pressure from the Western world and force the defenders of Sihang Warehouse to retreat. Not only will not all the people here die in battle, but all the victims will
His remains will also be taken away.
However, Tang Dao did not stop the soldiers from their seemingly useless digging. He suddenly remembered an extremely important piece of information.
It seems that when he visited the Sihang Warehouse in the future, a commentator mentioned the existence of a basement under the Sihang Warehouse, which should have been a place specially used to store valuable collateral when it was originally designed as a treasury.
But there was no mention of the basement in the battle report of the Sihang Warehouse. Perhaps, we can find a new direction for this seemingly dead-end battlefield from here?
Moreover, looking at the busy figures of the Japanese engineers in the field of vision, Tang Dao felt blessed in his soul.
Although the stubborn rut of history has not been changed, the arrival of this little butterfly still changed the seemingly unimportant patterns in the rut.
The Battle of Sihang Warehouse is very different from what it once was.
In the previous Battle of Sihang Warehouse, which lasted for three days and four nights, the casualties were only twenty, and nearly two hundred Japanese soldiers were killed and wounded. However, unlike this time, two to three hundred Japanese soldiers were killed in one battle, and the total result was over four.
Number of hundreds.
Einstein once said that there are countless timelines, and every choice people make will make your life go on an unrepeatable path, and then be included in the long river of time.
In other words, from the moment Tang Dao showed up here who was not materialistic at all, the Battle of Si Xing Warehouse was no longer the battle that Tang Dao knew.
Then, the Japanese army will definitely make different tactical choices.
The Sihang Warehouse Building was like a city to the Japanese troops who were encircling it from three sides.
Facing such a fortified city, what would the Japanese army do?
Tang Dao did not dare to neglect and reported his thoughts to the Army Lieutenant Colonel.
After quickly arranging the matters at hand, the Army Lieutenant Colonel immediately held a headquarters meeting and ordered Tang Dao to serve as the general commander of the firepower and fortification construction in the warehouse building. He was responsible for the construction of new fortifications and the adjustment of firepower points in the building.
The first battalion currently has no engineers. All soldiers, except for the wounded, must follow Tang Dao's deployment and participate in the construction of fortifications.
With this command authority, Tang Dao took drastic measures. He first arranged for an infantry platoon to excavate and survey the ground on the first floor, and then sent three infantry platoons to widen the trench fortifications outside the warehouse and continue to dig outwards.
There is a sense of comparison with the Japanese army, which also carried out large-scale construction and digging trenches.
Both the Chinese and Japanese armies were sweating profusely as they fought against the dirt.
But on the afternoon of October 27, when the battlefield suddenly became a little quiet, under the land and sky of Songhu Zhabei, the sweating soldiers of both sides were not the protagonists.
The protagonist is the owner of this land and sky - the Chinese.
The Chinese defenders won the decisive battle in the afternoon. Later, news came from the hospital that the lives of the two brave women who played the drums and sang were expected to be fine. The terrifying penetration of the 6.5mm Tomosaka bullets will
The body was penetrated by one blow, which actually reduced the damage caused by the deformation and flipping of the warhead.
Before the two women were sent to the hospital, the hospital, which received news from a certain force, assembled the most advanced medical staff in the concession, and finally no regrets happened.
The already excited people were completely boiling.
Under the organization of young students, they sang the "March of the Volunteers!" composed by famous lyricist Tian Han and composer Nie Er in April 1935 over and over again!
“Rise up! People who don’t want to be slaves!
Build our new Great Wall with our flesh and blood!
The Chinese nation is at its most critical moment, and everyone is forced to make one last roar.
Get up! Get up! Get up!
We are united as one, brave the enemy's artillery fire, and advance! Brave the enemy's artillery fire, advance! Advance! Advance, advance!"
Throughout the afternoon, the heroic and exciting singing spread like waves throughout Da Songhu.
In the concession, the men and women sitting among a pile of luggage and looking at the bustling street opposite but with dull eyes were startled by the singing. They were at a loss at first, listened for a long time, and then gradually stood up from the ground, and their eyes gradually lit up.
In the concession, there was a pot of tea on the table, an old man with a book in his hand but his eyebrows furrowed and his face heavy. He was also startled by the singing. He stood up silently and walked to the window. He listened for a long time and murmured along with the song. His tears were glistening and his face was dull.
Gradually become peaceful and happy.
In the concession, those middle-aged men sitting around restaurants and theaters leaning against the red and green trees, wearing suits and leather shoes or brocade robes, were also startled by the singing. They stood up suddenly and walked out of the building. In their once serious eyes,
Under the sun, it shines brightly.
In the concession, there were more young people wearing Chinese tunic suits. They just stood on the street, crying like rain, and singing along.
...
At this moment, people with black hair, black eyes, and yellow skin, whether they were dressed in bright clothes or in rags, slowly poured into the streets, listening to the distant thunderous singing, looking at the north bank of the Suzhou River, singing softly.
And as the singing spread throughout the concession, it was the news that the lone army in Sihang Warehouse had repelled several Japanese attacks in one day and killed hundreds of Japanese invaders.
Like the scorching wind in summer, it quickly ignited the enthusiasm of the Chinese people in the concession covering an area of dozens of square kilometers.
With the help of some caring people, several charity organizations with official backgrounds quickly set up donation points on the streets. In name, they donated materials and money to the resisting army. In fact, the political significance was greater than the donation itself.
It has been arranged that newspaper reporters will take photos of this scene and publish it in newspapers with passionate words, and spread it to the whole country and even the world.
The battlefield belongs to warriors, but it is just a battlefield.
Behind the battlefield is the stage where the big shots compete.
However, the big shots who were strategizing still underestimated the enthusiasm of the Chinese people.
Whether it's East or West.
They all underestimated how much the Chinese people, who have always been shrouded in the shadow of failure, yearn for victory.
