Just when Pan Meiren received the secret message sent back by Xiao Yi, the Xinghua Volunteer Army began a violent break-in operation.
The specific action plan was proposed by Cui Lin. This Langya squadron leader was quite bold. He proposed that he and a Langya named Wang Gensheng accompany Lin Jiangshi to meet with the British division commander who surrounded the camp, and then directly take him as a hostage and force him to The British army gets out of the way, and if this method fails, they will attack by force. First use mortars to bombard the British army's temporary headquarters, and then fight all the way out.
"The British are unkind and unjust to us. Damn it, it's time for these foreign devils to see the bloody nature of us Chinese." Cui Lin said to the officers of the Volunteer Army,
The officers of the volunteer army were all excited after hearing this, and they were all gearing up, and their morale soared.
The commander of the British division surrounding the Volunteer Army camp was named Johnny. Johnny had just learned about the retreat planned by Wavell. He was praising Wavell like a flower in front of the two brigade commanders and chief of staff, "Weaver Admiral Weir is simply our savior, oh, God, why not transfer him to the Far East earlier, in that case, we may have defeated the Japanese by now." He was talking about the train, and a second lieutenant came in and reported: "Sir, please see Lin Qiu, the commander of the Xinghua Volunteer Army."
"The Chinese are aware of it." Johnny said, laughing twice: "It's a pity it's too late, let him in."
The Battle of Singapore had only been fought for more than ten days. The British army had only lost 2,000 people, but its morale had been completely lost. The senior officers did not think about how to defeat the enemy. They were in panic every day, but they thought about how to escape. In this military disaster, how can we protect our lives and property? It’s no wonder that after learning about the retreat plan, they were so ecstatic that they even lost their composure.
When Lin Jiangshi walked in with Cui Lin and Wang Gensheng, he was stopped by two British guards at the door. The second lieutenant came out and said to Lin Jiangshi: "You can go in, they stay." He also said: "Firearms. Leave it to me for safekeeping first, and then return it to you when you come out."
Lin Jiangshi frowned. He didn't expect that this little second lieutenant would actually make things difficult for him. He held the handle of the pistol in his hand and was hesitating whether to hand it over when he heard a few "ouch" whispers. Cui Lin and Wang Gensheng suddenly came forward Come forward, raise your hands and lower your fists. The two guards, including the second lieutenant, have been knocked down.
Cui Lin shouted: "Let's go." He strode into the house.
Inside the room, Johnny and others were talking and laughing wantonly to vent their pent-up emotions. A brigade commander inadvertently looked towards the door and saw Cui Lin and Wang Gensheng knocking down three British officers and soldiers very easily. He was shocked. He stood up and shouted: "There are assassins." Then he drew his gun.
The others were reminded by him and looked towards the door one after another. Two of them reacted quickly and wanted to draw their guns. However, at this moment, they heard a gunshot and the tea cup on the table next to Johnny was suddenly smashed. , then, they heard a somewhat stiff English shout: "Don't move, bullets don't have eyes."
Johnny was shocked and shouted at Lin Jiangshi: "Lin, what do you want to do?"
Lin Jiangshi followed Cui Lin and Wang Gensheng into the house and sneered: "Commander Johnny, it's my turn to ask you this, why do you surround our volunteer camp?"
"Commander Lin, I have something to say, I have something to say, misunderstanding, misunderstanding." A brigade commander said,
"Gentlemen, raise your hands, raise them higher." Cui Lin said solemnly, holding a Browning in each hand.
The king stepped forward and took off the guns from their waists.
"Lin Jiangshi, do you want to rebel? Don't forget, we have a whole division here." Johnny yelled with anger, but before he could finish his words, Wang Gensheng slapped him hard, "Shut up." mouth, if you still want to keep two teeth to eat." Wang Gensheng also said in English, his cruelty and cold tone suddenly shattered the imagination of the British officers and made them realize that this time the Chinese It's true,
Outside the house, hundreds of British soldiers had gathered around. However, after seeing the situation inside the house, they all threw their weapons away. No one dared to get too close.
"Johnny, tell them all to put down their guns." Lin Jiangshi said to Johnny,
Cui Lin signaled with his pistol, drove a total of three generals and two colonels together, and escorted them out of the house.
"Put down your guns, hurry up." Johnny and others were already sweating. This was because they were scared. For them, they were in heaven just now, but now they are in hell. The Chinese were not only aware of their actions , and also took targeted measures. According to their observation, these barbaric Chinese may really shoot them if they do not cooperate.
The three of Cui Lin escorted five British officers to the street. In front of thousands of British soldiers, Cui Lin put a pistol to Johnny's head and said: "Don't test our patience. If after five minutes, the Volunteer Army camp is full of There's a British guy at the door, I'll blow your head off."
Faced with the threat of this naked and bloody Linlin, Johnny had no temper at all and angrily shouted at the British officers and soldiers around him: "Get out of the way, get out of the way, put your guns away, do you want to murder us?" .”
The volunteers withdrew from the camp in an orderly manner. At the same time, the nearby Chinese who were notified also came out of their hiding places and slowly followed behind them.
Cui Lin and Wang Gensheng escorted five British officers into a military truck, and the two tied them to the guardrail of the military truck. The latter held a machine gun and slowly pushed towards the military truck when it suddenly started. The British troops lined up and swept a shuttle at their feet, shouting in English: "Those who are not afraid of death, follow them."
Cui Lin pointed his pistol at Johnny, who immediately shouted knowingly: "Don't follow, stay where you are."
The volunteers slowly walked towards the dock, and Chinese people joined them from time to time along the way. Soon a team of tens of thousands of people gathered. During this period, a British army tried to stop them, but one of them was killed by a headshot by the leading wolves. A major and a captain, and as Johnny began to shout continuously on a loudspeaker: "I am Lieutenant General Johnny, the commander of such-and-such division, soldiers, I order you not to shoot." The British army watched them helplessly. Far away, no one is willing to come out to provoke the Chinese who are already in a state of violence.
The action plan of the "Singapore Great Retreat" was only known to some senior generals in the British army. Middle- and low-level officers and soldiers had no way of knowing about it, so they had no personal pain.
The volunteer army hijacked Johnny and others to protect the retreating Chinese and marched towards Chen's mansion. At the same time, with the help of Xiao Yi and Zhao Hao, Tan Kah Kee gathered nearby Chinese, with some community members as the main force, holding Cold weapons and some short guns were used to kidnap Thomas and kill him.
