Tang Dynasty, I can lead troops through ancient and modern times
Chapter 23 4 Warehouse Defense
Facing Li Chengqian's question, Hou Junji's eyes were firm: "I will follow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince until death."
Li Chengqian looked at Li Jing again and said, "I am willing to follow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Li Jing's statement was equivalent to tying himself completely to the prince's car.
Regardless of whether he could return to the Tang Dynasty smoothly, he had chosen Li Chengqian as the crown prince.
"Old Cheng, what about you?"
Cheng Yaojin laughed loudly: "To be honest, I really looked down on Your Highness before, but now..."
As he spoke, Cheng Yaojin knelt on one knee: "I swear to follow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince until death!"
The six guards also knelt on one knee: "We swear to follow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince until death."
"Okay, let's die again, let's go!"
..............
Since August 8, the Japanese army has deployed more than 13 troops and our army has deployed more than troops. The two sides have engaged in fierce fighting over the Shanghai market.
Due to the gap in equipment and the Japanese army's advantages in navy, army and air force, the national army was defeated.
After holding out for more than two months, due to heavy casualties, Chiang Kai-shek decided to withdraw from the Zhabei area, leaving behind one division alone, in exchange for the sacrifice of one division in exchange for the sympathy and support of the international community.
But some people felt that for political purposes, there was no need to sacrifice so many soldiers, and advocated leaving only one regiment to defend the city.
In the end, some people even felt that one regiment was still too many troops, so they only left one reinforced battalion, the 524st Battalion of the th Regiment, to guard the Sihang Warehouse.
He ordered Xie Jinyuan, the deputy regiment commander from the 19th Route Army, to be the commander and lead the battle.
At that time, the south bank of Suzhou River was the British and American International Settlement.
After the Battle of Shanghai began, Britain and the United States stationed troops in the International Settlement to prevent the war from spreading to the concession.
At that time, the Japanese army did not have the strength to declare war on Britain and the United States, so the International Settlement was relatively safe.
When the vanguard of the Japanese invaders advanced to the Sihang Warehouse, they were immediately counterattacked by the defenders. More than ten Japanese soldiers were killed and they had no choice but to retreat.
Afterwards, the Japanese army attacked under the cover of tanks, but the artillery fire could not break through the thick walls. The Japanese army did not dare to use heavy artillery for fear of affecting the concession and the two large gas tanks near the Sihang Warehouse, so they had to retreat in a hurry.
The battle lasted for four full days, from the 27th to the 30th.
During these four days, the "Eight Hundred Heroes" attracted widespread attention at home and abroad.
The "last stronghold" of Sihang Warehouse broadcast live the battle to the whole world. The "isolated island" anti-bandit movement was the continuation of the Songhu War and the beginning of the Nanjing Defense War.
It is precisely because the Chinese people are not afraid of powerful forces and bravely resist the war that they have won the sympathy of the whole world!
Li Chengqian led the Tang Dynasty soldiers and arrived on the second day of the Battle of Sihang Warehouse in the sewer in the basement.
[Successfully arrived on the second day of the Sihang Warehouse Defense Battle.....]
"Where is this? It stinks!"
Cheng Yaojin looked at the dark surroundings and the water line from the sewer touched his waist.
Li Chengqian looked around and saw a bright light ahead. This should be the underground sewer of the Sihang Warehouse, and the exit was not far ahead.
At this moment, a faint sound came from above...
"Comrades, we have held out for a day and a night and have blocked seven enemy attacks. Even if there is only one man left, we cannot let the enemy pass under our feet. As long as we have people, we will remain in our position."
"The man is in the position!"
"who?"
Li Chengqian and his companions suddenly appeared on the underground floor of the warehouse and were discovered by the soldiers who were guarding the sewers in the basement.
Hou Junji and Cheng Yaojin quickly protected Li Chengqian.
"Don't shoot, we are a spontaneous anti-Japanese team organized by the Chinese in Southeast Asia, swimming over from the south bank!!"
Li Chengqian once again brought up his identity as a Nanyang Chinese.
When Xie Jinyuan heard the noise, he quickly led people to the basement.
When he saw the equipment of Li Chengqian and others, he asked in confusion: "Nanyang Chinese? The equipment you are wearing..."
"It's American equipment. We bought it with our own money."
Xie Jinyuan still looked at Li Chengqian questioningly: "How do you prove your identity?"
how to prove?
Li Chengqian looked up at the light coming down from the window at the top of the basement. Outside, a Japanese officer was reorganizing his soldiers and seemed to be preparing to launch another attack.
"Can killing a Japanese commander prove it?"
Xie Jinyuan still did not order the alert to be lifted, but he ordered the soldiers to disperse and maintain the encirclement of Li Chengqian and his men.
Li Chengqian pointed outside the warehouse, and after getting Xie Jinyuan's permission, he climbed up the piled goods and came to the small window at the top.
He set up the sniper rifle and aimed at the Japanese commander outside.
"Sniper rifle!!" Only then did Xie Jinyuan realize that the gun in Li Chengqian's hand was not simple.
"Wait, if we shoot the Japanese commander at this time, it will easily lead to another attack from the other side."
"You guys take your men to the defense point and be ready to counterattack at any time."
"Yes!"
After being well prepared, he looked at Li Chengqian and said, "Come on, let me see the methods of the Nanyang Chinese."
