"Disobey then. If those thousands of Japanese soldiers come out, neither you nor I will be able to save our lives. Do you think you can trust your dozen guards to control them?"

When Li Shaoyi was speaking, the sound of heavy machine guns had already been heard in the distance. When these Japanese prisoners of war were settled, they were placed on a flat ground with more than a dozen machine guns set up around them. When Li Shaoyi gave the order to kill the prisoners of war, more than a dozen jeeps rushed over again, and 32 heavy machine guns fired at them. It was really no big deal to kill only two or three thousand people.

Hearing the gunfire in the distance, Minister He knew there was no point in saying anything else. Why bother talking about it when they'd already killed them? But Li Shaoyi was right. The airport was now deserted, with even the ground crew armed. If anything happened to these Japanese prisoners, it would be impossible to control the situation.

"You will have a very bad international impact."

The gunfire in the distance had stopped. Minister He said with deep sorrow, "To put it bluntly, the people in the Nanjing National Government basically all had this idea: no one cared if the Japanese killed our prisoners of war, but these people were unwilling to see us kill Japanese prisoners of war, and they were even more upset than the Japanese themselves."

"International influence is bullshit! If your fist isn't strong enough, then nothing you do will be recognized internationally. If your fist is strong enough, then you can do whatever you want. This principle has never changed for thousands of years."

Li Shaoyi was too lazy to waste time talking to Minister He. He thought this guy was okay before, but after getting to know him for a long time, he found that his way of doing things was no different from those old bureaucrats in Jinling, so he was too lazy to socialize with him. When the plane can take off, he will hurry to send you back to Jinling so that you don't have to nag him here every day.

While the two were talking, the 29th Army in Fengping County had already started fighting with the Japanese army. Although the 29th Army Headquarters had issued an order for them to speed up their retreat, the Japanese army was coming with such force that they would not be given any chance to retreat. Even if you wanted to run all the way forward, you had to kill the person who shot you from behind, otherwise you would leave your back to these devils, and who knows how many people would die.

"Report to Commander Zhou, our commander, our commander..."

A soldier's face was covered in blood. He was the communicator of the commander of the 313th Regiment.

The commander of the 313th Regiment was hit by a Japanese stray bullet. At the last moment, he was ordered to tell Commander Zhou of the 312th Regiment to take over the command of the 313th Regiment.

The two regiments in the 29th Army were the kind of troops that were no longer loved and cared for by their uncles. After all, the 29th Army was also temporarily integrated. Even if there were any new weapons and equipment, the regular army would be equipped first. Their army only received a few machine guns, which was a big difference compared to the real Japanese army.

"You retreat first, our regiment will provide cover."

Captain Zhou just led his troops to retreat, and the 313th Regiment was providing cover from behind. Now it is the 313th Regiment's turn to retreat, otherwise the entire regiment will be wiped out. Although their commander died in the battle, we cannot live with our conscience and run away while stepping on his head.

"Captain Zhou, the Japanese attack is too fierce. We only have more than 400 brothers left. We can't retreat at all. You should leave quickly."

The communicator said with a bitter face that the Japanese had already come to their doorstep and it was impossible to retreat now.

"What? It's only been a short while, and your group has over 1,600 people..."

Captain Zhou said in disbelief that a reorganized regiment of more than 1,600 people could not even hold out for two hours in just a short time. You have to know that they were still under well-dug defensive fortifications.

"Brothers, stop retreating and organize defense on the spot."

Captain Zhou was clear-headed and did not order his brothers to speed up the retreat. He knew that the Japanese army was marching much faster than us. The brothers were all pale and thin. Although they ate better than ordinary people, we were far behind the Japanese army in terms of physical fitness.

Moreover, the enemy is an entire division. If we really chase them, we won't be able to outrun them. By then, everyone will be exhausted. Besides, our team is so long that we will be wiped out by them.

Rather than being annihilated by the enemy while escaping, it is better for us to organize defense on the spot. We are all going to die anyway, so we should bite off a piece of meat from the Japanese, no matter how big or small the piece is, as long as we can save one.

"Captain, look, there are planes coming. Are they Japanese?"

As soon as Captain Zhou gave the order, dozens of planes flew over in the sky. Captain Zhou squinted his eyes and looked. They were not Japanese. There was no red dot on them. Besides the Japanese, the only other planes around Peiping were from the 72nd Army.

"Wave our flags so they can see us and stop mistaking us for Japanese. Find a way to contact the 72nd Army. Do you have any communication equipment left?"

When Captain Zhou saw that the plane had started to dive, he quickly ordered his men to wave flags. If the plane bombed the wrong place, there would be no place to complain.

The pilots only saw an army in front of them. Judging from the number, they were definitely not Japanese, and the color of the uniforms did not match. When they saw the waving flags, more than a dozen planes took off again and began to move in the predetermined direction.

"Hurry, hurry, quickly build a defensive position. Listen up, everyone. If the Japs charge us, none of us will survive. Kill as many as you can. Don't expect us to escape. Now is the last moment. The veterans of the Great Wall War of Resistance are all watching here. Don't embarrass me, and don't embarrass us Northwest men."

Captain Zhou knew that these dozen planes would definitely buy them time. As long as the bombing was in place, it would take the Japanese army two or three hours to catch up. We had to build a defensive position, even if we had to use all our strength, we had to hurry up and do it.

More than ten minutes later, the sound of explosions was heard from the northeast, which should have been caused by the air bombing.

"Captain, captain, the plane is coming again. What are you looking at?"

At this moment, four transport planes began to drop supplies above their heads. Although they had not yet made contact, the reconnaissance plane had already confirmed that these were the retreating troops of the 29th Army.

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and get some people to catch up with those umbrellas."

When Captain Zhou was in class, he heard someone say that this must be airdropped supplies. Even if we add up all the stuff on our bodies, each person only has an average of thirty rounds of ammunition. We can't fight the Japanese with anything, so this is really a lot of stuff...
