Chapter 254 I Stay and Retreat With My Brothers
"Brother Wang! Since the headquarters issued a retreat order and the division sent someone to notify you, don't stick to it."

Zhao Zilong immediately took a step forward and stared at Wang Zhong: "Even if we all guard the Zhonghua Gate with you, but the national troops at other gates have retreated, if the devils attack, what's the point of us staying here?"

Seeing that Wang Zhong was still silent, Zhao Zilong took another step closer, pointed to Chen Jiangang and others present and the brothers from the national army in the distance, and asked in a deep voice: "Brother Wang! You don't want all the brothers here to be killed by devils?" surrounded?"

Chen Jiangang pursed his lips tightly and stared at Wang Zhong.

The Chief of Staff listened to Zhao Zilong's words, nodded his head slightly, and continued to look at Wang Zhong.

At this time, Wang Zhong's face changed, his brows raised, and he woke up suddenly.

Wang Zhong glanced at everyone, then looked at Zhao Zilong, he immediately took off his helmet, scratched his hair vigorously, and regained his resolute expression: "Brother! You are right. I can't put my brothers in danger because of myself." Regardless."

Seeing that Wang Zhong agreed to retreat, the chief of staff breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at Zhao Zilong and said, "Zhao Zilong! The master has ordered you to retreat with us first."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zilong opened his eyes, feeling a little surprised.But considering that he was rewarded by the chairman of the committee, it is normal for Sun Jian to arrange for the chief of staff to pick him up and retreat now.

However, he then asked, "What about the brothers from the third battalion?"

After glancing at Wang Zhong and the others, the chief of staff replied: "Battling Commander Wang led the brothers in the battalion to retreat to the Xiaguan Pass by themselves, looking for tools to cross the river."

"No! I will stay and retreat with the brothers." As soon as the chief of staff finished speaking, Zhao Zilong immediately shook his head and said firmly.

"Zhao Zilong! This is the command of the teacher himself, and it was also told by Commander Tang repeatedly." The Chief of Staff's face changed when he heard this.

"Go back and tell the teacher. This is my own decision and has nothing to do with you."

Zhao Zilong knew that if the chief of staff did not take him back, he would not be able to complete the task and it would be difficult to explain, so he took the responsibility on himself.

"Brother! You'd better go back with the chief of staff. They must have made arrangements for the division." After Wang Zhong frowned, he went up to persuade him.

"Brother Wang! It's easy to talk about other things, this time you have to listen to me. I will stay and retreat with everyone." Zhao Zilong raised his face.

Seeing Zhao Zilong's serious appearance, Wang Zhong could only whisper, "Okay. I'll listen to you."

"Zhao Zilong! Then you should go to the next pass immediately."

Seeing this, the chief of staff couldn't say anything more.He also knew that the matter was urgent, so he wanted to go back quickly and cross the river with Sun Jian and others.

"Slow down." Just as the chief of staff was about to leave with that team of guards, Zhao Zilong stretched out his hand to stop them.

"Zhao Zilong! What do you want?" The chief of staff frowned and stared at the other party.

"I have a request."

Zhao Zilong glanced at the chief of staff, then at the team of guards, and said loudly: "Brothers! Can you see brothers from other troops on the way back and tell them not to go to the customs?"

"Why?" The chief of staff raised his brows and asked in surprise.

Not only was the team of guards strange, but even Wang Zhong and Chen Jiangang were astonished.

"Brother! The division seat also arranged for us to go to Xiaguan Pass. Why did you tell other troops not to go?" Wang Zhong also asked immediately.

"If all the troops rush to Xiaguan to cross the river, what do you think will happen?" Zhao Zilong looked at the crowd, shook his head slightly, and asked back.

Because he knew that according to historical records, when planning and arranging the retreat of various troops, the garrison command required most of the troops to break through from the front, and some of them followed the command to cross the river from Xiaguan.

However, after the written order was distributed, Tang Zhixin also considered that the 88th, 87th, and 36th divisions and the teaching corps were direct descendants of Commissar Jiang, and he was afraid that the losses in the breakout would be too great to explain to Commissar Jiang, so he verbally instructed them "if they can't All break through, and when there is a ferry, they can cross the river and assemble to Chuzhou."

This greatly reduced the seriousness of the original retreat order, and also provided an excuse for other troops not to implement the order. As a result, except for the 66th Army and the 83rd Army who broke out from the front according to the order, the rest of the armies and divisions did not follow the order. As a result, all the troops flocked to the river, wanting to cross the river and retreat.

"This..." As soon as Wang Zhong imagined tens of thousands of soldiers leading to the pass, his face suddenly changed.

Zhao Zilong turned around and stared at the chief of staff, and then asked back: "Chief of staff! You should know how the retreat plan was arranged. I dare not say that all the personnel can obey the order, if only half, half of the troops go to Xiaguan to retreat , what will happen then?"

Although Zhao Zilong had indirectly forced the officers at the banquet to obey the order and retreat, he didn't believe it all, so he discounted the number of troops who could carry out the order.

"It can't pass at all."

The chief of staff knew about the situation at Yijiang Gate, so without thinking about it, he immediately replied: "Because the gates on the left and right sides of Yijiang Gate have been blocked, and only the middle gate can pass through. If tens of thousands of people have to pass through one gate , it will cause crowds and trample on each other."

The guards listened and nodded.

"That's right." Zhao Zilong nodded and said, "Since you know about this situation, you naturally know what to do, right?"

"I know, we will tell everyone when we go back." The chief of staff also nodded.

On the way back, the chief of staff and this team of guards saw many troops running from Zhongshan Road to Xiaguan, so they persuaded the national troops.Some believed it and didn't go there, but some didn't believe it and rushed to Xiaguan.

However, Zhao Zilong did not know these things.
-
Zhonghuamen city wall.

"Brother Wang! It would be a little hasty for us to evacuate the Zhonghua Gate now. Besides, you see, the devils have assembled and may attack at any time."

Zhao Zilong pointed to the other side of the moat and said.

Everyone looked into the distance one after another, and when they saw the devils lined up in groups, their faces changed.

"Brother! What do you think?" Wang Zhong withdrew his gaze and stared at Zhao Zilong.

"I want to kill the devils first, and scare them away from approaching the city wall easily, so as to buy time for everyone to evacuate." After sensing the devil's movement, Zhao Zilong's eyes flickered a few times, and he said in a deep voice.

"Brother Zhao! Besides fighting with the bayonet, what better way do you have?" Chen Jiangang asked immediately.

"No." Zhao Zilong shook his head, waved his hands and said, "This time, we won't bayonet the devils."

"If we don't fight the bayonet, we all lack bullets, so how can we kill the devils?" Chen Jiangang was surprised.

Everyone also looked over with wide-eyed eyes.

"Don't we have these?" Zhao Zilong twitched his lips, smiled, and pointed to the wooden boxes on the ground.
