    Chapter 147: Xiaoshan Ling¡¯s Attitude (Please watch the new book)

    Xiao Shanling looks like a typical Hunanese. He is not tall and a bit thin. The major general uniform he wears is somewhat funny, and he does not have the valor of a general.  Coupled with the bloody battle with the Japanese army for many days in a row, the whole person looked very tired.

    The moment he saw Li Guoyao, Xiao Shanling was a little stunned, but more of it said, "Sure enough, it is so."

    "Are you Li Guoyao from the 67th Army Independent Brigade?"

    Although this was the first time for Ling Xiao Shan to meet Li Guoyao, and he was not at the garrison headquarters when Li Guoyao came here before, this did not prevent Ling Xiao Shan from recognizing Li Guoyao's identity at a glance. After all, the reports about Li Guoyao were very popular some time ago, and Ling Xiao Shan naturally  I have seen photos of Li Guoyao.

    "Hello, Chief Xiao!" Li Guoyao said.

    Since he was not sure what Xiao Shanling¡¯s attitude was at this time, Li Guoyao spoke very calmly!

    "In the past few hours since Chief Tang and others left, you have been directing the battle on the front line?" Xiao Shanling asked immediately.

    "Chief Xiao also knows about the retreat of Chief Tang and others?"

    "I know, and I personally sent them to Coal Port. But when I returned to the city, I happened to encounter an emergency on the Purple Mountain battlefield to the east, so I took the gendarmerie to reinforce. I didn't expect that the fight lasted for several hours.  . I just retreated after receiving the order to retreat from the garrison headquarters. I thought the order was strange, so I brought people over to have a look!" Xiao Shanling explained.

    Hearing the relatively calm attitude of the deputy commander of the gendarmerie and mayor of Nanjing, Li Guoyao immediately nodded and said: "I came over in the afternoon to ask for instructions. It turned out that the garrison headquarters was in chaos, and several officers Tang, Liu, and Luo had disappeared.  , all the combat staff inside were gone, and there were only dozens of rioters who were taking advantage of the chaos to grab the items in the headquarters, and then they drove those rebels out."

    Then Li Guoyao continued: "After asking about the situation, I found out that Tang Shengzhi and others had already abandoned the city and fled, and handed over the command of the retreat to the combat staff. However, those staff were greedy for life and feared death. After Tang Shengzhi and others retreated,  They all fled, and no order was given to the frontline troops. After understanding the situation, I ordered someone to take over the command here."

    After understanding the situation, Ling Xiao Shan looked at Li Guoyao and said, "Sir Tang, they did not abandon the city and flee, but they were ordered to retreat by the commission!"

    However, he saw Li Guoyao take out a document from the briefcase he carried with him, then handed it to Xiao Shanling and said: "I found this in Chief Tang's office. The commissioner personally sent it to Chief Tang. Chief Xiao can read it.  look!"

    Ling Xiaoshan immediately took the telegram and read it, and then said with some surprise: "Is this really an order from the commission?"

    "Yes, although the committee agrees that the Nanjing garrison can break out under forced circumstances, it hopes that we can persist for a while. However, Tang Shengzhi and others are unworthy of their trust in the committee. The slightest sign of trouble scares them out of their wits.  , fled in a hurry, even without arranging the front-line troops, what is this but abandoning the city and fleeing?"

    Faced with Li Guoyao's questioning, Xiao Shanling gritted his teeth and said: "Chief Tang entrusted me with all the affairs of Nanjing City before leaving, but I didn't expect those combat staff to dare"

    Li Guoyao knew that Tang Shengzhi was grateful to Xiao Shan Ling, and immediately said: "Sir Xiao, you are the mayor of Nanjing, and you are also the deputy commander and acting commander of the military police, and I am just an ordinary brigade commander. I am not qualified to accuse you, but this matter  This matter is related to the life and death of more than 100,000 soldiers in Nanjing, I have to say. Tang Shengzhi, as the most trusted general of the commission, has to be the last to evacuate even if he wants to evacuate. How can he hand over the front-line command to you, a major general? This is  Isn¡¯t it nonsense?¡±

    "I know that Tang Shengzhi was kind to Commander Xiao, but you have to know that this kind of kindness is nothing compared to the hundreds of thousands of troops in Nanjing City. So please Commander Xiao, please don't excuse him. You must know that the masses are discerning!"

    Xiao Shanling nodded and said: "Anyway, I have to thank Brigadier Li. If you hadn't called the frontline troops in time and stabilized the battle situation, Nanjing City might have been destroyed in the afternoon, and there were no more than a hundred thousand people."  Once the troops who received the order were blocked in the city by the Japanese army, the consequences would be disastrous!"

    Li Guoyao shook his head and said, "I don't dare to take the word thank you seriously. As long as Chief Xiao doesn't accuse me of overstepping my bounds, that's fine!"

    Xiao Shanling immediately said: "This matter also depends on the situation. If you had done this under different circumstances, you would have falsely conveyed the imperial edict, which is a serious crime. But today, you are not to blame. I will personally report this matter to the committee later."  Reported by the Chairman. Although it is not necessarily?Reward, but certainly not punished!  "

    "Well, Guoyao, thank you, Chief Xiao!" Li Guoyao said.

    "Brigadier Li seems to be solemn, right? Then I will call you solemn, and you should not repeat yourself as Commander Xiao. We have the same military rank, and I am a little older, so you can call me Brother Tienong!" Xiao Shan  ordered.

    It can be seen that Xiao Shanling admires Li Guoyao very much and does not blame him at all for commanding the frontline troops without authorization from his superiors. He is also willing to excuse him in front of the committee. This made Li Guoyao couldn't help but nod!

    Although he didn¡¯t care about his superior¡¯s attitude towards him, it was nice to have less trouble!

    "Then it's better for me to be respectful than obey my orders!" Li Guoyao said.

    "By the way, solemnly, I think the current situation in Nanjing is okay. Why the sudden retreat?" Xiao Shanling asked again.

    Li Guoyao sighed and said: "Judging from the current situation, it is indeed okay. If we continue to fight in this state, at least it will not be a problem for another one to two weeks, and at the worst, Nanjing City will definitely be safe and sound within five days."

    "Yes, there is sufficient food and grass in the city, there is no shortage of weapons, equipment and ammunition, and there are more than 100,000 troops. It shouldn't be a big problem to hold on for another week!" Xiao Shanling said immediately.

    "Brother Tienong, the current situation is okay mainly because the troops in the city don't know that Tang Shengzhi and others have escaped. Not only Chief Tang, but as far as I know, many front-line commanders have abandoned their troops and fled.  Including Sun Yuanliang, the commander of the 88th Division, Wang Jingjiu, the commander of the 74th Army, and Gui Yongqing, the captain of the teaching corps. One by one, these people all separated from the army. It was because the battle was too fierce and everyone had not yet reacted.  When the army learns that all these division commanders and army commanders have fled, does Brother Tie Nong think the army can maintain its current morale?"

    Then Li Guoyao continued: "What's more important is that the person who is in charge of Nanjing now is not Chairman Chiang Kai-shek, nor Tang Shengzhi, the garrison commander, but me, a little-known person. When everyone doesn't know it, he is pulling the tiger's skin to pull it off.  Banner, no one said anything even though Yue Zu was acting as his agent, once everyone knew that it was me, a little major general and brigade commander, who was directing them to fight with the little devils, do you think the division and brigade commanders would be convinced?"

    Ling Xiao Shan fell silent immediately. He had served in Nanjing City for 8 years, so he naturally knew who he was working with.  I don't know, but if this thing is leaked, those division and brigade commanders will be the first to quit!

    At this time, Xiao Shanling also understood Li Guoyao's difficulties. It was not that he did not want to continue to defend Nanjing, but that the conditions did not allow it. After all, if he continued to defend Nanjing, the military division commanders on the front line would definitely find the problem, and then the whole city would inevitably be in chaos.  Rather than doing that, it¡¯s better to retreat as soon as possible!

    This shows that Li Guoyao is also a sensible person and is not the stupid young man he imagined. This also makes Xiao Shanling's favor for Li Guoyao increase a lot again.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
