The evacuation of the refugees was carried out very quickly. Because the distance between the river and the refugees was not long, and with the cover of the national army's artillery, countless ships transported the refugees back and forth.
Soon, the unprecedented retreat from Nanjing came to an end.
The Japanese navy did not come to help.
Perhaps he felt that it was immoral to help the army attack civilian ships.
Perhaps he wanted to see the army make a fool of themselves.
Perhaps the shipwrecks on the river had stopped the attack.
In any case, the retreat went smoothly.
Xiao Yan and Yu Xiao Qing were the last to retreat after defeating the Japanese.
The artillery on the north shore also provided artillery cover to suppress the Japanese attack, allowing Yu Xiaoqing and Xiao Yan's troops to retreat smoothly.
Of course, it was mainly for Yu Xiao Qing.
This was because the person sitting opposite him was the Chief of Staff, He Yingqin.
The big shot of the National Government who had treated Yu Xiao Qing as his son.
In order to save Yu Xiao Qing, He Ying Qin spared no effort and even shot a division commander who was afraid of battle.
Xiao Yan sat on the evacuation ferry. He was too tired, so he casually sat down.
The nightmare in Nanjing was finally over.
Being a soldier was really hard, and his heart was tired.
At this time, a beautiful figure sat beside Xiao Yan and asked,
"Hey, do you have a cigarette? Give me one. I'm so uncomfortable."
Xiao Yan turned around and saw that it was Zhuang Xiaoman.
Zhuang Xiaoman also looked disheveled. She must have participated in the battle.
Xiao Yan took out a pack of Big Front Gate cigarettes and handed one to Zhuang Xiaoman. He lit one himself.
Xiao Yan held the cigarette in his mouth and wanted to light it for Zhuang Xiaoman.
Zhuang Xiaoman, however, moved closer to Xiao Yan's face without any scruples and aimed her cigarette at Xiao Yan's burning cigarette.
"Lend me a light."
Zhuang Xiaoman's perfume and body fragrance wafted into Xiao Yan's nose, and his heart skipped a beat.
Because the two of them fought side by side, they also developed a certain relationship.
Zhuang Xiaoman borrowed the fire and leaned against Xiao Yan weakly, her head touching Xiao Yan's.
"Xiao Yan, when do you think this damn war will end?”
Xiao Yan blew out a smoke ring and said,"Probably eight years."
Zhuang Xiaoman giggled. However, your nonsense mouth is quite likable. Sigh, this battle is really difficult."
Xiao Yan: " I don't want to fight anymore. It'll end in eight years anyway. How about you live in seclusion with me in Jianghu?"”
Zhuang Xiaoman lowered her head and hesitated."I don't dare. He wouldn't even know how he would die if he betrayed Boss Dai. Besides, you can't afford to raise me. I'm very delicate."
"Can't support you?" Xiao Yan laughed. What a joke. I'm a millionaire now."
"You?" Zhuang Xiaoman didn't believe him. Mr. Rich Boss? How much property do you have?"
Xiao Yan extended five fingers.
Zhuang Xiaoman didn't understand.”
"500 Yellow Croakers (312.5 gold bars each)"
Zhuang Xiaoman was shocked.”
"I didn't gain anything from the Battle of Nanjing." Xiao Yan chuckled. Some government officials did not have time to pack up when they retreated, leaving behind a lot of property. I took them all when I led my troops to Nanjing.”
"The most I took was 500 large yellow croakers from the Central Bank. Anyway, it's better for me to take it than for the Japanese to take it, right?”
Zhuang Xiaoman was a little envious.”
"Mm-hmm, please call me Boss Xiao from now on. Thank you."”
Zhuang Xiaoman spat at him." You're just a nouveau riche. Don't be so arrogant."”
"How about it? Think about it, do you want to live a good life with me?" Xiao Yan asked. It's better than your bloody spy job.”
Zhuang Xiaoman lowered her head.”
"Okay, then think about it. If you think it through, I'll let you be the first wife."”
The two of them chatted happily.
Xiao Yan even told Zhuang Xiaoman a joke about the Japanese.
"Xiaoman, do you know? The retreat was successful because the Japanese navy did not move out. Because the Japanese Navy and Army were enemies. Their relationship was so bad that they almost cut each other with knives when they met.
Once, a few senior officers of the Army went to a navy warship to do business. When it was lunchtime, the chief of staff asked the captain," What were their lunch arrangements?
The captain said,"Humiliate them severely according to the usual standard of food for ordinary sailors."。
Unexpectedly, after the army officers finished eating, they ran to the captain and were moved to tears. I thought that since we were not on good terms, your navy would definitely not welcome us warmly. I didn't expect our navy brothers to be so magnanimous and treat us to such a high-end lunch.。。Yuxi, I haven't eaten such a sumptuous meal in a long time.”
Zhuang Xiaoman laughed as she held her stomach.
"The Japanese Army is so pitiful."
Xiao Yan said," That's right. The Japanese army is made up of country bumpkins, while the navy is made up of highly educated elites. The difference is naturally huge."
The two of them chatted and fell asleep unknowingly.
Zhuang Xiaoman rested her head on Xiao Yan's shoulder.
After a long time, Xiao Yan was still in a deep sleep, but Zhuang Xiaoman stood up.
She carefully looked at Xiao Yan's face, revealed a charming smile, and then secretly kissed him on the cheek.
"Goodbye, Xiao Yan. I have my mission. I can't live in seclusion with you. Thinking back, I hated you so much that I wanted to kill you, but now I kind of like you. This bullet was originally meant to kill you, so I'll leave it to you as a souvenir.”
Zhuang Xiaoman stuffed a bullet into Xiao Yan's hand.
"Xiao Yan, you're a hero, and I'm just a spy living in the dark. We weren't on the same side. If we are fated, let's meet again in the future."
With that, Zhuang Xiaoman jumped into the river.
