Liu Yu knew that Zhang Zifeng and the injured members of the Independent Regiment should be in Song Jiang.
His original plan was to go to Song Jiang.
However, Liu Yu thought of something. When the Japanese formed the 10th army, they were actually in a hurry.
Therefore, other than weapons and ammunition, there was not much food supply.
Therefore, the command given to the 10th Army was to raise funds after they landed.
As the vanguard, the 6th division had also started killing and looting all the way to Jinling.
From Jinshan Guards to Song Jiang, there were dozens of villages and towns.
Other than a few rich people who had secretly joined the Japanese, the rest of the villages were basically all plundered by the Japanese.
The most hateful thing was that those rich people even sent a large amount of food to the menacing Japanese.
This also allowed the Japanese to gather a large amount of food in just one or two days.
At present, the Japanese should be starting to land on a large scale.
It would take at least three days to attack Song Jiang.
However, the 6th division should start moving tomorrow afternoon at the latest.
At the thought of this, Liu Yu ordered the troops to stop. Then, he ordered the troops to inform all the villages along the road that the Japanese were coming. He told them to bring food to the nearby swamps or mountains to hide.
As for whether the people were willing or not, Tina could only leave it to fate.
Because he planned to fight guerrilla warfare with the Japanese from the village here to the 30 kilometers between Song Jiang.
If the Japanese wanted to transport a large number of heavy weapons to Song Jiang, they must go through the main road here.
This was something that the Japanese could not avoid. The villages along the way and the resistance forces would be cleaned up by the Japanese first.
Only then would the Japanese be able to safely transport heavy weapons to Song Jiang.
Around midnight, Liu Yu led his troops to Qiaojing Town, accompanied by the sound of dogs barking.
Qiaojing Town was the only way for the Japanese to go from Jinshan Guards to Song Jiang.
The name of Qiaojing Town came from a river that flowed through the town. It was a tributary of the Huangpu River.
If they wanted to cross this side, they would have to cross a 40-meter-long bridge.
It was a bridge made of stone that could withstand heavy equipment.
By guarding this bridge, they could basically control the passage of the Sixth Division to Song Jiang.
Under the night sky, Qiaojing Town was awakened by the troops entering the town.
However, no one opened their doors to check on the situation.
The battle in Songhu was chaotic. It was normal for people to pass through the town.
The commoners here were basically all used to it.
Early the next morning, when the sun was about to rise, every household was ready to start a new day.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw soldiers sleeping on the streets of the town in the cold winter.
For a moment, the entire town was alarmed.
The troops that entered the town last night did not leave. Instead, they rested on the streets of the town.
The mayor of the local town brought some squires and hurried to the street.
At this time, the troops who had woken up also began to gather in the town.
When the potbellied mayor and seven or eight squires dressed in silk came to the front of the troops, Liu Yu was already standing in front of the troops.
Seeing the military rank on Liu Yu's collar, the mayor hurriedly walked up with a smile. He took off his hat and bowed slightly. He said in a flattering tone,"Sir, why are you sleeping on the road after coming to Qiaojing Town? It's so cold today. I'm the town mayor, Qiao Shanhuai. Please come to my house to drink a mouthful of hot water to drive away the cold.”
Looking at the soldiers who were filled with killing intent, the squires behind Qiao Shanhuai were all carefully smiling.
"There's no need to drink water. This place will soon become a battlefield. I'm not in the mood to listen to you talk about friendship.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Yu led the infantry company, Qiao Shanhuai, and the eight squires to a tall courtyard by the side of the town road.
At this moment, the tall gate was surrounded by soldiers.
There were many armed guards in the courtyard, who were confronting the soldiers who surrounded the place.
However, these guards were at most from the militia, and the weapons in their hands were generally made in Hanyang. The better ones were Zhongzheng rifles.
They looked quite old.
Many people from the nearby towns were watching from afar and pointing at them.
At this moment, a middle-aged man with a big belly and two small mustaches stood in front of these soldiers arrogantly. He was protected by these guards, and his voice could even be heard by the squires who were walking over from afar.
"Do you know who I am? My son is the director of Jinling's security. You guys didn't even ask around before you surrounded my house. Who's your superior? Tell him to come and see me quickly…"
Liu Yu walked over and confirmed the red signal on the System Map. He pulled out his pistol and walked over.
The soldiers surrounding the courtyard opened up a path for Liu Yu, allowing Liu Yu to enter with the mayor and the other squires.
Seeing Liu Yu walk in, the owner of the courtyard also looked down on Liu Yu, the colonel. However, he was a little polite and cupped his hands.
"Colonel, I, Qiao Ying, have some reputation in Jinling. Is there a misunderstanding…"
However, before he could finish, Liu Yu interrupted him and said,"You have some face. Is that the reason why you colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country?”
"What?!" Qiao Ying, the middle-aged man with a small mustache and a big belly, suddenly had a change in expression, and his hands were trembling. However, this person was also a character and immediately calmed down.
Tina suddenly raised the muzzle of her gun and shot through his head.
The moment Liu Yu made his move, the soldiers who were like wolves and tigers also stepped forward. They used the butts of their guns to directly beat the guards who were holding guns to the ground and controlled them.
This scene frightened quite a number of people at the side. Qiao Shanhuai's legs could not help but tremble, and thick fear was written on his face.
