.Dianli, Chongqing.

"Okay! OK! OK!" What could make the highest authorities with strong self-control say three good words in a row was naturally the telegram sent by Cheng Jiaji tightly in his hand.

I think it is true that since the Japanese army launched the western Hubei offensive, I know that they are the supreme authority who cannot retreat. Although they look full of confidence on the surface, they are not in a state of trepidation and anxiety. But now, not only the Japanese army that were originally pressing on the line of Xiling Gorge have retreated to Yichang, but even the famous city of Wuchang (if the Japanese side urgently transferred a large number of gunboats from the Yangtze River were blocking the Yangtze River, the Japanese army could not even save the northern part of the three towns.) was recovered by the Forty-Eighth Army. This means that not only the danger in Chongqing has been resolved, the Japanese have also completely fallen into a strategic passive position.

The sudden and huge victory made the supreme authorities deeply immersed in ecstasy and unable to extricate themselves for a long time. This extreme excitement prompted him to enter a state of hallucination. In the hazy, he seemed to be first welcomed into Nanjing by thousands of people, and then stood in front of the grandfather's mausoleum with his head held high, showing his great achievements to the 40 million people.

"Sir. Director Bai is here." The announcement from Team Leader Yan, who had met Cheng Jiaji, interrupted the self-indulgence of the supreme authorities.

"Oh! Please!" The supreme authorities, who suddenly came to their senses, said unexpectedly, and remembered that it was the one who urgently summoned the other party from Guilin.

After the two big names were making a few remarks, the Supreme Administration couldn't wait to introduce the topic to the topic: "Jiansheng, tell me how to move the next step in this battle, which is the most beneficial to us!" Although there was a close cooperation between the two people as early as the Northern Expedition, most of the time of disharmony in the past decade, the Supreme Administration was quite convinced by the strategic vision and military command ability of the camp director.

"Then I'll try to predict it." From the seemingly humble words of the camp director, he felt a sense of confidence. As soon as he finished speaking, he walked to the wall and said to the large military map hanging on the wall.

"Although the Japanese army retreated to Yichang has fallen, there are still 100,000 people, and their combat power cannot be underestimated. In my opinion, this Japanese army will definitely divide its troops back to rescue Hubei. As for the troops left in Yichang, it should have no less than one division. At present, our army can only use seven troops to attack Yichang. Facing a strong city with a high and deep trenches, our army will have another hard battle. Regardless of the victory or defeat, it is inevitable that it will last for a long time." The first sentence of the director of the camp poured a cup of cold water on the supreme authority. However, the supreme authority cannot admit that the director of the supreme authority has been analyzed.

Truth believing, although there were twelve armies in the Chinese military participating in this western Hubei battleground. However, as early as the early stage of the battle, the 79th Army, which was located in front of the battle, was annihilated by the Japanese army. When defending Yichang and Yidu, another army was injured and exhausted. And two armies were pulled to Hubei by Cheng Jiaji. This way, it was added and reduced. Then, the defensive forces required by Changyang, Sishi and other important places, the seven armies were indeed the limit of the force that the Chinese side could enter the battle to attack Yichang! Not to mention, there were many divisions and regiments in these seven armies, which were already scarred after a long battle.

"Once the main force of the Japanese army in western Hubei returns, it will form a three-way attack against Wuchang with the 68th Division in Puqi and the Hengshan Yong headquarters in Jiangbei. It is impossible to compete with the 48th Army's own strength." Hearing this, the supreme authorities could no longer sit still: "Kansheng, can we have no other way?"

"From a military perspective alone, it is best to withdraw the triangular area between Mianyang, Qianjiang and Jianli, who was alone in Wuchang to the delta of Mianyang, Qianjiang and Jianli." The director of the camp is indeed an excellent military strategist. If he really wants to do what he said, the 48th Army is not only out of danger, but also threatens Wuhan to the north, blocks the west, and supports the war in Yichang. It is truly a win-win situation.

But sadly, military is most of the time subject to politics.

"No! No! Have you ever thought about giving back the newly recovered Wuchang to the Japanese. Piaotian Novels What will we think of internationally? What will Americans think of us? What do Chinese people think of us? So, giving up Wuchang is absolutely unacceptable!" The strong opposition from the supreme authorities is equivalent to verdicting the death penalty for this plan proposed by the director of the camp.

Fortunately, the battalion director, who knew the thinking routine of the supreme authorities, also prepared a backup plan: "If you insist on not withdrawing troops from Hubei, you can only temporarily give up attacking Yichang, advance east from western Hubei to western Hubei and attack inside and outside the Forty-Eighth Army, and strive to defeat the main force of the 11th Japanese Army. In addition, you need to order the Ninth War Zone to send three to four armies to the north along the Guangdong-Han Railway. After defeating the 68th Japanese Division, which had been repeatedly attacked before, you will advance to Wuchang." The battalion director looked at the joyful supreme authorities and continued: "As long as there is no large arsenic at that time, our chances of victory should be more than 70%. However..."

"Jiansheng, you can say everything you have to do!" The supreme authority, who was so choked and not sad, urged anxiously.

"What worries me the most is not in Hubei?" The manager of the camp emphasized in a focused tone: "It's in Henan!"

"Where is the peace in the War Zone?" the supreme authorities asked in confusion.

"If our army had a decisive battle with the Japanese army on the Jianghan Plain, the Japanese army in the north would inevitably go south to support it. In that case, our troops stationed in Henan would be the first to bear the brunt. If they collapsed, the prospect of a war would be unimaginable." The director of the business always disliked the talent and character of someone who was the deputy commander of the First War Zone and the commander-in-chief of the Shandong-Suzhou-Anhui-Henan Border Region. He even said in front of the supreme authorities that this person was not even competent in being a division commander, let alone being an important center in charge.

"I personally supervise Kejian. He has many problems, but he can still fight! This was a good fight in the Battle of Xuzhou." Kejian, the Supreme Authority's words, was the commander of Tang's army during the Taierzhuang War in the past.

The Supreme Government asked the director of the camp with a smile: "Ci Xiu's physique is weak, and he has been working day and night for the past two months and his stomach has suffered from his stomach problems again. So, I want to ask you to act on behalf of the Sixth War Zone." Seeing that the director of the camp wanted to shirk, the Supreme Government added another sentence, "Even if I do me a favor!" The Supreme Government said that Minister Chen was sick was just an excuse. After all, this was a big deal, and the battlefield was divided into several offensive battles. Although he was diligent and down-to-earth in doing things, he was also very talented in politics. But he really couldn't rest assured General Chen, who really wanted to command thousands of troops but always won fewer victory or defeat more.

"If you have a heavy word, you will obey your duties." The Supreme Government said everything to this point, so the Xingjian Director said nothing! Besides, there has been no big battles in Guangdong and Guangxi in recent years, and he has been suffocated.

Later, the timely rain in Wuchang City could only be preserved.

Since entering Wuchang, Cheng Jiaji has been very busy. Tens of thousands of homeless refugees generated in the fire caused by the Japanese have to be resettled and relieved. In this battlefield in Wuchang, countless bodies left on the fire must be disposed of immediately. You must know that it is spring now, and Wuchang is adjacent to the river. At this time, the epidemic comes at once. Cheng Jiaji does not want his name to be associated with a great epidemic that transforms the Jianghan Plain into a ghost domain; Wuchang Zhou

Many people and gentry in the border areas who were unwilling to live in the occupied areas were already clamoring to follow the army south. Most of these people, old, young and young, are old, weak, women and children. If they don’t want to arrange them, they will not be able to get on the road at all. The Japanese army gathered in Wuchang and its surrounding areas, and all kinds of materials from a warehouse that had not been taken away. They should be counted clearly to facilitate packaging and taking them away; thousands of captured puppet troops were about to... In short, he was almost crazy.

However, a telegram from the Military Commission prompted the contents of the contents disrupted Cheng Jiaji's previous arrangements.

Cheng Jiaji doesn't care much about being appointed as the acting commander-in-chief of the group army. Anyway, the 48th Army is always in charge of the head of the 48th Army. It is just a false reputation. What really makes Cheng Jiaji feel a splitting headache and shocked is the sentence in the telegram to guard Wuchang and wait for support.

"Didn't it be agreed that attacking Wuchang is just a restraining military operation! Why did it become a desperate guard and wait for assistance? The life and death of the army and the survival of the country can be like this casually! If I had known it, it would be better not to defeat Wuchang!" Even the anger was angry, but Cheng Jiaji felt like a mirror in his heart. The person who controlled the survival of the country to a large extent did have the right to modify the combat plan.

But Cheng Jiaji also knew that with the current level of the Chinese army, as long as it does not make low-level mistakes, it is enough to fight defensive battles. Occasionally, one or two elite troops of the army will have some chance of winning. But a dozen troops will come up at once to fight such a strategic counterattack. Isn’t it a child running, and he will fall a lot!

What's more, once the battle starts, the Forty-Eighth Group Army will definitely be attacked on several sides and be trapped in the siege, and their life and death are all in the hands of friendly troops outside. Since the Anti-Japanese War, how many cases have Chinese troops fought to save each other? How many dangers are there!

Once, Cheng Jiaji was seriously considering whether he should do his own thing and withdrew from Wuchang as planned.

But the Supreme Government's broadcast declaration for China's determination to defend Wuchang to the death and regain Wuhan with all its might, Cheng Jiaji's idea was half eliminated. He was not afraid of losing his head because of disobedience, and used a head to exchange for the entire army's soldiers to turn the crisis into safety. At least, there was Cheng Jiaji who had lived and died on the battlefield! But he was afraid that his escape without a fight would eliminate the unprecedented confidence of the people in the nation's national victory due to Chongqing's high-profile propaganda and Wuchang's revival. He would immediately promise that the US government, which had always been a reality, would immediately speed up the process of the War of Resistance, which was enough to speed up the course of the War of Resistance, to run away.
