"KaKaKa..." Several tanks were blown up, but the continuous tanks continued to surge towards the position. The Japanese army went crazy and attacked the position with no chance.

Several small tanks were all sent to the front line and fought to the Central Army's position!

The Central Army's positions were constantly shrinking backwards, not because they were not brave enough, but because the Japanese attack was too crazy. Under such desperate style of fighting, the Central Army, which was already at a disadvantage in equipment, retreated completely.

A new regiment supporting the position of the Central Army was bombarded by Japanese artillery fire on the way. Those who rushed to the position were facing the strafing of Japanese tanks and heavy machine guns.

But the Central Army has no way out. Not to mention that even the general army has to join the rushing team due to the situation. But the effect of this kind of battle can be imagined.

The tanks in front of them were destroyed, but what awaited them were more Japanese tanks and those Japanese grenade launchers and heavy machine gun troops that were culling up.

In the air-raid shelter in Wuchang City, Chen Cheng whispered to Chiang Zhongzheng with a look of smoke on his face: "Principal, it is the most critical time now. The bombing of the Japanese tank troops and planes is too fierce. I guess we can't defend Wuchang City. Please make plans early..."

Jiang Zhongzheng's face was gloomy and he pursed his lips and said nothing. What could he say?! This is the situation now. All his air force was killed, and the current airspace in Wuchang City is full of Japanese people.

As for why the Japanese attacked like crazy, he knew in his heart. The Japanese wanted to completely annihilate him and then free up their hands to deal with the tiger.

But Chiang Zhongzheng was still struggling. If someone took the blame, it would be fine. But he was in charge of Wuchang City and lost the soldiers below to escape. After this was reported, he would definitely have no prestige.

What's more, the Japanese are now blocking the various places, and they have broken through several times and are beaten back by the Japanese. The large number of Japanese ships on the river are patrolling day and night, and even a small shipboard is not enough to shoot.

Jiang Zhongzheng did not speak, and no one dared to speak. Chen Bulei and Yang Yongtai exchanged a wink. In the end, Yang Yongtai spoke to Jiang Zhongzheng.

"Chairman, the mountain is not worried about firewood. The situation is now very critical. The chairman himself is the safety of the party and the country. It should not be ignored. Changqing thinks that it is best to find ways to get out of this dangerous place..."

Jiang Zhongzheng smiled bitterly. It was not the first time he thought so. But where is there a safe passage to go?! It was blocked everywhere, and even gunboats were on the river.

A rash breakthrough may be just a sheep entering the tiger's mouth.

"Chairman, we originally thought about guarding against reinforcements. However, now the battle situation is that the reinforcements have not arrived and the Japanese offensive is in full swing. Our troops have failed, so we should retreat to wait for the future..."

Chiang Zhongzheng knew that Yang Yongtai's words told him: It was unsafe to retreat at that time, and it was likely to lead to the collapse of the entire Wuhan defenders. In addition, if there were more than 200,000 troops in Wuhan, it might not be safe if they were exposed to the Japanese offensive.

Therefore, considering that the war of defense in Wuhan was launched at that time. But the situation is different now. The Japanese army has already attacked like crazy. More than 200,000 defenders in Wuhan have now filled in at least 100,000!

If this continues, Wuhan will fall within a week or even three to five days at most. The Japanese reinforcements are already on the way, and Hu Zongnan and Tang Enbo's troops are fighting with it and cannot withdraw their support.

There are only two people who stay in Wuhan now: waiting to die.

There are risks when you walk, you may die, but after all, there is a glimmer of hope. If you stay, then there is no doubt that the city will be broken by the Japanese army. After the city is broken, you can think of any fate waiting for Chiang Chiang to prove.

"Chang Qing... what do you think? Tell me it." After a long silence, under the rumbling sound of cannons, Jiang Zhongzheng sighed deeply and said to Yang Yongtai.

Yang Yongtai turned his face and looked at Chen Cheng, and the meaning was very clear: I have already opened this mouth, you should do the rest.

"Principal, the rhetoric daring suggests you disguise yourself for disguise." Chen Cheng paused and said to Chiang Zhongzheng: "We have found several pastors. They are British. We can contact the British and let the British and Japanese communicate with them to pick up their expatriates. The principal also asks for a temporary grievance, disguise as a servant and accompany them to withdraw from Wuhan..."

There are numerous churches, Dongzheng Church, Gothic Church, etc. in Wuhan. Among them, the more famous ones are Hankou Orthodox Church, Wuchang St. Michael's Church, Xianzhengjie Catholic Church, Hankou Rongguang Church, Hankou Savior Hall... and so on.

With a large number of churches, a large number of pastors are naturally indispensable. Because of the outbreak of the Battle of Songhu, most of the pastors in churches have now evacuated with their own troops.

Only a small number of them remained and were responsible for taking care of the wounded soldiers of the Central Army.

It has to be said that Chen Cheng's method is excellent. What can be passed through the Yangtze River now is nothing more than ships with British and American flags. As long as these pastors make requests, Britain will definitely move.

The Japanese could not make things difficult for Britain for this matter. At most, they would check it and let it go. This gave Chiang a chance to prove it. Although this matter also has risks, the risk is the smallest compared to breaking through.

"Chairman. The rhetoric said very well. Changqing also believes that it is safest to break through in this way." Yang Yongtai was still hesitant when he saw that Chiang Zhongzheng was still hesitant, and then said.

"Chairman, the son of a thousand gold cannot be held in the hall! Moreover, in this way, we can mislead the Japanese army and make them think that the chairman is still in Wuhan. They are not paying much attention. The chairman takes the opportunity to break through and command the army to lift the siege of Wuhan..."

Yang Yongtai and the others also had their own ideas. In fact, the reason why the Japanese army attacked so crazy was nothing more than to wipe out the main force of the Central Army and to kill Chiang Zhongzheng.

If Chiang Kai-shek is no longer in Wuhan, the Japanese offensive will naturally slow down. Chiang Kai-shek who escaped can return to Chongqing to command the army to launch an attack on the Japanese army directly from the periphery.

Although the Japanese army's attack is fierce now, these troops are already the only ones that can fight directly among the attacking Chinese troops. The remaining troops either surrounded them during their trip to Nanjing or fought in Tianjin.

Hundreds of thousands of Central Army attacked from the periphery, and the Japanese army lost another strategic goal, then there was a great possibility that they would automatically retreat. Even if the Japanese army continued to attack, the probability of breaking through Wuhan would be greater under the attack inside and outside.

Without Chiang Kai-shek's license on the periphery, many troops could not be mobilized at all. Only when Chiang Kai-shek's license was released can more troops be mobilized to fight.

By comparison, it seems that Chiang Zhongzheng's situation would be better if he leaves Wuhan. But Yang Yongtai could not say it explicitly, Chiang Zhongzheng himself knew it.

After a long silence, Jiang Zhongzheng finally whispered: "Rhetorical...you go and arrange it!"

"Principal! Don't worry, I'll leave it to me!" Chen Cheng nodded, then went down to find the pastors to send a newspaper to the UK. Half an hour later, a telegram was sent to the British Consul in China.

The telegram came from Wuhan, and was sent by five British pastors who stayed in Wuhan. They said in the telegram that Chairman Chiang Chiang-Chengdu received them and told them that the Japanese attack was getting fiercer.

The chairman himself planned to live and die with the entire Wuhan City. As a merciful Christian, the chairman decided to let them and some believers withdraw from this dangerous area.

Therefore, they asked them to telegram to the British Consulate and request communication and coordination between the British Consulate and Japan, and search for ships so that they could evacuate Wuhan safely.

The British consul who received the telegram was so angry that he cursed in his heart: Damn, what's this?! They were asked to withdraw because of some danger. As a result, these charlatans were unwilling to die. Now they figured it out. But will the Japanese withdraw you?!

Last time they even exploded the ships of the United States and Mobil Oil Company. This time they can still let you come here easily?! Do you really think this is your vegetable market?!

But these pastors are not simple characters, and this is related to the face of the UK. The consul could only forward the telegram back to the UK.

Chamberlain was very happy. He found the American consul and hoped that American ships could pick up British expatriates. At the same time, it was explained that these expatriates were all pastors.

Later, Chamberlain found the German consul and telegraphed it to the current German Foreign Minister Ribbentrop, asking him to communicate with Japan as an intermediary.

Hitler met Hiroshima again and invited him to dinner together were all public. Chamberlain obviously smelled that Japan was trying to establish a good relationship with Germany, so it would be better to leave this matter to Germany than to Britain himself.

Ribintrov agreed immediately, and then found Hiroshima Oshima. Hiroshima did not dare to neglect, so he quickly sent a telegram to Tokyo. Tokyo had no objection, so why not sell it to a few priests?!

Moreover, the Japanese Army is a pro-German faction and is not opposed to this matter.

Therefore, this matter was resolved in just five hours. The Japanese army agreed to the application of the British pastor to evacuate Wuhan, but required that the ships be inspected.

The UK felt that although this condition was a little harsh, it was acceptable. The two sides agreed that the US merchant ship would rush to Wuhan to pick up the three people early the next morning.

When Jiang Zhongzheng received the news, he was obviously relieved. After disguising himself, he secretly left his office in the air-raid shelter as Chen Cheng and others.

None of this alarmed anyone. With Chiang Kai-shek going with him, some of the Military Control Commission and the Guards. Most of the Chairman's Guards and Officers stayed...
