At this time, Yan Chenghan in Nanjing had also received a telegram from the General Command. His bitter face was finally a little better. [Full text reading.baoliny.]

The situation in Nanjing City is still pretty good now. After all, the Japanese army mobilized most of the troops to encircle and suppress Wuhan. Therefore, the war on the east side of Nanjing City almost stagnated.

However, the Japanese troops outside Nanjing still strengthened their defenses and tried to siege the city to death with the siege tactic.

This tactic is useful, but it is useless. At the beginning of Nanjing, Chiang Zhongzheng's plan was to engage in a protracted war. Chiang Zhongzheng's idea was that as long as the country did not lose its combat effectiveness, his combat effectiveness would be recognized by Britain and the United States.

At that time, it would be easy to ask for assistance, and at the same time, it could force the three northeastern provinces to provide some materials in the name of the War of Resistance. This abacus was very good, but unfortunately, Chiang Zhongzheng was worried about consuming the strength of his Central Army.

So except for some of the troops given were the Central Army, the rest of the troops were almost all pieced together. Even a large part of them were newly captured.

Such an army's combat effectiveness can be imagined. After some positions on the periphery of Nanjing fell, Chiang Zhongzheng's hesitant personality broke out again.

He asked Tang Shengzhi, who was guarding the city, to retreat directly, and Tang Shengzhi was not a fool. He forced Jiang Zhongzheng to call in person, and then he led his troops out of Nanjing City.

Although they evacuated, the supplies in the city were kept. At that time, almost everyone wanted to save their lives, but no one wanted to make the supplies.

Moreover, Tu Qianjun had already begun preparing for the battle in Nanjing early in the morning, and stored a large part of the materials in Nanjing through various channels.

"Damn, I almost thought the commander-in-chief forgot us..." Yan Chenghan opened his clothes and said with a smile to Feng Wenyao, the chief of staff of the Second Army of the Defense Forces directly under him.

The situation in Nanjing is not good now, and the Battle of Wuhan has ended. The Japanese army achieved the result of killing Chiang Zhongzheng, the chairman of the State Government. At the same time, more than 100,000 elite Central Army soldiers were buried on the battlefield in Wuhan.

This also included some elites from Dai Li's Military Control Commission. Although the Japanese army only obtained the broken and empty Wuchang City, their strategic goal was achieved.

The Central Army is temporarily unable to launch any form of attack on the Japanese army, and it is even extremely difficult to defend against the Japanese army. The troops in Henan, Hebei, Jiangxi and other places have been allocated.

These defense emptiness left to the Japanese army with large tracts of Chinese territory that could be easily occupied.

Eliminate the empty Wuchang City and the fleeing Central Army and the National Government. It can be said that the Central Front Army exceeded the tasks assigned by the Japanese Military Department.

So, what will the Japanese army do next?! Will they launch a fatal attack on Chongqing, or turn around and pull out the nail in Wuchang City?! No one can tell.

The war has reached now, and the second group in Nanjing City can be said to be exhausted. If all the front troops in Central China come to fight, Yan Chenghan asked himself that he had no ability to resist.

Moreover, the Japanese army did not stop sending troops to China. At least the information sent to Yan Chenghan everywhere included the Japanese troops landing in Shanghai.

However, due to the failure of the Beijing-Tianjin Battle, the Japanese army is now urgently dispatching troops to Shandong to support. This has put a lot of pressure on Nanjing.

But who can guess what the Japanese army thinks? If they suddenly choose to rush toward Nanjing, Yan Chenghan would have a headache. Now more than 100,000 Japanese troops outside Nanjing are still fine, but if there are more, it would be difficult to do it.

"Hahaha... the commander won't forget us, and the Japanese won't forget even more." Feng Wenyao sneered: "The Central China Front Army lost nearly 30,000 people here, and they may not be able to find this place."

"That's the reason." Yan Chenghan nodded and said to his partner: "How long can our supplies and ammunition last?!"

"There is not much ammunition, and if there are two fierce battles, it will probably be consumed." Feng Wenyao smiled bitterly and said, "There is still a lot of food, and the medicine is a little nervous."

Yan Chenghan was silent. He knew that the main force of the National Defense Forces was trying to open the channel from North China to Nanjing. But it obviously took time, and what Nanjing lacked the most now is time.

He remembered that Tu Qianjun talked to him before leaving and told him that he would guard alone this time. All the difficulties were told to Yan Chenghan, but at that time, Yan Chenghan thought he could hold on.

But now, it is not a simple sentence: if you can persist, you can persist.

The Japanese troops can continue to increase their troops, but they are trapped in Nanjing but they are difficult to reach even a little support. It has been more than a month since the war started.

The troops suffered huge losses, but fortunately there were soldiers from the former Central Army and young and strong people from Nanjing City as supplements. But this was never a solution. The training of new recruits consumed a lot.

In order to get the recruits into the state as soon as possible, Yan Chenghan had to use the method of veterans leading the recruits that the National Defense Forces had used to conduct comprehensive training.

Even so, the ammunition consumed is astronomical. The most terrifying thing is that Nanjing is now almost full of Japanese troops. No matter how breaking in any direction, it will eventually fall into the Japanese encirclement.

In other words, there may be a glimmer of hope to stay in Nanjing City. But if you try to break the encirclement, the isolated army of the Second Army may eventually be trapped in a heavy siege and annihilated.

But if you don’t break through, it depends on the movements of the Japanese army. Once the Japanese army chooses to remove the nail in Nanjing first, Yan Chenghan and the others can only helplessly welcome the mad attack of up to 400,000 Japanese troops.

"I'll go to his grandma..." After holding it in for a long time, Yan Chenghan could only say such a swear word. There is no way. He can't let the guerrillas in northern Jiangsu directly attack the Japanese positions, right?!

Although it is now full of plans, there are more than 10,000 guerrillas in northern Jiangsu. However, it still takes some time for them to form a combat power like a national defense force.

At this time, letting them attack the Japanese positions is tantamount to death.

"Why can't we fight the Japanese?! I think we can fight!" Huang Bamei jumped up directly in the conference room and shouted at Huo Qingyun, the commander-in-chief of the Northern Jiangsu guerrillas: "The situation in Nanjing is so bad now. Those are all bloody men! How can we just watch them fight by themselves?"

Huo Qingyun looked at Huang Bamei's strange face and turned to look at Liu Yunjiao. This made Liu Yunjiao want to stuff his head into his crotch. He didn't expect that Huang Bamei would react so much.

Just now, Huo Qingyun introduced the current situation in Nanjing City and told everyone that they are planning to block the Japanese army's logistics forces at various points.

But Huang Bamei quits, she thinks that if she wants to do it, she will do something big! Liu Yunjiao has already told her about the bloody battle in Nanjing. From the bottom of her heart, Huang Bamei admires the soldiers of the National Defense Army who fought in Nanjing.

Now that I know that the soldiers are in trouble, I naturally want to use some force to open the gap.

"Captain Huang Detachment. We also want to break through the Japanese encirclement and rescue our comrades." Huo Qingyun couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw Liu Yunjiao's appearance, so he had to say to Huang Bamei himself: "But the current situation does not allow us to do this!"

"The Japanese army surrounded Nanjing City, as many as 100,000 troops. There are now a large number of fortifications built on layers and now we have no heavy firepower, and even if we have, we have no experience in combating large corps."

Huo Qingyun is very patient. In fact, Huo Qingyun is very impressed by Huang Bamei. He is also from the martial arts world and has a natural sense of closeness to such grass-roots characters.

"Captain Huang, tell me how many of us have experience in combating corps? How many of us have attacked large cities?!"

"The Japanese army now has various weapons including aircraft, 155 heavy artillery, 125 heavy machine guns, tanks, armored vehicles, etc., as well as complete fortification bunkers. They are soldiers, both in training and military quality are stronger than us, and their troops are as high as more than 100,000. Do you think it is beneficial for us to fight hard with them now?!"

When Huang Bamei heard this, she was stunned and blushed and said, "I... I'm a little reckless. Please forgive me if the commander-in-chief." As she said that, she wanted to hold her fists in habit, but then she stopped and changed to a military salute.

"Hahaha... Captain Huang is also eager to kill the enemy. I personally admire this." Huo Qingyun has now grown into a commander, and he has learned to coordinate the relationship between himself and his subordinates.

This is a process of growth, a process of a low-level commander turning to a general.

"Our original mission was to ensure the safety of the people in the guerrilla area and to mobilize the people to launch guerrilla war against the Japanese army. But now due to the trapped troops in Nanjing, our mission was one more layer. It was to harass the Japanese supply line and try to reduce the pressure on the defenders in Nanjing."

Huo Qingyun paused, and saw everyone listening carefully to his words and then smiled: "So, everyone can express their opinions now. See how we coordinate the logistics of ambushing and attacking the Japanese army in their respective defense zones."

The National Defense Force recruited guerrillas in northern Jiangsu. Not all of them were recruited. In fact, we had already figured out the situation here everywhere.

Nanjing to Shanghai and other places were originally the bases of the Wangyajiao Axe Gang. Here, countless people under his command were lurking openly or secretly. After receiving funds and complete training from the three northeastern provinces, Wangyajiao was like a tiger and developed stronger forces from northern Jiangsu to Shanghai.

Therefore, we were able to collect information about various water camps and water bandits in the morning. Which ones were teams like Ertou Mountain, and which ones were unethical bandits and robbers.

The Japanese army had already left the ground. Later, the Japanese army came over. As expected, these people had to join forces. Some of them really wanted to fight against Japan, and some were selling dog meat under the guise of sheep.

Taking this opportunity to try to make money from the national crisis, we also continued to loot under the pretext of resisting Japan.

When Huo Qingyun and his friends arrived in northern Jiangsu, the first thing they did was to contact those teams that had been designated everywhere with anti-Japanese intentions. Then, they were to clean up the messy so-called "loyalty and righteous rescue".

There are many carrots and sticks. Those who are willing to join the National Defense Force will not only receive weapons provided by the National Defense Force, but also receive professional military training.

Of course, they need to accept the concept of the National Defense Forces. The three major disciplines and eight points of attention were also brought here.

With Huo Qingyun and his team's skills, it is not too easy to annihilate those small groups of water bandits. In just half a month, the "loyalty and righteous rescue" in northern Jiangsu was basically eliminated.

The rest were all reorganized and formed the Defense Forces Northern Jiangsu Anti-Japanese Guerrillas. In addition to the original commanders, the Defense Force also sent its own people as their deputy to help them train and reorganize the troops.

Liu Yunjiao arrived in northern Jiangsu under this situation and met Huang Bamei under this situation.

"Commander Huo. That's what I think. First of all, we can ambush the Japanese army from all aspects, but I think appropriately we can attack some cities occupied by the Japanese army."

Liu Yunjiao recovered at this time and said to Huo Qingyun: "We need to fight to get in with our troops, but at the same time, if we want to relieve pressure from Nanjing, it is also a good choice to attack some Japanese troops occupying cities with fewer troops."

Huo Qingyun heard Liu Yunjiao say this and kept nodding, signaling Liu Yunjiao to continue talking. In Huo Qingyun's opinion, this is a good idea.

"My opinion is that our troops are not good at attacking now, but because there are many locals, we can consider sneak attacks." Seeing that Huo Qingyun was interested in his proposal, Liu Yunjiao was more confident.

"We can lurk in the city first, and then open the city gate at night to launch an attack." Liu Yunjiao spoke more and more fluently. His energetic appearance once again made Huang Bamei's eyes full of autumn waves.

"In the night, our scattered soldiers are most likely to exert their combat effectiveness. At the same time, the heavy weapons of the Japanese army cannot play a big role. As long as the tactics are appropriate, we can capture some towns."

After a pause, Liu Yunjiao looked at everyone and said, "Also, we can concentrate our troops to capture some towns with fewer garrisons first."

"But before attacking the town, it is still necessary to attack the Japanese supply troops. We must first force the Japanese army to mobilize a large number of troops to escort their supplies, so that the troops stationed in the town will be reduced. On the one hand, this will help us train our team through combat, and on the other hand, it will not only weaken the Japanese army but also seize their supplies."

It was not a waste of time for Liu Yunjiao to follow Tu Qianjun. Tu Qianjun would guide him from time to time some guerrilla tactics and tactics. All of these were reflected in Liu Yunjiao's mind.

This is also the reason why he was sent to northern Jiangsu. He needs to test his learning achievements in practice.

"Okay! Very good! Instructor Liu's proposal is very good!" Huo Qingyun said with a laugh: "Do you have any objections?"

Everyone smiled and shook their heads, feeling that this Instructor Liu was worthy of being the person who was following the Commander-in-Chief. His vision and way of thinking about problems were extraordinary!

"Okay! Now let's discuss the cooperation plan for combat in various places..."

As the discussion deepened, a set of cooperation plans were gradually introduced. This was the benefit of practical command after complete study and training. Huo Qingyun easily took out a plan for cooperation between departments.

It includes the attacks, retreat routes and hidden support between the various divisions using regional joint launches. At the same time, the distribution of spoils was finalized.

After a few efforts, the meeting was over. Under the leadership of the detachment leader and instructor, each department went back to repair and mobilize, and prepared to carry out a comprehensive guerrilla war against the Japanese army.

"Woo~ Kerala..." A team of Japanese trucks were driving on the mountain road. They were transport teams heading to Nanjing to replenish food and ammunition.

This squadron is a reinforcement squadron. Most of the more than ten transport vehicles are filled with rice and some canned food. At the same time, there are various types of shells and light and heavy machine gun ammunition.

The person who commanded this squadron was Captain Endo Toru of the Japanese Central Front.

Captain Endo Tetsu's face looked extremely ugly on the transport truck in the middle. The soldiers around him did not dare to provoke this captain with a bad temper.

"Ma Lu!! I don't understand why Master Grandpa sent us to perform such a boring task! Our squadron should appear in Nanjing City or Wuhan! We are going to do what we need to do for military achievements!"

The deputy squadron deputy Tomoka Ouchi complained to the squadron leader Captain Endo Tetsu, and said, "That guy Maruyama Tomoka has been promoted from Warrant Officer to Captain! He just participated in the Wuhan Battle, but we..."

"Okay! The mission of the Imperial is to execute orders, not to complain!" Squadron leader Endo Tetsu said in a deep voice: "Our current mission is to escort these supplies to the position outside Nanjing City. For the rest, I will apply to the Grand Master after I come back."

In fact, Endo Tsuki himself knew that this was just perfunctory. His superior commander, Captain Maj. Sugita, could only be stationed in Jurong, so how could he have the opportunity to dispatch himself to the battlefield?!

But what can he do?! He can only comfort his subordinates like this, but in fact he is also very upset. The last time he saw him, Tomoka Maruyama, who had to salute him, is now at the same level as him! What's this?!

After Ouchi was told by the squadron leader, he muttered and stopped talking.

"Okai, cheer up! Recently, there seems to be a small Chinese army constantly raiding our supply line. This has caused great losses. Master Sugita is very unhappy. He asked us to escort the supplies."

Endo Tetsu said in a deep voice to his squadron deputy: "Don't take advantage of the Chinese troops, otherwise it will be difficult for you and me to explain to the captain!"

"Hayi!" Ouchi responded, but he didn't agree. He was a squadron! Those Chinese troops just dared to touch the squad and attacked themselves? Unless they wanted to die.

"Boom! Boom!! Boom..." Just after the response from the big net, a series of loud noises suddenly came from the highway! Several leading Japanese transport vehicles exploded on the spot.

"Enemy attack!! Everyone gets off the car!!" Captain Endo Takashi reacted very quickly, and roared with a shrill roar and rushed off the car that had just stopped on the brakes.

The battle started in the valley!
