On October 12, the 21st Army, composed of the 5th, 18th, and 104th Divisions, under the command of General Guzhuang Ganlang, was supported by the 5th Fleet of the Navy and attacked Guangzhou. The Japanese army of more than 70,000 people and 27,000 horses successfully landed in Daya Bay, Guangzhou, and was like a bamboo all the way, connecting Tamsui, Huizhou, Boluo and Zengcheng, and had already attacked the suburbs of Guangzhou on the 21st. Yu Hanmou's 12th Army was defeated by the Japanese in just 10 days, so he ordered the defenders of Guangzhou to retreat, and Guangzhou fell on the afternoon of the 21st. Guangzhou was lost, the Guangdong-Hanzhou Railway was cut off, and Wuhan lost the value of heavy defense; China lost its last port to receive foreign aid......

The last German armament of the 71st Army, under the leadership of Song Xilian, also fought a bloody battle with the second army of the Japanese army in the aftermath of Dabie Mountain for half a month, the most well-preserved 36th Division only remained less than 800 people, and a large number of recruits just replenished by the 88th and 87th divisions also inherited the spirit of the German armament division, they were not afraid of death, the whole army suffered more than 15,000 casualties, resulting in more than 13,000 casualties of the 13th Division of the Japanese army, of which the commander of the 26th brigade was seriously injured, and two of the four wing commanders were killed and two were seriously injured; The swan song of the German armor division on the battlefield of resistance against Japan was completed; From the beginning of the Songhu Anti-Japanese War, Chiang Kai-shek's painstakingly managed German armament division troops were almost wiped out!

Chiang Kai-shek learned the lessons of the defense of Nanjing, did not want to be a lonely city, decided to abandon Wuhan, and abandoned the city on October 25. The Japanese army occupied Wuchang and Hankou on the 26th. On the 27th, Hanyang was occupied, and the battle for Wuhan ended.

The Japanese captured De'an on October 29, and the 32nd Army retreated to the Xiuyong line to rearrange its position for defense; The 19th Army defended on the north front of Nanchang, with the 70th, 49th, 79th, and 32nd armies and the 9th Reserve Division deployed side by side from the south bank of Xiushui east of Jixi to the west bank of Poyang Lake; Wang Lingji's 30th Army and the 72nd Army served as a defense in the Wuning area; The 8th and 73rd armies served as defenders near Henglu north of Wuning; The 13th, 18th, 92nd, 37th, and 52nd armies of the 31st Group Army served as garrisons in southern Hunan and northern Hunan; The 58th Army, the 60th Army, the newly formed 3rd Army and the 74th Army directly under the Theater of Operations of the 1st Group Army of Luhan are controlled in the Changsha, Liuyang, and Liling areas and are reserves.

And He Jianye was not idle, after experiencing the departure of a large number of grassroots officers and veterans; He Jianye, who was determined to rectify the troops, was rooted in the barracks; Together with Leng Qi, we will conduct intensive training for all officers above the platoon commander level, so that they can grow as soon as possible;

Of course, Leng Qi disagrees with this statement, basically He Jianye fishes for three days and dries nets for two days; In Leng Qi's words, He Jianye can always find a reason; There are basically three reasons: first, to increase the affection of people who go to the church hospital and the medical team to aid China, in case of emergency; (Obviously, I go to see a beautiful doctor every time, this is what Zeng Da said; Second, the Adjutant Office and the General Affairs Office have just been created, and they still have to be trained and managed; The third is to fight with the government for food and wages.

After such a long period of construction, the Nanchang Garrison Command, located east of East Lake, was finally completed; In addition to the barracks and watchtowers at the beginning, the new garrison headquarters added several two-story brick houses; one independent building for the gendarmerie, one separate building for the logistics department and warehouse; The remaining two buildings are occupied by the adjutant office, the telecommunications office, the general affairs office, the inspection office and other institutions, and the sign of the Nanchang Garrison Headquarters is hung at the door of the largest building;

In the war room of the garrison headquarters, He Jianye was discussing the training of the troops with Leng Qi; Several officers in the adjutant office in the back were refining and supplementing the map on the wall and the sand table in the middle of the conference table against the latest intelligence of the special service battalion; This time, He Fuchu really sent his younger brother a lot of talents, these people may not be suitable for the battlefield, and their role on the battlefield is at most the role of a squad leader or veteran; But here, their strengths are fully exploited;

"Commander, where are you messing around with these people? Each has its own unique skills! "Legasaki is very satisfied with the new officers of the Adjutant Office and the General Affairs Office, and the arrival of these people has reduced the pressure on Legasaki's work a lot;

"It's all found in the recruits, don't look at their military skills, but they are still competent for these jobs; So that's it! Tell the battalion and company commanders to be good at discovering the strengths of the brethren; If the strengths of all the brothers are discovered, and they can be cultivated and used, it will be of much better help to us than if we had a few more veterans on the battlefield. He Jianye said with a smile,

"Commander, Wuhan is lost, De'an has fallen; The devils are getting closer and closer to Nanchang, are we going to build fortifications outside the city now, ready to deal with the surprise attack of the devils? Leng Qi asked worriedly,

"We have no shortage of soldiers now, but officers! The original three infantry battalions have just been filled, and we have created eight new infantry battalions; What about officers? Without good grassroots officers, I am afraid that they will suffer heavy casualties when they go to battle! He Jianye said worriedly,

"Commanders, veterans, and officers are all produced on the battlefield; The battlefield is like a melting pot, and we may not be as strong as experiencing it once on the battlefield when we talk to them a hundred times on the training ground and in the classroom; I think it might be better to throw them directly into the battlefield so that the troops can be formed faster. As for casualties, they are inevitable! Leng Qi reminded,

"Now the troops around Nanchang who are confronting the devils are the troops of the Ninth War Zone, and our task is to garrison Nanchang City; Our first task is to purge Nanchang City, so that the intelligence personnel of spies and devils have nothing to hide; Only when the interior is sorted out can other things be considered. He Jianye said,

"Commander, do you have any plans?" Lenzaki asked,

"Inform Yang Xiaoshi and Chen Chun to come to the war room, just see what our eyes and ears can bring us;" He Jianye said,

"Adjutant Li, order Yang Xiaoshi of the Special Service Battalion and Chen Chun of the Inspection Department to come to the war room immediately!" Lenzaki commanded loudly,

Since the establishment of the organization and the war room, it has finally become a bit of a garrison command; There is no need to let the people of the guard company inform you of everything like in the field. And the phone in the headquarters was also installed, and soon Yang Xiaoshi and Chen Chun, who received the order, came to the war room.

"Commander, deputy commander!" When two men came in, they saluted and stood on one side;

"Well, it's been a few days since the spy battalion and the inspection department were established! I see you've been quite busy lately, what's the situation? He Jianye took the initiative to ask,

"Commander, after the fall of De'an, a large number of refugees from the Xiuyong front line came to Nanchang City one after another, according to the habits of devils, I suspect that there are a large number of devils and spies, and the special service battalion is scattered among the refugees in civilian clothes and is being investigated; There are no eyebrows yet! Yang Xiaoshi reported,

"Commander, there is a suspicious situation in our inspection department, but we can't be sure yet!" Chen Chun hesitated and said,

"Well, let's talk about it; It's okay if you're not sure, check it slowly! Lenzaki said,

"There is a new smoke house in Sanfu in Nanchang City, and one of my brothers accidentally discovered it; Recently, there are often well-dressed men and women coming in and out, and they don't look like smoking big cigarettes, and they often don't come out after entering; After the brothers reported to me, I specially sent additional men to keep an eye on the surroundings of the smoke house. But those who enter in the morning often leave through the back door the next day; Unlike other smokers, these people are in good spirits and well nourished, and they don't look like big smokers at all. Chen Chun said,

After hearing the news, He Jianye and Leng Qi exchanged glances with each other, feeling that there was a play; There must be something wrong with this smoke house!
