On the afternoon of March 26, Song Kentang, who received the telegram, decided to give up Lehua, but the fierce battle was in full swing during the day, and it was estimated that it would not be easy to get out! The breakthrough plan was set for the evening, retreat directly from the south, and run along the avenue to the bull line, he knew that He Jianye was here to set up defenses, and he would be much safer from the cattle line to the west;

And Gao'an's 74th Army is still struggling to defend Gao'an, covering the retreat of the main forces in the theater of operations! The devil's 106th Division is not in a hurry for Gao'an, as long as Nanchang is taken, Gao'an's defenders will naturally withdraw!

He Jianye has been building fortifications around the two county towns for five days since he took over the defense of Niu Xing and Jianxin, the devils have artillery and aircraft to help the war, and the only way to stop the devils here is to rely on street fighting, if they fight in the field outside the city, I am afraid that more than 5,000 people led by He Jianye will suffer heavy casualties!

"The little devil's tank appeared in the Wanshou Palace, and your spy battalion went forward to probe the situation; Go and see the situation of Lehua, I am too worried about the 32nd Army now! He Jianye pointed to Lehua in front of Niu Xing and said,

Tujiabu, Lehua, and Niuhang are connected by the Nanxun Railway, if it weren't for the destruction of the Nanxun Railway when the 32nd Army retreated from Tujiabu, the Devil's Heavy Artillery Wing would have gone down along the Nanxun Railway;

"Order the 41st Wing of the Independent Engineer to quickly rush through the railway from Tujiabu to Lehua, and our heavy artillery wing cannot just see the car He Toma advancing on the road! That speed can't keep up with the speed of the infantry's attack! ”

Similarly, at the headquarters of the 11th Army in Wuhan, Gangcun Ningci is also working to solve the road problem, and the 101st Division in the Lehua area is the most convenient, relying on the Nanxun Railway, which can solve the problem of rapid transportation of ammunition and heavy artillery, but the people of China destroyed the railroad tracks and roadbed on a large scale when they retreated, which made Gangcun Ningci have a headache!

Similarly, in the Wanshou Palace, seven infantry battalions and two anti-aircraft battalions took advantage of the night to urgently build anti-aircraft bunkers! If there are not enough trees, they cut them down from the nearby mountains, and when they touch a big tree, they directly put explosives on them!

The "boom" explosives were put into the bottom of several stems, and a big tree fell down in an instant, and after removing the branches, the whole root was lifted to the position, and at this time it finally reflected the advantage of the strength of the number of people!

In the early morning of March 27, Song Kentang issued an order to retreat, and the remnants of the two divisions plus all the people in the military headquarters, a total of more than 15,000 people, put up a long queue, and the horses were chewed, and there were no torches! The soldiers of one regiment opened the way in front, in the middle were hundreds of wagons with their baggage and wounded, and the rest of the troops followed behind! All the way to the cow line!

Yang Xiaoshi brought a platoon of scouts, and took advantage of the dark night to advance towards Lehua, according to the order, they were going there to see the situation!

"Whew, whew!" On the dark avenue, there was a violent sound of running, Yang Xiaoshi raised his fist, and the more than thirty brothers in the queue all stopped;

"Battalion commander, listen! There was the sound of a large group of people marching on the avenue ahead, but there were no torches, and it seemed that they were advancing while it was dark! "A brother ran near,

"Hide in place!" Yang Xiaoshi ordered,

Now it is unclear whether it is the 32nd Army or the devils who have bypassed the Lehua attack, and the brothers have hidden in the bushes beside the road, waiting for this group of men and horses of unknown origin to approach; The waiting time was long, and the brothers in the bushes did not dare to move, and they had to keep an eye on the movements around them, and if it was a devil, there would definitely be traces of scouts......

"Damn, this is the 32nd Army of Lehua! How did you get here? Half an hour later, Yang Xiaoshi looked at the team passing slowly on the road and muttered,

"Looking at the posture, the devils are all evacuated from Lehua! Monkey, you have fast legs! Go to the reeds and immediately go back to report to the commander; I'll take my brothers to Lehua to have a look! Yang Xiaoshi ordered,

"Yes, battalion commander be careful!" The monkey, now a veteran, put away his sniper rifle and cautiously touched the south in the bushes, for the procession on the avenue had been passing by, and the monkeys did not dare to make any movement in the bushes to alarm them; But it was much better to go farther, and in the night breeze the monkey spread its feet, and jumped and ran through the reeds to the oxen.

"Bang, bang...... Commander, the monkeys of the Secret Service Battalion have returned; He Jianye was already asleep, and he knocked on the door softly and shouted outside the door,

"What's the situation?" It seems that He Jianye is lying in his clothes, so he opened the door directly and asked, He Jianye's command post in Niuhang is located in the original military headquarters of the 32nd Army, this is a big mansion, the living room of the house is used as a war room, and the bedroom next to it has become a lounge for the headquarters personnel;

"We met the Thirty-second Army near the High Chair Hill, and the men and horses of the brigade were coming along the road towards the oxen; Battalion Commander Yang judged that they had given up on Lehua, and Battalion Commander Yang took a battalion to check the situation! The monkey pointed to the map and said,

"Well, let's go rest!" He Jianye said,

"Notify all the battalion commanders to come over for a meeting, is the artillery battalion of Huang Wujun in place?" He Jianye asked,

"Just arrived in Xinjian!" Adjutant Li also came out of the lounge and replied,

"Inform all the battalion commanders to come over for a meeting, and the Thirty-second Army is gone; We're going to have to readjust our setup! He Jianye said,

Xinjian and Niu Xing are only five kilometers away, Xinjian is just a small county town, Niu Xing is the station of Nanxun Railway in Nanchang, and the location here is related to whether the devil can enter Nanchang smoothly! As long as the devil occupies Niuhang Station, He Jianye can only blow up the Zhongshan Bridge and retreat into Nanchang City!

Huang Wujun rode his horse for less than half an hour to Niuxing, the temporary war room was already brightly lit, and nine infantry battalion commanders and He Jianye were waiting for him;

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Battle of Nanchang has begun now; Niu Xing is the beginning of our peripheral defense, and the goal is to give enough damage to the devils in the area of Niu Xing, Xinjian and Wanshou Palace on the periphery, so that they can leave enough blood! Wait for the devils to go crazy, and then we will enter Nanchang and fight with them in the streets! Here, fight with the devil! He Jianye stared at the ten officers sitting and said,

"Commander, how to fight; Just give the order! "Sheng Hai is already eager to try!

"We have a total of nine battalions in the first line of Niuhang and Xinjian, the Xinjian county is behind Niuhang, and there is the cover of Wanshou Palace in the south, Wanshou Palace and Niuxing are not lost, and it is safe here! In Niuhang, we have a total of five infantry battalions! The train station is the focus! The devil must be salivating here! Sheng Hai, your third battalion of infantry is staring at the railway station, giving you the right to call for artillery support at any time! He Jianye said,

"Yes, Commander; The railroad tracks, sleepers, and so on in the train station are all mine, and that's a good thing to build a bunker! Sheng Hai stood up and said,

"It's all yours, all the rails are ripped, and everyone can use them; Since the Thirty-Second Army came on foot; They don't need railways anymore! He Jianye said,
