When Bai Fei heard that Yang Sen and Song Kentang had abandoned their positions privately, that the Tujiabu defense line had been broken without attack, and that the 101st Division had easily crossed the Xiuhe River, his heart suddenly felt cold.

When Wang Weiguo heard the report, he analyzed: "As soon as the Japanese army crossed the river, they came straight at us, and it seems that they wanted to cooperate with the Japanese troops on the eastern water to encircle and annihilate us here. If the depth of the open area is deep enough to come and go freely, we naturally do not need to be afraid of them with our firepower, but now Wucheng is surrounded by water on both sides and the terrain is narrow, and the land is crisscrossed by waterways, which is very unfavorable for us to conduct mobile operations, so once the Japanese army invades us and cuts off our retreat, and then like the Japanese fleet on Poyang Lake in the east, we will attack with long-range firepower layer by layer, I am afraid that the consequences will be unimaginable..."

Liu Changsheng said on the side: "I agree with Brother Wei Guo's analysis, now the situation is urgent, and we are no longer allowed to think about anything else, just judging from the movements of the little devil fleet in the past few days, their intentions have been very obvious, and they know our weaknesses very well, and their purpose is nothing more than to trap us here, if my prediction is right, the devils who are advancing east from Tujiabu are only the first wave, if we continue to stay here, I am afraid that there will be more and more Japanese troops who come to encircle and annihilate us." ”

Bai Fei groaned and said, "What do you mean by withdrawing troops?" ”

Wang Weiguo and Liu Changsheng glanced at each other, and both nodded.

Bai Fei asked the others what they thought again.

Li Hudao, the captain of the special operations team, said: "Tuanzuo, I am also in favor of retreating, now that the defense line of the river has existed in name only, it is really unwise for us to be alone here." What's more, even if we continue to stay here, I'm afraid it won't help, and now the little devils on the lake in the east refuse to go ashore, and we can't go into the water, so it won't play a role in drying up here. ”

Bai Fei listened to everyone's words, but he didn't say anything, he was still pondering. However, at this time, a communicator ran over quickly with a radio device on his back: "Tuanzuo, Battalion Commander Liu on the other side of the lake is calling. ”

Bai Fei took the microphone, but heard Liu Zhen's eager voice from inside: "Tuanzao, the Japanese army on the lake has just turned the bow of the ship, and suddenly launched a fierce artillery bombardment on Duchang, and used artillery fire to cover, now a large number of ships are approaching Songmen Island, Da Ji Mountain and other places, it seems that they plan to pass through the Songmen Island Lake area, what should we do?" ”

Bai Fei was shocked in his heart and secretly shouted to himself. It turned out that when the Japanese army on Poyang Lake used a large number of naval guns to carry out a large-scale bombardment of the waterfront areas of Wucheng and other places the day before yesterday, they had already completely destroyed the bunkers they had built on both sides of the narrow waters of Songmen Island to attack Japanese ships. In this regard, Bai Fei has been worried for the past few days that the Japanese ships will take advantage of this to move south, and once they enter the vast waters south of Poyang Lake, no matter where they can land, they can then use any place as an excellent place for them to land, and then attack the defenders of the Xiuhe defense line from behind.

To put it simply, the waters of Songmen Island are equivalent to a "gate" on Poyang Lake, Bai Fei originally installed a lot of mechanisms on the door, but later these mechanisms were destroyed by devils, that is, they can be unimpeded. It's just that the little devil didn't enter this gate before, but chose to continue to fight with Bai Fei in Wucheng, until now there are other little devils who have freed up their hands to come over from the side to help, and the Japanese army on the lake quickly passed through this gate, the purpose is obviously aimed at Bai Fei and his direct regiment, intending to outflank and cut off his back road.

In view of this, Bai Fei finally no longer hesitated, and immediately ordered Liu Zhen to abandon Duchang and make a detour along the east bank of Poyang Lake in the direction of Nanchang. At the same time, he asked his subordinates to send a telegram in his name to the Ninth Theater Command and Luo Zhuoying, who was sitting in Nanchang, explaining his environment and surrounding situation, and sending a request for evacuation.

Who knew that the telegram had been sent for a long time, but it was like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was no response.

When Bai Fei was anxiously waiting for a callback, a herald came over to report: "Tuanza, news has come from the west, the forward troops of the 101st Division and the 106th Division of the Japanese Army have occupied Fengxin County and Anyi County respectively ten minutes ago..."

"What? This... What do the defenders eat? Bai Fei was taken aback, Anyi County was already on the edge of Nanchang, and the straight-line distance was only twenty kilometers, and the Japanese army's progress was too fast!

While Bai Fei was shocked in his heart, he hated the incompetence of the defenders even more.

"It is reported that the Japanese army's forward chariot squad suddenly appeared outside the south gate of Fengxin and occupied the Luhe Bridge, and the defenders hastily withdrew, and even the nearly forty cannons deployed outside were not stored or blown up, and were captured by the Japanese army!"

"Bastard!" The more Bai Fei listened, the more angry he became, and he punched the tree next to him, even breaking the skin of his hand.

"What about the defenders, where have they gone?"

The herald continued: "Liu Duoquan's 49th Army, Xia Chuzhong's 79th Army, and Li Jue's 70th Army successively withdrew to Shanggao, and Song Kentang's 32nd Army retreated to Nanchang, and Yang Sen led his troops to Tonggu. ”

"Fuck, more than a dozen divisions, let the little devils run around with less than 20,000 people, rubbish, all fucking rubbish!"

Bai Fei scolded angrily, and Wang Weiguo persuaded on the side: "Zhenyu, at this point, it is useless to say more, and our situation is not optimistic at the moment, it is better to make a decision as soon as possible." ”

Bai Fei said angrily: "Withdraw!" Withdraw now! Love whoever you are! Fuck, so many of them run away as soon as they hit it, counting on us to stay here and hold on, how many nails can we get even if we are all iron? Retreat, retreat now! ”

Bai Fei was really angry, so he simply didn't wait for any call back, and directly ordered to retreat. With an order, the regiment under its command finally began to evacuate.

Because Wucheng is close to Poyang Lake, the surrounding water system is developed, there are thousands of ravines, and there are canals and rivers everywhere, so the road is difficult to travel. The troops withdrew on a large scale, and the others were the most troublesome, Wu Dazhong's artillery battalion. Although the weight of the 107 rocket launcher is only a few hundred kilograms, it is much lighter than other cannons, but because the roads are complex and it is inconvenient to walk, the retreat of the artillery battalion still slows down the evacuation of the entire team.

When they reached the Changyi area, the news came that the Japanese army had occupied most of the north bank of the Ganjiang River, and the Japanese army on Poyang Lake had completely occupied Wucheng and Duchang, and had sent troops along both sides of the Ganjiang River to catch up with them.

Bai Fei was bored and silent along the way, and when he learned that there was a tail behind him, he shouted: "It's good to come, Lao Tzu is in a bad mood, just to take your anger out." ”

As he spoke, he immediately ordered his troops to speed up their march and deploy when they arrived in the vicinity of Lianwei Town, and conducted an ambush operation against the Japanese pursuing troops. The Japanese pursuing force was defenseless and caught off guard, and the battle ended in less than three minutes, with more than 1,100 people wiped out except for a part of the fleeing Japanese troops.

Bai Fei breathed a sigh of relief, and the whole person became more energetic, and ordered the troops to continue to march towards Nanchang.

However, what people didn't expect was that at this time in Nanchang, there was a turmoil waiting for him.
