Although Zhou Shanjun was shocked, his innate vigilance made him discover the subtle changes in the hunchback Wang, and he immediately became a little more vigilant against the seemingly ordinary, but actually tricky person.

"Hey, did you hear what I said?"

Zhou Shanjun's daze annoyed Wang Yanru, she thought that this guy didn't listen to her words. How did she know that at this moment, Zhou Shanjun's heart was like boiling hot water, constantly struggling and repeating. Originally, he didn't approve of kidnapping a woman himself, but after receiving the task, he planned to make this order ruthlessly, but when he found out that the person he wanted to kidnap was standing in front of him alive, he didn't know what to do for a while.

Although this girl is rude and willful, and she is also very domineering, after these two encounters, he found that even if she was born in a noble family, this girl did not have the slightest pampered anger, let alone bully ordinary people like himself with the help of her family. And although she looks very difficult, it is not like that, and the tears just now can show that she is just a very simple little girl.

At the moment when she shed tears, it seemed to touch something deep in Zhou Shanjun's heart, and this feeling, even if it was as beautiful as a little girl, had never been given to herself. Is it the short time I spent hugging myself in the afternoon? Could it be the little fragrance that smells on the tip of the nose? Could it be that unusually soft feeling coming from the body? At this moment, he was extremely hopeful that the simple girl in front of him was not the girl that the boss had asked him to kidnap.

"Where are you from?" Zhou Shanjun didn't dare to call her name, if she wasn't by this name, then he wouldn't have this kind of trouble.

"Didn't you hear what I said?" Wang Yanru didn't answer his words, but asked back.

"I'm listening."

"Then you don't even want to call me by my name?" Wang Yanru's face was sunny and cloudy again, her eyes were also covered with mist, and her voice was a little choked.

Someone on the stairs walked down, walking in a hurry, I didn't know why I tripped up, and I was about to bump into Wang Yanru, who was standing facing downstairs.

Zhou Shanjun hugged her over and blocked her with his not strong body, even if that person rolled down, he would not be able to hurt Wang Yanru.

It is impossible for people to bump into this wayward girl, and there is a hunchbacked uncle standing behind her. His weak, seemingly rickety body stood on the stairs like a rock, and the man who rolled down hit him on the back, and was actually bounced off, fell off the guardrail, and smashed on a table below, and instantly smashed a table of wine and food, along with the table.

Wang Yanru's face was flushed with shame by this sudden hug, and when she saw someone falling down the stairs, she understood that he was worried that he would be hurt, so he hugged himself into his arms, and he had a good impression of this man in his heart. She was originally the age of a young girl, and she was in love for the first time, so she cared about the eyes of others, so she generously wrapped her arms around Zhou Shanjun's waist and buried her head in his chest.

Although Zhou Shanjun felt the same softness at noon again, and also smelled the exact same fragrance at noon, but his mind was completely shocked by the rock-like stability of the hunchbacked Uncle Wang just now, the scene just now, even without this hunchbacked Uncle Wang, he could protect this girl, but he would never be able to be like Uncle Wang, receiving such a big impact, not only did not move, but also knocked others away, how could he not surprise him. He didn't feel the change in the mind of the lovely person in his arms, he just felt a little more alert in his heart, and he vaguely felt that the girl in his arms should be the person he was looking for.

Tie? Now is the best opportunity, even if Uncle Wang has great skills, it is impossible to snatch her out of his hands. However, if he really kidnapped her like this, he would not only shatter the innocence of this girl who had just set foot in society, but also completely kill his own kind heart, in that case, even if the plan was successful and the poplar shop was rebuilt, he would be a walking dead in the future.

Not tied? That's not good, if you can't raise this money, not only yourself, but even Brother Dai is embarrassed to go back to pay the errand. And even if Wang Yanru is innocent, her father is really heinous.

What to do? What to do? Who's going to teach me? Zhou Shanjun was shouting in his heart, asking in his heart.

The girl in his arms didn't think like this, snuggling in this not generous chest, but he had a special sense of security, a special sense of comfort, which was a feeling that he had never felt before. Perhaps it was the taste of male hormones that deeply attracted Wang Yanru, and she was reluctant to leave this embrace.

Two men and women with their own hearts hugged each other on this not easy staircase, as if the world was still, until Dai Cunxiang shouted Xiao Zhou upstairs, and the two of them seemed to wake up like a dream and quickly separated.

Zhou Shanjun's face was flushed with shame, and after letting go of Wang Yanru, he walked upstairs with his legs, and no longer dared to look at the person who was still looking at him with affection.

Wang Yanru seemed to be fine, without the reserve and shyness that a girl should have, but said loudly to Zhou Shanjun: "I haven't eaten yet, can you accompany me?" ”

Zhou Shanjun paused when he heard this, he seemed to want to agree to this request, but he didn't know what was going on, he walked upstairs again.

Just when Wang Yanru was sad and disappointed, a voice came from upstairs that she wanted to hear: "Come up!" ”

…………

On the day of Dai Cunxiang's departure, Sun Yumin took Li Tiedan, Deng Dongping, Lin Yuanping and the little girl on the way to Wuhan.

At this moment, the Fifth and Ninth Theaters on the outskirts of Wuhan were in full swing, and after Sun Yumin led the 20th Division to defeat the Botian Detachment, Tang Enbo's 32nd Army was ordered to come to support the Third Army, which had only one 12th Army left. In late August, the 9th Division also arrived in Ruichang under the escort of the warships of the Third Fleet of Kagawa Koshiro, and after the 6th Brigade of the Forward Regiment landed, it was like a bamboo, and even descended to Liyu Mountain, Bijia Mountain and other important places, and captured Ruichang on August 24. After the occupation of Ruichang, Maruyama Masao's 6th Brigade was supposed to attack southwest and cut off the Guangdong-Hanzhou Railway, but when he saw that the 106th and 101st Divisions of Nanxun Road were beaten by Xue Yue's 1st Corps, he felt incredible, and killed him in a hurry. Maruyama led his troops into the Minshan Mountains and plunged directly behind the defenders on the front of Nanxun Road. Xue Yue also thought that the Sichuan army was lying about the military situation, so he ordered the 74th Army to send a brigade to drive away the enemy in Minshan and cover the safety of the flank of the defenders in front of Nanxun Road. Unexpectedly, a trip sent by Yu Jishi was almost wrapped in dumplings. Zhou Zhidao, commander of the 151st Brigade, immediately came back to his senses and reported while leading his troops to fight and withdraw. After receiving the report, Wang Yaowu was also afraid that something would happen to the 151st Brigade, so he hurriedly led other troops of the 51st Division to support, but who knew that the 51st Division was not an opponent when it went together. The 51st Division was beaten back and forth, and Yu Jishi finally figured out the enemy's strength and number at this time, and hurriedly led all the other troops of the 74th Army to rush to support. But it still didn't retreat. By September 3, the Maruyama detachment occupied Huimaling, and the 4th Army, 64th Army, and 18th Army of the frontal defenders of Nanxun Road were threatened and forced to retreat, and retreated to the next defensive line, Wushimen, to continue to hold on, and Maruyama's frenzied offensive was finally resisted.

After several failed assaults, the Maruyama Brigade finally retreated to the 9th Division of the Ruichang Rendezvous on its own, and after returning to the building, it continued to advance west along the Yangtze River with the Hatian Detachment. At the same time, the Japanese army attacked in the direction of Qixi with the 27th Division, and the 30th Army and the 18th Army of the Nationalist Army resisted one after another in the areas along the Ruichang-Wuning highway, forcing the enemy's progress to be extremely slow, and the battle on the south bank of the Yangtze River entered a stalemate stage.

The situation on the north bank of the Yangtze River is also not optimistic. At the beginning of June, the Japanese Sixth Division moved south from Hefei, broke through the defense of Xu Yuanquan's 26th Group Army, and after capturing Tongcheng on the 13th, it turned to the southwest to attack, and fell into Qianshan on the 17th.

On July 24, the 6th Division of the 11th Army of the Japanese invasion of China attacked from Qianshan in Anhui Province to Taihu Lake under the command of Inaba Shiro, and fought bloody battles all the way, successively breaking through the defense lines of the 31st, 68th and 84th armies, and successively captured Taihu Lake and Susong, and finally occupied Huangmei, the gateway of Guangji, after fierce street battles on August 4. After losing Huangmei, Bai Chongxi, the acting commander of the Fifth Theater, immediately commanded the troops to counterattack, but the Japanese army held on to the danger and released a large amount of poison gas, and the hard attack suffered heavy losses. Seeing that the strong attack could not be carried out, Bai Chongxi transferred troops to flank the rear of the Japanese army, and Li Pinxian's corps recovered Taihu Lake and Qianshan, cutting off the land supply line and land retreat of the Japanese 6th Division, making the situation of Inaba Shiro's 6th Division very difficult. Bai Chongxi seized the opportunity and commanded the 28th Army, the 84th Army and other troops facing each other head-on, to take advantage of the opportunity to storm and attack with the intention of completely annihilating the 6th Division, which had committed numerous crimes in the Nanjing Massacre. This time, although Bai Chongxi's layout was clever, he still underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army. The 6th Division held on to the danger and at the same time released a large amount of poison gas to survive the difficulties. Okamura Nintz also immediately sent the navy to open a supply channel at Koike on the other side of the Jiujiang River, and supplied the 6th Division with a large amount of ammunition and soldiers. After Inaba was replenished, he began to counterattack, and although Bai Chongxi went to the front line to supervise the battle, it was to no avail. Under the onslaught of the Japanese army, the 28th, 68th and 84th armies suffered heavy casualties, and the reserves were exhausted, but they were still unable to stop the Japanese offensive and were forced to retreat to Guangji. Seeing the retreat of the defenders, the Japanese army immediately followed and pursued to Guangji, where there was a fierce battle, and the national army finally retreated, and Guangji, the gateway to Tianjia Town, was lost. After this tragic battle, the 6th Division suffered heavy losses and was unable to continue the offensive, so it rested on the spot in Guangji for 7 days, and replenished 3,200 new soldiers and a large number of weapons and equipment.

On August 22, King Minoru of Higashikure Palace set out from Hefei with his troops, and by August 27, the 2nd Army he led attacked Lu'an and Huoshan, the gateways of Dabie Mountain, at the same time. After capturing Lu'an and Huoshan, the 2nd Army was divided into two routes. The 13th and 16th Divisions on the left crossed the northern foot of Dabie Mountain and approached Wuhan, and the right road went straight to Luoshan and Xinyang, and detoured to Wuhan.

Sun Yumin was almost completely unaware of these military trends, and he lived in Yangshupu for more than a month, almost isolated from the world, and if he didn't want to get weapons and ammunition, he would not have been able to go to the troubled waters of the national army again.

The route planned before departure is to arrive in Wuhan via Luotian and Tuanfeng County, although it is a land route, but the distance will be relatively closer. But when they actually set off, they immediately found that it was not as simple as they imagined.

On the highway, the devil's military vehicles, artillery trucks, supply vehicles, and continuous infantry and tank vehicles kept marching towards Wuhan.

Silly Bear was stunned, even when he was guarding Nanjing, he had never seen so many devils, but Lin Yuanping kept counting something with a branch, seeing his attentive appearance, the little girl didn't go to make noise with him, just pulled Sun Yumin's clothes, and shouted at him to look at the half-devil, and the battlefield was "crazy" twice, which made the little girl no longer feel at ease with him.

Sun Yumin understood at a glance that he was calculating the strength of the Japanese army, as an old baggage soldier, a half-devil could calculate how many troops were at the bottom from the military vehicle, and even could tell whether it was a permanent division or a newly formed division.

Sun Yumin didn't bother the half-devil who was concentrating on statistics and calculations, and he was also calculating in his heart at the moment.

If it is the same scene all the way, it will be very difficult for several of them to reach Wuhan, and now it is far from the battlefield, and then go forward to the place where the two sides are fighting, and it is not impossible to talk about the past! If you change the waterway, you have to go around in a big circle, and when you arrive in Wuhan, it is estimated that Wuhan has been occupied by devils.

In this situation, it is clear that Wuhan is no longer a very rational choice. At that time, it was said that the main reason for going to Wuhan to borrow weapons and equipment was that the road was not far, and if it was still a nationalized area, there was a great chance that it could be shipped back. But in the current situation, even if he got weapons and equipment from Wuhan, it would be impossible to transport them back. Since this is the case, there is no reason to go to Wuhan, although it is clear that Wuhan will be broken on October 27, and the purpose of going to Wuhan is not just to borrow a gun, but now it is completely meaningless.

"Boss, judging from the number of equipment and military vehicles, this batch of devils is not a permanent division, if the estimate is correct, it should be a reserve division that has recently been transported to China, as for the establishment, I can't figure it out." Lin Yuanping's sudden words interrupted Sun Yumin's hard thinking.

Just as he wanted to open his mouth to ask Lin Yuanping some questions about the permanent division and the reserve division, he spoke again: "Although a temporary division like this is a type B division, its combat effectiveness is not weak at all. ”

"Why do you say that?" Sun Yumin didn't understand the meaning of his words.

"Boss, let's take the 20th Division as an example, how are these so-called 'old and weak soldiers' who were replaced by the 58th Brigade from the 22nd Division this time?"

"It's tough, it's tough. If the weapons and equipment can be on par with the 59 brigade and the 60 brigade, I estimate that their combat effectiveness will be even more amazing. ”

"This situation is the same as the reserve division in front of us, in fact, many of them are retired veterans, in other words, most of the backbone soldiers of the permanent division are trained and cultivated by them. Do you think about it, will these people be weak in combat? ”

Sun Yumin nodded, he agreed with this. Just like China in later generations, a large number of retired veterans were prepared, and in wartime, they could casually pull up troops several times or even more than ten times that of active duty.
