He Jianye did not wait for the large troops of the Third Division to retreat together, but took the brothers of the original 16th Regiment to leave first, the artillery battalion originally had a lot of pack horses and war horses, plus the war horses captured this time, there was no shortage of horses for them to travel, and after the artillery equipment was given to the Third Division, it was even easier;

The mountain road after the autumn rain was very difficult to walk, and on the mountain path, they had to take care of the horses, and the brothers carried their equipment very slowly, and finally got on the road, and the brothers worked together to find a few carts from the village, and the brothers put the transfer on the carts, let the pack horses pull them, and the personnel moved forward lightly, but the refugees who dragged their families and mouths on the road gradually appeared, and they trudged the muddy road after the rain, and the long line could not forget the end at a glance.

After a long and bitter battle, the mood of the brothers was depressed, and now they are not even the identity of the Central Army, and they followed the regiment commander to the Nanchang Garrison Command to take office, and their temper became extremely bad, and they would scold if they disagreed, and even quarrel on the road.

"Let the brethren all endure each other, and engage in armed fighting and military law without authorization." He Jianye said to Zeng Da,

After several clashes on the mountain path, He Jianye ordered the troops to be restrained.

More than 20 kilometers of the avenue is full of mud, occasionally there will be devils' planes to make trouble, He Jianye with less than a thousand remnants, but with more than 400 horses to form a cart, the speed of action is not very slow, on September 13 He Jianye arrived in De'an, in De'an's Ninth Theater Front-line Command, He Jianye met the chief of staff of the Theater Command, after explaining some things, he got a slip of approval, from the Nanchang logistics warehouse to replenish the materials of the slip.

The brothers were exhausted one by one and sat on the cart to go to Nanchang, in the theater headquarters, nothing else was caught, but the food was replenished a lot, plus the carts given, less than a thousand brothers retreated on more than 300 carts, and the remaining brothers rode war horses, lost so many brothers in Jiujiang and Jinguanqiao, and the brothers who were full of worries were silent and sat together on the carts and slept dazedly.

In the evening, the convoy stopped at a town ready to camp, where the town was already packed with officers and soldiers in various uniforms and refugees, and thousands of feet trampled the muddy ground into a muddy pool.

"Commander, lodging has been found; There were no more empty houses in the town, and I found a temple outside the town, where the brethren should be able to rest for the night. As soon as he entered the town, Yang Xiaoshi rode over and reported;

"Well, let's squeeze it then!" He Jianye frowned and said,

The brothers arrived at the small temple outside the town, the brothers of the reconnaissance company had already cleaned it, there was a bonfire in the open space in front of the temple, the inside of the small temple had been emptied, and the dry straw was laid, and the brothers only had to lay out the military blanket for the night, and the early autumn night was not very cold, and it was good for the brothers who had just come down from the battlefield to have a place to sleep at ease.

"Yang Xiaoshi, how can there be nearly 1,000 brothers here?" He Jianye frowned and asked,

"There's already a bonfire in the open space outside, and when the bonfire dries the ground a little, then the planks on the cart are removed and laid on the ground, and the hay is spread, and that's it." Yang Xiaoshi said,

Just beside the clearing, the cauldrons on the makeshift stoves were steaming hot, the cooking class had already begun to cook, and the rest of the brothers were not idle, all of them were together to help prepare dinner.

"What are we going to eat tonight?"

The brothers' stomachs began to gurgle, and Zeng Da directly began to ask Lao Wang of the cooking class.

"Rice, I wanted to get some meat for the brothers to open meat in, but we didn't, and there was no meat sold in this town, and the supplies in the town were all eaten up by the soldiers." Lao Wang said with a wry smile,

He Jianye listened to Lao Wang's words on the side, feeling very sad! I didn't expect to return to the rear, and the supplies were still so scarce. There is no point from the He family in this town, and I don't know where to find anything to eat, as for the uncles at the military station? It is estimated that you can make some rice noodles, but don't think about meat;

Although with a lot of horses, but there are still nearly 60 kilometers away from Nanchang, He Jianye is reluctant to kill horses to satisfy the brothers' hunger, without horses, the remaining 60 kilometers may not be able to arrive in two days, there are horses dragging carts, the rest of the journey can reach Nanchang in just one morning, as long as you arrive in Nanchang, it is still very easy to eat some meat! At least that's what He Jianye thinks!

Although there was no meat, they were far away from the fighting, there was hot rice and hot soup, and there was no need to worry about the fire of the devils, and the brothers were still very happy to eat, and after eating, under the restraint of the officers, the brothers were not allowed to go to the town and wander around; There are all kinds of characters in the town now, and the brothers are holding back the fire again, for fear of causing unnecessary trouble, after dinner, He Jianye ordered everyone to prepare to rest, and the brothers who have cigarettes began to smoke a few mouthfuls together......

There are more than 20 wounded in the team, He Jianye gave up the small temple, let the wounded rest in it, and he sat on the wooden board with the brothers and carried it to chat, the night sky is full of stars, it seems that tomorrow is a good weather, which indicates that tomorrow's journey may not be very peaceful, the nearby sky is the devil's plane, the chat can make people relax the most, in the constant laughter, the brothers lay on the wooden board one by one and fell asleep, and the earth-shattering snoring sound was transmitted around the small temple......

It was good not to let the brothers wander around the town, and the next day before dawn the brethren were awakened by the smell of cooking in the cooking class, and one by one they were much better, and they got up to pack up their things, assemble the carts, feed the horses some hay and beans, and wait for the meal to begin;

What He Jianye didn't expect was that when He Jianye was still in Niutou Mountain, He Fuchu had already returned to Nanchang, He Yingqin had already told him the approximate ending, and then used the relationship of the Ministry of Military Affairs to get a few train tickets for him, and hurried all the way back to Nanchang;

"Lin Lao Er, you go get more meat and supplies to prepare; The second brother should be in Nanchang recently, call home, don't worry about the mother and younger siblings, if they want to come, send them over by car; In addition, from now on, send a person to the north gate every day, keep an eye on the point, and the second brother will send back the news when he enters the city, he has been fighting on the battlefield for so long, he has to prepare to pick up the wind for the second brother! Although He Fuchu had just arrived in Nanchang, he still endured his exhaustion and instructed Lin Laoer;

"Sir, don't worry! They are all prepared, and the subordinates have already been sent out; The second master will come back if he has news. Lin Lao Er reported,

"Well, you know the character of the second brother, and the brothers under him can't be neglected; There is no need to save at this juncture! He Fuchu was still not at ease, and repeatedly explained......
