As the saying goes, breaking a house is worth a lot, and the citizens who are ready to flee are quiet after midnight; The constant busyness did not allow them to complete their preparations, and the tired citizens hurriedly fell asleep......

"The price of food has dropped dramatically! Come and buy it! ”

"The cotton cloth was sold at a loss, the last two days; Don't miss your chance......"

"The price of groceries has been greatly reduced, and in the last two days, don't miss the ...... when you pass by"

On the morning of January 26, 1939, all the merchants in Nanchang seemed to have made an appointment, and began to cut prices frantically, just to turn the inventory goods into the ocean, so as to evacuate Nanchang early! There are many citizens walking in a hurry on the streets, but few are interested in purchasing; As for those who wish to exchange labor and goods for supplies, the merchants now only recognize the ocean......

The soldiers of the garrison command, like the police, patrol the streets early in the morning under the leadership of officers, and the more they evacuate, the more they must prevent refugees and citizens from looting supplies; If the Japanese had been in chaos before they had come to the city, the Nanchang government and the garrison headquarters would have become a laughing stock!

At the garrison headquarters, He Jianye is deploying personnel to patrol the whole city, and now the focus of all troops has shifted to maintaining order in the city!

"I'm back; What could I do to help! Legasaki entered the war room with red eyes,

"Ahh Are you alright? Confirmation? He Jianye looked at Leng Qi in surprise, it is difficult for any man who executes his beloved woman to pass the hurdle in his heart, everyone is in this special era!

"If you have something to do, it will be better to get busy! My lady said it! Lenzaki said,

"Oh! Well, you will be responsible for the security of the city; Before evacuating, the city must not be left in chaos; For looting of supplies, rape, robbery, and other incidents with a bad impact, the leading officer is authorized to execute the offender on the spot; Now is not the time for mercy! He Jianye said,

"Don't worry, I'm patrolling with the full name of the gendarmerie! Won't distract you from the security of the city! Leng Qi didn't have a smile on his face, except for the war room;

"Adjutant Li, while various government departments are still there, went to various government offices in Nanchang to collect information on all aspects of Nanchang, especially information on public facilities and key departments in Nanchang, especially the distribution map of sewers and pipelines; The more detailed, the better. ”

"Ordered Xie Yong of the logistics office to contact the government, and Li Zhenlin of the logistics office to contact the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Railway Bureau, there should be a lot of materials in the warehouse in Nanchang that they can't transport, especially all kinds of war preparation materials, munitions, explosives, cement, steel bars, gasoline, rails and sleepers, all received;"

"Ordered Yang Xiaoshi of the special agent battalion to inspect Chen Chun; The whole city surveys the buildings that can be used as fortifications, the construction conditions, how much explosives can withstand bombardment, and whether there is enough firing range; Gotta figure it out! ”

"Telecommunications Department, you sent a telegram to the war zone, requesting authorization for the Nanchang Garrison Command to rectify all buildings and city walls, and all buildings conducive to defense are in the renovation of our garrison headquarters, including monuments!"

"Okay, that's it for now, let's all move!" He Jianye waved his hand and asked the adjutant who recorded the order to quickly pass the order!

Under He Jianye's order, the preparations for Nanchang City suddenly accelerated and ran at high speed.

"Report, the government and the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Railway Bureau replied that they will continue to organize the transportation of materials, and when the Japanese soldiers are in the city, how many remaining materials will be handed over;" In the afternoon, Xie Yong returned to the war room and reported,

"Where's the munitions?" He Jianye asked,

"The soldiers of the munitions depot belong to the 9th Theater of Operations, and to receive the munitions, an order from the 9th Theater Command is required;" Xie Yong gave the reply he received to He Jianye,

"Didn't you get anything?" He Jianye asked,

"Yes, cement, rebar, rails and sleepers got a lot; They don't transport that stuff! Xie Yong said,

"Then gather it up and prepare for the fortifications!" He Jianye said,

Changsha, Ninth Theater Command; Wu Yizhi walked towards Xue Yue with two telegrams......

"Chief Xue, take a look!"

Xue Yuehu took the telegram suspiciously, sighed and asked, "What else is there in the arsenal in Nanchang?" ”

"All the munitions were replenished to the 32nd Army and the 19th Army on the front line of Xiushui, and now there is less than a ton of explosives in the warehouse; Not even a grenade is gone! Wu Yizhi said,

"Give it to He Jianye! As for those buildings, it's up to him! Xue Yue said,

"Sir Xue, the war zone doesn't even add a little bit of arms, how can He Jianye defend Nanchang? What do you think above? Wu Yizhi asked,

"Isn't it that the Japanese army has not yet come to the city? There will be arms in the back! Xue Yue seemed to be convincing himself;

From the 26th, the so-called elites and gentry from all walks of life in Nanchang began to worship their ancestors, while worshipping their ancestors while weeping bitterly, their families, lifelong careers, ancestral properties, and ancestral graves are all around the city, and their feelings for Nanchang are difficult to say clearly. But the sad thing is that this place will soon become a battlefield, and I have met a stunned guard commander;

In broad daylight, the whole Nanchang was filled with the smoke and smell of incense and candles, the whole Nanchang city was in mourning, and the ancestral halls of various families were in chaos. There are those who cry, those who make trouble, and those who point to the direction of the garrison headquarters and scold the soldiers for their incompetence in defending the territory, and there is everything.

"Commander, you have no mercy for killing with this hand; Now you have become the object of scolding by the entire Nanchang citizens, and they are all pointing at the sky and cursing you! Leng Qi returned to the war room with a wry smile and asked, the citizens would not lower their angry voices because the soldiers were just outside the door, but became more energetic, and the officers who didn't know how to deal with it had to report the situation to Leng Qi; Leng Qi only shook his head, telling the brothers to leave them alone and drive them away from their homes, which was indeed a humiliation for the soldiers; Let them scold!

"In the full-scale war between China and Japan, the purpose of the devil is different from that of the Eight-Nation Alliance, and it is different from the war between Japan and Russia in the three eastern provinces. What the Japanese want this time is the entire land of China, the civilization and Taoism that have destroyed the Chinese nation for thousands of years, and they are rushing to exterminate the Chinese nation; If we compromise, then our children and grandchildren will become Japanese slaves for generations to come. When the nation is dead, what is the use of leaving behind a thousand-year-old city! Since the Japanese army occupied the three eastern provinces, their habit has always been to slaughter there when they attack it, and they have slaughtered more than 300,000 people in Nanjing, what else is there to dare; If the people of Nanchang don't leave, once the Japanese army enters the city, how many of the three or four hundred thousand people here will survive? Ten thousand? I'm afraid it's 50,000 at most! In fact, I also know that the three or four hundred thousand people evacuated from Nanchang will inevitably be displaced if they leave their hometowns and go to the rear to resettle, and perhaps more than half of them will never be able to return here; As a soldier, I am actually deeply ashamed of my inability to protect the peace of the country and the people! But there is no way, our national strength is inferior to that of people, and our military strength is inferior to that of people! The destruction of the thousand-year-old city in the flames of war was also a last resort. As the commander of the garrison, I actually know that the task of defending Nanchang is to die for life, but I am afraid that once Nanchang is not protected, even a large area of land south of the Ganjiang River will not be able to be protected. Rather than this, it is better to fight to the death for the devil in Nanchang! Even if Nanchang is beaten into ruins, it will not hesitate! At least the devils have one less center that can be used as a base, and if the devils want to continue to occupy southern Jiangnan, they will have to pay a lot of manpower and material resources, whether it is to rebuild Nanchang or to increase logistics and transportation forces; In short, for the Anti-Japanese War, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages! As for the people's insults to me! That's how it should be, as a soldier, I have lost half of China since the Anti-Japanese War, which is a great sin! ”

He Jianye seemed to be comforting himself, and said to Leng Qi with blank eyes; As he spoke, the officers in the entire war room stopped what they were doing and bowed their heads in shame......
