The senior staff of the Japanese army continued to report that the battle situation ahead was unfavorable, and the commander of the 10th Army in Wuhan requested the implementation of the "Plan B".

The so-called "Plan B" was actually a retreat plan set by the Japanese base camp at the beginning of Jiang Haoran's attack, Jiang Haoran was menacing, and the Japanese high-level also knew that Jiang Haoran could not be ignored, and the goal he wanted to achieve had not yet failed the record, so the Japanese army set up a plan to retreat to the second best thing when it had no choice but to abandon Nanchang and retreat the defenders of Nanchang to the line of Xiushui, Wuning, and De'an, so as to ensure the safety of Wuhan as the first priority.

Although this plan was set, the Japanese top brass was extremely reluctant to implement this plan and took the initiative to withdraw from the occupied area, which was not only a damage to the face of the imperial army, but also very unfavorable to the security of Wuhan, because there was no solid defense on the line from De'an to Xiushui, and there was no favorable terrain, once Nanchang was lost, with Jiang Haoran's insatiable greed, it was bound to advance to Wuhan again, and the Eleventh Army was even more dangerous than at the beginning of the occupation of Wuhan.

Although the war strength of the 40th Army was incomparable to that of the Great Japanese Empire, it was more than enough for him to specifically target the 11th Army.

The Minister of the Navy, Dajiao Qinsheng, immediately stood up and expressed his opinion, he should think that since he is ready to implement tolerant tactics against Jiang Haoran, it is better to simply be generous, withdraw the 11th Army from Wuhan, shrink the forces and make every effort to arrange the plan to go south, the army is not Jiang Haoran's opponent, and the navy is beyond the reach of the whip, this time the main reason for the loss is that the distance is too far, the aircraft carrier cannot sail into the Yangtze River, and the carrier-based aircraft on the navy ships cannot conduct real-time monitoring of the skies over Wuhan, so that Jiang Haoran can succeed lightly, if he retreats to Nanjing, Shanghai, and Hangzhou, With the navy ready to help, Jiang Haoran can't parry the powerful fire support of naval guns and aircraft even if he has three heads and six arms. As soon as the plan to go south was successful, the imperial army entered from the rear of the southwest, and even the advantage of Jiang Haoran's 331 base was gone, and the occupation of China and the conquest of the Chongqing government were just around the corner.

The six generals of the six major hata Shun also euphemistically proposed that Tada Jun's plan is worth adopting, and now there is intelligence to prove that the anti-inflammatory miracle drug launched in the United States, penicillin, is Jiang Haoran's industry, and this point even the Chongqing government still does not know, the most infuriating thing is that Jiang Haoran sold penicillin at a sky-high price, and openly released his remarks, penicillin refused to sell to Japanese and dogs, and the military spy personnel took great pains to buy back a batch from an American at a high price, and the effect is indeed amazing, and the effect is many times stronger than sulfonamides.

At the same time, the military spy war elite also learned from the United States that Jiang Haoran bought the Houston shipyard from the US government, intending to produce aircraft carriers, although the military felt that the production of aircraft carriers by Chinese was a joke, but it can be seen that Jiang Haoran did have the ambition to win the Central Plains, and this qiē was carried out in secret from the Chongqing government. Therefore, it is the wisest for the imperial army to withdraw from the current campaign, even if Wuhan is handed over to the government of China, with the narrowness of the government of China, it will definitely think that the imperial army is no longer able to resist the army of China, and then it is time for the government to clean up Jiang Haoran, plus there are chrysanthemums to add fuel to the fire, and it is far more efficient to eliminate Jiang Haoran on the battlefield without gunsmoke.

Despite the efforts of Shunroku Hata and Okari Seio, this plan did not work out, and the emperor and Hideki Tojo paid more attention to the face of the imperial army, however, the implementation of "Plan B" was approved by the emperor, and the navy was forced to support Jiujiang again, increase air supervision, and be sure to recapture Jiujiang and eliminate Jiang Haoran.

At the same time, the action of disintegrating and dividing Jiang Haoran with a public opinion offensive was also carried out secretly, and Emperor Hirohito personally formulated the plan code-Sakura Project.

In the early morning, Jiujiang, tunnel.

Although the Japanese army could not pose a threat to Jiujiang for the time being, Jiang Haoran did not stop all night, and summoned all the basic backbones of the New Fourth Army for emergency training in street fighting. Although the grassroots cadres of the New Fourth Army have a slightly lower level of education than the grassroots cadres of the National Army, they are full of vigor in learning and have taken shameless questioning to the extreme.

The two women, who were tense when they met last night, actually got along peacefully, shuttled around Jiang Haoran like butterflies, and became his assistants, and the scene was so harmonious.

When the sky was slightly bright, the first detachment of the New Fourth Army sent people to report that the remnants of the Japanese army on the riverside had been cleared, there were no enemy ships on the river, and those who had survived the bombing had fled.

After last night's bombing, the first detachment of the New Fourth Army took up the task of cleaning up the remnants of the enemy, and when the ships were bombed, the Japanese troops who jumped into the water to escape were not old and young, and of course they could not be allowed to escape and harm the rear.

The progress of the Snow Wolf Special Combat Team and the Poyang Lake Independent Brigade of the 65th Wing of the Japanese Army was also very smooth, and it was difficult to form an effective blockade on the riverbed, and with the powerful firepower of the Snow Wolf Special Combat Team as the pioneer, the Japanese army was defeated and retreated, and it had been chased out by the troops for dozens of miles, annihilating more than 1,000 Japanese puppet troops.

It seemed that Jiujiang had gained temporary security and bought time to get through De'an, but then an incident happened that made Jiang Haoran's preparations go to waste, and the troops had to consider the problem of breaking through.

Gao An, the former enemy headquarters of the 40th Army.

Zhang Dabiao also didn't rest all night last night, and he was studying today's siege plan with his staff team. Although yesterday's attack was fierce, it had little effect, not to mention the height and depth of the Nanchang city, the Japanese artillery fire was not bad, and there were still aircraft support from time to time, so the attack was at a stalemate for a time. But it is not completely without gains, at least the city wall has been blown up a lot of gaps, if it were not for the armored brigade being transferred to De'an, under the cover of tanks, it would be relatively simple to break into the city.

But isn't it without tanks? Judging from yesterday's attack, the main defensive force of the Japanese army is still in the west of the city, so that the Japanese army can be caught off guard, and today's 10 regiments of the Hurricane Column will also arrive in the east of Nanchang to tear open the enemy's defense line with strong forces, as long as they can tear a hole in Nanchang and enter Nanchang to stir up with the Japanese army, the enemy's air superiority will be lost, and the city will be broken just around the corner.

Zhang Dabiao was confidently ordering his staff officers to convey the battle plan to the divisions, when suddenly, a few crisp gunshots broke the silence of the early morning.
