In the Wuhan battlefield, the Japanese army suffered heavy losses in breaking through the anti-eight-character array set up by Xue Yue, the 101st Division lost more than half, and the 106th Division also suffered heavy casualties.

But at the same time, Xue Yue's troops also suffered huge casualties, and although they were still fighting desperately and bloodily, they could no longer form an effective resistance to the Japanese army.

The rest of the armies also had brave divisions, but under the superior firepower of the Japanese army, they were defeated one after another, and the entire outer defense line of Wuhan began to collapse step by step, and the Japanese army took the opportunity to attack on a large scale, and the most fierce offensive was Okamura Ningji's department, Lianke Hankou and other military important places, faintly cutting the country's defense line in two sections, and the end could not echo!

The situation on the battlefield in Wuhan has since deteriorated extremely, and although fierce fighting is still going on, and there are still countless soldiers who have gone forward one after another, pouring all their blood on the positions they are holding, all the high-ranking generals have realized that the battle of Wuhan, which the chairman has carefully prepared for more than a year, will inevitably end in defeat.

Every day, the newspapers are carrying bad news about the front, almost every day, there are several positions lost, there is news that a certain general has sacrificed his life for the country, and the people of the whole country are plunged into deep pain and despair, and they are afraid, afraid that this nation, which has countless glories and has lasted for thousands of years, will really come to the moment of destruction.

They don't understand why they were able to completely annihilate a division of the Japanese army in Zaimu, but now they have gathered millions of troops, but in more than a month, they have been beaten by the Japanese army, and they have almost no power to fight back!

They finally began to realize that perhaps the Nationalist government, led by Chairman Chiang, was not the answer to the country's future.

"The country will not die, the country will not die!"

On the streets of many small cities, parades began to appear, shouting slogans and distributing leaflets, with bad news that the Japanese army was rampant on the battlefield in Wuhan and had few opponents, and there was even more good news that the troops who insisted on fighting the war behind the enemy line fought bravely against the Japanese invaders!

"Under the call of Yan'an, the Northeast Anti-Japanese Allied Army actively responded to launch an offensive to cooperate with the Wuhan battlefield, and in the past month, countless Japanese pillboxes have been uprooted, three county towns have been recovered, and more than 2,000 Japanese puppet troops have been annihilated!"

"In the northwest battlefield of Shanxi Province, the Eighth Route Army launched more than 150 large and small battles within a month, recovering several county towns including Hunyuan, Wei County, Pingshui County, etc., and annihilating thousands of Japanese puppet troops......

"Under the call of Yan'an, all units of the New Fourth Army repeatedly blocked the follow-up troops of the Japanese army to support the Wuhan battlefield, intercepted countless grains and grasses of the Japanese army, and countless guns and bullets, so that the Japanese army was exhausted and supported our country with practical actions. The determination of the officers and men to defend Wuhan ......"

"In Shanxi, Yan'an gathered dozens of regiments, besieged Taiyuan, launched dozens of attacks, and basically wiped out the peripheral troops of Taiyuan, and taking Taiyuan is just around the corner!"

"On the periphery of Taiyuan, under the order of Yan'an, the units of the Eighth Route Army carried out a fatal blow to the enemy who came to help, eliminating more than 10,000 Japanese puppet troops, and the people in the base areas of Shanxi also actively cooperated with the Eighth Route Army in the anti-Japanese war, helping to transport grain and grass, and taking care of the wounded......

If the unfavorable battle situation on the battlefield in Wuhan is like a haze covering the sky, then these news are a ray of sunshine from the thick haze to the earth, re-lighting the hope in the hearts of the people in despair.

Although after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Yan'an and the Nationalist Government reached a united front of the Anti-Japanese War, but in the hearts of most people, the troops in Yan'an were still at the level of harassing the Japanese army behind the enemy lines and making small fights.

But this battle completely subverted the people's impression of Yan'an.

They began to be surprised to find that the troops led by Yan'an could not only fight small battles, but also big battles, and even had the courage to attack a Japanese army like Taiyuan!

Moreover, they not only dare to fight, but also fight vigorously in the case of the defeat and retreat of the Wuhan battlefield, recovering a large number of lost territories, and it is even possible to recapture Taiyuan from the Japanese army!

For a time, the prestige of the Red Army in Yan'an was simply rising, and all kinds of policies about Yan'an, as well as news about harmonious coexistence with the people in the liberated areas, continued to reach the ears of many ordinary people. The phenomenon of the military pulling strong men and leviing too many taxes has formed a clear pair.

The balance of countless people's hearts began to tilt towards Yan'an little by little.

"These **** girls are hopeful!"

All this news was transmitted to Chairman Chiang's ears through the intelligence of the military command, which made Chairman Chiang, who was already upset and irritable because the defeat in Wuhan had been decided, like thunder, and if it were not for the fact that the Japanese army was now a great enemy, he really wanted to immediately give an order to launch another encirclement and suppression of the liberated areas in various localities.

At first, he recognized Yan'an's plan because he felt that it was beneficial to the Wuhan battlefield, but now it seems that he found that Yan'an's actions were simply playing against himself, if Yan'an really defeated Taiyuan and he lost Wuhan, it would be tantamount to being slapped in the face in public!

Cheng Qian looked at Chairman Jiang who was thunderous, silent, although he had all kinds of thoughts in his heart, but now, he couldn't say anything, even if he said it, it would be too late.

He also felt that Yan'an's plan was too vicious, and he stabbed the Nationalist Government in the door!

But all this is also based on the defeat of Wuhan, if the battle of Wuhan is won, then everything now will not happen, even if Yan'an really lays down Taiyuan, it is just the icing on the cake for Chairman Jiang.

But the defeat of Wuhan is a foregone conclusion!

"You say, if you get out of the way now, is it too late?"

After a long time, Chairman Jiang calmed down from his rage, looked at Cheng Qianchang and sighed, his face was guilty, at the beginning, Cheng Qian, Xue Yue, Xiao Shanling and others even turned into words, wanting him to entrust Lu Yuan with a heavy responsibility in the battle in Wuhan, but he didn't accept it.

"The principal knows the result, does he still need to ask his subordinates?"

Cheng Qian smiled bitterly, he knew that with the character of the chairman, he was almost admitting his mistake by asking so now, but what was the use?

It's already too late......

Now that all the defensive lines on the periphery have been breached, the morale of the army has been lost and the morale of the Japanese army is flourishing, not to mention the long road, even if the gods are coming, they are powerless to turn things around.
