For the actions of Han Yunhua's subordinates, not only the headquarters of the Yue Army and the Eighth Route Army paid close attention, but even the [***] in Yan'an and the highest authorities in Yucheng also attached great importance to it.

On June 15, it was said that Yan'an called and implicitly suggested that the main force of Han Yunhua's troops should withdraw to the northwest region of Shanxi, and even if they wanted to fight, they should retain a little strength. But this proposal was clearly rejected by Han Yunhua, although Han Yunhua also knew that Yan'an's approach was very correct, and when the more than 90,000 troops of the army were terrifying, it was necessary to return it appropriately. After all, Han Yunhua still understands the truth that everyone loses their land.

But Han Yunhua couldn't do this, although Han Yunhua was an outstanding officer of the later republic, and his political quality was absolutely qualified. After years of cultivation by the party and the political axe, Han Yunhua's personal feelings for [***] are extremely deep. However, this war is not a struggle between one party and one faction, but a national war on whether the 5,000-year-old civilization of the Chinese nation can continue.

There is another very important reason why Han Yunhua insisted on resisting Shouichi in the temple, and this reason is only known to him, that is, the four-month-long battle of Wuhan between China and China. Historically, after the Kuomintang Chiang Kai-shek blew up the Yellow River embankment at Huayuankou, he forced the Yue army to suspend the plan to attack Wuhan along the Huai River and attack along both sides of the Yangtze River instead.

On 4 June, the Central China Dispatch Army adjusted the battle sequence, and its commander Shunroku Hata commanded the 2nd and 11th armies, with a total of about 140 brigades and 250,000 troops, responsible for the operation against Wuhan. Okamura Ninji commanded the 5 and a half divisions of the 11th Army to attack Wuhan along both sides of the Yangtze River, and King Minoru Higashikunomiya commanded 4 and a half divisions of the 2nd Army to assist Wuhan along the northern foot of Dabie Mountain. As well as more than 120 ships of the Navy and Kawakoshiro's 3rd Fleet, more than 500 planes of the Air Regiment of Tokugawa Yoshitoshi, the first pilot to fly into the sky, and five divisions directly under the Central China Dispatch Army were assigned to guard Shanghai, Nanjing, Hangzhou, and other areas, so as to consolidate the rear and ensure the operation.

The Battle of Wuhan was the largest battle in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, and more than 40,000 soldiers were killed and wounded, including nearly 700 officers at the rank of general and colonel. However, due to insufficient preparations, the three towns of Wuhan were finally captured by the Yue army. However, the Battle of Wuhan was still of great significance to the Chinese nation, and although the army finally occupied Wuhan after paying a heavy price, its strategic attempt to end the war by forcing the Kuomintang to submit was not achieved. According to the documents of the army found after the war, even the only remaining guards division in the territory of the city was on standby to reinforce the Wuhan battle at any time. The document of the War Department of the base camp also said: "The army devoted all its efforts to the Hankou operation, and there was no spare strength to deal with the situation."

During the entire Battle of Wuhan, although the Wuhan area could not be saved, the goal of destroying the living forces of the army set by Chairman Chiang Kai-shek was achieved. In the first battle of Wanjialing, the Kuomintang general Xue Yue commanded the 74th Army of the National Revolutionary Army and other main forces almost as the 106th Division of the Army. In addition to more than 1,000 people who fled, all the remaining soldiers were annihilated, and Wanjialing was full of corpses and discarded guns and ammunition.

The army's attempt to "launch the Battle of Hankow and make it the greatest opportunity for a decisive battle in the war" failed again, and from then on it had to fall into the quagmire of Chairman Chiang Kai-shek's "protracted war of resistance" in exchange for space and time, and could not extricate itself until it was defeated and surrendered.

However, during his studies at the National University of Defense Technology, Han Yunhua had conducted a three-month special study on the Battle of Wuhan, and he believed that the main reason why the Kuomintang was still unable to keep Wuhan after making huge sacrifices was that the preparations were too hasty. In addition, several important military towns downstream of Wuhan were lost so quickly and suddenly that Chiang Kai-shek's national political axe did not even have time to react, and the enemy had already reached the periphery of Wuhan. If the Kuomintang is given two or three months to prepare, it is believed that with the command skills of such powerful generals as Xue Yue and Wang Yaowu within the Kuomintang, the outcome of the Battle of Wuhan will be significantly changed. It is very likely that the iron hooves of the army will be contained on the outskirts of Wuhan, and the results achieved in the least possible way will be much greater than those up to now.

On June 12, 1938, the Botian detachment of the army landed in Anqing and soon occupied Anqing, and the Battle of Wuhan officially began. On September 6, Guangji fell. On the 29th, the army captured Tianjia Town, a fortress on the Yangtze River. By the end of October, all the three towns of Wuhan had fallen into the hands of the enemy, and the Battle of Wuhan was over. On the other hand, the troops of the 5th and 9th Theaters of the Nationalist Political Axe were centered in the Wuhan area of Hubei Province and resisted the attack of the Japanese army in a vast area such as central Anhui-western Anhui, northern Jiangxi-northwest Jiangxi, eastern Hubei, and southern Henan. It is now June 29, but the army has no intention of attacking Wuhan. And the historical Botian detachment of the strange soldier of the army is still nesting in the Wuhu area, and there is no surprise attack on Anqing at all. In other words, as long as Han Yunhua's troops attracted the main force of the North China Front Army to the Chahar area for one day, then the Battle of Wuhan would be fought one day later, and Chiang Kai-shek would have one more day of preparation time.

Although only Han Yunhua knows about this matter, whether it is from the perspective of the consolidation or development of the base area, or from the impact of the incident itself, Han Yunhua has a reason to fight, so Han Yunhua can explain the past whether it is within the party or in the army.

However, with Han Yunhua's surname of only taking advantage of advantages and not suffering losses, how can he not carry the black pot for Chiang Kai-shek in vain, although there is national righteousness to carry there, but outside of the national righteousness, Han Yunhua still wants to take something off Jiang Guangtou and Yan Laoxi, saying that in the future, he Chairman Jiang and Yan Xishan, Yan Chief Yan are his Han Yunhua's "chiefs", and he Han Yunhua is working hard here, and neither of them can hide in the rear to watch the excitement! What's more, the hundreds of thousands of victims who frantically poured into the Chahar region were all caused by the big moves made by Chairman Jiang, others don't know, can he, Han Yunhua, not know?

Therefore, when Han Yunhua received the first batch of victims, he sent a report to Yan Xishan's Second War Zone Governor's Department in clear code, asking Yan Xishan to give Han Yunhua's department material assistance to help the hundreds of thousands of victims stranded in the Chahar area. In the telegram to the highest authorities, Han Yunhua asked for money and goods, and also specifically mentioned the defense of the fortresses in Anqing and Tianjiazhen, hoping to attract the attention of the highest authorities. In the telegram to the highest authorities, Han Yunhua also vaguely mentioned some unknown "inside stories" about the Huayuankou incident, of course, only mentioning some scratches. At the same time, he also vaguely proposed that if the supreme authorities did not give him the materials that Han Yunhua wanted, then he could not guarantee that his troops would not escape from the battle like his troops under Chairman Chiang at a critical time.

Han Yunhua's telegrams were first sent to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, and then forwarded by the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army to Yan Xishan and Yucheng. It's not that Han Yunhua can't report directly from Chahar to the Second War Zone or Yucheng, but Han Yunhua doesn't want to leave a stain in the eyes of newcomers, he doesn't want to be "crazy" in the rectification movement in the near future, and he doesn't think he is a good athlete.

After Han Yunhua's telegram was sent to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, it caused an uproar at the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, and all the leaders, including Commander-in-Chief Zhu, saw that this was a letter of extortion written by Han Yunhua, and the object of his extortion was General Yan Xishan, the supreme commander of the Second Theater, and the other was Chiang Kai-shek, the nominal supreme leader of the Republic of China.

The headquarters of the Eighth Route Army held a three-hour discussion on Han Yunhua's two telegrams, and finally handed over the problem to Yan'an for resolution. I read and read the two telegrams from Han Yunhua forwarded by the Eighth Route Army Headquarters, and finally instructed the Eighth Route Army Headquarters to send them to Yan Xishan and Chairman Jiang, who was secretly having fun, according to Han Yunhua's wishes.

The mountain city of Yucheng was just as judged by [***], after reading the telegram presented by Dai Li's Military Command Bureau, Chiang Kai-shek was ecstatic! Hearing that the army had gathered nearly 100,000 people to prepare to attack Han Yunhua's army, Chiang Kai-shek's first reaction was not to believe it, and his second reaction was to gloat. After repeatedly confirming the exact surname of the information, Chiang Kai-shek immediately instructed Dai Li to pay close attention to the fighting in northern Cyprus and report to him as soon as there was any movement.

After Han Yunhua's telegram was sent to Yucheng, it caused a much bigger wave than the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, and after Dai Li read the telegram, he did not dare to slack off and immediately sent it to Chiang Kai-shek's residence.

Chiang Kai-shek met Dai Li in his study, and after reading Han Yunhua's telegram, Chiang Kai-shek was silent for a long time, only sitting on the side of Dai Li, who was nervous, but he did not dare to disturb Chiang Kai-shek, who was quiet in his own world.
