After the order to retreat. /。 Qb(5).c0m\\Wuhan government agencies and military institutions at all levels began to revitalize, and the tamed means of transportation were requisitioned, ships, automobiles, and carriages. It was all full, and those who did not want to leave poured into the French Concession in Hankow, which was overcrowded for a while, from the basement to the attic.

Among all the retreat organs, the task of the logistics department is the heaviest, Hong Junqi first organized the transportation force to withdraw the materials from the Wuchang warehouse with the most materials to Yueyang, Changsha, and then crossed the river to Hankou to send five or six warehouse materials from Jiangbei to Zaoyang and Yichang in Suixian, but the biggest problem he encountered at this time was the means of transportation, there were only a dozen trucks left in the entire Jiangbei, Hong Junqi had no way, after filling the trucks in his hands, he ordered the warehouse to be opened and let the troops from the west take it away, But there were not many troops who dared to withdraw into Hankow. When the Japanese army approached Hankou, there were still two warehouses with supplies that had to be blown up.

The jeep was speeding out of the city, and many people on both sides of the road gradually appeared, dragging their families with them, and it was difficult to be on the road, the old people sat on the side of the road to rest, and the children were crying in the cold wind, which was heartbreaking in the cold wind.

Hong Junqi tightened the military coat on his body, his face was expressionless, the atmosphere in the car was very low, and everyone stared at the front, not daring to look at the refugees on both sides.

After more than 20 miles out of the city, the road gradually became less smooth, and the carriages and carts blocked the road, and it was not far from the city at the moment, and the Japanese would soon be able to catch up with them with their maneuverability, and the adjutant anxiously leaned out half of his body and shouted at the carriage in front: "Let go!" Let's get it! ”

The people in front turned around, saw two military vehicles and hurriedly leaned on both sides, the jeep slowly drove into the flow of people, and after walking a short distance, the road was completely blocked, a truck stopped in the middle of the road, the car was loaded with a long load, and a large group of soldiers were struggling to push the cart under the command of a second lieutenant.

Behind the truck were several horse-drawn carriages, and at the back was a Chevrolet sedan, and two high-nosed foreigners were standing anxiously in front of the car and looking ahead. Hearing the sound of brakes behind them, the two looked back, and when they saw the jeep, they were overjoyed, and they knew with their knowledge that only the colonel and above in the squadron were equipped with such a jeep, and the officer who came must be taller than the colonel, and he understood from the heavy machine gun escort behind him.

The adjutant quickly inquired about the situation ahead, Hong Junqi turned around and got out of the car, walked quickly to the truck, and the second lieutenant saw his rank of lieutenant general and stood upright.

"Report, the car is stuck in the guard. We're pushing carts. The second lieutenant reported to Hong Junqi, who silently lowered his head to look. Then he asked, "What's in the car?" If you really can't do it, you will get in the way, understand! ”

"The ammunition was received from the warehouse of the logistics department, and the boss ordered that this truck of ammunition should be sent to Yichang no matter what, otherwise military law will be involved." The second lieutenant looked directly at Hong Junqi unequivocally.

"Which troop are you?" Hong Junqi frowned and listened to the sound of the concubine from the engine.

"The 103rd Division of the Eighty-sixth Army." The second lieutenant replied.

Hong Junqi didn't pay attention to it anymore, he waved his hand and called his driver: "Show them, why do I think there is a problem, you show them." ”

"Yes." Sihe ran to the cab and shouted at the driver, "You come down, I'll try."

Only then did Hong Junqi turn to face the second lieutenant: "I am Lieutenant General Hong Junqi, commander of the Logistics Command, I will give you another twenty minutes, if the car can't go yet, you must push him to the side of the road, and I will give you a certificate to prove that you gave up the truck as a last resort." ”

"Yes." The second lieutenant immediately replied, after Hong Junqi turned around and left, he looked at the supplies on the car with some heartache, such a full load of ammunition is rare in the division, they are local troops in Guizhou, grandma is not in pain, uncle is not loved, supplies have never been enough, retreating from Tianjia Town, they have not been replenished, whether it is personnel or weapons and ammunition. After the battle of Tianjiazhen, the average soldier of the whole division only had five bullets left, and all the shells were gone, and they finally got the replenishment in Hankou, and the materials in the warehouse were taken casually. That's why I have this car of ammunition, and now it's going to be destroyed, how can it not be heart-wrenching.

Hong Junqi turned around and walked towards the jeep, he couldn't bear to look at the refugees' somewhat sluggish expressions, "General, have the Japanese entered the city?" ”

A sentence interrupted Hong Junqi's train of thought, Hong Junqi looked up and saw that it was a foreigner, he looked at him with some doubts, and the foreigner hurriedly introduced his identity.

"I'm Charles of Times reporters. Inside the car was my colleague, Mr. Webb, a reporter for the Washington Observer, and Mr. Logan, who was also a reporter for the Tymes. Charles smiled and looked at the general with the rank of lieutenant general in front of him, but he was wondering about his identity.

"Oh" Hong Junqi didn't intend to pay attention to him, but after hearing Weber's name, he changed his mind: "Mr. Reporter, why are you here?" ”

"We plan to go to Yichang, and then to Chongqing, the ticket to Chongqing is too tight, and by the time we go, there will be no more, general, have the Japanese entered the city?" Charles explained tactfully, still insisting on his own problem.

Hong Junqi looked inside a few cars. Ugly Webb was in the back seat and was shouting with a noon typewriter: "The sound of the scare typewriter tapping is still faintly heard on the noisy highway."

"Not yet, but I may have entered the city by now, and the latest information when I left was that the Japanese front was only ten kilometers away from the city

Charles obviously felt that the other party's attention was more focused on Weber, he didn't care about this, Weber in the report on China's naked support, and then he won a high degree of favor in the Chinese, and his fame in China grew, due to the Lhasa incident, the British blocked the Yunnan-Burma road, the relationship between the two countries deteriorated sharply, and the Chinese government paid more attention to the relationship with the United States, Soong Meiling therefore accepted Weber's exclusive interview, which led to Weber's fame even higher, almost becoming the first European and American journalist in China.

"This bad weather Charles did not rush to open the topic, but looked up at the sky. The sky is getting overcast and the sky is getting darker, indicating a heavy rain or snow to come.

Hong Junqi looked up and felt something. He sighed heavily, heavy rain or snow would make it more difficult for refugees to flee, the roads would become more muddy, and Yichang would be stunned and more distant.

"General, haven't asked your surname yet?". Logan walked over from the other side of the car.

Hong Junqi glanced at him vigilantly, and then hesitated before saying, "Hong Junqi, commander of the logistics command."

Charles and Rogan exchanged glances, and they read from each other's eyes at the same time the excitement of catching a big fish, after the bad relations between China and Bish, British journalists received special treatment in China, Chinese officials collectively blocked British journalists, only the Ministry of Foreign Affairs would let them participate in the regular press conference, others refused to accept their interviews, and their interview cards were also greatly restricted, so it was rare to interview such a lieutenant general who held real power.

"Why didn't you go to the British Consulate?" Hong Junqi asked suspiciously.

We don't want to go there, we think the British consulate will move to Chongqing in the near future, Logan replied slowly, but his eyes were looking at the refugees passing by.

"Why?" This aroused Hong Junqi's curiosity.

"Nothing, we are not fools of the Foreign Ministry. Sooner or later, China and Britain will come together to fight the Japanese. Charles said lightly.

Hong Junqi was very surprised, there was such an acquaintance among the British, he looked at Charles sharply, wanting to see if he was telling the truth.

I hope London will think the same way, and open the Yunnan-Burma Highway as soon as possible.

"After the loss of Guangzhou, the Yunnan-Burma Highway has become the only way for your country to communicate with the outside world, and it is necessary to open the Yunnan-Burma Highway to resist the Japanese." Logan nodded in agreement.

Guangzhou was lost five days ago, the loss of Guangzhou to the Nationalist Government was a deep surprise, the Japanese army invested huge forces to besiege Wuhan, the Nationalist Government did not realize that the Japanese army still had the strength to carry out the battle in Guangzhou, when Henan was tight, Chiang Kai-shek repeatedly transferred troops from Guangdong, to Tianjiazhen fierce battle. Chiang Kai-shek also asked Yu Hanmou to send an army north. A few days before the Japanese landing, Chiang Kai-shek also transferred one. division, by the time the Japanese army landed, there were only two divisions and more than 20,000 people left in the whole territory of Guangdong.

The facts of Guangdong were known to the Japanese army, who transferred 50,000 men from Taiwan, Korea and Jiangnan. The 21st Army, commanded by General Guzhuang Ganlang, landed in Daya Bay, and then went down to Tamsui, Huizhou, Zengcheng, and Boluo, and it took only ten days to hit the city of Guangzhou.

"So your government wants to force us to make concessions on the Burma Highway, or use the Burma Highway to make deals with the Japanese, is that so?" Hong Junqi's question is very acute.

"I don't know what London's idea is. But this decision is undoubtedly very wrong. Charles solemnly said that when he first heard about the Lhasa incident, he was also shocked, thinking that it was a conspiracy against the British, but as the situation developed, he gradually accepted Weber's view. Think of this as an explosion of Chinese nationalist sentiment.

As for the news in the diplomatic circles that China would negotiate peace with Japan after the fall of Wuhan, both he and Rogan believed that this would not happen, and that the main war faction in the Chinese government was stronger than they thought, and even Chiang Kai-shek could not confront them.

I hope that Mr. Chamberlain can have the same understanding as you, and Hong Junqi said lightly: "Don't think that blocking the Yunnan-Burma Road is a concession to us. We had long expected this to happen in London. ”

The sound of typing in the car suddenly stopped, and Hong Junqi saw through the car window that Webb was taking out a piece of paper and reading it carefully, he turned to Logan and said, "Only the three of you are walking this road?" I've heard that there are quite a few foreign journalists in Wuhan

"We were the last and they were at the front. We were stopped by the damn truck, and Charles reluctantly motioned to the cobalt-throwing truck in front of him.

Asking for monthly ticket support and asking for monthly ticket support"
