Zhang Lingfu was having a good time fighting with the devil, and suddenly received an order from the military department, asking him to withdraw his troops! Soldiers, at all times, must carry out military orders! Not to mention that this is on the battlefield. Disobedience will be subject to military law at all times! Zhang Lingfu is a model soldier and an excellent officer, of course, he will not always do his own thing like Gao Quan. Zhang Lingfu, who didn't know what was going on, took his 58th Division to the mountain south of Huangtankou in a panic.

The devils of the 15th Division saw that the 58th Division had withdrawn, so if it was withdrawn, it would be withdrawn, anyway, the imperial army would not pursue. If you catch up and anger the 35th troops, or fall into some trap of others, wouldn't you be unlucky? As a result, the two troops, who were still fighting for their lives just now, broke up with each other amicably.

After breaking through the position of the defending 16th Division, the 32nd Division of the Japanese Army in the north of Quzhou City broke through to the area of Gongjiabu on the north bank of the Qujiang River, which was only two kilometers from the north gate of Quzhou City, and its main force continued to attack the position near Shiliang City. The 105th Division of the 49th Army of the defending army retreated to Xizhen.

At this point, all our armies in the north and south of Quzhou City have been defeated, and the Japanese army is approaching Quzhou from the north and south!

Mo Youshuo, commander of the 86th Army, the commander of the Quzhou City Guard, knew that the Japanese troops on the north and south sides of Quzhou City had broken through several layers of our army's defense line, especially Cao Zhenduo, the commander of the 16th Division, who led his troops into the city, and the Japanese army seemed to be attacking the city at any time. Mo and Shuo immediately found out that the situation was not good! At this time, the order of the Military Commission to avoid a decisive battle had not yet reached the military headquarters of the 86th Army. The officers and men of the 86th Army were still holding on to Quzhou City with the determination to fight to the death with the Japanese army.

Commander Mo, who was in a panic, ordered the troops directly under the military headquarters to assemble immediately, and the declared name of the troops was to go out of the city to collect the defeated troops of the 16th Division. In fact, Mo Youshuo and his chief of staff Hu Yan led several directly subordinate troops of the 86th Army out of the city and fled in the direction of Jiangshan Town! Chen Yiding, commander of the 67th Division, reported the military situation to the army commander, and the news he got turned out to be that Commander Mo had gone out of the city to collect the rout!

At the moment of the war, what does it mean that the main general is not in the Chinese army, and it is easy to get out of the city? Chen Yiding, a young officer in the third phase of Whampoa, doesn't need to guess to know a rough idea. After many years of fighting, General Chen has seen a lot of ugly faces of local military generals who are greedy for life and afraid of death and preserve their strength, while the Huangpu generals are basically synonymous with loyalty and bravery, elite and good at fighting, Mo and Shuo are in the second phase of Huangpu, one issue earlier than him, Chen Yiding really couldn't imagine that this senior and senior brother would also do the shameful deed of being greedy for life and afraid of death, and escaping from battle! Whether you think about it or not, after all, when the commander is needed the most, Mo Youshuo is not in his command position!

Chen Yiding did not hesitate, and immediately sent a telegram to report to the war zone: The 86th Army now has no commander! There is no such thing as a whistleblower or notching, such a big thing happened on the battlefield, Chen Yiding, who is the commander of the defending division, of course has to report to the top, he is a Chinese soldier, and what he is loyal to is the party and the country, even if it is specifically referring to someone, it is also a commission, not Mo and Shuo!

Gu Zhutong was shocked when he received Chen Yiding's report! This Mo and Shuo, what the hell are you doing? Even if the Military Commission ordered to avoid a decisive battle with the Japanese army in Quzhou City, it didn't say that Quzhou City was lost to the Japanese in vain? Even if you Mo and Shuo are well-informed and know the military commission's order to avoid a decisive battle in advance, even if you retreat, you should tell me, right? Even if you don't tell me, the commander, then you should always notify your two division commanders to withdraw together, right? It's good now, throw the two divisions to Quzhou, and he himself will run away with the troops directly under the army!

Quzhou City must not be given to devils in vain like this! Gu Zhutong dared to do this, as soon as this battle was over, he would wait to meet with Mo Youshuo at the military court in Chongqing! Chief Gu, who knew the temper of the commission, immediately gave Chen Yiding an order, first sealing the official, adding Chen Yiding as the deputy commander of the 86th Army, and then ordering Chen Yiding to coordinate and command the 67th Division and the 16th Division to continue to defend Quzhou City! If you want people to give him a dead force, it is very necessary to give a sweet date first!

After the appointment of the deputy commander was reported, the efficiency of the military commission was unprecedentedly high, and the appointment was approved almost immediately. In other words, after Chief Gu submitted his application for promotion, only ten minutes later, the reply from the Military Commission reached Gu Zhutong.

was promoted, made a wish, and promised to immediately send reinforcements and replenish weapons and baggage, Chen Yiding couldn't even agree if he wanted to. Besides, since he is a soldier, who is not motivated? Having the opportunity to be promoted to one level and enter the ranks of military-level cadres from then on, Chen Yiding certainly can't ask for it! Wealth and danger are sought! Isn't it just to defend Quzhou, even if there is no appointment of this deputy commander, he Chen Yiding will not guard Quzhou? The 86th Army is the defender of Quzhou City, where does he not defend Quzhou?

Chen Yiding agreed to stay in Quzhou City as the chief general of the garrison, but General Chen also asked Commander Gu for reinforcements. Before Mo and Shuo left, most of the troops directly under the 86th Army were taken away, and the strength of the defenders was reduced by one-third at once, making the already precarious city defense even more dangerous. Chen Yiding thought to himself that it would be difficult to hold Quzhou City with the existing garrison forces, and the war zone must send reinforcements to him!

Chen Yiding's request is very normal, since you want me to hold Quzhou, you have to give me people who can defend the city, there are not enough people, why do you let me stay here? Sent to death?

Chen Yiding's simple request made it difficult for Gu Zhutong. He had already received the order of the Military Commission to avoid a decisive battle in Quzhou a while earlier, which was really an embarrassing order! We must not let the troops fight a decisive battle with the Japanese army in the Quzhou area, nor can we abandon Quzhou too quickly, nor can we let the troops suffer too much losses. Neither can the 86th Army be withdrawn from Quzhou City now, nor can it be left there to defend it, in case this army is surrounded and annihilated by devils, Chief Gu will not be able to explain to the commission! What a dilemma!

The orders of the Military Commission must be carried out! Chief Gu still understood the intention of the commission, and after lying on the table and being stunned for more than ten minutes, he really thought of a way to get the best of both worlds.

"There it is! Send a telegram to all armies in the theater: Convey the order of the Central Military Commission that all armies should try their best to avoid excessive casualties in the battle with the Japanese army in Quzhou City, try their best to use mobile and flexible tactics to deal with the Japanese army, and take the strategic goal of striking at the Japanese invaders and preserving the vital strength of our army. ”

To avoid a decisive battle with the Japanese army in Quzhou, it was changed to a mobile and flexible attack on the Japanese invaders and to preserve the vitality of our army. Commander Gu not only took care of the face of the Military Commission, but also gave the generals on the battlefield considerable autonomy, if they want to fight you, just don't lose too much of the troops!

Wang Yaowu: Who is that? How thoroughly do people figure out the intentions of the commission? As soon as he saw this order, Commander Wang knew that he didn't want to fight the Japanese army in Quzhou City again! If you don't fight a decisive battle, you won't fight a decisive battle, Wang Yaowu will not question the order of the chairman, it is also a good way to fight the enemy in a mobile and flexible way, and the 74th Army has the means to fight devils in a mobile and flexible way!
