"Report, Jiujiang Defense Line urgently calls for help telegram."

After receiving a distress telegram, the devil who was in charge of the night did not dare to delay, he quickly took the telegram to Okamura Ningji's bedroom, woke up Okamura Ningji, who had been asleep, and handed him the telegram.

"Nani?"

Okamura Ningji, who was about to scold, heard a telegram asking for help from the Jiujiang Defense Line, and his first feeling was that the flying fox from Jiangxi had come out again to block his Wuhan battle.

He hurried out of bed without even putting on his clothes, took the telegram from the staff officer's hand, and immediately read it earnestly.

"Yaga, damn flying fox, you really think I can't deal with you."

Seeing that the content of the telegram was indeed the same as he thought, the Flying Fox began to attack his line to defend Jiujiang, and had successfully landed on the island between Shangjiujiang and Mukou.

"Your Excellency Commander, what are we going to do next, it looks like we can't hold it out over there." The staff officer asked.

"Baga, order the troops of Shangrao, Fuzhou, and Ji'an to immediately attack these places, the more fierce the better. Ordered the air force in the direction of Fujian to entangle the air force of the flying fox for me, and I can't let them easily participate in the war. ”

Gangcun immediately issued a combat order, but this order had nothing to do with the Jiujiang defense line, so the staff officers standing on the side rushed to be very puzzled.

"Baga, what are you doing here, don't you go and give the order quickly."

Seeing that the staff officer looked at him stunned, Okamura Ninji scolded angrily and urged the staff officer to hurry up and give the order.

"Come back, you're ...... like this"

"Hai, Commander is brilliant."

Just as the staff officer walked to the door, Okamura Ninji stopped him, and then whispered something to him. After listening to Okamura Ninji's words, the staff officer was so happy that he praised him for his strength.

Boom Boom Boom ......

The troops in these three directions reacted quickly after receiving the telegram from Okamura Ninji, and the artillery was the first to fire at the Flying Fox defenders in three directions.

"Report, the provisional fourth, fifth, and sixth divisions in the Shangrao, Fuzhou, and Ji'an directions report that the devils in these three directions suddenly launched a fierce attack on our army's position." The operator said.

"What? What does this mean, devil. ”

Chen Jinghui, who was still discussing with Chief of Staff Xu how to fight against the devil next, was very surprised when he heard the news. His first feeling was that he suspected that he had guessed wrong before, and that the devil was not defending himself in these three directions.

As a result, he looked at the telegram carefully, and what was said on it was basically the same as what the operator said, except that the devil did not send infantry to participate in the battle for the time being, but only carried out fierce artillery bombardment on the defenders in these three directions.

"Commander, what are you doing here? As soon as we stormed the islands on the river, he started stabbing us in the back of the ass. ”

Chief of Staff Xu couldn't understand the devil's intentions, and his mind was full of doubts.

"Go and ask Huang Erwa, if there is any movement of the devils in Nanjing and Shanghai."

Chen Jinghui couldn't see the devil's intentions clearly for a while, what he urgently needed now was to be able to provide him with accurate judgment information.

"Report, Captain Huang called back and said: There is no sign of movement of the devils in these two places, but there are signs of movement of the devil air force in Fujian." A few minutes later, the operator took Huang Erwa's call back and said.

"What? There are signs of mobilization of the air force in Fujian, so is it true that the devil really wants to launch the Battle of Nanchang against us again at the same time as the Battle of Wuhan??? ”

Chen Jinghui said in surprise, his brain was running rapidly, and he wanted to figure out what the devil's intentions were as soon as possible.

"Commander, will the devil have any conspiracy?" Chief of Staff Xu reminded.

"The devil must be playing some tricks, but we can't figure it out yet." Chen Jinghui said.

"So what do we do now? Will the landing operation continue? Chief of Staff Xu asked.

"The combat opportunity for landing in Anhui remains unchanged, and it will continue to advance according to the original. It's just that the chance of landing on the other side tonight is lagging behind, and the plan will be made after the form is clear. ”

The combat opportunity to land in Anhui is a big plan, and it cannot be stranded just because of the sudden action of the devils. But for the sake of safety, Chen Jinghui could only postpone the opportunity for the time being.

"Okay, then how should we deal with Nanchang over there."

Chief of Staff Xu naturally knew that the operational plan for landing in Anhui was very important, but at present, the troops defending Nanchang were all new troops, and they did not have rich combat experience, and Chief of Staff Xu was worried that they would not be able to withstand such a fierce attack by devils.

"In this way, Lao Xu, you immediately get up and rush to Nanchang to sit in the town, and I will continue to stay here to command. If there is any new situation, please contact us in time. ”

Chen Jinghui thought about it again and again, but decided to let Chief of Staff Xu go to Nanchang. After all, Jiangxi is a nest that you started from, and you can't take risks.

Chief of Staff Xu didn't dare to delay longer, so he got up and left the Jiujiang headquarters directly and began to rush to Nanchang.

"Someone, order Huang Erwa to pay attention to the movements of Fujian and Zhejiang devils at all times, and ask him to report every two hours."

Now that the war has started, Chen Jinghui does not dare to slack off easily. He gave Huang Erwa another order, asking him to pay close attention to the devil's movements, so that he could judge the devil's intentions as soon as possible and make countermeasures.

"Commander, do the troops along the Jiujiang River continue to board the ship?"

Zhang Erzhu, the commander of the first division, came to Chen Jinghui's side and reminded. He felt that since the opportunity to land in Anhui had been postponed, there was no point in these troops staying on the ship.

"yes, to the point of forgetting about them. The troops of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and Separate Divisions were ordered to immediately stop boarding and continue to stand by in place. ”

After being reminded by the commander of the first division, Chen Jinghui patted his head, only then did he notice his negligence, and immediately issued an order to these divisions to stop boarding the ship and let them continue to stand by.

"Zhang Erzhu, come here, you ...... like this"

Although the operational plan for landing in Anhui is lagging behind, it does not mean that it is invalid. Chen Jinghui called the commander of the first division to him and gave him a secret order. The reason why he did this was to keep it a secret and just in case.

"Division commander, the devil's attack is too fierce, we can't carry it like this, I suggest avoiding its edge first and retreating."

On the front line in the Shangrao direction, a regiment commander gave his advice to their division commander.

"Damn, isn't the devil crazy? Some time ago, the kennel refused to come out of the position, and we didn't let go of a single fart in the attack, why is it suddenly crazy now, and the attack is so fierce. Someone, send a report to the military department, the request is just. The commander of the fourth division said.

"Report, military department telegram."

"Read."

"With the approval of the army commander, the chief of staff ordered all the front lines to avoid the artillery bombardment of the devils, and all retreated to defense beyond the range of the devils' artillery fire. At the same time, let everyone rest assured that the chief of staff will personally come to Nanchang to sit in town, so that all units will not panic and stabilize their positions. The telegraph operator finished reading the telegram.

"Okay, got it, order all the troops on the front line to withdraw from their positions and enter the second line of defense."

With this order, the division commanders of several provisional divisions immediately moved, and they began to order their front-line troops to begin to retreat, avoiding the artillery attack of the devils first.

Because it was night, the devils attacked suddenly, and they only saw artillery bombardment, but did not see the devils' infantry. Chief of Staff Xu was afraid of what tricks the devils were playing, so he proposed to Chen Jinghui to retreat. And Chen Jinghui also couldn't figure out the devil's intentions for a while, and he also wanted to make some reactions to lure the devils, see the devil's reaction, and add a little basis to his judgment.

"Report, the Chinese troops have begun to retreat."

"Nani, this is retreating?"

"Hay, it's a retreat."

The order was given to stop the shelling, and the infantry quickly pressed up. Remember, just press up, but don't attack, we'll wait until tomorrow. ”

The devils reacted immediately when they received the news that the Flying Fox's defensive forces were retreating, but they just didn't need infantry to attack.

"Report, the devils have moved, they want our army's second line of defense to start advancing, but according to forward observations, they don't seem to have any signs of a major attack tonight."

"Huh? What does that mean. ”

The news of the devil's advance soon reached Chen Jinghui, but what made him very strange was that the devil didn't take advantage of the situation to attack.

"Tell Chief of Staff Xu to let all units continue to closely observe the movements of the pair, and don't act rashly yet."

There is still too little information, and Chen Jinghui still can't judge the devil's intentions, so he can only adopt a strategy of waiting and seeing.

The night passed quickly, and the sun began to rise slowly. The devils were quiet that night, and they didn't make any big moves.

"Report, Captain Huang reported that 15 planes took off from the devil's Fujian Airport, and they were going in the direction of Nanchang."

Early in the morning, Chen Jinghui had just gotten up from the bed, and before his clothes were dressed, the radio operator sent him a shocking news.

"Quick, go to command."

He hurriedly got out of bed, grabbed his clothes and began to run to the headquarters.

As soon as he entered the headquarters, he immediately came to the front of the map and began to draw on the map, while carefully checking the defensive deployment of his Nanchang defense line.

"Report, Chief of Staff Xu reported that the Devil Air Force began to bomb the forward positions of our army."

"What? Isn't the devil crazy? ”

Hearing that the devil's air force was attacking his troops, Chen Jinghui's first feeling was that the devil had taken the wrong medicine. Knowing that he had an air force, and it was very powerful, he even dared to send the air force to attack.

"Order the Air Force to take off immediately and kill all these flies, and Lao Tzu will let them have no return."

Now I don't know the specific intentions of the devil, Chen Jinghui can only fight first, trying to find a breakthrough from the process of fighting.
