Chapter 203: Bloody Battle under the City of Nanjing

The situation of the 10th Group is now very bad, Jiangxi and Anhui provinces are like a long and narrow snake, and this snake is still surrounded by the enemy, and taking Anhui not only does not bring benefits to the 10th Group Army, but strategically puts the 10th Group Army at a disadvantage.

But there is one thing that still makes Liu Yuan more reassured, that is, Hunan has the strength of Mao to contain Hunan Provincial Chairman He Jian, and Wang Jingwei in Hubei is not the material to lead troops at all, and he does not have the ability to break through Jiujiang in any case, and the biggest threat to the message is Henan, Guangdong, Fujian, and Zhejiang, which can be said to have taken the old path of the Gui Army, which is not a good sign, if Chiang Kai-shek wants to kill the Tenth Army at all costs, it is really not a difficult thing.

What is even worse is that the Tenth Army is a tired division, and its combat effectiveness is obviously not as strong as it was when it went out, and it is really difficult to attack Nanjing.

However, there is one thing, that is, there is no danger to defend in Zhejiang and Jiangsu, which is a typical Great Plains, and from beginning to end, there was no victory in the defense of Nanjing in history, from Zhu Yunwen of the Ming Dynasty, Hong Xiuquan of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and even the Battle of Nanjing soon after, the defending side did not have a victory.

Therefore, it is not wrong to launch an attack on Nanjing from Anhui, even Zeng Guofan used Anhui as the cornerstone to destroy the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, Mao also proposed in the fifth anti-encirclement and suppression, jumping out of the encirclement and establishing a base in the area near Nanjing, it can be seen that Liu Yuan's strategy is not very wrong, the only regret is that because of the victory of the war, the long snake formation appeared, when he fought with Nanjing, Zhejiang and Fujian were fully capable and timely to send troops to cut off their long snake, Then it was the end of the Tenth Army.

The huge command room, dozens of busy staff officers are sorting out the data, Zuo Quan has no image at all as a conference table, Nie Rongzhen looked at the map with a gloomy face, the chief of staff is not there, when the commander-in-chief is stupid, he must find a way back for the team, this word long snake array is simply to seek death and know the way, the tenth group can go to this day, Chiang Kai-shek has more or less put a lot of water, and now it is time to fight with Chiang Kai-shek, to be honest, Nie Rongzhen is under pressure to death.

Just yesterday, Zuo Quan sent a telegram, they actually started to fight with He Yingqin, the ghost knows when Xu Xiangqian appeared, and he actually joined forces with Zuo Quan near Huanggang City to kill He Yingqin, this is the first time that Huangpu students challenged He Yingqin, the instructor, and He Yingqin was really unlucky.

In the rainy night, the artillery was slow and was destroyed by the elite team sent by Xu Xiangqian, and then organized the troops to constantly harass and attack, causing huge losses to He Yingqin.

And Li Jishen was not to be outdone, and launched a surprise attack on Zuo Quan on the flank, which also caused huge losses to Zuo Quan, but fortunately, Xu Xiangqian's support kept Zuo Quan's troops, which also made Xu Xiangqian lose the opportunity to continue to bite a piece of meat on He Yingqin.

The battle of Huanggangshan can be regarded as a mutual victory or defeat, but it can only temporarily drag He Yingqin and Li Jishen's troops, but Zuo Quan and Xu Xiangqian jointly called that the transfer is a matter of time, and the Huangpu lineage is not tomorrow's yellow flower, and they can hold out for half a month at most.

And the news from He Long, Wang Yaowu, Hu Lian, and Song Xilian is not very good, it can be said that with the Tenth Army taking Anhui, the Tenth Army has also fallen into strategic passivity.

Just when Nie Rongzhen was extremely entangled, there was a footstep sound of "da-da" military boots in contact with marble outside the door, and the footsteps of the protagonist of the footsteps were very powerful and with great confidence.

Liu Yuan followed almost all the officers of the Tenth Army from Jiang Xianyun to Sun Lianzhong, Liu Yuan went to the headquarters in spirit, and everyone couldn't help but believe the content of the press conference, the commander-in-chief was not sick at all, and everyone had confidence in this battle.

Liu Yuan glanced at the officers under his command, what they all had in common was that they were very young, full of vigor and vitality, and they were confident, which was the time when a person was the most daring and could create miracles.

Liu Yuan pointed to Nanjing and said, "Our current situation is very disadvantageous, no different from Zhu Di, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, if we can't take Nanjing as quickly as possible, we will become lost dogs." The soldiers pay attention to the victory before the defeat, so before talking about how to go south to Nanjing, we must first talk about our retreat route once we are defeated. ”

"Will we lose?" Sun Lianzhong is now a member of the Tenth Army, and he does not believe that such a powerful army will also fail one day.

"Commander Sun Lianzhong, don't underestimate the enemy, there is a difference between the warlord and the Whampoa military, and the battle below is not easy to fight. It's not bad to think of a way out. "Jiang Xianyun's seat is closest to Liu Yuan, which proves that his status in the Tenth Army is the highest except for Liu Yuan.

Liu Yuan saw that there was no doubt except for Sun Lianzhong, and continued, "Everyone should know very well that our strategic posture is very bad, once we are in a passive position and have to be transferred, how bad is the predicament we are facing, almost all of China is our enemy, it is not easy for us to break a way to survive, we have to get here first." Liu Yuan pointed at Guichang and continued.

"Even if we lose, then Nanchang will be in our hands for a while, and we will do the last supply in Nanchang, take our team, including party members who are willing to follow us, complete a great strategic transfer, and go to a place where miracles can be created."

"To Sichuan?" Du Yuming asked with a frown.

"Clever, the land of heaven and abundance, the ancestor has become an emperor because of it." Liu Yuan replied.

"This is too far, at least 20,000 miles, even if we fly, we can't fly there." All the military commanders gasped, in their eyes, the commander-in-chief would not have gone crazy.

"Even if we climb, we have to climb to Sichuan, if we can't get to Sichuan, we will die, in order to live, in order to have the opportunity to continue to do something for this country, we can't be afraid of death, it is a closed kingdom, there is enough time for us to grow up, and do something for the national war that will come soon." Liu Yuan's words were heavy with his personal charm, and today all the officers of the Tenth Army know that there will be a war between China and Japan in the near future, because each of them has read a large number of surveys of various data on Japan by the elite alliance of powerful countries, although they do not know how the data came from, but they know that if they want to fight with Japan in the future, they must have their own foundation, and although Nanjing is good, it is not a place to stay for a long time.

In Liu Yuan's words, if the prosperous world has stayed for a long time, there will be no spirit of struggle, and there is nothing to defend in Nanjing, if it fights with Japan, it will not be held at all, and this insistence on continuing to fight in Nanjing is really Liu Yuan's insistence, and he hopes that Chiang Kai-shek can really give up those rightists and really fight for the country.

This is really something that we know we can't do, and it takes a lot of courage and courage, as well as the courage to lead this unit to continue.

"Commander-in-chief, please don't tell us the route of our retreat, we don't have a second Dai Li, we can't let the troops fall into danger, they are our seeds." At this time, it was Sun Lianzhong who stood up to speak, and his eyes looked at Xie Yingbai.

Xie Yingbai's face was ugly, after all, he used to be the one who supported Chiang Kai-shek to the letter, but Liu Yuan waved his hand and said, "No, no, if I don't even believe you, then I don't need to lead troops, our line is like this, like this." ”
