With Chen Feng's orders constantly being issued, the entire Eighth War Zone was completely "chaotic", and in addition to the frequent movement of troops every day, ordinary people also received orders to constantly flock to various cities. The railways and highways are crowded with people, and a large number of planes fly by from time to time in the sky, which is very lively.

The Japanese were very nervous about such a big move in the Eighth Theater, and the Kwantung Army and the North China Front had not yet recovered from the losses they had lost some time ago, and they thought that Chen Feng's troops were going to launch a new offensive again, so General Binshan Yuan and the newly appointed commander of the Kwantung Army, General Umezu Mijiro, hurriedly dispatched troops to prepare for the upcoming offensive in the Eighth Theater.

However, what made them depressed was that a week had passed, and although the Chinese army on the front line had moved frequently, they had not crossed the defense area in the slightest, but the city gate was closed, and they didn't care at all about the Japanese troops who reinforced the front line, as if they were air.

In desperation, General Binshan Mototo had no choice but to hope that Chiyoko Koga would be able to obtain useful information from her intelligence brigade. Kaga Chiyoko really did not disappoint Binshan Yuan, and soon deciphered the telegrams exchanged between some banner counties in the Eighth War Zone, and learned that the reason for the frequent transfers in the Eighth War Zone was not aimed at the Japanese, but a major adjustment of power within them, which greatly relieved Binshan Yuan and General Umezu Mijiro, and also relieved General Nishio Shouzo in Nanjing.

The Chinese dispatch had been preparing to attack Wuhan months earlier, but it was put on hold due to the outbreak of the Battle of Nomenkan. Now that the Battle of Nomenkan is over, it's time for them to act. He didn't want the Eighth War Zone to jump out at this time and affect their actions.

On August 3, 1939, the General Headquarters of the Japanese Army dispatched the 11th Army to mobilize the 6th Division, 106th Division, 33rd Division, 13th Division, 3rd Division, 101st Division, 40th Division, 17th Division, 22nd Division, 16th Division, Taiwan Mixed Brigade, 5th Tank Brigade, 6th Brigade, 3rd Flying Group, Fourth Fleet and other troops, a total of 10 divisions, 1 mixed brigade, 2 detachments and 320,000 troops, with the cooperation of 44 warships and 680 aircraft. With the commander of the 11th Army, Lieutenant General Okamura Ninji, as the supreme commander, launched a full-scale attack on Wuhan, where the Nationalist Government was encamped.

This was the largest offensive launched by the Japanese army after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, and the General Headquarters of the Japanese Army dispatched to China attempted to completely destroy the resistance of the Nationalist Government in this form of crushing, captured Wuhan, and broke the surrender of the Nationalist Government.

Not to be outdone, the Nationalist Government won nearly a year of victory in the First Battle of Wuhan. Therefore, Wuhan now has changed dramatically from Wuhan in one year. A year ago, Wuhan was the second largest city in China. With a population of more than two million, it is an important transportation center in the Chinese mainland and a hub for transporting foreign aid from southern ports to the interior. At that time, the Japanese army occupied Nanjing, and the Nationalist Government moved west to Chongqing. However, most of the government offices and the military high command are still in Wuhan. At the same time, a large number of enterprise factories were stranded in Wuhan.

But after more than a year of relocation. The Nationalist Government has relocated all Wuhan government offices, factories and enterprises in Wuhan to the rear, relocated and requisitioned 450,000 young and middle-aged people to build fortifications to strictly prevent the Japanese army from attacking.

Lao Jiang knew very well that the Japanese army would definitely send troops to attack Wuhan. Therefore, he continued to transfer troops around Wuhan, and when the Japanese army mobilized troops to prepare for the second Wuhan Battle, Lao Jiang also dispatched troops in Wuhan to organize the second Wuhan Defense Battle.

In order to win this battle, Lao Chiang can be said to have spent his blood and concentrated 18 group armies, 40 armies, 85 divisions, plus 18 brigades, and 1.15 million people to participate in the battle. The commander in chief of the defense of Wuhan this time is still Minister of Defense Chen Cheng, and all the troops are organized into four corps, Xue Yue, commander-in-chief of the 1st Corps, under the jurisdiction of the 20th Group Army, the 9th Group Army, the 29th Army Corps, the 37th Army Corps, and the 74th Army.

Zhang Fakui, commander-in-chief of the 2nd Corps, is under the jurisdiction of: the 30th Group Army, the 3rd Group Army, the 31st Group Army, the 32nd Group Army, the 11th Army Corps, the 6th Army, the 30th Army Corps, and the 26th Army Corps.

Sun Lianzhong, commander-in-chief of the 3rd Corps, is under the jurisdiction of the 11th Army, the 28th Army Corps, the 2nd Group Army, the 30th Army, the 26th Army, the 55th Army, and the 87th Army.

Li Pinxian, commander-in-chief of the 4th Corps, has the following command: 29th Army, 86th Army, 26th Army, 21st Army, 19th Army, 5th Army, 71st Army, 33rd Army, 45th Army, 24th Army, 27th Army, and 17th Army.

In addition, Lao Chiang also used a group army in Sichuan and two group armies of Qingma and Ningma as a reserve force, and as long as the front-line fighting was tense, these troops would be transferred to Wuhan to participate in the war.

In view of the strength of the Japanese navy and air force, Lao Chiang immediately sent a report to Chen Feng, hoping that the northern air force could be allowed to fight south, and in return, for every fighter lost in the Eighth Theater, the Nationalist Government would compensate two fighters after the war.

Chen Feng will not refuse this kind of thing, and Chen Feng did not look at it if he was compensated or not, but it was Chen Feng's obligation to assist the Nationalist Government in guarding Wuhan, and this was also a good opportunity for the Northern Air Force to fight in actual combat, and it was also a good opportunity to earn points. Chen Feng saw that the sinking of a Japanese patrol boat was 50 points, and the torpedo boat was 200 points, and as for large ships such as destroyers and frigates, it was 1,000 points, and cruisers were 1,500 points.

On the afternoon of 4 August, under the leadership of Liu Nijia, two fighter regiments, two bomber regiments, and one transport plane regiment took off from the two airports of Guisui and Datong at the same time and rushed to Wuhan, while another airborne regiment headed south at the same time.

When the war clouds in Central China were thick with artillery fire, Li Siguang and others, who had already arrived in the Tyumen region, sent a telegram back, saying that they had found evidence of existence in many places in the Tyumen region, but whether it was an oil-rich area and whether there was any exploitable value was still being verified, and the Soviet side had also received news that their geological experts were on their way to arrive.

This news lifted his spirits, although he knew where there must be oil, but after all, there are such things that are not buried in the ground like coal, they are buried in the ground of several thousand meters, otherwise the Tyumen oil fields would not have been discovered until the June and 70s of the 20th century.

I didn't expect Professor Li Da's efficiency to be so high, and there was good news soon. With the current industrial base of the Soviet Union, as long as the location of the oil fields is determined, it will definitely be exploited on a large scale at that time, and according to the agreement between the two sides, the eighth theater of operations only needs a small part of the money to get a large amount of oil, a word cool!

Li Siguang just had good news, the United States came to another happy event, the first motorcycle of Huaxia Machinery Manufacturing Company has been off the assembly line, the first batch of 2,000 new motorcycles were quickly sold out as soon as they were put on the market, even if the price is as high as 1,200 US dollars, but it still can't stop the boom of American citizens buying cars, you must know that even a Ford sedan is now only 500 US dollars.

Because the new motorcycle adopts electronic ignition technology, electric start, disc brake, streamlined body guard, exhaust purification technology, ABS anti-lock braking device, etc., coupled with the appearance of the motorcycle, Huaxia Company imitates the Japanese Yamaha motorcycle, so the Longyi motorcycle produced by Huaxia Company is not only beautiful, superior in performance, easy to use, but also very fast, not inferior to the car produced by Ford Motor Company, and quickly became the new favorite of the American middle class.

According to Yan Changxi, orders from motorcycle factories have been scheduled until the end of next year, and a number of motorcycle manufacturers in the United States have thrown olive branches to Huaxia Company, hoping to buy some of Huaxia's motorcycle design patents.

Chen Feng quickly called back, the patent can be sold, and he can also cooperate with those motorcycle companies, let them work for Huaxia Motorcycle Company, and Huaxia Company will pay them production costs.

In addition to motorcycles, streptomycin drugs have also been produced, under the leadership of the U.S. government and several major families, these drugs were quickly shipped to major public hospitals in the United States, sold to patients at the price of imported special drugs, in just half a month Huaxia Pharmaceutical Company has more than 300 million US dollars on the books, although the sales performance is not as good as penicillin, but the difference is not very large.

Now the Soviet government, the German government, the French government, the British government, etc., have come to negotiate agency matters, hoping to get the domestic agency of streptomycin drugs, and some countries also want to get the sales agency rights of small neighboring countries.

Chen Feng called Yan Changxi back, and the agency power in his country can be given, as long as he pays the agency fee. However, with the precedent of penicillin, other countries will definitely not let these big countries dominate the United States, and there will certainly be no fewer countries that come to negotiate business at that time, and they will also be soft in collecting agency fees, so why give up the entire forest for the sake of a few big trees.

In addition, Yan Changxi also said that she had already sent someone to Australia, and the Morgan family would come forward to negotiate with the Australian government and propose to buy New Guinea Island and Tasmania, and at the same time, the Rockefeller family would come forward to negotiate with the New Zealand government and make a request to buy the South Island.

It should be relatively easy to have the Morgan and Rockefeller families come forward, after all, when it comes to large land deals, a blonde American is certainly more acceptable to Australians and New Zealanders than a black-haired and black-eyed Chinese, after all, they are still the ancestors of the same country three hundred years back.

It's really a good thing in pairs, and the oil matter here has just been resolved, and the United States has planted 2 cash cows. With the huge financial support, presumably it should be no problem to buy an island and buy an aircraft production line. (To be continued......)
