Huang Ye's group of staff officers, since they came out of Fujian and Guangdong, although they have also drawn up several combat plans, but they have never been adopted, what is valuable is that they have not slackened because of this, at this time, they have given this plan in a targeted manner, which is exactly the idea in Ouyang Yun's heart.

Because of Xia Wenyun's information, Ouyang Yun, who was originally determined to go along the river in order to return to the base area as soon as possible, had already decided to give up this original plan. However, he couldn't make up his mind about how to correct the retreat route for a while. Among them, the Chuxu line must be within the scope of consideration, but he hesitated a little when he thought that once he took the Chuxu line, he might face the encirclement and interception of the superior forces of the Japanese army. And the reason why he called Huang Ye and them over was not because he wanted to listen to their opinions, but because he wanted to use them as the core to organize a suspicious army. At this moment, after listening to Huang Ye's words, he felt that it was not a good way to go to the Chuxu line, although there was a certain risk, but as Huang Ye said, the benefits were also obvious.

On the Chuxu line, there are now two Japanese armies, and a little farther away, where Jiangsu and Shandong meet, there is also a brigade-sized Japanese army. Of course, it's still a bit early to think about this, after all, how to get rid of the pursuers behind you and cross the river safely is the basis of all this, and it is also the key to whether you can retreat safely. In order to achieve this, a vicious battle is inevitable, and the role of Huang Ye's suspicious army is to attract a certain amount of firepower to the main force and reduce the pressure on the main force as much as possible.

After Ouyang Yun assumed the post of commander of the Nanjing garrison, he not only took over the equipment warehouse in the city, but also took over nearly 50,000 people and other logistics personnel, who were arranged to cross the river closely behind the main force of the Central Army, which had originally been forgotten by Ouyang Yun, but this morning Li Hansoul sent a telegram, in view of the serious problem of the reduction of troops, and proposed that perhaps he could choose a suitable one from these people to supplement.

The so-called speaker has no intention of listening, and it is precisely because of Li Hansoul's proposal that Ouyang Yun had the idea of forming a suspicious army.

He glanced at Huang Ye and the others, and said, "Very good, your books in Renqiu are not in vain. Taking the Chuxu line should be a good choice, but now, the first situation that our army has to solve is to cross the river safely. You have been with the army for a long time, and you should have a certain command ability, and I called you here to give you a glorious and arduous task......"

Ouyang Yun said with a smile, Huang Ye and the others only thought that the commander was going to reuse himself, and they couldn't help but be excited and expectant, and looking at Ouyang Yun's eyes also became hot, which made Ouyang Yun a little embarrassed. Let Huang Ye and them lead a suspicious army, nominally it sounds good, but it is to let them stand alone, but in fact, it is to let them be cannon fodder. Of course, at this time, the stakes are too big, even if Ouyang Yun can't bear it in his heart, he also knows that compared with sacrificing the main force, this sacrifice is necessary. At that moment, he said a righteous and awe-inspiring truth, so straight that Huang Ye and the others nodded again and again, and said: Never disappoint the commander's expectations, and the task will be completed.

Of the more than 50,000 people, more than half of them were taken away by Li Hansoul, and the rest were originally controlled by Wang Tianfu, but this guy couldn't even control his own subordinates, let alone these amateur troops. Fortunately, although these people fell into a leaderless state because of the chaos of the first division of security, they did not disperse, and now, two small circles have been formed in Jiangbei and Jiangnan respectively, and Huangye They have Ouyang Yun's warrant, plus the regular army of the third division of the school with a regiment rationed by Ouyang Yun, it will definitely not be a problem to gather these people.

Ouyang Yun explained to Huang Ye and the others the details of commanding this suspicious army, at Xiaguan Wharf, the defense line supported by the remnants of the 1st Security Division led by Shan Xiong could no longer withstand the offensive of nearly three brigades of devils in the Marine Corps belonging to the Japanese Third Fleet.

Since Zhilu Dao Solo Xiong suppressed the first security division, Ouyang Yun asked someone to send him a walkie-talkie, and the battle situation on Solo Xiong's side was tense, so he immediately called for help.

Liu Zheliang answered the phone, he couldn't be the master, and immediately handed the microphone to Ouyang Yun and said, "Commander, it's Brigade Commander Shan who called, and he can't hold it out there." ”

The Marine Corps, which was attached to the Japanese Navy, belonged to the elite of the Japanese infantry. These devils are not only well-equipped, but also fearless of death, and what they like most is that the entire squadron or even the entire brigade launches an attack all over the mountains. On the other hand, the Jiangsu Security Division is not too badly equipped, at least it is better than the previous Sichuan soldiers, but the training is too slack, even if it is aroused by a single male, but the difference in tactical quality and physique is not just bloody can make up, moreover, the Japanese army still has gunboats on the river for heavy fire support, so after holding on for nearly two hours and killing nearly 1,000 people, it can't bear the strength. Although he has not been in charge of this unit for a long time, with his experience, he can naturally see that if there are no reinforcements and the morale cannot be raised, then what awaits him next will definitely be the collapse of the entire division, and at that time, it will be impossible for him to use violent means to integrate as before. Therefore, although from the bottom of his heart, he didn't want to call Ouyang Yun for help, but in the end he could only make this call.

Ouyang Yun was familiar with the temper of a single male, so after answering the phone, without saying a word, he asked Liu Yuqing in front to send two regiments to support. Then, he personally took Huang Ye and others to wait until He Zhengdu, and asked him to transfer a regiment of troops to them, and asked the regiment commander Ye Xiaogang to listen to Huang Ye, and immediately go to the river to collect the people who did not cross the river, and then cross the river immediately.

In the third sequence, the 26th Division was the first to cross the river, followed by the 3rd Division, and the 114th Division, which had the lowest battle losses. Now because of the arrangement of the suspicious soldiers, the first to cross the river will be the mixed second army of the student army led by Huang Ye (this is the number that Ouyang Yun tailor-made for this suspicious army).

Huang Ye and the others led Ye Xiaogang's regiment to the river immediately, He Zheng lowered his eyes to see them off, and said to Ouyang Yun: "Commander, you should also cross the river quickly, the little devils are attacking too fiercely, I am worried about whether I can get rid of them." ”

Ouyang Yun shook his head and said, "According to the original plan, let's come here, you go first, and I'll wait here for the first division commander." ”

"Commander......

"Execute the command. Don't worry, I still have two battalions of guards, and the little devil wants my life, it's not that easy. ”

Ouyang Yun raised the order to suppress people, and He Zhengchuan had to lead his troops to take the first step. However, before leaving, he repeatedly told Liu Kui that he must ensure the safety of the commander.

Ouyang Yun's guard unit originally had a super-formed regiment, but so far, there are only two battalions left. In the battle of Wangfu Lane, Liu Kui shot in his left hand, and at this time, he hung his arms and assured He Zhengchuan: "But there is one person in the guard regiment, and he will definitely swear to protect the safety of the commander!" Then, when Ouyang Yun turned around, he lowered his voice and said to He Zhengchuan: "Senior Commander He, for the sake of safety, you can leave some more people for me." Behind the palace is the 114th Division, although they have been ordered by the young marshal to swear to ensure the safety of the commander, but after all, they are not their own brothers, you leave me some people, and I am so thankful. ”

He Zhengzhen originally had this idea, after all, most of the soldiers of the three battalions sacrificed by the guard regiment were in place of the third division. At that moment, he called Xie Chang'an and took care of him to stay in Jiangnan with the remaining more than 1,000 people in his brigade to ensure the safety of the commander.

He Zhengchuan and Liu Kui were worried about Ouyang Yun's safety, and made some arrangements in private, Ouyang Yun didn't know what to do at this time, what he was concerned about now was the situation of the 114th Division. On the surface, there were three divisions in the third sequence, or even more (counting the 1st Security Division, which was collected by a single male), but because it had been fighting the Japanese army, it was now only three C-level divisions. According to the information provided by Xia Wenyun, in the latest set of plans, ensuring the combat strength of the third sequence is the key, because only in this way can the Japanese army make a wrong judgment, and then the six divisions of the first and second series may seize the opportunity and turn to inflict heavy losses on the Japanese army.

Now the situation on the battlefield of Nanjing is too simple, which is naturally extremely unfavorable to the defenders who are completely inferior in strength, and the result is pure attrition, and the final result is to be eaten by the Japanese army little by little. What Ouyang Yun wants to do now is to complicate this simple situation first, only in this way can the three fists he had divided into in advance be able to strike into a heavy punch.

A quarter of an hour later, Fang Shuhong, who looked tired, appeared in front of Ouyang Yun. Ouyang Yun greeted him and asked straight to the point, "Senior Commander Fang, how is the battle situation behind?" ”

Fang Shuhong obviously didn't expect Ouyang Yun to be here at the moment, he dismounted, saluted, and then replied: "The Japanese army is attacking fiercely, regardless of the cost, Commander Ouyang, why are you still here, you should cross the river immediately." ”

Ouyang Yun smiled faintly and said, "I am now the commander of the Nanjing garrison, and you haven't crossed the river yet, how can I go first?" ”

Fang Shuhong frowned slightly, and said bluntly: "Commander Ouyang, your spirit of dedication to duty is finally admired by your subordinates, but the Japanese army wants to encircle and kill you by name this time, I think you should still get out of danger as soon as possible." Before staying in Nanjing, the young marshal had an explanation, we must ensure your safety, if you don't leave, we will not dare to cross the river. He turned to Liu Kui and said sternly: "Commander Liu, you are in charge of the commander's security work, how can you let the commander put himself in danger." If the commander goes on a business trip and returns to Guangdong, you won't be able to explain it. You hurry up and escort the commander across the river, and the work of the queen of the palace, it is enough to have me. ”

Although Fang Shuhong does not belong to the Cadet Army, he is the division commander, and he is an old soldier, and these words are for Ouyang Yun's consideration, Liu Kui naturally can only be submissive, and his face turned red, as if he had really done something wrong.

Seeing this, Ouyang Yun smiled and said, "Senior Commander Fang, this is my request, it's not about Commander Liu." I'm waiting for you here, but also for the matter of crossing the river, the Japanese army is now not only hoarding heavy troops in the direction of Nanjing, but also in the direction of Chuxian, Dangtu, and Xuancheng, and there are also heavy troops entering Pukou, Hexian, and Wuhu, and it is not easy for us to cross the river safely in the third sequence, and to break through the encirclement of the Japanese army. Judging from the arrangement of the Japanese army, it seems that there is a meaning to leave the entire three of our troops, so a bitter battle is inevitable. The Japanese army is advancing heavily, and it seems that our army is in a difficult situation, but it is not our chance. Master Fang, I have an idea for the current situation......"
