Three days later, Tianmen County in western Hubei.
After three days and nights of rapid march, the commander's headquarters in the Dabie Mountain War Zone finally retreated safely to Tianmen County, where they met up with the New 38th Division and other departments that had retreated here first.
After hastily settling down at the county office, Bai Chongbei fell asleep.
Three consecutive days and nights of marching made little Zhuge exhausted.
Yu Jishi, Hu Zongnan, Tang Enbo and others did not mention the return of the New 38th Division and the eight honorary divisions, as if this matter did not exist at all.
Just a few days ago, these army commanders were rushing to get the new 38th Division and eight honorary divisions, but now, they seem to have forgotten this matter.
Coming out of the county office, Zhu Liangcheng, Sun Liren and other nine division commanders gathered around Zhong Yi.
"Damn, these are snobbish people." Shi Zude couldn't help scolding, "When our nine divisions were strong, these senior generals wanted to kneel down and call us daddy. Now that we are in trouble, they immediately changed their appearance. Face! Did you see that contemptuous look in his eyes just now? They treat us like beggars!"
"Old Shi, you are not just a beggar now." Liu Yuanlin said, "Your Honorary Second Division only has two to three thousand remaining soldiers, and its weapons and equipment have almost been lost. If they don't replenish your troops, don't give you weapons and equipment, Can you still be tough? To say you are a beggar is to flatter you."
Shi Zude was immediately speechless.
Nothing else, this battle in Xiaogan was too miserable!
In order to block the southward cluster of the Twelfth Army and to guard Wuhan's lifeline, their nine divisions fought fiercely with four Japanese divisions and five heavy artillery regiments on the Xiaogan front line for four and a half days! The price was that when the nearly 100,000 elite troops finally retreated to Tianmen, only less than 30,000 people remained!
After a long while, Shi Zude said gloomily: "But isn't it all for them that we are fighting like this with the Japs? If we hadn't been fighting the Japs 12th Army in Xiaogan, there would have been more than 500,000 soldiers from more than 20 armies in the entire theater. Can the army be withdrawn? Let¡¯s live in their Qingqiu dream! Damn it!¡±
Zhong Yi said nothing.
To be honest, when Zhong Yi deliberately withheld the New Thirty-Eighth Division and the eight Honorary Divisions and prevented them from returning to the army, Zhong Yi had already expected a situation like today!
Once the Japanese army launches the second phase of the Wuhan Battle offensive, the momentum will definitely be unprecedented!
It is impossible to block the heavily-armed group heading south along the Ping-Han Railway without paying the price of blood!
Zhong Yi was even mentally prepared to fight all nine divisions, because the Xiaogan battle was completely different from the Wuhan defense battle. In the Wuhan defense battle, they not only had tunnels and sturdy houses, but they also fought in the streets. Not only did the Battle of Xiaogan lack solid fortifications, but it was also a field battle with little devils!
So, Zhong Yi is mentally prepared for this.
If it happened again, he would still do it.
At this time, Sun Liren suddenly said: "They dislike us and don't want us. Maybe it's a good thing."
"What Brother Fumin said is absolutely true." Zhu Liangcheng said with deep approval, "In this case, maybe the headquarters will use our nine divisions as the basis to reorganize a group army."
"That's right." Liu Yuanlin said, "In this case, we can fight side by side again."
"It's good to fight side by side." Liu Yuanlin also said, "We brothers get along so happily. If it were someone else, I would really worry that we wouldn't get along, and how embarrassing would it be to quarrel all day long?"
Sun Liren glanced at Zhong Yi and said with a smile: "If our nine divisions are really organized into a group army, Zi Ren will have to be the commander of the army, right?"
Zhong Yi shook his head and said: "Fumin, please stop being ridiculous. With my qualifications, I am barely a division commander, and I am still an army commander. What an international joke."
"I'm not joking." Sun Liren said formally, "Based on Zi Ren's ability and prestige, as well as your great contribution in the defense battle of Wuhan, you would feel wronged as the army commander! If you really reward according to merit, Zi Ren Ren, you are qualified to be directly promoted to commander-in-chief of the group army, don¡¯t you think so?¡±
Sun Liren¡¯s words immediately resonated with everyone.
"What Fumin said is that Ziren should be the commander-in-chief of the group army."
"It would be great if Zi Ren could be our commander-in-chief."
"If you ask me, Zi Ren should be the commander-in-chief of this group army. If it were anyone else, I wouldn't accept it!"
"That's enough, you guys." Zhong Yi interrupted directly, "The group army'sI haven't even seen my shadow yet. Are you going to make me the commander-in-chief of the group army? Haven't you heard that no reward will be given for high merit? "
Hearing this, Sun Liren and others immediately fell silent.
High merit is not rewarded, this has always been the case.
¡¡
In Chongqing, Yunxiu Tower.
Lin Wei, director of the Attendance Office, quickly walked into the study room on the first floor.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Principal Chang, who was closing his eyes to rest, opened his eyes.
In the past few days, Principal Chang was extremely excited, and after the excitement, he became extremely tired.
Seeing that it was Lin Wei coming in, Principal Chang said: "Wei Ran, is there any news from Wuhan?"
"Yes!" Lin Wei whispered, "Just half an hour ago, the forward of the Japanese 15th Division, the 51st Infantry Regiment, entered the urban area of ??Hankou, and Hankou has officially fallen."
When Hankou fell, Hanyang and Wuchang were also in danger.
After holding on for more than six months, Wuhan finally fell.
Principal Chang was silent for a moment and then asked: "What day is it today?"
Lin Wei responded respectfully: "Reporting to the principal, today is September 23rd."
"September 23rd." Principal Chang sighed, "Wei Ran, remember this day. Today is the day when Wuhan, the heart of China, fell!"
"Yes!" Lin Wei said seductively.
After another dozen seconds of silence, Principal Chang asked again: "Where are the troops in the Dabie Mountain War Zone?"
Lin Wei said hurriedly: "Except for Li Pinxian's Eleventh Army, which stayed in the Dabie Mountains to fight guerrillas as planned, all the other troops have been safely transferred and crossed the Han River yesterday evening."
Principal Chang nodded slightly and said, "Where are the nine divisions Xiaogan mentioned before?"
"The nine divisions Xiaogan pointed out have also withdrawn to Yingcheng." Lin Weidao, "But"
Seeing Lin Wei stop talking, Principal Chang immediately turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"
Lin Wei sighed softly and said: "However, the nine divisions pointed out by Xiaogan suffered very heavy losses. Sun Liren's New 38th Division was basically disabled, and most of the eight honorary divisions were killed or wounded. Ten of them when they went north from Hankou Ten thousand people, and by the time of retreat, there will be less than 30,000 people left, which is only enough to form three divisions at best!"
"This is also an expected result." Principal Chang said, "But no matter what, the sacrifice of these 70,000 people has resulted in the survival of the 600,000 main force in the Dabie Mountain War Zone. It is worth it!"
