    In June in Wuhan, the sun was scorching like a stove.

    In this era without air conditioning, cooling has become a big problem!

    Although he is the nominal leader of China, it is difficult for Chiang Kai-shek to get any favor from God. The sweltering heat of the past few days has made him very uncomfortable.

    Unable to bear the intense heat in the room, Chairman Chiang accompanied his wife to the courtyard.

    Sitting on a wicker chair in the courtyard, he whispered to his wife.  In the distance, the clear water of East Lake is rippling, shining with golden light under the sunlight.  Nearby, the green grass and flowers of Luojia Mountain are glowing green.

    If it weren¡¯t for the occasional air raids during this period, if it weren¡¯t for the sand barricades and sentries along the streets and the flood of refugees and wounded soldiers, this would have been an unforgettable and intoxicating flower season.

    "Darling, do you know why this mountain is called Luojia Mountain?" Madam looked at the quiet courtyard path and asked with interest.

    "Hmm!" Chairman Chiang hummed absentmindedly.

    Since the "6¡¤24" air battle, the Japanese aviation force seems to have been frightened, so their planes have come much less. Therefore, Chairman Chiang has had a good rest these days, and the military and political plans for the defense of Wuhan have also been  It's going smoothly.

    Of course, what excites him even more is that he was reappointed as the president of the Kuomintang not long ago.  The power in his hands suddenly expanded sharply. It seemed that his power was still stable.

    "Actually, Luojia Mountain was originally called Luojia Mountain, but later people thought it was too rustic, so"

    The madam originally wanted to show off her rich knowledge, but she didn't expect that her husband didn't care at all what she was saying, and then asked: "Darling, what are you thinking about?"

    "Think about the battle situation on the front line and the air force!" Chairman Chiang said worriedly.

    "What's going on with the battle situation on the front line? Does it have anything to do with the Air Force?" Madam asked hurriedly. It was related to the Air Force, and she, the Secretary-General of the Air Force, couldn't ignore it.

    "The Madang Fortress is lost. The Japs are marching westward along the Yangtze River and will soon reach Pengze! I wanted to let the Air Force take the initiative to attack, but Zhou Zhirou pushed me back!" Lao Jiang said with a look on his face.  He said depressedly.

    "Ah, Zhou Zhirou doesn't have the guts. Is there something else going on?"

    Madam knows Zhou Zhirou, the Chairman of the Air Navigation Commission, very well. She knows that he is not the kind of person who is bold and rash. If there is no special reason, he will never disobey Chairman Chiang.

    "Zhou Zhirou said that the air force is now too weak to take the initiative, and the Japanese army is likely to carry out retaliatory bombing of Wuhan. Their most important task during this period is to defend the city of Wuhan. He also said that once the Japanese army comes to attack, their air force will inevitably  It will give me, the chairman of the committee, a surprise!¡±

    "Pfaff is right to say that. Our air force is indeed weak, and Wuhan is the wartime capital. How can we let the little devil's fighter planes fly around? If a country's wartime capital cannot maintain peace every day,  So how can military morale and morale be maintained, and what should be the international image?" Madam asked.

    "Madam, the stability of the rear is really a top priority, but the front line is equally important! Moreover, the air force has combat effectiveness. It cannot just wait to be beaten. It should still attack." Lao Jiang stared at the East Lake in the distance, thinking about something else.

    Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly a shrill air-raid siren sounded in the city, and then he saw Wang Shihe running over with a dozen guards.

    "Principal, there was an emergency call from the Aviation Commission just now saying that observation posts No. 67 and 96 discovered that a large number of Japanese fighter planes were flying to Wuhan from the direction of Nanjing. Principal, please go to the local air-raid shelter to take shelter immediately!" Wang Shihe said anxiously.

    "Then the Air Navigation Commission didn't say how to defend against the enemy?"

    "No, Director Zhou seemed very anxious when we called just now. He gave a few brief explanations and then hung up. Maybe they had other plans!"

    "Yeah, I got it, let's go into the air-raid basement!"

    Separation lines  have

    When the air defense siren sounded, Li Guoyao was reading documents in the prevention and control headquarters.

    The document was sent over by Xu Hu this morning, mainly to report on the situation of the 61st Army during this period.

    Since Li Guoyao moved to the prevention and control headquarters, all military affairs of the 61st Army have been handed over to Xu Hu, and Xu Hu also followed Li Guoyao's order and pulled the entire army to the east of Wuhan for training.

    At the same time, a large number of troops were mobilized to form patrol teams to maintain public security in the city in the name of Wuhan Garrison Headquarters.

    Of course, the 61st Army does not really want to kill those security policenot for the jobless people and stragglers in the city.

    Since these people were young adults and liked to fight bravely, Li Guoyao ordered the patrol to arrest such people when they encountered them, and then bring them to the barracks for training. From now on, these people will be the supplementary soldiers of the 61st Army.

    Although forcibly arresting people in this way will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among some people, there is nothing Li Guoyao can do.

    The family fortune of the 61st Army had already been wiped out when they returned to Germany. At present, most of the soldiers were recruited from the Eighth Army. For Chairman Chiang, he has done his best, so Li Guoyao also  He did not expect Chiang Kai-shek to replenish his troops.

    ¡° Leaving aside the fact that there is a shortage of troops everywhere now, even if Wuhan has 200,000 additional troops, it may not be enough. Therefore, if you want to restore combat effectiveness, you have to rely on yourself.

    What's more, the war is about to begin. The current situation of the 61st Army is really not good. There are too few soldiers. Once the Japanese army attacks in a large scale, the 61st Army will definitely go to the battlefield. By then, with this small force, it will not even be able to protect itself.  reluctantly.

    Because of this, Li Guoyao paid attention to these gangsters, unemployed vagrants and stragglers, and the effect was very good.

    In less than half a month, Xu Hu and others arrested more than 6,000 people, half of whom were gangsters, one-third of them were stragglers, and the rest were all wandering around the city.  unemployed.

    In addition, the 61st Army also set up recruitment stations in various prosperous places in the city. When they learned that General Li Guoyao's army was recruiting new soldiers, Wuhan citizens enthusiastically joined the army, and the recruitment stations were overcrowded for several days.

    But since he was at the feet of the emperor, Li Guoyao did not dare to be presumptuous. He only recruited 5,000 people and then stopped.

    Li Guoyao knew Lao Jiang's character very well. He was too suspicious and few people could truly be trusted by him, especially the generals who commanded the troops outside. Whether it was the famous Xue Yue or Li Zongren, or others,  Far less beautiful than it seems.

    The 61st Army is a miscellaneous army. If it has 20,000 people, it is already amazing. One or two thousand more establishments can be justified, but any more will be suspicious. This is why Li Guoyao left a large number of troops behind when he went south.  The main reason for Xinzheng is that big trees attract wind.

    After half a month of hard work, the 61st Army now has more than 27,000 combat troops. If there are more, it will probably exceed 30,000. This will inevitably cause discomfort to Chiang Kai-shek, so Li Guoyao acted decisively  ordered the troops to stop conscription.

    After listening to the call from the Aviation Commission, Li Guoyao showed a faint smile!

    That¡¯s right, it¡¯s a smile!

    Li Guoyao was really laughing at those little devils without guessing. He had just told Zhou Zhirou two days ago that the little devils would definitely take revenge, and even seemed to be a little bit indifferent. At that time, Zhou Zhirou still didn't believe it, but he didn't expect it.  It only took a few days for the dog days to come.

    Japanese fighter planes are attacking, but Li Guoyao is not worried at all. After these days of hard work, Li Guoyao has deployed defenses in key areas of the city. As long as the little devils prepare to bomb those important areas, they will inevitably suffer heavy losses.

    As for those less important places, so what if they explode?  Anyway, what was lost was only some residential buildings. It would be enough to rebuild after the war and it would not affect the overall situation.

    "Besides, Li Guoyao had basically guessed the target of the little devil's revenge this time, and then shouted to the combat staff outside the door: "Commander Wang, come in!"

    "What are your orders, sir?"

    "Pass me an order: Have the 7th and 4th regiments move to Wangjiadun Airport immediately, and call the Aviation Commission to have all the fighters of the 4th Group withdraw to Nanchang, but some fighters must be left on the airport.  Yes!" Li Guoyao warned.

    "yes!"
