    In the northern suburbs of Hankou, the headquarters of the Japanese Second Army.

    Higashikanomiya Nurihiko handed a telegram to Shinozuka Yoshio and said: "Shinozuka-kun, this is the telegram just sent by Okamura-kun. The Eleventh Army cannot stand the hot weather in the mountainous areas of Hunan and Jiangxi.  An outbreak of malaria during the war caused large-scale non-combat attrition of the four main divisions participating in the war, and they had no choice but to withdraw to De'an and Jiujiang for rest."

    After reading the telegram, Yoshio Shinozuka couldn't help but sigh and said, "This is such a pity."

    "Yes, it's a pity." Higashikata Nimiya said, "I was looking at being able to defeat the main force of the Ninth China Theater in one go, but malaria suddenly broke out. Not only did the intention of encircling and annihilating the main force of the Ninth China Theater come to naught, but also  The date for joining our Second Army in Wuhan will also be postponed."

    After a pause, Dong Jiuregong Nianyan continued: "The Botian Detachment and the 6th Division advancing westward along the north and south banks of the Yangtze River were also stubbornly blocked by the Chinese Army. It is likely that it will be difficult to break through Tianjia Town in a short time.  Fortress, that is to say, for the next two to three months, our Second Army will have to fight alone.¡±

    Shinozuka Yoshio looked serious and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness is worried about the counterattack of the main forces in the fifth theater?"

    "Yeah, it's definitely a lie to say you're not worried!" Dongjiu'er Palace Nianyan nodded and said, "The Second Army fought all the way west from Xuzhou to Zhengzhou, then turned around and fought south from Zhengzhou to Wuhan. Although there were many encounters along the way,  Although they resisted the tenacious resistance of China's Five War Zones, most of them were defeated and not too many Chinese troops were annihilated!"

    Yoshio Shinozuka continued: "What His Highness said is absolutely true. The hundreds of thousands of main troops in the fifth theater of China have not suffered serious losses in a real sense. They only need two to three months of rest to almost regain their combat effectiveness!"

    Dong Jiuregong Nianyan said: "If it is just the main force of the fifth theater of China, I would not worry at all. But now that the main force of the Eleventh Army has withdrawn from De'an and Jiujiang to rest and recuperate, the main force of the ninth theater of China, especially Xue Yue's  The First Corps can also cross the Yangtze River and participate in the counterattack against the Second Army. If this happens, we will be under great pressure!"

    After a pause, Higashikata Niguhiko turned to Chief of Staff Machijiri Yuuki and said: "Machijiri-kun, your staff will conduct a war game immediately. If the Eleventh Army cannot break through Tianjia Town before October, what if?  The main force of China's Ninth Theater Command is also participating in the Battle of Wuhan. Is the Second Army capable of withstanding it?"

    "Hai!" Machijiri Liangji paused heavily and turned around.

    Watching Machijiri Ryouki go away, Yoshio Shinozuka said again: "Your Highness, although the Eleventh Army's offensive has been frustrated, the main force of China's Ninth Theater also paid a heavy price to block the Eleventh Army. There are not three  It will be difficult to regain combat effectiveness after a month or more of rest, so we actually have enough time."

    After a pause, Yoshio Shinozuka continued: "It will be difficult for the defenders of Wuhan to survive for a month!"

    "I know, but it's always right to be careful." Dong Jiuregong Nianyan said, "Zhuge is only cautious in his life, isn't he?"

    "Hai!" Yoshio Shinozuka said sincerely, "His Highness is able to think so. It is a blessing to all the Imperial Soldiers of the Second Army, and it is also a blessing to the entire Empire of Japan and His Majesty the Emperor!"

    ?????? Higashikanomiya Nurihiko said with a smile: "Does Shinozuka-kun turn out to be a flatterer?"

    "Your Highness is wrong." Yoshio Shinozuka said, "This is a heartfelt statement coming from a humble position."

    Dong Jiuyi Gong Nianyan waved his hand and said: "Let's go watch the war game."

    ¡­¡­

    At the Chongqing Headquarters.

    After the order was issued, Principal Chang and a group of senior generals from the headquarters began to wait anxiously for a reply.

    The reason for anxiety is that the frontline commanders will disobey orders. Just Xue Yue and Zhang Lingfu. Zhong Yi has a history of disobedience!

    Within half an hour, a call back from the Wuhan Garrison Headquarters was sent.

    A communications staff officer hurried into the combat hall and handed the telegram to Bai Chongbei.

    After Bai Chongbei read the telegram, a strange look appeared on his face, but he said nothing.

    When Principal Chang saw it, his heart skipped a beat and he had a very bad premonition.

    Chen Shi said even more eagerly: "Brother Jiansheng, what did the Wuhan Garrison Headquarters say?"

    Bai Chongbei then unfolded the telegram and read aloud: "Headquarters: The order has been received. However, all units under the Wuhan Garrison Headquarters have deployed across the board. It is really impossible to retreat. Please forgive me!"

    "Ah?" Chen Shi said angrily, "Isn't this just disobedience?"

    Principal Chang¡¯s face fell instantly. This Zhong Yi actually disobeyed his orders again!

     "Principal, Zhong Yi really went too far!" Chen Shi said angrily, "You dare not even carry out the orders of the headquarters. If the commanders at all levels on the front line are like him, then what's the point?"

    He Yingpei also said in a deep voice: "Principal, Zhong Yi must be severely punished!"

    Xu Yongsheng also echoed: "That's right, this wind can't last long!"

    Chen Shi then said: "Principal, I humbly request that Zhong Yi be relieved of his post immediately and be brought to Chongqing for accountability!"

    Bai Chongbei sneered and said: "It's easy to remove Zhong Yi from his post, and it's not difficult to take him to Chongqing for accountability. It's just a matter of a telegram. But I want to ask, who will replace Zhong Yi after he is removed from his post?"  ?If Zhong Yi¡¯s dismissal leads to chaos in the Wuhan Garrison and affects ten brigades in Wuhan, who will bear this responsibility?¡±

    He Yingpei, Xu Yongsheng and Chen Shi were silent after hearing this. They could not afford this responsibility.

    "After all, the Wuhan Garrison is now facing the threat of more than 200,000 Japanese troops. If there is any trouble, it will immediately turn into a tragedy. The lessons of the Nanjing Defense War are not far away!

    After thinking about it, Chen Shi was still a little unwilling and said angrily: "Is this the case?"

    "That's enough!" Principal Chang finally couldn't help but interrupt, "Let's not talk about the Wuhan Garrison District, but what about the Ninth War Zone? Why didn't Xue Yue and Zhang Lingfu reply?"

    Chen Shi said: "No reply means reply. Xue Yue and Zhang Lingfu probably want to use the procrastination technique."

    "Delay?" Principal Chang said angrily, "Call the Ninth Theater Frontline Command again and tell them to reply immediately!"

    Before he finished speaking, a communications staff officer suddenly walked in and reported: "Principal, there is an urgent call from the Ninth War Zone!"

    "Have you finally replied?" Principal Chang snorted and said, "Ci Xiu, please read the telegram and see what your subordinates say!"

    "Yes!" Chen Shi responded respectfully and took the telegram from the hands of the communications staff officer. However, after taking a quick glance, he felt as if someone had cast a body sweat on him and he was stunned.

    Principal Chang frowned and asked, "Cixiu, what's wrong?"

    Chen Shi snorted and quickly replied: "Principal, the telegram said that Okamura Neji's 11th Army has withdrawn its troops!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
