    Dong Jiuya Gong Yanyan was awakened by the faint sound of gunfire and explosion from his sleep.

    He hurriedly put on his clothes and got up and went to the big tent outside. He saw Machijiri Yuki and his adjutant Igarashi Mei already waiting for him.

    "Machijiri-kun." Higashikami Nagihiko revealed his clothes, grabbed the water bottle on the marching table and poured a glass of cold water, drank it all in one gulp, and then asked, "What's the sound of this gunshot?"

    "Hai!" Machijiri Ryouki said after a pause, "Your Highness, you really expected it. The Chinese army really fought back!"

    "Really?" Dongjiuyugong said with a sigh, "But this is nothing unusual. If he doesn't counterattack at night, then Zhong Yi will no longer be Zhong Yi, but another Chinese general!"

    After a pause, Dong Jiuergong Nianyan asked again: "How is the battle going?"

    "Hai!" Machijiri Yuuki paused again and replied, "It should be said that the China Army's offensive is still very fierce, but it is a delusion to break through the imperial army's defense line and regain the positions lost during the day!"

    "Yo Xi!" Higashikawa Miyazaki nodded happily, not feeling sleepy at the moment, and said to Machijiri Yuuki, "Machijiri-kun, it seems that we haven't played Go for a while, come on, come on, take advantage of the time now,  Let¡¯s talk about it!¡±

    Machijiri Rangki said happily: "Since His Highness has such a leisurely and elegant attitude, he should be humbled by his duties!"

    "Yo Xi!" Higashikata Nurihiko nodded happily and ordered Igarashi to play chess.

    ¡­¡­

    Almost at the same time, I was in the Five Prisons Palace in Hankou.

    Zhong Yi and Stilwell are also playing chess, but they are playing chess.

    "General!" Zhong Yi picked up a black piece, jumped three squares diagonally, and called the emperor to capture the white piece.

    Stilwell subconsciously grabbed the white emperor. Just as he was about to put it down, he immediately picked it up again. He did this several times and never figured out where to place it.

    Zhong Yi then smiled and said: "No rush, Colonel Stilwell, you can think about it slowly!"

    Stilwell shrugged and said with a wry smile: "Zhong, I really can't understand you more and more. It's now like this, how can you still be in the mood to play chess?"

    Zhong Yi said: "Colonel Stilwell, we have an old saying in China, which is to be calm in every big event! This means that the more critical it is of life and death, the more calm you must be!"

    "I have also discovered this." Stilwell nodded and said, "Our chess skills are almost the same. We have won and lost in the past few games, but tonight, your chess skills are clearly higher than mine."  Big cut!"

    After saying that, Stilwell pushed the chess piece and said with a wry smile: "If you don't play anymore, in your current state, I can't win at all!"

    "Okay, let's try it another day." Zhong Yi chuckled, stood up and said, "I'm sleepy, I have to go back to sleep."

    "Zhong, are you kidding me?" Stilwell spread his hands and said, "At this time, it's just that you are still in the mood to play chess, and you can actually fall asleep?"

    "Yes!" Zhong Yi smiled and nodded.

    Stilwell said: "Are you not worried at all?"

    Zhong Yi said: "Tonight's battle is just like you and me playing chess. All my forces have been calculated and all my moves have been made. All that's left is to wait for the final result!"

    After a pause, Zhong Yi continued: "This means that whether I stay here or go to sleep, the outcome is already determined and cannot be changed. If this is the case, then why worry?"

    "Okay." Stilwell said, "Zhong, you convinced me."

    Zhong Yi shook his head, laughed and left.

    ¡­¡­

    Zhong Yi can sleep, but in Chongqing, there are many people who can't sleep at night.

    After receiving the secret message from the military commander, Principal Chang immediately drove to the headquarters and summoned senior generals such as Bai Chongbei, He Yingpei, Xu Yongsheng and Chen Shi, as well as senior staff such as Wen Yingxing and Yang Nan to join the battle.  Hall, all night discussing and assessing the prospects of the Battle of Hankou.

    In a word, Principal Chang still can¡¯t bear to part with the hundreds of thousands of elites in Wuhan!

    Once he finds that something is wrong, he will still order the withdrawal of troops again!

    That¡¯s what this person is like, it¡¯s hard to change the things in his bones!

    Principal Chang¡¯s eyes first fell on Dai Li¡¯s face, and he asked in a deep voice: ¡°Yunong, how is the situation now?¡±

    Dai Li replied respectfully: "Back to the principal, at 7:05 in the evening, the Military Command Wuhan Department just sent out a secret telegram, saying that the areas west of Tiren Lane, north of Shajia Lane, and east of Xiongjia Lane in Hankou have been  Lost!"

      "Huh?" Upon hearing this, everyone present, including Principal Chang, changed their expressions instantly.

    Chen Shi even said loudly: "In just one day, most of Hankou has been lost. By tomorrow, the remaining half of Hankou may not be able to be saved!" After saying this, he said to Principal Chang, "Principal, hurry up  Give the order and order the troops in Hankou to withdraw to Hanyang or Wuchang overnight. If it's too late, I'm afraid it will be too late!"

    Immediately a senior counselor echoed: "Yes, as soon as it gets dark, the Japanese aviation troops will arrive, and the Han River and Yangtze River waterways will be blocked. At that time, they want to withdraw the 60,000 to 70,000 troops in Hankou."  Hanyang or Wuchang, it¡¯s basically impossible!¡±

    Principal Chang¡¯s heart immediately rose.

    But Principal Chang still maintained a trace of reason and asked Bai Chongbei: "Jiansheng, what do you think?"

    Bai Chongbei frowned and said: "Principal, I still feel that I should not interfere in the frontline war easily. After all, we are far away in Chongqing. What is the specific situation in Hankou? Only Zhong Yi knows whether to continue to guard or evacuate overnight. As a  Zhong Yi, the de facto commander of the Battle of Wuhan, should know better than anyone else!"

    "I'm afraid he has no idea!" Chen Shi said coldly, "Zhong Yi likes to take risks the most! Yes, I admit that he has succeeded in the previous adventures, but who can guarantee that this time he will succeed?"  Can he also win? I ask, who dares to make this guarantee? Who dares? Who dares?"

    The entire combat hall was silent.

    Not only Yang Nan, Wen Yingxing and other high-ranking officials who were close friends with Zhong Yi did not dare to say anything, but Bai Chongbei and Liu Sheng, the two senior generals who usually supported Zhong Yi the most, also rarely remained silent.

    For no other reason, it was the performance of the 367th Brigade, Guard Brigade and Special Agent Brigade during the day that made Wen Yingxing, Yang Nan and Bai Chongbei lose all confidence.

    In just one day, most of the town of Hankou was lost!

    Such a result cannot help but make people worried about the Battle of Hankou and the future of Wuhan as a whole!

    If possible, Bai Chongbei really wanted to fly to Hankou and ask Zhong Yi face to face how the battle was fought during the day?  How did he end up like this bear?  Also, are there any plans for a counterattack tonight?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
