    At the same time, at the Chongqing headquarters.

    A major staff officer hurriedly walked in and reported to Liu Sheng: "Director, there is an urgent message from the enemy headquarters in Xiaogan. The 74th Army has broken through the Japanese defense line in Minji Town! It is advancing towards Xiaogan!"

    As soon as he heard this, the entire combat hall burst into cheers.

    ¡°Great, as soon as Minji Town is broken through, the Japanese army¡¯s outer defense line collapses!¡±

    "Now this old devil, Higashikata Niguhiko, has only two ways to go!"

    "No, either we will fight a chaotic war in Xiaogan, or we will break out from Xiaogan again!"

    ¡°But whether it¡¯s a chaotic battle in Xiaogan or another breakout, it¡¯s not a good thing for the Japanese army!¡±

    "The Japanese army is exhausted now. To disrupt the war is to seek death. But if we break out from Xiaogan again, I'm afraid it will be a dead end. Now is no better than when we broke out from Wuhan two days ago!"

    Amidst the discussion among senior counselors, several senior generals gathered in front of Principal Chang.

    At this point, it can be said that the overall situation of the Xiaogan siege and annihilation campaign has been decided, and the Japanese army will never make any more waves!

    Chen Shi said: "Principal, this time our army was able to break through the Japanese outer defense line so quickly. It can be said that the 74th Army deserves the most credit, especially Qiu Weida's 306th Regiment, which has the greatest contribution!"

    He Yingpei also echoed: "Yes, if Qiu Weida hadn't led the 306th Regiment to launch a general attack on Minji Town, and then led the 74th Army regiments to attack Minji Town, the rest of the Guangxi Army and the Northwest Army would still be waiting and watching until now.  , if this is the case, we are afraid we will miss the opportunity!"

    Xu Yongsheng said: "So, Qiu Weida should be credited with the first victory in the Xiaogan siege!"

    "In my opinion, it's not just the Xiaogan siege!" Principal Chang waved his hand and said, "The entire Wuhan battle, the 74th Army, especially Qiu Weida's 306th Regiment, should be credited with the first victory!"

    Hearing this, He Yingpei, Chen Shi and others fell silent.

    It is reasonable to give the 74th Army and Qiu Weida the first credit in the Battle of Xiaogan, but it is a bit too much to give the 74th Army and Qiu Weida the first credit in the entire Wuhan Battle!

    After all, the Battle of Wuhan was not only the siege and annihilation battle of Xiaogan, but also the defense battle of Wuhan!

    No matter how great the contribution of the 74th Army is, can it still be compared with Zhu Liangcheng¡¯s 367th Brigade?

    No matter how great Qiu Weida¡¯s contribution is, can it be greater than that of Zhu Liangcheng, Zhong Yi, and Sun Liren?

    Without Zhu Liangcheng, Zhong Yi, and Sun Liren's desperate defense in Hankou and Hanyang, which dragged down Dong Jiuregong Nianyan's Second Army to death, would there be today's counterattack?  It's obviously impossible!

    But no one would say this out loud, they would only say it in their hearts.

    Principal Chang had obviously made up his mind, and immediately went on to say: "Immediately send a message through the Central News Agency to the whole country, and even the whole world, saying that in the Battle of Xiaogan, our 74th Army has made a decisive breakthrough.  Yan's Second Army is about to be destroyed! Our army is about to win the Battle of Wuhan!"

    "Yes!" Liu Sheng responded respectfully and turned around.

    ¡­¡­

    Nanjing, Central China Front Army Headquarters.

    A radio was placed on the large table of Shunroku Hata, commander of the Central China Front. What was playing on the radio was the evening broadcast of the China Central News Agency.

    An interpreter was on hand to translate on the spot.

    "This afternoon, the 74th Army of the First Corps of our 9th Theater Command took the lead in arriving at Minji Town and immediately launched a general attack on the enemy in front of them. After two hours of fierce fighting, they successfully defeated the Japanese army in Minji Town. At this point, the Japanese army  Xiaogan's hastily built peripheral defense line has been broken, and the Japanese army in Xiaogan is doomed!"

    ¡°In this battle, our officers and men of the 74th Army fought bravely"

    Hearing this, Shunroku Hata didn¡¯t want to listen anymore and signaled to turn off the radio.

    Kawabe Shozo, chief of staff of the Central China Front, immediately stepped forward and turned off the radio.

    As soon as the radio was turned off, the office immediately became quiet and you could hear a pin drop.

    After a long while, Okamura Neji sighed softly and said: "General, you are in big trouble now!"

    "Yes." Hebian Zhengzo also nodded and said, "Now there are only two choices before the Second Army, either to stay in Xiaogan and fight a chaotic battle with the Chinese Army, or to break out from Xiaogan again!"

    "I'm afraid there is only one choice." Okamura Neiji shook his head and said, "Staying in Xiaogan and fighting the war with the China Army can only be a dead end, because the Second Army has just experienced a fierce battle in Wuhan, and the imperial soldiers are trapped and tired.  Tired, no body at allstrength, and the Chinese army is not only physically strong, but its key number is dozens of times that of the imperial army!  "

    "But breaking through from Xiaogan again is not optimistic." Hebian Zhengsan frowned, "Now it is no better than when we broke out from Wuhan. When we broke out from Wuhan, the nearest Chinese army to the Second Army was a hundred miles away.  But now, the China Army, which is swooping in from three directions, is completely entangled with the Second Army."

    "That's right." Hata Shunroku also said, "If we can't get rid of the chasing troops, forcing a breakout will probably be a disaster!"

    "It is certain that the odds are against us, but at least there is a glimmer of hope!" Neiji Okamura said, "But if we stay in Xiaogan and fight with the Chinese army, our chances of survival will be cut off and we will definitely die!"

    After a pause, Okamura Neji said again: "Your Excellency, the Battle of Wuhan can be defeated, and we can just win it back later! Even if the Second Army is wiped out, there is no big problem. It's just that the Imperial Army's face is not good-looking, but  But His Highness Nianyan of Dongjiure Palace cannot have any accidents, because this is related to the face of the royal family and the face of the empire!"

    "Soga!" Hebian Zhengsan said with deep approval, "His Royal Highness Jiuyan of Asaka Palace has already had an accident on the battlefield in China. If something happens to His Highness Dongjiuer Palace Jiuyan again, then the royal family will really be disgraced and reduced to a  The laughingstock of the world!"

    Hearing this, Shunroku Hata was awe-inspiring, this matter really needs to be taken seriously!

    At that moment, Shunroku Hata said: "If the Second Army breaks out from Xiaogan again, in which direction should it break out?"

    While talking, Shunroku Hata walked to the big map posted on the wall. Shozo Kawabe and Neji Okamura also walked over and stood in front of the big map.

    Okamura Neiji pointed at the map and said: "To the west and south of Xiaogan is the Fuchan River. It was too late to build a pontoon bridge in the hurry, so it was definitely not possible to break out to the west or south. The Chinese army was swarming in from the north, southeast and east.  , so breaking out in three directions will cause a head-on collision with the China Army, which is also not possible!"

    "Then we can only break out of the encirclement to the northeast!" Hebian Zhengsan said, "Before the third and fourth corps of the China Army have formed an encirclement, break out of the encirclement from Yunwu Mountain and Yangjiao Mountain in the northeast of Xiaogan, and then change direction.  Head north to Xinyang to join the 15th Division heading south along the Ping-Han Railway."
