    Nanjing, the headquarters of the Japanese Central China Front.

    Kawabe Shozo walked up to Shunroku Hata with a solemn expression, paused and said: "Your Excellency, General, about five minutes ago, Lieutenant Kawada of the Communications Department of the Second Army sent a farewell telegram. This was also the last message sent by the Second Army Headquarters to Nanjing.  Seal the telegram, and the telegram says that Commander Yoshio Shinozuka has committed seppuku."

    "Alas." Shunroku Hata sighed softly upon hearing this.

    Next to him, Neji Okamura also said with regret: "Shinozuka-kun, what a pity!"

    Although the relationship between Okamura Neji and Shinozuka Yoshio is average, they also know that the other party is one of the few high-ranking generals in the Japanese army who is still sane, but now he died in Wuhan!

    Hata Shunroku said again: "Where is His Highness Nakihiko? Did it say anything in the telegram?"

    "Hai!" Hebian Masazo paused again and again, "His Highness Nakihiko has already broken out of the encirclement alone under the protection of the Yamamoto Brigade!"

    "Yo Xi!" The expression on Shunroku Hata's face softened slightly, and he added, "With the protection of the Yamamoto Brigade, and a small group of troops breaking through alone, the target is small, and there should be no problem with safety."

    "Hai!" Hebian Zhengsan paused again and again, "There must be no problem with safety."

    "Then now we can discuss the next phase of the action plan!" Shunroku Hata paused at this point, and then pulled himself together and said, "There was a call from the base camp saying that regardless of whether the Second Army was completely wiped out by the China Army, the Tenth Army  The formation of the Second Army has become imperative, and its ten divisions have also begun to mobilize."

    While talking, Shunroku Hata walked to the large map posted on the side wall.

    Okamura Neji and Kawabe Shozo also walked over and stood in front of the map.

    Hata Shunroku asked Okamura Neji again: "Okamura-kun, how is the rest of the 11th Army?"

    "Hai!" Neji Okamura paused slightly and said, "The sick imperial soldier has basically recovered and returned to the team."

    "Yo Xi." Shunroku Hata nodded happily and said, "Does this mean that the Eleventh Army has regained its combat effectiveness?"

    "Yes, you can say that." Okamura Neiji nodded and said, "However, General, the weather this year is a bit unusually hot. Although it is already early September, it is still unbearably hot, so you  See, can we delay sending troops for another half month? This way, the imperial soldiers will not be prone to illness."

    "Of course there is no problem with this." Shunroku Hata said, "After all, it takes time to mobilize and organize the Twelfth Army. By the time they arrive at the Wuhan battlefield, it will be mid-September!"

    After a pause, Shunroku Hata continued: "The problem now is the choice of troop dispatch route. Should the Twelfth Army continue to follow the route of the Second Army, or should the Twelfth Army join forces with the Eleventh Army and follow the route of the Second Army?"  The north and south sides of the Yangtze River are advancing towards Wuhan? Forming a pincer-like attack posture, so that the two armies can take care of each other!"

    To be honest, Shunroku Hata is already a bit scary to the Chinese army.

    Shunroku Hata took it for granted that since the Second Army of Higashikanomiya Nurihiko could be completely annihilated by the Chinese army, then Okamura Neji's Eleventh Army and the Twelfth Army that was about to come to China were also unsafe.  , may also be completely annihilated by the national army, so it is safer to keep the two armies closer.

    Shunroku Hata scared the national army, or to be more precise, Zhong Yi was scared!

    But not Okamura Neji. This old devil still stayed awake enough.

    At that moment, Okamura Neiji objected: "General, it's best not to fight like this!"

    "Nani?" Hata Shunroku asked, "Then what do you think Okamura-kun should do in the Wuhan battle at this stage?"

    Okamura Neji heard some dissatisfaction in Hata Shunroku's tone, but he didn't care, because he knew that Hata Shunroku was a fairly upright man and could listen to different opinions.

    At the moment, Okamura Neiji analyzed: "General, before finalizing the battle plan, we must first clarify one point, that is, why do we want to fight the Wuhan Battle?"

    "Is there any need to say it?" Hebian Zhengsan said, "Of course it is to gather and annihilate the main force of the Chinese government forces as much as possible, and then force the Chinese government to surrender to the empire!"

    "Soga!" Neiji Okamura said, "In other words, the imperial army never launched the Wuhan Battle to occupy Wuhan, but to gather and annihilate the main force of the Chinese government forces and force the Chinese government to surrender!"

    After a pause, Okamura Neiji said again: "Once this point is made clear, the fighting method will also be clear!"

    After another pause, Okamura Neiji pointed at the large map and said: "General, please see, if the Eleventh Army and the Twelfth Army are allowed to advance together along the north and south banks of the Yangtze River, we can certainly help each other and serve as horns."It has a good effect and avoids being encircled by the main force of the China Army. However, in this way, the goal of gathering and annihilating the main force of the China Army will be defeated!  "

    Hearing this, Shunroku Hata nodded subconsciously. If the Japanese army is really allowed to advance westward along both sides of the Yangtze River, the China Army can resist step by step and fortify itself layer by layer. Even if Wuhan is finally lost, its main force can retreat calmly!

    After a moment of silence, Hata Shunroku said: "So, I wonder what Okamura-kun has to say?"

    Okamura Neiji did not answer directly, but continued to point to the map and said: "General, look at the map, have you found any problems?"

    Hata Shunroku's eyes fell on the direction of Okamura Neji's finger, and he frowned and said, "Dabie Mountain?"

    Hebian Zhengsan on the side suddenly changed his expression and said: "When the Battle of Wuhan is over, the imperial army will occupy most of Anhui, Hubei and Henan. Then this Dabie Mountains will become a lonely piece of land occupied by the imperial army."  The China-controlled area will pose a serious threat to the security of Central China in the future!"

    "Soga!" Okamura Neiji said, "Just take this opportunity to control the Dabie Mountains!"

    After a pause, Okamura Neiji added: "Even if we cannot control all the mountainous areas, we must at least control all the counties and major market towns in the Dabie Mountains!"

    "Okamura-kun, I still don't quite understand," said Shunroku Hata.

    "Your Majesty General, the whole plan is actually very simple!" Okamura Neiji said, "In the name of rescuing His Highness Nianyan, we urgently ordered the 22nd Division and the 27th Division stationed in Anqing and Hefei to march westward to the Dabie Mountains. At this time, China  The army has just completely wiped out the Second Army, and it is a time when morale is high. After hearing the news, China's top brass will definitely mobilize the main force into the Dabie Mountains, try to win another victory, and also encircle and annihilate the 22nd and 27th Divisions that are marching west for rescue.  !¡±

    Hata Shunroku's eyes moved and he said in a deep voice: "Then what?"

    "Then?" Okamura Ningji smiled sadly, and said, "Then the Eleventh Army will march westward along the Yangtze River, and the Twelfth Army will go south along the Pinghan Line. When the two armies meet in Wuhan, they will gather in the Dabie Mountains.  The main force of the Chinese army in the district will be surrounded by the imperial army. As long as the main force of the Chinese army is annihilated, the Chinese government will have no choice but to surrender!"

    "Yo Xi!" Shunroku Hata nodded happily.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
