    In the northern suburbs of Xiaogan County, the position of the New 38th Division.

    Accompanied by Deputy Division Commander Qi Xueqi and Commander of the 112th Regiment Yuan Changduan, Sun Liren was inspecting the defensive positions of the 1st Battalion of the 112th Regiment.

    Although Sun Liren holds nine divisions and nearly 100,000 troops, he also knows very well that this mission is not easy. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a narrow escape!

    Because there is no danger to defend the Xiaogan front line, but the Japanese heavy weapons can easily reach the national army's defensive positions along the railways and highways, and then launch indiscriminate bombing!

    Such a situation made Sun Liren recall the battle situation during the Songhu Battle.

    During the Battle of Songhu, the Chinese army also defended itself against the indiscriminate bombardment of Japanese naval artillery and aviation. Often an entire division would be pulled up, only to be defeated in less than half a day!

    In order to complete the task as much as possible and realize the intention of sticking to Xiaogan for at least ten days, Sun Liren put a lot of effort into building defensive positions!

    In the first step, Sun Liren placed Zhu Liangcheng's honorary first division in Xiaogan County.

    The Honorable First Division will become the last line of defense for the entire front finger. No matter how many days the front eight divisions persist, even if they only persist for one day, the remaining eight days will be handed over to the Honorable First Division.

    Of course, the probability of this extreme possibility occurring is almost zero.

    In the second step, Sun Liren placed the New 38th Division at the front of the defensive position, and placed the 2nd Rong Division and the 3rd Rong Division on the left, right and rear of the New 38th Division respectively. The three divisions formed a formation.  Protect each other.

    In the third step, the remaining five divisions spread out to the left and right wings like wings to guard against the Japanese detours!

    ???????????????? After all, Sun Liren and the others did not accomplish their mission by just holding on to Xiaogan this time, but they had to ensure that the Japs with the organic form were not allowed to enter Hankou, at least not the Japs with the brigade form were allowed to enter Hankou!

    Therefore, in the entire defense deployment, the New 38th Division was placed at the forefront.

    Regarding Sun Liren's arrangement, deputy division commander Qi Xueqi and leader of the 112th Regiment Yuan Changrui had their own opinions.

    Taking advantage of the opportunity when Sun Liren came to inspect the defensive positions, Yuan Changrui muttered: "Master, others always put their wealth last and in the safest place, but you do the opposite.  You want to put your troops at the front of the position and in the most dangerous position, I really don¡¯t know what you are thinking!¡±

    Qi Xueqi also echoed: "Yes, in terms of combat effectiveness, the Rong First Division is obviously stronger than our division. Logically speaking, the Rong First Division should be at the front."

    "That's right!" Yuan Changrui continued, "We should let Rong Yishi go to the front!"

    People are selfish. Qi Xueqi and Yuan Changrui also saw the danger, so they instinctively hoped that Sun Liren could put the New 38th Division at the back and let the Rong 1st Division, which had the strongest combat effectiveness, be at the front.

    "That's enough!" Sun Liren turned around and glanced at Yuan Changrui coldly, and then said, "Captain Yuan, how about letting you be the commander-in-chief?"

    "Master, how can this be done?" Yuan Changrui quickly waved his hand and said, "Stop joking."

    "You still know, don't you?" Sun Liren said coldly, "Then shut up."

    Yuan Changrui then obediently shut his mouth, and Qi Xueqi did not dare to say anything more.

    Sun Liren snorted softly, and then said: "You two, listen to me. If this battle doesn't go well, all the more than 600,000 elite troops in the entire Dabie Mountain War Zone will be destroyed! So put away your little thoughts and die.  If we hold on to our position, even if the whole division fights until only the last person is left, we will never allow us to take a step back, do you understand me clearly?"

    "Listen clearly!" Yuan Changrui and Qi Xueqi stood at attention and responded loudly at the same time.

    As soon as he finished speaking, the accompanying adjutant Wu Songmin suddenly shouted: "Japanese!"

    When Sun Liren, Qi Xueqi and Yuan Changrui looked back anxiously, they saw that smoke and dust were rising at the end of the northern horizon. Apparently, a huge convoy was heading towards Xiaogan!

    Immediately afterwards, the roar of aircraft engines came from the air ahead.

    Looking up, I saw groups of bombers emerging from the clouds.

    "Master, please leave quickly!" After Yuan Changrui finished speaking, he said to Wu Songmin, "Adjutant Wu, protect Master and leave quickly!"

    "You don't have to worry about me!" Sun Liren pushed Yuan Changrui away and shouted, "Just return to your command position. When it's time for me to leave, I will leave naturally!"

    Yuan Changrui stamped his feet and turned around to leave.

    Sun Liren raised the questionI opened the telescope and began to observe the Japanese convoy rolling in from the north.

    Qi Xueqi also raised the telescope, took a brief glance, and then his expression changed.

    But I saw heavy howitzers being towed behind each truck!

    "Master!" Qi Xueqi took a breath of air and said in a deep voice, "Large-caliber heavy artillery!"

    "I saw it!" On the back of Sun Liren's hand holding the telescope, veins like earthworms suddenly protruded. It was obvious that Sun Liren's heart was not as peaceful as it seemed on the surface.

    In Macheng, the war room of the commander's department.

    Zhong Yi turned around and said to Bai Chongbei: "Commander-in-Chief, I'm afraid we can't wait three days!"

    "No wait?" Bai Chongbei said, "You mean to launch an attack now?"

    "Attack now?" Luo Zhengying said, "The fires on the mountains on both sides of Changhe Bay are still not extinguished. We can only attack from the east and west ends of the river valley, but the effect is not good!"

    "Then put out the fire first!" Zhong Yi said solemnly, "First put out the fire on the mountains on both sides!"

    "Put out the fire?" Luo Zhengying, Li Pinxian and others were stunned when they heard this. They set the fire first and then put it out. What kind of operation is this?

    "Yes, put out the fire!" Zhong Yi nodded heavily and said, "We can't wait until the fire goes out on its own, or the Japanese's wounded begin to become inflamed on a large scale before launching an attack!"

    "Isn't this bad?" Yu Jishi said, "This can greatly reduce the losses of our army!"

    "Time does not permit." Zhong Yi shook his head and said, "It will take at least three days until the fire decreases, until the Japs' wounded begin to become inflamed on a large scale, and until the Japs' drinking water is gone! The Japs still have war horses, and they can kill them at a critical moment.  , drink horse blood, so that you can last at least another day!"

    "It's just one day!" Bai Chongbei said, "It's not that I can't wait!"

    Zhong Yi shook his head and said: "The commander-in-chief has never thought that in four days, the Japanese soldiers coming from Shangcheng, Guangshan, and Dawu will arrive? If the Japanese soldiers from these directions are entangled, we will forget it."  Annihilating the 22nd and 27th Japanese Divisions is meaningless because the situation has not improved at all!"

    After a pause, he added: "More importantly, even if we annihilate the Japanese 22nd and 27th Divisions before the Japanese reinforcements from Shangcheng, Guangshan, and Dawu, it will still take three days to get from here to Wuhan.  Heaven! Adding the two together is seven days, and the troops at Xiaogan may not be able to last for seven days!"

    "So, we need to race against time!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
