The rebirth of the Republic of China

Because Lu Yihua gave the order to die before he fell into a coma, it took less than two days for the 71st Army to retreat to reach Shawo and Xiaojieling with all their strength.As soon as the troops stopped, Lu Yihua woke up on his own as if he had sensed it.

Without letting Liu Sheng help him, he pushed open the car door and appeared in front of the distressed soldiers of the 71st Army.

The weather was just right at this time, and Lu Yihua's pale face was slightly reddish.At this time, his expression didn't look like a serious injury, but more like exhaustion naturally revealed due to lack of rest for a long time.

From the car to the temporary headquarters, Lu Yihua walked slowly, and the short distance almost used up all the strength he had accumulated for a long time.But it was worth it, if he came out for this trip today, if someone said that he was seriously injured, no one would believe him.

Lu Yihua heaved a sigh of relief, it wasn't because he was trying to be brave, he didn't need to suffer this kind of punishment for being brave, it was because of the force of the battle.Lu Yihua clearly remembered all the maps he could use in the Wuhan Battle.

On the Huaxia map, in the Wuhan area, there are very limited barriers that can prevent the enemy from advancing westward. Gushi was already breached by the enemy before he retreated.Although the Fujin Mountain at the junction of Henan and Anhui occupies a unique geographical condition and stands on the main road leading to the Dabie Mountain with innate advantages, it has already been broken through, and the remaining shopping malls are even more crumbling.There, it is not bad for the Third Corps to be able to defend for seven or eight days.

Since the fall of Xuzhou in May 27, the enemy's attacks have become more and more sharp.

At the beginning of June this year, the breach of the Yellow River in Huaxia forced the enemy to suspend the original combat plan, and the idea of ​​crossing the Dabie Mountains along the Huaihe River and then attacking Wuhan via Wusheng Pass was aborted.Although the breaking of the Yellow River embankment brought only a few thousand casualties to the enemy, in the eyes of the Kuomintang decision-makers, as long as the wartime capital Wuhan can be kept, everything is worth it.

"Back then, the Yellow River was blown up for nothing." After reading the information, Lu Yihua turned around and threw the stack of papers in his hands in front of everyone, "You all have a look."

This stack of thin paper records the movement of the enemy army. Due to the breach of the Yellow River, the enemy army was forced to adjust the order of battle. The enemy second army and No.11 army have a total of about 140 brigades with 25 troops. Fighting in Wuhan.

The specific distribution of the various units of the enemy army is as follows:

First, the main battlefield was shifted from the area north of the Dabie Mountains, with the No.11 Army's five and a half divisions commanded by Neiji Okamura attacking Wuhan along the banks of the Yangtze River; The division assists Wuhan along the northern foot of the Dabie Mountains; the third is to use more than 120 ships of the Navy and the Third Fleet of Kawakoshiro, more than [-] aircraft of the Tokugawa Hotoshi Air Corps, and five divisions directly under the Central China Expeditionary Army to serve as the defense against Shanghai. , Jinling, Hangzhou and other areas to stabilize the rear and ensure the smooth operation of this operation.

Among these three fronts, the one who can fight against Lu Yihua is the second army commanded by King Renyan of Dongkur Palace, which is responsible for entering the Dabie Mountains.For this King Renyan of Dongjiuer Palace, Lu Yihua can be regarded as a well-known name for a long time.

At the beginning, Lu Yihua once guarded the capital Jinling with Tang Zhisheng, the commander of the Jinling Garrison, and was responsible for the defense of Hongshan, Mufushan, Xiaguan, and Yijiangmen. At that time, the head of the Army Aviation Headquarters was responsible for the bombing of Huaxia. A series of missions in densely populated cities, among which Jinling is located.

"According to this information, the Dabie Mountains will no longer be the main battlefield. Although the highest military meeting has already speculated about this, some people inevitably have a fluke mentality." Lu Yihua walked to the chair at the end of the table and sat down, noncommittal , "When the Yellow River was blown up, everyone was crisp and neat. Do you really think that a Yellow River can stop people in Huaibei?"

The meaning of this sentence is obvious, but Lu Yihua's ability to say it does not mean that others can listen to it casually.

As a senior senior in Whampoa Phase I, although Lu Yihua's age is remarkably young in Phase II and Phase III, age doesn't mean anything.As a pure soldier, Lu Yihua may not be the most beloved student in the eyes of the Kuomintang leader, but he is the soldier who can most reassure the principal.He hates politics but is loyal to the leader.

In the Whampoa lineage, Lu Yihua was not the fastest promoted, but he was the only general who was promoted to general at such a young age.

"Since the enemy troops have passed through Mount Fuji, the mall won't be able to defend it for long. I think Commander-in-Chief Sun should also understand that the battle in the mall was just to buy us time." Seeing the gloomy atmosphere in the room, Liu Sheng calmly said Changed the topic, "We have three armies here. Although the number is slightly insufficient, if the arrangement is proper, this battle should be easier than that of Fu Jinshan."

If the mall is lost, Shawo Xiaojieling will become the last effective natural line of defense at the foot of the Dabie Mountains. If this area is breached again, the enemy can easily cross the Dabie Mountains, advance along the road, and approach Wuhan.

This time, in cooperation with Lu Yihua's 71st Army, in addition to the previous 42th Army, the 71nd Army has been added.In view of the heavy losses of the 42st Army and the [-]th Army in the previous Battle of Fujin Mountain, Commander-in-Chief Sun, who was in charge of commanding the operations, handed over the head and tail Xindian of the Xiaojieling defense line to the relatively complete [-]nd Army, while Lu Yihua continued to cooperate with the [-]nd Army. The [-]th Army cooperated to deploy sand nests.

At the same time, Lu Yihua once again received the battle report from the front. On September 40, the day he retreated from Fujinshan, the enemy's right army broke through the defenders and occupied Huangchuan. The First Army of the National Army and the No.[-] Sixth Army met.

Lu Yihua glanced at Luoshan and Xinyang marked on the map, the corners of his lips curled up in an inexplicable arc, and with a swipe of his finger, he refocused his attention on the sand nest he was in charge of.

The various factions among the generals of the national army are clearly separated, the local army and the central army have always been at odds, and the central army, which is the direct line of the principal, also has no shortage of struggles. Although he does not agree with it, Lu Yihua sees these clearly.Half a year ago, the Honor First Division was first established. Although there was an order from the principal, Lu Yihua was able to quickly replenish the troops and pull up the troops in a short period of time.

In the past and present, Lu Yihua had no intention of participating in the struggle.

In his previous life, he was loyal to the soldier's creed and did not involve politics to support the supreme commander; in this life, he hopes to have his own life after the war is over.

During the days of his rebirth, he thought too much.

From war to life, from memory to reality, Lu Yihua discovered that history is not completely unchangeable.

"The equipment of the First Army is much stronger than ours. Although we have the original German weapon model division in our hands, we don't have a strong heavy fire force." In the First Army, their artillery brigade is also the largest so far, and the enemy's right army will have to suffer when they encounter them."

"That's not necessarily true." Lu Yihua shook his head, "The artillery unit can't decide everything."

Chief of General Staff Xiang obviously disagreed, and still insisted on his own statement, saying: "Jing An, the First Army is under Li Delin's command. until November."

Many of these combat staff officers are high-level talents who have studied abroad. When they heard what the chief of the general staff said, they all agreed: "I think what you said is right. The artillery brigade of the First Army is amazing. If our army had With this equipment, not to mention that his Dizhou Military Department only has 1 people, even if there are another [-], we can still guard for half a month."

At this time, Lu Yihua's injuries had stabilized, and those combat staff officers who only found out what had happened afterwards gathered in his personal lounge. After greeting him, seeing that his army commander was indeed in good health, they discussed the upcoming battle one after another.

Regarding their claims, Lu Yihua did not deny them, but just smiled and said, "Then do you know whose orders the First Army and the No.40 Sixth Army directly follow?"

Xiang frowned and asked, "But Commander Hu?"

"Look here." Lu Yihua pointed at the map beside his bed with a baton in his hand, "It's true that Xinyang is under Li Delin's jurisdiction, but the First Army is directly under the command of Shoushan. My classmate is the principal's confidant, Gui Yongqing is favored, right? But there is no way to compare with him. He was promoted the fastest in the first period. Let’s not talk about how he is in actual combat, I just ask, if any of you get such honor and right, hold a heavy soldier Would you be dissatisfied if you want to serve under someone else?"

Everyone looked at each other, Chief of Staff Xiang Rongliu thought for a while, and said: "Hu Shoushan has good personal ability, and he is also good at leading troops to fight. Although Li Delin is powerful, he is not a direct line of the Central Army. If it is I feel uncomfortable, it is certain."

"That's where the problem lies." Lu Yihua affirmed, "If you're just feeling uncomfortable, it's easy to deal with, but the most taboo thing on the battlefield is that the army can't follow orders. Once Li Delin wants to sacrifice Xinyang because of the overall situation of the war, you say Hu Shoushan How would you feel?"

When he was in Huangpu, Lu Yihua was very popular. He was generous and loyal. Many people liked to make friends with him. In addition, Lu Yihua was only in his teens at the time, and he was the youngest among everyone, so he was well received by everyone. Hu Shoushan is among them.Therefore, Lu Yihua knew him fairly well.

In Lu Yihua's impression, he was a classmate who was favored by the principal.Among the students in the first class, the principal admired most were the three heroes at that time, among which Jiang Xianyun who died young was the most, but the one he trusted the most was Hu Shoushan.

Thinking of this, Lu Yihua suddenly realized that, counting his two lifetimes, he had been away from Whampoa for decades.

After the Anti-Japanese War in the previous life, although the first-term students had great military exploits, they suffered a lot of casualties, and there were very few who were rewarded for their meritorious service after the war, let alone those famous generals who were consumed in the civil war.

Seven days passed in a blink of an eye. Lu Yihua's injuries were not serious at all, and the weakness caused by excessive blood loss had suddenly improved before the war. Regarding this situation, even the military medical officer felt incredible.However, when the 71st Army was preparing to fight the enemy, only Liu Sheng knew the truth.

This is the seventh day that the Third Corps fought against the enemy. Lu Yihua and the other two army commanders received the order this evening. The three armies that had completed the fortifications yesterday are now ready for battle. The Third Corps will be at [-] o'clock tomorrow afternoon About to retreat from the mall.

Leaning against the head of the bed, Lu Yihua put the shirt he took off on the hanger, and asked casually, "What are you doing these days?"

Liu Sheng was carefully leaning over to help him change the medicine, frowning and said, "I think it's better to call the military doctor over, it's a bit rotten."

"It's okay, it's not like you haven't had this injury before, besides, aren't you used to dealing with it?" Lu Yihua looked at the wound, but didn't care, and then asked, "What are you doing these days, why don't I see you often?"

Without answering, Liu Sheng finished applying the medicine, wiped the skin around the wound with a wet towel, carefully tied the bandage, and said, "You should be careful, I have never treated this kind of wound before, if it is serious Not good."

After staring at Liu Sheng's serious expression for a while, Lu Yihua sighed, stretched out his hand and pushed him: "I said, did you hear what I asked you?"

"What?" Liu Sheng raised his head in doubt, and then suddenly said, "Well, wasn't Major Zhao sent to Wuhan a few days ago? Since I'm used to doing it before, I've been helping the electrical affairs team organize documents these days .”

Lu Yihua suddenly became interested, stood up and moved his resting stiff body without hurting the wound, turned around and took the shirt that Liu Sheng handed him, and asked, "After tidying up for a few days, did you find anything? ?”

Liu Sheng hesitated for a moment, and stepped forward to help the inconvenient Lu Yihua put on his shirt. After a little hesitation, he still said, "...there is news about the Communist Party."

"..." As if he didn't care at all, Lu Yihua raised the corner of his lips and asked lightly, "Who is it?"
