During the War of Resistance Against Japan: After being scattered at Cangyunling, he brought back a

Even if Wu Han had used half of his troops, he could not have been defeated in such a short time.

Why pull this stunt now?

He'd risk his life to take Bai Congxi to hell with him!

The more Xue Yue thought about it, the angrier she became, and her face turned a deep liver color.

"commander!"

"This must be an order from Yamashiro!"

After a pause, the deputy couldn't help but speak up.

"Order from Yamashiro?"

After his deputy finished speaking, Xue Yue immediately frowned.

He was in charge of the Battle of Chang 427!

The order from Yamashiro should have been sent to him directly, not directly to the secondary command.

That seems highly unlikely.

Which direction did they retreat in?

Then, Xue Yue looked up at his deputy and said.

"Return to the commander!"

"It's the three northeastern provinces!"

"The three northeastern provinces?"

"You mean they retreated north?" Xue Yue asked incredulously.

It goes without saying who is in charge of the three northeastern provinces!

"Correct!"

"And the commander!"

"Not only Commander Bai, but also Commander Li Zhongren of the Fifth War Zone, who was originally stationed in Shanxi Province, has led his troops north!"

"Joint deployment!"

The deputy paused for a moment before continuing.

"Li Zhongren has also gone north?"

Xue Yue frowned subconsciously.

"commander!"

"Do you think it might be the new Third Front Army..."

At this moment, the deputy hesitated before speaking.

If the mountain city can be so firmly defended at this critical juncture, then there is only one outcome: the battle in the three northeastern provinces is over.

The new Third Front Army can no longer enter the pass; if it does, the credibility that Chongqing has built up over the years will be completely destroyed.

As for the mountain city and the new third army, they were already clearly separated after the Battle of Taipei!

"Whether it is or not!"

"Yamashiro has already lost this time!"

After a moment of contemplation, Xue Yue waved his hand and spoke.

"commander!"

"As for Changsha, with our current strength, holding out until the British troops arrive shouldn't be a problem!"

"And even if Bai Congxi hadn't left, I don't think he would necessarily have made a move!"

The deputy paused for a moment before speaking.

Bai Congxi has been holding back or preserving his strength. What else can he do?

"It's not about that!"

"Defeat before the battle even begins!"

"Be extremely vigilant against your own people!"

"The true territory of China still needs the assistance of outsiders!"

"Mountain City has already lost!"

"Still a crushing defeat!"

Xue Yue took a deep breath and said.

Regardless of what the New Third Front Army intends to do, since its establishment, it has been a passionate army dedicated to the rejuvenation of China.

Now, facing a formidable enemy, and with no united front against them, two elite forces have been mobilized to the north for defense.

This is tantamount to entrusting the great responsibility of the nation to someone else!

"commander!"

"You know!"

"We cannot influence Shancheng's mind!"

"And Changsha..."

The deputy tried to say something, but ultimately choked back his words.

He understands what the commander is saying!

The vast land of China, with 400 million people.

We've already lost because we have to rely on outsiders to defend Changsha!

Even though they died on the battlefield, they inspired the people.

This doesn't count as a loss!

But now...

"No!"

"Shancheng knows better than anyone else!"

"Ultimately, it all comes down to petty-mindedness!"

Xue Yue chuckled self-deprecatingly.

With the deployment of the new Third Front Army into the pass, the Changsha Campaign can certainly be resolved quickly.

However, the mountain city never relayed the order to the new Third Front Army.

They even went so far as to place their reliance on the British army.

"commander!"

"That's still..."

"After all, we are..."

The deputy looked hesitant and said something.

He knew the commander's temperament best; he was full of passion but had no interest in anything else.

But after all, they were eating food from the mountain city.

"okay!"

"He just left without a second thought!"

"This battle must continue!"

"We must not only fight, but also fight to boost morale!"

Immediately, Xue Yue stood up abruptly, his expression grave.

"Commander! What do you mean?"

"The Japanese devils want to defeat us before the British army enters Changsha!"

"Rely on Changsha and the British forces to maneuver!"

"If we are truly defeated before then, the entire nation of China will never be able to hold its head high!"

Xue Yue slowly lowered his head to look at his deputy.

"Commander! You mean...?"

"Notify me!"

"Fight with all your might! If the company commander is killed, the battalion commander takes his place! If the battalion commander is killed, the regimental commander takes his place!"

"No commander of any rank is allowed to retreat!"

"Even if it means burning everything!"

"We can't let the Japanese devils succeed!"
