At the same time, on the ruins of the bell tower of the Hankou railway station.

A big battle, countless bombings, countless shellings, almost razed the entire Hankou railway station to the ground, and the core area of the fortress was originally built left a terrifying crater!

But the bell tower was miraculously preserved!

This bell tower, which has collapsed most of it, will eventually go down in history forever as a witness to the war of the century!

But now, the bell tower of the railway station has become Zhong Yi's best observation post, Zhong Yi, Feng Yuxiang, and Zhu Liangcheng are on the bell tower at the moment, observing the movements of the Japanese army.

Although the Japanese army had evacuated the city and showed signs of evacuating Wuhan, until the last moment, the string in Zhong Yi's mind was always tight!

Because he is the commander of the Japanese army, he will definitely carry out a fake withdrawal before the real withdrawal of troops, and launch the last general attack after the defenders have relaxed!

Therefore, until the Japanese army really evacuated, Zhong Yi did not dare to take it lightly!

At this time, Zhong Yi, Feng Yuxiang and Zhu Liangcheng were standing on the top floor of the bell tower, holding binoculars, observing the Japanese army camp in the northern suburbs of Hankou!

From a distance, I saw a larger group of cavalry coming out of the barracks.

Taking the cavalry to open the way was already expected by Zhong Yi! Because each permanent division of the Japanese army has a cavalry wing, in the previous defense of Wuhan, the Japanese cavalry did not participate in the battle, and now it can be said that it is the only wing among the various combat units of the Japanese army that can still retain a complete formation!

The rest, like the sappers, the baggage troops, and even the artillery wings, can no longer remain intact!

Because in the previous street battles, a large number of Japanese auxiliaries had already died on the street fighting battlefield!

After the cavalry passed, there were teams of trucks, and it can be seen from the deformation of the truck tires that the load is not light!

After the truck passed, it was a team of horse-drawn carts, but what surprised Zhong Yi and them was that the carts were not loaded with materials, but people, wounded one by one!

Thousands of horse-drawn carts, tens of thousands of wounded!

Such a scene is really spectacular visually!

Seeing this scene, the string that was tense in Zhong Yi's mind finally relaxed completely.

The devil is a real withdrawal, not a fake withdrawal and a real fight, the defense of Wuhan is really over!

"It's a pity!" Zhu Liangcheng said without regret, "If we still have the strength to spare, if we give the devil a fierce counter-assault at this time, the devil will collapse in an instant!" ”

After a pause, he said: "If this is the case, there is no need for the main force of the war zone at all, and our Wuhan garrison alone can clean up the second army of the East Jiuer Palace!" ”

Zhong Yi couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this.

With the strength of the Wuhan garrison itself, the second army of the East Kurenomiya Tsuruhiko was cleaned up?

How dare you say it! Don't look at how many are still active in the entire Wuhan garrison.

Now if there are five thousand Zhong Yi who can move, I dare not say, but ten thousand is definitely not enough!

That is to say, after the First World War, the 150,000 people in the Wuhan garrison have fought to less than 10,000, and even if the wounded are added, it is less than 40,000, and the casualty rate is more than 93 percent!

Such a battle can be called one of the most tragic battles in the history of mankind!

In this case, the Wuhan garrison simply does not have the ability to launch a counterattack!

Even if the main forces of the Fifth and Ninth Theaters rush to Wuhan, the Wuhan Garrison will not be able to participate in the next counterattack!

Then again, even if the Wuhan Garrison has the ability, I'm afraid it won't participate in the counterattack!

As for the reason, it is actually not complicated, because the troops of the Wuhan garrison have already held Wuhan and won the first half of the battle of Wuhan, and if the troops of their garrison are still dominated in the second half, wouldn't it seem that the main forces of the fifth and ninth theaters are very incompetent? You can't take all the benefits, right?

For the sake of checks and balances, Principal Chang will definitely intervene!

Feng Yuxiang, who has been fighting with Principal Chang for most of his life, knows the Tao very well, and patted Zhu Liangcheng on the shoulder at the moment, and said: "Brother, you can be content, this time our garrison has defended Wuhan, which is already a credit to the sky, and then the next good show, let others sing, we can't let us take all the benefits." ”

Zhu Liangcheng smiled and said, "That's what I said." ”

Zhong Yi turned around and walked out, saying as he walked: "In the next 24 hours, I want to sleep well, no matter what happens, even if Little Japan parachutes a division to Wuhan, don't wake me up!" ”

Feng Yuxiang smiled when he heard this, and also said, "I also have to go back and get a good night's sleep!" ”

Zhu Liangcheng was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I also sleep, wait for me!" ”

……

It was not only Zhong Yi, Zhu Liangcheng and Feng Yuxiang who reacted in the same way.

There is also Sun Liren, and even all the officers and soldiers of the entire Wuhan Garrison!

Because the men in the cooking squad were all on the battlefield, resulting in a serious shortage of manpower in the gang, Chen Luyuan, who had been promoted to the commander of the 367 Brigade Baggage Battalion, also returned to his old business and became a man again.

It took more than two hours to steam two large drawers of hot white flour steamed buns.

then brewed cabbage leaves with boiling water to make a large bucket of soup, and then Chen Luyuan personally picked up two large drawers of steamed buns and vegetable leaf soup and came to the position on Huangpi Street.

"Brothers, eat!"

Chen Luyuan opened a long tone and howled up to the sky.

In normal times, there was no need to shout at all, smelling the fragrance of steamed buns and vegetable soup, these big-headed soldiers had already rushed out of the position to surround Chen Luyuan.

But this time, the whole position was as if it was dead, and there was no reaction.

"Brothers, there are white-flour steamed buns!" Chen Luyuan once again raised his head to the sky and howled.

However, to Chen Luyuan's great surprise, the entire position was still silent.

"Hey, these bunnies have changed their temperament?" Chen Luyuan immediately grabbed a few white-flour steamed buns and walked into the ruins of a private house on the side of Huangpi Street.

The ruins of this house were the defensive positions of the 367th Brigade.

After entering the ruins of the house, Chen Luyuan found that the three veterans guarding inside were actually asleep!

I saw that the three veterans were leaning against each other, already sleeping soundly, Chen Luyuan came in just now and made such a big move, and he didn't react at all.

However, the three 155mm shells in his arms were still hugged tightly!

"Oh!" Chen Luyuan's pupils suddenly bloomed, and he quickly took out a special wrench from his satchel and closed the safety of the three shells!

Back on the street, Chen Luyuan was about to ask someone to notify the artillery and close all the insurances for the remaining shells, but he saw the artillery battalion commander Mountain Artillery rushing over with people.

Chen Luyuan breathed a sigh of relief.
