The fall of Wuhan had a huge impact, and people in Beiyang were panicked. First, Cao Kun lost on the battlefield, losing more than half of his troops, and then Wu Peifu couldn't open the situation for a long time. Sun Chuanfang was trapped in Zhengzhou Cheng, and was pressed by Yan Xishan like a grandson. The Wehrmacht launched several tentative attacks on the Huai River, and although Beiyang reacted greatly, it did not take advantage of it in the slightest. Once the Wehrmacht crosses the river on a large scale, the situation in Beiyang will definitely not be better. All of this made Feng Guozhang anxious.

The troops were sent to the battlefield one by one, but it was always difficult to achieve the expected results, and the combat effectiveness displayed by the Wehrmacht shocked the entire Beiyang.

After the fall of Wuhan, Beiyang's power in the two lakes was devastated. In order to keep the territory of these two provinces as much as possible, Feng Guozhang telegraphed to the governments at all levels of the two provinces, allowing them to organize their own armies to resist the attack of the Wehrmacht. This order also shows the weakness of the Beiyang forces, and if the Beiyang is not eliminated by the Wehrmacht this time, this order will have unspeakable hidden dangers.

At the same time, the Beiyang headquarters finally began to shrink its forces. The Wehrmacht is now breaking through the Yangtze River and entering the Lianghu region, greatly reducing the power of Beiyang. At this time, it no longer makes much sense for Wu Peifu to continue to stay in northern Henan. At this time, Beiyang could only give up some provinces to concentrate on defending the remaining provinces.

With Feng Guozhang's order, Wu Peifu quickly led the army forward. The First Army, of course, was not going to let it go. In particular, the First Division of the National Defense Army, under the leadership of Qian Yansheng, rushed even more frantically, biting Wu Peifu when he moved to the Xinyang area. The two sides engaged in fierce fighting in the Xinyang area.

After Zhenzhen's Second Army took Xinyang, there were not many soldiers left in Xinyang City, and they were basically recruits from the reserve army. Combat effectiveness is very limited. If it weren't for the first division catching up, I'm afraid Xinyang would have been easily broken through by Wu Peifu.

In the face of the frantic counterattack of the First Division of the National Defense Army, Wu Peifu broke his wrist, leaving an army of 30,000 people to block the attack, and then led the remaining 50,000 people to quickly turn in, bypassing Xinyang City, and going straight to Anhui.

In the face of this situation, the first division is also very helpless, although the first division is very strong in combat, but after continuous combat losses, the total strength is only more than 20,000 people, and it is simply unrealistic to want to leave Wu Peifu's 80,000 army, even if the 30,000 army that is now fighting and blocking is not something that the first division can easily digest.

In the end, Hu Jingyi led the army to arrive, surrounded the lone army in Beiyang, and then annihilated them all. Until this time, there were no large-scale troops in Beiyang in the entire territory of Henan.

The Beijing government urgently mobilized officials, and the headquarters of the National Defense Forces also determined the candidate for the commander of the Henan garrison. As a province with a large population, the sooner Henan settles down, the greater the benefits to the Beijing government.

Zhengzhou City.

During the period of siege, Sun Chuanfang was not idle. He recruited people in the city and constantly strengthened the walls of Zhengzhou to defend against the attacks of the national defense army. Although Zhengzhou is the capital of Henan Province, but before, the provincial capital of Henan was Luoyang, and the time for Zhengzhou to move to the provincial capital was still very short, and there were not many grain and grass reserves in the city, and it could not last for a long time if it was saved. Fortunately, there were many wealthy families in the city who hoarded a lot of grain and grass, and Sun Chuanfang used some means to get a lot of grain. Yan Xishan led a large army to hoard outside the city, and Sun Chuanfang's several tentative attacks were blocked by Yan Xishan. In the original time and space, in the early period of the Republic of China, Sun Chuanfang was also regarded as the number one person, but there was still a gap compared with Yan Xishan, who could always stand tall in the Republic of China. Now Yan Xishan is not the head of one side, but the general of the Wehrmacht, and he has put all his energy into the combat aspect, and the military talent he has shown is very strong. …,

After Wu Peifu was about to transfer to Anhui, he gave Sun Chuanfang in Zhengzhou an order to break through. Sun Chuanfang knew that the Beiyang Army was in Henan and that he had to make a decision as soon as possible. Otherwise, when the Wehrmacht frees up more troops, I am afraid that he Sun Chuanfang will still not be able to avoid the fate of annihilation.

So, Sun Chuanfang took advantage of the night to launch a breakthrough operation. After Yan Xishan received the news of Wu Peifu's evacuation from Henan, he judged that Sun Chuanfang would definitely flee. All his soldiers were on alert. However, the strength of the two sides is equal, and in terms of elite troops, Sun Chuanfang's troops still have a slight advantage. In terms of operations, Sun Chuanfang also held the initiative in the war. In order to confuse Yan Xishan, Sun Chuanfang launched a breakthrough operation from all sides of Zhengzhou City at the same time, and for a while, the entire Zhengzhou City was plunged into a war. The people of the city trembled and cowered in the basement of their homes, fearing that they would accidentally become victims of war.

In the end, Sun Chuanfang concentrated his forces to attack the north gate of the Wehrmacht, and after paying huge casualties, Sun Chuangang escaped with the remnants of less than 20,000 people.

Yan Xishan's headquarters.

"Deputy Commander, Sun Chuanfang actually chose the North Gate, which is really beyond our expectations!" Shang Zhen said in a deep voice.

"Sun Chuanfang can lead a large army in the Beiyang Army, and he is not a straw bag, if it is not for our Second Army, plus the troops in his hands do not have much combat effectiveness, it is not known who will kill the deer." Yan Xishan said indifferently. If Yan Xishan, who stirred up the world in the middle and late stages of the Republic of China, said these words, Sun Chuanfang would be considered to be defeated but still honored. But at this time, Yan Xishan was annexed by the Northeast without showing his talent, and if his words reached Sun Chuanfang's ears, I am afraid it would be regarded as a naked humiliation.

"I immediately organized the troops in pursuit, and they will definitely take the opportunity to turn back to the east when they see that they are fleeing north. We had plenty of time to chase down. Shang Zhen said in a deep voice.

Yan Xishan nodded, he agreed with Shang Zhen's opinion. The north is the hinterland of the National Defense Army, and with 20,000 remnants of the army, he will not dare to go even if Sun Chuanfang is given ten dares.

"Report to the deputy commander, news came from the reconnaissance battalion that Sun Chuanfang's troops fled to the north of Zhengzhou and dispersed after twenty miles. We couldn't find Sun Chuanfang's whereabouts. ”

"What?" Yan Xishan opened his eyes in shock.

"I remember that although Sun Chuanfang suffered heavy losses when he broke through, he still had at least twenty or thirty thousand troops in his hands, with his control over the troops, how could there be a collapse?" Yan Xishan felt incredulous.

"I also feel that there is a problem here, we have besieged Zhengzhou City for so long, and only the common people have escaped, not a single Beiyang soldier. In such a disadvantageous situation, these rabble in Beiyang did not sneak out and surrender, which shows that Sun Chuanfang has a very strong control over the troops. Unless such a general dies in battle, his troops will never collapse. Shang Zhen nodded.

"Deputy commander, the reconnaissance battalion has already captured several routs and is being interrogated, and there is no accurate news yet." said the staff officer.

"Got it, report it immediately if there is news!" Yan Xishan said with a wave of his hand. Then lead the army into the city of Zhengzhou. No matter what the reason for the collapse of Sun Chuanfang's troops, it was always difficult for the Wehrmacht army to pursue in the face of the rout. Moreover, Zhengzhou City was ravaged by Sun Chuanfang, and it was the time when the National Defense Army took over and swore an oath of kindness, so Yan Xishan naturally would not let go of this good opportunity to win the hearts of the people.

Yan Xishan's troops did not stay in Zhengzhou for long. After cleaning up the battlefield and pacifying the people, Yan Xishan led the army eastward.

As a field army general, it is not appropriate for him to meddle too much in local affairs now. The Beijing government has a well-established military and political system. The field army did not have the power to meddle in local affairs. Although Yan Xishan is talented, he doesn't dare to move casually when he is not authorized. In the final analysis, he, Yan Xishan, is still a general who has surrendered to the Wehrmacht. It is not easy to be trusted to be in charge, and it may make people suspicious if they interfere too much. It is precisely because of the deep understanding of the way to protect one's self that Yan Xishan can create great achievements in Shanxi. ...Shanghai. In a nice little apartment.

Cai Yi, who was dressed in home clothes, politely let a young man in casual clothes into the house.

Cai Yi's wife, Pan Huiying, naturally moved to the bedroom after serving tea. Cai's wife is very virtuous and very supportive of her husband's behavior. It is the real virtuous helper of General Cai Yi.

"You're from the north, aren't you?" Sitting down at the table, General Cai said with a smile.

"General, this is given to you by my young master. Please take a look! The young man respectfully handed over a letter.

Cai Ye opened it, and his brows couldn't help frowning. Then the whole person fell into deep thought. The young man did not dare to urge, but his constantly shaking body showed his nervousness.

"Go ahead, I know about it!" Cai Yi raised his head and said. A pair of eyes seem to be able to perceive the world.

The young man breathed a sigh of relief, he had already got the answer from Cai Yi's expression, and then he got up and respectfully saluted Cai Yi, and then left.

Seeing off the guests, Mrs. Pan came out of the bedroom.

"Husband, are you leaving again?"

"Yes, you pack up, and tomorrow we will leave for the southwest." Cai Yi nodded and said.

"Another war?" Mrs. Pan asked worriedly.

"Well, maybe this is the last stop in the country. Madame, I have pinned the hope of China on the sworn brother of the north. Hope he doesn't let me down. Cai Yi smiled and said.

"I'll clean it up right away!" Mrs. Pan is not a person who drags mud and water, she knows that her husband is a person who does great things. However, she was still very curious about the young marshal Feng in the north in her husband's mouth. To be able to make someone like Cai Yi surrender, Young Marshal Feng himself is definitely very self-conscious. In the entire Republic of China, there are only a few people who really value Cai Ye. And Feng Shaoshuai is obviously the best among them.

"Madam, I'm sorry for you. After all these years of running around with me, I think after this war, we can really settle down. Cai Ye said apologetically. Over the years, his wife has followed her, but she has suffered a lot.

"Husband, don't say that, you are a person who does great things, and I feel very happy to be able to help you." Mrs. Pan said with a smile.
