Before he started, Xiao Yongyan had already sent a few prisoners into the city, hoping that Li Liejun could evacuate the people in the city so that they would not be affected by the war.

According to the information Xiao Yongyan got from the Special Affairs Bureau, he was not worried that Li Liejun would do the kind of thing that tied up the people in the city, so that Xiao Yongyan did not dare to let go of his hands and feet when attacking the city, because Li Liejun was not such a person in terms of information.

It is true that although Ouyang Wu once proposed to block the common people in the city and prevent them from leaving the city, so as not to use artillery to bombard the army for several hours again, Li Liejun still rejected his proposal after the most reluctant.

After all, no one dares to guarantee that Xiao Yongyan will really not dare to use artillery when he arrives, if he uses it later, then the people in the city will be killed and injured very badly.

So after receiving Xiao Yongyan's proposal, Li Liejun quickly agreed, and hoped that Xiao Yongyan could give him a day to evacuate all the people in the city.

Xiao Yongyan did not refuse this, because it is indeed not an easy task to evacuate the people.

However, in the process of communication, Xiao Yongyan also said that there is only one day, and no matter what the result is at noon the next day, he will launch an offensive against Nanchang...

————————————————————

Since the news of the fall of Jiujiang reached Nanchang, a considerable number of Nanchang people have fled from the city, and now Li Liejun has been evacuated again, and the already small number of people in the city has suddenly lost a large part.

Naturally, there are always people in this world who are inseparable from their homeland and do not want to leave no matter what. So after a day, there were still almost a few thousand people in the city who did not leave.

However, for these people, neither Xiao Yongyan nor Li Liejun can take care of them.

On the other hand. In the process of evacuating the people, there were also about two or three hundred soldiers of the Jiangxi army who mixed in with the people and took the opportunity to mix out together, which Li Liejun did not expect...

There's no way, after all, there are very few people who are willing to stay knowing that they are dead, and most of the people who are left are the kind of people who can't leave.

Outside the city of Nanchang. Xiao Yongyan looked at the watch on his wrist.

"It's 3 minutes left..."

Standing behind him, the other officers of the Third Division were also quietly waiting for this order.

Three minutes later, the minute hand on Xiao Yongyan's watch was pointing at 12 o'clock.

"Let's do it...", sighed. Xiao Yongyan said.

With the order issued, the 72 artillery pieces that had already entered the artillery position aimed their guns at Nanchang City. After a headache-wrenching roar, several walls of Nanchang City were blown down by artillery fire...

At this time, it was not only Anqing who was paying attention to the war in Nanchang, but also Beiyang or several other provinces. After all, Nanchang is the capital city of Jiangxi. And judging from the current attitude of the Second Division of the Jiangxi Army. Their attitude of abandoning Li Liejun is also obvious, which means that if Li Liejun cannot hold Nanchang, then with the fall of Nanchang, the war in Jiangxi will also end completely.

Of course, the Kuomintang's rule in Jiangxi would also come to an end.

This was absolutely unacceptable to the Kuomintang, but not to the other warlords.

It is not surprising that from Li Yuanhong's massacre of revolutionaries in Hubei, we can see what the attitude of those local powerful parties is towards the Kuomintang. After all, there is always a group of people under his hands who have two hearts with him. And people who don't want to overthrow themselves all the time, no matter who they are, will feel uncomfortable.

Not to mention in many provinces. Those governors have been completely hollowed out by the revolutionary party into puppets, just like Sun Daoren.

The experience of this benevolent brother is similar to that of Li Yuanhong, but it is a pity that his methods are not as experienced as Li Yuanhong, and his end is not as good as Li Yuanhong.

Li Yuanhong is also a vice president no matter what, and when Yuan Shikai dies, he will be transferred to the president. And he is also the only person in China, and the only person in Chinese history who has served two terms as a president and three as vice presidents.

As for Sun Daoren, the benevolent brother, after losing his backer, he was hired as a senior adviser to the Fujian Provincial Government and lived in Gulangyu. At the invitation of his daughter and son-in-law, he lived in Xiamen for the elderly, and died of illness in Xiamen in 1923.

In the city of Nanchang, a group of soldiers of the Jiangxi army hid in the fortifications that had just been repaired not long ago, enduring the continuous falling shells outside.

And in this group of soldiers, there are also a few soldiers who hold guns in their arms, and keep praying with their hands folded, hoping that no shells will fall on their heads.

I don't know if their prayers played a role, although the shelling outside was very dense, but no shells fell on them, which also made the few guys who were praying even more energetic.

It's just that unlike them, the other Gan troops are obviously not so lucky.

Although there was no 210mm caliber heavy artillery this time, the 105mm caliber light howitzer was not small, not to mention that there were 54 75mm caliber mountain guns and field guns there.

The dense artillery caused a lot of casualties to the Jiangxi army, if it weren't for the fact that Li Liejun had built a lot of fortifications in the city before, so that the casualties of the defenders in the city were controlled to a certain extent, I am afraid that the casualties would have been much more.

But even so, the psychological pressure of such a dense artillery fire on the defenders was absolute.

And it seems that the feelings of the defenders were not taken into account at all, outside the city, the artillerymen of the artillery regiment were constantly reloading ammunition and then firing ...

Unlike the artillery of other warlords, the artillery of the National Socialist Army was undoubtedly the luckiest. Because under the hands of other warlords, although these artillerymen are like baby bumps, they are taught to save ammunition first and foremost, not to waste it wantonly.

And what about the National Socialist Army? They were taught that as long as they could hit the shells accurately, it didn't matter how much they hit...

This is also a huge gap in financial resources between the two.

By the way, from the beginning to the present. The 75mm guns of the Gan army have never fired, because at this point, there is no room for them to fire.

"Buddha bless. Buddha bless..."

In one of the fortifications in the city, the soldiers were still praying with their hands folded for the blessing of the gods. Then endure the constant sound of explosions, air waves, and some debris that was kicked up by the air waves.

I don't know how long it took to say that the sound of the artillery outside finally stopped, and the moment the cannon stopped, the defenders in the city felt like they were in a different world.

When they looked up, they noticed for the first time that the sky was so blue. Life is so beautiful, so beautiful that it makes them feel the urge to become deserters...

It's just that before they could finish lamenting the beauty of life, they heard the screams of the surviving officers nearby. "It all cheers me up. Pick up the guns, and those bitches outside the city will come in..."

He was right, the National Socialist Army did come in.

Before the end of the shelling, to be exact. The National Socialist Army had already begun to charge. It was only in the process of charging that the Chinese Socialist Army did not make any shouts. Just silently rushed towards Nanchang, even if the dense footsteps made the ground shake, because Nanchang was still under artillery at that time, the defenders in the city did not feel anything.

And it was precisely because the charging Nationalist Army had arrived outside the city that the shelling outside would stop, which also made the defenders in the city feel that they couldn't react.

"Rush!"

Just one word, the platoon commander of the team leader said to his subordinates, and after speaking, he had already taken out a grenade from his waist. Then he threw himself at a fortification in the distance.

Behind the fortifications, several soldiers of the Gan army were probing their brains in the back.

Since the soldiers behind this fortification were all men of the Ninth Regiment. I haven't experienced the battle of Jiujiang, so I don't know what the grenade does. So when the grenade was thrown into the fortifications, they were even a little stunned—————— until the hand exploded...

The explosion of the grenade caused the defenders inside the fortifications to be killed or wounded, and the National Social Army took advantage of this opportunity to rush in again.

Although there were some Gan defenders blocking them along the way, most of them were killed.

After running a distance of about three to five hundred meters, the leading platoon leader stopped behind a corner and pulled out a map from his arms. "Deputy platoon commander, do you want to see if we are going the wrong way?"

Taking the map from the platoon commander's hand, he looked at it very carefully, although there were gunshots everywhere around him, and then looked up at the platoon leader. "Probably not, around the opposite corner, walking two or three miles should be our goal."

Hearing the deputy platoon commander say this, the platoon commander nodded. "Two or three miles...... Everyone pay attention to me, and watch out for the Gan troops who are lying in ambush...", he said as he poked his head out of the corner of the wall and looked outside, and only spoke after making sure that there was no danger outside. "Keep following me." As he spoke, he took the lead and rushed towards the original position.

Behind him, the deputy platoon commander saw his commander taking the lead, first sighed, and then continued to rush forward with his subordinates.

————————————————————

For Xiao Yongyan, after experiencing the battles in Jiujiang and Hukou, it is no longer possible to take Nanchang. Because of the strength of the National Social Army, no matter how bad the commander is, it is very easy to take Nanchang, after all, the difference in strength between the two sides is too great.

It is also because of this relationship that Xiao Yongyan set a goal for himself to capture Li Liejun alive.

Shells don't have long eyes, so in order to ensure safety, the branch of the Special Affairs Bureau in Nanchang had been withdrawn from it before Xiao Yongyan attacked the city. After all, if you continue to stay inside, no one can guarantee that any shells will land on your head.

is also because of this relationship, so even Xiao Yongyan is not clear where Li Liejun is now, which is also the most troublesome thing for Xiao Yongyan at present.

Counting the ordinary people who did not leave the city, there were almost seven or eight thousand people in Nanchang at this time, and Nanchang was the provincial capital of Jiangxi, so it was not easy to find Li Liejun from such a large city.

Naturally, the Special Affairs Bureau has been active in Jiangxi for so long, and it is impossible that there are no clues. Therefore, before Xiao Yongyan launched the total, he was originally the head of the Special Affairs Bureau of the Nanchang Branch, and he had already made more than ten maps with his subordinates.

Each map represents a place where Li Liejun might be hiding, which is the location of the headquarters.

Although the people of the Secret Service can determine the location of only four or five. However, considering some possible accidents, they still managed to make more than a dozen positions, which can also ensure that nothing is lost.

As for whether the troops sent by Xiao Yongyan can complete the task. This is not a problem of the Special Affairs Bureau.

People in the military and the government do not like the Secret Service, and this Special Service itself knows it. Therefore, although on the surface the Special Affairs Bureau and these departments maintain a harmonious atmosphere, it is conceivable how it actually is.

After all, people have tempers, and others are always sneering behind their backs, if the Special Affairs Bureau can still greet each other with a smile, then they are too rebellious...

So as a matter of course. After making sure that there would be no problems at work, the Secret Service was also happy to see the jokes of several other departments. And this is a problem that Yan Shao or others can't solve.

Can Yan Shao guarantee that others will not have no ill feelings towards an organization like a brocade guard? No...

Can Yan Shao guarantee that an organization like a brocade guard will not react to the bad feelings of others? Nor can ...

Herein lies the problem. And that's the crux of the matter.

As for the disbandment of the Secret Service or a similar spy organization? If a country does not have such an organization, then no matter how strong its army is, it is not safe, and there have been many examples of this in later generations...

What Yan Shao can do. Just don't let them become brocade guards. Or the East and West factories and the same organization as the KGB, that's all ...

————————————————————

In order to be able to capture Li Liejun alive, Xiao Yongyan sent more than ten platoons of troops this time to ensure that Li Liejun could definitely be captured.

However, Li Liejun does not know how to doppelganger, which means that he will only appear in one place, which also makes there only one winner in the more than ten platoons of troops.

In addition, it was also unsafe in Nanchang City at this time, not to mention the thousands of Gan troops who were ambushed for the time being. They also have to find a way to deal with their own people.

In a city full of enemies, any one place can jump out of the enemy. In this case, it is inevitable that the soldiers will not be nervous. And accidental cannibalism has become a very likely result.

The soldiers of the previous platoon were lucky, although they met many people from the Gan army along the way, but those Gan troops were not their opponents at all. As for the friendly forces? Although one or two were encountered, fortunately neither side opened fire, which also avoided cannibalism...

"Which unit are you from..."The uniforms of the National Social Army are still very recognizable, so Nian Yao finally stopped his subordinates in time and avoided a tragedy of cannibalism.

After confirming his identity, he also took the initiative to walk over and asked the other party for a cigarette by the way.

It went well, he got what he wanted, took out a box of matches from his pocket, Nian Yao lit the cigarette, then closed his eyes and took a deep breath with great enjoyment. After a while, he reluctantly spat out the white smoke from his mouth and nose.

Perhaps because the war is too cruel, many soldiers in the army are very fond of smoking, alcohol and women, and use these things to numb their nerves. Naturally, there are also some soldiers who prefer to use drugs such as opium, but these things are strictly forbidden in the National Security Army, so no matter how big the military officer is, he can only drink alcohol, smoke, or go to a brothel to relax, and Nian Yao is an old smoking gun...

In the process of rushing to the city, he was very unlucky and encountered many obstacles from the Gan army.

Perhaps because they had built enough fortifications, the Jiangxi army did not suffer too many casualties in Nanchang as in Jiujiang, which also caused them a lot of trouble to the Nationalist army that rushed into the city, and Nian Yao also lost a pack of cigarettes he was carrying in one of the blockades.

"We're from the third regiment...", the platoon commander spoke.

"So..."Glancing at them, Nian Yao was a little strange. What are the special tasks? "He saw it just now, these people kept going deeper and deeper as if they were looking in some direction, and the other troops looked very strange.

"This ...... It's classified..."

"Then forget it." Nian Yao waved his hand, he knew that the more Lu Dao was, the more dangerous it was, so he didn't inquire anymore when he heard that it was a secret. "Good luck then." After speaking, he said to the brothers behind him. "Let's move on after resting, according to the order, we must arrive in Area A by 3 o'clock..."

"Yes!"

On the other hand, seeing Nian Yao say it so well, the platoon commander also breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, they are all from the same army, and he doesn't want to have a stiff fight with the other party, not to mention that he almost shot someone through just now.

After Nian Yao's troops left, the platoon commander also said to his subordinates. "Let's go too, and capture Li Liejun's guy alive..."

"Yes!!"

At this time, Li Liejun, who was commanding the operation in the command headquarters, did not know what to do, and more than a dozen troops seemed to be swimming in Nanchang City, wanting to capture him alive as a merit.

Merely...

There will always be a lot of accidents in this world...

Theoretically speaking, capturing Li Liejun alive should have been the task of the more than ten platoons, but after being shelled for a long time, the whole of Nanchang had already been unrecognizable, which also made many teams who came to Nanchang for the first time still lost their way although they had maps in their hands.

Naturally, the lost troops were not only those who were ordered to capture Li Liejun alive, but also Nian Yao, who had just met them...

After taking the wrong road at an intersection, Nian Yao didn't know that he had walked out of the road, but continued to move forward according to the road in front of him.

At this time, he obviously couldn't imagine what would be waiting for him in front of him. (To be continued......)
