    > Major General Chen Han, commander of the Guangdong Provincial Garrison Command, mobilized troops from all over the garrison area to reinforce Yang. It seems that five brigades are a lot, but these are all local garrison troops. The gap with the main field brigade of the ** Division is  Not only in terms of weapons and equipment, but also in terms of military strength, the full strength of the main field brigade of the ** Division is 15,000 to 17,000 people per brigade.  .  .

    The brigades under the Guangdong Garrison Command only have a full strength of more than 6,000 people. Moreover, most of the soldiers come from Han Mou's old Guangdong Army. They were expanded and transformed based on the old foundation of Chen Han's army.  Yes, if a war breaks out, the ones who really stand out are the troops of the former Army Division, only about five regiments.

    Tang Qiuli was also worried about this. The total number of troops defending Guiyang was only 37,000 in six brigades. Those who could really fight did not exceed 8,000. The Central Army troops they faced were seven.  The division had nearly 100,000 troops, so Tang Qiuli suggested to Chen Han that if necessary, he could abandon Guiyang to avoid heavy losses to his troops.

    Chen Han's thoughts were similar to those of Li Honggang, the commander of the 29th Corps. Guiyang was his defense area. Xu Liejun took advantage of Chiang Kai-shek's strength to suddenly launch an attack. He clearly did not take himself seriously. Chen Han felt suppressed in his heart.  He was so angry that he wanted to fight head-on with the Central Army in Guiyang and build the prestige and reputation of the Guangdong Garrison Force.

    In the future, guarding this side will save a lot of energy. Chen Han also has another idea. He is a brigade commander who came down from the main force and took over Yu Hanmou's old army. He always feels uncomfortable. These soldiers are not related to  His original army was too far behind. He wanted to use this battle to become the main force, or at least a second-line force. Ma Chaoyang, Jiang Yanming and other buddies became commanders of corps commanding hundreds of thousands of troops.  Officer, drive abroad to fight against the little devils.

    Chen Han felt itchy in his heart. He was not a fool. The troops transferred back from Burma by the division commander could arrive within three days. As long as they stayed in Guiyang for three days, Xu Liejun, the bastard, looked at how he could make trouble. Furthermore,  Guiyang has become one of the logistics bases of the Myanmar battlefield. Many arsenals and warehouses of the ** Division Logistics Department are located in Guiyang.

    If we withdraw without fighting and let Xu Liejun's gang of bandits-like soldiers come in, the losses will be incalculable. If nothing else, just the complaints from the old man Zhang Quan, the Minister of Logistics, will be enough for him to suffer for several years.  The citizens of Guiyang have been harmed. How do they view the ** division troops and themselves?  Therefore, Guiyang is a must-defend situation.

    Chief of Staff Chang Feng also expressed concerns about sticking to Guiyang. He once made suggestions to division commander Tang Qiuli: "Division commander, in order to buy enough time for the troops to reinforce Guiyang, should we send an order to the Military Commission of the Chongqing National Government?"  A clear message asking them to stop Xu Liejun¡¯s destructive behavior immediately, even if it only takes a day or two!¡±

    Tang Qiuli sneered, shook his head and said: "It's useless. If he and Jiang are not behind us, how much courage and capital does Xu Liejun have to stab us in the back? When the time comes, the government will give us an ambiguous answer."  If I resign, I can get rid of it. I have thought about it. This is a local dispute. It is not appropriate for the national government to intervene, but it can send personnel to conduct on-site investigation and stop Xu's behavior. It will be him for two days and it will be him for half a year.

    Chang Feng said silently, admitting that he did not see Chairman Chiang as thoroughly as the division commander. He just didn't understand what exactly Chairman Chiang wanted to do at this time to attack the rear base of the *** division?  Eliminate the Japanese army's power in the country?  That is wishful thinking!  Help Ito secretly?  Chang Feng, like Tang Qiuli, was also frightened by his own thoughts.

    Chen Han's troops marched from the south of Guiyang into downtown Guiyang two days later. Once they entered Guiyang, Chen Han's brows did not relax. To be honest, Guiyang could not be called a solidly fortified city. The defense of the entire city  The system is almost blank, and this is not something that can be blamed on Colonel Huang Zhixiang, commander of the 1st Guiyang Guard Brigade.

    ??The targets of the ** division troops are the Japanese. Now, except for the northeastern part of the country, not even a ghost of a Japanese soldier can be seen. We have made great efforts to build a city defense system. What to guard against?  Central Army?  They are all in the military sequence, far from being die-hard friendly forces, at least not enemies. Therefore, the construction of Guiyang's city defense fortifications did not attract enough attention.

    Knowing that this guy Xu Liejun would do something like this, Chen Han did not blame Huang Zhixiang. He was the commander of the garrison. He had the biggest responsibility. He also knew that the equipment of his army was at a disadvantage compared to that of the Central Army.  The troops are small and placed in the wild. As long as the central army attacks ruthlessly, more than half of them can be defeated in less than a day.

    Therefore, Chen Han retracted his troops into the urban area, deployed two lines of defense, built barricades, relied on the streets in the city, and fought street battles to delay the Central Army's attack step by step. For three days, he also sent troops to  The citizens in the city evacuated to the south. After a day and night of busy work, Guiyang's city defense system finally took shape.

    Central Military Forces CommandOfficial Liao Huaizheng learned that the reinforcements from the Guangzhou Garrison Area had moved into Guiyang, with a strength of more than 30,000. He couldn't help but frowned and was secretly annoyed, "Then Chen Han really doesn't know what's good, so he's going to give it a try.  I've given you an opening to retreat south, why are you still putting on a desperate posture?"

    "With more than 30,000 soldiers, can you be the best opponent of 100,000 American equipment? You are overestimating your capabilities!" Liao Huaizheng thought indifferently that he knew the details of the Guangdong Garrison Area troops, and they all belonged to Yu Hanmou.  After all, the combat effectiveness of the Cantonese army is not worth mentioning. The only thing he is worried about is the return of the main force of the *** division in Myanmar.

    In two days, there was no sign that the main force of the ** division on the front line of Libao, Myanmar, would return to support Guiyang. Liao Huaizheng was relieved. Since he has done his utmost to be benevolent and gave you Chen Han a way out, if you don't leave, then  Don't blame me, Mr. Liao, for taking action. Besides, Minister Chen repeatedly called and urged, "To prevent long nights and long dreams, solve the Guiyang problem as soon as possible."

    On August 28, the Central Army, which surrounded Guiyang on three sides, began to mobilize frequently. The opening for retreat to the south was finally blocked. Guiyang was surrounded on all sides and became a de facto isolated city. By about six o'clock that night,  The Central Army has completed its attack deployment and is only waiting for the early morning of the 29th to launch a general attack on Guiyang.

    At the same time, the five brigades led by Zhang Hansheng, chief of staff of the Niangziguan Garrison Corps of the *** Division, have also rushed to Leye in northern Guangxi. According to the current marching speed, they can reach the foot of Guiyang City at noon on August 29th.  , that is to say, it was more than six hours after the Central Army launched the attack that the main force of this fast and windy *** division could arrive.

    Chen Cheng was right. He was deeply afraid of the rapid maneuverability of the ** division troops. It took Zhang Hansheng's troops less than two days from gathering in the eastern part of the Indochina Peninsula to returning to the country.

    Zhang Hansheng jumped off the armored command vehicle and looked at the tanks, artillery carts and military vehicles full of soldiers rumbling past. His brows did not relax, and he said to the communications staff: "Call the division commander, division commander, I will return to Guiyang to support you."  The troops have arrived in Leye, northern Guizhou, and are continuing to advance towards Guiyang. They are expected to arrive in Guiyang around 11 noon tomorrow."

    He didn't know the specific time when the Central Army launched the attack, but from the enemy situation report from the division commander, he felt the atmosphere of an imminent war. He knew better that the strength of Chen Han's troops had arrived in Guiyang one day earlier, which would have prevented the Guangdong garrison from getting more troops.  Therefore, he is not very satisfied with the current marching speed of the troops.

    The report to the division pointed out that at 11 noon on August 29, his own plan should be at least four hours ahead of schedule. Zhang Hansheng said to the combat staff without looking back: "Can the marching speed of the troops be determined?  Improve it further? Get four hours of time?¡±

    The combat staff officer looked troubled and said: "Chief of Staff, this is already the limit. The troops marched continuously for forty-eight hours, with almost no delay except eating. Just last night, two vehicles overturned into the ditch. The soldiers  There are dozens of casualties, we cannot ignore the specific situation," Zhang Hansheng sighed, stamped his feet bitterly, and got into the command vehicle.

    What is unbelievable is that 70,000 to 80,000 troops from the five brigades of the ** Division marched for nearly a thousand kilometers. There were probably thousands of military vehicles, artillery vehicles, and tanks across the national border. As for the Central Army, there was no  Neither Dai Li's Military Command Bureau nor Xu Xiufeng's Central Command Bureau had any information.

    After suffering a big loss in Guiyang, Chen Cheng made a fierce complaint in front of Chairman Chiang. The old man was furious and summoned Dai Li and Ye Xiufeng to the official residence of Chairman Huangshan to beat them up!  "

    Ye Xiufeng had no expression on his face and did not feel aggrieved. Is the current Central President the same as before?  Being pressed to the point of death by Dai Li, he was lucky enough not to be delisted. Even the salary of the intelligence officer was in arrears from time to time. How could he still be able to carry out intelligence business? As the director, what he had to do every day was to go to various places.  Go to the Yamen to beg for food.

    The actual boss, Chen Guofu, lives in seclusion. The Zhongtong has lost its glory and has become a thing of yesterday. It is normal to be scolded. Seeing Chairman Chiang¡¯s anger, it is mainly directed at Dai Li. Although they were scolded together, Xu Xiufeng¡¯s heart  , I felt an inexplicable pleasure. Dai Yunong was in the limelight, the spring breeze was triumphant, the military command bureau was at its peak, and the old man was favored, asking for money, giving money, and asking for money.

    It¡¯s a treasure like an eyeball, and it¡¯s just holding it in the palm of your hand. This time, it¡¯s not like you¡¯re blind!  Dai Li saw the gloating in Ye Xiufeng's eyes, but he had his own reasons for it, and he couldn't tell anyone yet.
