Chapter 373 The Battle of Xuzhou Is About to Kick Off
It only took more than two hours to get to Chizhou. I entered a small tavern and stopped by the bar while eating and drinking. Things became clear. An encounter a few days ago is still the focus of people's discussion. There is indeed no large-scale encounter here. There is no sense of crisis that the Japanese army is approaching the city, and it is certain that the Japanese army will not attack here in a short time.
After eating and drinking, I left the tavern, and I was going to go to Wuhu to see the situation. In principle, the current record is a little different from the historical records. They will go directly westward and launch a retaliatory attack. If the devil really dares to go deep westward alone, it can help him cut off his retreat and completely strangle the hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops who attacked Nanjing City.
All the way to the east, there are many more checkpoint sentry stations on the road. Of course, these sentry stations are unlikely to cause any trouble to Li Yunfei. To be honest, the sentry stations cannot prevent small-scale devils from sneaking in, but they can It is found that large-scale troop movements, especially troops with heavy weapons, cannot pass through these sentinels quietly anyway.
Li Yunfei only walked on the road occasionally, and most of the time he ran all the way from the wilderness. The speed was a bit shocking when people saw it. Maybe he couldn't see the figure clearly at all. Li Yunfei himself didn't calculate how fast it was. Anyway, the wind pressure felt was great.
Occasionally seeing a village will take the initiative to slow down, but it is also a further insight into the cruelty of war. This is already close to the front line, so the scorched-earth policy implemented by the national army, everything that cannot be taken away will be destroyed. This is just the beginning of the scorched-earth policy. Clue. In the next one or two years, under a series of scorched-earth resistance policies, the losses caused to Huaguo cannot be measured by value at all. Artillery bombardment, aircraft bombing, and the personnel of the party are still being destroyed. Cities that have been settled for thousands of years have been destroyed in the flames of war everywhere.
It coincides with the troubled times when the common people are displaced again. If the rescue is not properly arranged, the result can only be that a large number of old and weak women and children will die, and there will be an extra group of bandits and robbers. A war that cannot defend against the enemy in the country is doomed to be a tragedy, no matter whether you win or lose, it is a tragedy. What is happening in China now is many times more terrifying than the chaos in the Middle East in later generations.
...
Li Yunfei ran all the way from Chizhou to Wuhu for more than 100 kilometers. Li Yunfei also wanted to test how far he could keep running, but he didn't test it at all, because he still didn't feel anything when he ran all the way to Wuhu. I was also a little sleepy, so for the sake of safety, I deliberately found a safe place to rest for a while, but this time I slept for two days and two nights until I woke up hungry.
I hurried into the city to find a small restaurant and had a big meal. By the way, I heard some news. To be honest, the atmosphere in the city was quite tense. Many people began to move their families. In the city, there is a constant panic.
When I was watching TV and movies before, I couldn't figure it out. Family property is not as important as life. If you know that there is going to be a war, shouldn't you run for your life early?
But in the small restaurant, after chatting with the shopkeeper, I realized why these people took the risk and chose to stay. In their view, the ending of fleeing with something may be even worse. There is a high possibility that they will die in a foreign land, or starve to death, or freeze to death, or be robbed and killed. safer.
If the Japanese army came, he would choose to be an obedient citizen. If there was really no way out, he would burn down the house and die with him. If he couldn’t keep his ancestor’s family business, he would be ashamed to see his ancestor after death...
Li Yunfei couldn't find any reason to refute his point of view. Those who fled were really miserable. Some time ago, he took those women to run away. To be honest, if he didn't have some skills, God knows what would happen to those women. They were snatched by bandits. Being a toy is a good result.
...
After wandering around Wuhu for a long time, I finally got a rough idea of the situation. The defenders were much smaller than expected, with a total of more than 10,000 people. The rest of the personnel had already crossed the river north to go to Hefei or Bengbu, because the devils who captured Nanjing City only left more than 20,000 troops in Nanjing City, while the other personnel started to cross the river north.
Japan was indeed not frightened by the last Nanjing beheading operation, and lost its mind in anger. After their emperor issued an edict, those devils still crossed the Yangtze River directly northward as if they were on a stimulant. The devils from the north also began to gather and go south, preparing to open up the railway from Tianjin to Nanjing, so as to unite the north and south battlefields, and this time Japan has once again increased its troops by more than 300,000...
Although many things have been done, the history is still surprisingly similar. Perhaps the Xuzhou battle that lasted for several months will still happen. I thought that the sudden beheading action would threaten their emperor by the way, which would disrupt the devil's position, but now it seems that there is no chaos at all.
However, this time, the forced increase of more than 300,000 troops has received a lot less training, and the supplies are likely to be unable to keep up. It may be possible to greatly reduce the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army, so that the battle damage can be reduced by a lot. It may boost the anti-war morale of the Chinese people.
Also, because of the previous beheading operation, the commander who survived the devil at that time was furious and launched a revenge operation, causing many massacres, and even many Western reporters also suffered, and the matter was exposed. After going out, he was criticized by many countries in the world. Many countries have directly started to send guns and ammunition to Hua Guo, and openly supported Hua Guo to resist Japan. Even the Eighth Route Army has received a batch of guns and ammunition support, and domestic morale has been improved. Great improvement, so the overall situation is still a little bit better.
The battle of Xuzhou should not happen until after the beginning of spring. This can be roughly inferred without reading history books. Li Yunfei would definitely go to help out, maybe nothing else, but it was still possible to cause some confusion in the devil's command.
If you are lucky enough to touch the devil's headquarters and kill a large number of commanders again, the effect will definitely be better. Since you have the same strength as you can open and hang, of course you can't waste it in vain.
...
Li Yunfei carried a big bag of things up the mountain. There were a lot of medicinal materials, and of course there were also a lot of small gifts. He left without saying goodbye, and went back for several days. Of course, he also brought some gifts to appease him.
Of course, the medicinal materials are not for curing diseases, but for preparing the small yellow pills, although in memory, the small yellow pills are the most useless pills, which can only be used by ordinary people to exercise their bodies.
However, in Li Yun's opinion, it is simply a miracle drug against the sky. You only need to take one tablet a day for a hundred days to achieve the primary effect of rebirth. With a basic internal force and persistent practice, beginners can strengthen their health. to the best state of human physique.
If expressed in terms of data, the strength, agility, and stamina are all increased to about 10 points. Those with good talents may exceed 10 points, and those with poor talents may only have eight or nine points. Weak women become strong women.
If this effect is not worth mentioning to a cultivator, it can indeed be described as amazing for normal physical exercise. At the beginning, Li Yunfei strengthened his exercise every day in order to achieve the best physical condition, and persisted for a whole year. can succeed...
It took more than an hour to get back to the mountain. It was already late at night, but I was a little surprised. Everyone was awake, sitting in a hall looking at a small fire in a daze, looking very haggard.
"Hey, are you guys going to talk all night?" Li Yunfei took the initiative to say hello, and then woke up everyone who was in a daze.
When a group of people heard Li Yunfei's voice, they regained their usual expressions almost immediately, and they didn't complain that Li Yunfei didn't say a word when he left, and they didn't say how worried they were. They just pulled Li Yunfei to sit down, tapped his legs, had a massage, and went to prepare meals. He completely treated Li Yunfei like an uncle.
"This gift hasn't been distributed yet, why are you so enthusiastic!" Li Yunfei opened the big bag and prepared to share the gifts.
"Big brother can come back safely, that is the best gift."
"Yeah, big brother must tell us next time you want to go out."
"It's best that brother don't go down the mountain in the future."
