Xue Yue became angry as soon as he heard this and said, "Zhang Lingfu, which side are you from?"

After pausing, Xue Yue continued, "Don't forget that your current identity is the director of the General Staff Department of the Ninth War Zone. Don't sit in a crooked butt!"

Zhang Lingfu stopped saying anything.

Not long after, the two of them came to the command post of Dragon King Temple.

However, Zhong Yi was not seen in the command post.

After asking, I found out that Zhong Yi went to Houhu in the eastern suburbs.

Then the two boarded Xue Yue's jeep and headed straight for Houhu in the eastern suburbs of Hankou.

A quarter of an hour later, the jeep drove to Houhu. Xue Yue and Zhang Lingfu looked out through the car window, and the cemetery presented to them was a continuous cemetery!

But I saw that the wilderness of Houhu was covered with rows of long-shaped earth pits.

Xue Yue and Zhang Lingfu estimated that there were at least 50,000 dirt pits in their field of vision!

On the edge of each long pit, there is a body wrapped in a white shroud, but it can be seen from the shriveled shape that many of the bodies have been highly decayed.

The air was filled with an extremely rich corpse stinking!

However, the solemn atmosphere at the scene made the two completely ignore the stench of corpses in the air.

Zhang Lingfu also noticed that in the lower right corner of the cemetery used to bury the fallen soldiers, there was a super big pit, and there were many corpses piled up next to the pit!

This is the corpse of the Japanese!

But there is no shroud!

The corpses of the Japanese were stacked layer by layer, stacked like hills!

When Xue Yue and Zhang Lingfu saw this scene, they couldn't help but look stern!

Just this scene in front of you is enough to prove the tragic extent of the war in Wuhan!

Xue Yue sighed and said, "I originally thought that even if the war on Wuhan was more violent than the border defense of Hunan and Jiangxi, it would be limited, but now it seems that it is wrong!"

"Yes!" Zhang Lingfu said, "The battle to defend the border between Hunan and Jiangxi is also very fierce, but the battlefield is scattered in the vast mountainous areas of the two counties, so the personnel and firepower are relatively scattered. However, the battle to defend the border between Wuhan is concentrated in the narrow urban area, and the personnel and firepower are even more concentrated! In terms of the degree of tragic, it must be better than the battle to defend the border between Hunan and Jiangxi!"

As the two of them spoke, footsteps came.

When I looked back quickly, I saw a large group of officers walking over quickly.

The one who walked in the front was a general, obviously Feng Yuxiang, the commander-in-chief of Wuhan garrison.

Following Feng Yuxiang were Zhong Yi, Sun Liren, Zhu Liangcheng and a group of senior generals.

After a round of greetings, Zhang Lingfu took the initiative to chat with Feng Yuxiang, and Xue Yue naturally came to Zhong Yi!

Xue Yue pointed to the rows of mud burial pits in the wilderness and said in a deep voice: "Zi Ren, are all soldiers who died in the Battle of Wuhan?"

"It's just a part of it." Zhong Yi said with a dim expression. "There are many soldiers who can't even get a complete finger bone. If they have names, they will try to establish a tomb for them. Some of them have not even left their names, so they can only get a joint tomb for them."

Xue Yue said: "That's all."

Immediately afterwards, Xue Yue went straight to the point.

"Zi Ren, I am a straight-minded person and never beat around the bush." ​​Xue Yue said, "So, I have something to say later!"

Zhong Yi said: "Commander-in-Chief Xue, please tell me."

Xue Yue said: "I want to borrow a cannon from you!"

"No problem!" Zhong Yi nodded, "What caliber do you want, how many doors?"

"Uh..." Zhong Yi's answer caught Xue Yue off guard. He came to borrow a cannon. Shouldn't Zhong Yi's first reaction be to refuse or repeatedly shirk responsibility?

How could you respond so hard?

This is completely different from the head of the Chinese army in Xue Yue’s impression!

Don’t Zhong Yi know that this kind of loan will basically not be returned after borrowing it!

Seeing Xue Yue stunned, Zhong Yi asked back, "Commander-General Xue, what's wrong with you?"

"Uh, nothing." Xue Yueru woke up in her dream and continued, "What kind of caliber do you have? How many doors do you have?"

Zhong Yi then turned his fingers to calculate: "24 m1918 155mm caliber field howitzers, but they were seriously damaged and still needed to be repaired; 178 Japanese 150mm caliber field howitzers were damaged more severely and had basically no repair value; 108 Japanese 75mm caliber field howitzers and 36 75mm caliber mountain cannons, but these cannons were also seriously damaged and could not be repaired."

Xue Yue's face immediately turned dark. It seemed that he had completely misunderstood Zhong Yi!

After that, Zhong Yi is not easy to talk, but just pretends to be generous!

Xue Yue said with a dark face: "Isn't there a complete cannon?"

"Yes, but there are only 33!" Zhong Yi said, "There are 33 Japanese 105mm caliber field howitzers are intact, but without shells, it's useless."

"You don't have to worry about shells." Xue Yue was overjoyed when he heard this and quickly said, "It's good to have cannons, it's good to have cannons!"

Xue Yue was really not worried about the 105mm caliber shell. If it was a 150mm caliber or 155mm caliber shell, it would be troublesome, but the 105mm caliber shell and 75mm caliber shell were not a problem for him. The arsenal moved to Chongqing could not make cannons, so the shells could still be made.

"The cannon is hidden in the underground fortifications of Guishan Fortress." Zhong Yi said, "Just turn around and let Zhong Lin go and pull it!"

Xue Yue kept listening with his ears on his back, but when he heard this, he suddenly disappeared, and asked in surprise: "Is it over?"

"It's over." Zhong Yi was also surprised, "Is there any problem with Commander-in-Chief Xue? You might as well want to borrow artillery soldiers, right?"

Zhong Yi didn't mind lending the cannons to Xue Yue, even though he knew there was a loan or not, he didn't mind. Anyway, it would be useless to keep these cannons in his hands for the time being. Xue Yue couldn't do without cannons when he attacked Xiaogan!

But I was reluctant to let Zhong Yi lend all the artillery!

Because there are not a few artillery soldiers left in the 367th Brigade now!

There are only a few fire seeds left, so you can't borrow them easily!

Fortunately, Xue Yue didn't have this intention, and said immediately: "No, no artillery."

After pausing, Xue Yue asked in a low voice: "Zi Ren, do you have no exchange conditions?"

It turned out that Xue Yue was waiting for Zhong Yi to propose conditions with him, but Zhong Yi didn't mention it, which surprised him.

"Exchange?" Zhong Yi smiled, "Commander-in-Chief Xue is talking about borrowing, what exchange is offered?"

Zhong Yi was so open and honest that Xue Yue felt a little embarrassed and said seriously: "Okay, this batch of cannons was borrowed by me by Xue Yue. After the battle of Xiaogan, I will definitely return it as much as possible. If it is damaged, I will definitely find a way to compensate you with other equipment!"

Zhong Yi smiled and said nothing.

Xue Yue asked in a low voice: "By the way, Zi Ren, do you have any tanks in your Wuhan garrison?"
Chapter completed!
