"Most of the outer positions of Fengtian have been evacuated, and only one independent brigade is left to guard the place..."

Pointing to the map, Tao Ping seemed a little hesitant.

"This is what I want to evacuate Fengtian in the future..."

Zheng Yong nodded, although this was a topic he was never willing to face.

"Master, Chuzu Wei is here, waiting for you at your house."

"What?"

Luo Yumeng's secret report surprised Zheng Yong. Why did Wei Hanzhi suddenly come back at this time?

After returning home in a hurry, Wei Hanzhi was indeed waiting for him. When he saw his nephew come back, Wei Hanzhi said straight to the point.

"Fengtian has been fighting for now. Hengyuan, you can consider retreating!"

Zheng Yong was stunned for a moment. Wei Hanzhi's straightforward words did not let him reflect it for a while.

"The large number of island troops are gathering. Once winter passes, they can launch a general attack on Fengtian!" Wei Hanzhi pulled Zheng Yong to the map, pointed in several directions, and said anxiously.

"I have been staying in Changchun during this period and are in charge of collecting intelligence. Now there is reliable intelligence. Due to Mazhanshan's rebellion, Manchuria is about to be established. Mazhanshan has surrendered to the island people, which allows the island people to concentrate all their strength to attack Fengtian.

At present, the island army has assembled two and a half brigades outside Fengtian City, plus a field artillery company and a cavalry corps, which are far stronger than Fengtian and Hengyuan in terms of strength.

Also, a unit of multiple divisions drawn from Helen, the 19th Independent Mixed Brigade of the Island Army, the 4th Brigade of the 8th Division, and a total of more than 30,000 puppet troops, are preparing to reinforce Fengtian, and Fengtian can no longer defend it!"

Zheng Yong's face was never solemn, and the rapid and harsh situation exceeded his imagination.

In order to defeat Fengtian, it seems that the people of the island are also preparing to invest a lot.

With the original troops, the island country attacked itself with 40,000 to 50,000 Japanese and puppet troops, which was really giving itself a lot of face...

"Hengyuan," Wei Hanzhi gently tapped the map: "You have created too many miracles in Fengtian, and everyone sees them. To defend, Fengtian can still defend with the city defense and so many equipment for a while, and can fight against the entire island army with one city power. It will only take a matter of time before the city is broken."

Zheng Yong's face looked a little ugly, and he pursed his lips and said nothing.

"Do you know? The island people launched an attack on Shanghai yesterday. What does this mean? The government must endure it now, otherwise, otherwise..." Wei Hanzhi said with a heavy expression.

"Otherwise it will turn into a comprehensive war between China and Japan, fighting in Fengtian, fighting in Shanghai... But the government is not ready to deal with a comprehensive war!"

The heart seemed to be hit hard by a hammer, a total war?

"Leave some seeds for the 11th Division!" Wei Hanzhi sat down, sighed heavily, and said.

"After all the battles, there is really nothing left. Do you know? From the beginning of the Battle of Fengtian, you no longer represent yourself. You and your 11th Division represent the government's determination to resist.

Now this determination has been shown to everyone, enough, everything is enough. For more than four months, you have fought here for more than four months, and if you continue to fight, not only the 11th Division will be finished, but the entire Fengtian will be finished.

Retreat, retreat to the pass, the commander-in-chief has already arranged a response for you, and you have helped the commander-in-chief earn face and safeguarded the government's face. The commander-in-chief will not treat you badly. In the future, we can make a comeback..."

Don't surrender, don't retreat!

The solemn oath that day is still remembered in Zheng Yong's ears.

Now that I am leaving, what should Fengtian do? How can I and my brothers from the 11th Division face the people of the whole country?

As if seeing his thoughts, Wei Hanzhi sighed.

"The Commander-in-Chief has arranged everything for you long ago."

He took out a newspaper and placed it in front of Zheng Yong. It was a newspaper run by non-government.

It describes Fengtian's tragic experience, with ammunition and food exhaustion, heavy casualties, city defenses were broken by the island army several times, and the 11th Division relied on human life to repel the enemy's attack, and most of the entire division suffered casualties...

This is to tell everyone that the 11th Division fought to the last moment.

But this is not entirely true. Indeed, Fengtian suffered heavy casualties, but he can still hold on.

"The telegram from the commander-in-chief will arrive in the afternoon." Wei Hanzhi stood up.

"He will order you to break through forcibly in the name of the Commander-in-Chief of the National Revolutionary Army and the government. Hengyuan, retreating now is not a humiliation, absolutely not. After you go back, the Commander-in-Chief will give you a stronger 11th Division. Leave your life and then fight with the people of the island!"

As he said that, he patted his nephew's shoulder.

"Please execute the commander-in-chief, now he is your only hope..."

"As for Fengtian, you don't have to worry." Wei Hanzhi recovered a little and relaxed.

"You have to thank your doctor named Schneider. His articles have caused a great sensation internationally, especially in Germany. Because of Dr. Schneider, they have great sympathy for Fengtian. Britain, France, the United States and other countries have also put some pressure on the island countries. A delegation of journalists and doctors is preparing to rush to Fengtian."

Zheng Yong took a deep breath: "So what about you? When will you leave Fengtian?"

"I'm not leaving for the time being." Wei Hanzhi smiled: "I will stay and implement the 'Plan No. 1'."

“Plan No. 1?”

Wei Hanzhi poured himself a cup of tea: "Blast all the military supplies and facilities in Fengtian, and these things cannot be left to the islanders. At the same time, the long-term lurking plan will be implemented. I know that you are secretly transferring the vault of the Fengtian Official Silver General Account, and this work is going well..."

Zheng Yong frowned. Luo Yumeng was still loyal to Wei Hanzhi after all. He was the first to report to Wei Hanzhi no matter what happened.

"I will help Luo Yumeng." Wei Hanzhi smiled faintly.

"I can assure you that this vault will not fall into the hands of the islanders, nor will it be returned to the deputy commander-in-chief. One day it will be handed over to your hands intact."

"The teacher's seat is secretly sent to Nanjing."

As he was talking, Zheng Wengen walked in and put a telegram into Zheng Yong's hands.

I browsed it all in a hurry and found that it was Wei Hanzhi's telegram that the commander-in-chief ordered him to break through.

"Zheng Wengen, convene all officers above the regiment to convene a military meeting at 8 o'clock tonight." Zheng Yong put the telegram aside expressionlessly.

From the faces of Master Zuo and Wei Hanzhi, Zheng Wengen seemed to see something and nodded silently.

"Hengyuan, my uncle gives you a word." Wei Hanzhi said calmly.

"If you want to make a difference in this troubled time, you must not give up in addition to the right person, that is, the control of the army. If someone has a gun, it means you have everything..."

In his own era, almost everyone knew this sentence, but now it has a different meaning when Wei Hanzhi said it.

"My uncle will be lurking here for a long time, and I don't know if I can still live."

Wei Hanzhi was a little sad when he said this.

"You will have to rely on you alone in the future. Your mother has gone, and you are the only one left in the Zheng family. Let's start a family earlier and leave some blood for the Zheng family and the Wei family. If you can have a second child, would you please let his surname be Wei?"

This is almost a bit begging.

In Zheng Yong's memory, Wei Hanzhi seemed to have never said this before, and he nodded silently...

During the meal, Wei Hanzhi seemed to be particularly interested in Chunni. After looking at her for a long time, Chunni's face turned red and lowered her head.

After asking about Chunni's family, Wei Hanzhi sighed.

"It's also a miserable child. Chunni, remember, no matter where she goes in the future, she must follow Hengyuan..."

Chunni nodded with a red face.

"I think Chunni is a good kid." Wei Hanzhi drank some wine for the first time today. His face was red with a very shallow alcohol content.

"Your mother is gone, my uncle will help you decide. Just find a day in these few days and you will get married."

Chunni lowered her head deeper.

"Uncle, I don't have the heart to consider this issue now." Zheng Yong smiled bitterly.

"If Hengyuan wants to achieve great things, he must keep his face unchanged."

Wei Hanzhi took a sip of wine, looked at the two of them meaningfully, and said.

"Even if the islanders are fighting to the bottom of their noses, they still have to do whatever they should do. There is no need to get married when they are in war? We will do nothing when they are in war? I think that's it, get married!"

My uncle, now at this moment... Zheng Yong sighed long.

All his thoughts are now put on Fengtian's retreat. Are he really going to leave here? Waiting for another time to come? Will he come back one day?

No one will give him an explanation.
