Lin Xi learned about the strength he had, including the 88th and 87th divisions of the German Armament Division, as well as a completely disabled 89th Division, as well as the 51st and 58th Divisions of the 74th Army and the 154th and 156th Divisions of the 83rd Army, and a 36th Division (German Armament Division) of the 78th Army, plus two divisions of the Teaching Corps, three regiments of the military police, including the police, etc., with a total of 150,000 people, the real regular army is only 80,000, and there are 30,000 recruits. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

According to the requirements of the mission, the casualties must not exceed 200,000, which seems to be only 100,000 less than 300,000, but the army has more than 100,000, which will definitely not stop the Japanese army, and the army will definitely exceed 200,000 after the expansion, that is to say, the casualties of civilians must be less than the casualties of the army, otherwise we have to pray that the casualties of the army will be reduced; However, the mission required the killing of 50,000 Japanese soldiers, and you must know that the historical defense of Nanjing only killed thousands of Japanese soldiers, plus only 12,000 wounded. But thinking about the comparison of the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army with that of the Central Army, it is a headache for a while.......

"The following divisions were ordered to be reorganized, and the 89th Division was merged into the 88th Division (division commander Sun Yuanliang) and the 87th Division (division commander Wang Jingjiu) after splitting; The teaching corps is combined as a teaching instructor, and the positions remain unchanged, and the division commander is Gui Yongqing, the former captain of the teaching corps; The 74th and 83rd armies remained unchanged; The 36th Division of the 78th Army, including the military police regiment and the police, was reorganized into a garrison, which was served by Song Xilian, commander of the 78th Army, and was responsible for the security of Nanjing City and the general reserve ....."

The identity that Lan Ling arranged for Lin Xi was very effective, in order not to interfere with Lin Xi's command, all important military and political affairs belonged to Lin Xi, this was the first time that Lin Xi became the commander of the campaign, so there was no interference from others, but it was impossible to say in the future, I don't know when Jiang Guangtou would come to overstep the command.

This will be the content of the training in the future, after all, a good commander must have his own opinions, and he will not be subject to military orders abroad, whether it is for generals or commanders abroad. If it can be understood, it will undoubtedly greatly deepen the trust in the front-line generals, which is also to cultivate Lin Xi's trust in his subordinates.

Ahem, these are all things in the future, Lin Xi commanded a large-scale battle for the first time, and he didn't interfere with him, so now Lin Xi is the boss in Nanjing City, of course, it is limited to Nanjing City, and there will definitely be no rescue.......

"Everyone, we will definitely not be able to defend the city of Nanjing! I'm sure you can see that, too. However, I have intercepted important information, the little devils will carry out a brutal massacre after the destruction of Nanjing....." Lin Xi didn't dare to trust these generals too much, some were bloody Chinese soldiers, but some were bureaucrats who were greedy for life and afraid of death, so Lin Xi needed to twist them into a rope, so as not to end up dropping the chain for him.

After Lin Xi finished speaking, he muttered a lot, discussing the consequences of this information.

"Report to the Commander-in-Chief!" A general stood up, and Lin Xi remembered what Sun Yuanliang seemed to be called, "We will wait to die and live and die with Nanjing City." ”

"Swear to live and die with Nanjing City!"

"Swear to live and die with Nanjing City!"

After Sun Yuanliang finished speaking, everyone felt the same way, and there were bursts of slogans.

Song Xilian looked at Sun Yuanliang's actions and thought that Sun Yuanliang would not change his sex. But Lin Xi had a good impression of Sun Yuanliang's actions, although he didn't know him, he should be a patriotic general judging by his performance.......

"Okay, since everyone has the determination to die, we should fight the Japanese invaders hard, we must not let the plot of the little devils succeed, even if all the soldiers of our generation are bloody, we must protect the people in Nanjing, in addition, this afternoon to gather the army and the people, I want to make a speech before the war....." Lin Xi didn't think that what he just said could bluff those bureaucrats, and when they were about to die, they would dare to sell their ancestors, what else would they not dare.

Therefore, Lin Xi wanted to use the very useful pre-war speeches of the Taizu army in history to boost morale.

"In addition, there are some things that can be prepared in advance, General Song Xilian, your garrison is responsible for recruiting and training troops in Nanjing, recruits are not allowed to be sent to the battlefield without training for a week, and the garrison must also control the ships on the Yangtze River, without my order, you can't let a boat leave the port. Collect food and medicine from the whole city, ...... Lin Xi appointed Song Xilian as the captain of the garrison because he had seen this person in the previous history books, and heard that he was a famous anti-Japanese general in the Kuomintang later, so he was placed in the garrison for later use.

..............

In the afternoon, the city of Nanjing was solemn and quiet, in addition to the necessary guards, nearly 100,000 people of the whole army were gathered here, and there were hundreds of thousands of people in Nanjing.

"Compatriots in Nanjing, now the Japanese invaders are rampant, since 918 has been constantly encroaching on our territory, the Battle of Songhu we broke the Japanese invasion of China for three months, and now the Japanese invaders are pressing, and they will come to the city of Nanjing in a few days........ We have received accurate reports that Little Japan will carry out a brutal massacre in Nanjing after the destruction of Nanjing, compatriots, can we bear it? Lin Xi's last sentence was shouted out.

"Can't! No! Hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians shouted in unison.

"The hundreds of thousands of troops in Nanjing City will be the Great Wall of Steel for the people in Nanjing, if the little devil wants to kill our compatriots, he will have to go up with our corpses......." Lin Xi's voice echoed in the square, "We call on the compatriots in the city to have money to contribute, and make a strong contribution, I hope that everyone will actively join the army to fight the little devils to protect their families and defend the country, kill one is enough, kill two to earn a ........"

After Lin Xi completed the battlefield mobilization, not only was the morale of the army higher, but also the enthusiasm of the masses to join the army was very high. Lin Xi took over Nanjing City has an advantage, that is, the arsenal of Nanjing City is very sufficient, which can support the ammunition reserves of 300,000 troops for a month, and the weapons in the arsenal are enough to equip more than 100,000 people.

Originally, the Japanese army did not have enough ammunition to support the next battle after taking Nanjing, but unfortunately the existence of this arsenal did not become a boost for the Chinese army, but instead supplemented the Japanese army's ammunition loss and continued to attack Central China.

After Lin Xi checked the arsenal, he immediately changed the rifles of the whole army, and all the guns that were replaced were given to Song Xilian to train the recruits in one go.

.................

On the other side, the Japanese Guoqi detachment has occupied Pukou, Zhenjiang, Jurong, and Lishui have also been captured by the Japanese army, and the encirclement on three sides has become a comprehensive encirclement, and more than 100,000 Japanese troops rushed to Nanjing City

Now the only thing that Nanjing City can communicate with the outside world is the Yangtze River waterway (the Japanese navy could not enter the Yangtze River waterway after the Jiangyin Defense War), so Lin Xi controlled the port as soon as possible.

That's right, Lin Xi is preparing to take the waterway. Since the outbreak of the Battle of Songhu in the Anti-Japanese War, Nanjing has begun to have residents retreat one after another, and there are still five or six hundred thousand, the original millions of people in Nanjing City have already been ten rooms and nine empty, and the rest are too late to evacuate (official data), and later after the massacre, only more than 1,700 people survived in Nanjing City.

........

That night, Lin Xi had already ordered Song Xilian to organize the masses to evacuate by boat, and after withdrawing to Wuhu, the fleet returned to take over the next batch of evacuations.

According to Lin Xi's plan, the 88th and 87th divisions of the two German armament divisions were stationed on the first line of Zhonghua Gate in Yuhuatai and the first line of Zhongshan Gate in Purple Mountain, which was the focus of the Japanese attack, so good steel should be used on the blade, and Lin Xi was quite optimistic about Sun Yuanliang. Instructors are stationed at various gates and control the Lion Rock Fort; The 74th Army and the 83rd Army blocked the Japanese army at Gaojiaqiao and Tangshan respectively, not seeking to block, but only to delay the Japanese attack......

The next day, Lin Xi was thinking in front of the map.

I heard a staff officer report: "Report! ”

"Say!" Lin Xi studied the map and had a headache for a while, it was a dead end, and his tone was very bad.

"The Japanese army had already exchanged fire with the 74th Army and the 83rd Army an hour ago, and lost three lines .....of defense in half an hour," the staff officer said tremblingly, obviously frightened by Lin Xi.

"Mother, Xipi! Why is such an important matter only reported now, and the two army commanders should be pulled and shot..."Lin Xi handed over the fire an hour ago when he heard it, and immediately the fire capped.

As soon as the Tangshan line was lost, Nanjing City was directly exposed to the heavy artillery of the Japanese army, can it not make Lin Xi angry, what made Lin Xi most angry was that the military situation was actually delayed below, he did not expect that the bureaucracy of the Kuomintang army was so serious, and the military situation would be delayed if the battle was not effective......

Lin Xi's defense battle had just begun and was in a critical situation.........
