When Gu Ruhu came to Jiangnan, he remembered Qin Di's reminder back then, and came to the magic capital for a special trip.

When Qin Di saw him, he led him to a dock and said, "I have prepared 280 light machine guns, 30 heavy machine guns, and 50 cannons for you." Don't lose my face!"

Gu Ruhu was ecstatic: "Where is the gun?"

"In the warehouse, someone will help load the ship later. ”

"Sir, where did you get so many guns?"

"I paid for it! For the war of resistance, I am about to go bankrupt!"

"Sir, you are amazing!"

"There are guns, but there may not be enough bullets. ”

Gu Ruhu said with a smile: "Sir, I took the million oceans you gave me and bought some ammunition before going out of Sichuan this time. ”

Qin Di said: "That's good, I also customized a batch of bullets from abroad, and it will take two months to ship." ”

After a while, Han Jiang came over with a few people, carried guns and ammunition from the warehouse, put them on a cargo ship, and helped Gu Ruhu transport them away.

Seeing that 813 was getting closer and closer, and there was only one month left, Qin Di had to urge his family to leave the magic capital as soon as possible!

However, Zhu Wan and Qin Ling went to the school to call on the students to retreat west, but they were rejected by most of the students!

Young people's blood is boiling, everyone else is fighting the war, and you let them retreat, isn't that playing the piano to the cow?

Moreover, 813 has not yet arrived after all, and the people of the magic capital have always thought that the notice posted on the telephone pole is a rumor, so it is normal for these students to be reluctant to evacuate.

In the end, after some painstaking persuasion by Zhu Wan and Qin Ling, only 20% of the students agreed to follow.

Qin Di knew in his heart that there was no big problem for these students to stay, because of the protection of the concession, the Japanese would not kill as soon as they came up, but her mother Zhu Wan and sister Qin Ling must not stay!

So, on the morning of July 20, he personally escorted his father, mother, sister, uncle Zhu Zeduan, grandmother Liu Qing and other relatives, as well as more than 100 students, boarded a passenger ship, left the magic capital, and sailed through Jinling before he returned.

As for her sister Qin Yue, she doesn't want to leave for the time being!

Qin Yue said: "Brother, I have discussed with my husband, if the war is unfavorable, we will retreat to the southwest, and we may go to Kunming." ”

Qin Di nodded, and just told her that when you go out, remember to bring your bodyguard!

For this reason, he personally summoned those bodyguards, paid a sum of money in advance, and told them to protect the people, and when the war was over, each of them would buy a house in the magic capital!

Houses in the magic capital are getting more and more expensive, but they are not something that ordinary people can afford.

On July 28, the Magic City Literary and Art Salvation Association was established.

That night, accompanied by the grand pianist Gu Rumei, Ge Xianxue sang five songs on stage to the evening, and the audience was enthusiastic and let out an earth-shattering roar: "War of Resistance, War of Resistance, Fight to the Death!"

That night, the Literary and Art Association raised 4.3 million yuan, part of which was to relieve the fleeing people, and part of it was to organize a drama troupe to carry out more extensive publicity.

On July 29, Beiping and Tianjin fell.

On 4 August, Commander-in-Chief Zhu and Vice Chairman Zhou went to Jinling to attend a national defense conference.

On 9 August, Japanese Marine Corps Lieutenant Yuo Oyama led his soldier Saito Yozo to drive a military car to force an assault on Hongqiao Airport, where he was killed on the spot by airport guards.

On August 12, the Supreme Council of National Defense was established, and Mr. Qing was appointed Generalissimo of the three armed services.

On August 13, the Japanese launched a large-scale attack on the magic capital, based on the concession and the Japanese ships anchored in the Huangpu River. The Chinese garrison rose up to resist and, with the support of the people of the whole country, began a three-month-long battle.

A total of about 1 million troops from both China and Japan were engaged in the battle.

The Chinese troops participating in the war were divided into three groups, left, center, and right, with a total of 70 divisions, seven brigades, and more than 700,000 people.

Among them, Chen Cheng, commander-in-chief of the Left Wing Combat Army, and the generals below included Luo Zhuoying of the 18th Army, Peng Shan of the 11th Division, Wan Yaohuang of the 13th Division, Huo Yuzhang of the 14th Division, Chen Yong of the 44th Division, Chen Pei of the 60th Division, and Huang Wei of the 67th Division; Yu Jishi of the 74th Army, Wang Yaowu of the 51st Division, and Yu Jishi of the 58th Division; Hu Shoushan of the First Army, Li Tiejun of the 1st Division, and Li Wen of the 78th Division; Liu Heding of the 39th Army and Liu Shangzhi of the 56th Division; Xue Yue of the 19th Group Army; Wu Qiwei of the 4th Army, Han Hanying of the 59th Division, and Ou Zhen of the 90th Division; Ye Zhao of the 66th Army, Luo Lin of the 77th Division, and Tan Di of the 159th Division; and the 16th of the 16th DivisionYe Zhao of the 69th Army, Tao Zhiyue of the 8th Division, Wang Dongyuan of the 15th Division, Peng Songqi of the 16th Division, Ruan Zhaochang of the 57th Division, and Wang Xiushen of the 32nd Division.

The 10th Group Army, Commander-in-Chief Liu Jianxu, Li Jue of the 70th Army, Li Jue of the 19th Division, Dai Minquan of the 45th Division, Lu Xingrong of the 52nd Division, etc.

It can be said that Mr. Qingbai Dangqing really worked hard to fight this big war and took out all his family resources!

From the founding of the Republic of China in 1912 to August 1937, after so many years of tossing, it was hard to accumulate these troops, and most of them were pulled up except for the troops left behind!

On the Japanese side, there were three troop increases, totaling more than 300,000 troops.

The first large-scale increase in troops, on August 14, the first batch of troops was formed into the Modu Dispatch Army, with the commander General Matsui Ishine, the chief of staff, Major General Mamoru Iinuma, the 3rd Division, the division commander, Lieutenant General Fujita Susumu, the 11th Division, the division commander, Lieutenant General Yamamuro Munetake, and the 6th Independent Flying Squadron.

Japan's second large-scale increase in troops, including 10 infantry brigades, 3 artillery brigades, 2 engineer brigades, Shigeto Detachment (5 infantry brigades and 1 mountain artillery squadron of the Taiwan garrison), the 9th Division, the 13th Division, the 101st Division, and the 5th Field Heavy Artillery Brigade.

Japan's third large-scale increase in troops, on October 20, issued an order to send the 10th Army, landing on the north shore of Hangzhou Bay, as well as the 6th Division, the 18th Division, the 114th Division, the Kunisaki Detachment, the 2nd Wing of the Independent Mountain Artillery, the 6th Brigade of the Field Heavy Artillery, the 16th Division, etc.

In addition to the five cruisers of the Japanese 1st and 3rd Fleets at Wusongkou, the cruisers of the second class such as Kawauchi, Yura, Natori, and Kinu, as well as the new first-class destroyers such as Shiyu, Shiraro, Yudu, Ariake, Hatsusui, Kohi, Wakaba, and Hatsuharu, were anchored near Songhu as early as 10 August. On 11 August, 16 warships of the Sasebo 2nd Fleet arrived, and the Japanese Navy used aircraft carriers such as Kaga and Tatsusho to fight in response to Japan's own fleet of aircraft in the vicinity of Sheshan Island outside the mouth of the Yangtze River.

It can be said that Japan has also poured most of its national strength into making a big gamble near the magic capital.
