    Immediately afterwards, Chairman Chiang held the third war defense meeting.

    In the previous two meetings, the fierce confrontation between the main war faction and the abandonment faction resulted in the delay in reaching a resolution, so this time, Chairman Chiang decided to act dictatorially!

    There¡¯s really no time to argue!  No matter how noisy the Japanese were, they would all reach the outside of Nanjing!

    The meeting had just begun, and before the senior generals attending the meeting could speak, Chairman Chiang set the tone: "Nanjing is the capital of the Republic of China, and it is also the location of the tomb of the former Prime Minister. It must be defended, and it must be defended with all its strength! Meng Xiao!"

    When his name was called, Tang Shengzhi immediately stood up and said loudly: "Here, what are your orders, Chairman?"

    Chairman Chiang said: "As you said, the party-state needs a general to guard Nanjing. I hope you can stay and take up the important task of staying in Nanjing. What do you think?"

    Tang Shengzhi stood at attention and said proudly: "I can't guarantee anything else, but one thing is certain. I am in Nanjing. If Nanjing is not here, I will definitely not be here either!"

    Tang Shengzhi¡¯s implication is that he wants to coexist with Nanjing City!

    "Meng Xiao, your words are enough!" Chairman Jiang's eyes turned red. It took him a long time to control his emotions, and then continued, "If you have any requests, just ask!"

    Tang Shengzhi immediately said: "If we want to hold Nanjing, Xiaoshan's military police regiment alone will definitely not be enough. The chairman of the committee will probably have to leave a few elite troops that can fight!"

    "Of course, of course!" Chairman Jiang nodded, "I will leave you the 36th Division, the 87th Division, the 88th Division, the 74th Army, and the Central Military Academy Teaching Corps. In addition, I will let Xu Yuanquan.  The 2nd Army Corps, Ye Zhao's 66th Army, and Deng Guanglong's 83rd Army will also come to Nanjing to join you as soon as possible. Are these troops enough?"

    Tang Shengzhi nodded quickly and said: "Enough, enough, enough!"

    Chairman Chiang really brought out all his direct line troops this time, and Old Tang was satisfied.

    Although He Yingqin, Bai Chongxi and others complained about this, they did not insist on their opposition anymore since the matter was over. In addition, the troops left behind by Chairman Chiang were all his direct troops.

    In this way, the Nanjing Garrison Headquarters was quickly set up.

    Tang Shengzhi captured Luo Zhuoying and Liu Xing, two strong men, and asked them to serve as deputy commanders of the garrison. He also hired his fellow countryman Zhou Lan to be the chief of staff of the headquarters.

    Zhou Lan is a famous general of the Hunan Army. It only took half a day to formulate a battle plan to defend Nanjing. The entire defense area was divided into two lines of defense, the inner and outer lines. The outer line of defense was Niushou Mountain, Fangshan, Tangshan, Chunhua, Fengniushan, and Qixiashan.  For support, several troops with the strongest combat effectiveness were all placed on the outer defense line.

    Once the outer defense line is lost, all troops will retreat to the compound position, or even retreat into the city to fight with the enemy in the streets.

    Zhou Lan¡¯s defense plan can be said to be quite satisfactory, with no highlights, but this is already the best choice!

    Immediately afterwards, all personnel, materials and remaining troops in Nanjing began to agitate intensively!

    In order to strengthen the determination to resist the war and cut off the idea of ????escape for all the soldiers, Tang Shengzhi even issued an order to gather all the ferries and destroy them.

    Unfortunately, this move was fiercely opposed by Luo Zhuoying, Liu Xing, and almost all army commanders and division commanders.

    When Tang Shengzhi saw the possibility of arousing public anger, he immediately changed his mind and ordered most of the ships to be destroyed, leaving only a small number of them to be guarded by Song Xilian's 36th Division!

    This has laid hidden dangers for the defense of Nanjing!

    ¡­¡­

    While the Nationalist Government was busy transferring personnel, materials and institutions from Nanjing, and while the Nationalist Army was preparing intensively for the battle to defend Nanjing, the Japanese Army was also advancing rapidly on the northern and southern fronts.

    The Guoqi detachment of the Tenth Army advanced particularly quickly and even reached Wuhu!

    Although the 367 regiment tried its best to harass, in the end there was only one regiment and was unable to change the overall situation.

    By the beginning of December, the Japanese 13th Division had advanced to the vicinity of Qixia Mountain, the 16th Division had advanced to Tangshan, the 9th Division had advanced to Chunhua, and the 6th Division had advanced to the line from Fangshan to Niushou Mountain.  The vanguard Guoqi detachment has captured Wuhu and completely closed the west gate of Nanjing!

    At this point, no personnel or supplies in Nanjing can leave at all!

    Having said that, those who can run at this time have already finished running, and the rest are all unwilling to run or unable to run, such as power plant workers, such as railway workers, such as doctors, they must stick to their posts!  Because the upcoming battle to defend Nanjing also requires their contribution!

     In the blink of an eye, time came to December 7, 1937.

    At this time, the faint sound of cannons could already be heard in Nanjing.

    ¡­¡­

    At four o'clock in the morning, more than two hours before dawn, Chairman Chiang's special car appeared at the Ming Palace Airport.

    In the darkness, the Meiling special plane and two escorting fighter jets had been filled with fuel and parked quietly on the runway.

    The reason why we have to leave so early is for safety, because Japanese bombers may come over after dawn and bomb Nanjing. If the Japanese bombers discover the Meiling, the result will be catastrophic!

    Chairman Chiang Kai-shek will take the Meiling to Lushan, and then fly from Lushan to Wuhan!

    Tang Shengzhi made a special trip to see off Chairman Jiang. Chairman Jiang held Tang Shengzhi¡¯s hand and did not let go for a long time.

    Tang Shengzhi replied that Chairman Chiang was worried about him, so he immediately said generously: "Chairman, don't worry, I, Old Tang, will definitely keep my word. I said that if you are in the city, you will be able to do it!"

    "Brother Meng Xiao, I'm at ease with you!" Chairman Jiang finally let go of his hands and said, "It's just, it's just"

    Tang Shengzhi was confused by Chairman Chiang¡¯s unwillingness to speak, and thought to himself, you are not a big girl getting into a sedan chair, so why are you acting so coquettishly?

    Chairman Chiang is actually worried about his direct troops!

    The 36th Division, the 87th Division, the 88th Division, the 74th Army, and the Central Military Academy Teaching Corps are the direct lineage among direct lineages, the ace among aces. If these troops were to be completely wiped out in Nanjing, it would be a huge loss for the Central Army.  It¡¯s too big!  Therefore, Chairman Chiang still hopes to reserve a way out.

    At that moment, Chairman Chiang whispered: "Brother Meng Xiao, if the situation cannot last long, you can retreat immediately!"

    "Ah?" Tang Shengzhi was stunned when he heard this. What is going on?  What the Chairman means is that the situation is not right and I can evacuate with the troops guarding Nanjing?

    After being stunned for a while, Tang Shengzhi finally came back to his senses.

    Looking up again, I saw that Chairman Chiang had already boarded the Meiling with Mrs. Chiang, and the Meiling was already taxiing on the runway. After a while, the Meiling soared into the night sky!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
