The generals and schools at the scene burst into tears again: "Principal, teacher's wife..."

Jiang Weiguo watched this scene, and a sentence popped into his mind: "Every qualified politician is an actor!"

More than an hour later, Jiang Weiguo and Chiang Kai-shek "send" Song Meiling and Chiang Ching-kuo to leave Nanjing together.

The black convoy of China's "first family" drove slowly on the unrecognizable roads inside and outside Nanjing. Chiang Kai-shek, Song Meiling, Chiang Ching-kuo, and Jiang Weiguo in the car looked at the scenery outside with different attitudes.

There is a desolate and decadent atmosphere in the city of Nanjing. The city that once had a population of one million now has only 20 soldiers and civilians, and most of the troops are in the hilltop positions outside the city, and most of the civilians are in air-raid shelters and basements. The city is desolate and deserted. Most of the houses and buildings in the city have been vacated and the gates are closed. The sycamore trees on both sides of the street have been cut clean. Teams of soldiers, military police, and civilians under militarized management walked through the streets in an orderly and purposeful manner, and put them into their respective combat positions or jobs. Many masonry buildings were demolished, and even many roads The old road bricks and slabs were also pried away for the construction of fortifications.

Planes roared in the sky of Nanjing, fighter jets cruised and patrolled vigilantly, and transport planes were almost exhausted between Nanjing and the rear cities, trying their best to get more weapons and equipment, ordnance and ammunition, clothes and medicines before the war started. The materials were transported to Nanjing, and the take-off and landing fleets gathered in the sky of Nanjing to form a dazzling air formation, and the roar of the engines resounded through the sky.

The ancient capital of Jinling, which was originally beautiful and full of misty rain, was now completely shrouded in the atmosphere of war.

Nanjing is also known as the "Stone City", and it is indeed worthy of the name at this time, it is completely a "castle made of stones".

The inside of the city is completely changed, and the outside of the city is full of devastation. The most obvious is Zijin Mountain. This famous mountain in the south of the Yangtze River looks like an ugly toad at this time. The beautiful lake and mountains have become barren mountains. The trees have been cut down, forming blank soil spots one by one, just like dense manges emerging from the green and healthy skin of the earth.

"Nanjing, you ruined it like this!" Chiang Kai-shek, who was in the same car with Jiang Weiguo, looked at him and couldn't help shaking his head and smiling bitterly. The bitter smile was full of sadness and sadness.

After leaving the garrison headquarters, the convoy did not go straight to the airport, but made several laps in and out of Nanjing according to Chiang Kai-shek's order.

"It's not me, it's the Japanese!" Jiang Weiguo shrugged.

"Wei'er, your father and I have experienced so many storms and waves. I didn't expect to be so restless and anxious today. It is even worse than the Xi'an Incident!" Chiang Kai-shek became more sad and sad, "Just as Li Yu wrote , "The small building was windy again last night, and the homeland is unbearable to look back at the moonlight."

well! "He sighed and moaned endlessly.

"Father, don't be too sad, we will win! You will come back soon! I promise you!" Jiang Weiguo couldn't help being infected by Chiang Kai-shek's emotions, so he spoke comforting words.

Chiang Kai-shek looked at Jiang Weiguo with a wry smile: "Wei'er, do you think I will come back after a few years?"

Jiang Weiguo said with a smile: "When I sent Chairman Lin away from Nanjing, he also asked me this question!"

"Oh? How did you answer?"

"I said, five or six years for the slow ones, three or four years for the fast ones!"

Chiang Kai-shek smiled: "Is this your truth or did you say it deliberately to comfort Chairman Lin?"

Jiang Weiguo looked firm, and his tone was firm: "The truth! Because I still want to answer you like this, father, the slow one is five or six years, and the fast one is three or four years!"

"Okay, okay!" Chiang Kai-shek nodded again and again, "I hope so, I hope so!"

After paying farewell to Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, Chiang Kai-shek, Song Meiling, Chiang Ching-kuo, and Jiang Weiguo drove to a temporary field airport near the Ming Palace Airport in the city (Nanjing City now has two regular large airports, Ming Palace Airport and Dajiaochang Airport, and another five Six small and medium-sized temporary field airfields for backup), the "Meiling" special plane and sixteen escorting bf-109 fighter jets are ready on the airfield.

After the convoy stopped, the four members of the Chiang family gathered together. Chiang Kai-shek, Song Meiling, and Chiang Ching-kuo looked at Jiang Weiguo together, their eyes full of extreme reluctance and reluctance.

Because the four of them went to the airport, on the surface, it was Chiang Kai-shek and Jiang Weiguo who came to send off Song Meiling and Chiang Ching-kuo, but in fact it was Jiang Weiguo who came to send off Chiang Kai-shek, Song Meiling, and Chiang Ching-kuo. Among the four members of the Chiang family, only Jiang Weiguo really stayed in Nanjing.

This airport is not big. Two or three hundred soldiers, military police, and special agents are on alert at the edge of the airport. The pilots are all waiting in the plane, and there are no "idle people waiting."

At the time of parting, Chiang Kai-shek was suddenly moved, Song Meiling's eyes were moist, and Chiang Ching-kuo's eyes were even redder.

Jiang Weiguo smiled openly: "Father, mother, brother, take care of yourself!"

Chiang Kai-shek looked at Jiang Weiguo, and moved his lips, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't speak.

"Weiguo..." Soong Meiling suddenly took Jiang Weiguo's hand, her expression anxious and her voice hurried, "This is the last plane to leave Nanjing, you...you...you better go with us! Don't be brave, bullets don't have eyes ah!"

Jiang Weiguo smiled very freely: "Mother, are you instigating me to run away? According to the military regulations of the Nanjing Army, if you run away, you will be shot!"

Soong Meiling took out a handkerchief, turned her head, and kept wiping away her tears.

Jiang Jingguo couldn't help hugging Jiang Weiguo, and burst into tears: "Brother Weiguo, my brother is really not as good as you...my good brother..." He choked up and burst into tears, "You must protect yourself, Please don't let anything happen!"

Soong Meiling sobbed softly: "Weiguo, you have to take care! You must protect yourself! Even if Nanjing is lost, it doesn't matter. As long as you come to Wuhan safely after the war, our family will be reunited in Wuhan again." Together, I will be content!"

Jiang Weiguo's nose is also a little sour. Although he is a "fake", after all, people have to have a home and a place to belong. For so long, he has really regarded Chiang Kai-shek, Song Meiling, Chiang Ching-kuo, Mrs. Yao and others as his own. loved ones.

Jiang Weiguo looked at Song Meiling and Chiang Ching-kuo, then at Chiang Kai-shek: "Father, I'm fine, and we will definitely win!"

Chiang Kai-shek looked at Jiang Weiguo, his expression melted, and the circles of his eyes were slightly red: "Okay, okay..."

"Father, mother, elder brother, let's go!" Jiang Weiguo urged sincerely.

Chiang Kai-shek looked at Jiang Weiguo repeatedly with gentle and sad eyes, nodded, and then walked towards the plane with slightly heavy steps. Soong Meiling covered her nose with a handkerchief and followed behind Chiang Kai-shek while weeping. Jiang Jingguo turned around every step, his eyes became redder.

Jiang Weiguo watched the backs of Chiang Kai-shek, Song Meiling, and Chiang Ching-kuo leave, took advantage of a gap, took out the mustard powder hidden in his pocket, and licked it hard.

Immediately, an extremely pungent smell and electric stimulant taste rushed into Jiang Weiguo's nasal cavity and mouth, and he almost sneezed. After desperately holding back the sneeze, he was already crying.

"Father!" Just as Chiang Kai-shek stepped onto the gangway of the plane, Jiang Weiguo, who was more than ten meters away, suddenly shouted loudly.

Chiang Kai-shek turned his head in surprise, and Song Meiling and Chiang Ching-kuo also turned their heads in surprise.

Jiang Weiguo bent his knees, clenched his fists, and tensed his upper body, and then knelt down straight to Chiang Kai-shek.

"Father!" Jiang Weiguo's eyes were red and tears were streaming down his face. His expression was solemn and solemn, and his voice was loud and trembling. Please forgive me, my son! Father, please take care of yourself!" After speaking, Jiang Weiguo bowed his head and kowtowed heavily to Chiang Kai-shek three times.

When he raised his head, Jiang Weiguo burst into tears.

Chiang Kai-shek, Soong Meiling, and Chiang Ching-kuo were stunned together. After recovering, Soong Meiling took out her handkerchief again, and whispered while wiping her tears: "Silly boy, silly boy..."

Chiang Kai-shek looked at Jiang Weiguo, his eyes were moist, "Okay!" His voice was trembling, "Good boy, good boy..."

Jiang Jingguo covered his eyes: "Silly brother, silly brother..."

Jiang Weiguo stood up, weeping and smiling: "Father, mother, brother, let's go, I'm going to the battlefield!"

Chiang Kai-shek stretched out his hand tremblingly, as if he wanted to touch Jiang Weiguo, but he withdrew his hand and got on the plane.

After Chiang Kai-shek entered the plane, the next "Chiang Kai-shek" stepped out of the plane was He Yun.

He Yun had already hid in the plane in advance, and after Chiang Kai-shek boarded the plane, his double got off the plane, so that the soldiers, military police, and secret agents around the airport would think that Chiang Kai-shek was just helping Song Meiling carry luggage on the plane, and put down the plane. Get off the plane with your luggage.

Knowing that "Chiang Kai-shek" in Nanjing is just a stand-in, there are no more than ten people including Chiang Kai-shek himself, stand-in He Yun, Song Meiling, Jiang Jingguo, Jiang Weiguo, Chen Lifu, chief guard Wang Shihe, and the head of the attendant room Qian Dajun who is already waiting in Wuhan. Even Tang Shengzhi didn't know about it, and even He Yingqin and Chen Cheng, who were already in Wuhan, were kept in the dark for the time being.

The Meiling special plane and escort fighter jets began to take off. Jiang Weiguo on the airport looked at the plane, and Chiang Kai-shek on the plane also looked at Jiang Weiguo.

The father and son looked at each other, and the distance was getting farther and farther away. Chiang Kai-shek burst into tears, and Jiang Weiguo even burst into tears. He watched the flying fleet for a long time, until the fleet disappeared into the sky and stood still, with tears streaming down his face. , sobbing.

He Yun said with emotion: "Second Young Master, the chairman is really lucky to have such a filial son like you!"

Jiang Weiguo choked up and nodded, he kept wiping away the unstoppable tears, and cursed in his heart: "That bastard Xiao Yao, where did he get this bag of mustard? It made me snot and cry !" He turned around, and although he was still crying, his face was tense, his expression was determined, and his eyes were filled with a kind of ferocious ruthlessness.

Looking at the majestic Nanjing City, Jiang Weiguo grinned and thought, "Japanese, come on! I'm waiting for you!"

Sending away Chiang Kai-shek, Song Meiling, and Chiang Ching-kuo had already cost Jiang Weiguo a lot of trouble, and the next batch of people he planned to send away was even more troublesome for him.

Among the ten princelings, the eldest Jiang Jingguo left Nanjing with Chiang Kai-shek and Soong Meiling, the third Dai Anguo was in Europe, the ninth Jin Dingguo was in Southeast Asia, the eighth Jiang Weiguo would definitely stay in Nanjing, the second Yu Wangde, the fourth Wang Wenying, The fifth Sun Zhiping, the sixth Ju Boqiang, the seventh Sun Zhiqiang, and the tenth Zhang Jizheng swarmed together and wanted to stay in Nanjing. Jiang Weiguo couldn't persuade them at all, so he had to follow them.

Jiang Weiguo finally went to see Mrs. Yao off. Mrs. Yao must not be on the same plane as Chiang Kai-shek, Song Meiling, and Chiang Ching-kuo. After all, it would be too embarrassing. He also sent Yang Mei, Cai Wenna, and Shi Liling away along the way.

Although Mrs. Yao couldn't bear it and didn't want to let go of Jiang Weiguo, she knew that staying in Nanjing was just a burden to Jiang Weiguo, so she kept wiping tears and exhorted Jiang Weiguo thousands of times while being sent to a transport plane by Jiang Weiguo. However, Jiang Weiguo's three None of his girlfriends would leave Nanjing. He tried his best to do ideological work (it must be done separately), but to no avail.

"I'm a soldier too!" Yang Mei pointed to her military uniform, "My mission is to protect you!"

"I won't go! I'm determined not to go!" Cai Wenna cried while hugging Jiang Weiguo, "If you die, what will I do? If you die in Nanjing, I will die in Nanjing with you!"

"I won't go, I'm determined not to go!" Shi Liling looked at Jiang Weiguo with tears and resentment in his eyes, "I'll put you in prison, otherwise other women will take advantage of the situation.

There are three now, if we are separated from you for a while, maybe there will be six next time!"

"What about the child? You'd better take the child to the rear for me!" Jiang Weiguo took out his trump card.

"Mrs. Yao helped take care of her! Sister Cai's child is also taken care of by Mrs. Yao!" Shi Liling said.

Jiang Weiguo tried his best, but in the end there was nothing he could do.

On December 12, the Battle of Nanjing officially broke out.

Chapter 250 Nanjing Army Formation

The Chinese army defending Nanjing was called the "Nanjing Army".

"Nanjing Army" is a specific word with two meanings. One refers to the Chinese army ordered to participate in the defense of Nanjing, and the other is the official designation of the Chinese army ordered to defend Nanjing.

The Nanjing Army consists of 10 units, including 7 infantry divisions (4 central army infantry divisions and 3 local army infantry divisions), 1 military police regiment, 1 artillery brigade, and 1 engineering brigade, with a total strength of more than 10 people (The engineering brigade is actually composed of regular engineers and temporary migrant workers, and the brigade is not a front-line force like the gendarmerie. The gendarmerie is responsible for the security of Nanjing city, and the engineering brigade is responsible for the construction of Nanjing city, so the number of soldiers in this brigade is not included in the Nanjing army in the total number of combat troops).

It is worth mentioning that the personnel appointment list of the middle and high-level officers of the Nanjing Army is somewhat abnormal, because the national army can mobilize more than 30 troops to defend Nanjing after the Battle of Songhu. Committed the mistake of overcorrecting and overcorrecting. If too many troops are put into the Nanjing battlefield, East China, Central China, South China and other places will inevitably lack field troops with actual combat experience and strong combat effectiveness for a long time. Therefore, the troops used to defend Nanjing The total number of "Nanjing Army" was limited to 10 soldiers. At the same time, a large number of middle and high-level officers insisted on staying in Nanjing to participate in the war. As a result, the Nanjing Army "had more generals and fewer soldiers." Many senior officers even asked to be demoted to participate in the war. The brigade commander in the Nanjing Army is willing to be the commander of the regiment in the Nanjing Army, and so on. Therefore, the appointment of senior officers in the Nanjing Army does not take seniority into account, forming a kind of "hodgepodge"; In addition to the officers who led the troops to take office, there were also many officers on standby in the Nanjing Garrison Headquarters. On the one hand, these officers served as "senior staff officers (senior staff officers)" in the headquarters and participated in making plans for war; The frontline troops quickly replenished after losing officers.

For example, a certain infantry division of the Nanjing Army has a division commander in its establishment, and there are one or two "reserve division commanders" in the Nanjing Garrison Command, and so on.

南京军包括第77师、第88师、第99师、第100师、第145师、第170师、第182师、南京宪兵团、南京炮兵旅、南京工兵旅,全军德械。

The four chief officers of the Nanjing Army were synchronized with the four chief officers of the Nanjing Garrison Command.
