This defensive battle was the most cruel day. It fought from morning to evening. It was not until dark that the Japanese army stopped attacking. On this day, the casualties reached more than 50,000, and the casualties of the Japanese army also exceeded 10,000. Many generals who were defending the foreign defense line in Nanjing flew into the commander's headquarters like snowflakes.

Jiang Jieshi was also anxious to move around the commander's headquarters. He had already approved Rommel's plan. He had to hold on to this day, even if there was only one person left on the position, he could not retreat. Whoever dared to retreat was shot immediately, regardless of the size of the official position.

The strong men, militia and police around Nanjing were all sent to the front line. One wave of people fought for nothing, and the other wave immediately replenished them without rushing. The machine guns of the supervisory team behind were directly shot into sieve. Even if some Chinese people were afraid of death, they would eventually die at the gun of their own people. When the war reached this level, they could only fill in their lives.

There are mixed reviews about the fact that the scourge of men went to the front line. First of all, it is the responsibility of every Chinese to protect the family and the country. It is just that the scourge of men who have not been trained to the battlefield immediately is basically equivalent to dying. The result is that there is a problem with the government's military service system. There is no qualified supplementary soldiers after the war loss. The extremely helpless National Government can only scourge of men.

The most difficult day has passed, and Jiang Jieshi, who was in his throat, still couldn't feel relieved.

...

At 2 o'clock in the evening on June 25, 1938, the Nanjing University Campus Field was as usual, with people roaring, cars and horses neighing, and the Flying Eagle Legion began the night armed training again, and tens of thousands of people were conducting armed training. The movement was very loud, not to mention that there were countless trucks, hundreds of armored vehicles and tanks. Nanjing citizens sleeping on the bed could clearly feel the bed shaking slightly. Everyone was already accustomed to the Flying Eagle Legion in the University Campus Field had to conduct armed training every night. All Nanjing citizens sleeping more at ease when they heard this sound. This was like the gospel of God! Even the female boss of the grocery store was not paying attention to the noise.

The human voice gradually faded away with the roar of tanks, and the "Wolf Hunting Operation" officially began. This time, all the Eagle Legion was dispatched. During the two days of training, all the soldiers only mastered the German version of the 50 tactical commands and were familiar with the p35 submachine gun in their hands. The Mauser 98k was basically the same as the Zhongzheng, so there was no need to be familiar with it. All the Chinese soldiers knew their commanders, and there was no problem from regiment to battalion. As for tanks and armored vehicles, they were all operated by Germans, and trucks and motorcycles were basically Chinese soldiers.

The Flying Eagle Legion that had just formed only lasted for only two days. Rommel and Li Mo were not sure whether they could fight, but the current extremely dangerous situation forced the Flying Eagle Legion to fight, so the first battle is a crucial battle, and you must win all of them, otherwise a defeated army is a soulless army, and such a unit is useless.

Rommel's combat plan was arranged like this. The first step: set off from the Grand Collegiate Field at 2:00 tonight, and run 80 kilometers overnight. Go to the front of Jurong City. You must reach the attack position at 8:00 tomorrow morning. If the infantry is walking with both legs, the infantry's speed will not reach twelve kilometers per hour, let alone the continuous marching for six hours. This is also the reason why Japanese spies are not afraid of the Flying Eagle Legion secretly traveling to Chen Cang.

The Flying Eagle Legion is fully mechanized. The 101 Armored Division commanded by Li Mo has 510 cars, 1,300 tricycles, 96 armored vehicles, and 1,400 horse-drawn carriages (other ** troops are responsible for this transportation task.) The other two mechanized infantry divisions have also not weak mobility capabilities, totaling 2 armored vehicles, 530 motorcycles, 394 cars, and 536 horse-drawn carriages. All soldiers of the Flying Eagle Legion can be transported away at one time when fully armed, including carrying five base ammunition. Maintaining fierce battles for three weeks is not a problem. It can be said that the Flying Eagle Legion is a soldier sitting on the wheels of the car, and Li Mo and the others can completely march slowly. Of course, the mechanized troops also have disadvantages. They cannot sneak around the Japanese army quietly and then launch a fierce attack suddenly. Such a huge mechanized troops are basically impossible.

Step 2: The 103 Mechanized Infantry Division of the Flying Eagle Legion entered the position of the 74th Army at dawn to replace the defense of the 74th Army. The 102 Mechanized Infantry Division attacked from the left wing of the defense line and attacked the 6th Japanese Division in front of him. The 101 armored division commanded by Li Mo attacked from the right wing and penetrated directly into the rear of the Japanese Division. After the interweaving was in place, he turned around and launched an attack from the back of the Japanese Division.

Rommel is quite ambitious in this battle. He plans to eat the Japanese elite division at one bite at a time. It is still unknown whether Rommel's plan will be broken or not. However, this plan is very bold and even a little risky. Jiang Jieshi originally disagreed, but Rommel took out the treaty signed by Jiang Jieshi, and in the end, Jiang Jieshi had to agree with Rommel's battle plan.

Why is Rommel's combat plan very risky? In order to take down the outer defense line of Nanjing as soon as possible, Matsui Ishione dispersed his troops very much and divided them into six attacks, with one division in each route, and two remaining divisions and two detachments are on standby in Changzhou as reserves. The six routes attacked the Nanjing defense line, and each route was separated by a distance of twenty to thirty kilometers, which means there was a gap of twenty to thirty kilometers between the Japanese division and the division.

In this case, the Flying Eagle Legion can basically be easily interspersed. The front width of each division of the Japanese army attack was about three kilometers and ten kilometers deep. This is twenty square kilometers, only more than 20,000 Japanese troops, and only less than one Japanese army per square kilometer. How dispersed the Japanese division's forces are, and how arrogant the Japanese army is. The Japanese army is not stupid, including the old Japanese Ishikeshi, who are also cunning and cunning villains. Why did the Japanese army have such a formation? It is purely that the Japanese army did not take ** seriously at all. They think that even if they give ** ten thousand courage, those ** would not dare to jump out of the defense line to attack them.

**It is basically impossible to eat a Japanese division. Even if it is possible, it will take at least ten days to fight. The nearest Japanese army is thirty kilometers away. By then, the Japanese army will not eat the Japanese army, but instead they will be dumplings by the Japanese army.** Even if the weapons and equipment are given great courage, they will not dare to make such a battle arrangement. It is purely a behavior of seeking death.

When the Flying Eagle Legion marched fifty kilometers, the entire army stopped. The order given by the above was to rest on the spot. All the soldiers were not sure that they were going to fight. The battle was strictly confidential, so there was no mistake. Even the senior officials of the Republic of China only knew about it.

Some of the soldiers rested on the truck, some randomly found a ridge, wrapped it in a blanket and started to sleep. All the equipment of the Flying Eagle Legion is made of German equipment, and even the blankets are also. Of course, there is a reason why the Flying Eagle Legion stopped here...
