Zhang Jun did not hesitate to issue the order, asking Zhang Zhizhong to request the Nanjing Ministry of Civil Affairs to implement it immediately. Zhang Jun's second order was to mobilize cars. The 74th Army now has more than 1,000 cars and more than 1,000 horse-drawn carriages, all of which were mobilized.

To participate in national defense projects, cars from other military and state units are also included in the call. In a word, all cars and carriages in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, as long as they are public-owned, are all included in the call.

The third is to purchase cement and steel bars. Zhang Jun has also thought about inviting public tenders and handing it over to a company. Such a large project requires a huge amount of cement and steel bars, and no company can afford it.

A group of people were arranged as soon as they arrived. Fifteen days later, the people finally arrived, with a total of 900,000 people and 300,000 people on each line. The penalty for corvee exemption reached 6 million yuan, and the project funds reached 25 million yuan.

Yuan, it seems that there will be absolutely no problems once this project is completed.

The materials have almost been purchased, and the national defense project has officially started. The three defense fortification lines are full of chants, cars, and the creak of carriages. There is a lot of people and bustling traffic, and Zhang Jun puts all his German

All the staff officers were sent out, and Gendarmerie Captain Walter Schellenberg led the Gendarmerie around like hunting dogs, not even letting go of the food expense accounts at each construction site. There was a lot of oil and water there, but there was no

People dare to corrupt.

The gendarmerie can arrest him directly. Once the evidence is verified, congratulations to the corrupt criminal, eat a peanut, and then report it to the King of Hell.

Zhang Jun himself spent time at various construction sites every day, while Zhang Zhizhong was responsible for liaison and coordination. When there were major events, the radio station would call. Along with Zhang Jun, there was a German walkie-talkie radio station, which was the kind that could directly make calls. At that time, it was

It is relatively advanced, but German tanks and aircraft have such configurations.

The highway from Shanghai to the national defense line was expanded once, from the original two-car to four-lane. The traffic is still flowing continuously. The cement, steel bars and other materials purchased from Shanghai are continuously sent to various construction sites. All the migrant workers who participated in the construction

They are also very positive, because no one dares to embezzle the rations of migrant workers. There are still more than a dozen heads on display! Of course those heads are the foremen. If they want to embezzle and deduct rations, Zhang Jun will kill him.

It's as simple as that. All the account books are checked every month. There is no chance for corruption. The living expenses are three silver dollars. Working as a long-term laborer in the countryside only costs two silver dollars per month. How can we not let these migrant workers work hard?

Because Zhang Jun is rushing to meet the construction deadline, all the materials are imported or domestically produced. As long as the quality is acceptable and the price is reasonable, anyone will be accepted. If the labor is sufficient, the materials are sufficient, and the construction drawings are available, then the construction speed will be rocket-speed.

, then spending money is like running water.

China is vigorously building new defense lines outside Shanghai and Nanjing. This time, the head of the German instructors group personally presided over the construction, which allowed Japan to send its best spies. Japan also sent spies to take photos of the previous defense lines.

After studying a large number of photos, all the Japanese generals believed that those were not fortifications, but just mounds of earth that were not even as good as a "pig pen".

This time Japan also dispatched a large number of spies, and at the same time established a complete file for Zhang Jun and sent it to Japanese General Matsui Iwane:

Name: Zhang Jun

Gender: Male

Graduation school: United States Military Academy at West Point

Position: Colonel of the SS, leader of the dispatched Chinese military instructor group.

Main relationships:

Father: Zhang Wei, a fire businessman.

Mother: Wang Yuhe, the daughter of the president of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Chamber of Commerce.

Because Zhang Weiguo had helped the German head of state when he caught a cold, he had a close relationship with the German head of state. Hitler himself was very fond of Zhang Jun.

Father-in-law: Krupp, owner of Krupp Company.

Wife: Avril Lavigne, Krupp's only daughter.

When Matsui Iwane read Zhang Jun's resume, he had to lament that this guy had a good life. Almost all the good things happened to him, because Japan hoped to form an alliance with Germany, but Hitler himself despised Japan very much, so

The alliance has been delayed, but Japan has been working hard to promote it. Therefore, methods such as assassination cannot be used on Zhang Jun, and they cannot be used.

Although Japan's senior leaders are paying attention to the defense lines in Shanghai, Japan has no plans to go to war with China in Shanghai. It is not an ideal battlefield for Japan to choose. Japan's tactical literacy is still very high. Don't take it for granted.

Japan thinks that he is a pig-like idiot. If he does, he will be close to failure. Japan's strategic literacy is very poor. In other words, Japan is strong in tactics but less of a strategist. He is short-sighted and always

Driven by fanatical beliefs, it is difficult for this kind of country or people to achieve great things.

The order issued by General Matsui Iwane was: "Continue to pay close attention to China's national defense fortifications."

That's it for one sentence, because Japan has no intention to open a station in Shanghai and China from top to bottom. First, Shanghai is an international city, and there are many concessions of the great powers there. Opening a station in Shanghai will definitely infringe on the interests of the great powers, and Japan

It is a resource-scarce country, and many strategic materials need to be imported. If the great powers embargo, Japan will soon be out of rice. Everyone at the top of Japan has set their sights on North China.

Five months, Zhang Jun stayed at the national defense fortification line for five full months. His originally fair face has now turned into a wheat color, and the previous weakness has disappeared. He is now stronger, sunny and handsome. Among them, Zhang Jun's

His parents also returned to China and helped John go to Sichuan to build various factories. After five months of vigorous transportation, Jewish businessmen all over the world were fully supporting the Jewish exodus in Europe, spending huge amounts of money and mobilizing countless people.

Unknown ships, more than 5 million people and a large amount of factory equipment from all over Europe were transferred to Sichuan, because the Yangtze River has a flood season from March to September, and ships with 10,000 tons can go directly to Chongqing. Zhang Jun hopes that China will be the center of the Jewish people.

The first step towards the desire to enter the industrial age as soon as possible with the input of science and technology has been realized.

Zhang Jun was so busy that he didn't even meet his parents. On the construction site where he was working continuously, Avril stayed in Germany because she was pregnant. Zhang Jun's hard work was also fruitful. July 15, 1937

The new defense line has been officially completed, but in North China, the "July 7th Incident" has broken out, marking that China has entered a full-scale war with Japan.

August 7, 1937, Nanjing National Defense Conference Room:

＜Concerning Central Military Preparations＞Meeting;

He Yingqin: "All the ** troops included in the Anti-Japanese War sequence include about 100 divisions in the front line, about 80 divisions in the reserve army, and about 50 divisions in Hebei." The main battlefields include Hebei, northern Shandong, and southern Hebei as the first theater.

.However, He Yingqin believed that there were difficulties in starting a war: "Financial expenditures have increased, firearms and bullets can only be supplied for six months, the air force is insufficient, and defense fortifications have been completed, etc."

Chiang Kai-shek: "The selection of Shanghai as the second battlefield was based on a field strategic judgment. Economically, militarily, and politically, the Japanese army would inevitably follow the Japanese actions, so they took the initiative to launch an offensive against the Japanese army in Shanghai. Foreign consultant of the National Government

Duan Na once suggested: "In the war against Japan, we must first eliminate the Japanese garrisons in Shanghai, Hankou, and Qingdao, and then use all our strength to deal with the Peking-Tianjin war."

Yao Cong, Acting Minister of the Management Department of the Military Commission: "It has five advantages: convenient command, easy concentration, and convenient supply. The many harbors in the south of the Yangtze River are not conducive to the enemy; it is easy to influence the perceptions of the great powers and get more help."

Therefore, the 1937 "National Defense Operation Plan" stipulates: "At the beginning of the war, the enemy forces in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River should first use all their strength to occupy Shanghai. In any case, the enemy forces in Shanghai must be destroyed as the core of the entire operation, and then directly

Prevent the enemy's landing along the river coast... When necessary, retreat to the default position one by one, and ensure the line between Zhapu, Jiaxing, Wuxi, and Jiangyin to consolidate the capital."

As a colonel, Zhang Jun was not qualified to participate in a meeting of this level. It was impossible for a German colonel to attend China's highest-level combat meeting, but Zhang Jun and Rommel still worked hard to formulate a huge strategic plan.

, which was to perfect the battle flag drill conducted by Zhang Jun and Rommel on the ship and make it even more perfect.

After Zhang Jun handed over the battle plan, there was no reply. You, a colonel, actually want to command the Chairman and his large group of first- and second-level generals. That is simply impossible. You are a graduate of West Point Military Academy.

, the young boy who had never done anything was so fanciful. Jiang Zhongzheng did not reject Zhang Jun face to face, which was already a great honor. Of course, the battle plan was also locked in the safe.

The wheel of history continues to roll forward according to its inertia. Chiang Zhongzheng did not adopt his own plan, nor did he dispatch Zhang Jun's German weapons army. First, Zhang Jun had the power to command and formulate combat plans alone, which means Zhang Jun

During this year, you can refuse any combat orders from Chiang Kai-shek. Secondly, Chiang Kai-shek is not willing to drag this newly trained German armored army into street fighting in Shanghai. It is the only armored army in China, and it is one of the treasures.

Baby, don't use it easily.

Although Chiang Kai-shek rejected Zhang Jun's battle plan, he still adopted some of Zhang Jun's opinions and deployed fifteen local divisions on the newly built national defense fortifications. The combat capability was relatively poor and the firepower configuration was also poor, which worried Zhang Jun.

Endless.

On August 11, the Japanese army asked China to remove the Shanghai security team and its fortifications. At the same time, it used more than 20 warships to escort transport ships to replenish military supplies to Shanghai, and mobilized the Japanese Marine Corps stationed in Shanghai (about 3,200 people) and local soldiers and volunteers.

Mission. Yu Hongjun believed: "On the one hand, Japan agrees to resolve this case through diplomacy, but on the other hand, it threatens to increase troops, which is completely inconsistent." At 21:00, the National Military Commission ordered Zhang Zhizhong to "besiege Shanghai." The Japanese Consulate in Shanghai accused China*

The Japanese troops violated the 128th Shanghai Armistice Agreement. Shanghai Mayor Yu Hongjun sternly refuted it. British, American, French and Italian diplomats asked the National Government to list Shanghai as an undefended city. The Japanese were originally scheduled to start the attack before dawn on the 13th, but

As the British and American envoys in China were mediating, China ordered Zhang Zhizhong on the front line to suspend the offensive in order to take into account international audio and video: "We hope to wait for orders and avoid conflicts between small units."

On August 15th, China ordered general mobilization, and Shanghai-Hangzhou was designated as the third war zone. Admiral Gu Zhutong was appointed as deputy commander of the war zone. The combat policy was "the war zone aims to consolidate the capital and maintain the economic source, quickly encircle and annihilate the enemies near Shanghai, and break them."

"An attempt to land along the coast and along the river". On August 18, Chiang Kai-shek ordered the appointment of Chen Cheng as the commander-in-chief of the third theater of the front enemy, which aroused Zhang Zhizhong's dissatisfaction: "Chen Cixiu has too little qualifications, how can he command me!" Although Feng Yuxiang was directly subordinate to the two of them.

Boss, but unable to reconcile the friction between the two.
