"Understood, Commander!" Zhang Dabiao nodded and said in a condensed voice, and then waved his hand to signal a staff officer beside him to deploy immediately.

Li Yunlong began to direct the various troops to board the ships, and since most of them were locomotive ships, each ship carried at least 30 to 50 troops.

After a simple calculation, Li Yunlong found that it was not a problem to cross the river almost the whole army across the river at one time.

It's just that of course it can't be, Li Yunlong ordered everyone to go down, and the infantry crossed the river, captured the enemy's river defense position on the south bank, and controlled the wharf on the south bank.

Wait until all the infantry has passed, and all the horses will be able to carry them over.

Otherwise, it is impossible for people and horses to cross the river at one time.

What's more, Wang Chengzhu's artillery regiment needed to deploy artillery positions on the north bank, and it was possible to bombard the two Type 92 infantry guns in the Guizi River defense position on the south bank at any time, so as not to be threatened by the enemy's artillery fire on the south bank.

However, Li Yunlong still made a deployment, and first ordered a battalion of Duan Peng's special forces to quietly cross the river in advance. Taking advantage of the cover of night, Duan Peng's special forces first crossed the river and went around the flank of the enemy's river defense position and its back, and then dealt with the enemy troops in the river defense position.

According to the information obtained after the interrogation of the devils guarding Chenqiao Port who Duan Peng led the people to capture, the devils on the other side only had the strength of a squadron.

Although there were three heavy machine guns and six light machine guns, it was not a problem to block the center of the river with firepower.

But for Duan Peng's special forces, one battalion of special forces is enough to crush the strength of a squadron of Devil's River defense.

So, Li Yunlong directly ordered Duan Peng: "You cross the river first and solve the enemy's river defense position on the south bank." If you succeed, shoot a flare at the North Shore! If we succeed, we will be able to quietly cross the Yellow River before the day comes, and the whole army will be near Kaifeng! ”。

"Guaranteed mission, division commander." Duan Peng said in a condensed voice.

Li Yunlong nodded and ordered Duan Peng to act immediately.

The speed of action of one battalion of special forces, plus the fact that there were five mortars with the flotilla as artillery cover. With the strength of the special forces trained by Duan Peng, crossing the river should not be a problem.

Moreover, Li Yunlong's front room has also been to Kaifeng, and there has not changed much, so there should be no problem in crossing the river from here to the river defense position of the devils on the other bank.

After all, what the devil didn't expect was that Li Yunlong and others would suddenly appear here.

In terms of the situation that the little devil is gathering and attacking Zhongtiao Mountain at this time, at this time, eastern and northern Henan are already considered to be the rear of the devil.

The little devil would not have thought that Li Yunlong would actually lead his troops to attack the south for 800 miles, regardless of the fact that the base area was besieged and blocked by 200,000 imperial troops, and he would once again engage in a routine of mobile warfare.

At this moment, Li Yunlong nervously and orderly arranged for his troops to board the boat, ready to cross the river and storm to the south bank at any time.

At this time, on the other side of Chenqiao River Port, on the south bank, the Devil River defense position guarded the south bank port wharf on the other side of Chenqiao River Port.

The division headquarters of the 35th Division of the Japanese Army is stationed in Kaifeng, and the importance of the wharf on the south bank of the north is still clear to the devils.

Therefore, at the wharf on the south bank of the Chenqiao River Port, the Japanese army deployed a squadron of more than 200 people, three heavy machine guns, six light machine guns, two Type 92 infantry guns and three mortars as the defenders of the river defense port to guard the port wharf.

It's just that the upstream and downstream sections of the Yellow River between Kaifeng and Chenqiao are already under the control of the river defense fleet of the little devils, and the battle of Zhongtiao Mountain is launched, and the section of the Yellow River flowing through Henan Province is basically controlled by the devils.

Therefore, at this time, the defenders of the Devil's River defense position on the other side of Chenqiao River Port were actually lax, and they were the same as the Devil Defenders of Chenqiao River Port. I didn't expect that Li Yunlong would lead his army to attack south for 800 miles, preparing to stir up devils in eastern and northern Henan.

At this time, Duan Peng received the order and boarded the ship from the Chenqiao River Port Wharf before the main force of the army, and more than ten locomotives and ships sounded and detoured downstream to the wharf on the opposite bank.

Otherwise, he rushed to the dock on the other side in a daze, no matter how unrelenting the devils of the river defense position on the south bank were, and the roar of the engines of the locomotive and ship, it still woke up the devils of the river defense.

Sure enough, Duan Peng commanded the fleet and sailed at least two kilometers downstream before charging and landing on the south shore!

At this time, it was still about five o'clock in the morning, patrolling the Yellow River flowing through the Henan Provincial Section, and the inland river patrol fleet of the devils had disappeared, and it was estimated that they had anchored and rested at their respective ports and wharves. I almost didn't expect that a large number of people would cross the river.

Duan Peng crossed the river smoothly with the fleet and directly ordered the fleet to return to Chenqiao River Port.

Then, Duan Peng led the soldiers of the special forces to sneak all the way, and accidentally met three devil teams patrolling along the river on the way.

However, they were all quietly resolved. After all, these patrol devil squads are almost always two people, or four or five people, and when they start their work, they are not the opponents of the special forces who have disappeared into the darkness.

"Captain, it's here!" After walking for half an hour, Duan Peng and the soldiers of the special forces rushed to the bushes on the side of the port wharf guarded by the Japanese river defense positions on the other side of the Chenqiao River Port and hid in a low voice.

Duan Peng nodded, took the binoculars and observed for two minutes, "It depends on the situation, it is consistent with the information from the interrogation of the devil captives we caught." The devils at the river port dock on the south bank had only one squadron, light and heavy machine guns and mortars, and two artillery pieces could be seen clearly. In this way, the first and second teams are on the left wing, the third and fourth teams are on the right wing, and the fifth team is in the center. The brothers heard it clearly, and they all dealt with it with bayonets, trying not to get into a firefight with the devils. ”

"Understood, Captain." The captains of several squads all nodded and whispered.

Duan Peng waved his hand and said, "Action!" Above! ”。

I saw Duan Peng's order, and all the soldiers of the special forces followed Duan Peng's command, and the two wings made a detour to first solve the devil sentries guarding the periphery!

"Puff, puff!!"

The special forces soldier holding the dagger directly and neatly cut the throat of the vigilant devil soldier, and then waved his hand to signal safety.

"Up!"

Duan Peng made a gesture, and all the special forces soldiers came up one after another.

At this time, most of the devil soldiers of the Japanese squadron guarding the dock on the south bank were sleeping in tents, and only a few sentries were alert.

They didn't realize at all that they were in the rear security area, and they would actually be raided by Li Yunlong's special forces!

Sure enough, after eliminating the sentinels on the perimeter, the ghost soldiers who slept in the tent, and the special forces soldiers who were infiltrated in their sleep one by one, quietly solved them with daggers!

Without firing a single shot, Duan Peng still couldn't believe it, and actually used a dagger to solve the Devil's River defenders in the south bank of the river port!

"Give the division commander a signal, you can cross the river! Safe! Duan Peng looked at the devil who was killed, came back to his senses and immediately said to a special forces soldier!

"Yes, Captain!"
