The Qinhe River in the north and south Kongtan area is open, nearly 50 meters long, as for how deep it is, no one has tried it, anyway, the two elephants can drown.

On weekdays, the weather is clear, and if you want to cross this somewhat turbulent river, in addition to the necessary rafts, you must also have a veteran who is familiar with the water.

What's more, today's torrential rain is pouring, and the entire river is covered by a rain curtain, even if it was close to half past five in the morning when Han Feng and his party crossed the river, the sky was already numb and bright, but they still couldn't see the river clearly, and where there were dark waves, it was even more difficult for the naked eye to detect.

Fortunately, the torrential rain only fell for a short time, and it did not have time to help the abuse, making the already rapid river turbulent.

As soon as the team reached the bank of the Qin River, one of the soldiers beside him almost slipped into the water because he could not see the ground clearly under the hazy rain curtain, and stepped on the dirt on the side slope.

Fortunately, Han Feng was quick and dragged the soldier back.

"Thank you, Captain!" Cold sweat mixed with rain flowed down, and the little soldier looked at the turbulent river, and his heart palpitated.

Han Feng smiled: "Scared? ”

"No, I'm not afraid...... I'm not afraid of death, I'm just afraid...... Fear of water. ”

"Landlubbers?"

The little warrior smiled wryly and nodded.

Only then did Han Feng realize that he seemed to have overlooked a problem, if he wanted to forcibly cross the river, the soldiers who acted had better understand some water.

Needless to say, even if Li Hai, who was originally a landlubber, was choked a few times during the special training of swimming, and after being poured a few stomachs of water, he was gradually thrown into the river, and he was like a white strip in the waves.

However, the 56 fighters who have only been incorporated into the commando team are not necessarily.

Sure enough, "those who can swim stand up", after Han Feng gave the order, only 30 of the 56 people stood up, and the number of people in the first batch of actions was reduced by half.

The tool for crossing the river is a bamboo raft, more than a dozen arm-thick bamboos are connected one by one, compared with solid wood, bamboo rafts are more buoyant, light in weight, and easy to carry.

Long before crossing the river this time, Han Feng instructed the soldiers to make a lot of bamboo rafts, and trained many comrades who rowed and supported the paddle.

This time, as the first batch of troops to cross the river, Han Feng and his entourage brought a total of eight bamboo rafts, but even if there were so many bamboo rafts, it might take more than an hour for more than 2,000 people to cross the river all.

"Signal soldiers, political commissars, have they arrived at the place?"

Han Feng asked as he instructed the soldiers to throw the bamboo raft into the river.

"Report to the head of the regiment, the political commissar, they have arrived near the north and south Kongtan."

"Okay, then it's our turn to set off, Duan Peng, let's go up in the first batch, prepare the rope, the water is turbulent, let's cross the river on a bamboo raft, and after bringing the rope over, nail it with wooden stakes on both sides."

"Yes."

Duan Peng answered, hesitated, and the rain ran down his cheeks, as if converging into a small stream, "Regiment commander, just let me go to the advance troops, you just wait on the bank for me to pull the rope, and then follow the team behind to cross the river!" ”

Han Feng was happy, "You kid are afraid that something will happen to Lao Tzu?" ”

The torrential rain was raging more and more, and the communication between Duan Peng and Han Feng, there was no need to shout at this time, they couldn't hear each other clearly.

Duan Peng shouted: "Commander, when I was leaving, the brothers all found me, and the brothers said, we must not let the head of the regiment lose a single hair, I have promised it, you just have a little trouble, and I can't live!" ”

Han Feng laughed, "You kid, can Lao Tzu have an accident so easily?" Don't forget, you stinky boys are taught to swim by Lao Tzu, don't talk nonsense, time is pressing, carry out the order, hurry up! ”

"Alas!"

Duan Peng also knew Han Feng's temper and no longer refuted.

The first group set off on a total of four bamboo rafts, bringing the assault team and the 30 fighters who were newly incorporated into the assault team at one time.

As soon as the bamboo raft reached the river, although Han Feng chose a river with a relatively gentle current, it was still rushed downstream.

At this time, it was laborious and thankless to try to stop the tendency of the bamboo raft to drift downstream, so Han Feng just ordered to stabilize the hull of the boat and row hard to the opposite shore.

On the shore of departure, the soldiers had already fixed a wooden stake, on which were tied two finger-thick ropes, and the other end of the rope was wrapped around Zhou Daniu's arm, and as the bamboo raft advanced, Zhou Daniu kept releasing the rope.

This is the first group to cross the river, and after the bamboo raft arrives at the shore, Han Feng and the others will also set a wooden stake on the opposite bank and tie the rope to the stake.

Then, by pulling the rope on the advancing shore by a warrior on a bamboo raft, the traction is increased, and the hull is controlled to move forward quickly.

So the hardest part is the first time to cross the river.

Especially in this kind of rainstormy weather, everything around is noisy, and the bright sky does not give the soldiers much security.

Fortunately, before crossing the river, the reconnaissance company did a very sufficient reconnaissance work, and it was clear where the Japanese troops on the east bank were stationed, how many troops they had, and how far away they were from the valley where the soldiers crossed the river.

It's just a squadron that is not yet formed, and even if it is a puppet army with one more squadron, it will be three or four hundred people at best.

With this rainstorm as a cover, in Han Feng's opinion, it is not very difficult to take this east coast position.

…… The bamboo raft resembles a floating duckweed, flowing down with the current.

At the head of the bamboo raft, Liu Zheng and Li Hai were responsible for paddling, and at the tail of the bamboo raft, there were Zhu Dazhi and Xu Jingyou rowing, and the two wings of the bamboo raft were also arranged, and everyone worked together to keep the bamboo raft smooth.

Han Feng was squeezed in the center, but he was idle, this kind of trivial matter naturally no longer needs his command, after so many battles, the commandos have grown rapidly, almost everyone can be in charge, if they can't even control a bamboo raft, then this assault should be disbanded.

Han Feng paid more attention to the other three bamboo rafts.

For safety, the other bamboo rafts are also arranged with veteran commandos, and there is no danger.

The huge pressure of the crowd pressed the bamboo raft into the water, with the waves, up and down, the already turbid river, in the reflection of the bright sky, mixed with the continuous tilt of the torrential rain, looks like a devouring torrent, looking at it for a long time, it makes people dizzy and frightened.

Han Feng yelled, "Don't stare at the river, look into the distance, everyone work hard, and you will almost reach the other side." ”

The turbulent water swirls and constantly laps on the bamboo raft, and the stirring waves bloom in an instant, like a flash in the pan, and disappear in a blink of an eye.

The bamboo raft has been rowed for the most part, under the impact of the current, the horizontal distance is dozens of meters away, and the rope pulled out is soaked in the river water, and everyone is puffing up their strength and rowing harder......
