Chapter 421: Crossing the River

After receiving Yu Zhiqian's order, a group of soldiers slowly dived into the water.

In later generations, there may be many people who can't swim, but in this era, as long as there is a river, the children growing around are not landlubbers, in order to subsidize the family, go into the water to catch fish, more because of naughty, jumping into the river in summer, as long as they can go ashore, the water is not bad.

In the entire team, there were only a dozen people who couldn't swim, but Yu Zhiqian sent four people around them to hold them up to prevent accidents when crossing the river.

At the beginning of November, it was slightly cold, there was no large-scale warming in the world, and the outdoor temperature in Shanghai at night was about more than ten degrees, and the temperature in the water may be lower.

Yu Zhiqian put his weapon and backpack on his head, and swam forward quickly, his eyes looking around from time to time to make sure that the surrounding environment was safe.

Just swam through the middle of the Suzhou Creek, a group of Japanese patrols appeared on the opposite bank, flashlights, and began to patrol forward little by little along the riverbank.

"Get into the water!"

After Yu Zhiqian finished speaking, he retracted his whole head back into the water, and the rest of the soldiers would order one by one to pass back, and finally all the soldiers dived towards the river one by one.

"Qiangzi, hold your breath, don't be afraid to get into the water, brothers drag you, don't struggle!"

"Good!"

The soldiers who can't swim are now too frightened to move, and can only let their comrades drag themselves, after hearing the order to dive, they are even more afraid, but they dare not make big moves, they can only close their eyes and slowly dive underwater, which is the trust of their comrades.

There were about 20 Japanese patrolmen on the other side of the river, flashlights, and from time to time they swept the water, and after finding no accidents, they continued to advance.

Half a minute later, the patrol team left, and Yu Zhiqian and the others showed their heads from under the water, shook them, and continued to walk forward.

After five minutes, everyone was ashore, most of them were tired and lying by the river, the Suzhou Creek was not wide, but it was not narrow, wearing a complete set of Japanese equipment, and rifles, and it was a test for anyone to cross the river.

Not to mention that some of these soldiers can't swim at all, and it is not easy for everyone to cross the Suzhou Creek safely.

"A platoon of people, under the guard, the rest of the people, rest in place for a minute, after a minute, we will set off, everyone pour out the water in the shoes, and don't make a sound!"

A group of soldiers nodded, and began to tirelessly organize their belongings.

Shoes, hats, etc. are full of water, a group of soldiers shivering while tidying up things, there is no wind today, after going ashore, after moving their bodies a little, their body temperature is slowly warming.

After a minute of slight correction, all the soldiers stood up and began to line up, Yu Zhiqian glanced around, focusing on the shoes and some positions, and after making sure that there were no problems, he nodded with satisfaction: "Let's go!" ”

In the Sixing warehouse, Zheng Shijue led a group of wounded soldiers and was nervously arranging the defense line in the warehouse.

"Battalion commander, give me a grenade and I'll guard the national flag!"

A soldier lying on a stretcher and unable to move gently pulled Zheng Shijue, signaling that he was also useful.

"Okay, I'll send you up!"

"Battalion commander, give me one too, hehehe, I can also pull two, I have killed more than a dozen devils, two more, go down and show off with the second stunned man, the second stunned man of the dog day killed three devils before, give him a shit!"

The number of wounded soldiers was small, it was impossible to take care of everything, most of them were concentrated on the first and second floors, and there were some defenders who were wounded in the legs and had no problem firing, and they were responsible for sniping the Japanese who were charged, and they could delay as long as they could.

On the fifth floor, there were six or seven seriously wounded people gathered, sitting around the flagpole, holding grenades in their arms, leaning on each other, they were the last defenders of the Sixing warehouse, and after the devils rushed up, they would die with the devils.

An hour later, the Japanese began to attack again, similar to the previous attack, artillery fire first, more than a dozen mountain guns began to shell the Sixing warehouse, and a dozen shells fell around the Sixing warehouse.

After several days of shelling, the originally sturdy Sihang warehouse has become crumbling, and the shells fell on the wall, blowing up the bricks that were shot, and the entire floor of the Sichang warehouse was bombarded by shells with more than a dozen large holes.

On the fourth day, the devil had carried out an hour-long artillery bombardment, wanting to blow up the Sixing warehouse, but the Sixing warehouse still stood tenaciously on the bank of the Suzhou River.

"Brothers, the devil is here, put it in, go tell the fifth child, prepare flares!"

Zheng Shijue leaned on the window and looked at the attacking Japanese in the distance, shouting with all his strength, trying to make everyone hear him clearly.

After the wounded soldiers, many of them were hearing impaired, and if the voice was low, they could not hear anything at all.

"Okay!"

When a lame soldier heard this, he immediately staggered on one leg and climbed upstairs, and it was not easy to climb the stairs, so the soldier climbed up with both hands and feet.

On the roof of the building, after hearing about the injury called Lao Wu, he took out a flare from his arms, pointed it diagonally at the sky, and shot it.

"Whew!"

The sound of flares rising into the air is the last thing that all Japanese soldiers who attack at night want to hear, there is still night as a camouflage, they can quickly approach the Sixing warehouse, but after the flares are lifted into the air, they have nothing to hide, and the defenders of the Sixing warehouse can see them clearly.

"Onboard!"

A group of Japanese soldiers, with a loud roar, rushed towards the Sixing warehouse.

"Hit!"

Zheng Shijue roared, and almost everyone on the first and second floors immediately spoke.

The Japanese attacking soldiers clearly felt that the firepower had become weaker, and only three machine guns opened fire from the windows on the second floor, and the firepower on the first floor was also much weaker, and it was very easy to rush into the distance of about 50 meters from the four rows of warehouses.

Now the color of the land is no longer visible in the Sihang warehouse, they are all corpses, the ground is full of Japanese corpses, and every time the Japanese soldiers take a step forward, they are stepping on the corpses of their comrades to be able to advance.

Some of the clever soldiers would lie down in the pile of corpses when attacking, disguised as corpses to shoot, although there were flares but could not see clearly, from the third day and the fourth night, more and more Japanese soldiers used this tactic, so that the casualties of the defenders skyrocketed.
