The Fushan section of the Yangtze River is extremely wide, more than a dozen big men are divided into two shifts, taking turns to swing, and it took a full hour to finally approach the north bank, fortunately, the whole process of crossing the river is quite smooth, and there is no patrol gunboat of devils in the middle, otherwise, the consequences are really unimaginable.

"Who, who" As soon as the two small boats anchored the shore, a Japanese devil immediately jumped out of the grass by the river, but he spoke in Chinese, "password"

"Sixth son, it's me." Hei Qi recognized the devil at a glance.

"Brother Seven, it's you" The sixth son also recognized Hei Qi and shouted excitedly.

When he saw Xu Rui again, the sixth son was even more happy, and shouted: "Yingza"

Xu Rui let out a long breath, as the so-called seeing the subtleties and being able to know, saw that the guard posts of the ** battalion were placed on the side of the Yangtze River, which is enough to prove that the entire Nantong urban area is still under the control of the ** battalion, which in turn proves that the ** battalion has not been hit hard, it seems that the large-scale bombardment during the day, the devil is just bluffing.

At that moment, Xu Rui patted Liuzi's shoulder and beckoned: "Liuzi, what about your battalion deputy?"

"Our battalion deputy has just come here to check the sentry, this should be to check the guard post in the west, but it's only a few minutes away, not far, I'm going to call the battalion deputy back." The sixth son stepped forward to Xu Rui and saluted the military salute, and then ran away with the 38 big cover on his shoulder.

Hearing that the veterans were nearby, Xu Rui asked Li Hai and Hei Qi to lead Jiang Nan and Cui Jiu to the city first, while he himself stayed behind to wait for the veterans.

After a while, the veteran hurriedly walked over with a 38 big cover on his shoulder.

After seeing Xu Rui, a touch of excitement immediately surged in the depths of the veteran's eyes, but this excitement disappeared after only a flash, obviously, the veteran didn't want others to know his excitement at this moment, because it would make him weak in the eyes of others, and he didn't want to leave the impression of weakness on others.

The corners of Xu Rui's mouth immediately hooked up a faint smile.

Although the veteran covered it up well, Xu Rui was still keenly aware of it.

To be honest, Xu Rui is also very happy at the moment, because the veteran is doing a good job.

However, the next moment, the smile on the corner of Xu Rui's mouth froze again, and then he scolded the veteran: "Veteran, how did you do it, why are you still in Nantong, why are you still in Nanyong, didn't I tell you at the time, let you go directly to Dameishan after crossing the river, why don't you go?"

Xu Rui is really a little angry, all soldiers are like this, they can disobey the orders of their superiors, talk to others, and sometimes be complacent, but if any of his subordinates dare to resist his life, they will immediately burst into a rage, Xu Rui is also a soldier, and he is also not exempt from vulgarity, and he is really angry at the disobedience of veterans.

The veteran remained silent and let Xu Rui spray saliva on his face.

It wasn't until Xu Rui finished reprimanding that the veteran said lightly: "I also want to take the troops directly to Dameishan, but the little devil didn't let us rest in Nantong for a night, and the next day when we wanted to pull, we found that at least one of the devils of the wing had been outflanked from the west and north, and we couldn't go anymore." ”

Xu Rui said unrelentingly: "Why do you want to rest for a night, why don't you go directly?"

"I can't walk." The veteran replied lightly, "The brothers are all tired, and it rained all night before crossing the river, and if you don't dry your clothes, you will get sick, and when you get sick, everything will be over." Then he said neither softly nor hardly, "Since I promised you, I must bring the troops to Dameishan in their entirety." ”

Xu Rui snorted lightly, agreeing with the veteran's explanation.

However, Xu Rui also knew that what the veteran said was actually all.

The reason why the veteran did not leave, and the reason why the ** battalion stayed in Nanyong and did not leave, was because the veteran, because the officers and soldiers of the ** battalion did not want to leave him as a cheap commander, although he had only become the commander of the ** battalion for less than three days, but the more than 200 brothers of the ** battalion had already accepted him from the bottom of their hearts, trusted him, and loved him at the same time.

**The creed of the battalion is not to abandon, not to give up, he Xu Rui, as a commander, will not abandon any of his subordinates, veterans, as subordinates, how can they abandon him as a commander?

Therefore, Xu Rui can't be responsible, and any more accountability is to deny the creed of not abandoning and not giving up.

At that moment, Xu Rui snorted lightly, and said, "Tell me, what is the situation now?"

The veteran said: "This is not the place to talk, go to the headquarters." ”

At that moment, the veteran took Xu Rui to the headquarters set up in the air-raid shelter.

What surprised Xu Rui was that he saw several unfamiliar faces in the air-raid shelter, especially a big man with a height of more than two meters, which attracted Xu Rui's attention.

The veteran introduced: "Yingzuo, let me introduce you, this is the deputy of the 10,000 battalion of the 67th Army. ”

"Sixty-seventh Army" Xu Rui's gaze froze slightly, and then said, "General Wu Keren's troops"

Xu Rui has infinite respect for General Wu Keren, who died in the Battle of Songhu and died heroically, and it is countless martyrs like General Wu Keren who have supported the backbone of the Chinese nation for such martyrs, no matter what kind of honorifics are used.

Xu Rui immediately stood up and saluted the big man.

"Salute to General Wu Keren who died on the battlefield of Songhu"

"Salute all the officers and men of the Northeast Army who died on the battlefield of Songhu"

"Salute to all the officers and men of the Northeast Army who are still alive and still fighting with devils"

Accompanied by Xu Rui's slightly hoarse voice, all the officers and soldiers in the air-raid shelter stood up and saluted with their guns raised to the deputy of Wan Ying and several other officers of the Northeast Army.

Several officers of the Northeast Army hurriedly returned the salute.

Deputy Wan Ying didn't return the salute, just stared at Xu Rui deadly.

After a while, Deputy Wan Ying suddenly squatted on the ground with his head in his hands, and cried bitterly, crying while crying, he yelled at Xu Rui with tears in his eyes: "What are you talking about, what are you talking about, what are you saying these things for, you just want me to cry, you just want me to cry, you just want to make me embarrassed, don't you remember you to me, I will kill you sooner or later, kill you"

When Jiang Nan walked into the air-raid shelter, he happened to see this scene, and saw a burly man like a hill, but he cried there like a child, she wanted to laugh, but found that she couldn't laugh at all, but an inexplicable emotion shrouded her, making her feel sour, and she was not familiar with the history of the Northeast Army, and it was difficult to understand the mood of the big man at this time.

Xu Rui no longer paid attention to the big man, and set his eyes on the veteran again.

The veteran asked Niu Dazhuang to take the map and spread it out, then pointed to the map and said: "At noon today, a large army of devils with a strength of more than 2,000 people suddenly appeared in the western suburbs of Nantong. ”

Xu Rui said: "That is to say, the devils who outflanked from the northwest and two directions have at least one wing"

"At least one wing." The veteran nodded, and added, "There may even be a brigade." ”

Xu Rui's gaze wandered across the map and asked, "What about the east, have you found any devils?"

"Nope." The veteran shook his head and replied, "Just before you came, I had just inspected the guard position five miles to the east, and I didn't find any devils. ”

Xu Rui said: "The little devil is around the three and one, and he wants to drive us to the east." ”

The veteran said: "That's exactly what I guessed, after all, our combat effectiveness is there, if we fight in the streets, the little devil will be able to win, and the casualties will be very heavy, and if we can be driven out of the city and annihilate us in the field, the devil's casualties will be much smaller, after all, the devil has an absolute advantage in artillery, as well as charioteers." ”

After a pause, the veteran continued: "Moreover, except for the fact that the devil once threw an infantry squadron to launch an attack at more than twelve o'clock, he has not invested more than the squadron size to launch an attack since then, but only used artillery and aviation to bombard the urban area of Nantong indiscriminately, and the intention of intimidation is obvious. ”

Xu Rui pondered for a moment, and then said: "In this way, you first send someone to catch a few live mouths and come back, and ask which army of devils is outside."

The veteran said: "There are still achievements, and I caught more than a dozen in the afternoon." ”

Xu Rui said: "Bring two up immediately, and I will interrogate them in person." ”

The veteran turned around and waved his hand, and the two remnants turned to leave, and after a while, they escorted the two devil soldiers into the air-raid shelter, and the two devils had their nostrils facing the sky and looked arrogant.

It's true, they've all been captured, and there's nothing to be arrogant about

Xu Rui walked up to one of the devils and asked in Japanese, "What's your name?"

The devil snorted from his nostrils, his eyes looked at the sky, and he ignored Xu Rui.

The corners of Xu Rui's mouth hooked up a cold smile, and said: "You'd better be smarter, you can answer whatever I ask you, otherwise, I promise you will regret it, definitely"

"Yagayalu." But the devil scolded, "The imperial army will not give in to the pig." ”

"Yo Xi, I want your mental will to be as strong as your mouth." Xu Rui smiled fiercely, and then reached out and patted lightly on the devil's body, the devil didn't know what Xu Rui meant at first, but soon, he felt a piercing pain from the place where Xu Rui was slapped just now, and quickly spread to the eight veins of his limbs
