Chapter 1: The Old Man (3)

Eleven people swam quietly out of the water in three groups.

The southern river, even if it is a small river, is full of water, and if you swim to the middle of the river, you can't step on it to the end.

Xiao Linghu and Yizhimei took the lead, lined up on both sides of the bamboo raft and gently pushed the bamboo raft from this side of the river to the east, the speed was very slow, just for fear of making a noise and attracting the attention of the devil.

Obviously, the attention of the devils was not on the river at this time, they encountered the attack of the opposite **, and were going all out to strafe their positions with machine guns, blocking the road ahead.

In the dark night, because there is no artillery support, for the devils, the fight is also very tense, for fear that there will be ** rushing up to fight with them.

In fact, in terms of the weapons of China and Japan at this time, the long-range firepower is naturally still higher than that of the Japanese, but if it hits within 50 meters and the short-range firepower is powerful, because the Japanese are not equipped with submachine guns such as flower machine guns, they still suffer very much. For the Japanese, because they were troubled by the islanders and did not have so many resources, all the original war materials needed to be imported from overseas, and weapons such as submachine guns felt that they were a waste of bullets, so they did not equip them. But because of this, the Japanese soldiers had a strong shooting ability, and their individual combat ability was much higher than that of the Chinese soldiers.

Of course, if the distance of 50 meters is over, and it really has to fight in close combat, and the victory is determined by fighting bayonets, then it is the world of the Japanese again.

The Japanese soldiers, in terms of their skills and abilities, as well as their physique and strength, were beyond the reach of the Chinese soldiers. Due to the malnutrition of the Chinese soldiers, they only eat two meals a day, and one meal is porridge, and most of them are actually just a character who waives the flag and shouts, and they only rely on the large number of people, so they can bluff people.

Pushing the bamboo raft cautiously forward, Xiao Linghu and Yizhimei only showed one head on the water. According to Xiao Linghu's plan, they carefully crossed the outer defense line area of the devil on the opposite side of the devil's river, walked forward another two hundred meters, away from the place where the devil could see, and then crossed the river. The surface of this river is also more than ten meters wide, and ordinary people can easily swim over, but after all, there are enemies on the other side of the river, as long as they make a sound, they will inevitably be discovered by the devils, in that case, they want to sneak around the back of the devils, I am afraid that it will be even more difficult.

The surface of the river was dark, and the devils could not see the situation on the river clearly, but their soldiers in charge of guarding would take flashlights to shine back and forth on the river from time to time.

Despite the attack on the front of the trench, the devil's guards still did not evacuate, maybe he heard something, he immediately turned on the flashlight again, and shone towards the river.

But when the pillar of light moved over, Xiao Linghu and Yizhimei both subconsciously stopped, and at the same time plunged their heads into the water.

The Japanese soldier swept over the river with the aperture of the flashlight, and he saw the bamboo raft docked on the other side of the river, with a pile of straw piled on top of the bamboo raft, which of course Xiao Linghu deliberately asked the team members to carry over in order to cover up the items on the bamboo raft.

Meng Fanwei, Shunzi and the other team members in the starting position in the distance were all sweating in their hands, they were afraid that the devil would find their captain and Yizhimei. Of course, they know that the people who push the bamboo rafts over are the most dangerous, but they are naked and empty-handed, and it is easy to hide in the river and swim over, and they can swim one or two hundred meters away with a single dive.

The Japanese soldier didn't think about it anywhere else, the light and shadow swept over the bamboo raft, shone on the river in the distance, and then withdrew and extinguished.

Xiao Linghu and Yizhimei poked their heads out of the water again, looked at each other in the dark, smiled, took a breath, and continued to push the bamboo raft slowly forward.

The weather in mid-September is almost late autumn, and the night has become cooler, especially in the river, which is icy and cold.

It's only a few minutes, but to everyone, it's like hours. Especially for Xiao Linghu and Yizhimei, these two people who are leading the way. They no longer felt how noisy the gunfire was outside, as if they hadn't heard it, and now they were afraid to arrive at the secret assembly point on the other side of the river sooner.

There, it is the northwest corner of Luodian Town, but there is still a distance of fifty or sixty meters from the farthest house, there is a tall willow tree by the river, and the willow shade is a natural cover in the dark night, even if there is a devil's sentinel in the northwest corner of Luodian to take care of it, but you can't see this place.

The bamboo raft crossed the river smoothly, and stopped under the shade of the tall willow tree, and the two men went ashore cautiously, although they were still bare-bottomed, but they were not in a hurry to get dressed, but looked around to make sure that there was no danger, and then returned to the shore, tied the bamboo raft to the roots, and then returned to the bamboo raft, and rummaged through the messy straw for their clothes.

The second group of personnel was four people, and they set off after Xiao Linghu and Yizhimei set off, five minutes apart, because at this time, they didn't hear any other sounds, which means that Xiao Linghu and Yizhimei had arrived at their destination safely.

After Xiao Linghu and Yizhimei dried their bodies with towels and put on their clothes, the second group of people just arrived, and then the four people of the fourth group also arrived smoothly.

All the people didn't speak, silently sorted out their clothes, and put them on again, Xiao Linghu personally inspected the bamboo row again, and made sure that he didn't leave anything behind, so he waved his hand, and took this line of eleven people, including himself, along the river bank, cat waist, and quietly approached the outer trench of the devil in the west.

They were wearing the devil military uniforms brought to them by Hu Congjun, and in order to show that they were different from the real devils, Xiao Linghu asked each member of the team to tie a white towel on their belts. This is also what he learned from Ii Shaosa. It's just that Jing Yi Shaozo is obviously too stupid and asks people to tie a towel around their necks, which is not yet so cold weather, which can't help but make people suspicious.

I can already see a trench in front, this is a traffic trench of the devils, the three trenches that connect the front of the devil's defense line, there is no place to hide at this time, the devils in order to facilitate inspection and shooting, all the objects on the ground near the defense line, front and back, not even a single tree remained, which is one of the reasons why the 65th Regiment and the 61st Regiment were not able to take this defense line.

After thinking about it for a while, Xiao Linghu took the lead and jumped into the devil's traffic trench, and the team members behind also jumped in.
