In the Wangcun camp, Zhang Lei held a meeting of the team leader and above.

Zhang Lei said: "Chao Tianwang has openly surrendered to the enemy, there is a contradiction between Chao Tianwang and Sakai Dazuo, I want to make the contradiction between them more intense, we can catch the medicine according to the prescription, according to the last method, and get him again." ”

Hu Taohua smiled and said: "We have helped Wang Qiang so much, he is now strong and strong, and we must let him participate as well." ”

Zhang Lei smiled and said, "If you have any ideas, just say it." ”

Hu Taohua said: "Let Wang Qiang's people disguise themselves as Chao Tianwang's people to ambush the transport convoy on the road and the transport boats in the Kangqiao River, they are many and have heavy weapons, after they fight this battle, they can seize weapons and ammunition, for them, there is only good, no harm." ”

Zhang Lei looked at the others, and everyone else nodded.

Zhang Leixiao said to Wang Yueying: "Then you can contact Wang Qiang and ask him to personally bring troops to ambush the Japanese invaders." ”

Wang Yueying said yes loudly.

Zhang Lei said: "Since we want to make things bigger this time, then let's make it bigger, I want to seize a gunboat from the Japanese devils and raid the fleet of the Chaotianwang." ”

Hu Taohua was shocked and said, "This can't be done! It's too dangerous, and none of us can shoot a gunboat! ”

Zhang Lei smiled and said, "I'll open it." ”

Hu Taohua shook her head and said, "How is it possible?" ”

Zhang Lei said: "Don't worry! I said it would be opened. This operation must hurt both sides, and after a while, a second step will be much more effective. ”

Wang Yueying asked, "Do you want to assassinate the Chaotian King?" ”

Zhang Lei nodded and said: "Of course, if he defects to the Japanese, he is a big traitor, who will he kill if he doesn't kill him?" ”

Wang Yueying said: "Do you want to call Stationmaster Gu?" ”

Zhang Lei nodded and said: "This operation is too important, we are gnawing hard bones, one more person and one more strength." ”

Wang Yueying asked, "Where does he go to find us?" ”

After Zhang Lei thought about it, he said, "By the Yangtze River." ”

Wang Yueying nodded and said, "Okay, I'll contact Stationmaster Wang Qianggu now." ”

In the reed shed of the Yangtze River tidal flat, Zhang Lei, Hu Taohua, Lin Qi, Wang Yueying, Gu Wei and Wang Qiang held a meeting.

After Zhang Lei explained the plan, he asked Wang Qiang: "Are you sure that the battle will be resolved within half an hour?" ”

Wang Qiang said: "It's no problem for an hour, I will send people to ambush on both sides to block the incoming enemy." Once I succeed, I will transport the seized supplies. The sky is high and the birds are allowed to fly, and they are far away. ”

Zhang Lei nodded and said: "You do it first, and after you succeed, in two days, we will do it again, giving Chao Tianwang the illusion that the Japanese are taking revenge on him." ”

Wang Qiang nodded and said, "Okay!" That's it, I'll deploy it right away. ”

After Wang Qiang left, Zhang Lei said to Gu Wei: "Brother Gu, this time we are the first to capture the Japanese gunboats, and the task is very heavy!" ”

Gu Wei smiled and said, "Brother Zhang, you called me here, if I don't go into battle shirtless, won't I make you look down on me?" Don't worry, isn't it just to seize the gunboat! I'll do it! ”

Zhang Lei smiled and said, "Okay! We don't need too many people on the gunboat, ten people are about the same. The others brought supplies and moved in the direction of Wang Qiang's camp, and we will catch up after we have completed our mission. ”

Gu Wei said: "I agree! ”

Two days later, the ships and car convoys of the Japanese devils on the Kangqiao River and the road were attacked simultaneously by armed men in civilian clothes. These militants kept saying that they were the people of the Chaotianwang and that they wanted to retaliate against the Japanese for the attack on the Chaotianwang's ships.

When these armed men in civilian clothes succeeded, they left a few wounded alive and disappeared into the night.

After receiving the report of the attack on the transport car and the convoy, Dazuo was furious, and personally took an ironclad car overnight to inspect the scene.

The wounded reported that it was the people of the Chaotian King who did it.

Osa shook his head vigorously and gritted his teeth.

After Dazuo returned, he immediately reported to the division commander Liuhe Song Eryang and asked if he wanted to send troops to encircle and suppress the Chaotian King, and the division commander Liuhe Song Eryang was so angry that he almost vomited blood, and told Dazuo to be patient for the time being, and he immediately contacted the Wang puppet government.

Wang's puppet government was stunned by the news that Chao Tianwang had attacked the Japanese devil convoy, and sent a telegram to Chao Tianwang overnight to ask the reason.

Unexpectedly, the king of Chao Tianwang was sleeping in the same bed with a beautiful woman, and the general in charge of the telegram did not dare to disturb him, and the telegram was not handed over to the king of Chao until the morning of the next day.

After the Chaotian King saw it, he was blinded all of a sudden, when did he let his subordinates attack the Japanese convoy? Nothing!

Chao Tianwang said to the general: "Reply, this must be the convoy attacked by the New Fourth Army, and this matter has nothing to do with me." ”

Wang's puppet government sent a telegram to Liuhe Song Eryang again, saying that Chao Tianwang did not order the attack, and it must have been done by the New Fourth Army.

When Ozo received the telegram, it was already the afternoon of the next day. Dazuo didn't believe that it was the New Fourth Army who did it, but Chao Tianwang insisted that it was the New Fourth Army who did it, and Sakai Dazuo could only suffer a loss. He ordered that from now on, road and Kangqiao River transportation must be carried out during the day to prevent unforeseen incidents.

A few days later, late one night, Zhang Lei, Gu Wei and Lynch took Zhou Yong and Zhao Sixi's team to wear Japanese military uniforms, swaggered to the dock, entered a gunboat, and after killing all the Japanese devils on the gunboat, Zhang Lei drove the gunboat to the waters managed by Chaotianwang.

The other gunboats of the Japanese devils found out that the gunboats had been captured, and hurriedly sent five gunboats to chase after them.

Zhang Lei asked Gu Wei to drive the gunboat, personally operate the cannon, and fire at the port where the flagship of the Chao Heavenly King was located.

It doesn't matter if you hit or not, it's the posture that counts, which shows that the Japanese devils are trying in vain to attack and destroy the flagship of the Chao Heavenly King.

After firing a cannon indiscriminately, there was really a cannonball that hit the flagship of the Chao Heavenly King.

Zhang Lei asked Gu Wei to drive the gunboat directly at the Chao Heavenly King's blocking boat.

Everyone jumped off the Yangtze River and swam to the shore.

After going ashore, Zhang Lei and his entourage stood in the tidal flat reeds and looked at the river, one after another cannonballs shuttled back and forth like meteors, crossed the sky, and the roaring explosion stirred up a column of water to the sky, and a naval battle broke out between the king of Chao Tianwang and the Japanese devils.

After watching for a while, Zhang Lei and his entourage quickly withdrew to the south, detoured the long road, swam through the Kangqiao River, and marched to the northeast.

After dawn, Zhang Lei and his entourage came to Liu Changhou and Wang Qiang's military camp, and Zhang Lei and his entourage were warmest welcomed.

Wang Qiang held Zhang Lei's hand tightly and said with a smile: "It's so exciting, it's so enjoyable!" ”

Zhang Lei smiled and said: "Chao Tianwang will definitely think that the Japanese devils have taken the initiative to attack him, and the contradiction between Chao Tianwang and the Japanese devils will definitely intensify, I think that the headquarters of the New Fourth Army can send troops to cross the Yangtze River and go north while the chaos is in chaos." ”

Wang Qiang nodded and said: "The navy of the Japanese devils and Chao Tianwang will definitely concentrate at the mouth of the Kangqiao River to confront each other, and there will definitely be a vacuum zone on the river in the direction of Zhenjiang, and I will immediately send a report to the headquarters to report this good news." ”

Zhang Lei and Wang Qiang were walking in the barracks, Wang Qiang said: "One of my battalions has established a foothold on the shore of Yangcheng Lake, and I want to send a battalion to the Jiading area. ”

Zhang Lei nodded and said: "Study the new ideas and new concepts of the War of Resistance in the water towns south of the Yangtze River, in the vertical and horizontal areas of the river, the main force of the Japanese puppets has no way to assemble, and it is very difficult to move heavy equipment, the point is that it is difficult to transport artillery and ironclad vehicles to the battlefield. ”

Wang Qiang nodded and said, "Yes!" Jiangnan is rich, the team can't be hungry, the morale of the team is out, I must create a world in Jiangnan, so that the Japanese pseudo will not be peaceful. ”

Zhang Lei said: "I hope that in the future, my team can rest in your team control area. ”

Wang Qiang smiled and said: "We are friendly troops, without your support and help, my team in Jiangnan would not have developed so fast, I say that I welcome your arrival at any time." ”

After the two walked for a while, Wang Qiang asked, "How are you going to assassinate the Chaotian King?" ”

Zhang Lei sighed and said: "I haven't seen the face of the Chaotian King yet, and it is more difficult to see him than to ascend to the sky." ”

Wang Qiang asked: "Why don't you give up for the time being, stay with my team first, and we will eliminate the Japanese devils together?" ”

Zhang Lei shook his head and said: "The New Fourth Army will become stronger and stronger the more it fights, and there is no need for us." My idea is to go back in a few days, and I have already established contact with Chaojiang, who is in charge of rent collection, and three doctors, and I already have a certain foundation. Now there is a contradiction between the Chao Tianwang and the Japanese devils, and in order to prevent the contradictions from intensifying, the Japanese devils are very likely to shrink strategically, and to be honest, they have to shrink. I would like to return to the academy and settle on the fringes of the Japanese devil and the Chao Heavenly King's sphere of influence. To the south, you can go straight to Kangqiao Town, and to the north, you can often block the Chaotianwang. The Nest King is second on my death list, and if he doesn't die for a day, I'll keep an eye on him for a day. As soon as the Chao Heavenly King dies, this force is very likely to fall apart, which is absolutely beneficial to the war of resistance behind enemy lines. ”

Wang Qiang nodded and said, "Okay!" Anyway, the door of our New Fourth Army is always open to you, and you are always welcome to join.
