Chapter 192: The Ferry

"Don't think it's good news that you've come back with a few boatmen!"

Cai Kaile glared at the lone wolf with an annoyed face, now he is one of the helmsmen of this small team, and suddenly found that although this team is full of combat effectiveness, there are too many shortages in all aspects, such as no organization and no record, especially the lone wolf and the people of the big knife gate who used to be the king of the mountain, how to come to the rescue.

Now there are only seven or eight hundred people, and the problem doesn't seem to be very serious, but he is sure that once the team grows a little bigger, there will be a lot of trouble.

He was thinking that once Nanjing passed, if the team had not dispersed, some rules and regulations must be formulated, and meritorious rewards would be punished, so that the team could grow healthily while increasing in strength.

"Am I that superficial?" The lone wolf was dissatisfied.

Cai Kaile glared back, do you think you have a lot of connotation?

The lone wolf was instigated, and said flatteringly: "There is no way to tie up these boatmen just now, but these guys were scared and said a very useful news at the same time, originally there were two ferries from Xiaguan Wharf to Jiangbei, and after Commander Tang issued an order to collect the boats, they were ordered to go to Wuhan, but I don't know what the people of the ferry company were thinking about, and secretly parked the ferry in the area of Wujiang Town."

"Is that true?"

Cai Kaile was shocked when he heard this, and his face turned red with excitement.

The boats they have collected now are only thirty or forty, all of them are small fishing boats and the like, and on average, a boat can transport a dozen people at most in one trip across the river, and in the case of pure manpower, it takes a long time to cross the river and go back and forth.

When the Japanese army broke through the city, the number of people gathered at the Shimonoseki wharf was at least 100,000, and even if these boats were combined with the boats organized by the guerrillas, they would be a drop in the bucket for such a large number of refugees.

If there were two mechanical ferries, the situation would be very different!

The mechanical ferry can carry six or seven hundred people at a time, and two boats can carry more than 1,000 people at a time, and because of the sufficient power, the speed is more than twice as fast as that of ordinary fishing boats!

It can be said that as long as you can really master the two ferries in your hands, it can not only speed up the speed of the refugees crossing the river, but also play a role in stabilizing the people's hearts, and the value is really too great!

"Of course it's true, as soon as I make a move, do they dare to tell a lie?"

Cai Kaile heard that the thoughts in his mind were full of thoughts, and the lone wolf was even more proud, he also knew the importance of this news, and then said in frustration: "The only problem is that, according to the boatman, these two ferries are controlled by **, and there are hundreds of ** people guarding the ferry, I guess they may not be willing to hand over the ferry to us!" ”

In this way, it is easy to explain why the ferry stopped at Wujiang, and it must be a way back left for some high-ranking officials.

In view of Tang Shengzhi's repeated orders, they did not dare to stop the ferry near Nanjing, but Wujiang was already nearly 100 miles away from Nanjing, and it was upstream, and Tang Shengzhi probably did not know that there was a ferry over there.

"I can't care so much!"

Cai Kaile's eyes flashed with a touch of ruthlessness and said: "Human life is at stake, I am willing to give us the ferry better, if you don't give it, then fight, in short, these two ferries, we have to decide!" ”

After a brief discussion, Cai Kaile took half of the men and horses to continue to collect boat workers on the north shore and build as many wooden platoons as possible, while Su Yan took more than 300 people to kill Wujiang Town, and for insurance, he also notified the guerrillas to cooperate.

In short, these two ferries, they must get their hands on them.

On the south bank, on the Zhendan Plain, the battle with the Japanese army has been carried out to an extremely tragic point.

The Japanese army is now in serious shortage of supplies and food, and the other side thought that the other side would shrink or even collapse because of this, but now, these Japanese troops, who are almost trapped like beasts, are rushing forward as if they are crazy, and they are fully close to the part of the supporting Ushijima Division and the first part of the navy that has landed.

Among them, the Chaoxiang Department, which had just been promoted to lieutenant general, was particularly ferocious, and every battle would dispatch a death squad to launch a decisive charge, breaking through several lines of defense one after another, and approaching Jurong on the periphery of Nanjing!

By the time they reached the periphery of Jurong, there were more than 5,000 Japanese troops left.

But it's these 5,000 people, all of them are like mad dogs, and their combat effectiveness is unimaginably strong, and they are simply unstoppable!

Tangshan, where the 159th Division led by Luo Cequn was stationed, and Jurong, which was garrisoned by Huo Shouyi's Department of the 112th Division, became the focus of the attack on Chaoxiang!

No one thought that the Japanese army was almost a division of trapped beasts, and they were still fighting and retreating.

"Brother Luo, the Japanese army is menacing, the place where you and I are stationed is the last line of defense in Nanjing, as long as we have a breath of air, we must not let them pass!"

On the phone, Huo Shouyi talked to Luo Cequn, who was stationed in Tangshan, and encouraged each other.

Luo Cequn replied loudly in Cantonese: "Don't worry, the division commander, my department will never meet and be a mourner, and I will fight my position to the second Luodian!" ”

Luo Cequn also participated in the Battle of Shanghai, the Battle of Luodian, almost a piece of flesh and blood, and gave the Japanese army a head start, in this battle, he is confident that he will teach the little devil a lesson again!

"It's hateful, it's hateful, such a good fighter plane on the Zhendan front was wasted by those dogs who were greedy for life and afraid of death."

Huo Shouyi shouted sadly, after the Japanese army on the front line of Zhendan was burned and reinforced, it originally formed an excellent fighter, and the first side also arranged a corresponding strategy, turning this plain into scorched earth, luring the enemy to go deep into layers to block, and gave the Japanese army heavy losses, from the 27th to the present, the annihilation of the Japanese army was nearly 20,000, and the aspect, also lost 30,000 or 40,000 people.

This was the highest rate of battlefield exchange in the war against Japan since the start of the all-out war.

But it's a pity that since the deathless breakthrough of the Asaka Department and the straight insertion of the sentence like a sharp knife, the surrounding Japanese troops have also rushed to force a surprise attack, and the support troops are close to each other, but the side has collapsed one after another, ruining the good situation in one fell swoop

Now, it is not only the Asahika Department that is pressing on Jurong Tangshan, but also the Yamashima Kazuo Department, etc., with a total strength of more than 40,000 people!

Tangshan Jurong, danger also!

But even so, Huo Shouyi and Luo Cequn did not lose the courage to fight to the death, and now all they have left is the courage not to be afraid of death!

Lu Yuan's small deviation from history seems to be forcibly turning back to its original track.

But something happened after all.

In the land towards Tangshan Jurong, the only warring parties in history were the Japanese army, but now, there is the intervention of a third party.
