"Yes!" Kong Xuan didn't dare to say more, glanced at Gao Quan and the others, and turned away. "The 1st Cavalry Battalion, follow me!" The roar of the cavalry commander wafted in the wind, and a large number of cavalry turned around and drove to the rear.

Raindrops began to fall in the sky again, and the heavy rain that had fallen overnight yesterday did not stop until the morning, and it did not even take a morning before the stubble came again.

Against the fluttering raindrops, Gao Quan trotted with the soldiers. Although the brim of the hat was hidden from the top, there were still drips of water on the face from time to time. Stretching out his hand to wipe his face, Gao Quan grinned, "Hehe, Xiao Qi, when you first joined the national army in Hebei, there was no shortage of armed cross-country long-distance running like this!" How's that, can you still hold on to it now? At that time, in order to improve the quality of his soldiers, Gao Quan did not engage in physical training, Liu Qi had just enlisted in the army at that time, just in time, and he was training every day.

"I can hold on! The military seat can hold on, and I have no problem! Although Liu Qi was already a little out of breath, he replied simply.

"Okay, it's good to be able to persevere! Brethren, work harder, hold on, it's not far away! Gao Quan loudly boosted the morale of the soldiers.

"It's not far! Just hold on a little longer! The officers also joined in cheering the soldiers, and the whole team was immediately much more energetic than before, and the tiredness on the faces of the soldiers gradually receded, replaced by giggling and laughing.

The sound of gunfire kept ringing behind him, and the team was still the same team, and no one stopped to stop the enemy, and the warriors in Gao Quan's line of sight still ran forward with him. It's not far, it's really not far from the construction site of the engineering regiment, Gao can sweat all over his body, and the construction site on the gate has already appeared in sight.

Just on the bank of the river, a large group of people are working, and piles have been laid on half of the river, and countless figures can be seen busy on the shore and on the river. The rain in the sky began to get heavier again, and the water of the Wuxi River was churning and roaring. There is rain above, and there is river water below, and the working people are between heaven and earth, with the water on both sides of the upper and lower sides, and are subduing the tyrannical Jiaolong step by step, and cutting off the Wuxi River, which is more powerful than the Jiaolong!

On the other side of the construction site, someone came from afar, it was Cao Bao, the commander of the engineer regiment, and several officers and scouts of the engineer regiment. The military seat came here with his troops, and the scouts who were guarding around the construction site noticed it early and immediately notified the engineer commander. As soon as Cao Bao heard that the military seat was coming in person, he put down all the work in his hand and ran out to meet him.

"Report to the military seat, the engineer regiment is under construction, welcome the military seat to guide the inspection!" Cao Bao stood in the rain and reported loudly.

"Good job Cao Bao, good job!" Gao Quan praised the engineer commander loudly, "Don't stop working, you must meet the requirements!" "What are the requirements? This is not to build a hydropower station, but to stop the river water, and then let it go. Gaoquan's requirements are just that the project should be as soon as possible, and there should be no safety accidents in the construction process, so it can be said that there is no requirement for the quality of the project or something. Even if this flood dam does not completely stop the water, it can stop half of it, and when the devil crosses the river, it can also have the effect of making the river rise rapidly.

"Yes! Guaranteed to meet the requirements of the military seat! Cao Bao made a loud promise, and then led Gao Quan to the construction site. The sound of gunfire from behind faintly came, Cao Bao stopped his footsteps and looked at the back of the team, "Is the devil coming?" ”

"Yes, the devil is following us. Cao Bao, take out some of your manpower to build fortifications immediately, and we will fight a blocking battle with the devils here! ”

Drawing people from the construction site to fight, Gao Quan is indeed a little embarrassed, but he can't let go of these devils who have crossed the river behind him! Since you have met it, you can only fight! If he doesn't fight, the devil will touch the construction site of the engineer regiment sooner or later, do you want him to throw the working engineer regiment to the devil? Or let Commander Gao give up this project of barricade and flood storage? These two options are undoubtedly unacceptable to Gao Quan, so he can only find a way to eliminate this group of devils to the Wuxi River!

"Yes!" Cao Bao said yes, let Gao Quan into the shed, turned around and went to transfer troops. Sappers are also soldiers, and they can fight when they pick up a gun at a critical moment!

Soon, more than 300 sappers were assembled in front of Gao Quan, and this was the upper limit of the number of people that the engineer commander could draw.

"These brothers will be handed over to the military seat to personally command, if the military seat has any orders, just order a few of them directly, and I will go to the construction site to watch!"

The work on the construction site cannot be stopped, compared to the war, the engineer commander is more suitable for directing the construction site, as for the battle, will there be a lack of excellent commanders here? There is Gao Quan, there is Liu Qi, and there is a cavalry commander Kong Lao Er behind, which of them is not better than Cao Bao in commanding the war? The engineer commander was very self-aware and chose the job he was best at. As for the few people left, they are the officers among these sappers, and if Gao Quan has any order, these people can lead the sappers to carry it out.

"Good!" For the spirit of the engineer regiment commander's work-oriented, Commander Gao gave full affirmation, "You guys come with me!" "The devil is behind him, he has been fighting with our troops, and the time cannot be delayed for a moment, Gao Quan took the officers of the engineering regiment out of the workshop. He had only gone in and sat for less than five minutes, and then he was back in the heavy rain, and it seemed that this time Gao Quan was competing with the rain.

"Over there, over there, dig horizontal trenches; Here, here, and here, all of them must be built into deep bunkers. Alright, let's start construction right away! "Although he came here with the help of sappers, the sappers themselves are good at civil engineering, and let Gao Quan directly send these sappers to the battlefield to fight with guns and devils, he is really a little reluctant, and it is undoubtedly the most correct choice to send the sappers to dig trenches.

A few officers agreed, and led the hundreds of sappers to go. Of course, the average soldier would dig trenches, but they would not be as good as the sappers. The sappers are professionals, and the shovels make them look good! After a few shovels, the wet mud on the surface was shoveled away, revealing the raw soil below, and as the dirt splashed, a trench quickly took shape, and then quickly deepened and lengthened.

The devil who followed Gao Quan all the way was the Yamaguchi Wing of the Kono Brigade. The Kono Brigade went straight up the river to find a suitable place to swim across the river, and the Yamaguchi Wing was lucky enough to find this place first, and the Wing Commander Heitaro Yamaguchi led the infantry of the Wing to cross the river first. Yamaguchi Daisa finally landed on the other side of the river, and his whole body had become a soup chicken, and the water flowed down his trouser legs, no matter what, the Yamaguchi Wing was finally the first Japanese army to cross the Wuxi River! Heitaro Yamaguchi looked back triumphantly, but at this glance, he was stunned!
