Chapter 69 On the way to Shanghai
After the fifteenth, the weather has warmed up significantly. The spring with a warm spring visits the Jiangnan water town early. The temperature can soar to more than 20 degrees Celsius at noon, and some people even change into single clothes. In this Hexi spring, Ouyang Jian and his party of 4 arrived in Xingzi County in casual clothes. The east of Xingzi County is located in Poyang Lake, and the waterway is very convenient, and Ouyang Jian wants to take a cargo ship here to Shanghai. At present, Su Yu and Xiao Ke are stationed in Xingzi County, and Zhang Shiying is still stationed in Panlong Village. When Su Yu and Xiao Ke heard the news that Ouyang Jian had arrived at the county seat, they rushed to the city gate to greet them in surprise.
"Report to the column leader, you are welcome to inspect and guide!" The two raised their hands in salute. Ouyang Jian said with a smile: "I'm not here to guide the work, I'm passing by here." "Where is the column leader going?" Su Yu was more and more surprised. "Go to Shanghai, there are important things to report to the central government!" It is inconvenient for Su Yu to inquire about confidential matters. "How's the expansion going?" The group walked into the detachment headquarters Ouyang Jian and asked. "The first batch of 500 people came, I arranged to go to Panlong Village, I plan to let Zhang Shiying's detachment take the lead in completing the expansion task, and then the first team and the third detachment will implement the expansion."
After Su Yu finished speaking, he took the opportunity to recommend a candidate for the captain of a team, and there was no problem with the person recommended by Su Yu, the commander of the first company was his old subordinate and could be a captain. That night, Ouyang Jian and his party of four took a boat to Sweetwater Island, the spring water of this island is said to have a sweet taste, hence the name. In addition, Sweetwater Island is also the territory of the Hong gang leader, and the current water guerrilla force is formed with the Hong gang leader as the team, and over the past year, the Hong gang leader's people have grown to more than 100 people, and not long ago Su Yu provided 100 rifles and ammunition for the Hong gang leader.
It was almost dusk when he arrived at Sweetwater Island, and the Hong gang leader on the dock clasped his fists in his hands and greeted Shangguan Fei and said: "Old shopkeeper, I didn't know that you were here, disrespectful!" "I'm exempt from the Red Army now, let me introduce you, this is Ouyang Jian, the commander of the Jiujiang Independent Column." Hearing Ouyang Jian's three words, the gang leader Hong was discolored, and hurriedly knelt down on one leg and said: "The subordinates have eyes but no beads, and they don't know the dignity of the chief. Ouyang Jian hurriedly stepped forward to help the gang leader Hong and said, "Brother Hong, the Red Army advocates equality and does not prosper, please hurry up." The visit of the old shopkeeper and the legendary figure to Sweetwater Island naturally caused a sensation, and the Hong Gang Master held a feast to entertain him.
During the banquet, Shangguan Yun observed his words and looks, and found that the Hong gang leader had a suspicious face, so he said: "Brother Hong, is there anything difficult?" Now we are a family, just say. Gang Leader Hong sighed and said: "It's a shame to say it, not long ago, Chief Su gave us a batch of guns and ammunition, I don't know how to let Ma Hu know this news, this guy brought a letter, asking for half of the meeting, if he refused, he would wash Sweetwater Island in blood." To tell you the truth, I'm worried about that right now. ”
"Why is Mahu a climate?" Shangguan Fei asked. "This guy doesn't know who he is up to, and he has turned into the Poyang Lake Security Regiment, and there are currently more than 200 people under his strong army." "What did this Mahu do before, Ouyang Jian asked." "I used to be a lake bandit, and I did everything I could do as a thief with chickens and dogs, but I didn't expect it to become a climate." "Gang Leader Hong, tell Mahu that the Hong Gang disagrees, and it is the heroes who will take it themselves. This Mahu can't stay, I'll help you get rid of him. "Chief Ouyang's spear doesn't know anyone, I'm relieved to go out in person." The leader of the Hong Gang was overjoyed when he heard this.
Ma Hu lived in the Lao Ye Temple on the other side of the lake, and the Hong gang leader sent someone to deliver a letter to Ma Hu that night. The refusal was undoubtedly a war letter, and two days later, in the morning, Ma Hu led his subordinates to Sweetwater Island, and Ouyang Jian asked the Hong gang leader to face the battle. The two sides opened a stand on the lake on the south side of Sweetwater Island, and dozens of wooden boats confronted each other. Ma Hu was a little confused when he saw that the leader of the Hong gang dared to fight, but when he saw that the master of the Hong gang had few soldiers and strong horses, he immediately ordered to outflank him, and suddenly the wooden boats of the lake bandits surrounded him in a fan shape.
Ouyang Jian and Mu Shixiong were ambushed at the bow and stern of the ship, and Ouyang Jian was located at the bow of the ship. "Brother Hong, don't be afraid to catch up!" Then Ouyang Jian handed the binoculars to Gang Leader Hong, and then asked him to confirm that Ma Hu was on that boat. In advance, Ouyang Jian picked two rifles with good performance, and after testing, they guaranteed at least one shot at a distance of 300 meters. At this moment, machine guns rang out from the opposite side, and the bullets hit the boat gang, making a fart crackling sound, and the two sides began to shoot bullets at each other.
"Chief Ouyang, Ma Hu is on the boat where the machine gun is set up! That bald head is Ma Hu! Hong shouted. Rush up! After Ouyang Jian finished speaking, he loaded the bullet, the wooden boat bravely rushed up against the boat that Ma Hu was riding, dozens of strong men struggled to shake the pulp, Ouyang Jian aimed the crosshair forward, and the distance between the two sides quickly entered 300 meters. Ma Hu is a bald and fat man, and the goal is very obvious. Seeing that the other party was not afraid to launch an attack, Ma Hu was angry and ordered the wooden boats on both sides to speed up and outflank.
This guy relied on the ferocity of machine gun fire, so he didn't back off at all. Soon Ouyang Jian's crosshair locked onto the target and found that Ma Hu was located in the middle of the wooden boat, and next to him was the position of the light machine gun. Ouyang Jian made a gesture, and Mu Shixiong understood the intention and aimed the crosshair at the machine gunner. At this time, Ma Hu actually showed half of his body and waved his hand, Ouyang Jian aimed at Ma Hu's bald head and gently pulled the trigger, and the bullet shot out of the chamber accurately hit Ma Hu's bald head. The moment Ma Hu was hit by a bullet, he actually stood up and fell to the ground with a bang, and then the machine gunner was killed by Mu Shixiong.
Ouyang Jian began to shoot continuously, with two rifles beside him, and the pony was responsible for pressing the bullets. Accompanied by accurate shooting, dozens of people died on the Mahu boat. Several of the lake bandits who were rocking at the stern of the boat were also shot, so that the wooden boat in which Mahu was riding stopped on the surface of the lake. The other people on the wooden boat rushed to the rescue without knowing the truth, and soon they knew what fear was. The news of Ma Hu's killing began to spread, and the lake bandits began to flee one after another.
The gang leader Hong ordered a pursuit, and shot while pursuing Ouyang Jian, as long as he was targeted by Ouyang Jian's boat, he would not want to escape. "Old shopkeeper, Chief Ouyang is really a god, and the bullet is like a bullet with eyes pointing where to shoot." Gang Leader Hong said happily. "Brother Hong, Chief Ouyang is not only a god, but also a commanding general, and it is our blessing to follow him into the world." Shangguan Fei sighed. Several wooden boats were captured in succession, and the escaped lake bandits realized that the situation was not good and began to flee in all directions.
Ouyang Jian walked up to the gang leader Hong and said, "There is no need to chase the lake bandits when they scatter and escape, we will take the opportunity to kill Xiang Mahu's old cave and give him a nest." "Brother Hong, Chief Ouyang is right, don't miss the opportunity, immediately kill the old cave of Mahu. Mahu is already dead, and the dragons have no leader, and they completely wiped out this group of lake bandits in one go. Shangguan Fei agreed. The Gang Leader then ordered the fleet to kill ・・・・・・ on the other side of the lake. This time, not only did he destroy Mahu's old cave, but his territory was stolen by the Hong gang leader, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone. Ouyang Jian's strength also made the Hong Gang Master determined to follow.
A few days later, Ouyang Jian and others took a cargo ship from the Hong Gang, loaded with porcelain from Jingdezhen, and left Poyang Lake and entered the Yangtze River. The cargo ship entered the Yangtze River smoothly, and the roar of the steam engine was gone. On this morning, Ouyang Jian walked out of the cabin facing a round of red sun, looked at the rolling Yangtze River and passed east, and couldn't help but say: "The sunrise river flowers are red and the river is as green as blue in spring!" "Brother Ouyang can compose poems?" Ouyang Jian said with a smile: "Brother Shangguan, I have these two times, this is a poem written by the ancients, and this situation is appropriate." ”
There was a passenger ship coming in front of him, and the passenger ship was panting for breath with black smoke, and it seemed difficult to sail against the current. Cargo ships and passenger ships rubbed shoulders and swayed by the rising waves. There were two girls on the passenger ship standing on the side of the ship and pointing, Shangguan Fei stared at the girl, with a smile on his face. "I miss my girl!" "It's a lie to say that I don't want to, I've been gone for more than 4 months, and I don't know how it's now." "The Dark Arrow is safe in the base area, so don't worry!" "I'm not worried about anything else, I'm just afraid that she will be willful and let me get used to it since I was a child!"
Ouyang Jian smiled and changed the topic: "Brother Shangguan, if the arms deal is successful, how to transport it back is up to you!" "Don't worry! I know the people in the Green Gang, and the Green Gang is the head snake in Shanghai, and there is nothing they can't do. Ouyang Jian nodded and fell silent, but his brain cells were not idle. Will the trip to Shanghai achieve its goal? Ouyang Jian is not worried about arms trading, what he is worried about is whether his ideas can be accepted by Enlai, which Ouyang Jian is not sure. "Look, Nanjing has arrived!" The pony shouted excitedly.
Ouyang Jian was awakened from his contemplation, and from a distance, a city appeared in front of him, the ancient capital of the 6 dynasties, and it really lived up to its name. There are no high-rise buildings in this era, which shows the strong charm of the ancient capital. Listening to the news from the dark arrow, Lu Wenting was detained in Nanjing No. 1 Prison. Are we trying to find a way to rescue! Mu Shixiong, who had been silent, opened the conversation. The Nanjing underground party has been trying to find a way to rescue, but now that I am famous, the enemy will try to use Wen Ting to make a fuss, and it is impossible to rescue him! ”
Ouyang Jian closed his eyes, and Wen Ting's somewhat shy and beautiful face appeared faintly in front of him. His heart began to ache again, and his beloved was tormented every day until he died, and he could not do anything about it. There were many times when he wanted to go to Nanjing to rescue his beloved girl, but reason made him suppress his desires. When Mu Shixiong saw Ouyang Jian's appearance, he knew that Ouyang Jian was restraining himself, so he patted his shoulder to show his understanding. After a long time, Ouyang Jian let out a sigh of relief, and the expression on his face showed determination.
The cargo ship approached the Nanjing Ferry Terminal, where a large number of Nationalist troops were being transported, and several barges were also full of soldiers. Ouyang Jian secretly thought: The curtain of the Central Plains War is gradually opening, and it seems that the two sides are deploying troops, and this scene seems to be able to smell the smell of gunsmoke. The soldiers who boarded the ship on the dock sat on the ground to rest, and there were troops in the distance. "Give me the binoculars!" The pony pulls out the binoculars from his backpack. Ouyang Jian wanted to carefully observe the equipment of the Central Army, which was very necessary for future operations.
Although he didn't know the name of this Central Army, Ouyang Jian had to admit that the Central Army was well-trained and well-armed, but it was ・・・・・・. Ouyang Jian put down the binoculars, the corners of his mouth curled, and the expression on his face was a little weird. The cargo ship soon passed by the wharf, and the ancient city of Nanjing was left behind.
