Just when Wu Ming was about to lead one of the remaining gunboats, three merchant ships, to have a final life-and-death battle with the devil's light cruiser Wuliang.

The radio station in the control room suddenly received an urgent telegram from Qiao Youhua from Linhai Town, "Wu Ming, the transportation on the dock has been basically completed, now I order you to bring people back immediately, and I will organize artillery fire to cover you!" ”

Wu Ming was a little stunned, and then finally came back to his senses, and hatefully glanced at the Japanese cruiser that was still in the distance, as well as the Japanese gunboat that was catching fire and exploding and sinking, and ordered with some reluctance: "Return immediately!" Fast! Our mission has been accomplished, and we will have the opportunity to avenge our fallen comrades! ”

Although the soldiers are full of righteous indignation, they still act according to the order, after all, this battle has been fought so far, and they have done their best, if they do not complete the task, then they will naturally have to fight with the little devil to the end at any cost.

Now that the mission is complete, there is no need to engage in unnecessary sacrificial battles.

On the fifth quantity, the navy junior next to Kangbian Chongshan looked at it with a telescope and put it down, and exclaimed: "Sir, it seems that the person in China has turned around again!" ”

Kang Bian Chongshan, who was still angry that the No. 029 gunboat was also destroyed and the entire six gunboats were wiped out, heard this, and quickly raised his binoculars, and after taking a look, he roared angrily: "Baga, they really want to escape, drive at full speed, catch up, kill them, and never let them escape lightly!" ”

…………

Beiping, the headquarters of the North China Front of the Japanese invasion of China.

Chief of Staff Shozo Kawabe said to Commander Sugiyama Moto: "Sir, the 1st Fleet Command has called to say that the naval reconnaissance detachment they sent was attacked by an unidentified Shina water force in the coastal waters of Linhai Town in Guangrao County, and the reconnaissance detachment suffered heavy losses.

At present, the 1st Fleet has sent more than a dozen carrier-based fighters and bombers to the sea area where the incident occurred, and the specific situation has yet to be confirmed, but he feels that this sudden appearance of the water force must have something to do with the dragon's tooth column that has just captured Guangrao County! ”

，

After hearing this, Sugiyama Yuan frowned, and said in confusion: "Unknown water power of China? Something to do with the Dragon's Tooth Column? How is this possible, in the coastal waters of China, how can there still be a naval force in China that the imperial army does not know? Haven't they all been wiped out by the Imperial Navy and Air Force? ”

Hebe Zhengsan said: "What is the specific situation of this situation, I can't confirm it for the time being, but after thinking about it, as soon as the dragon tooth column hit Guangrao, there was a naval reconnaissance unit with a water force sneaking up on the imperial army in the coastal waters of Guangrao County, and there must be some connection between this." ”

Sugiyama Yuan frowned and muttered for a while: "Send a telegram to the 1st Fleet of the Navy, and ask them to contact the reconnaissance detachment sent to find out who the water force that attacked them is, and where are their ships that can be used to attack the Imperial Navy fleet?" ”

Hebe Zhengzo nodded and said: "It seems that only in this way can we figure out what the hell Qiao Youhua's dragon tooth column is doing, until now, although the lowly officials still can't figure out the specific purpose of their capture of Guangrao, but they always feel that they are carrying out some conspiracy!" And it may be an extremely unfavorable conspiracy for the imperial army.

Otherwise, there was no need for Qiao Youhua to take such a big risk to capture an insignificant county seat. ”

Sugiyama nodded in agreement and said, "Let's let the 1st Fleet of the Navy investigate first, and when we figure out what happened, we can formulate corresponding countermeasures!" ”

On the side of Linhai Town, all the military equipment transported by the Adru fleet has landed ashore, and the main force of tens of thousands of troops brought by Qiao Youhua this time rushed to reinforce at the same time, and also brought almost all the military trucks, side three-wheeled motorcycles, and even mule-horse carts and ox carts in the base area.

Now these large and small vehicles are put to use, hauling military equipment and equipment, and rushing to the direction of Guangrao.

Ma Biao had been notified in Guangrao County and was ready to respond, as soon as these transport teams arrived, they would be escorted to retreat in the direction of Shimen.

And Qiao Youhua also led more than 1,000 artillery to stay, along with these artillery, there were hundreds of infantry guns of different calibers, and Qiao Youhua wanted to use them to meet Wu Ming and the others to retreat.

Although I don't know how many people Wu Ming and they have left, even if there is only one left, Qiao Youhua will not give up on them, because they are all the pride of the Dragon Tooth Column, without their cover at the cost of their lives and blood, this time the military equipment would not have been transported ashore so smoothly.

The expansion plan of the Dragon's Tooth Column Arsenal will also be put on hold, and it can be said that Wu Ming is the biggest contributor to this transportation battle.

In order to meet them, Qiao Youhua even did not hesitate to take all the infantry artillery of the two main regiments, as long as he could bring them back, they would be all complete.

Artillery, after the expansion of the arsenal is completed, you can produce as much as you want, and the comrades in arms and these elite soldiers who are not afraid of death who fought side by side are lost, but it is impossible to come back.

At the same time, he chose to stay with the German Yadru, who was standing on an embankment with Qiao Youhua at this time, holding a telescope and looking at the sea level.

His stay surprised Qiao Youhua, put down the binoculars, Qiao Youhua looked at him sideways and said, "Mr. Adru, in fact, you don't need to stay at all, it is safest to follow my main force transport team." ”

Yadru waved his hand and said: "NO, I want to stay, Captain Wu, they are all heroes, admirable warriors, and my sailors, I hope they can come back alive, I want to see that scene, even if I take a little risk for it."

Besides, didn't Commander Qiao stay in person? You're not afraid, what am I afraid of? ”

Qiao Youhua wanted to say something, but Zheng Yunshan, the commander of the guard battalion who also stayed behind, suddenly pointed to the sea in front of him and said, "It's coming, it should be the third regiment commander and they're back." ”

Qiao Youhua and Adru were overjoyed when they heard this, and hurriedly raised their binoculars again to look, and sure enough, they saw that three merchant ships and a gunboat flying the flag of the devil army were speeding towards the dock.

"How can there be a Japanese warship?" Adru wondered when he saw the flag on the gunboat.

Qiao Youhua was also very surprised, but through the binoculars, he could clearly see that the officers and soldiers standing on the decks of the three German merchant ships were all wearing sky-blue military uniforms.

Suddenly, when Qiao Youhua's eyes returned to the Japanese gunboat, he found that the Japanese flag on the gunboat had been lowered and thrown into the vast sea.

A communication soldier who stayed behind also ran to Qiao Youhua at this time and said: "Commander, the commander of the third regiment called, they robbed a devil warship, and now they have thrown away the devil's flag, so we will be notified by call, so as not to be injured by mistake!" The commander of the third regiment also said that one of the devil's cruisers was in pursuit after them, and asked us to cover their docking! ”
