Chapter 101: Ouyang Yun's worries

On the artillery position of the Cadet Corps on the south bank. A regiment commander found Zhang Tianquan and asked, "Brigade Commander Zhang, are you going to transfer your position?" โ€

Zhang Tianquan shook his head, his eyes were always focused on the river, and he said, "I'll talk about it later, haven't you seen it?" The little devils are running away! โ€

The artillery regiment where the regiment commander was located was the closest to the river, and the target was the most obvious. Fearing retaliatory shelling from the Japanese ships, he came to ask for instructions on whether to move his position, and when he heard this, he turned around and saw that many Japanese ships were heading east with thick smoke. He turned his head and said, "The commander of the little devils is very smart, they are not busy fighting back, but first pull away from the distance, so that the loss will be much smaller." โ€

Zhang Tianquan nodded: "Their naval guns are much larger in caliber than our self-propelled guns and have a longer range, but if they really pull out of our range, hehe, it is estimated that we have already arrived at the battery." Well, that's right, all the gunboats are reversing - tell the brothers, hurry up and fire two more shots, after this village there will be no such shop. The little devil is not stupid, he will not be fooled again in the future after suffering this loss. From now on, it will be difficult to beat the devil fleet like today. โ€

Madang Fortress, after the density of the Yangtze River Fleet's shelling became negligent, Ouyang Yun ignored the opposition of others, walked out of the headquarters and boarded a battery. A mountain forest on the left side of the fort was still burning, which was caused by the naval artillery hit just now, which made Liu Kui, Shui Hongsleeves and Pan Meiren very nervous, they brought more than a dozen guards and soldiers and the women's army to surround Ouyang Yun in the middle, all of them as if they were facing a great enemy.

Just to the east and northwest of this fort, the sound of explosions came and went, and one after another huge fireballs rose into the air, and from a distance, several places had formed a sea of fire.

"The old devil seems to be serious!" Ouyang Yun glanced at the northeast direction and the due north direction, and turned to the east. There, almost every second, fireballs soared into the air, and a sea of fire was already burning. He couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and raised his binoculars to look over. He happened to see a gunboat named "Sun Owl" disintegrating in the explosion, and he shouted vigorously: "Good! He was relieved to see that almost all the Japanese ships had been hit and caught fire, and from time to time, one ship would slowly sink. Putting down the binoculars, a smile appeared on his face, and he said with a smile: "Zhang Tianquan did a good job, and the brothers in the artillery unit are also very competitive. If you don't fight, it's enough, and if you want to fight, it hurts once. This time, I don't think there will be half a year, and Kamakura Sukeji Jun doesn't want to slow down. Well, maybe he won't want to stay in China after this war. Liu Kui, you go and help me call Huang Hua. โ€

"Yes!" Liu Kui ran to the command headquarters.

Soon, Huang Hua appeared in front of Ouyang Yun, and he saluted and asked, "Commander-in-chief, what do you command?" โ€

"Send a telegram to Zhang Tianquan, telling him to reduce the intensity of the shelling one by one from now on. Tell him that he must leave a regiment to monitor the Yangtze River fleet. โ€

"Yes!" Huang Hua recorded it, and then trotted back.

In Wangjiang County, Okamura Ninji moved the headquarters of the 11th Army to the Wu family mansion in order to facilitate the command. The Wu family house is very famous in the local area because of the relationship between its head Wu Yongxing, and the social relationship is very good. Okamura Ningji also took a fancy to this, and intended to recover Wu Yongxing and let him serve the imperial army, so he specially requisitioned the house in front of the Wu family's mansion as a headquarters.

In the eighteenth minute of the shelling, which began at three o'clock, Okamura received a telegram from Kamakura. In the telegram, Kamakura said: Since the fleet was ambushed by the superior artillery of the Shina people and suffered heavy losses, it was no longer possible to maintain the suppression of the fire on the Madang battery. However, in order to show my support for His Excellency Commander Gangmura, I will continue with the landing operation plan, and I ask you to launch the most fierce offensive in the front......

Halfway through the message, Gangmura stood up in shock, and when he finished listening to the second half, his expression was much calmer, and he turned to the map hanging behind him in deep thought. After a few minutes, he made a decision to extend the artillery bombardment scheduled for 20 minutes to half an hour, and to seize the opportunity of the artillery of the Xuebing Army to be far away in Qianjiawan, and even if all the shells were exhausted, the fortifications of the defenders on Mianchuan Island should be completely destroyed.

The sound of explosions on the back and northwest sides became more intensive, and Ouyang Yun turned his head to look in the direction of Shengzhou, his brows furrowed slightlyโ€”there, several seas of fire had already ignited near the river. And as the shells flew deeper, the town of Mianchuan, which was three kilometers away from the Jiajiang River, was also affected - several huge fireballs rose up, and the next moment, the fire was raging. White Tassel's headquarters is located in the town!

Tassel, you can't afford any accidents! He thought so and sighed softly.

Bai Tassel has never returned to "their" home since he became the commander of the Seventh Brigade, and once this little woman who has always behaved extremely simple loses her temper, her resilience makes Ouyang Yun also restrained by it, and there is nothing she can do.

Going north this time was an opportunity for reconciliation in Ouyang Yun's mind. After all, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and anything can happen. Maybe one day, one of them will be patronized by bullets, and heaven and earth will be separated from each other. Well, just for that, he felt that the little woman would also give himself a chance.

He thinks so as a matter of course, and he is deflated as a matter of course. He thought he knew Bai Tassel very well, but in fact, he didn't know what this little woman really thought in her heart. For now, he thought that Bai Tassel was staying in the headquarters of Cotton Boat Town, but in fact, they had already gone to Shengzhou a day ago. Moreover, Liu Zheliang, who was told by him for a thousand times, was not by her side, one of them was in Shengzhou and the other was in Zhoutou, and they had already fallen into a Jedi.

Tonight, it is destined to go down in history, but I don't know what kind of face he will be in Ouyang Yun glanced at a few places that were exploding violently, and then turned around and walked towards the headquarters.

When he returned to the headquarters, he immediately called Huang Hua and asked, "Does Brigade Commander Bai have a phone call or telegram?" โ€

The latter shook his head.

Ouyang Yun was silent for a while and asked, "What about Xiao Yi, did he have a telegram back?" โ€

Huang Hua didn't know what the commander-in-chief of Lu Dao was for suddenly thinking of Xiao Yi, he thought for a while and said: "There is no telegram today, and the last one is a ...... sent the day before yesterday."

"Oh, I see. Well, brothers, cheer up, and now, the real test is coming! Ouyang Yun's eyes closed and opened again, and he suddenly said loudly.

"Yes!" Everyone responded with a bang, and immediately threw themselves into the intense work.

In a corner of the headquarters, behind a table with the "First Aid Service", Chen Jiayao looked at Ouyang Yun, who was a little nervous, and there was a trace of worry in her eyes.
