Chapter 153: Brave the Flood

The comrades admired Sun Lianguo's swimming skills and studied them seriously. Sun Lianguo swam to the other side, tied one end of the rope to a big willow tree, and swam back with the other end, Song Jiliu caught the rope and swam to the other bank with his comrades.

Suddenly, Scout Xiang Xiaosan was swept away by a large whirlpool, drilled straight down the rope, and struggled in the water, the situation was very dangerous. Song Jiliu himself was also on the whirlpool, and it was difficult to go to the rescue. He anxiously shouted to Xiang Xiaosan: "Hold on to the rope, float your head to the water, and paddle forward with your left hand with your feet." ”

Xiang Xiaosan struggled in the whirlpool for a while, grabbed the rope with his right hand, and got out of danger. Sun Lianguo told him to look up and encouraged him to swim forward.

The scout was panting, his hands trembling, and he was suddenly mixed into the whirlpool by aquatic weeds, and his condition was critical. Xiang Xiaozhan was swept into that whirlpool from this whirlpool, and after a while, he surfaced. Sun Lianguo handed the rope from the side, and he grabbed the rope and swam forward tenaciously. The small station finally swam up, and everyone enthusiastically gathered around him to wrap up his wounds and wipe his body.

"Comrades!" Song Jiliu said, "In order not to affect the brigade to continue to move forward, I decided to let Peng Dacun stay and take care of Xiangxiao Station. ”

"No!" Xiang Xiaozhan stubbornly struggled to stand up and said, "Who said I can't go, you see! He walked forward.

At this moment, Hao Pengju was sullen in the headquarters, and the adjutant rushed to report with interest: "Congratulations to the commander-in-chief, a telegram from Chief Chen Cheng, you have been promoted to commander of the 42nd Group Army and commander of the Lunan appeasement area!" ”

"This ...... That's great! Hao Pengju hurriedly read the telegram, and his mood was extremely excited.

At this time, Chief of Staff Hao also came into the house and said with great interest: "Commander-in-chief, I am going to drink your favorite wine." ”

"Old Five!" Hao Pengju said to his aunt's wife, "Quickly take out brandy and American canned food to entertain the chief of staff." ”

"Hey!" Mrs. Aunt stepped aside.

After Hao's chief of staff sat down, he took out a second telegram from Chen Cheng, asking Hao Pengju to send troops to respond and cooperate with him in counterattacking the Lianyungang area. So, Hao Pengju said to the chief of staff: "I have decided to dispatch troops and generals before dawn the day after tomorrow to give ** a surprise attack." I'm going to show it to the senior Kuomintang officials. ”

At this time, Sun Lianguo led Section Chief Fang, Captain Song and the scouts to gently climb to the south of the big forest. The graveyard was filled with ghostly fire, and the laughter of the bandits could be heard.

In the big fortifications, the bandits were gambling around the table and betting on pai gow. Some bandits were so preoccupied that they sat silently. A bandit said: "Let's live one day less now, let's bet on Pai Gow!" ”

"Good guys!" The company commander of Hao Buwang shouted, "Today is probably a good day, Mr. Hao has been promoted, and even I, who is the company commander, have followed the red luck. ”

However, when he showed his cards, it was contrary to his wishes, causing the bandits to laugh.

Fang Xiao, Song Jiliu and Sun Lianguo were looking at the terrain, and there was laughter from the bandits.

"His mom is a dogleg!" Sun Lianguo said, "Listen, the rabbit cubs are still happy!" ”

"Huh!" Captain Song smiled, "That's because they didn't know we were coming." ”

After a great deal of hardship, the reconnaissance bombarders finally arrived at the road to Hao Pengju's headquarters, but it would take a night or two to bring up the soldiers of the first battalion assembled in Fuzhuang. However, the time for the general attack on Baitabu will begin tomorrow. What to do? Everyone is discussing.

"Comrades!" Song Jiliu proposed, "In order not to affect the headquarters' operational plan to eliminate Hao Pengju, we must consciously enter the battle, take the headquarters of Hao's First Division, Da Shulin, jam Hao's neck, and welcome our main force." ”

"Mom!" Sun Lianguo asked Song Jiliu in surprise, "Just a few dozen of us, can we take down the division headquarters of a main division?" ”

"When is this doubtful!" Fang Xiao said with a smile on his face, "We have fewer people, so it is more convenient to attack the enemy flexibly." The enemy only believed that no one could cross the Huaishu River, and all precautions were aimed at the northwest edge of Baitabu, and we started from the south, which was very beneficial to us. ”

Comrades asked for battle and demanded to go into battle immediately. Fang Xiao said: "Comrades, after entering the battle, you must be brave and resourceful, this battle is mainly a surprise sneak attack. You can only win, not lose. ”

"Comrade Chief!" Sun Lianguo said, "Give me two grenades, and I'll go too." ”

"Okay, thank you!" Song Jiliu held Sun Lianguo's hand and said.

Qi Wanhong took out two grenades and gave them to Sun Lianguo, who touched them with a smile......

On the large tomb is the enemy's watchtower, and the passages are all sentry.

"Comrades, in order to find out the situation of the enemy, I decided to scratch my tongue first." Captain Song said, "You two masters work hard. ”

"Yes!"

Xu Yunduo and Xiang Xiaodun quietly followed several graves and stepped forward to grab a Hao sentry. Xu Yunduo shouted at the sentry, "Don't move, if you dare to tell me, I'll break your dog's head." ”

The two took their tongues to the deep grass, and Song Jiliu personally interrogated them, and obtained the details of the deployment of troops and passwords of the Hao First Division and the Baitabu Headquarters. After Fang Xiao and Song Jiliu had a clear understanding of the enemy's troop deployment, they immediately said, "Comrades, we must immediately attack the artillery regiment of the 1st Division. ”

"Good!" Song Jiliu said happily, "In the end, the chief is right, act immediately." ”

"Yes!" The crowd replied in whispers.

At this time, Sun Lianguo carried the big gun of the enemy sentry and said happily: "With grenades, it is enough for the rabbit cubs, and now that you have the long guy, let the bad guys die without a place to bury!" ”

Before leaving, Peng Dacun and Xiang Xiaozhan tied up Hao Bing and stuffed socks in his mouth. Xiang Xiaozhan said, "I'm sorry, I'll wronged you first, and I'll see you when Hao Pengju is eliminated." ”

In the headquarters of the 1st Division in Baitabu, Hao Peng held a banquet to entertain all the officers. He smiled and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, you are all loyal servants of the party-state who guard the Baitabu area of the East China Sea with this commander. I have telegraphed Chen, Chief Chen, and asked him to give you a two-level promotion. ”

"Thank you Hao for your promotion!" The villains were in high spirits.

After three rounds and five dishes, Hao Pengju assigned the task and said: "Chief Chen ordered our whole army to attack immediately in response to his victorious attack on the Lianyungang area. Ladies and gentlemen, we will leave early the day after tomorrow. Cheers to celebrate tomorrow's victory! The bandit officers raised their glasses and shouted.

Fang Xiao and Song Jiliu led Sun Lianguo and the scouts to touch the artillery position. Enemy sentries dozed off on graves with guns in their arms. Fang Xiao and Xu Da quickly lay down under this tomb to monitor the enemy, waiting for an opportunity to move. Song Jiliu led the scouts to sneak into the artillery array. Taking advantage of the enemy sentry to return to the dormitory to call for a change of guard, Song Jiliu and the scouts also quietly followed. (..)
