At this time, the air in the warehouse became more and more turbid, and several people were almost out of breath, Xu Shijiu hurriedly held his breath and took a bundle of explosives and put it outside the iron door, and connected the electric lightning tube and the detonator as quickly as possible, and after Yu Jiaxi and the others hid it, they did not hesitate to put down the detonator.

I only heard a loud bang, the iron door was blown open, and a fresh wind whistled out, and the smoke billowing outside the iron gate was swept away, and the consciousness of Xu Shijiu and the others was also clear, and they couldn't take care of it so much at the moment, Xu Shijiu helped Yu Jiaxi and rushed into the iron gate, Gao Shenxing hesitated, Zuihou still came over and picked up the red apricot.

Yao Nianci looked resentful, so he could only be carried by Yang Qing and rushed into the tunnel.

After entering the iron gate, there is a deep tunnel, Yang Qing is not wrong, this tunnel is indeed secretly excavated by Gu Zhenglun, the former commander of the gendarmerie.

This has to go back to the history of the Kuomintang's spies.

Speaking of Kuomintang spies, the most famous is the military commander, the predecessor of the military commander was the Blue Coat Society, but before Dai Li joined the Blue Coat Society and formed the Biedong team, the Blue Coat Society was just a little-known ordinary organization within the Kuomintang, and its influence was also very limited.

In the nineteenth year of the Republic of China (1930), the Kuomintang veteran Wang Jingwei colluded with Yan Xishan, Feng Yuxiang, Li Zongren and Zhang Fakui and other local warlords to overthrow Chiang, the Central Plains War broke out, and the situation of Lao Chiang became unprecedentedly dangerous for a while, and the entire city of Nanjing was also in turmoil.

When Xu 196 people drilled out of the tunnel, it was the darkest time before dawn, the surroundings were pitch black, and they couldn't see their five fingers, but they could already clearly hear the sound of waves crashing on the river bank in their ears, and they could also smell the moist water vapor in their noses.

Although they escaped death, no one cheered, because they all knew very well that they were only temporarily out of danger, there were more Japanese troops outside the city of Nanjing than inside the city, and there were still a large number of buildings in the city to provide cover, so it was difficult to hide the traces outside the city, and once it was discovered by the Japanese patrol, it would be death immediately.

Walking to the river in the dark, the sky was already numb.

Luck is not bad, today is a cloudy day, and there is a heavy fog on the river, the fog has been permeating the Xuanwu Lake, and half of the city of Nanjing has been wrapped in it, there is a heavy fog as a cover, and the Japanese army outside the city will not be found in a short time, as for the Japanese army in the city, the fire in the warehouse of the gendarmerie cannot be extinguished so quickly, and there is no need to worry.

Xu 19 and they have lost contact with the outside world, and they don't know the current situation in Nanjing at all, but they still know one thing, staying on the south bank of the Yangtze River can only be a dead end, even if they are not dragged down by the three women Yu Jiaxi, Yao Nianci and Hong Xing, it will be difficult for them to break through the heavy locks of the Japanese army and escape.

Therefore, if you want to escape, you can only cross the river!

But now there is no bridge, and there is no ferry, if you want to cross the Yangtze River several kilometers wide, how easy is it to swim across the river? That's just looking for death!

Xu Shijiu immediately decided to let Yu Jiaxi and them stay in the reeds by the river, he and Gao Shenxing and Yang Qing went separately to find wooden planks or something, ready to cross the river on a raft, but in the end they didn't find a single board, a few days ago hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians crowded at the Xiaguan wharf, in order to cross the river, they have demolished the nearby houses, and even the coffin boards in the cemetery have been dug up.

Yu Jiaxi, who was hiding in the reeds, intercepted three large bathtubs floating from the upstream, these three large bathtubs were obviously used as tools for crossing the river, but Zuihou did not succeed, it is estimated that they either fell into the water in the river, or were killed by the Japanese patrol boats patrolling the river, otherwise these bathtubs would not have floated back to the south bank.

Seeing that the sky was already bright and the fog by the river was gradually fading, Xu Shiyi gritted his teeth and decided to take the risk of crossing the river.

Although the three bathtubs are not small, they can't accommodate two people at all, no way, Xu Shijiu can only let three women sit in the bathtub, and the three men dip into the river water, and swim to the north bank with their hands pushing the bathtub, but there was a small episode when they were grouped, Gao Shenxing was unwilling to be in a group with Yao Nianci, and Xu Shijiu had to swap with him.

Pushing the bathtub into the river water, Xu Shijiu shuddered suddenly, this river water is really cold enough.

Almost at the same time, two small sampans came out of a small river near Snake Mountain, and the seal stood barefoot on the bow of one of the sampans, with the armed belt at his waist tightly braked, and a box cannon in each hand.

"Brothers, give me the light!" While searching the foggy river aimlessly, the seal shouted, "If you find someone on the river, you will immediately lean on it, whether it is dead or alive, save it first." ”

Don't get me wrong, the seal is not a kind intention to save people, he is developing arms in an alternative way, after the national army abandoned Nanjing, there are constantly veterans of the national army holding a plank, a log or even a bundle of reed poles trying to cross the river, but most of them are frozen to death in the river, but there are also a few people who are rescued by the seals and take people to risk rescuing.

The seal's abacus is very good, these veterans of the national army are all hard stubble, and they are threatened with life-saving grace, so they don't worry that they will not join the team obediently, and when these veterans of the national army join the gang, his team will immediately become the most effective water bandit armed on the water surface of the Yangtze River and Taihu Lake, and it is just around the corner to sweep the water surface of the Yangtze River and Taihu Lake.

At that time, he can hit whoever the seal wants, and Xiao Ri is a fart.

Lao Wait kindly reminded: "Big brother, we were all out at night a few days ago, but today is broad daylight, in case Xiao Ri's patrol boat finds out, it won't be a joke." ”

"You kid knows a piece of." The seal reprimanded unceremoniously, "I carefully observed it last night, and today's fog will not disperse until three poles above the sun, and Xiao Ri's patrol boat can't find us, not to mention that as long as we don't go to Jiangxin, even if Xiao Ri's patrol boat finds out, it's not a big deal." ”

The old man scratched his head and concentrated on searching the river.

Time passed quietly in the difficult struggle, the three groups of people gradually went deep into the river, and the distance between each other gradually widened, Gao Shenxing pushed Yu Jiaxi to swim to the front, but Xu 19 and Yao Nianci fell to the Zuihou side, Xu 19 lost too much blood in the battle with the enemy in the Hongqiao position, how could he recover in just two days?

Seeing Xu Shijiu's lips purple and his teeth chattering, Yao Nianci lowered his head and said with concern: "Captain Xu, why don't you come up and sit down, I'll come down and push you away, right?"

Xu Shijiu smiled with difficulty, shook his head and said, "It's okay, I'm fine." ”

As he spoke, Xu 19 stepped on his already stiff legs a few times, and pushed Yao Nianci to slightly close the distance between him and Yang Qing in front of him, at this time, the fog on the river had not completely dispersed, but it had already thinned a lot, Xu 19 saw that Gao Shenxing had already pushed Yu Jiaxi to swim fifty meters away.

When Yao Nianci was worried that Xu Shijiu would not be able to hold on and wanted to persuade again, Xu Shijiu suddenly made a silent gesture.

Although Xu Shijiu's whole person was about to freeze, his hearing was not frozen, he had already heard the faint sound of a motor, and Xiao Ri's patrol boat was approaching! Soon Yao Nianci and the others also heard it, and Gao Shenxing and Yang Qing in front of them both stopped, and looked back at Xu Shijiu at a loss.

There is no cover on this river, and you can't find a place to hide!

"Come back, swim back quickly!" Xu Jiu suppressed his voice and roared.

However, it was too late, almost Gao Shenxing and Yang Qing had just turned around, and a motorboat rushed out of the fog, and Xiao Ri Ben on the boat soon found a big bathtub floating on the river, as well as Yu Jiaxi and Hong Xing sitting on the bathtub, Xiao Ri Ben began to shout, and then the machine gun strafed over.

Yu Jiaxi screamed first and plunged into the river from the bathtub.

Xu Shijiu pushed Yao Nianci to swim to the shore, turned his head to look back, and saw Yu Jiaxi being shot and falling into the river, Xu Shijiu's eyes suddenly cracked, and he howled miserably in the sky: "Jiaxi, Jiaxi......"

Gao Shenxing plunged into the river with a fierce son, and after a while, he floated out of the river again, but his hands were empty.

Xu Jiu saw that there was no figure of Yu Jiaxi, and immediately cried, Yao Nianci who was sitting in the bathtub was stupid, she never thought that a man who looked as strong as steel could cry like this, and couldn't help but think again, if she died, would Gao Shenxing also cry so sadly?

Yang Qing and Hongxing were shot immediately after, the bathtub was upside down, and the figures of the two soon disappeared into the river.

Xiao Ri's patrol boat turned a big corner, and forced Xu 19 and Yao Nianci who landed on Zuihou's side, but at this time it was not far from the river, Xu 19 pushed the bathtub into the reeds before Xiao Ri's patrol boat caught up, and Xiao Ri's patrol boat didn't continue to chase for fear of running aground, so he only turned around and left after shooting wildly at the reeds.

Xu Jiu lost his soul and went ashore, climbed up to a high ground, and then fell to his knees and cried: "Jiaxi, Jiaxi, where are you, where are you?" You spoke, you responded, you promised to give me ten or eight dolls, the baby has not yet been born, why are you leaving, you come back, you can't go, you come back, you come back, you ......"

Yao Nianci went ashore and looked at the river in distraction, she was worried about Jiaxi, and she was even more worried about Gao Shenxing.

A wave suddenly rose on the calm river, Gao Shenxing's head poked out suddenly, and he took a deep breath of cold air almost greedily, seeing that Gao Shenxing was fine, Yao Nianci suddenly cried with joy, but Xu Shijiu rushed down from the high ground like crazy, threw Gao Shenxing to the ground, and then grabbed Gao Shenxing's clothes and roared: "Return me Jiaxi, you give me back my Jiaxi, give me back, give her back to me, give her back to me......"

Gao Shenxing didn't say a word, and let Xu Shijiu push, shove, and scold.

Yao Nianci was distressed, and shouted at Xu Shijiu: "Captain Xu, Jiaxi is dead, Jiaxi is dead!" We are all sad that she is dead, but how can we blame Ah Chu? It was Xiao Ri who killed her. ”

"Dead? Jiaxi is dead? Xu Jiu muttered and sat down on the ground.
