Chapter 103: Crossing the Yangtze River (3)

On the river, where the cold wind blows at night, several small fishing boats, each with a dozen people, are parked among the reeds and grass. This is the third squadron of Dai Zong's special operations brigade, and the squadron leader Cong Wensen is a fisherman's child who grew up on the riverside, and he is relatively expert in water and boating. So, this time, no one else got this task, and he led his third squadron to carry it out.

Looking at the Japanese sentry on the riverbank wharf in the distance, Cong Wensen said to Wang Ming, the squad leader beside him: "Inform the brothers to change their clothes, the first squad approaches from the shore, and the second squad approaches from the water, remember discipline, do not shoot, and solve all bayonets." ”

Wang Ming nodded: "Understood" whispered to the soldiers around him, and in a short time, one of the squads waded ashore and changed clothes on the shore. The dozen or so people immediately turned into Japanese and walked along the river bank towards the Wuhu wharf.

Garrisoned in Wuhu were the 18th Wing of the 23rd Brigade of the Japanese Army's 55th Division, as they were the closest to Ma'anshan. And the notorious and powerful temporary army and the Snow Fox Corps were right next to them, which made the wing commander and deputy Yi De Dazuo very nervous.

There are only more than 3,000 people in a wing of the Japanese army, but the provisional army is about 20,000 people, not to mention that they are very strong in combat.

But he also has something to rely on, that is, the Chinese army does not dare to attack him. There was a detachment of gunboats of the Yangtze River fleet in Wuhu, and at the same time at the Wuhu airfield, there were more than a dozen aircraft, and there were also troops around Ma'anshan, but they did not attack first, why? Because the Japanese army also found that they were not well prepared, and the rash attack was likely to fail.

So, the surrounding troops were ordered to carry out the siege. The area is so small that it is difficult to feed an army of 20,000, and this army is not well supplied, so it is difficult to last.

Although Ye Deputy Yi De Dazuo was worried, he only strengthened his defenses, and was not so afraid that he could not do it, believing that as long as the Chinese army could not capture Wuhu overnight, they would have no chance. At the same time, it is also clear that this army wants to cross the river, how can it be so easy?

The front army ordered to use the advantages of the Yangtze River Fleet and the army to search for all the ships along the river, and most of them were destroyed. The Chinese people, the fishermen on the Yangtze River do not care whether they are fishing alive or not. There are no boats, see how they cross the river.

Hata Shunroku on the Nanjing side was also very relieved, and besides, listening to the report, the temporary army planned to build a ship, which was too funny. Then let them build ships, can small wooden boats cross the river? It's okay if no one cares, but the gunboats and patrol boats on the Yangtze River are not decorations.

All the generals of the Japanese army can't compare their minds with Xue Rubi, and the intellectual young people who come from the era of information explosion and have an open mind are not something that these people can imagine. When he planned to cross the Yangtze River north to avoid the devils, Xue Ru had a way to cross the river in his mind. If she hadn't thought of a way, she wouldn't have done it. will fight for casualties and retreat to southern Anhui and Jiangxi, and decide to cross the river to the north, which means that she has a way.

The preparations on the Yangtze River were finally completed, and the Japanese army actually relaxed their vigilance and gave themselves half a month, which was of course well prepared. Tonight is the time to start the operation, and the first to move is the 3rd Squadron of the Special Operations Group.

The Japanese soldiers standing guard were bored patrolling the docks, never thinking that they would be attacked by sneak attacks, and Xue Ru's methods were so special, so they couldn't think of it.

The Japanese army was just thinking about how to blockade the Yangtze River and how to intercept the ships, but they never imagined that Xue Ru was staring at the Yangtze River fleet ships of the Japanese army on the Yangtze River.

Wang Ming's team swaggered over and stood guard and asked, "Stop, password." ”

Wang Ming and the others didn't know the Japanese army's password, so they opened their mouths and scolded: "Baga, I don't know either." When he said this in Japanese, the sentry standing guard was really stunned. When it was dark at night, where could he see who was coming, originally the military drill code stipulated that no one could do it without a password. But it happened suddenly, and Wang Ming's words were obviously someone who knew him, and he wanted to wait until he got closer to see who it was.

Xue Ru's idea of building a special combat team has never been broken, she originally wanted to lead the Snow Fox special combat team to dominate the world. But her official promotion was too fast, and she no longer had the opportunity to lead the team in person, but she didn't stop strengthening her special combat team. The unqualified ones were gradually transferred into the army, and a special operations brigade was formed with the best performers Dai Zong and Wei Ming, but the number was not too much, only about 200 people, divided into three squadrons.

This is not a real special combat team, but it is a hot-blooded young man selected from tens of thousands of soldiers, a cultured, intelligent, and intelligent soldier, and a talent in all fields.

I can't help but say that Xue Ru was greatly influenced by later movies, and she has not really entered the special forces, so she doesn't know the real sense of special forces operations.

Her special operations team is a collection of agents, spies, assassins, killers, and army soldiers, and it goes beyond the meaning of special forces, and is more like a secret service department.

It can be said that there are many talents in such a nondescript special operations brigade, and there are all kinds of people. It is that the selection is strict, and less than 200 soldiers are selected out of tens of thousands of soldiers, who are really elite, and they are relatively old.

Among them, Tan Chuan had the best skills, moving forward at lightning speed, and the devil sentry just wanted to see who the person who came over, but his eyes flickered, and then he felt a chill in his neck, and the dagger slashed sharply through his throat.

Without a sound at all, he fell. Wang Ming waved his hand, and more than a dozen people walked towards the devil boat on the shore. In fact, the Third Detachment of the Yangtze River Fleet did not have large ships, and it was not needed on the Yangtze River, and the Chinese Navy no longer had any decent ships, and even their warships sank into the Yangtze River.

In the first battle of Jiangyin, the ships were completely lost, and the Yangtze River was already under the control of the Japanese. Therefore, the largest ship in Wuhu did not even have destroyers, only the heaviest gunboat, about 800 tons, and then there were small gunboats and patrol boats of tens or 80 tons, and most of them were small steamers. Nor are these inland waterway vessels capable of being resisted by Chinese fishing boats.

In fact, there are so many in Wuhu, and they were transferred to the temporary army for the blockade. There are more than 30 large and small ships, with more than 500 personnel, and there are only a dozen people on a patrol boat, and only the largest gunboat, the Jingu Maru, has more than 100 people on it, and it looks like a squadron.

Boarding a patrol boat from the dock and killing the sentry, Wang Ming and the others finally spread their hands and feet, got the password from the mouth of a devil, and the assassination began, and the blood burst for a while. Even if the devil screams, it's useless, this is not a land barracks, and the shouting can make the soldiers of the dream get up and fight.

This is a ship, and even if awakened, it is futile to resist. They can't be the opponents of this group of specially selected special operations soldiers. Without the watchmen of the soldiers, a brigade hidden in the water around them also boarded the boats, and things went surprisingly well. Dai Zong was stunned: "I said Wei Ming, what should I do with the biggest one?" ”

Wei Ming said: ", the small one is in hand, of course the big one can't be let go." ”

Dai Zong said: "There are only more than 100 of us, no one will make such a big ship, besides, the captain is fast, there is no time." ”

Wei Ming looked at the behemoth Jingu Maru gunboat, and said distressedly, "That had to be blown up." It's a pity, we don't have a navy, otherwise how nice it would be to have such a ship. ”

Dai Zong said: "What do you feel sorry for, there is a first time and a second time, this time cross the river, train well, and let the captain get some navy out." I'll grab two cruisers, and we'll be on the Yangtze River. ”

Wei Ming said: "Look at your little bit of talent, the Yangtze River is majestic, and the sea is majestic." Get two aircraft carriers and go to Japan majestic. I've seen it, it's a big guy. ”

"Bragging, return the aircraft carrier, don't talk about it, hurry, send someone to blow up the big one, and the others drive away."

Immediately, there were soldiers lurking on the Jingu Maru, this time it was easy to save trouble, there was no need to kill the devils, press the * that was brought, leave the * longer, and then jump into the river and swim back to other boats after igniting it. A few minutes later, the Japanese ships on the Yangtze River suddenly started, left the dock, and went down the river to Zhaojia Fishing Port on the edge of Ma'anshan.

Behind him was the Jingu Maru gunboat, which had a violent explosion, and the explosion site, of course, was the ammunition compartment and fuel tank, and before Dai Zong and them could leave far, those dozen ships that were too small and too big sank to the bottom of the river along with the devil soldiers.

The captain of the devil wing in Wuhu, Deputy Yi De Dazuo, didn't understand what was going on. He is the army, the Yangtze River fleet is the navy, he sent troops to understand the situation, but there are no ships on the riverside, looking at the sunken big ships, the other fleets disappeared into the night river.

At this time, on the edge of the Zhaojiagang River in Ma'anshan, Song Xilian was surprised and puzzled, because on the water surface of the Yangtze River, there are many large wooden rafts that can be more than ten meters long and several meters wide, and very thick logs, cut in half, connected together with big iron sentences, and made into large rafts to float on the riverside. The shore is brightly lit, and countless torches illuminate the riverside. In the daytime, I prepared everything for almost half a month, and all the things were transported to the river. At this time, the soldiers were moving things up there, on several larger rafts, and driving the car on.

Xiao Shanling asked incomprehensibly: "Captain Xue, how can you use people to row such a big raft?" How to cross the river? I didn't see anything like sails. ”

When he asked, the senior generals of the provisional army all looked at Xue Ru and Wu Yuzhao, and Xue Ru said, "What's the hurry? Of course, I had a way to cross the river, and informed Dangtu that after the first regiment was broken, the other troops boarded the raft and prepared to cross the river. ”

Song Xilian said with a straight face: "I'm the army commander, and I don't even report it?" What are you doing? Tell me, what the hell is going on? ”

Xue Ru was not afraid at all, knowing that Song Xilian was not a proper military commander, and he didn't know which nerve he was wrong, so he always joked with himself. I didn't take him seriously: "What's the hurry? You see. ”

Following Xue Ru's fingers, the people on the shore were taken aback, because a light appeared in the upstream direction, and it was a Japanese ship. At this time, the river bank is full of troops, and if it is washed by Japanese ships, a few rounds of small cannons, not to mention the miserable.

I was surprised just now, but I saw that Xue Ru was not panicked at all, although he didn't understand what it meant, he was no longer surprised. As it approached, more than 20 small steamers and patrol boats on the river were heading towards the river, and the lights on them were bright and dark.

Xue Ru said to Wu Yuzhao: "Dai Zong, they are not bad, they succeeded, send a signal, let them land, the army will start to cross the river, before dawn, it will be completed." ”

The wounded and the soldiers, this is about 20,000 people, and it is too scary to cross it overnight, but at this time no one spoke, watching these steamers dock. Xue Ru said to Song Xilian: "Commander Song, get on the boat, and use me to invite you?" ”

Song Xilian reacted: "It turns out that you have been prepared? Okay, don't even tell me, let me worry, you wait. ”

Xue Ru smiled: "You didn't ask me!" Isn't that a surprise for you? You go first, and I will go with the last group of the first regiment. ”

Xiao Shanling said: "It's better for me to stay." ”

Xue Ru said: "Don't fight, you don't know what's going on, you have to leave the river bank quickly after going ashore, I have a way to get a boat, but I can't get a plane, as soon as the day dawns, the devil can know, everything will wait until the river is crossed." ”

Several people didn't argue, because they found that they really didn't know what Xue Ru was going to do, and they didn't know what she was thinking, so they had to board the ship.

More than 20 small steamers dragged a long raft with ropes to the north bank of the river, which of course could not be fast, because the steamer dragged too many people, and each raft was full of hundreds of people, and each steamer was also full of people.

However, at this speed, all the people can cross the river in three or five times, which is also calculated, how many Japanese ships are in Wuhu, how many rafts can be made here, and how many can be towed at a time, these are Xue Ru, Wu Yuzhao, Li Wenxiu, they don't know how many times, but there are planned preparations. If it weren't for these, how could Dai Zong and them blow up all the redundant ships and just drive them back.

The sky began to brighten, and the last time the boat approached the riverbank, the soldiers of the first regiment of Lan Xun Zhou, which had been withdrawn from Dangtu, boarded the boat, and Li Wenxiu shouted: "Zhang Jiu, get the young lady's car up." ”

Zhang Jiu said: "Don't worry, I won't get on the boat and get the car up, hurry up Zhang Zhong, there is still an oil drum, I will drive a fart car without gas?" ”

His words caused a burst of laughter from everyone, and everyone was relieved, and after more than half a month, they finally crossed the Yangtze River and were safe.

Standing on the deck of the ship, facing the river breeze, looking at the glowing sky, Xue Ru's mood was not as happy as it seemed.

For the time being, it is safe, but it is only the end of three or seven years, and it will be three or eight years in a few days, and it is still far from four or five years. Is Jiangbei safe? It seems that most of Anhui is occupied. How many places China has fallen, and the land of Huainan was quickly trampled by the iron hooves of devils. The hatred that was pressed in his heart rose again, and he seemed to see the unwilling eyes of the sixth son again.

Xue Ru was a little numb, how long has it been, at the beginning of October, at the end of December, it has only been more than three months, not to mention other troops, even by Xue Ru's side, she doesn't know how many soldiers she doesn't know at all, and they disappeared the next day. There were also cases where she had just learned the name a few hours earlier, but then that name appeared on the list of fallen martyrs.

Xue Ru sighed, her heart unspeakably heavy. Looking at the excitement on the faces of these people around him, Xue Ru didn't know that on the day of the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, there was anyone else alive, who might include himself would also be recorded on the list.
