Chapter 1298: A Forced Rapid March!

The rain in the sky has no tendency to decrease, and it is almost dark, and crossing the river is different from climbing the mountain, there is no line of sight, and you will not even be able to find the direction in the turbulent water.

"Tell the brethren to fix it on the spot."

Feng Yi let out a long sigh, they arrived at the wrong time by the river, and only hoped that the rain would be lighter tomorrow morning.

There were no campfires, no tents, the brethren sat back to back, slumped in the mud, let the rain fall from the edge of the steel helmets, and in the blink of an eye they fell asleep, so tired that they had exhausted all their strength by marching hard for three days in the Kumang Mountains.

Sleeping in the rain makes it very susceptible to hypothermia, and the brothers had to hug each other to keep warm, so as to prevent death in their sleep.

"Wake up, wake up ......"

In the middle of the night, when the rain had lightened, the officers woke up the sleeping brothers one by one, telling them to sober up and move their bodies and eat so that there would be no unnecessary situation.

"Ahh

Feng Yi was also woken up by the cold, his wet clothes couldn't bring any temperature to himself at all, so he moved his feet helplessly, let his blood flow, and then opened the package and began to eat.

Not only Feng Yi, but all the brothers were also eating, and at this time, only food could make them survive.

"Tell everyone to get up and prepare to cross the river."

The sky finally dawned, and in the hazy light, the water of the Nangao River roared and surged past the eyes of the commandos, and the surface of the river was already more than a hundred meters, because Feng Yi's telescope could not see the situation on the other side.

"After you get there, fix the rope first, then go upstream and put the raft back......"

In the light rain, Feng Ye explained in Rhoda's ear that they only had six rafts, and they had to make sure that this thing would not sink, and all the rafts had four tires tied to the side to improve their impact resistance and buoyancy.

"One row, up!"

In the wind and rain, Feng watched the raft swaying down the river, and the brothers on the raft kept paddling the river with sticks in their hands, so that the raft surged to the other side.

The first wave of waiting was long, and there were still three rafts on the shore, and no one dared to press all the treasures at once.

"Here they are!"

Twenty minutes later, the rope at the water's edge was shaking, and the brothers who landed on the shore struggled to pull the rope out of the river to get them out of the water.

"Whoa!"

Fortunately, the quality of the rope provided by the Americans was very good, and it resisted such a great force, and the rope at both ends was paid to the surface of the water, and the middle section was still sinking in the river.

"Huhuhu......"

After fixing the rope to the tree on the shore, more than forty brothers carried the raft and returned from the opposite bank again, leaving only two combat teams on the other side to guard the tree where the rope was fixed.

The ropes on both sides are set up, and they will not be intertwined in the river, which is the most basic quality that Feng Yi does not need to explain at all.

"Up!"

The rope ladder was erected, and now it was much simpler, and the six rafts set off non-stop, and one company after another boarded the raft, dragging the ropes, and quickly headed towards the opposite bank.

"Let's go!"

Two hours later, the entire assault team disappeared on the bank of the Nangao River, and after the assault team fixed its direction, it shuttled between the fields, using forest trails to quickly approach the Menggong River.

In addition to the fixed sentry posts on this line, the Japanese army actually has many secret posts and patrols, but in this weather, not to mention the patrols, even the dark posts are shrunk in the fortifications to hide from the rain.

"Speed up!"

The march on flat ground is difficult for the commandos, even in this kind of weather, when the physical exertion is severe.

"Captain, we have no food."

What worried Feng Ye happened, the four days of dry food he carried, because of the large consumption last night, failed to hold on to the fourth day, and the commando team never had a mouthful of dry food anymore.

"It's not far from the Menggong River, let the brothers hold on, cross the Menggong River, and we will be able to see Xitong, where is the supply base of the devils, and there is still less food?"

Feng Yi encouraged everyone, if they did not deviate from the direction, they could see the Menggong River in the middle of the night, and Feng Jie's plan was to cross the Menggong River after dawn tomorrow and directly attack Xitong.

The light rain that had begun in the morning gradually stopped, and the fog gradually covered the field, and the vision was still not clear, but the sound could already be heard.

"Huhuhu......"

The commandos also knew that this was the last cover they could rely on, and if they didn't want to make a detour into the mountains and then get out, they had to speed up.

No one shouted tired, no one stopped, the team had run out of food, and if they entered the mountain range again, I am afraid that half of the people would not be able to get out, and they were speeding up now, and they were also forced by death.

The afternoon sun quickly dispelled the thick fog, the weather gradually got hotter, and the military uniforms on the commandos were constantly bubbling white, and the military uniforms were sticky and uncomfortable.

"Stop!"

The veteran squad leader suddenly raised his hand, quickly squatted down, and hid in the wild grass, while the brothers behind him held their guns and quickly unfolded, forming a fan.

Less than a hundred meters away from them, a Japanese patrol came head-on, and they had no choice, and when the weather was clear, they were kicked out by the officers and asked them to strengthen their patrols.

The patrol of more than 20 Japanese soldiers did not expect to encounter the expeditionary force here, their rifles were even carried on their shoulders, and only two soldiers held rifles, and kept sweeping the surrounding bushes with the bayonets on their rifles, showing that they were doing something.

"Hit!"

The Japanese army is coming, and now it is too late to go back and inform the large army to make a detour, the speed of shuttling through the forest is too fast, it will attract the attention of the devil patrol, so it is better to disconnect the fire and destroy the enemy in front of you.

"Sudden Sudden Sudden ......"

The firepower of the commando team was very fierce, more than ten guns in a squad, half of Thomson and half of M1, plus three Springfield-style rifles, so that the more than 20 devils who entered the 50 meters did not react at all, and in less than three minutes, more than 20 devils all fell to the ground, and most of them even had rifles on their shoulders.

"Huhuhu......"

"What's the situation?"

The fierce gunfire made Wang Ning run up quickly, looked at the situation in front of him, Wang Ning didn't say anything else, ordered the brothers to be on guard in place, and then quickly returned and reported to Feng Jie.

"Bumped into the devil patrol, it's no problem to do it, quickly annihilate."

After listening to this, Feng Yi nodded, concealed marching is a requirement, but in addition to not exposing their own caution at all, it actually depends on luck, such as the devil patrol that collided head-on this time, which cannot be avoided.

"There are still twenty kilometers left, order the troops to speed up, march quickly, and go directly to the Menggong River."

Feng Yi decided that he must cross the Menggong River before the devils react, and he can't let them block this side.

"Huhuhu......"

The whole team picked up speed again, this time there was no need for troops to reconnoiter and advance in front, and all the brothers were ready for battle.

"Huhuhu......"

It's already dark, and the commandos haven't encountered the devil patrol again, and it seems that the devil patrol that was kicked out to patrol was just unlucky.

"Commander, we're here!"

It had been dark for two hours, and the assault team had finally arrived at the Menggong River, and the lights of Xitong on the other side of the river were faintly visible.
