Chapter 694 The Lantern for Help

It was finally dark, and the river was surging. Someone whispered in the clamor: "Command!"

"Little White Dragon Crosses the River" answered.

"What to throw away?" The person who asked the password was stunned. The password they ordered was "crossing the river", but it was not "little white dragon crossing the river"!

At this time, someone on the opposite side replied: "The black loach crosses the river, the fat head crosses the river, and the mud Buddha crosses the river." Then the man started to laugh.

(Note: Fat-head refers to fat-headed fish.)

"Is this command a foolish way to throw it away? "The person who asked the command said angrily, but although he was angry, he also laughed softly.

The one who asked for the password was Ma Erhuzi, but the one who returned the password was a small dustpan.

The chaotic footsteps came, and then Wang Laomao asked: "Have our people been picked up?"

"I've picked it up, one is not bad." One person asked, but two people answered.

Wang Laomao had already heard that the person who answered should be Xiao Zhuji and Bai Zhan.

Since the two of them said that neither of them was bad, then it must be Shang Zhen’s return. Wang Laomao was thinking, and Shang Zhen’s voice was already in front of him: “Did you call the name? Have we all arrived?



"After the order, everyone sent out is there, and the people guarding the raft are there," Wang Laomao replied.

"Come on the raft! The Japanese should have entered the town." Shang Zhen said.

"Okay, we all get on the raft, there are three rafts in total, and there are about ten people on one raft. They all respond to each other and help them to keep a little touch, don't fall into the water!" Wang Laomao ordered in a low voice.

So, against the backdrop of the slight water light, the black figure started to move, and the sound of reminders, the sound of guns and the sound of water stirred together, and there were also many breathing air conditioners.

sound.

It is winter, and the temperature below zero has already appeared during the day. You can imagine how cool the Yangtze River is.

You should know that they were on bamboo rafts. Although the bamboo rafts that Shang Zhen and the others built were made of bamboos with two layers of bamboos up, down, horizontal and vertical, they said on this dark night that their feet were not in water at all, and even said that they were not allowed to enter the water at all.

It is inevitable that the whole foot will step into the water.

But Shang Zhen and the others must cross the Yangtze River tonight, otherwise they may really not be able to cross the river, and they have to endure the water even if it is cold.

And the facts also proved that it would be a wise decision for Shang Zhen to let his people cross the river until dark. If they were crossing the river during the day, if the Japanese army who rushed to hear the news shot at the river, they would

Only blood stains the Yangtze River water!

"Shang Zhen." A low voice sounded by the water, which was Gao Yuyan's voice.

"I'm here." Shang Zhen walked over after hearing the sound.

Women always have privileges that men do not have. As for why Gao Yuyan summoned Shang Zhen, is it still useful? This is not the time to be pretentious.

In the darkness, a man's big hand held a woman's slender hand. Under the guidance of Shang Zhen, the two of them finally stepped onto a bamboo raft.

"Have you all come up? Are there anyone on the shore?" When Wang Laomao's speech sounded again, people answered on the three bamboo rafts, but no one responded on the shore, and all of them came up after all.

"Drive the boat!" Wang Laomao said again, so a bamboo pole was lit on the shore and the three bamboo rafts finally left the shore. After a while, as the river water became deeper, the sound of oars sounded.

The oars are used to row bamboo rafts, but who will care? It’s better to be able to cross the Yangtze River.

Water seeped out from the gaps between the bamboo rafts, and the cotton shoes of the people squatting on the bamboo rafts became wet. But who would care about it? It would be great to be able to cross the Yangtze River.

Since he started the bamboo raft, Shang Zhen and Gao Yuyan's hands did not separate. It was not that Shang Zhen did not want to separate, but when he just wanted to let go of his hand, Gao Yuyan's cold hand grabbed the backhand again.

Lived him.

Shang Zhen sighed in his heart. So what can he do? So he could only let Gao Yuyan hold it.

Since it was crossing the Yangtze River at night, in order to prevent the three bamboo rafts from getting lost, the three bamboo rafts were connected by ropes. But even so, the bamboo rafts are not ships after all. I feel that the three bamboo rafts were used by soldiers.

All kinds of paddles were paddling hard, but they were still slanted towards the other side.

It's a bit half cloudy today, so despite the water, it's pitch black in the distance.

No one knows what the situation is on the other side of the river, whether there are Japanese troops there, or even Shang Zhen and others don’t even know what terrain the other side is, or whether the bamboo raft can be reached ashore. Sometimes the fear brought by the unknown even exceeds the battlefield.

So Gao Yuyan held Shang Zhen's hand and became tighter.

"Is the feet cold?" Shang Zhen couldn't bear it and asked in Gao Yuyan's ear.

Now the shoes on Shang Zhen’s feet were completely wet by the river. I think Gao Yuyan is not much stronger.

"Fortunately, I wrapped the oil cloth on my feet." Gao Yuyan turned his head and replied softly.

It was just because it was dark that Gao Yuyan's cool lips touched Shang Zhen's face at this moment.

Shang Zhen trembled, and Gao Yuyan, who was on this cold river at this time, suddenly felt a warm feeling in his heart, as if the hardest environment was not important.

But Gao Yuyan didn't know that Shang Zhen suddenly remembered a kiss printed on his face by a girl in winter several years ago.

The girl said, the kiss was a poke, and since it had been stamped on your Ma Gan'er's face, you are mine.

So, at this moment, the thoughts in Shang Zhen's heart faded. He turned his head slightly and turned his eyes to the east coast that had already left.

Valley

But at this moment, Shang Zhen saw the fire!

Yes, fire, fire of torch!

"Everyone squatted down! If it really doesn't work, just lie down. As long as you don't fall into the river! Row the boat quickly!" Shang Zhen suddenly shouted loudly.

And just as Shang Zhen shouted, everyone became nervous because everyone also saw the fire!

Although it was dark, these veterans were probably only about 400 meters away from the shore, and at this distance, they definitely did not have the range of the Type 38 rifle.

"Will there be traitors? When we were here in the afternoon, someone came to see him and was still scammers. Didn't he attract the Japanese?" Gao Yuyan said anxiously.

"It's okay, they can't see us." Shang Zhen comforted.

But what happened next proved that Shang Zhen's comfort was not convincing, and suddenly there was a chaotic gunfire.

In the dark night, the light red line of the bullet seemed much clearer, but it was shot into the river!

The people on the bamboo raft were even more nervous, and the people who paddled the bamboo raft naturally worked harder, but so what? That person couldn't even run bullets on horseback, let alone them who were just paddling the bamboo raft?

Seeing that the trajectory of the bullet was irrelevant, some had already flew over the bamboo raft.

"You can't fight back, hold on!" Wang Laomao shouted in the sound of the oars.

Yes, you can't fight back. If the position of the bamboo raft is exposed when it is counterattacked, no matter how many Japanese troops there are on the shore, there are definitely more than them. How many of them can survive the Japanese army's concentrated fire?

As for why the Japanese army shot into the river, what Gao Yuyan said was almost the same. It must be that there were traitors in the town. Only traitors would know that they had set up bamboo rafts.

But all this is not important. What is important is that they have no other way except to take the blame. They can only pray that the Japanese troops on the shore will not be able to find the current location of the bamboo raft.

"Why did I remember the orders from September 18th? I'm so frustrated, I'm so frustrated!" Wang Laomao suddenly cursed.

Some people heard what Wang Laomao said, and some people didn’t, but the ones who heard it would only understand it after 918.

"Put the gun in the warehouse, everyone stands up to death." This is an order that was regarded as a great humiliation by the entire Northeast Army after 9918. Any Northeast Army officer and soldier who have a little ambition will think that I will never want to have a gun in my hand if I have it. Hold on to death!

But it is said that thirty years from Hedong to Hexi, and it has not been thirty years. Why is it their turn to die now? Are you feeling depressed or not?

Three bamboo rafts, Shang Zhen was on the one at the end, and Wang Lao Hu was on the one in the middle, but at this time they were really helpless. Seeing that there were a few more fires on the shore, and the sound of guns It became even more messy, and Shang Zhen even heard a bullet "pop" sound and entered the water in front of him!

What should I do? Do you really have to wait to die?

But at this moment, Shang Zhen suddenly heard someone behind him say loudly: "Idiots! Where are you guys?"

Shang Zhen turned around, and at this time something that stunned Shang Zhen happened, and he actually saw another cluster of fire!

It was a round lantern placed in the water, and the surging river water was flowing downstream towards the lantern.

"Let's go down!" Xiao Zhuojian shouted.

"Hmm?" Shang Zhen was stunned, and then shouted, "Let's go down! Don't stop if you row!"

Then, he, who was originally squatting on the bamboo raft, reached out and hugged Gao Yuyan, who was beside him, and lay down!

This section of the river is wide, but now the ship is almost at the middle of the river, and the water flows are still very fast.

The lantern was washed down by water, and the rowing soldiers were rowing their oars hard, making the distance between the boat and the lantern wider.

The Japanese army must have seen the light at a distance of about 400 meters, but it is unknown whether the Japanese army noticed it when the lanterns were in the water, and whether the Japanese army could see the bamboo raft they were riding clearly. Although the light was eye-catching in the dark night, it was still dim after all.

Shang Zhen couldn't figure out where the entire lantern came out in front of the ship, and then put the lantern down along the water.

This move is undoubtedly to use lanterns to attract the attention of the Japanese army, and they can escape in the dark.

The lantern must have been covered with waterproof oil paper, otherwise it would have been extinguished by the river.

"Pa", "Pa", "Dada", the gunshots of Japanese troops on the shore began to sound.

This time, Shang Zhen and the others saw that the trajectory of the bullet was even more obvious.

Seeing a shiny bullet like a meteor in the night sky, it flew towards the lantern with bright light.

It was a tracer bomb, which was used to fight in the dark to indicate targets to others.

It's a pity that Shang Zhen and the others were really lucky. Although some bullets flew towards the bamboo raft, Shang Zhen did not hear anyone shouting that they were injured. More Japanese bullets still flew to the round lantern that was descending the river.
