The rain poured down, hitting people's faces with pain. The raindrops hit the ground. Soon, the dry ground became wet and muddy, and there began to be pools of water. Then the rainwater flowed down to the lower areas.
.
"It's strange. In previous years, the rainy season was in June and July. There was little precipitation in June and July in Wuhan, and there were intermittent rains in September. Now it is October, but it will rain heavily." Xu Hu frowned and faced
Zhou Weiguo Road, "Old farmers nearby said that this rain may last for a long time."
Zhou Weiguo frowned. In this case, marching was really not a good choice. However, in order to win, he had no other choice. He just hoped that the rain would give him some face, not too much, and not kill the people's harvest for the year.
.
"Huzi, if the rain continues like this or gets worse, we need to find a place to hide from the rain. Such heavy rain will bring too many dangers to the march." Zhou Weiguo frowned, "There is a high possibility of disasters along the Yangtze River.
Once the rain is too heavy, there is even the possibility of landslides."
"God won't give you face!" Liu San sighed. He knew Zhou Weiguo's temperament. If a serious flood disaster really happened, he would definitely give priority to saving the people. At least, half of the troops in his hands would be allocated.
Zhou Weiguo and others were still marching in the rain, but Zhou Weiguo no longer dared to take the remote roads. The remote roads were mountainous, and in mountainous places, the possibility of landslides would be greater.
"It's been a morning." Zhou Weiguo looked at the rain that was getting heavier and heavier, and the water had reached his ankles. "It seems that this rain is destined to rain."
"Master, you have to find a place to rest. After marching in the rain for so long, many soldiers' trousers are wet. If the water were higher, it would be up to the soldiers' calves." Huzi advised, "It's been too long.
Even the soldiers can’t bear it.”
Zhou Weiguo sighed and nodded helplessly, "Let's find a place to camp on a slightly higher ground. We have more troops, so if we are worried, the Japanese must be worried too. After all, the Japanese have more soldiers than us."
"Um."
This heavy rain directly interrupted all today's offensive plans. Even Okamura Neiji was worried about it. Since ancient times, there have been floods in the areas along the Yangtze River, and the rainy season has been long. During the previous battle in Wuhan, Okamura
Muran Ningci has already experienced a normal rainy season, that is, the rainy season in June and July, so he is still worried about the rain in Wuhan. As for whether the lack of rain will affect the harvest, he does not need to worry about it. After all, it will not happen again.
If there is no harvest, they will still forcefully seize food rations from the people.
"Your Majesty Commander, due to the influence of the rain, the Chinese did not attack."
"I understand. Let the divisions in the Jiangxia area pay attention. This rain may last for a long time. Let them pay attention to the health of the warriors and don't be knocked down by this rain."
"Hi!"
Hanchuan
"You said the Japanese have withdrawn?"
"Yes."
"It seems that the old devil Okamura is eager to implement his plan and wants to lure us into taking the bait."
"It's a pity that he doesn't know that the mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole follows behind."
"Order to occupy the Maochen Town position and move forward."
"yes!"
"But this rain, this kind of rain, is like soaking in water in the camp."
"Forget it, let the soldiers have a good rest. Let's wait until the rain stops." Li Zongren waved his hand and took back the order. The rain was indeed too heavy and it was not suitable for attack.
"yes!"
…
Ezhou
"Hahahaha, God is really helping me." A Japanese lieutenant general laughed, "With such heavy rain, the Chinese tanks may be soaked in the water!"
"Hey, I feel very happy when I think about this."
"They have been so arrogant in the past few days. In just one day, they actually captured another position and caused us to lose so many warriors."
"Tasigani, the combat effectiveness of the Chinese Independent Division is indeed very powerful. Not to mention the firepower, the quality of their individual soldiers is also relatively high. And coupled with the suppression of us in terms of firepower, the Imperial Warriors cannot be effective at all.
Fight back.”
"We have to find a way to reduce their firepower."
"I think that with such heavy rain, many soldiers of the China Independent Division will fall ill."
"Don't talk about them, even the warriors of our empire will fall ill."
"Hi, so I think we should do a good job of protection at this moment to ensure the health of the warriors so that we can better stop the Chinese."
"Yoshi, let's do it."
"Hi!"
And because of this rain, more than one or two people are worried.
"Wang Chao, how are you?" Fang Shengli asked Wang Chao, commander of the tank brigade.
"Assistant Master's seat," Wang Chao shook his head, "it rained too much and the road became muddy immediately. It doesn't matter if it's muddy. The problem is water accumulation."
"This stagnant water does have a tendency to cause floods." Fang Shengli frowned. The tank brigade has close to 300 tanks. If they are scrapped, it will be a huge loss for the independent division. Although at this moment, the height of the stagnant water can still be
Bear it, but no one can guarantee whether the water will become high again.
"This is along the Yangtze River. Once a flood occurs, the consequences will be disastrous." Wang Chao is also worried. If a flood occurs, it will not only be their soldiers who will suffer, but also the people behind them.
"Keep looking and find a relatively safe place."
"yes!"
…
Everyone is worried about this heavy rain, whether it is the Japanese or the Chinese army.
Hong'an County
"Old Li, if the rain continues like this, the people's harvest this year will be completely ruined." A New Fourth Army member wearing a gray military uniform lit a cigarette and frowned.
"Yes, at times like this, we should prevent waterlogging." Lao Li sighed, "We are all born in Kuhaha, and we understand best how to be the common people. If the harvest is completely destroyed, it will also make it difficult for the common people to live.
ah."
"Besides, our food rations have become a problem."
"Although our lives are better now, our equipment is better, and we can even compete with the Japanese on an equal footing, we are just getting started. Like new seedlings, if there are a few heavier rainstorms and strong winds, everything will be over.
Gone."
"Sad!"
"Don't worry. If the sky falls, there will be tall people who can hold it up. It's just you, Lao Kong. Don't worry." Lao Li patted the other man on the shoulder and entered the room with a smile.
"Eh? I said you, Old Li, if I really want to give you some color, just..."
…

"Are you saying that due to heavy rain and water accumulation in Wuhan, attacks from all parties have been suspended?" Li Weimin looked at the telegram and asked Liu Yuan.
Liu Yuan nodded, "Yes, and depending on the situation, this rain may last for a long time."
"What about the common people?"
"So what Weiguo means is that we should collect more grain here to prepare for emergencies." Liu Yuan sighed, "Actually, this rain is good for us."
