But the two small boats that rushed ahead were not easy to mess with, and when they noticed that the cannon on the devil's gunboat was turning rapidly, they suddenly increased their speed and scurried back and forth on the surface of the lake, scurrying like a water snake.
The little devil's naval guns couldn't catch the two small boats for a while, so they had to intercept and shoot at the two small sampans with the heavy machine guns on the gunboats under the order of the devil Dazuo.
The large-caliber heavy machine gun on the devil gunboat began to shoot frantically at the boat, the bullets hit the water, causing a splash, and the brothers on the two small boats in front were not afraid, and quickly moved forward in the rain of machine gun bullets flying from the devil gunboat on the opposite side, bent left and right, and dodged flexibly, and soon approached the edge of the devil gunboat only a few dozen meters away.
At this time, the naval guns on the devil's gunboat were no longer able to get close to bombarding these speeding boats, and the heavy machine gun bullets could not hit the brothers on the two small boats who were flexibly dodging back and forth.
The brothers on the boat immediately jumped into the water with a "poof", stabbed a fierce son in the water, and swam towards the devil gunboat that turned around and reversed.
The devils' heavy machine bullets and the bullets of the 38 big cover "swished" on the surface of Hongze Lake, and a few brothers of the special service group who dived into the water were hit by the devil's bullets on the spot, and the red blood gushed out, flooding a bloody lake, and the devils saw it, screamed wildly, and all kinds of weapons began to shoot desperately at the lake Just when the brothers under the water were desperately swimming towards the devil gunboat, Zhang Ercheng took the gunboat loaded with 75 mountain guns to find the devil gunboat that was desperately blocking the brothers of the special mission group in front, Zhang Ercheng stood at the bow of the boat, and hurriedly stretched out his thumb to calculate the distance, there were still five or six miles, just into the range of 75 mountain guns So Zhang Ercheng hurriedly manipulated the captured 75 mountain guns, and the artillery brothers on the other gunboat followed Zhang Ercheng to mobilize the muzzle of the gun, he issued a series of passwords in his mouth, and the artillerymen under him adjusted the angle of the shelling according to his instructions, "clang", a 75 mm shell was stuffed into the gun chamber by the artillery, Zhang Ercheng aimed at the four devil gunboats over there again, and pressed down with his right hand, and the artillery brothers who were holding the fire rope immediately pulled the rope backwards.
I only heard a loud "tom", and the 75-mm shells rushed out of the barrel with flames and white smoke, and then the boat on which Zhang Ercheng was riding slammed backwards, shaking violently, and the strong recoil almost made the gunboat flip, and before they could straighten up and observe the landing point of the shells in front, they heard a loud noise over there.
Zhang Ercheng hurriedly picked up the binoculars and looked at it, only to see a black smoke rising from the deck of the little devil gunboat in the middle, and the 75 mountain cannon shells directly cut off the roof of the gunboat's cockpit.
Immediately after that, the 75 mountain gun on the other gunboat also began to fire, the same earth-shattering loud noise, the huge backward force of the 75 mountain gun pushed the gunboat back suddenly, and then bounced back by inertia, and the cannonball roared away, with flames and white smoke rushed towards the devil gunboat.
The second shell did not directly hit the devil gunboat, but exploded in the water only a few meters away from the gunboat, blowing up a huge column of water that soared to the sky, and the rushing wave smashed the heads of the devil soldiers who were shooting at the brothers of the secret service group with weapons on the deck.
The little devil found out that Zhang Ercheng and they had large-caliber mountain artillery, and immediately let go of the brothers of the spy group who were swimming under the water, and desperately shook those naval guns, and the hull of the ship slowly turned sideways, intending to deal with their gunboats that posed a greater threat to them.
At this moment, the brothers who were lurking in the water came out of the water one after another, and in the whistle of a leading brother, they swam towards the troop carriers behind the devil gunboats, and the brothers knew that those shells just now were reinforced by the brothers of our independent brigade, so since they have large-caliber artillery enough to deal with these four devil gunboats, then we, the "white stripes in the waves" on the water, have to deal with the devil troop carriers behind the gunboats, so that these little devils can taste what "wontons" and "bandao noodles" are like.
The devil infantry on the troop transport boat behind them were shocked and shouted when they saw many Chinese with daggers in their mouths swimming on the surface of the water, and shouted and shouted, under the wild shouts of a devil infantry major, the little devil's crooked machine gun first fired at the brothers who swam over, and the brothers hurriedly plunged into the water with a fierce son, so angry that the devil shaozo cursed, and ordered the little devil infantry to use grenades to blow up these water-based Chinese.
Before the little devil's grenade was thrown out, the water ghost brothers under the water had already surfaced, grabbed the boat gang of the little devil troop carrier, and one person grabbed the calf of the little devil infantry and dragged it straight into the lake, in the frightened shouts of the little devil infantry, more than a dozen devils were dragged into the water by the underwater water ghost brothers, and one by one they were stabbed into the chest and killed, and the dirty blood bubbled straight to the surface of the lake.
A few timid devil soldiers on the boat jumped into the lake in a panic, and before they could start swimming, they were stabbed to death by the water ghost brothers who touched them from behind.
There are more and more corpses of the little devils on the lake, and the devil Dazuo on the gunboat saw that the situation was not good, and ordered the naval guns on the gunboat to open fire and bombard Zhang Ercheng's gunboat, but because Lao Zhang's gunboat target was small, most of the devil's naval artillery shells hit the water, in addition to setting off a large column of water, Zhang Ercheng couldn't help them, so the devil Dazuo couldn't take care of the devil infantry on the troop carrier, and hurriedly ordered the gunboat to turn around and evacuate at full speed Zhang Ercheng's gunboat was also approaching the devil's gunboat, and when he was two miles away, he carefully aimed at the gunboat that had completed the U-turn and was about to retreat, and his artillerymen adjusted the elevation angle of the barrel according to his command, Zhang Ercheng gritted his teeth and stomped his feet and ordered: "Open the gun" Two 75 mountain guns fired at the devil gunboat at the same time, and the rest of the ships brought by Zhang Ercheng to place small guns also joined the battle group to bombard the devil gunboat, several hot and fiery shells with a roar of death rushed to the gunboat that was about to evacuate and escape, "boom" two directly hit the gunboat, the devil's gunboat was hit by the 75 mountain gun in the power compartment, ignited a raging fire, billowing black smoke, like a burned toad lying on the water and did not move.
The devil Dazuo who was in charge of commanding the gunboat was anxious, and hurriedly ordered the gunboat to quickly reverse and turn around and retreat, and the little devils on the troop carriers behind him also panicked, and hurriedly turned over the bow of the ship and ran in the direction of Huai'an City, Zhang Ercheng also wanted to catch up again and continue to bombard those devil gunboats, but Huang Shuisheng, who rushed to the scene after hearing the news, immediately stopped: "Lao Zhang, don't care about those devil gunboats, it's good to knock out one, hurry up and use your cannon to support us, and eliminate all the besieged devil brigades as soon as possible."
Although Zhang Ercheng's qualifications are older than Huang Shuisheng, when he was the commander of an artillery company in the Independent Brigade of the National Army, Huang Shuisheng was only a small platoon commander, but now it is different, Huang Shuisheng's position is higher than him, and it is also blamed for his unwillingness to change his career to become an infantry, so he has to do this artillery.
Zhou Wu had no choice, and said to him: "Lao Zhang, you can be an artilleryman, but when you get to the New Fourth Army, there are no artillery or very few artillery, you are still an artillery company commander, you don't regret it."
"Brigade seat, we have loved this cannon all our lives, as long as I am an artilleryman, not a company commander, even if it is a small soldier."
As soon as Zhang Ercheng heard the words of the regiment leader, and Zhou Wu asked his artillery to come here to support Huang Shuisheng, he naturally had to listen to the orders of the regiment commander Huang Shuisheng, so Zhang Ercheng glared fiercely at the devil gunboats that fled in a hurry, and shouted to Huang Shuisheng: "Xiao Huang, those devil gunboats are very cunning, I am afraid that after they run out, they will bombard us with naval guns in the firing range, then we will be miserable."
Huang Shuisheng heard Zhang Ercheng's words, and he was right, the devil couldn't flexibly turn around and fire at close range now, that is, the ships on both sides were too close to each other, and they were in the dead end of its guns Huang Shuisheng hurriedly asked Zhang Ercheng what to do After all, he is a professional, and he still has to respect his opinions in some aspects, Zhang Ercheng heard that Huang Shuisheng still respected him quite a lot, so he hurriedly said to him: "I took two gunboats with 75 mountain guns to catch up and drive those devil gunboats out of the range of their naval guns, and the rest of those small guns are here to support you in bombarding devils, so I think it's very good." ” Huang Shuisheng nodded immediately, and said, "I will send some brothers who are familiar with the nature of the water to go with you in small boats, there are more people, and the little devils also have some scruples."
He was afraid that Lao Zhang Guang would catch up with two gunboats and suffer a loss.
Zhang Ercheng heard it, anyway, there are these water ghost brothers who are familiar with the water, so he is even more at ease to fight with the devil gunboats on this lake, so Zhang Ercheng ordered the rowing brothers to speed up and catch up with the devil gunboats who were about to escape.
The devil on the gunboat saw that the surface team of the New Fourth Army was still chasing after the general with the boat, so he ordered the naval artillery to bombard the lake and set off a huge column of water to disturb Zhang Ercheng's line of sight, and on the other hand, he ordered the gunboat to run in the direction of Huai'an City at full speed.
The artillery brothers under Zhang Ercheng saw that the devil was running fast, and hurriedly reminded Lao Zhang: "Company commander, the devil is about to run out of our range, what should we do if we can't fight?"
