Zhou Wu was very moved when he saw that these brothers were injured and hurried here, and he held the hand of one of the brothers and said to them: "Lao Cheng's subordinates are worthy of being heroes, today I will hand over this devil gunboat to you, you do your best, repair it well, it's okay if you don't repair it well, it's okay to drag the gunboat over and study it carefully and slowly." ” Lao Cheng's subordinates heard that Zhou Wu asked them to come in such a hurry It turned out to be repairing this devil gunboat that was beaten down by the brothers on the lake, which is equivalent to returning to the old business on the side of the New Fourth Army, and immediately became interested, and said to the quartermaster Lao Xu: "Deputy Brigade Commander Xu, it's best to let a few brothers from your quartermaster come to help, our brothers go and see, it is estimated that as long as the power is not blown up too badly, it should be able to repair it, look at the position of the gunboat, it is so big, it is estimated that there is not only one set of power systems, As long as its backup power system isn't blown up, it's not a big problem. ” When Zhou Wu heard this, it was great, and hurriedly explained to Lao Xu: "Lao Xu, this matter will be handed over to you, let's go first, Shui Sheng, you also hurry up and take the waterway brothers to the north, Lao Xu, you slowly repair, pay attention to the devil plane in the sky, there are eyebrows, send someone to Hudong Town to report, we are waiting for you over there" Huang Shuisheng immediately rushed to Hudong Town from the waterway with the brothers of the special task force, and Zhou Wu caught up with the fat man and said to the fat man: "Fat man, your regiment suffered a lot of losses in this battle, and it was also very good.
As soon as the fat man heard Zhou Wu speak like this, his heart was sweeter than eating honey, and the fat head that was originally drooping was also raised at this moment, and he shouted to his subordinates at the top of his voice: "Brothers, speed up the march, our first regiment is the first of the independent brigade, when have we lost to the second regiment and the third regiment?"
The fat man's shout fully stirred up the sense of honor of the hundreds of remaining brothers, and everyone sped up and ran towards the north as if they were dying, and soon left Ge Sanmin and their second regiment far behind, Ge Sanmin, of course, they didn't dare to lose behind, and when they saw the fat man rushing forward with the team like crazy, he also held back his strength to speed up the march in the propaganda slogans of the political work cadres, Zhou Wu looked at the two groups of men under his command and rushed to the north.
With a knowing smile on his face, he felt that he had been here for more than three years in the New Fourth Army, and now he finally saw the hope of this independent brigade unit, and that he could have such a "howling" high morale, so why worry about not being able to defeat the well-equipped little devils The fat man's group was the first to rush to Hudong Town, Zhou Wu also followed the fat man and they came here, before they got close to the lakeside town, Zhou Wu and the fat man heard the deafening explosion in front of them, the fat man's ears were bright, he carefully lay on the ground and listened, stood up and looked rare and solemn: "Brigade seat, the big thing is not good, the devil's artillery fire is very fierce, it is estimated that under the devil's fierce artillery bombardment, Lao Chen and they can be bombarded by the devil, It is estimated that there is no one on the position, I can't even hear the guns of the counterattack, what should we do now, rush over immediately or wait for the second regiment to talk about it" "Waiting for your group of hundreds of people to rush up now is not looking for death, I don't worry too much about Lao Ge's second group, they are not far behind us, the problem is the side of the special service group by water, if they haven't arrived yet, then we can't attack for a while."
Zhou Wu was worried that if he was in a hurry to attack the devil brigade, his strength would be insufficient, but not only would he not be able to rescue Lao Chen, who was surrounded and attacked by devils, but he would also put this bit of strength of his independent brigade into it.
The fat man disagreed with Zhou Wu: "Brigade seat, now the brothers of the first brigade are fighting hard with the devils, we rush in at this time, for those of them who hold their positions, it is better than anything, I still think it is better to rush over now, although it is possible that the casualties will be greater, but it can inspire the morale of the brothers to hold their positions, and it can also cause a shock to the little devils." ” What the fat man said was not unreasonable, Zhou Wu thought for a while, and said: "That's it, it's not okay to break in head-on, the devil is so fierce, we are undoubtedly committing suicide if we break in, you will divide the brothers under your command into two groups, led by me and you respectively, touch the back of the devil's attack team, don't be afraid to walk more, we have few people, only by attacking them behind the devil's brigade, we can break through the devil's defense line and join Lao Chen." ” At this time, Ge Sanmin arrived panting with the second regiment, Zhou Wu saw that he was coming, and hurriedly said to him: "Lao Ge, you came just in time, we plan to detour behind the devil brigade, you are here to attack the devil immediately, pay attention to the small-scale tentative attack first, and then find the weak point of the devil's defense and then invest a large army, it is estimated that Huang Shuisheng and their special service group will also rush to the ferry north of Hudong Town immediately, whether they can repel the siege of Lao Chen and them by the devil brigade, it depends on our cooperation this time." ” Ge Sanmin naturally had nothing to say, and immediately took the brothers of the second regiment to prepare for reconnaissance before the attack, and Zhou Wu took more than 100 brothers of the first regiment to divide into two ways with the fat soldiers, and slammed into the devil's back, the total strength of the independent brigade is now only more than 3,000 people, plus Lao Chen, who is desperately resisting in the devil's encirclement, and their first brigade is less than 7,000 people, facing the devil brigade with sophisticated weapons and equipment, and the number of more than 7,000, Zhou Wu really has no bottom in his heart to be able to repel the devil brigade.
Besides, the deputy brigade commander of the Independent Brigade and the quartermaster Lao Xu led Lao Cheng's brothers who repaired the power row to the big gunboat of the devil who was beaten down, climbed onto the gunboat, and extinguished the flames that were still coming out.
The brothers checked it, and most of the power compartment of the devil gunboat was damaged, but the spare power and another group of diesel engine power were not broken, and it was estimated that the repair could be moved, but the speed was affected, and it was not fast.
Lao Xu listened: "Hurry up and fix it, it's okay if you can't run fast, it's better than Huang Shuisheng and them rowing with oars."
Lao Xu hurriedly asked a few brothers to help Lao Cheng's subordinates, so everyone was busy in the power cabin full of poisonous smoke, the power in this gunboat is similar to the diesel engine power principle of the tank, so the brothers repaired it quickly and got started, the spare power does not need to be repaired, it should be able to start immediately, and the other power that is damaged by the shell is a little troublesome to repair, but Lao Xu said that as long as the gunboat can move, the workload will be much less.
Lao Cheng's tank soldiers were really capable people, and in less than half an hour, the big gunboat, which had been hit by Zhang Ercheng with 75 mountain guns, was smoking and catching fire.
Although the speed is much slower than before, not reaching forty or fifty yards when traveling at full speed, the speed of ten or so yards has already made Lao Xu very satisfied, and Xiao Zheng, the commander of the third regiment, who stayed behind and planned to take the devil gunboat to Hudong Town, is even more happy, he is waiting here with about two hundred people, and the other three regiment brothers have begun to rush to the north in waves on the small boats of the special service group.
The gunboat was repaired, Lao Zheng couldn't wait to get on the ship, fortunately, Zhang Ercheng of the artillery company left some brothers who could fire the cannon to Lao Xu and Xiao Zheng, otherwise Lao Xu and they could only watch the big guns and shells on the gunboat stunned, and the tank brothers under Lao Cheng drove the gunboat to do it for them.
After a while, Commander Xiao Zheng stuffed all the two hundred or so brothers under his command into this gunboat, the gunboat is relatively large, but it can't be stuffed into two hundred people at once, the gunboat cabin is like a stuffy tanker, people are next to people, people are crowded, and the brothers even have difficulty breathing, Xiao Zheng said to everyone with confidence: "Brothers, if you feel bored, you can take turns to go to the upper deck in batches, this gunboat runs fast, and it will be able to rush to Hudong Town immediately, maybe when we get there."
The brothers of the secret service are still rowing on the lake. ” Lao Xu tore off the plaster flag on the head of the gunboat, tore it into pieces and threw it into the lake, the gunboat slowly started to turn around, panting and sailing towards the north, although the three regiments of brothers who stayed in the cabin below were a little stuffy, but since the first time the mother took this kind of boat, everyone's mood was still quite good, talking and laughing all the way, very excited.
The gunboat is the gunboat, although the power is crippled, but it is still a lot faster than Huang Shuisheng's boat, driving along the way, watching the ships of the special mission next to them being left behind by the gunboat, Lao Xu and Xiao Zheng are very happy, thinking that this kind of devil's gunboat is still good, and Lao Zhang should have broken a few more, so that luck will come faster.
Zhang Ercheng and their artillery company were also desperately rowing the boat towards the north, suddenly he saw a big gunboat coming from behind, and thought it was the little devil's gunboats killing back and forth, nervous, and hurriedly ordered his artillery to prepare for an artillery battle, and then took a closer look with a telescope, standing on the bow deck was Xiao Zheng of the third regiment and the deputy brigade commander quartermaster Lao Xu, he knew that it was Lao Xu who had made the devil's broken ship well, and his eyes showed a look of envy, and he really wanted to go up to the gunboat to play with those naval guns for a while, It's okay to be addicted.
Soon, Lao Xu and Xiao Zheng left Zhang Ercheng and their boat behind, and almost arrived there at the same time as the first wave of the spy group led by Huang Shuisheng himself, Huang Shuisheng was surprised to see that Lao Xu and Xiao Zheng had arrived one step earlier than them.
"Deputy brigade commander, this little devil thing is really effective, he set off a lot later than us, and he actually arrived with us, you have the largest number of officials here, you can command us, the cannon in front of you is rumbling, and the fight is boiling, how can we rush up now" t1706231537:
