Liang Jian: I have a canteen

In the early morning of the [-]th.

Yang Chengwu, the supreme commander of the first division, has arrived at Hongzidian, Pingshan County!
At this moment, the third regiment has completed the supply of ammunition and food, waiting for Yang Chengwu's order.

Originally, the third regiment was ready to cross the river, but because of the boss' special instructions, Yang Chengwu checked the troops again.

Futuo River originates from Gushan Village, Taixi Mountain, Fan County, Shanxi Province, with a total length of 587 kilometers.

Santuan wants to cross the section of Xiejia River, which originates from the land behind Pingshan Mountain, flows from north to south, passes through the front land, the big river bank, and flows southeast to Sidao River. , and also caught up with the mountain torrents, which made the water flow even more turbulent.

Standing by the river, Yang Chengwu saw that there were still two boats in this rushing river, and the anger in his heart surged instantly, "There are more than 1000 people in a regiment, and you have prepared two boats?"

"Two boats are enough!" Ji Ting, the leader of the third regiment, said frankly.

"Do you think I'm stupid? Just this kind of ferry can carry four to fifty people, which is not considered a weapon! Tell me, how do you plan to cross? Don't tell me that you will have a hundred people and a hundred people every time you lie down. Human pulling, when you finish pulling, it will be dawn."

Yang Chengwu roared angrily, with the unique majesty of this soldier, his eyes widened with anger.

Ji Ting, the leader of the third regiment, was already a veteran, and he was also a mature and stable veteran. If there were no special circumstances, he would definitely not have just prepared two boats to cross the river.

Now Yang Chengwu just wanted to know why only two boats were prepared.

"Report, make sure all the personnel and equipment of the regiment have crossed the river before dawn!" Ji Ting said loudly.

"Safe! Safe! Even the boss knows that the water level of the Futuo River is rising, and he has repeatedly reminded me to be careful. But you prepared two fucking boats! Do you think you don't want to do this team battle anymore?"

"Report! We can't get a ferry! The people in the enemy-occupied area here don't trust us enough, so it's not easy to borrow two boats. But these two boats are enough! We have prepared ropes in addition to the ferry. Soldiers who can swim can cross the river with the help of ropes. These two ferries are prepared for those who can't swim and have weapons and equipment." Ji Ting stood at attention, his eyes full of determination.

"How many soldiers can swim?" Yang Chengwu asked.

"More than half!" Ji Ting said vaguely.

Yang Chengwu still wanted to continue to ask for some details, but the time was tight and the task was heavy. After he knew the current specific situation, he didn't waste any more time and continued to criticize Ji Ting for his lack of preparation. ,

It is true that Ji Ting is not to blame for this, the team came directly without establishing a relationship with the common people, the most important thing is that the third regiment was marching under the name of "corporate household" troops.

The corporal family is a local warlord army with a bad reputation, and it is too late for the common people to hide, let alone borrow a boat.

Out of trust in the old soldier, Yang Chengwu did not continue to hold on to the issue of the boat, but looked at the time, stared at Ji Ting and said loudly, "Okay! You have said enough, then I will believe you! Now ten At 53:7, [-] minutes later, at twelve o'clock sharp, the third regiment began to cross the river!"

"Yes!" Ji Ting stood at attention and accepted the order.

"Be sure to pay attention to safety." Yang Chengwu added.

The battle was imminent, and for the sake of secrecy, most of the military orders were prepared to be issued temporarily, even for the marching route of the third regiment.

To be honest, the task of crossing the river for the third regiment was very difficult.

Because most of the main force of the three regiments are from the north, not many can swim. More than half of what Ji Ting said includes those soldiers who just learned to swim temporarily.

The current was very fast, especially when the torrential rain just fell upstream. Looking at the rushing water, Ji Ting, who commanded the crossing, looked calm on the surface, but his heart was fluctuating, and he was always worried about the soldiers who were holding on to the ropes to cross the river.

In order to facilitate contact, Yang Chengwu assigned two walkie-talkies to Ji Ting.

The first step was handed over to the deputy head Xiao Shang, who led a group of soldiers with the best water abilities and some weapons and equipment to cross the turbulent river for the first time.

Under the night, the light was very poor. For the sake of concealment, the three regiments did not use any lighting tools. They just got on the ferry in the dark under the leadership of the deputy head Xiao Shang, and drove out staggeringly.

Due to carrying a lot of weapons and equipment, the draft of the hull is very deep. Although it looks smooth, it is actually very unsafe.

The line of sight was not good, and the boat disappeared into the darkness after traveling more than ten meters.

Ji Ting pinched the walkie-talkie in his hand and wanted to ask, but as a qualified commander, he suppressed the impulse in his heart.

Time passed very slowly, 10 minutes seemed like an hour.

"Shushasha~" Ji Ting's walkie-talkie finally responded, and then Xiao Shang's voice came from inside.

"The cormorant calls to the fisherman, and the cormorant calls to the fisherman.",

"The fisherman received it!" Even though he was very anxious, Ji Ting knew that Xiao Shang was on the other side of the walkie-talkie, but he still strictly followed the regulations to complete the communication.

"The cormorants have crossed the river safely, please give instructions!"

"Prepare the rope and assist the other warriors to cross the river."

"Cormorants received!"

After another seventeen or eight minutes, the two ferries returned to their original places, bringing six ropes with them.

Yang Chengwu looked at the time, this trip took half an hour, less than [-] people were sent over, and less than one-tenth of the weapons and equipment were sent over. At this speed, it is absolutely impossible to complete the river crossing before dawn.

"The time is a bit tight!" Yang Chengwu said calmly.

Hearing that Yang Chengwu's tone seemed calm, but in fact he was anxious, so Ji Ting immediately replied, "Report, the ferry is mainly used to pull weapons, and these ropes are used by soldiers to cross the river."

"be careful!"

"Yes!"

Next, the six ropes were assigned to the six companies. They each pulled the ropes to find areas where the water flow was still slow to cross the river, while Ji Ting directed other soldiers to transport weapons and equipment.

Although there is no heavy artillery, the third regiment has quite a lot of machines, and there are more than 20 light and heavy machine guns in total. These are the most important, so Ji Ting has been carefully directing them, not daring to be negligent.

Seeing the soldiers crossing the river in an orderly manner, Yang Chengwu's original hanging heart was settled.

It's a little cold at night, and the river is a little cold, but the air is exceptionally dull.

This dullness is not psychological, but physical.

The gradual reduction of the visibility and the dullness of the air made Yang Chengwu and Ji Ting's hearts suspend again.

Because, it was cloudy, and it was cloudy at an extremely fast speed.

According to experience, in this situation, heavy rain will fall very quickly.

If it really rained at this moment, it would undoubtedly be a huge disaster for the three regiments who were crossing the river. (end of this chapter)
