The Rise of the Great Powers in the War of Resistance

the west bank of the river.

On the position of the 6th column, the commander Chu Tianming was carefully watching the little devil's position in the distance. There were loud sharp sounds and explosions in the sky, and they kept coming.

Although it was a thousand meters away from the little devil's position, and there was a river over a hundred meters wide, Chu Tianming still felt deafening explosions.

Now, the shelling has been going on for about 10 to [-] minutes, and the casualties of the little devil must have been serious, which can be roughly judged by watching the situation on the little devil's position.

"Commander! We are shelling so violently, is it too much of a waste of shells? In my opinion, we only need to shell for half an hour, which is enough to send most of the little devils to the west." [

Next to him, the chief of staff of the 6th column, with a look of reluctance, may be feeling sorry for these shells!

The Chief of Staff of the 6th Column was a regiment chief of staff of the Eighth Route Army two or three years ago. It was far from so good, living a life of lack of clothes and ammunition, which was extremely difficult.

Hearing this, Chu Tianmin smiled slightly and said: "My chief of staff, don't feel sorry for our shells, now we have enough ammunition, besides, even if we run out of shells, we will get them soon." supply."

Now, Jingpu Road is being repaired urgently. If it is fast, it will be opened to traffic in only three to five days. The train can go directly from Beiping to Jining, and a large amount of supplies from the rear will be transported continuously and very conveniently.

As for the railways from Datong to Peiping and from Taiyuan to Shijiazhuang.It has been opened to traffic for a long time now, and it is playing an important role. A large amount of materials are being continuously transported to North China through the railway. These materials include a large number of artillery shells.Shells like 105mm and 155mm howitzers.

Seeing what Chu Tianming said, the chief of staff of the 6th column also smiled, and no longer felt sorry for the shells.Now, it is the No.30 Sixth Army, not the Eighth Route Army.

smiled.The chief of staff of the 6th column also completely let go of his mentality. He no longer felt sorry for the shells. He picked up his binoculars and happily looked at the shelling situation on the little devil's position. When he saw the wonderful things, he didn't forget to shout "good".

Chu Tianming and several high-ranking members of the 6th column, including the chief of staff, were in high spirits together, acting as spectators again, holding binoculars.Watching the little devil being blown to pieces.

Everyone was enjoying watching, when a guard ran over quickly, stood at attention, saluted a solemn military salute, and reported loudly: "Chief! The boat prepared by the Lunan guerrillas has arrived."

"Oh! So fast!" Wen Yan.Chu Tianming felt a little strange. It was only over an hour before Captain Hong left, and half an hour before four o'clock in the afternoon.

Chu Tianming looked at the river in the distance, in the direction leading to Weishan Lake, although it was far away from here.However, through the binoculars, Chu Tianming still saw at least a hundred small wooden boats coming over the river.

Although each small wooden boat is not big, it may be a local fishing boat, but each boat can carry a dozen soldiers, and a larger fishing boat can carry [-] or [-] soldiers. The number of fishing boats is huge, there are at least hundreds of them, and it looks like a large area.

On each of these fishing boats, there are three or five people who are rowing towards this side. These people should be comrades of the guerrillas.

That's right, these are hundreds of comrades from the Lunan guerrilla team, rowing more than 100 small fishing boats, coming here. If the time is not short, the soldiers of the Lunan guerrilla detachment may collect even more fishing boats. There are more, but with these more than 100 fishing boats, it is basically enough. One round trip can transport an infantry regiment to the opposite bank.

Captain Hong of the Lunan guerrilla detachment was standing at the bow of a fishing boat, looking into the distance with excitement, and at the position of the sixth column with admiration.

Captain Hong had never seen such a spectacular shelling scene in his life.

Captain Hong is an old soldier and a veteran of the Eighth Route Army. He has joined the army for nearly ten years, and has participated in more than a dozen battles. However, such a scene of shelling, such a large-scale shelling scene, is absolutely unheard of.

Behind Captain Hong, several comrades from the guerrillas were also excited. There was a little fear in the excitement. They were naturally afraid of the heavy artillery group. Although these artillery belonged to the No. It's a little devil.

However, everyone still has a little fear in their hearts. As guerrillas, they still have a little understanding of the power of these cannons. [

"Captain! Look!!!"

A guerrilla shouted loudly, pointing at the little devil's position in the distance.

Just now, a 155mm howitzer shell accurately hit a little devil's bunker. Although the bunker with civil structure was covered with a thick layer of soil, only two or three "bunkers" were exposed on the side. The shooting hole, however, in this seemingly solid bunker, was blown up by the shell.

With a violent explosion, the bunker was directly blown away. A few thick logs flew around with the air waves, flying tens of meters away. After the explosion, a big hole was left in the bunker. Maybe all the little devils went to see their God Amaterasu.

When Captain Hong saw this scene, he felt a great deal of emotion in his heart, and he admired the No.30 Sixth Army.

Thinking about the past, my guerrillas fought against the little devils many times, and every time they encountered the little devils' dark forts, bunkers and strongholds, many soldiers were killed or injured in such strong fortifications.

For such fortifications, the Lunan guerrillas basically have no good way. The guerrillas mainly use light weapons, a few rifles and pistols, plus a few grenades, and they are basically powerless against such fortifications.

The only way is to cover with a large number of soldiers. A few soldiers hold bundles of grenades or explosive packs. After paying a lot of casualties, it is difficult to pull out such a strong fortification.

Therefore, whenever they encounter these fortifications of the little devils, the guerrillas will carry forward the policy of fighting if they can win, and withdrawing if they can't win.

However, just now, in front of the No. 30 Sixth Army's cannons, the little devil's bunker was like a piece of paper. Once a shell was fired, it turned into ruins.

The comrades of the Lunan guerrillas rowed more than 100 fishing boats, and slowly approached the position of the 6th column. It was less than five or 6 meters away from the position of the 600th column, and it was almost as far away from the forward position of the little devil. distance.

Going forward, it entered the middle of the positions of the two sides. This river happened to pass through the middle of the positions of China and Japan. Both sides were built across the river.

On the river, especially on the side near the little devil's position, occasionally one or two shells would fall, causing splashes all over the sky. Seeing this situation, the guerrillas slowly slowed down.

A team member standing behind Captain Hong saw this situation and immediately asked, "Captain, shall we continue to move forward, or shall we stand still?"

Captain Hong looked at his watch and found that there were still about 10 minutes before 30:30 p.m., so Captain Hong immediately said: "Tell everyone, stay put and wait for the shelling to stop, and immediately report to the No. [-] Sixth Army position." Let’s get closer together, and everyone helps to transport the soldiers of the No.[-] Sixth Army across the river.”

After receiving the order, the hundreds of members of the Lunan guerrilla detachment stopped one after another and acted as spectators from a distance, watching the rare shelling while waiting for the shelling to stop.

Many team members thought to themselves, this time is really lucky, to be able to see such a spectacular scene, after completing the task, they can brag about it with those comrades who did not come to perform the task.

Thinking of this, many guerrilla comrades were full of pride and joy on their faces.

Everyone stood on the bow of the ship, stretched their necks, and became spectators with relish, watching the No.30 Sixth Army's shelling.Seeing the excitement, these guerrillas also applauded loudly.

The bombardment continued without any sign of stopping. These guerrillas were too late to feast their eyes.

While watching the bombardment, Captain Hong looked at his pocket watch from time to time. Seeing that more than ten minutes had passed, the No. 30 Sixth Army's bombardment was still so violent, and he couldn't help secretly admiring it in his heart.

At this time, Captain Hong admired the No.30 Sixth Army so much, he thought in his heart, how wonderful it would be if he was a member of the No.30 Sixth Army. [

After a long time, the world suddenly became quiet.

At 6:[-] p.m., the heavy artillery group of the [-]th column stopped shelling at the same time. The violent shelling stopped abruptly.

The sudden silence made the comrades of the Lunan guerrilla detachment a little uncomfortable. It took at least a few tens of seconds before everyone came back to their senses and knew that the shelling of the No.30 Sixth Army was over.

Immediately, these guerrillas burst into cheers, as if they had won a big victory. Captain Hong of the guerrillas, seeing his soldiers so happy, also grinned.

After laughing, Captain Hong remembered that he hadn't done his business yet, so he immediately shouted in person: "Comrades! Come to the shore and help transport the soldiers of the No.30 Sixth Army across the river."

It was said that all the guerrillas took action, and everyone rowed their boats skillfully, and they all moved to the side of the 6th column's position, so that the soldiers could board the boat.

In just a few minutes, more than 100 fishing boats, large and small, lined up and docked for thousands of meters, waiting for the soldiers of the sixth column to board the boat.

The hundreds of fighters of the Lunan guerrilla detachment are mostly fighters active in the Weishan Lake area, and many of them are fishermen. When they rowed the boat, they not only moved neatly, but also moved in an orderly manner. All of a sudden, they were ready to dock .

The sixth column is about to start boarding boats to cross the river.
