Just as the Dragon Boat Festival was heading west and then north to Jiangyin, the Japanese who rushed to Huishan Town for support from Changshu, Shanghai, and Wuxi had already arrived in Huishan Town.

But this time they did not pursue immediately and kill people one after another. Instead, they learned a lesson and gathered nearly 5,000 people in Huishan Town, and then pursued them toward Changzhou.

Matsui Iwane's plan was to encircle and annihilate the Dragon Boat Festival independent regiment under Changzhou City.

In other words, Matsui Iwane had been completely deceived by Dragon Boat Festival.

During the Dragon Boat Festival, we first captured Kunshan Town and then Huishan Town. Two points and one line pointed out a direction, which was Changzhou.

In addition, the Dragon Boat Festival came from the direction of Changzhou, and the understanding of Changzhou's troop deployment increased the possibility that the Dragon Boat Festival would go to Changzhou.

But the most important thing is that Matsui Iwane received the report from the reconnaissance plane, which was the two fighter jets that were destroyed by the Dragon Boat Festival.

After discovering the Dragon Boat Festival, they reported to the headquarters and confirmed that although the Dragon Boat Festival took a mountain road, its destination was still Changzhou, and according to the time calculation, the Dragon Boat Festival would arrive at the foot of Changzhou City around eight o'clock tonight.

Naturally, we did not mention that the two fighter jets were shot down later, but we did say that Matsui Iwane had received this information and the two fighter jets lost contact, which further proves this point.

So Matsui Iwane ordered the reinforcements to complete their assembly in Huishan Town, and quickly rushed to Changzhou. Together with the Changzhou defenders and reinforcements from Yangzhou, they surrounded the Dragon Boat Festival at the foot of Changzhou City.

But little did he know that Dragon Boat Festival had no intention of going to Changzhou, but went straight to Jiangyin.

This trip to the Dragon Boat Festival was smooth sailing. On the road leading to Jiangyin, there was not even a single Japanese checkpoint.

But this is not surprising. The Japanese are all huddled in the city. Without orders, who would go outside the city to set up a trap at night? Is it to drink the northwest wind?

What's more, in order not to be discovered by the Japanese, the Dragon Boat Festival deliberately avoided some towns and took mountain roads that were open to traffic.

Of course, these are also due to the little devil's military map.

The little devil's military map is very detailed, much more detailed than China's military map.

Therefore, the Dragon Boat Festival arrived in Jiangyin easily before dawn.

But Dragon Boat Festival did not go to Jiangyin Fortress.

The Jiangyin Fortress has long been occupied by the Japanese and the fort has been demolished. However, the Japanese have defenders on top and have anti-war artillery to block the river.

Therefore, crossing the river from the direction of Jiangyin Fortress is tantamount to seeking death.

Duanwu hid his troops downstream of the Jiangyin Fortress and waited for an opportunity, because the next step was for Duanwu to get a boat back, otherwise he would have to swim across the seven or eight miles of the river with his men.

However, even if everyone can swim, how can they get weapons and equipment?

So we have to find a way to get a boat during the Dragon Boat Festival.

It's just that this is easy to say, but it may not be so easy to do.

After occupying the Yangtze River line, the little devils took away all kinds of ships, and there were patrol boats patrolling back and forth on the river.

Moreover, the frequency of patrols was intensified again today, because Matsui Iwane had already predicted that people would cross the river during the Dragon Boat Festival.

And since you don’t know where it will be, then increase the frequency of patrols, discover the Dragon Boat Festival, and stop the Dragon Boat Festival.

What's more, the sudden disappearance of Dragon Boat Festival also made the old devil Matsui Iwane feel more and more that he had been tricked by Dragon Boat Festival again. Dragon Boat Festival did not go to Changzhou because the troops and horses he deployed were all under the city of Changzhou, but not even a single person from the independent regiment

Mao didn't even see it.

At this point, is there any need to think about it? The Dragon Boat Festival must have gone somewhere else, and it is very likely that it has reached the coast of the Yangtze River.

So at this time, the patrol boats on the river were one after another, just like a revolving lantern.

Zhou Weiguo looked at the patrol boat of the Japs on the river with a telescope, and said with a gloating smile: "How about it, I'll tell you your plan in advance, let everyone consult, consult, see if there are any loopholes, let's discuss it

.

But you don’t want to. Is this okay? There are no boats when we reach the river. The river is not only wide, but there are so many patrol boats of little devils. How can you cross the river? And the day is about to dawn. There are so many of us. Sooner or later,

The Japanese will find out."

"Are you gloating?"

The Dragon Boat Festival turned around and revealed the truth. Zhou Weiguo did not hide it, and even nodded, meaning that I was just gloating about my misfortune, what can you do to me?

Duanwu smiled helplessly, then came down from the mountain, returned to the forest and sat down, and then ordered: "Everyone rest where they are and eat."

Zhou Weiguo asked, "Are you still in the mood to eat now?"

Duanwu said with a smile: "This man is as good as iron rice. He will starve if he doesn't eat even one meal."

As he said this, he feasted on the Dragon Boat Festival. Firstly, he was really hungry, and secondly, he had to maintain the physical strength of the soldiers.

They came out of Shanghai and had not slept for a day and a night. The soldiers were actually very sleepy.

But there is nothing that can be done about it. There are times when you can't sleep for three days and three nights during a war.

It can be said that when a person is extremely tired, he may even have thoughts of committing suicide.

Therefore, the more it is at this time, the more Dragon Boat Festival wants to make the soldiers full. If possible, Dragon Boat Festival wants them to take a rest, even for an hour or two.

Of course, he knew this was unrealistic. They were still in the devil's belly, and the devil might surround them at any time.

What's more, he already has a new plan at this time.

Although the Japs patrolled the river intensively, they were not without loopholes. It was almost impossible for more than 3,000 people to cross the river together. Because firstly, there were not so many boats, and secondly, the Japs would not give them that much

Much time.

Therefore, when a large army crosses the river, the Japanese will definitely notice it, and then the enemy troops that follow will surround you layer by layer, making it impossible for you to get rid of them.

And even if they cross the river, the other side of the river is enemy-occupied territory, so it will be difficult for them to break out.

Therefore, at this time, bait is needed. One unit crosses the river to the north bank of the river to make some noise to attract the attention of the Japanese, while the other unit goes west, still taking the Changzhou line, and crosses the river from there.

Of course, Dragon Boat Festival is not crazy. There are so many Japanese troops in Changzhou, but they still want the troops to go to Changzhou to kill people.

Because you can just imagine, when the little devils find out that they have been fooled, will they still hoard so many troops in Changzhou? They will definitely send reinforcements along the river.

And Matsui Iwane is so smart, Danwu guessed that he should have thought that he would cross the river at this time. But he would never have guessed that he would cross the river near Jiangyin.

Because the current here is very fast, it is difficult to cross the river without a boat.

But now that the Dragon Boat Festival is here, we naturally have our own ways.

"Old Zhou, we will split into two groups later on. I will lead a group of people to cross the river. You will lead another group of people and continue to walk westward in hiding, returning to the north bank from the bridge we came from. To the

We will meet at the Fairy Temple outside Yangzhou at that time. If..."

Having said this, Duanwu looked at his watch, and then said: "If I haven't arrived at the Fairy Temple before two o'clock this afternoon, then you can take the people back to Bengbu immediately without waiting for me!...
