Rebirth from the Ashes: Rebuilding the Red Soviet Area

Chapter 257: Crossing the River with a Rope

When Tong Liang wakes up again

Found myself lying on a stretcher

Struggling to stand up

Gao Xuan said: "Don't move"

"You are shaking now."

Tong Liang asked anxiously, "Captain Gao, how long have I slept?"

"Where are we now?"

Gao Xuan said: "You slept for more than 4 hours"

“Now we are at Gooseneck”

Tong Liang murmured to himself: "The goose neck head east of Suxi Town"

Then Tong Liang panicked

Immediately said anxiously: "Captain Gao"

"Why haven't you crossed the Gan River yet?"

Gao Xuan frowned

He said, "I heard the news you brought."

"I notified Captain Song to retreat."

“Who knew we’d end up in Gooseneck?”

“Not a single boat in sight”

Tong Liang asked hurriedly, "What about Captain Song?"

Gao Xuan replied: "While we were waiting for the boat"

"The security team from the west is chasing us."

"Captain Song is organizing the special forces battalion to snipe the enemy."

Tong Liang couldn't lie down anymore

The instructor had guessed the current situation.

He immediately stood up from the stretcher and said, "Captain Gao"

"Let people cross the river quickly"

"Waiting"

“It’s too late.”

Captain Gao looked at Tong Liang

Doubtfully, "Cross the river"

“The ship hasn’t arrived yet.”

"How do we cross the river?"

"Besides"

"What do you mean it's too late to wait any longer?"

"Now there is only one security group chasing out from the west."

“Weak strength”

"Song Tao and his special forces battalion are more than capable of handling this."

Tong Liang stomped his feet

He said anxiously: "Hi, Captain Gao"

“I can’t explain that much now.”

"Hurry up and organize a river crossing"

“If there is no boat, swim across.”

"Forced Crossing"

“This is the instructor’s order.”

Gao Xuan finally realized the seriousness of the problem

He knew that Li Yan was in the war

I'm definitely not kidding.

Gao Xuan did not hesitate

Shouting loudly: "Cross the river, cross the river!"

"Correspondent Correspondent"

"Quickly notify Captain Song to retreat!"

......

With a loud bang

There was a sudden explosion to the west of Gooseneck Head

Gao Xuan's face changed: "Not good"

"The enemy is catching up"

Before Gao Xuan finished shouting

Song Tao brought the special forces

Running towards the goose neck in a panic

Wait until Song Tao runs to Gao Xuan

He asked anxiously: "Lao Gao"

"The enemy is chasing us"

"Has the boat arrived yet?"

Song Tao said

I took a look at the Ganjiang River

Without waiting for Gao Xuan's answer

He questioned: "The enemy chasing us?"

"A full division of nationalist troops"

“Why hasn’t the ship arrived yet?”

“We are not crossing the river”

"They will be destroyed here by the enemy."

"what"

"Why is Tong Liang here?"

Tong Liang frowned: "Captain Gao, Captain Song"

"Now is not the time to talk about this"

"Hurry up and organize the soldiers to cross the river"

......

Tong Liang repeated Li Yan's orders and speculations.

Then he said: "Battalion Commander Song Tao"

"Instructor"

"I leave the full command here to you."

"Hurry up and get the soldiers across the river"

Song Tao looked at Gao Xuan in surprise

Gao Xuan knew what Song Tao meant

Quickly said: "Old Song"

"A snake cannot move without a head"

“Now is not the time to be humble”

“No need to be humble.”

"Besides, this is the commander's order."

"Give the order quickly."

"I, Gao Xuan, will obey your orders completely."

Song Tao said decisively: "Okay"

Speaking of this

Song Tao glanced at the Ganjiang River

After some thought

Said: "Lao Gao"

"Ganjiang River is the largest river in Jiangxi"

“The river is not only wide, but also has many undercurrents.”

"And we have another division of pursuers chasing us."

“If there are so many of us and we don’t have any rules”

"Forced Crossing of the Gan River"

"Not only will it cause huge casualties to the troops"

“It’s a waste of time.”

“That won’t work.”

"Look, Lao Gao"

"We are about 30 meters away from the other side of the Ganjiang River."

"If we tie one end of the rope to the goose's neck"

"Then send a vanguard force."

"Carry the other end of the rope and force your way across to the other side and secure it there."

"Then the warriors behind..."

"You can easily cross the river by holding on to the rope."

Gao Xuan and Tong Liang's eyes lit up

Gao Xuan said: "Old Song"

"Your idea is good."

“This will minimize casualties.”

“It can save a lot of time.”

"I agree"

"But who shall we send as the vanguard across the river?"

Song Tao thought about it

Turning to a young Red Army soldier beside him

Said: "First Company Commander"

"Your company has the best armed swimming performance in our special forces battalion."

"If I give your company the task of being the vanguard of the river crossing"

"Can you finish it in fifteen minutes?"

The Young Red Army looked at the Gan River

Then he said to Song Tao seriously: "Battalion Commander"

"Let us be the vanguard of the river crossing."

“We are committed to completing the mission.”

Song Tao nodded and said, "Okay."

"Then I will entrust the task of crossing the river vanguard to your company."

The company commander saluted Song Tao

Turn around and leave

"Special Forces Battalion First Company Assembles"

“Put down everything you have.”

"Only a shotgun and a rope"

"We Crossed the River"

......

Song Tao was very satisfied with the series of orders issued by the company commander

Then he said to Gao Xuan: "Lao Gao"

"Now let's arrange the order of crossing the river."

"Wait until the rope is set up"

"Your 71st Regiment will cross the river first."

"Our special forces battalion is the rear guard."

Gao Xuan shook his head and said: "No"

"Old Song"

"Your special forces battalion has been fighting for so long."

“The soldiers are very tired”

"It's our 71st Regiment that's the last one left."

Song Tao objected: "Your 71st Regiment has recruited a lot of new soldiers in Yudu and Xingguo."

“Combat effectiveness has declined a lot”

"If you cut off the rear"

“The casualties will be much greater.”

Gao Xuan also wants to refute

Tong Liang said, "Captain Gao, Captain Song, please stop arguing."

"The most important thing now is to catch up before the enemy catches up."

"Smoothly crossed the Ganjiang River"

“So I suggest”

"The 71st Regiment and the Special Forces Battalion should no longer be separated from each other."

"The wounded and new recruits who are not good at swimming should cross the river first."

"As for the remaining troops..."

“It’s better to have better water properties.”

"So that when they finally cross the river..."

“Even without using ropes”

“You can also reach the other side quickly”

Song Tao nodded and said, "Captain Gao"

“Let’s not argue anymore.”

"Tong Liang's suggestion is good."

"The last troops to cross the river certainly didn't have time to use ropes."

"We can only force our way across the Gan River"

"Although our special forces battalion is not as strong as the Dragon Blood Special Operations Brigade..."

“But when I was in Shanghang”

"I also did armed swimming training in the Ting River."

"We'll cover the rear"

"The losses of the entire army will be smaller."

Gao Xuan also knew that Song Tao and Tong Liang were right after hearing this.

So he said, "Okay."

"Then I won't argue."

"But your special forces battalion's weapons and ammunition are probably insufficient."

"I will leave you the 71st Regiment's light and heavy machine guns and half of its ammunition."

......

Longyuan Mountain

Li Yan asked: "He Peng"

"How's your setup going?"

He Peng said confidently: "Instructor"

“It’s already been arranged.”

"Nationalist Army Ships"

"You will never cross our minefield"

Li Yan nodded and said, "Okay"

Leopard asked: "Why are there only a few of you?"

"Where is Tao Ying?"

He Peng said, "Didn't the instructor ask us to get a few boats?"

"I'll let Tao Ying take the people."

"Lurking downstream in the minefield"

"When the Kuomintang ship ahead hits the minefield"

“They took advantage of the chaos in the national army.”

"Capture the Ship"
