Traveling through the 1940s, the whole village was massacred at the beginning

Chapter 1145 Going to Seize the Japanese Warship

Jiang Jiyuan clenched his fists tightly, his chest heaving violently, as if suppressing endless anger and grief.

He took a deep breath, trying to calm his excited emotions, and then slowly exhaled a breath of stale air.

Looking up at the person opposite him again, he said, "Damn those Japanese devils! They launched a surprise attack on Pukou without warning today! Now, Pukou and Luhe have fallen once again. As for whether those Japanese devils will cross the river, it's still uncertain..."

His gaze shifted to Jiang Wenxun beside him, his eyes flashing with determination, and he continued, "Uncle Xun, that's our battlefield. We can't stand idly by while we're here. Farewell, and take care!"

At this moment, Chang stepped forward and said, "We also want to go to the battlefield with you. After these few days of rest, I feel that my injuries have healed. If you hadn't forced us to stay in bed and rest, we probably would have been unable to resist exercising long ago."

Jiang Wenming and his team were well aware of their physical condition. In fact, they had been given special medication after the surgery, which resulted in a very fast recovery.

The reason they insisted on keeping them in bed and taking their medication on time was simply to cover their tracks.

Looking at the resolute expressions on each of their faces, Jiang Jiyuan couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.

At the same time, they understood that without good equipment, how could they compete with the Japanese with just enthusiasm? They couldn't just use their bodies to block their gun barrels!

So he immediately said, "In that case, you wait here for a while, I'll go out and get something from someone."

After Jiang Jiyuan left, Yu Sunian and the others reinforced the gauze on the wound with another layer to prevent the surgical incision from reopening.

Out of boredom, Daoist Kong Qing went to visit the temples in the area. Jiang Wenming left a note for the Daoist so that he wouldn't think that his group had abandoned him.

Shi Dayong jumped up in surprise when he saw the things Jiang Jiyuan had brought over on a wooden cart.

He ran over, picked up the submachine gun, and asked in surprise, "How come these weapons are even better than those of the city guards?"

Jiang Jiyuan quickly picked up the bulletproof vest and put it on, then told them, "This is our unit's new submachine gun, and this is the bulletproof vest. Everyone, get equipped quickly, and we'll head to the riverbank immediately."

Lin Jiu and the others stepped forward and busied themselves getting dressed, and Qin Rui and the others also went up to get dressed.

Jiang Jiyun and his men didn't drive to the riverbank, so the rest of the men took their weapons, got into their cars, and drove towards the river.

Along the way, they saw people fleeing from north to south in fear, carrying simple bags and their wives, children, and elderly relatives.

Looking at the people outside the car, Ni Hong said, "Are we going to repeat the tragedy from a few years ago?"

Jiang Wenming told him confidently, "Definitely not. I believe our team will not let the tragedy repeat itself. But why are there no teams preparing for battle here?"

During the first half of this year, after suffering fierce attacks and blows from the New Fourth Army, the Japanese army was forced to retreat in disarray to the north bank of the Yangtze River.

To everyone's surprise, the New Fourth Army did not station any troops here to defend the place.

The majority of the garrison in Nanjing today are actually former puppet troops who chose to stay and surrender.

They had also inquired and learned that most of the main forces of the New Fourth Army were concentrated in the suburbs of Lishui.

As for the so-called "city defense army" currently in the city, they are nothing more than the spineless puppet troops of the past.

It's easy to imagine that if these guys were actually sent to the front lines to fight, the outcome would be disastrous.

Perhaps before the fighting even begins, they will already be terrified and scatter in all directions. Even if a few die in battle, they will most likely be killed by stray bullets.

That's why, when they saw this team with their own eyes, any remaining thought of joining them vanished instantly.

In other words, Yu Sunian and Ye Yuncheng had no other choice but to take a job guarding the city gate at the car dealership, and they were both temporary workers.

The car slowly drove to the vicinity of the dock and then came to a steady stop.

The place was unusually deserted at the moment, with hardly anyone in sight.

Looking around, all you could see were various abandoned items scattered on the road, a scene of utter chaos.

Near the dock, several managers stood there in a panic, followed closely by thugs.

When they caught a glimpse of a group of people wearing helmets and carrying guns walking towards them, they were terrified and quickly hid behind a mountain of goods piled up nearby, cautiously peeking at the commotion outside.

Qin Heng, who was crouching in the shadows keeping watch, immediately noticed the person who had come. He picked up the phone that Jiang Jiyun had given him, quickly dialed the number, and reported everything he had seen to her in detail.

Just then, through his binoculars, Qin Heng suddenly realized that the newcomers were Jiang Jiyuan and his group. He immediately felt relieved, calmly walked out of his hiding place, and told Jiang Jiyun in the distance.

"Brother, look how handsome I am now!" Qin Rui ran up to Qin Heng and couldn't wait to show off.

Jiang Wenming, who had run over, also focused his attention on the river.

Looking at those practicing rowing skills, he couldn't help but recall the time they crossed the river together years ago, and his heart was filled with emotion.

Meanwhile, Jiang Jiyuan, standing behind, silently blushed slightly.

Because he clearly remembered that he had rowed a boat on the river before, but accidentally lost his way and kept going in circles.

I still remember my sister mocking him back then, saying, "He's all talk and no action, but he's still just standing still."

Jiang Wenxun looked at the people on the boat and asked, "Do you want to row across?"

Zhang An disembarked from the ship and said, "We originally wanted to use a large ship, but the warships over there are eyeing us covetously, and if we go there, we'll only become targets."

Lin Jiu took the binoculars from Jiang Wenming and, looking at the warships, excitedly said, "If only we could seize those things, we could use them to fight the Japanese!"

Jiang Jiyun clapped his hands and said, "Then let's just rob it! As long as Uncle can drive a boat, we'll get it."

Jiang Jiyun followed Jiang Jiyuan, Qin Heng, and Nan Huan in a small awning boat, quietly rowing towards the north bank of the river behind Chen Meng and the others.

Lin Jiu, on the other hand, sailed a large ship carrying Jiang Wenming, Yu Sunian, and their group as support, following the small boat at a distance after they left.

Jiang Jiyun watched as Nan Huan and Qin Heng seemed to have inexhaustible energy; she hadn't even exerted much effort, yet their small boat had already surpassed Xiao Wei's boat.

"Bang bang bang..."

Suddenly, gunshots rang out from ahead, and the people rowing in the middle of the river stopped what they were doing and looked across the river.
