After learning that there were high-ranking Japanese officials on the " Yun " for a battle meeting, Wang Jiuguang called everyone to prepare for the attack at night. Then, he told everyone who participated in the bombing to go to the shore of the Huangpu River.
Winter and spring alternated, and the north wind of the Huangpu River was particularly cold at night. The waves on the river were turbulent, and the loud sound of the waves drowned out the continuous sound of gunfire not far away.
"Brother Nine, look, it seems like a lot of people are gathering on that battleship!”Yu Likui handed over the binoculars in his hand.
Wang Jiuguang took the binoculars and looked at the light spot. Through the light spot, he could see the Japanese military officers constantly gathering on the aircraft carrier called " Izumo " from the small sampan.
"It looks like they are going to make a big move. They are all high-ranking officers. They are going to hold an important military meeting.”Wang Jiuguang had a rough idea of what was going on after observing through the binoculars.
Then, they gathered everyone together and began to discuss the steps to blow up the warship.
The explosives used to blow up the ship were prepared by Yu Likui.
Speaking of explosives, the Chinese were the ancestors of explosives. In ancient times, an alchemy Taoist accidentally created explosives. As time passed, explosives became a weapon of war in the Tang Dynasty. Then, in the Ming Dynasty, explosives were improved and not only were they fired from cannons, but some people evolved into fire guns, and then invented mines and water mines.
Of course, that was only the initial stage, and the lethality was very small.
In the Qing Dynasty, foreigners invented high explosives.
Along with the appearance of armored warships and submarines, other than torpedoes for submarines, there were also trigger mines. During the Republic of China, China also had mines, but they couldn't be compared to foreign countries. However, the people of China had wisdom.
They had already demonstrated many times in advance how to dive and tie explosives to the Japanese warships.
The waterproof method was based on the principle of a sheepskin raft, where a time bomb was placed inside.
As for the timing function, the alarm clock had been invented in the 18th century, and then it was introduced to China in the 19th century. However, people at that time only used it as a clock.
As time passed and entered the 20th century, the entire world worked hard to research after failing in the war. Finally, time bombs were developed.
Naturally, they were using time bombs.
The meeting ended at around nine o'clock at night. Wang Jiuguang immediately ordered Ma Zhenguo, Li Dasheng, and Tao Bailing to send the explosives to the bottom of the Izumo aircraft carrier by diving.
The three of them accepted the order and took off their clothes. The cold winter and the strong wind on the river made them subconsciously shiver. After shivering a few times, they carried the explosives and jumped into the water, swimming desperately towards the enemy warship.
It was already very cold on the shore, so it was obvious that it was even colder in the river than on the shore. However, Wang Jiuguang saw that the three of them did not flinch at all and were all desperately transporting the explosives over.
The river bank was tens of thousands of meters away from the boat.
In the blink of an eye, the surface of the river turned dark, and Ma, Tao, and Li were nowhere to be seen.
The sound of water splashing on the river bank was like a solo movement.
In the cold night wind, Wang Jiuguang and the ex-Axe Gang members who were now members of the suicide squad were hiding by the river bank. Yu Likui, like everyone else, was also worried about the safety of the three people.
Not long after, someone with sharp eyes saw three figures gradually appear in the waves. Without guessing, he knew that the three of them had returned. He immediately shouted happily," Look, they're back…" He stopped halfway, afraid that he would alert the Japanese.
When the three of them reached the shore, someone immediately brought blankets and liquor over.
The three of them were shivering from the cold. This was the second time in their lives that they had gone "winter swimming". The first time was yesterday, so no one could stand it for the first time.
"How's the situation?" Wang Jiuguang only asked when they were feeling better and started to show concern for the three of them.
"I've already placed it at the bottom of the boat. I guarantee that the group of Japanese officers will visit Jiang Longwang at 10:30. Hehehe!”Li Dasheng joked.
Ma Zhenguo continued," I've only heard of the Sea Dragon King. I've never heard of the River Dragon King. Did a foreign dragon king move here?"”
"This is the Huangpu River, so of course the Jiang Dragon King lives here!”Tao Bailing said.
However, before they could laugh, Yu Likui, who was holding a telescope, immediately pointed at the river and said,"What's that? Why does it look like a sheep's skin?”
Li Dasheng took the binoculars and said anxiously,""If it's not like, then it is. Damn Jiang Lang, he helped the Japanese right after we came back.”
The three of them took off the blanket without hesitation and rushed into the river to grab the sheepskin bag with the time bomb. Then, they quickly swam towards the warship called Izumo.
Although it was called a warship, it was actually a quasi-aircraft carrier.
At this moment, Wang Jiuguang looked at his watch and was shocked."The timer was set at 10:30, and now there are only five minutes left. What should we do?”
"I pray to the heavens that nothing will happen to the three of them!”Yu Likui put his palms together. The others also prayed that nothing would happen to them and that they would return before the explosion.
The people on the shore were worried, and the three of them were also very anxious. It was almost time. If they could not deliver it in time, they might not have the chance to blow up the ship in the future.
The three of them didn't care about their lives anymore. As long as they could blow up the Cloud, even if they died, it would be worth it.
Wang Jiuguang, who was on the shore, stared through the binoculars and shouted in his heart," Brother, don't get into trouble."
Perhaps this was fate, and no one could change the outcome.
When the three of them swam closer and were about to arrive, the timing was accurate.
Then, they heard a boom! Boom! Boom! Rumble!
The explosive bag only had an accident dozens of meters away from the bottom of the Izumo.
With a loud rumbling sound, the explosives exploded.
The three warriors became martyrs on the spot, and a huge wave rose up near the Izumo.
The huge shockwave almost overturned the warship.
As the explosion was a little far away from the battleship, it did not sink. It only cracked a little, and only a little seawater rushed into the cabin.
However, this explosion shocked the Japanese commander-in-chief, Shirakawa Masanori, and some other officers who were holding an emergency meeting on the ship. Their faces were ashen.
When Shirakawa Masanori asked what had happened, a soldier came to report that the ship had been blown up by an unknown person and flooded. Then, he asked the generals to quickly leave the ship and change ships.
Everyone felt as if they had just walked through the gates of hell. Now that they were alive, they naturally had to leave as soon as possible.
Wang Jiuguang and the others on the river bank knew that their three brothers would never come back. They were all in pain.
It was really not worth it for the three of you to sacrifice yourself if you didn't blow up that damn Izumo warship.
However, they were martyrs who sacrificed for the country. The world would never forget them.
……
Xu Qingfeng.
The devils had all landed, but they did not break through the national army's defensive positions.
In the end, perhaps because the Japanese were tired of fighting, they stopped fighting and returned to the boat in the river to rest.
This gave the national army a chance to breathe.
Huang Yonghua of the 19th Route Army was surprised when he first saw Xu Qingfeng. He wanted to talk to him, but because the enemy was too fierce, he could only wait until the battle was over before he could find him.
Now was a chance to catch his breath. Huang Yonghua took the kettle and cigarettes to Xu Qingfeng, who was lying on the ground. He sat down and asked,"I say, kid, you really don't want to live. Why are you back? You're all injured. Why don't you go down and get treated?”
Xu Qingfeng's face turned pale and he smiled bitterly,""Where else can I go? I couldn't stay in the battlefield hospital. Killing the Japanese on the battlefield was the most comfortable. What's the big deal about a little injury? This is my military medal…"
After he finished speaking, he fainted completely.
He was already injured. It was the will to fight the Japanese that allowed him to persist until now. Now that the Japanese had retreated, his body was completely exhausted.
Huang Yonghua panicked and quickly ordered people to carry him down.
Xu Qingfeng's men fainted, but the battle on the battlefield did not stop.
After the bombing, Shirakawa Masanori stepped up his preparations for Shanghai. He learned from the lessons of the previous four commanders 'direct attacks and decided to land from the weak defense of the Liuhe River and attack the defenders stationed in Shanghai from both sides.
On the morning of March 1st, the Japanese army launched an attack on Jiangwan, Naobei, and Miaohang.
They used small chariots, heavy artillery, field artillery, small steel cannons, grenade launchers, and planes to bombard the enemy. The infantry took advantage of the situation to attack. In the end, both sides fought with each other and suffered heavy casualties.
At the same time, Shirakawa Masayoshi ordered the 11th division to take advantage of the weak forces in the Liuhe area to land at Yanglinkou, Qiyakou, and Liubinkou to occupy Liuhe.
In just half a day, the Liu River fell, causing the flanks and rear of the garrison to be seriously threatened.
As a result, Jiang Guangnai had no choice but to order the entire army to retreat to the second line of defense at night (i.e. the line between Jiading and Huangdu). Because it was the time when the two sides stopped fighting, the Japanese army did not notice the retreat of the national army.
The next day, when the Japanese army woke up, they found that the national army had already withdrawn. They took the opportunity to occupy Shanghai, and Shanghai fell on the same day.
March 3rd, the Japanese army occupied Nanxiang and Zhenru, the two military warehouses. In the afternoon, they announced a truce.
The 128 War of Resistance ended.
Two and a half months later.
Xu Qingfeng woke up slowly and looked around. Before he could think further, a stream of disinfectant rushed into his nose and brain, instantly waking him up completely.
He looked around. This ward was a single room. He guessed that the Xu family had booked this place.
Now, he also had the memories of the original owner of this body in his mind. His name was also Xu Qingfeng. Other than being crazy since he was young, he also had some bad habits that rich and evil young people should have.
Of course, he wasn't the kind who bullied the weak, ate, drank, and gambled. Instead, he had a sense of justice.
It was the kind of person who would get someone to beat up the strong when he saw someone bullying the weak to protect the weak.
His bad habit was that he had done almost all the things that naughty children had done. However, he did not provoke those poor people. Instead, he specialized in making fun of people who were rich but not powerful.
For example, if a young man bullied someone, he would bring his men and follow him. He would either throw stones at the person or throw a special firecracker into the pit when the person went to the toilet. The person would be covered in filth.
Also, he had a grandfather named Xu Zhuang. During the late Qing Dynasty, he always failed the examination. In the end, he found out that someone was manipulating it in secret, so he lost confidence in his achievements.
Coincidentally, she met a good friend surnamed Gu. Then, she started a medicinal herb business with this good friend surnamed Gu and another good friend surnamed Cheng.
After many years of studying Western medicine and studying Chinese herbs, they finally opened the first national capital pharmacy in Shanghai in the 14th year of Guangxu.
In the end, in order to make the pharmacy famous, it was named "Chinese and Western Pharmacy". After some development, the pharmacy was changed into a joint stock limited company. The person surnamed Gu was the chairman, and the person surnamed Cheng and Xu Zhuang were one of the directors of this company.
However, that Gu felt that Chinese and Western medicine were too slow to make money. He listened to the nonsense of outsiders and his son's instigation, so he turned the capital accumulated from running a large Chinese and Western medicine store to invest in the flour industry.
At this time, Gu was already over sixty years old, and his two sons were mediocre and incompetent.
He had no choice but to entrust the business of the pharmacy to his younger brother. However, he did not expect that this younger brother did not have a business mind at all. Other than eating, drinking, and gambling, he did not know anything. In the end, the pharmacy declined day by day.
