The eyes of Xie Tian and others moved inch by inch on the sand table. This sand table only had mountains and rivers within a radius of 200 miles from Peiping to Tianjin, and was made in relatively detail.
"Found it, here." Zhao Gang excitedly pointed at a place on the sand table and shouted.
Seeing where Zhao Gang was pointing, Xie Tian couldn't help but curse: "Damn it, it was right under my nose, but you discovered it first."
Zhao Gang laughed and said: "The commander-in-chief has a far-sighted vision, and it is normal for him not to see what is under his nose."
People burst into laughter. Does this have anything to do with having a far-sighted vision? Um?
Xie Tian laughed: "Director Zhao, you have reached the end of your career and can't be promoted anymore, so it's useless for you to flatter me. At most, I will reward you with an extra bowl of wine. It's right here, Ziya River. , cut it off, let it stop flowing, and the Jihe River and the South Canal will be dry up in three to five days at most. By then our tanks can drive straight in and drive all the way to the Haihe River."
By the Haihe River, we have already entered the city center of Tianjin. As for the Yongding River, Chaobai River, Beiyun River, Jiangan River, Qinglongwan River, Jiyun River, and Jinzhong River, you can leave them alone for now. They have all been brought to the city. In the center, those rivers have turned into natural chasms that block the escape of the little devils. It will be difficult for them to cross these rivers alive.
Xie Tian turned around and slapped the silly Gao Ernuo on the shoulder: "Ernuo, your first contribution is to liberate Tianjin. Tell me what reward you want."
The second-year high school boy was stunned for a long time before he realized what was happening. He chuckled and said, "I want to get a wife."
"Go away, this can't help you, just find a way on your own."
Watching the river water level drop day by day, the Japanese troops defending the Jihe position began to panic.
The People's Liberation Army troops on the other side of the river were visible to the naked eye. The two sides had been shelling each other for more than ten days, but the size of the People's Liberation Army troops continued to grow. The more they shelled the red flags, the more tanks they fired.
These damn beggars are fighting with the landlords. If the Japanese army fires one artillery shell, it will be immediately replaced by ten artillery shells from the People's Liberation Army. The artillery positions simply don't dare to stay. After firing one artillery shell, the artillerymen have to hurry up. Pull the cannon and move the position, otherwise disaster will be waiting for them.
Every day, we not only have to stare wide-eyed at the artillery bombardment of the People's Liberation Army, but also stare wide-eyed at the raids of the People's Liberation Army aircraft in the sky.
The density of PLA aircraft raids is getting higher and higher. It is obvious that the PLA has built an airport in Jinghai.
The take-off and landing of propeller-type aircraft does not have high requirements on the airport runway. Just a few hundred meters of flat land can be used for the take-off and landing of aircraft.
What frightened the Japanese army the most was the drop in the water level of the river. The 800-meter water surface was their biggest reliance on resisting the People's Liberation Army's attack. However, in just a few days, the wide Jihe River had turned into a small ditch. I don't know how many years. The river bed, which has never seen the sun, is exposed little by little, and any bubble is crowded with fish, and even big fish weighing dozens of kilograms can be seen.
Damn it, I can't control that much anymore, I have to be a dead ghost before I die.
Soldiers from the Japanese army, the Mengzi Army and the People's Liberation Army who were transferred to Tianjin to assist in the defense ventured out of their positions to catch fish on the gradually drying riverbed. The closest distance between the two sides was only a few hundred meters away, and they could even hear each other's voices clearly. Sporadic fighting also occurred.
Hearing the gunshots, Xie Tian didn't pay much attention at first, but when he heard the gunshots coming one after another, Xie Tian couldn't help but frowned and asked, "What's going on with the gunshots?"
The enemy and we are facing each other across the river. The distance of 800 meters has long exceeded the effective range of the rifle. It is normal for one or two shots to be fired occasionally, but the gunfire outside does not sound like one or two shots fired occasionally. It is a bit like It was company- and platoon-sized troops engaging in firefights.
Zhao Gang ran out to ask, and after a short time he came back with a helpless expression: "The soldiers went to the river to catch fish and started fighting with the Japanese and Mongolian troops on the opposite side. Two soldiers were injured. I have given them orders. Withdrawn."
"Fuck, go take a look." Xie Tian cursed, grabbed the telescope on the side and walked outside the tent.
Naturally, Xie Tian not only wanted to see how these bastards could start a war over a fish, but he was also more concerned about the decline in the river water.
It's too slow. The Ziya River has been cut off for five days, and the water in the reduced river has not completely dried up.
In fact, this is already quite fast. Most areas in Tianjin are composed of impact plains with gentle terrain. Such terrain is conducive to water storage but not conducive to drainage. After five days of drying up the river, it is already very good to see the river bed. This is There is a water surface of 800 meters. Originally, the deepest water depth can reach three meters. What do you think after being able to see the river bed for five days?
Xie Tian stood on the river embankment and raised his telescope. The original 800 meters of water now only had less than 50 meters of water left. A large area of the river bed was exposed and filled with large and small puddles.
Well, there are a lot of fish, and they are so densely packed in the puddles that even those with trypophobia dare not look directly at them.
A dozen soldiers were coming up from the river beach carrying large baskets full of fish. Two soldiers were injured, not seriously, one on the arm and the other on the buttocks.
Xie Tian glared at the soldiers who climbed up the river embankment with a dark face. When the dozen soldiers saw Xie Tian and other leaders standing on the river embankment, they felt guilty and wanted to run away.
Xie Tian shouted with a straight face: "Come here."
A dozen soldiers grinned and walked quickly to Xie Tian and others, put down their weapons and stood at attention to salute.
Xie Tian looked at these dozen people, then at the fish in the basket, and cursed: "Damn it, will you die if you eat less fish? Huh? Which army are you from? Let your regiment commander and division commander Run to see me.”
One of the monitors grinned and looked at Xie Tian and whispered back: "We are @#!￥%"
"Speak louder, I can't hear you clearly."
"Report to the Commander-in-Chief, we are from the cooking squad of the theater headquarters."
"Uh, damn it." Xie Tian was criticized for being in the cooking class of the theater headquarters, so damn I am your top leader.
Xie Tian raised his foot and kicked it: "Go, go, go, damn, if I see you risking your lives for these bastards again, I will order all the staff in the headquarters to only eat pickles and dumplings for three meals a day."
Zhao Gang hurriedly waved his hand to the cooking squad leader and ordered: "Take them to the health worker quickly. They are not allowed to fish anymore in the future. Do you hear me?"
"Yes", the cooking squad leader hurriedly picked up the fight and ran away with a dozen of his men.
Zhao Gang grinned and saluted Xie Tian: "Commander-in-Chief, it was me who failed to restrain them. I will reflect on this."
Xie Tian stared at Zhao Gang speechlessly.
It's none of your business. If I want to scold someone, I'm going to scold the General Logistics Minister. You, the Chief of General Staff, are just blindly participating in this.
At this time, a gunshot suddenly sounded from not far away. Zhao Gang was startled and instinctively blocked Xie Tian with his body. Xiao Qi, Hu Zhiyong and the other guards even drew their weapons reflexively.
