Our motherland has a vast territory, rich resources, a long history and cultural heritage, and many star-like cities standing in the southeast and northwest of the motherland, becoming the cultural and economic centers of various places.

In our traditional culture, there is a culture that is very interesting, and that is riddles! There are riddles and answers. When you can't guess, you scratch your head, and when you know the answer, you suddenly understand. This is the fun of riddles!

So, what happens when a riddle meets a city name? Guess a few!

Everyone laughs at you - Qiqihar; going out to wear a scarf - Baotou; wrestling with Tieguai Li - Huludao (inverted); sky terminal - Tianjin; nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium - Hefei; sea oasis - Qingdao; ships leaving the port -

Shanghai; reading letters - Kaifeng, wearing cotton-padded jackets in summer - Wuhan...

These riddles are easy to solve, and the riddles are not bad! But there is a place where the riddle is not so good - Auntie! Can you guess where it is?

That is - Mengyin! Think about that...

It is April 11, 1938 in the parallel world. Some of the cities mentioned above have fallen, some are undergoing fierce fighting, and some are actively preparing for war...

At this time, in Taierzhuang, the 290,000-strong army began to beat up the little devils. The anti-Ninth Route siege in southeastern Shanxi also reached an important stage, and the Battle of Xuzhou was about to begin...

Of course, if there is no big deviation...

Now, Hu Yizhou led the soldiers of the Special Forces Reconnaissance Company to the vicinity of the Yellow River north of Zhengzhou and Kaifeng. But in Ma Tian, ​​the soldiers of the security regiment were no longer visible!

Hu Yizhou received intelligence from his superiors that a regiment of Japs had been able to enter Liao County and had the intention of marching towards Ma Tian.

Therefore, the 2nd Battalion, 1st Company, 3rd Company, 3rd Battalion, 1st Company, 3rd Company, Artillery Company, Guard Company and Logistics Support Battalion of the security regiment that had completed the harassment work were ordered by Hu Yizhou to be transferred to Sucheng Township, more than 20 kilometers north of Jiuzhaigou.

This place happens to be in the valley of the west source of the Qingzhang River. If the Japanese attack Matian from Liao County southward, this is the only way to pass!

If the Japanese attack from here, Hu Yizhou doesn't expect to be able to block his regiment, but he must delay a little to buy some time for the 4th Cavalry Division and the guerrillas here in Matian to get rid of this half-disabled 16th Division brigade!

That's right, there were originally two brigades with reinforced artillery. After these days of unlimited harassment, only half of the brigades were left able to fight!

Of course, this is just to guard against a possible Japanese attack! But only by being prepared can we be safe, right? Put these companies in the north, with the Fourth Cavalry Division and the guerrilla detachment in the east to support them, and also put the troops in the south and on the small roads to support them.

Yes, Jiuzhai is very safe!

In fact, the little devils who came down from the north divided their forces in Hexiyang in the north. They passed through Heshun County and captured Laliao County according to the original plan. The other way was diverted to attack Qinquan Town on the east source of the Qingzhang River.

Come.

Of course, there is no need to worry about the Japs Hu Yizhou in Qinquan Town. Two detachments of the Eighth Route Army and a main force group are blocking him!

Thanks to the radio in his hand, Hu Yizhou can still command his team from such a long distance.

From Anyang to the bank of the Yellow River in the south of Xinxiang, the straight-line distance is more than 100 kilometers. Hu Yizhou and the others walked for three days. This march was not slow, and certainly not fast. The main reason was that during the period, they had to bypass some Japanese occupation forces.

Counties, cities and towns, bypassing some river mouth intersections...

Why did Hu Yizhou come here?

Water has a source and trees have roots. There is a reason why Hu Yizhou led the special warfare reconnaissance company to Zhengzhou!

His own sulfonamides appeared in the Japanese hospital. This was definitely a big event! So when Hu Yizhou reported to his family, he decided to go to Xi'an City first! He didn't want to wait for the anti-Nineth Route siege to end before going there. How many days earlier had he gone?

It's a good day to solve some problems.

So the question is, how to get to Xi'an City? You can walk there, but it's too tiring! It's more refreshing to take the train!

So where can I get on the train? It has to be the train station here in Zhengzhou! From here, take the Longhai Line westbound, all the way to Xi'an!

However, there are two problems before Hu Yizhou and others! One is how to cross the Yellow River? The other is whether to engage in Japanese logistics and other things before crossing the Yellow River!

Well, the key is to cross the Yellow River. It depends on whether Hu Yizhou wants to cause trouble!

So how to cross the Yellow River? You still have to find a ferry and use a ferry boat to cross it! Even if it is the dry season of the Yellow River, Hu Yizhou dare not lead people to swim across it!

Why can't I swim across it? The reason is very simple. The water of the Yellow River looks calm, but there are too many whirlpools under the water! I accidentally sucked it in...

Even the banks of the Yellow River are not safe! There are often vertical sand pits, and I don’t know how they were formed! In short, if anyone accidentally steps on them, they will immediately bury you...

Well, although the Yellow River is the mother river of the Chinese nation, no one wants to sleep in the mother's arms forever!

So, is there no bridge to cross the river? There is indeed one! It’s in Zhengzhou!

It's a pity that at this time, the Zhengzhou Railway Bridge had been blown up by Han Paopao's order! Although the bombing was not complete and some parts were still usable, it could not pass people after all!

It is also worth mentioning that this long-distance running general has been killed by the principal, and Han Paopao finally achieved his fame in history...

What's more, although the Japs can't attack south from the railway bridge, they still have to be prepared for the Chinese army to attack north from here! Therefore, there are quite a few Japs guarding the north of the Yellow River Bridge!

In addition, in early March, the Japanese artillery troops raised artillery observation balloons directly on the north bank of the Yellow River and bombed the Gongxian Arsenal.

Gong County is just west of Zhengzhou. Now this group of artillery is moving eastward, preparing to join the equipment sequence of the 14th Division stationed in Xinxiang. Hu Yizhou is still considering whether to get this artillery!

However, the 14th Division is not easy to mess with, and if you don't get it right, they will get you involved!

Speaking of the 14th Division, you may not know much about it, but at this stage, everyone is familiar with its division commander! Those who like to eat dog meat hot pot should read here! What is the last name of his division commander - Tu - Fei -

round!

That's right, it's that Doi Yuan! The one and a half divisions defeated 12 divisions by Doi Yuan!

Although Hu Yizhou really wanted to meet this old devil and even kill him! But considering the historical process, he had better forget it! Otherwise the book will be gone! So the current situation is that if you want to cross the Yellow River, don't wave.

, quickly find a ferry to cross!

And here in Zhengzhou there is a ferry that is well known to future generations - Huayuankou!

The railway bridge is gone, but you can still cross the Yellow River here, as long as you have a boat!

So, should we cross the Yellow River from here?
