Chapter 18: Building a Boat to Cross the Strait (1)

  Long Fanglan saw no ships and couldn't help but feel a bit flustered: "What should we do? Are we going back?"

  "Don't worry, I remember that the abandoned British warehouse had many empty oil drums. We can use those to drift across. Which place is closest on the other side?" When Tianhu guarded the third defense line, he used the gasoline from the abandoned British warehouse to blow up a joint fleet of Japanese naval and infantry troops, and he personally went to that warehouse before, so he remembered it clearly.

  "New Mountain, Johor Bahru of Malaya, we can land from Johor Baru. Can petrol drums be used?"

  "Now we can only try, otherwise going back is definitely a dead end." Tianhu said as he pulled Long Fanglan towards the abandoned British gasoline depot.

  There were indeed seventeen or eighteen empty gasoline drums in the abandoned British army warehouse.

  Tianhu patted those empty gasoline drums, furrowed his brow and said: "How are we going to connect them together?"

  Long Fanglan looked at the gasoline barrel again and turned around to gaze out at the vast ocean, unsure of what to do.

  The petrol drums are tied together, and it's uncertain whether they can cross the Johor Strait. If the petrol drums cannot be tied together, it is impossible to cross the Johor Strait to go to New Mountain. But here there are no ropes or twines, how can we tie up the petrol drums?

  Tianhu gazed at the darkening sky and then looked at the weak Dragon Fragrance, who was involuntarily hugging her chest with both hands in the sea breeze, and his heart grew anxious.

  Tianhu walked out of the warehouse and looked around for some rope to tie up the gasoline drums, but couldn't find any anywhere.

  "It seems that drifting with gasoline barrels won't work." Tianhu walked back to the warehouse and said to Long Fanglan, "We have to think of another way."

  "Tian Hu, otherwise you can drift across with a gasoline barrel yourself, the Johor Strait is not wide, with your skills, hugging a gasoline barrel to drift across should be no problem."

  "How about you?"

  "Just don't bother about me. I went out on the streets today and saw that the Japanese only tease women, there's no danger to life. I'll stay in Singapore waiting for your news."

  "No way. I heard that after the Japanese occupied Penang, women were all burned alive for their amusement. These bastards are not human at all, what if you accidentally fall into the hands of the Japanese? If we leave, let's go together, or else I won't leave either."

  "Tianhu, listen to me," Long Fanglan said anxiously. "It's not that I don't want to leave, it's just that I can't. If I weren't holding you back, you would have found a way out long ago."

  "You say that, I'll go back to Niucheshui and fight it out with the Japanese devils."

  "But the sky is getting darker and darker, if we can't find a way, we won't be able to reach Johor Bahru by tomorrow. If we drift into the middle of the sea when dawn breaks, there are Japanese warships everywhere on the sea, and we will all become their living targets."

  "You don't have to say anything. Just wait here and don't go anywhere, I'll be right back."

  "Where are you going?"

  "Just don't wander off." Tiān Hǔ didn't explain any further and strode out of the warehouse with large steps.

  After a while, Tianhu brought over a large pile of quilts and excitedly told Long Fangran: "There's a way to connect the gasoline drums."

  "Did you run to the hospital and bring back all the sheets there?" Long Fanglan said in surprise.

  "Uh-huh." Tiantiger nodded while throwing the sheet down to the ground, then picked one up and tore it in half from the middle.

  "Tianhu, I have a better way, which can ensure we will definitely pass through smoothly."

  "What's the solution?"

  "Let's make another trip to the hospital, to retrieve the canvas for the shed and the stretcher that was left there, as well as some quilts. If we tie the stretcher to a gasoline barrel, put a few quilts on top, and use the canvas to make a sail, wouldn't it become a very comfortable sailboat? That way, all we need to do is take advantage of the sea breeze, and by tomorrow morning, we can easily reach New Mountain. What do you think?"

  "That's great!" Tianhu excitedly gave Longfanglan a tight hug.
