Chapter XXXVIII
"Sister, Xiaochun, why did you get here", Zhao Xiaodong hugged his sister tightly in his arms and asked eagerly, Xiaochun was almost out of breath when she was hugged by her brother, and her tears burst out of her eyes: "Brother, I was almost eaten by a wolf, and I almost couldn't see my brother." Zhao Xiaodong let go of his sister, her sister was already a mature woman, and she had an inexplicable urge to hold her sister's body. He looked at his sister carefully, and in the firelight, he only felt that his sister was a little thinner than a few days ago, and nothing else had changed, only that his face was scratched by a few branches, but fortunately there was no bleeding.
"Brother, we have found a konjac that can be eaten, but if you eat it in the wrong way, it will kill people, so I desperately want to find my brother, so that my brother's troops can reduce casualties, this plant called konjac, if it is made properly, it is still delicious, but don't eat it raw", Xiaochun finished saying everything she wanted to say at once, looking at her brother, she suddenly thought, she didn't ask her brother how to be with those wild people. She asked curiously, "Yes, brother, why did you drink with these wild people?" Zhao Xiaodong smiled and said, "Be light, don't let them hear, they are not savages, and it is taboo for others to call them savages." "And who are they?" Xiaochun became more and more curious.
Brother Zhao Xiaodong took back his wine glass from the young soldier just now, and said to Xiaochun: "Come, Xiaochun, take a sip of wine first, suppress the shock, and then tell you slowly." Xiaochun took a sip of the wine glass handed over by his brother, it was sweet, like rice wine in his hometown, and then he saw that the wine glass in his hand was actually polished with jade, which was exquisite. It is estimated that that the place produces the same beautiful jade as Tengchong. Zhao Xiaodong drank his sister's remaining half of the wine and began to slowly talk about his adventures:
"This is the village of the Kachin tribe, the people outside the mountain call them savages, the people here are the slowest evolving group of people in the Kachin tribe, they rarely go out of the village, live a primitive life of sunrise and sunset, slash-and-burn farming. However, they still have a relatively mild personality and do not attack the personnel of the army easily.
This time, the men of the elder brother's army broke into their stockade by mistake and got into an argument with them over a wild boar. Moreover, when they saw the heavily armed soldiers, they had an inexplicable fear, so the men of the whole village went out and confronted us with powerful bows and crossbows.
When the elder brother arrived at the confrontation site, the guns and crossbows of both sides were already aimed at each other, and the situation was very critical. Coincidentally, there were three young people among the Kachin who knew their elder brother, and as soon as the elder brother showed up, the other people shouted, 'Zhao, Zhao'. With this shout, all the Kachin people laid down their weapons and walked out, and the elder brother remembered that the elder brother had saved the lives of the three little ones.
When my brother first entered Burma, the local armed forces there listened to the instigation and provocation of the Japanese, and often harassed our large troops. It turns out that the local armed forces here have taken them captive to be used as cannon fodder, just like we have drawn strong men there. The elder brother untied the rope that bound them one by one, and gave each of them a pair of pants, the three little ones all smiled happily, and kept using their body language to express their gratitude, and the elder brother watched them leave, and the three little ones actually turned around in three steps to do the action of thanks.
When the elder brother saw the Kachin people lay down their arms, he raised his right hand and stood in the open. 'Zhao, Zhao', the three young men pulled an old man to his brother. The old man's eyes were bright, and he was probably the leader of their tribe. The old man let go of the young man's hand and danced alone, presumably inviting his brother to drink in their village. No, my brother will be their guest, hahaha, a bloody conflict has been avoided like this, brother cow. ”
"Zhao, Zhao" The three young Kachin people came over to entertain the head of the Zhao regiment and poured them wine. After pouring the wine, he saw Xiaochun next to the head of Zhao, smiled in a friendly manner, and made a very obscene move in Xiaochun's opinion, Zhao Xiaodong knew that it meant that they admired it very much.
