Chapter 31: Righteous Knot Jin Lan

Liu Yizhang listened carefully to Deng Jiaju's teachings, such a heart-to-heart conversation even with his father Liu Dad has never had, but the edification of family learning, like cultural genes, is brought from the roots, is silent, Liu Yizhang has realized that he is very similar to his father since he was sensible, and he has always wanted to be a man who stands up to the sky like his father, open-minded and bright. And for Deng Jiaju, he has more closeness and liking in his heart, Deng Jiaju said a lot of things, Yizhang actually understands, he never breaks or shows impatience, because he knows that Deng Jiaju is an orphan, and the desire and protection of family affection are particularly important, he also thought that it was a matter of time before he left the cavalry brigade, he knew that Wu Xiangsen did not mention the agreement between the two sides after the battle in Eagle Ridge, it was intentional, that is, he wanted to catch himself off guard and force himself to stay by his side. If you don't prepare, you will waste', and getting along with others is particularly important.

"Big brother, you are reluctant to let me leave, and you are afraid of delaying my future, aren't you?" Yizhang put his arm around Deng Jiaju's shoulders, and then comforted, "Big brother, who said that cavalry is chicken ribs? You said? Or did the commander say it? Whoever says it, it's not right! Who said that killing the enemy before the battle is a hero, and transporting supplies is not a hero? Big brother, you know, the living and fighting conditions of our cavalry are much better than those of the infantry, do you know? When I saw the soldiers of the Independent Regiment charging into battle in single clothes in Eagle Ridge, I was shocked and distressed, and later I heard from Staff Officer Shi that many soldiers of the Independent Regiment were lying in the ice and snow when they were hiding at night, and their bodies were only covered with a blanket or straw! Why is this happening? My hometown is donating food and clothing everywhere, why are the soldiers still short of food and clothing? It's not to be transported, Yankees, these bastards, bomb our transport vehicles every day, and most of the materials are destroyed on the road, so the transport troops are even more heroes, since the battle of Eagle Ridge, I used to have the same idea as you, I feel that the cavalry can't make a move, find a way to change this situation, I have an immature idea, big brother, can you listen to it? ”

"My good brother, I know you already have a countermeasure, tell me about it?"

"I want to transform our cavalry brigade into an amphibious combat unit, the first is to transport strategic materials to the main force, I roughly calculated, compared with the big trucks of the transport brigade, we have a lot less transport of a single horse, but we have a lot of horses, there are thousands of horses in the military horse farm, unfortunately there are fewer cavalry, only more than 300 people, our advantage is flexible, the enemy plane is coming, we can ride a horse into the mountains or caves, the car is not good, on the road to dodge, the road is blown up and have to lie down, so the advantage of the cavalry is still obvious. The second is to improve the individual combat ability of our cavalry brigade, just like you said, big brother, our cavalry was the pride of the sky on the domestic battlefield back then, and the infantry only had the share of greed, why is it reversed now? Because the war environment has changed, in the Korean battlefield, most of the battles take place at night and in the mountains and hills, which is really not suitable for cavalry to participate in the war, so I now let the soldiers of the third company learn to fight with me, in order to be able to use it when the short arms are connected, and the ultimate goal is to transform the cavalry into special forces, and the war horse is just a means of transportation, and in addition, there must be some changes in tactics, and we must have our own reconnaissance troops, our own communicators, and our own combat staff officers......"

Liu Yizhang talked endlessly, Deng Jiaju is more and more excited the more he listens, he never thinks about things at the tactical and strategic level, even if he has a little idea, he is looking ahead and backwards, but he can't do it, Yizhang is different, his mind is too easy to use, and his courage is too big, for example, he took Ao Dong and Ao Senjie to such a far away place to conduct reconnaissance, and came back so late as if there was no one, he didn't say a word to the command, and he could act boldly when it was critical, and as he said, the cavalry did not practice horsemanship, but practiced martial arts, Captain Lakshen objected to this, but because of Yizhang's prestige, he could only open his eyes and close his eyes without interfering, although Deng Jiaju didn't understand much, but he believed in Yizhang and knew that he had a purpose in everything he did, so he in turn persuaded his old partner Lakshen, saying that Yizhang is a young man's ambition, and he must have a good place, and the soldiers learn martial arts from him, there are hundreds of benefits and no disadvantages, and now he has listened to Yizhang's bold idea of the cavalry, such as Daigo's empowerment, he suddenly understands that Yizhang is doing his homework for the transformation of the cavalry, This is Liu Yizhang, never talking on paper, but down-to-earth, daring to break through, when you didn't expect it, he had already done it quietly!

"Yizhang, these ideas of yours are a kind of innovation, to tell you the truth, I understand in some places, and I am confused in some places, I have also told you the development history of our Chinese cavalry, very short, not many years, even the saber we use, in the Soviet Union called it 'Chasik saber', in the United States called 'Patton sword', in our country called ' Xuefeng knife', are designed according to different races, General Peng Xuefeng is like you, since childhood martial arts, love horseback riding, proficient in swordsmanship, he designed the Chinese saber, the blade is long, the back of the knife is light and thin, extremely sharp, this is also the innovation of the cavalry. Yizhang, I am really conflicted now, I hope you leave the cavalry brigade because I think you will do more when you go to the military headquarters, but after listening to your thoughts on the amphibious operation of the cavalry, I feel that the cavalry brigade is really inseparable from you. Deng Jiaju was in a dilemma and had no idea for a while.

"Hahaha, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. Big brother, you are in the barracks, obey orders and listen to commands, so don't worry about it! Come, let's get down to business. ”

"What, Yizhang, is there anything more important than this?"

"Of course!" Yizhang pulled Deng Jiaju to kneel on the ground, took off the military kettle, took out the family land wrapped in a handkerchief from his pocket, took out some and sprinkled it into the kettle, shook it, and said to Deng Jiaju, "Big brother, let's not make a blood alliance." This country is my roots, and if you eat the country, you are a member of the Liu family's compound, and you are my Liu Yizhang's eldest brother. After speaking, he took two sips first and handed it to Deng Jiaju.

Deng Jiaju knew in his heart that Liu Yizhang acted as the head of righteousness, in Liu Yizhang's heart, his righteous brother was far more important than the future and fame, he took the kettle, raised his neck and drank it cleanly, the two of them kowtowed three times in the direction of their hometown, Yizhang raised his right hand and solemnly swore an oath, "Today I Liu Yizhang and Deng Jiaju are married to Jinlan on the Korean battlefield, Yizhang prays to the ancestors of heaven and earth, my brothers do not seek to be born on the same day, but to die on the same day, bravely kill the enemy, serve the country, the emperor and the queen of the earth, learn from my heart, if you are treacherous, people and gods will kill together!" ”

Deng Jiaju knelt next to him and didn't know why, he was an orphan, adopted by the Deng family of Shanxi Yushe since he was a child, the Deng family started by selling horses in the Western Regions for several generations, Deng Jiaju was slightly older, and the owner Deng Sanhu saw that he had good muscles, so he gave him the name Deng Jiaju, and has been following the horse team to the west exit, and later the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the Eighth Route Army came to Taihang Mountain, Deng Jiaju joined the army, and was only sixteen years old that year. More than ten years of military career, comrades-in-arms have changed one stubble after another, many people and things are like the past, but it is different for Yizhang, from the first meeting to the present, everything is unforgettable, when sleeping in Jinshanli Bing Station, Yizhang quietly took off his cotton clothes and covered himself at the moment, Deng Jiaju's heart was very warm, this is a new recruit who has just turned eighteen years old and naturally reveals his true temperament......

"Big brother, get up." Yizhang half-knelt and wanted to pull up the tearful Deng Jiaju, Deng Jiaju calmed down his emotions, and also swore an oath, "The ancestors of the Liu family, I, Deng Jiaju, met Yizhang and became brothers, I feel very honored, I ate the soil of the Liu family, recognized the roots of the Liu family, I am the Liu family, I am ten years old, as a brother, I must swear to protect the Yizhang, share weal and woe, advance and retreat together, if you break the oath, people and gods will kill together!" ”
