Chapter 13: The Story of the Cannon, Part I
It's the beginning of winter.
In the middle of the night, the cloudless sky is crescent and the crescent moon hangs, and the icy chill covers the land like a curtain.
"I can't hold it, take a break, take a break" put the 'can bucket' in his hand on the ground, sat on the ground with his buttocks, and then took out the kettle and poured it into a big gulp, completely ignoring the face of his college students.
Boom~
In a hurry, the barrel of canned beef was not placed smoothly on the mountain road, so it fell and slammed into the ground, colliding with the gravel on the ground, making a thudding sound.
The barrel made of aerospace aluminum alloy is naturally unscathed.
But the round barrel rolls all the way down due to gravity, and it rolls faster and faster.
"My canned beef" After drinking the water, Erzhu, who didn't have time to catch his breath, hurriedly wanted to get up to stop it, but after walking six kilometers of mountain roads with a canned food bucket weighing more than 50 kilograms, his legs and stomach were trembling now, and as soon as he stood up, the whole person immediately softened.
He just ran out of energy.
Bang ยท
A foot lightly stepped on the rolling can bucket, easily stopping its accelerated rolling.
"Let's take a break, let's eat something" Luo Yun put down the two buckets of cans in his hand, then stood the cans under his feet, and then said to the people in front of him.
"Everyone... Let's take a break, remember to tie the horse well" Tang Ming also gasped, wiped the big man with his head, and said to everyone.
Hearing the news of the break, everyone gasped and put down the bucket in their hands, and learned the lesson of the second pillar, they put it very gently, for fear of following in the footsteps of the second pillar.
Behind them is a slope about 300 meters long, if the bucket of cans rolls down, although the bucket will not be damaged much, it means that they have to carry the bucket to climb the 300-meter slope again.
It's better to get the whole person down.
"Brother Luo Yun, is your canned beef too big" Seeing that the canned bucket was intercepted by Luo Yun, Erzhu didn't even say thank you, but muttered in a complaining tone.
"The bigger the package of this can, the cheaper" casually made up a reason, looking at the two pillars on the ground that were panting and limp like a dog, Luo Yun could only desperately resist the urge to laugh.
The worst physical strength in this group of people is these two pillars, he used to be obsessed with studies, his physical fitness itself was poor, and he was only in the army for half a year, although his physical fitness has improved a little after military training, but the food of the miscellaneous army is poor, so he is still a weak chicken.
So along the way, the second pillar is a funny strength.
The others have been in the army for many years compared to others, and their physical strength is not bad, carrying a canned bucket of 55 kilograms, although it is difficult, they can barely hold on to it after resting and walking along the way.
The second pillar is the one who has to take ten steps to stop cooking, or the kind that can't be started for a long time.
Originally, Tang Ming asked Erzhuzi to lead the horse, but he was a horse with a good talent for learning to ride a horse, but the horse was a scumbag, and he couldn't control it at all when the five horses were in a herd, and after several times the things on the horse's back fell, he could only honestly come over to fight the canned food barrel.
In order to save effort along the way, Erzhuzi thought of various ways to push, pull and roll... A bucket of canned food was played with all kinds of tricks by him, but the physical foundation was not good, and there was still a feeling that it was difficult for an old cow to pull a heavy cart.
It was precisely because of the drag of the two pillars that everyone only walked six kilometers in more than six hours.
As for Luo Yun, he could easily carry three or five barrels without a problem, but he only resisted two barrels.
Because he found that Erzhuzi couldn't bear the appearance of resisting all the way, it was like a movie comedy, or the kind with excellent viewing effect.
"Let's lighten the burden on Erzhuzi, open his bucket and eat it a little" Holding back the smile in his heart, Luo Yun said something that made Erzhuzi smile.
"That's right, let's eat more, Brother Luo has a treat, let's not be polite" Hearing this, Erzhuzi seemed to have strength again in an instant, and he immediately stood up happily after a few minutes of rest, and began to sell on his own.
Although they have only known each other for less than a whole day, everyone is already extremely familiar, especially Erzhuzi, after a period of dead skin and face entanglement, Luo Yun was forced to accept him as a little brother.
"You open it yourself," Luo Yun smiled gloomily.
"Howler, Brother Ro"
Aluminum cans are sealed with large and small lids, which simply means that the cans are divided into two lids, one large and one small. The large lid is tightly sealed, while the small lid is easy to open, and the small can lid is twisted open by dividing the two pillars by two.
Take out the metal lunch box, open the lid, pour the canned beef into the can, and in an instant a rich smell of butter permeates the nasal cavity of this person, this breath is full of greasy taste, if it is placed in the future generations, it is definitely a lack of even smell, but in the face of Tang Ming, who have not seen the oil star for a long time, this is simply the most fragrant taste in history.
"This is the smell of beef, the smell of beef, the last time I ate beef was fifteen years ago" A person took a deep breath and recalled with a smile on his face, "When we were young, we secretly cut off the tail of the landlord's cow and cooked it"
"Didn't get in trouble with the landlord's family?" Someone asked curiously.
More than ten years ago, the landlord in the countryside was the real emperor, he could do whatever he wanted, killing people was not illegal, and robbery was a daily routine.
"So the landlord beat up his stupid son"
"Haha, this cow's tail is a good deal"
After walking more than ten miles of mountain roads with canned food buckets, everyone was already hungry, and they also took out their lunch boxes and surrounded them.
"Make a fire, hot cans taste better," Luo Yun commanded everyone to start a fire to cook canned food.
At present, everyone has forgotten their fatigue and joined the army of boiled beef.
"Lao Cheng, you go to the guard, I'll cook beef for you" At this time, Tang Ming was still very vigilant and arranged a guard post.
"Yes" One of the oldest soldiers in the line raised his gun and stepped onto a commanding height.
On the rugged mountain road, the flames rose up, a simple wooden frame was erected, and a dozen iron lunch boxes full of beef were hung on the beams, and everyone sat around the fire to warm up and breathe in the aroma of beef.
"Okay, it's ready to eat" Luo Yun pinched his nose and silently took two steps back.
The iron lunch box of the devil in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War was of good quality, and in just ten minutes, the beef inside was heated to boiling, and the aroma of the beef was even more fragrant at the temperature.
The rich greasy taste made him really unappetizing, and this thing was much worse than a fried chicken bucket.
"I ate cowhide when I fled the famine, and beef is the first time I have eaten beef" A man couldn't wait to pick up the lunch box, and regardless of the hot beef pieces, he stuffed it directly into his mouth.
"Shhhhhh Whew..."
"Delicious"
