The old squad leader spoke sadly and angrily as if something was happening right in front of him.

The eyes of the veteran who did not blink, the rifle that he held in his hand and did not let go, and the corpses covered with trenches directly turned into tragic pictures, which kept flashing in front of Li Hao's eyes.

Unconsciously, Li Hao's face had turned pale from disbelief at the beginning, and beads of sweat the size of beans poured out of his forehead.

Having never actually been on the battlefield, he was frightened by the tragic picture described by the old squad leader.

The old squad leader hurriedly comforted: "However, I have been in the Red Army for so many years, and this kind of thing has happened once!" ”

"I hope such a tragic battle will never happen again!"

"Haozi, don't think about it. The cooking squad is definitely waiting for us to cook now, and there must be a fierce battle to be fought in the troops tonight, and it is absolutely impossible to let the comrades fight with the white dogs hungry! ”

Back in the cooking class, the two cauldrons had been set up on top of the freshly dug earthen stove by the remaining cooks.

Boiling water was boiling in each cauldron, and steam was rising upwards.

"Old squad leader, you're finally back...... The water is already boiling, just waiting for you to come back and get rice! "As soon as the two men appeared at the station of the cooking squad, a soldier rushed out.

"The soldiers have a vicious battle to fight tonight, and we must let everyone eat well and eat well~" The old squad leader replied with a serious face.

"Put thirty catties of rice in the pot, and then put thirty catties of sweet potatoes in it, let the comrades eat sweet potato dry rice tonight, eat the dried ones, and add meals!"

"Is Xiao Zhang, who is picking wild vegetables, come back, cut five catties of the twenty catties of bacon we brought, chop them up, and boil them in a pot with the wild vegetables, and let the comrades get stained with meat!"

The conditions of the cooking class are very poor, and the tools are very rudimentary.

Except for three large iron pots, three large spoons, and two kitchen knives, there were no other tools.

As for the seasoning, there was nothing but a bag of coarse salt wrapped like an old squad leader's baby.

and the cooking class I saw when I was a compulsory soldier is completely one in the sky and one underground.

In this case, can the cooking class make a meal that can be swallowed? Li Hao was very skeptical.

Li Hao has been standing by and watching, wanting to help, but he can't do it!

"Okay, Haozi, you go and inform the company commander that the troops can have dinner!" The old squad leader suddenly shouted.

Half of the so-called dry rice is sweet potatoes, and the meat and vegetable soup in the mouth of the old squad leader can only find one or two pieces of meat in a big spoon.

Seeing that the soldiers were eating with relish, Li Hao couldn't help but taste it.

In addition to the salty taste, Li Hao even ate a trace of bitterness.

There is no doubt that this is the emanation of some wild vegetables in the pot.

After gobbling up a bowl of dried sweet potato rice, and barely moving the wild vegetable broth, Li Hao, who was already so hungry that his chest was close to his back, finally felt a lot better.

When he found the old squad leader, he couldn't help but ask, "Old squad leader, do we usually eat these things?" ”

"Usually? Have you forgotten it all? ”

The old squad leader shook his head and replied: "If we had eaten such a good meal in normal times, our Red Army would have been eaten up a long time ago!" ”

"Usually, this pot of rice is up to ten catties of rice, and dozens of catties of sweet potatoes and pumpkin are boiled in a big pot!"

"If you have vegetables, cook a big pot of vegetable soup, and if you don't have vegetables, you can eat them directly with sauce and radish, or sprinkle salt directly into the rice!"

Li Hao finally knew why he was thirteen years old, but he was not as tall as a ten-year-old child in the future.

It turned out that this was not because of his thin body, but because he usually ate too poorly and was malnourished.

Thinking that the Red Army's usual food was much worse than in front of him, Li Hao's high fighting spirit wavered for the first time after the crossing.

If you are malnourished and can't even eat, it is almost impossible to improve your physical fitness through training.

Without a good physical fitness, even if a gun is placed in front of you, you will not be able to hit the enemy.

The killing skills of one body and the life-saving skills on the battlefield have no chance to be played.

On the battlefield where bullets are raining down and gunpowder is filled, you can't even save your life if you don't have the ability, let alone make great achievements and become a general in the future?

The old squad leader didn't see the fluctuations in Li Hao's heart.

With a long sigh, he continued: "Even if you only eat ten catties of grain in one meal, such a day will not last for a few days!" ”

"We have already eaten almost all the food we set out from the base area, and we ate thirty catties just now, and if I remember correctly, there should be fifty catties left. Two meals a day, ten catties of rice per meal, and the remaining grain is only enough to eat for two and a half days! ”

"The troops have been marching and fighting for the past few days, and there is no chance to get food at all!"

"When there is no food, the soldiers can only fight hungry, I don't know how to report to the company commander, it's me who is the leader of the cooking squad who didn't do a good job!"

"What?" Li Hao's heart is even more desperate!

He didn't know exactly what this history was about, but he knew one thing.

At the beginning of the Long March, the troops were chased and beaten by the White Army all the time, and they were in the middle of a battle, and they did not even have a chance to stop and take a breath, let alone engage in food.

If the company really ran out of food, the real situation would definitely be the same as the old squad leader!

The front-line fighters are going to fight hungry, not to mention themselves.

At this time, Li Hao seemed to have guessed why there were 80,000 or 90,000 people in the Red Army's Long March, and only 30,000 people remained after crossing the Xiangjiang River.

There must be a food reason for this.

Without food, the troops can only fight hungry.

No matter how high the morale and fighting spirit are, it is impossible to match the enemy.

Not to mention fighting, even running and retreating is not as good as the enemy.

By then, the Red Army was hungry and weak. In the face of the white dog who caught up, even if he wanted to resist, it was useless, so he could only be captured by them obediently.

Thinking that he was in the rear guard again, even if there was an opportunity to engage in food along the way, the limited food in the hands of the common people along the way was bought by the forward troops and the main force, and when he rushed over, there would definitely be nothing left!

In addition, the rearguard troops have been in the process of turning to war, and they need to suffer greater casualties than other troops, and it is even possible that the whole army will be wiped out in the process of the rear.

In the end, there are absolutely only a handful of people who can make it to Yan'an alive.

It is difficult for veterans in the army to kill Yan'an alive, let alone a doll cook with almost no combat effectiveness!

An idea immediately popped up in Li Hao's mind that surprised everyone.

I can't save my life, what to be a general, it's all utopia!

Although he knew that the final victory would definitely belong to the Red Army, the confidence in his heart to continue to follow the Red Army was disappearing little by little.

The conditions and situation here are too bad, and the first thing to consider before going to bed is whether you are still alive after dawn, and it is not a place for people to stay at all!
