In the tea bowl village, more than a dozen well-dressed new mounds have been erected......

With red eyes, the chestnut group standing in front of more than a dozen well-dressed mounds led all the martial arts team members to bow deeply, and it took a long time before turning around, looking at the martial arts team members standing in front of him, and whispering in a dumb voice: "Comrades, in order to protect the villagers and the safe transfer of food, our martial arts team has sacrificed more than 20 comrades!" Among them, there are old comrades who have fought for many years, and there are also new comrades we recruited in Dawu Village! Whether it is an old comrade or a new comrade, when fighting against the devil, they all show heroic and tenacious, and all of them are ...... Attaboy! ”

Taking a deep breath, the group of chestnuts who forced themselves to calm down paused for a while before they continued to speak: "According to the old rules of our team, after every battle, there must be a post-battle summary meeting!" Today's post-war summary meeting, I feel that it should be held in front of these comrades who have sacrificed their lives...... Let them hear it too....... First of all, I'm going to review! As the captain of the martial arts team, I underestimated the enemy's situation, and I was careless when conveying the news of receiving food to the villagers, which allowed the devil to get the news that we were distributing food in Wangjiagou......"

Before he finished speaking, Mo Tianliu, who was standing in front of the chestnut group, had already twisted his neck and interrupted the chestnut group's words: "Big boss, you can't open your mouth and take the fault on yourself every time you have this and that meeting, this is unfair!" Let's distribute grain in Wangjiagou, and don't rely on the villagers in various villages to spread the news, so we can send out the small 100,000 catties of grain in the Year of the Monkey? If we really rely on our martial arts team to send it one by one, I'm afraid that before half of the food is sent, many people will starve to death in ten miles and eight townships in Qingle County! As the old saying goes, if there are too many people, they will be miscellaneous, and many of these people know that our martial arts team is distributing food in Wangjiagou, and the devil must be able to listen to the wind, so there is a sneak attack on Wangjiagou! No matter where you go, big boss, you can't be blamed for this! ”

Waving his hand at Mo Tianliu, who was full of unevenness, the chestnut group said to Mo Tianliu in harmony: "I am the captain of the martial arts team, and I am still a member of the Communist Party, so I have to supervise myself with higher standards than ordinary comrades......"

Seeing that the chestnut group continued to criticize himself with some stubbornness, Mo Tianliu opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything more. When this post-war summary meeting, which was not too long, ended, Mo Tianliu quickly stretched out his hand and patted Sha Bangcui, who was standing beside him: "Go and find some food and water for the big boss!" We escorted the villagers from behind the Wutong Temple to the foot of Shuiyang Village, and then returned to the Chawan Village, several days of hard work, the big bosses are almost the same as water and rice, and the iron man can't stand such a torment......"

Agreeing in a muffled voice, Sha Bangcui turned around and ran towards the room, but after a moment's effort, he grabbed a few grains and hard buns, held a bowl of hot water, and cautiously walked towards Mo Tianliu.

grabbed the group of chestnuts who were still explaining the follow-up work to a few old martial arts team members, and Mo Tianliu unceremoniously pressed the group of chestnuts on a rough wooden bench and sat down: "Big boss, big things are not in a hurry at this moment!" I'll let the mallet get you some food, and you'll have the strength to do the rest of the work after you've eaten and drunk!" ”

Looking at Sha Bangcui, who carefully delivered dry food and hot water to him, and then at Mo Tianliu, who was squatting beside him, staring at him seriously, the chestnut group no longer shirked, reached out and took the food and water handed over by Sha Bangcui, and devoured it to eat and drink.

Turning his head to look at the martial arts team members who were busy with the work at hand in the tea bowl village, Mo Tianliu couldn't help but sigh slightly, and said as if talking to himself: "I fought hard with the devil, and our Qingle County martial arts team lost half of the people...... This is a ...... Lose money! I don't know how many more people Commander Li can send to us after knowing about this......"

After eating up the dry food sent by Sha Bangcui, the chestnut group slowly drank the hot water, and said to Mo Tianliu in a hoarse voice: "Tianliu, what are you thinking about?" ”

Drooping his head in a daze, Mo Tianliu replied in a low voice: "Big boss, I'll tell you the truth...... Although the little devils are all under the control of Wang Ba, their ability to fight is really not bad! Not to mention those brothers who joined the martial arts team from Dawu Village with me, that is, the old people you brought with you, I see that there are many devils who can't stop them! The big boss, if we have to fight to the death with the devil in the future, then ....... Commander Li, can you send some more people to us? We can't do the little devil one-on-one, then let's just two-on-one, three-on-one, don't believe in the whole immortal little devil! ”

After taking a few sips of hot water, the chestnut group shook his head slightly: "There are only those old comrades around Commander Li, if the comrades who died in the martial arts teams on the ground in southern Hebei Province sacrificed, they all had to rely on the transfer of people from Commander Li's side, I am afraid that in less than two months, Commander Li will become a bare-bones commander!" ”

"Then we only have about twenty men left, and this has to count the injured...... Big boss, we still have to fight with devils in the future, what should we do if there is no Marco? ”

Holding his arms and squatting beside Mo Tianliu and the chestnut group, Sha Bangcui responded to Mo Tianliu's words without staring: "If there is no one, go back to the village to solicit it!" Didn't we just come out of Dawu Village? As long as you are bold and don't make mistakes, you can always practice the ability to fight, and you won't necessarily be much worse than others when the time comes......."

glared at Sha Bangcui fiercely, Mo Tianliu was just about to open his mouth to answer, but the chestnut group sitting on the wooden stool had already put down the water bowl in his hand, looked at Mo Tianliu and said in a low voice: "Tianliu, you have a little bit of flowery intestines, and you take it out from time to time to play with it....... Aren't you too tired to panic? Is it pondering the difficulty of going back to Dawu Village to report the news to the families of those comrades who sacrificed? ”

was told by the chestnut group, Mo Tianliu's face suddenly turned red, and he nodded curtly: "Big boss, I really don't want to play tricks in front of you....... At the beginning, more than a dozen people left Dawu Village and joined the martial arts team, and it was only less than half a year of hard work, and they lost several ...... They are all villagers in the village, who grew up peeing and playing with mud since childhood, and every family has given me food! Can ...... now I'm still here, they're gone, how can I tell someone......"

Sighing slightly, the chestnut group squinted his eyes and said quietly: "Tianliu, I understand your current mood!" The fellow villagers and brothers who participated in the revolution with me back then are still left...... Not much! Sometimes I wonder what I can tell when I go home and see the families of my fellow villagers and brothers who died on the day of the victory of the revolution. ”

"Sacrificed for the revolution? Fought bravely and died a glorious death? When I say this, there is nothing wrong with the truth, but after all, he is a big living person....... No matter what I say, this man is gone! Sometimes, I wish the sacrifice was me......"

"Tianliu, I have participated in the revolution for so many years, and I have seen many comrades shed blood and sacrificed, and I have figured out a truth - the comrades who have sacrificed cannot be allowed to sacrifice in vain, and the living people must finish and do well what they want to do, even if it is difficult, they must persist in the revolution to the end!"

Gritting his teeth fiercely, Mo Tianliu stood up suddenly, and whispered to the chestnut group in a muffled voice: "Big boss, don't talk about it...... I see what you mean by hard! After a while, I went to clean up the things left by the brothers who came out of Dawu Village, and then rushed back to Dawu Village to report to their families...... Stick mallets, come with me! ”

Nodding towards Mo Tianliu, the chestnut group slowly stood up from the wooden stool, and said in a hoarse voice: "Tianliu, you can be conscious and reasonable, this is a good thing!" But the matter of going back to Dawu Village to report the news to the families of the sacrificed comrades really can't let you go with the mallet to finish it! I summoned people from Dawu Village, and I have to go to Dawu Village anyway. Explain the situation to the families of the comrades who sacrificed back then! Meantime...... It is also necessary to implement the issue of the treatment of martyrs! ”

"The treatment of martyrs? What's that saying? ”

"All revolutionary comrades who sacrificed their lives to fight devils, if conditions permit, our team must take care of their families! If you are in the old base area, you will naturally be able to act in accordance with the policies and rules and regulations of our Communist Party! But now we can't get a firm foothold in the southern Hebei region, and the base area of Tujia Village has just had a rough appearance....... It can only be said that try to provide some care for the martyrs' families - stick mallet, according to the number of comrades in Dawu Village who sacrificed, each person ...... Two hundred catties of grain, try to pick up fine grain! ”

Standing up with his arms folded, Sha Bangcui whispered to the chestnut group: "There are two families that can only have a son, what can I do after eating two hundred catties of fine grain?" Both of them planted rocky slopes, and their families lacked labor......"

Nodding towards Sha Bangcui, the chestnut group thought for a moment before saying to Sha Bangcui: "This point is fortunately brought up by the mallet - we not only have to take care of the immediate affairs of the martyr's family, but also think about their lives in the future!" Tianliu, when we took down Chawanzhai, we should have seized a batch of floating wealth, right? ”

"Is it some ocean and something worth a few dollars, and they are also distributed to those martyrs' families?"

"Bring them all, and when the time comes, hand them over to Mrs. Jiang, and use these floating wealth to exchange for labor in Dawu Village, and farm and collect grain for the martyrs' families!"

"The big boss, after settling down these lost brothers' families, what about our recruitment? Can't you delay this? ”

"This thing...... The Eighth Route Army has always only voluntarily carried guns, and there is no reason to force them to grasp them! When we arrived in Dawu Village, met Mrs. Jiang, and settled the martyrs' families, we are making the next step! ”
