Chapter 144: Reviving the Army's Morale
Shoko glanced at it with a cold gaze and said, "What? If you suffer a little setback, you will wilt? Just cowardly? How many times have I told you that you can't work hard with bandits. Their riding skills are better than ours, their marksmanship is better than ours, and if they blindly let their horses chase after them, they will run away without a trace in the blink of an eye. Besides, people can hit the target with a single shot when they turn around right away. And what about us? Lying on the ground, you have to aim for a long time, how to fight with others? I'm afraid that I haven't seen the shadow of others yet, so I will be coldly shot. ”
Seeing that everyone was dumbfounded, Xiangzi softened his tone, and then said: "The bandits are all used, the Soviet-made Mosin Nagant 762 rifle, which has a long range and is lethal within 500 meters. Moreover, the bandits live in the wild all year round, and they have developed the ability to search for targets from a long distance when they are young. Before you could see him, he had locked you in the eye of the gun. So, we can only outwit it. ”
Xiangzi, seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, he was a little more lively. Then he continued: "In addition, don't look at the fierce bandits, in fact, they are very bold, and they dare not win more with less.
So, as soon as our people appear, they will slowly gather people and deal with us. Only by bringing them together will we have a chance of total annihilation. Otherwise, even if we have eliminated one or two small groups of bandits, the rest will hide in the mountains and disappear.
If you want to find their whereabouts again, it will be difficult. Therefore, I would like to re-examine the discipline once again, and no one can act without my permission. Otherwise, go back to the county seat immediately! Do you hear it all? ”
Everyone shouted in unison, "Hear clearly!" ”
Before the call fell, I saw Zhao Youtian crying with a sad face, took two steps forward, knelt on the ground with a "poof", and cried and said: "I violated discipline, I am guilty, I deserve to die!" Please allow me to make meritorious deeds, and do not drive me back. Otherwise, how can I explain to Sanwa?"
Xiangzi stepped forward and picked him up, and scolded angrily: "Look at your little bit of talent!" You are still from a military background, and it is the duty of a soldier to obey orders, have you forgotten? How did you set an example to your brothers? If everyone is like you, you can do whatever you want, why will this battle be fought? ”
Zhao Youtian threw himself to the ground with remorse at the team, and shouted heartbreakingly: "I'm guilty, brothers, don't learn from me, you must obey the orders of Commander Guo, otherwise, my sins will be great." ”
The big man stepped forward to help Zhao Youtian, patted him on the shoulder with a heavy face, and returned to the team silently.
Xiangzi took a step forward, and his face became gentle and said, "It's not early, just camp in the forest in front of you and eat and get a good night's sleep." It will be pulled out early tomorrow morning. Each team arranged a sentry post, and the secret sentry was placed a mile away to prevent the bandits from sneaking up. ”
As he spoke, he turned around and said to Zhao Youtian, who looked remorseful and depressed: "You continue to lead your team, I hope you can learn a lesson from this incident." ”
Zhao Youtian hurriedly nodded and led the team away. Xiangzi called Tie Dan and said, "You take someone to get some hay and tie ten straw men." Tie it to the size of a real person, and then dress each straw man in a military uniform. ”
After a pause, he hurriedly admonished: "The crotch of the straw man's legs should be wider, so that he can ride a horse." ”
After saying that, he was full of worries and walked towards a sand beam to the west.
In the flat, endless desert, the sun seems to fade late.
Although half of the side has been squeezed into the horizon, it is still trying to dye a touch of red on the earth selflessly.
Some unknown weeds have also become vivid. Even the disgusting salt-alkali flats, at this time, actually shimmered with a mysterious light.
Shoko stood at the top of the beam and looked far away, the wasteland shrouded in the setting sun, silently presenting her beauty.
A few homecoming sparrows passed happily overhead, as if to say that the vast desert is still their paradise of life.
Shoko looked around, took out the map he was holding in a cloth from his bosom and looked at it, and then looked around, as if he had found the traces in the map, and a smile of relief crossed his lips.
At some point, Shuzhen was already quietly standing behind him.
Seeing Xiangzi's relaxed face, he greeted him with a smile and said, "Do you have any plans for the next step?" ”
Xiangzi seemed to be confident, and said: "It seems that I have to spend two days with the bandits, and their news is transmitted quickly, I hope these two days can allow them to gather more people." When the time comes, give him a catch. ”
Shuzhen glanced at Xiangzi with a firm and trusting gaze, and said softly, "The rice is good, let's eat it while it's hot." ”
Shoko smiled gently at her, and silently returned to the tent side by side.
The three teams of men and horses had a total of four marching tents, and Shuzhen had to live in one tent with Xiangzi and Zhao Xiaotian.
According to Zhao Xiaotian's meaning, Xiangzi and Shuzhen simply lived in a tent, and the brothers knew everything about him, and no one said anything.
But Xiangzi didn't do it, so he had to drag Zhao Xiaotian here and use it as a lamp to avoid suspicion.
But Shuzhen looked calm and relaxed, anyway, she was marching and fighting, and she was used to lying in clothes since she was a child.
The three of them laughed and filled their stomachs, and Zhao Xiaotian excused himself to check the sentry, and then came out of the tent with a mysterious expression.
Xiangzi shook his head with a helpless smile, glanced at Shuzhen warmly, and said, "Let's go out for a walk too, shall we?" It's weird in the tent. ”
Sookjin smiled sweetly at him and followed obediently.
Whether it's in the city or in the desert. The stars in the sky are always winking at you with the same enthusiasm.
I don't know if it was the amorous warm current that touched the cold heart of the moon, and it even made her bend down with a smile.
A wisp of fresh wind blows, bringing a hint of coolness.
Xiangzi glanced at Shuzhen with concern, silently took off her cloak and draped it over her body.
Shuzhen smiled gently at Xiangzi and muttered to herself: "I don't know what kind of crazy Hai Eva has become at home in the past two days, she doesn't listen to Auntie's words at all, Da Laozi is always used to her." ”
Xiangzi smiled innocently and said: "Hai Retreat's temperament is up to you, I like her naughty energy, cultivate it well, and I will never lose to you when I grow up in the future." ”
Shuzhen glanced at Xiangzi softly, and said: "You still say miles, you will give the baby to the usual head and dare not give the feet, see how you will clean up in the future"
Xiangzi smiled and said: "I'm afraid of something, I can't fight like you in the future, I will get off the horse immediately, go to the house to uncover the tiles, maybe there will be a contemporary heroine." ”
Shuzhen snorted coldly, and muttered: "It's not enough for us to fight and kill in this life, let the babies also learn to be uneasy, you can figure it out!" ”
Xiangzi smiled and said, "There is no dog in the door, you have to teach her three fists and two feet, right?" I'm going to teach her everything I've learned. ”
Shuzhen smiled gently at Xiangzi and didn't say anything more.
