Chapter 48: You're a Dog (Part 1!) )
"Please rest assured, the company commander will ensure that the mission will be completed!" The old squad leader replied immediately.
The cooking squad was stationed, and when they saw the rifles and prisoners brought back by the old squad leader and Li Hao, the five of them boiled on the spot.
"One gun per person, ten bullets, several of you are veterans, you should all be able to use it, I won't teach you!" After a few pairs of longing eyes, the old squad leader commanded decisively.
Then he pointed to the prisoner who was squatting next to him and continued to order: "From now on, our cooking squad still has a task, take care of them, let them help us transport food, carry us cauldrons, and carry the wounded!" ”
"If you don't want to carry the three cauldrons of our cooking class in the future, and make it easier on the march, then give me a good look at them and don't let them run."
Li Hao, Wang Bing, Li Feng, the three of them are the most idle in the cooking class.
Unless they go out to hunt for prey and fishing, the rest of the time the guard tasks are all carried out by the three of them.
This is the result that Li Hao wants most.
As a Red Army who has crossed over, he has no ability to change the direction of history and the fate of those big men, but he can do his best to keep more Red Army alive, at least let more comrades around him go to Yan'an alive!
Increasing the combat effectiveness of the Red Army around us through our own efforts is undoubtedly the best way to achieve this goal.
Keeping the fighters around them well fed and nutritious is the first step to improving their combat effectiveness.
Transforming prisoners, allowing more people to join the Red Army, and increasing the strength of the Red Army around him is the second step that I just thought of.
If the grievance campaign in memory really made the prisoners join the Red Army on their own initiative, and it was widespread in the Red Army.
The strength of the Red Army on the entire Long March will not only not be reduced and weakened, but will also rise gradually.
Thinking of this, Li Hao became excited.
"Old squad leader, it's still early, I plan to use my own methods to mobilize them first!" Li Hao proposed.
The old squad leader's idea was very simple, a dead horse should be a live horse doctor, and he replied without hesitation: "Yes, since you want to try, try it!" ”
Li Hao immediately ordered: "You guys keep an eye on them first, don't let them talk, communicate with each other!" ”
"I'm going to cook, seeing that they have yellow and thin muscles, they must not have eaten yet~"
In less than half an hour, a pot of fragrant rice and a pot of pork stewed radish appeared in front of them.
Li Hao stood in front of the nineteen captives and asked with a smile on his face.
"If I'm not mistaken, since the morning, your attacks on my Red Army have not stopped, and you probably haven't eaten yet!"
Seeing that all the captives were drooling at the two pots of food, they did not dare to speak with a touch of worry and concern on their faces.
Li Hao continued: "Don't worry, this is not a decapitated meal~"
"If our Red Army wants to shoot you, we will shoot you on the battlefield with a random shot, and we will not wait until now!"
"If you want to eat, come and eat, such a good meal, before you are captured, even if it is the New Year, it will be difficult to eat!"
"I'll eat ......," a middle-aged man shouted.
"Being able to eat such a good meal and eat pork, even if the Red Army really shoots me, I admit it, it's better than those starving ghosts on the battlefield who are still hungry!"
"I also eat it, I haven't eaten pork for several months, I didn't expect to be able to eat it after being a prisoner of the Red Army!" Another captive stepped forward.
"I've already died once anyway, as long as I can eat pork, I don't care if it's a severed head meal......"
In less than a minute, all nineteen captives had taken their rice bowls and gulped down.
Two large pots of food, a meal in the second company's usual platoon, were eaten by the nineteen captives.
After eating, many of the captives had unfinished expressions on their faces!
Li Hao seized the opportunity and said: "Since everyone has eaten well, then I have a few questions to ask you!" ”
"First question, when will you be able to eat such a meal before you become a soldier!"
No one answered Li Hao's question, but from the faces of several captives, Li Hao clearly saw very painful expressions.
After a long time, the middle-aged man who was the first to stand up to eat just now was the first to stand up again: "I'll come!" ”
"Sir, my family is a tenant household, and I live on the income from farming for the landlord, and I usually can't even eat a full meal, let alone meat!"
"I ate it during the Chinese New Year a year before I joined the army, and it was my father who ventured to catch a wild hare in the mountains and exchanged it for fat. My mother used the fat meat to fry the oil residue after the oil, and it was also stewed radish at that time, but it was not as delicious as your stew, after all, there was no large piece of fatty meat......"
Li Hao secretly remembered this middle-aged man, not surprisingly, this person would definitely be his first mobilization target for a while.
Seeing that many captives nodded in agreement, Li Hao continued to ask.
"Then you were arrested by the commander, have you ever eaten such a good meal since you became a soldier!"
"That's all eaten by the chief, it's good that one of us who is a soldier can eat a full stomach!" In the middle of the group of captives, one of the captives shouted loudly.
Another captive followed up and added: "Yes, I have been a soldier for almost two years, and I have eaten it once, and that is still the leftover meal of the officers when the regiment commander got married!" ”
"I haven't eaten it!" Another captive added.
Li Hao continued to ask: "Since you can't even eat a full meal, then why do you still want to be a soldier......
"In addition, have you ever thought about why you couldn't eat such a good meal before you became a soldier, and you were hungry and oppressed. After becoming a soldier, you should have raised your eyebrows, but you were still hungry and oppressed in the army, have you ever wondered why! ”
Many of the captives frowned, but they were all confused, for they had never thought about it.
After Li Hao waited for a minute and no one spoke, he replied to himself: "I tell you, because you were born poor and tenants, then you can only be poor in the next life, or even the next life." It is impossible for those landlords and old fortunes to turn you into rich people. If you become rich, who will plant their fields, and who will give them grain and slaves......"
"When the harvest in the fields is good, they will try to increase the rent, so that the villagers' remaining food can only ensure that their families do not starve to death, and there will never be any food in stock."
"When the harvest is bad, he won't go to reduce the rent, and pretends to be benevolent and lends everyone food to eat."
"When the time comes, borrowing one ocean of grain may become ten oceans in the blink of an eye, and even more often, their ugly faces will be exposed."
"After you have no money to repay your debts, you can only be tenants for those landlords for the rest of your life, sell your life to them, and be slaves for life!"
"Have you ever thought about what the army does after becoming a soldier and where the army's salary comes from?"
"Let me tell you, the military salaries are all provided by those landlords."
"Those people pay you for the army and feed you, for one purpose, to help them keep their family business and eliminate all the common people who dare to resist them, including our Red Army!"
"To put it more bluntly, before you were captured, those landlords and old rich people raised a dog in their families, helped them keep their family property, and bullied the common people, including your parents, wives and children!"
"Do you think those landlords will let a dog in their hands roll over and climb on top of them, and then bully them in turn? No way! ”
"As long as they see the slightest sign of turning over, they will kill you and suppress you!"
