Chapter 148 A tricky question
The morning sun pierced the sky, the morning breeze swept the earth, and in the camp of the 66th Regiment, the passionate singing of "Defending Great Wuhan" lingered, and the first morning meeting in Baiguo Town was coming to an end.
"Brothers," Li Siwei looked around at the soldiers, his voice full of pride, "Just yesterday, Lu Qiang and Ma Gui of the Second Battalion did something to give the sixty-sixth regiment commander a face!" Now, the two brothers are invited to the stage, and everyone applauds! ”
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
Loud and neat applause resounded throughout the school field.
Lu Qiang and Ma Gui were a little stunned, stunned in the queue, at a loss.
Liao Heiniu turned around, looked at the two of them and scolded with a smile: "Qiang Wazi and Mazi, what are you doing for Lao Tzu to be stunned?" Go up! ”
"Battalion...... The battalion commander ......" Lu Qiang looked at Liao Heiniu crampedly, stammering, "Go up...... Go up? ”
Mazi looked at Liao Heiniu with a wince, at a loss, "Camp...... Battalion commander, no...... Used, right? ”
Liao Heiniu's face was blank and his eyes were glaring, "Get out of the way for Lao Tzu, it's not that you did something unsightly!" Do you still have to wait for the head of the regiment to come down and please? ”
"No...... No! The two of them shook their heads and quickly shook their heads.
"Get up there!" Liao Heiniu smiled, "You gave the sixty-sixth regiment commander a face, that is, the second battalion commander's face!" ”
Hearing this, Lu Qiang and Ma Gui straightened their chests and strode towards the high platform, but their steps were obviously a little floating! Looking at the high platform in front of them, both of them were in a dream, where did they think that one day they would be able to stand on it? The battalion commander has never been up!
Li Siwei looked at the two of them trembling and smiled, "Lu Qiang, Ma Gui, cheer up, this is a glorious moment." ”
The two of them were shocked, "Yes! ”
Immediately, he cheered up his spirits, strode up to the point platform, and saluted Li Siwei "snapped", "Commander!" ”
"Good!" Li Siwei nodded, "Lu Qiang, Ma Gui, stand in front." ”
"Yes!" The two of them perked up, walked to the front of the stage with their heads held high, and stood beside Li Siwei left and right.
Li Siwei turned his head to look at the soldiers, "You should all know about Lu Qiang and Ma Gui, right?" ”
"Got it!" The soldiers looked at the two with envy.
"Hmm!" Li Siwei nodded and looked at Lu Qiang, "Let's talk about Lu Qiang first!" Lao Tzu has heard that there were a lot of people watching from the side at that time, why was he the only one who went up to save people? ”
The brothers all looked at Lu Qiang with blazing eyes, but some of the brothers blushed slightly, and they were also watching from the side.
"Lu Qiang," Li Siwei nodded at Lu Qiang, his eyes were full of encouragement, "Tell your brothers, what did you think when you went up to save people?" ”
"What do you think?" Lu Qiang was stunned, and hurriedly shook his head, "I ...... I didn't think about anything. ”
"Haha......"
The brothers burst into laughter.
Li Siwei waved his hand and looked at Lu Qiang and smiled slightly, "Then, why do you think you must save him?" ”
"Oh," Lu Qiang suddenly said, "When I saw him, I remembered my father, so I thought, I must save him!" ”
"Good!" Li Siwei praised loudly and looked back at the soldiers, "Brothers, do you understand?" ”
The soldiers nodded hurriedly, "Understood!" ”
Li Siwei looked around at the soldiers, "Lu Qiang has done a good job, everyone has to learn from him, from now on, you must treat your fellow villagers as relatives, and help if you can!" ”
"Yes!" The soldiers made a promise.
Li Siwei nodded, turned his head to look at Ma Gui, "Ma Gui, you are guarding the melons of your fellow countrymen, have you ever thought about taking a few?" ”
Ma Gui hurriedly shook his head, "I don't dare, if I take it, I will violate military discipline." ”
Li Siwei smiled, "Okay, I remember it very clearly!" Brothers, you also have to learn from Magui, you can't take advantage of your fellow countrymen! ”
"Yes!" All the soldiers made a promise, and recited the eighth article of military discipline in unison, "Trade fairly!" ”
"Very good," Li Siwei praised loudly, "Brothers, Lu Qiang and Ma Gui have contributed to the honor of the 66th Regiment, they are examples for everyone to learn, come, let us applaud them again!" ”
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
The loud applause sounded again, and Lu Qiang and Ma Gui held their heads high with pride on their faces.
Li Siwei was also applauding, with a smile on his face, although he did not give them a substantial reward, but Li Siwei believed that they could remember this honor for a lifetime!
"Okay," Li Siwei stopped clapping, pressed his hands, and the applause stopped abruptly, "Brothers, continue to have a holiday today, and relax well." ”
"Good! Good! "The officers and men were in good spirits.
Li Siwei smiled slightly, turned around and got off the high platform.
"Regiment commander," Zhang Yu hurriedly came, "The brigade headquarters just called, asking you to go to a meeting!" ”
Li Siwei nodded, "Did you say something was wrong?" ”
Zhang Yu hurriedly replied: "It was about the placement of wounded soldiers." ”
"Oh," Li Siwei frowned, the placement of wounded soldiers has always been a very difficult problem, because there are too many wounded, and it has completely exceeded the government's ability to place them.
Since the beginning of the war, after several major battles, the troops involved in the war have suffered huge casualties, and the government has no ability to accommodate them, the wounded who have been evacuated to the rear have not been properly accommodated, the seriously injured have no one to take care of them, and the recovered ones have not been strictly managed......
Therefore, Li Siwei organized a medical platoon by himself and tried his best to let others take care of his injured brothers. However, some brothers were disabled due to injuries and could no longer stay in the army, such as Yang Fan...... This is a very real problem, and every time I think about it, it makes his heart cut like a knife.
In the battle of Savage Village, there were more than ten brothers in the 66th Regiment who were disabled due to injuries, how to properly settle them? Li Siwei can't do anything at all!
In the conference room of the brigade headquarters, the commanders of all departments gathered, but the atmosphere was silent, and no one had a better solution to this.
Brigade Commander Chen looked around at everyone and sighed softly, "They are our brothers, who were born and died with us, but now, ...... There is no way to do this, and the Corps Command asked us to send all our brothers who were disabled by their injuries over, and they will try to settle them properly. ”
"Then send it!" Head Zhang raised his head and said in a hoarse voice, "We are just carrying guns to fight, we don't have any money or family business, what can we do if we leave them?" It's better to send them away, at least ...... I can get them back alive. ”
"Yes," everyone nodded, "at least they can get back alive." ”
Li Siwei was stunned and nodded with difficulty, yes, sending them away is the best choice! At least, they will make it back alive.
"Okay," Brigade Commander Chen nodded, "Let's prepare well when we go back, and send them to the brigade headquarters in the afternoon, and there will be a car to take them to the rear at that time." ”
"Yes!" Everyone said yes and got up one after another.
Li Siwei stood up with difficulty, turned around and was about to leave, but heard Brigade Commander Chen shouting: "Siwei, you are also the deputy brigade commander, you can't always stay in Baiguo Town, you still have to share some work in the brigade headquarters." ”
Li Siwei was stunned for a moment, looked back at Brigade Commander Chen, and his face was full of hesitation, "Brigade Commander......"
Brigade Commander Chen waved his hand and smiled, "I know, you can't let go of those brothers, but you are still young, you can't always accompany them, your road is still long!" In the afternoon, let's move to the brigade headquarters! ”
Li Siwei was stunned, "Yes!" ”
Out of the brigade headquarters, Li Siwei's face was full of worries, and Miao Zhenhua was a little worried, "Regiment commander, what's wrong?" ”
Li Siwei smiled at him reluctantly, "What's the matter, let's go!" ”
With that, he turned on his horse and rode away slowly.
At the regimental headquarters of the 66th Regiment, the commanders of each battalion and company gathered together, talking and laughing, but Li Siwei was a little upset...... Another brother is leaving, and he is going to the brigade headquarters himself.
"Cannon," Liao Heiniu suddenly looked at Li Siwei, "What's wrong with you turtle?" What's the task? ”
The conversation and laughter stopped abruptly, and everyone looked at Li Siwei.
Li Siwei smiled reluctantly and cheered up, "I called you here, there are two things." First, I will go to the brigade headquarters in the afternoon to report, and the affairs of the regiment will be handled by the deputy head of the regiment for the time being......"
Everyone was stunned, "Why?" ”
Li Siwei smiled bitterly, "Lao Tzu is now the deputy brigade commander, and the brigade headquarters still has something waiting for me!" ”
"Deputy Brigade Commander of the Hammer!" Liao Heiniu's eyes widened, "Are you still the sixty-sixth regiment after the sixty-sixth regiment left?" What is there to be a deputy brigade commander, no matter how big he is, he is also a deputy, and he has to listen to other people's ...... for everything."
Li Siwei hurriedly grabbed him, "What are you doing?" Just with the broken guns in our hands? ”
"So what do you say?" Monk Tang glared at Li Siwei, "You can't just watch the little devils slaughter the people, right?" ”
Li Siwei frowned, and was struggling, but saw a group of national soldiers rushing out of the crowd on the avenue, holding a gun and shooting indiscriminately into the air, running down the avenue as he shot, running into the field, and running into the distance...... Li Siwei understood, they were trying to lure the devil's plane away, but ......
This group of nationalist troops was about seventy or eighty people, they did not disperse, while running into the field, while shooting into the sky, obviously these rifles could not help the devil's plane at all, the only heavy machine gun was carried by two soldiers, there was no effective angle of fire, and it did not play a role...... But they succeeded in attracting the fire of the devil's planes, and the three planes followed, and the machine guns roared "dada......dada", and from time to time some of the officers and men of the national army were shot and fell to the ground.
Li Siwei saw that his blood was surging, and this group of sub-robes was exchanging their lives for the life of the people.
That group of national troops had already run more than 100 meters, and more than a dozen people had fallen along the way...... The two fighters carrying heavy machine guns suddenly stopped, and they set up their crane guns and were about to counterattack, but they were swept by the devil's machine guns.
"!" Li Siwei couldn't hold back any longer, this machine gun was the only chance for hundreds of people here.
Li Siwei rushed out, and Monk Tang and Chen Dashan followed closely behind him with their brothers.
The devil's attention was on the group of national soldiers who kept firing guns, and gave Li Siwei and them a chance, and everyone quickly rushed to the position of the heavy machine gun.
"Come!" Monk Tang leaned over and picked up the bracket of the machine gun and put it on his shoulder, shouting, "Li Cannon, you turtle hurry up!" ”
Li Siwei was stunned, the machine gun is a good thing, but there are not many people who can use it, the machine gunners in the platoon were assigned to Scarface, other soldiers can't use it, and they haven't used it themselves!
"I'll come," Chen Dashan picked up the machine gun, but there was too much difference in height between him and Monk Tang, the bracket of the machine gun was on Monk Tang's shoulder, and Chen Dashan's height couldn't control the machine gun at all, "Da", just a shot, Chen Dashan was knocked to the ground by the huge recoil bullet, and Monk Tang was also a stumbling man.
Li Siwei hurriedly helped Monk Tang, who stabilized his figure, turned his head to look at him, and shouted, "Li Cannon, you turtle hurry up!" ”
Li Siwei gritted his teeth, grabbed the handle of the machine gun with both hands, and shouted: "Monk, look for the target!" ”
Monk Tang looked up, adjusted his body slightly, and pointed his gun at the planes that were diving down, which were frantically chasing and killing the fleeing national army brothers with machine guns, and the fuselage was constantly descending.
Li Siwei's heart was clear at this time, staring at the plane with a pair of blood-red eyes, and pulled the trigger.
"Da da da ......" A shuttle of bullets roared out of the muzzle, and Li Siwei was knocked to the ground by the huge recoil, and his hands were already numb.
Monk Tang stumbled, fell to the ground with weak knees, but shouted excitedly in his mouth: "Hit, hit." ”
Li Siwei didn't have as good eyesight as him, so he naturally couldn't see if he had hit, but as soon as he looked up, he saw another plane swooping in his direction, the muzzle of the machine gun was constantly spewing flames, "bang bang bang", bullets hit around, and dirt splashed!
"Li Cannon," Monk Tang struggled to his feet and shouted, "Come again!" ”
Come on! Li Siwei gritted his teeth, stood up, grasped the machine gun in his hand, stared at the plane that was swooping over with a pair of blood-red eyes, and let the bullets of the enemy plane splash mud around him, and there was only one thought in his heart, kill it!
"Ah...... Hit the ......" Li Siwei heard a cheer in his ears, he ignored it, just pressed the trigger hard, and the ......machine gun roared angrily...... Li Siwei was knocked to the ground, the machine gun fell to the ground with a "snap", and the tall figure of Monk Tang fell straight on his back.
Li Siwei collapsed on the ground with a sour body, and when he tried to look up, he saw that the first plane that was hit had crashed into a mountainside in the distance, igniting a raging fire; The second plane staggered high into the air, and suddenly staggered and fell to the ground again; The third plane had reached the edge of the sky, turned into a small black dot, and fled......
Li Siwei breathed a sigh of relief, and when he went to see Monk Tang again, he saw that he was still lying quietly at his feet, without moving...... Li Siwei's heart sank, and he hurriedly crawled over, only to see Monk Tang's eyes closed, his clothes in tatters, and blood gushing from his chest and abdomen......
"Monk, monk," Li Siwei shook vigorously, "Monk, wake up." ”
"Ahem," Monk Tang opened his eyes leisurely and smiled with difficulty, "Lao Tzu...... Lao Tzu saw it, and he ...... It's all down......"
"Knocked down, beaten down," Li Siwei nodded hurriedly, "The rest of the turtle fell into the wilderness and fled......"
"Ahem," a wisp of blood spilled from the corner of Monk Tang's mouth, but his smile became even bigger, "You...... You're not wondering...... I...... Why is my eyesight so good...... All right? ”
"Don't say it, don't say it," Li Siwei's tears fell, "I don't want to know, I'll teach me when you're better......"
"No," Monk Tang was still laughing, "Lao Tzu...... Lao Tzu couldn't get better...... Lao Tzu has been in the temple on the mountain since he was a child...... Only...... Only read Buddhist scriptures, not ...... Do not smoke or drink...... Go morning and night...... All go to the top of the mountain to watch the sunrise and sunset, look at the sky, and the white clouds are long...... It was a good day...... However, then the little devil ...... The little devil occupies the northeast, Master...... Master drove me down the mountain, and he said...... He said that the survival of the nation ...... The husband is responsible...... You...... If you go back, you'll ...... So I went and saw him, and told him, I ...... I tried my best ......"
"Okay," Li Siwei nodded again and again, tears falling on Monk Tang's face, "He...... Where does he live? ”
"Outside the river city...... Fulong Mountain ...... Qingliang Temple ......" Monk Tang said, his voice was like a mosquito and fly, his eyelids drooped weakly, and the smile on the corner of his mouth gradually solidified!
"Monk!" Li Siwei hugged Monk Tang tightly into his arms, tears raining down!
