Chapter 347 Observation Mission
At the turn of the summer and autumn of 1940, the Yunnan-Burma Highway was blocked, and foreign aid materials could not enter China, and the War of Resistance was extremely difficult.
Although the Japanese were still at a disadvantage in the Nakajo Mountain area, the activities of the anti-Japanese soldiers stationed in Nakajo Mountain were also in a state of stagnation, and the soldiers had no medical treatment for their illnesses and injuries.
On 15 August, when the heat was unbearable, in the conference room of the First Theater Command, all the generals gathered and the stars were shining, but there was a solemn atmosphere in the air.
“…… Since June, our unit has repeatedly attacked, and the situation has been reversed, but the supplies are insufficient, the wounded soldiers have no cure, the dead are not counted, and the graves are piled up outside the field hospitals......" The voice of Commander-in-Chief Liu of the 14th Group Army echoed in the conference room, sad and helpless, "I hope Jun is compassionate!" ”
"Yes," the generals echoed, "the heat in the mountains is unbearable, mosquitoes and flies are rampant, and the epidemic in the army is ......"
"Ladies and gentlemen," the more the chief Wei listened, the more irritated he became, and suddenly stood up, took a deep breath, and looked around at the generals, "The situation is difficult, and I understand your difficulties, but ......"
As he spoke, Chief Wei's expression was solemn, and his voice sank, "You must all remember that you are soldiers!" It's a soldier! ”
All the generals were stunned, and they were all silent.
"Ladies and gentlemen," Chief Wei sat back slowly, his voice softening, "Xun Chen's heroic spirit is still there, I am equivalent to a soldier, how can I complain and complain?" ”
As he spoke, Chief Wei sighed lightly, "Xun Chen said it well! The country has reached such a point that there is no other way but to die for it. I also believe that as long as we can make this determination, our country and our nation with a history of 5,000 years will never die at the hands of the Japanese slaves of the three islands...... Our current situation is indeed difficult, but we must firmly believe that difficulties are temporary, and victory is expected! ”
"Yes!" The generals promised, "Remember the Junzuo Commandment!" ”
"Well," Chief Wei nodded slowly, his expression solemn, "When you go back, you should reorganize your troops and actively prepare for war...... As for the matter of medicines, the rear side is actively raising ......"
When the crowd dispersed, the chief of the guard sat alone at the table, rubbing his temples wearily.
The great cause of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression is related to the survival of the nation, and as a member of one party, how can Chief Wei not be tired?
When there was less fighting and training stopped, Li Siwei gave an order, and the officers and men of the 66th Regiment seemed to have escaped the heat and had a chance to recuperate, and Li Siwei was also idle.
It's not that Li Siwei doesn't want to fight, it's just that an order has been given from above; It's not that Li Siwei doesn't want to train, it's just that the heat is unbearable, and some people have already suffered from heat stroke during training, and there is a shortage of doctors and medicines in the regiment......
In the cabin, Li Siwei made a big basin of water, stripped Qiansheng and put it in the basin, seeing the little guy tossing and turning in it, he was full of joy, and his face was also full of smiles.
"Daddy...... Daddy......"
An An struggled in Li Siwei's arms, staring at Qiansheng in the basin with big eyes, waving his little hands wildly.
"Don't worry, don't worry......"
Li Siwei hurriedly leaned over and comforted him softly, "An An'an, I'll wash you when my brother finishes washing." ”
"Bang ......"
As soon as Li Siwei's words fell, Ning Rou and Wu Ruolan hurriedly walked in, and when they saw this scene, they hurriedly ran over, Ning Rou lifted Qiansheng out of the basin, Wu Ruolan glared at Li Siwei and snatched An An, "How can you throw the baby into the basin?" ”
"Uh......" Li Siwei was stunned, and hurriedly smiled, "Isn't the baby very happy?" It was too hot and the basin was cool......"
"Then you can't keep the baby in the water!" Ning Rou quickly dried her body for Qiansheng, put on her small clothes, and glanced at Li Siwei with disgust, "If you soak for a long time, the baby is easy to get sick!" ”
"That's it," Wu Ruolan hurriedly nodded in agreement, and after speaking, she glared at An An, who was looking at the water basin, "An An, don't follow your father to mess around!" ”
An An was stunned, looked at Wu Ruolan in a daze, and suddenly her mouth deflated, and she cried "Wow......".
Qiansheng, who was still struggling in Ning Rou's arms, suddenly quieted down.
"Ruolan," Li Siwei looked at Wu Ruolan and smiled bitterly, "If the baby wants to play, let her ......"
As he spoke, seeing Wu Ruolan's glaring eyes, Li Siwei hurriedly changed his words, "Let her wash her too...... On a hot day, it will be more comfortable to wash! ”
"That's right," Ning Rou also hurriedly helped, "Ruolan, you just let An An also wash it, and we will watch from the side, don't worry." ”
"Okay," Wu Ruolan nodded hurriedly, comforting An An who was crying in her arms, "Don't cry, don't cry, mom will undress you." ”
"I'll go change the water," Li Siwei saw that Wu Ruolan agreed, and diligently took the basin to change the water.
Doll happiness is stronger than anything else!
Li Siwei quickly changed the water, and just walked to the door, but saw Lu Tiesheng coming in a hurry, with a solemn expression, "Regiment commander, the division headquarters called......
"Turtle's," Li Siwei threw down a sentence of "wait for me", and hurried into the door.
Recently, there has been basically nothing good about the calls from the division headquarters.
Li Siwei put the basin of water, went out, took the telegram and looked at it, and frowned, "Investigation group? Why did the delegation find me? ”
Although he was puzzled in his heart, after the order was given, Li Siwei did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly explained the division in the regiment, and then took Li Sanguang to go out, but seeing Li Sanguang's bad face, he couldn't help but hesitate a little, "Third brother, what's wrong with you?" ”
Li Sanguang shook his head with a bitter face, "Mo Shi......"
"It's not a matter of talking," Li Siwei hurriedly reached out and touched Li Sanguang's forehead, disgusted, "If you're sick, go to the medical platoon!" ”
"I'm really nothing," Li Sanguang said stiffly, picking up the horse and going to the door.
"Third brother," Li Siwei grabbed Li Sanguang, pulled Li Sanguang along, and hurriedly helped him again, with a wry smile on his face, "You are like this...... What can you do if you go? Have a good rest at home, the medical staff has herbs, let Rou'er boil a few pairs of ...... for you"
"No need," Li Sanguang hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand, with a wry smile on his face, "I'd better go to the medical platoon and stay!" Brother and sister, they still have to take care of the baby......"
"It's okay," Li Siwei had to ask someone to send Li Sanguang out of the door.
Looking at Li Sanguang's back, Li Siwei couldn't help but be a little worried, although there has not been an outbreak of malaria in the regiment this year, there are still people who are sick.
"Commander," Li Siwei was still in a daze, Huang Hua and Sun Dali hurriedly walked in, looking at Li Siwei suspiciously, "What's wrong?" ”
"Oh," Li Siwei came back to his senses and smiled at the two of them reluctantly, "Third brother is sick......
"It should be heat stroke," Huang Hua smiled and comforted, "I just ran into it, I took a look, it's not too serious, the medical platoon found some herbs, and drank a few pairs to raise it." ”
"Well," Li Siwei nodded, and got down to business, "There is an observation group up there, saying that they are going to Taihang Mountain...... Old Dao, you can find me someone again. ”
"Go to Taihang?" Huang Hua and Sun Dali were both stunned, and hurriedly said, "I'll go with you!" ……”
As he spoke, the two glanced at each other and closed their mouths at the same time.
"No," Li Siwei hurriedly shook his head, "You are the company commander......"
"What's not to do?" Huang Hua smiled, "I'm leaving, don't you still have a lot of strength in the company!" Anyway, there's been a lot of action lately......"
"Yes," Sun Dali hurriedly nodded in agreement, "Leader, let Lao Dao go with you, with him, brothers can rest assured!" ”
"Turtle's," Li Siwei scolded with a smile, "This time I'm going to study, what's not to worry about?" ”
Saying that, Li Siwei still nodded, "It's okay, Lao Dao, come with me, and also go to learn from friendly troops!" ”
The purpose of this inspection mission was to learn from the 18th Group Army how to develop the base areas.
According to Commander Wei, "The supply of the 18th Group Army is more difficult than ours, why can they continue to grow and develop?" It seems that our method is wrong! ”
In this way, under the leadership of a major general and staff officer of the group army headquarters, an inspection group of more than 30 people set out from Pinglu and headed straight for Taihang Mountain.
There were several regiment-level cadres in the inspection team, as well as staff officers from various military departments, and Liao Heiniu was also there, with power.
In April 40, Chief Wei met with Commander-in-Chief Zhu of the 18th Group Army at Zhanghe, redefined the defense area of the First Theater and the 18th Group Army, and assigned Hebei Province and many border areas in Shanxi, Hebei and Henan to the 18th Group Army.
Zhongtiao Mountain extends from the southwest of Jin Province to the northeast direction to the middle of Jinzhong, echoes with Luliang Mountain, Taihang Mountain, Taiyue Mountain, and is stationed in the Fourth Group Army, the Fifth Group Army, the Fourteenth Group Army, the Twenty-fourth Group Army and other units from west to east, protecting the three sides of Zhongtiao Mountain, the north, and the east, and has been holding on to this time for more than two years.
Within two days, the delegation entered the Taihang Mountain area, and when they entered the defense area of the 18th Group Army, they were received by someone and courteous and polite, and then began to visit...... In the evening, the delegation was arranged in a village not far from the military headquarters.
After dinner, the generals enjoyed the cool in the courtyard, talking and laughing at the bright stars and the moon, so happy.
"It really can't be compared!" Staff Officer Chen, who led the team, suddenly sighed, "People are indeed better than us!" ”
The generals were stunned and nodded in agreement.
Li Siwei was in a heavy mood, and that day would come sooner or later......
"Cannon," Liao Heiniu threw the cigarette butt to the ground and stood up, "Let's go, go out for a walk......
"Shopping...... Li Siwei was stunned for a moment, and scolded with a smile, "It's dark, what have you been shopping?" You turtle don't want to run outside the door of the villager to listen to the corner, right? ”
When the generals heard this, they burst into laughter.
"Commander Liao," Staff Officer Zhang shook his head with a smile, "Don't go out tonight...... After all, this is a friendly defense zone, so it's not good to cause misunderstanding! ”
"That's right," Li Siwei hurriedly got up and pulled Liao Heiniu's arm, "Let's go, let's sleep in a room tonight and have a good chat......
Liao Heiniu didn't understand the power, but Li Siwei did.
Liao Heiniu hesitated for a moment and followed Li Siwei.
Back in the house, Liao Heiniu sat on the side of the kang and looked at Li Siwei suspiciously, "Cannon, what's wrong?" Turtles, why are they so nervous, Lao Tzu goes out for a walk, and doesn't cause trouble......"
"Hei Niu," Li Siwei interrupted Liao Hei Niu as he handed him a cigarette, "Something...... It's hard to say, but we're here to learn......"
"Learn a ball!" Liao Heiniu glared, "Lao Tzu can't learn that!" ”
As he spoke, Liao Heiniu lit the cigarette, took two puffs hard, and sighed, "You turtle don't know, when I first arrived at the 728th Regiment, even the villagers in Jiagou took a detour when they saw us as soldiers...... It's been almost a year, and there are still people in the regiment who are doing that thing of stealing chickens and dogs! ”
"Then I don't blame you," Li Siwei smiled and comforted, "I believe that the brothers who went out of the 66th Regiment can get along with the fellow villagers!" ”
As early as when he was in Baiguo Town, Li Siwei emphasized the need to do a good job in military-civilian relations, and later, the brothers have always done a good job.
"The old brothers of the sixty-sixth regiment are naturally doing well," Liao Heiniu nodded and took another puff of his cigarette, "However, the other brothers are not easy to manage!" You also know that the brothers have a hard time in the mountains......"
"I know," Li Siwei nodded hurriedly, "But, no matter how bitter you are, you can't harm the people, otherwise, what's the difference between Lao Tzu and little devils?" ”
Liao Heiniu nodded, silently smoked his cigarette, but listened to Li Siwei's words, "Heiniu, have you ever fought a civil war?" ”
Liao Heiniu was stunned for a moment, and nodded lightly, "When it's three or six years...... Didn't you go that time? ”
"Well," Li Siwei nodded lightly, "Black Bull, if you can survive to the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, what are you going to do?" ”
"Turtle's," Liao Heiniu glared and scolded with a smile, "Didn't you say that you want to take Lao Tzu to enjoy happiness?" You shouldn't have forgotten, right? ”
"I haven't forgotten," Li Siwei hurriedly shook his head, threw away the cigarette butt in his hand, and looked a little lonely, "It's just...... Lao Tzu is a little ...... Some ......"
"Cannon," Liao Heiniu held the cigarette butt that was about to burn out, and stared at Li Siwei tightly, "What's wrong with your turtle today?" As soon as you enter the mountain, Lao Tzu will notice that something is wrong with you......"
"Don't do anything," Li Siwei smiled reluctantly, "Sleep!" I'm going to study and inspect tomorrow! ”
After that, Li Siwei took off his shoes and climbed onto the kang, but Liao Heiniu glanced at Li Siwei with some concern, "Cannon, what kind of friendship do you have?" What can't you say? ”
"Black Bull," Li Siwei shook his head and smiled bitterly, "It's not that I don't want to say it, I just don't know what to say?" Counting the ball, saying it is also only adding to the trouble...... Go to sleep! Things work themselves out! ”
When you look at it, history is just a stage play of great men and saints, but after you really integrate into history, you will find that history is far bloodier and more cruel than the eyes of onlookers.
Li Siwei wanted to say a lot, but found that he couldn't say it at all!
Li Siwei wanted to do a lot, but found that he couldn't do anything at all!
When you integrate into history, you will find that the power of the individual is insignificant in the current of history, which ...... Perhaps it is the cruelest truth of history!
The first emperor was eloquent, but the second emperor died; The overlord hero is the world, and after all, he killed himself in Wujiang; Wang Mang was ambitious, but he ended up dying and the country was destroyed...... In history, there is no shortage of sighs of "only hating the family of the Son of Heaven", there is no lack of sighs of "dying before the ambition is paid", and there is no lack of lamentation of "powerless to return to heaven"!
Are the seemingly beautiful historical figures really as glamorous as written in the history books?
Can the Ninety-Five Supreme really look down on all sentient beings and determine the future with a word?
The bitterness and helplessness in it are that even the historians can't bear to see it!
Thinking about it, Li Siwei fell asleep in a daze.
