Chapter 132: Still Too Persistent
After a hasty meal in the troops, the fullest meal in a few days. Li Ziyuan, who was anxious to enter the mountain before the rain stopped, did not hesitate at all to lead his troops and immediately marched in the predetermined direction. Warriors who had recovered significantly their physical strength after a full stomach made the march speed significantly faster.
And the Japanese puppet troops along the way were either transferred to Basongling, or driven back to their strongholds by heavy rain. In addition, Li Ziyuan's marching route was chosen in the most remote place, so it was safe along the way. But even so, in order to avoid being targeted by the Japanese puppet army in plainclothes. In addition to personally leading the avant-garde troops, Li Ziyuan also arranged for He Huizhang, an experienced veteran, to lead the guard.
With no encounters along the way, Li Ziyuan's adventure was a success. When the rain finally stopped when it was dark, Li Ziyuan led the team to the front line of Fuhu Temple. Looking at the swarthy Taihang Mountain in front of him, Li Ziyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, he knew that this was here, and it also indicated that he was finally out of danger.
looked at the Taihang Mountain in front of him, and looked back at the outside of the mountain. I thought of the 'woman' outside Basongling who had a pair of gentle big eyes and warm little hands of China Resources. Shaking his head and sighing softly, although he is unmarried, he still has a husband in the end. After all, I am still a passerby, and forgetting may be the best way. If you go now, you may not see each other again in this life.
After arriving at the front line of Fuhu Temple, Li Ziyuan rejected Qian Defu's suggestion to take a break, and immediately entered the mountain with his troops. However, after entering the mountain, Li Ziyuan did not relax his vigilance. Before arriving at the ladder repair site, Li Ziyuan had been advancing in battle formation.
In this area of dense vegetation, it is necessary to be ready for battle. The Japanese army's ability to set up ambushes was no weaker than that of the Eighth Route Army, which took ambush warfare as its main means of warfare. Don't have already arrived at the 'door' of your home, but you were caught off guard by the Japanese army.
It wasn't until after the ladder that Li Ziyuan, who was basically completely relieved, ordered the troops to rest. After hesitating, Li Ziyuan still ordered a few bonfires to be lit. This area is the least populated area in the entire Hubei County, not the densely populated Basongling. As long as you are more vigilant about 'sex', you shouldn't be discovered by the pseudo-plainclothes team before you appear, but you don't notice anything at all.
However, before the troops crossed the ladder, Li Ziyuan also carefully selected the rest location. He put the resting place in a sheltered place. The terrain here is relatively secluded, as long as you are careful and the guard posts are placed far away, even if you light a large bonfire, it will be difficult to be spotted if you don't get too close.
After making up his mind, Li Ziyuan, who was afraid that he would be sick the next morning, ordered the troops to immediately take turns baking clothes and at the same time hurry up to eat. Except for the guard posts, everyone rested after eating to relieve fatigue as much as possible.
It's just that when the troops were resting, Li Ziyuan himself couldn't sleep even though he was very tired. After knowing the real reason for Shi Jin's arrest, although in front of the old man and his family, he has been desperately covering it up. But from the first time he got the news, Li Ziyuan's heart was even more painful.
He thought that if he could think more about the enemy situation when Shi Jin went out to contact, he might encounter the enemy situation in more detail. We have a clearer understanding of the enemy's control over the western plains of Hubei and the enemy's ability to reconnoiter and judge, and we can completely avoid Shi Jin's arrest.
sent Shi Jin out to find a district party committee, and Li Ziyuan thought that he had done nothing wrong in this matter. The situation at that time and the later proofs also verified the predicament that the troops would encounter if they did not find a district committee. My only mistake at that time was that I still didn't think about the possibility of Shi Jin's identity being exposed.
Shi Jin once served as the captain of the district squad in the third district, and it is not necessarily that no one will recognize him in the Japanese puppet side. In particular, the three regions have never established a solid base area, and they have always been in a situation of guerrilla zones that are 'intertwined'. Shi Jin's true identity is not a big secret in the eyes of those who care.
He didn't take into account the location where the certificate of good citizenship was issued, and his contempt for the ability of the plainclothes team of the Japanese puppet army, which caused Shi Jin to be arrested until he was killed. It's just that it's too late to regret it now, and the big brother who always smiles will never come back. Li Ziyuan didn't know how to face Shi Jin's family after returning to the mountain.
Look at the refreshing night sky after the rain and the sky full of stars. Li Ziyuan found that he was still too persistent in many aspects. Always thinking of bringing out an iron-clad army to face to face with the Japanese puppet army. In terms of tactics, however, it has never changed, and the same set in the period of the main forces has ignored the truly complex situation that it is currently facing.
Although I said it in my heart before, I repeatedly told myself to adapt to guerrilla warfare. However, neither in the formulation of plans nor in the choice of the direction of action, in fact, there is no way to get rid of the main forces. This time I jumped out of the outside line to fight, which can be said to have taught myself a solid lesson.
How to change your tactics in the future to make them more in line with the environment you are in now is the most important thing you should consider at the moment. The question is how to change this tactic and what kind of tactic to adopt, Li Ziyuan found that he needed to think about it seriously.
There is no doubt about the tactics of ambush warfare and movement warfare. But when it comes to the actual use of tactics, how to use it, I still have to take a good look at it. In terms of armament, it is still necessary to enhance the armament as much as possible. However, under the circumstance that the source of the ammunition 'medicine' mainly depends on seizures, it is also time to think carefully about how to make the most of the resources at hand and available to us.
Thinking of this, Li Ziyuan closed his eyes and leaned against the trunk of the tree and pondered quietly. At the same time, the troops who were already extremely tired, except for the sentries who were still holding on, the rest of the cadres and soldiers either leaned on each other or leaned against the trunk of the tree with their guns in their arms. Only the pine branches in the roaring campfire, occasionally exploding.
Just when Li Ziyuan closed his eyes and pondered, as if he was asleep. Li Ziyun, who was taking care of the wounded in the back, didn't know when he would come to his side. After spreading a piece of oilcloth on the ground, he sat directly next to Li Ziyuan, looking at his younger brother, whom he hadn't seen for many years, with a strange expression.
At present, Li Ziyuan's cowardly look on his face has long disappeared, replaced by a resolute and strong face. When he was trapped in Basongling, he showed decisiveness and keenness, so that Li Ziyun almost didn't believe that this young man in front of him was the younger brother who was cowardly and even an ordinary subordinate dared to scold him at every turn.
At present, the little boy with a thin body has now grown into a sturdy man. The younger brother who lost his mother since he was a child and was not welcome at home has long since ceased to be cared for. This made Li Ziyun, who had not seen her for several years, feel a little lost in her heart.
Although after this unexpected encounter, Li Ziyuan always dodged himself. For his sister, who was once the only one who really loved him, he no longer had the dependence he had before. But Li Ziyun still wants to know what kind of life his younger brother has lived all these years. This is not a gossip or gossip, it is just a simple sister's concern for her younger brother.
When she was studying in Beiping, she had heard some rumors about the predecessor of this army, which was still called the Red Army at that time. I also read the Chinese translation of "A Long Journey to the West", which was written by the first foreign correspondent who later entered northern Shaanxi, which described the Red Army's Long March. The book was born in the island-like Shanghai Concession, and it was widely circulated among their college students.
In addition to the previous news reports, as well as some rumors of the same thing. She knew that the Red Army back then had a very difficult journey during the Long March. She couldn't figure out how her younger brother, who was very thin back then, would have persevered if those rumors were true. Belts and grassroots, have those things really been eaten?
Compared with Li Ziyun, who looked at her younger brother with a strange face, Li Ziyuan in front of her actually knew who was coming from her as soon as she sat down beside her. On the surface, it seems that he has fallen asleep, but in fact, Li Ziyuan, whose whole body cells are on guard, would have died many times if he didn't have this ability.
It's just that Li Ziyuan, who is really afraid of his sister, really doesn't want to open his eyes to face his sister. Although there are not many memories left, Li Ziyuan also knows that this sister cares about her original self. When he dodged by himself, Li Ziyuan didn't fail to see the loneliness in Li Ziyun's eyes.
But Li Ziyuan really doesn't know how to face it now, this sister who was once familiar in memory, but is quite strange now. He knew what Li Ziyun wanted to ask, but for Li Ziyuan now, many past things had passed, and he didn't want to mention it together at all.
Coupled with his sister, from time to time, some strange thoughts come to Li Ziyuan, who is used to living without a family, is very unacceptable. Instead of sitting awkwardly, it is better to pretend to be asleep and let her go back by herself. It's just that Li Ziyun was sitting there and didn't leave for a long time, so Li Ziyuan could only speak: "Second sister, why don't you go to rest?" ”
At this time, Li Ziyun, who was holding his knees and looking at the bonfire in front of him, said without the slightest surprise after hearing his words: "Although you have changed a lot in the past few years, this 'problem' has not been changed." When you encounter something you don't want to face, you just pretend to sleep like a turtle with a shrunken head. ”
"Although we haven't seen each other all these years, I'm your sister after all, I know what a sweaty 'hair' on your body looks like, and I don't know your 'hair' yet? I also know that you have grown up and no longer need a sister. But you should always let your sister know, how have you been doing in the past few years? ”
Hearing Li Ziyun's words, Li Ziyuan leaned on the trunk behind him and said, "Second sister, I have nothing to say about my experience over the years. That year, when the Red Army went south, and my family went to Chengdu, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and I left myself at home. ”
"When I woke up and found that I was alone, I felt more relaxed than I had ever felt before. At that time, a person was unrestrained and wanted to see the outside world. It just so happened that the Red Army entered the county seat where we were located, and directly joined the Red Army. He first followed the Red Army to participate in the Battle of Baizhang Pass, and then followed the Red Army to the north to resist Japan. ”
"I followed the troops all the way to climb snowy mountains and cross grasslands, and I almost climbed all those snowy mountains in the north of our hometown and northwest Sichuan. From his hometown in Sichuan, he went all the way to northern Shaanxi. first worked as a correspondent for the old chief for more than a year, and later became a soldier and squad leader. After crossing the Yellow River to the east, he became a platoon commander and company commander, and later transferred to Hubei as a backbone guerrilla leader. ”
"The army is a place to train people, even if you are a half-grown child who doesn't know anything at home, you will mature quickly here. After a bloody battle, I was not afraid of anything in the face of the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood. After walking through 300 miles of uninhabited grassland, you can eat any hardship after eating the belt and grass roots. ”
