Putting down the telescope in his hand, Qian Defu wiped the cold sweat on his head before continuing: "Captain, it's really dangerous. Fastest update access: щщщ.79XS.сОΜ. If we really went down the mountain to collect the corpses for Lao Shi and them for a while, we just fell into the trap of the little devils. Thanks to your vigilance of being more 'sexual', we didn't let the devil get in. ”

"If it's on the terrain down the mountain, let the devils surround it. As far as our current combat effectiveness is concerned, I am afraid that we will not be able to withstand it even for an hour, and we will have to be completely defeated. If the devil throws in the artillery, it will be done in half an hour at most. This little devil is too cunning, and he actually gave us a serial set. ”

Taking the telescope handed over by Qian Defu, Li Ziyuan shook his head and said: "The devil must not only set up an ambush on that mountain, but also hide ambushes in the several hills around us, as well as to the north and east, the two most likely directions for us to break through." Now let's see who is more patient, let's go with the devil. ”

"Old Qian, you must tell the troops that there must be no fire tonight, let alone move around easily. We are observing the Japanese puppet army, and the Japanese puppet army must have arranged for people to keep an eye on us. They have high-powered artillery mirrors that can only be seen more clearly than we do. After a while, it will get dark, and no matter what happens, no one will be allowed to go down. ”

After listening to Li Ziyuan's order, Qian Defu frowned a little and said, "Captain, there are no other problems. Now there is only one crux of the matter, and we have very little supplies left. Even if you are saving, you can only survive today. If the little devil doesn't withdraw for three or two days, then what should we do? Even if the devil doesn't find out about us, we'll starve ourselves to death. ”

"There are Japanese puppet troops everywhere under the mountain, although they are all small units, but they are much more than our small team. As soon as we went down the mountain this time to find Dr. Li, we encountered the devil, and we didn't have time to get food. After snatching people out, they fought and retreated all the way. And you saw it. When they returned to the hiding point of the troops, there were only a few people left, and they did not even grab out the wounded after the break. ”

"On this day, the puppet army chased after our buttocks all the way, and they didn't even give us a chance to catch their breath. To be able to 'get' Dr. Li back, he has already done his best. Besides, even if they get food, they can't make a fire to cook a mature meal right now, and the troops will also have to go hungry. ”

Regarding Qian Defu's worries, Li Ziyuan pondered for a while and said: "Old Qian, I don't have a better way for a while now. And now, all we can do is to compare with the Japanese army who has more endurance. At this time, it is necessary for those of us who are cadres to play some leading roles. ”

"You go back and collect everyone's dry food and distribute it together. As much as possible, make sure that there is no situation where someone is well fed and someone is hungry over there. At this time, even if it is superficial fairness, it can better maintain the stability of the military's morale. ”

Speaking of this, Li Ziyuan paused for a moment before saying: "Old Qian, the instructor is not there at the moment, and the number of cadres is seriously insufficient. The number of recruits and the puppet army in the army accounted for a considerable part. Now, we are in the most difficult and dangerous time. At this time, if you don't help me, no one will help me anymore. ”

"Among the troops, the recruits mobilized from the three districts, as well as those soldiers of the puppet army, I hope you can temporarily arrest the political and ideological work. At this time, we must ensure the stability of the troops, and there must be no deserters or any 'chaos'. If there is any accident, it will be tantamount to a catastrophe for our entire army. ”

"So we must stabilize the emotions of the warriors and tell them that what we have to compare with the devils now is who is more patient and who has more endurance. I also hope that they can trust me as the captain, and as long as I survive this time, I will definitely rush out with them safely. ”

Li Ziyuan's voice fell, and Qian Defu hesitated for a moment and said: "Captain, don't worry, I am a party member and a veteran, I know what to do at this time." It's just that I've always been engaged in the military, and I was only educated in political work before, but I didn't educate others. I can only say that I will do my best, but I don't know what the result is. I'm a clumsy person, and doing political and ideological work is really not that kind of material. ”

Regarding his 'handover' to let Qian Defu do political work, but he himself was a little lacking in confidence, Li Ziyuan shook his head and said: "Old Qian, you will do a good job." You are a veteran of many years of education in the army and know how to do political and ideological work. As long as you want to do well, you will definitely be able to do well. Remember, the responsibility for stabilizing the mood of those recruits is heavier than Tarzan right now. ”

After Li Ziyuan finished speaking, Qian Defu finally nodded, although he was still a little hesitant. Looking at the back of Qian Defu leaving, Li Ziyuan shook his head, but at this time he remembered Chang Juan. Although this girl has no military literacy and her 'sexual' personality is also a little stubborn, she is very good at doing political and ideological work.

If she were here, she wouldn't have to worry about the emotions of the fighters. It's just that no matter how much I need Chang Juan right now, no one is around after all. What I can do now is to throw away my illusions and start from reality. Or try to use your own side, the current limited number of people to find a way.

Thinking of this, Li Ziyuan shook his head and threw his feelings aside. Raise the binoculars again and look in the direction where there may be Japanese puppet troops. It's just that while observing the enemy's situation, Li Ziyuan's telescope was intentional or unintentional, avoiding the corpses on the big trees under the mountain as much as possible.

Even after a mountain of swords and a sea of blood, even if it has gone through countless battles large and small, even if it is considered to have crawled out of the pile of dead people. But the corpses under the mountain, Li Ziyuan still didn't dare to look at them. Although Li Ziyuan has been deliberately evading, the four big words of not saving him when he sees death are deeply imprinted in his heart.

At this moment, at the foot of the mountain, the mutilated corpses of several people who had been bitten by the wolf dog were tied to the trunk of the tree. The bodies of several warriors hanging from the trees also swayed gently as the mountain wind blew by. The strong smell of blood attracted the flies.

At this time, the entire mountain, the bottom of the mountain, and the surrounding Basongling Mountain Range formed a strange tranquility except for the swarms of flies buzzing around the corpses under the mountain. With the last rays of the setting sun, after completely disappearing into the mountains in the west, the night 'color' enveloped the entire Eight Pine Ridge.

Putting down the binoculars in his hand, Li Ziyuan 'rubbed' his somewhat astringent eyes. Turning around, he cautiously followed the perimeter of his position, and checked the surrounding terrain and the guard position. At the same time, several veterans were arranged to take turns as observation posts in their own observation positions. Only then did he feel a little relieved and returned to the middle of the soldiers.

As soon as Li Ziyuan sat down, Qian Defu came over and handed him a 'jade' rice flour pancake that was not much bigger than the child's palm, as well as a kettle. took the dry food handed over by Qian Defu, but Li Ziyuan did not immediately enter: "Old Qian, do all the soldiers eat this amount?" And the wounded have also eaten? ”

In response to Li Ziyuan's rhetorical question, Qian Defu nodded and said, "Captain, what you said I remember, all the cadres and soldiers are this amount." The wounded are also in this amount, and no one is specializing. However, I didn't give this to the wounded, what I gave the wounded was a piece of Japanese-style No. 1 ration per person, plus a small piece of smoked 'meat'. ”

"I considered that the wounded needed nutrition, so I didn't give them these 'jade' rice pancakes. The last bit of ration we had left in our hands was sent to them. Also, we have in our hands the smoked 'meat' of the Japanese captured in the first two battles. Because of the strange taste, I don't know what 'meat' is, and no one has been willing to eat it. There is still a lot of left in my hands, and I have given them to the wounded. ”

"Captain, don't worry. Before giving the wounded a meal, I asked Dr. Li, and she said that what kind of fish was the 'meat' of the fish, and that it was not very good to give the wounded food, but it was much better than nothing. Oh, by the way, I'll give Dr. Li a piece too. After all, a 'girl' child was invited in that situation, and he wanted to help us take care of the wounded, so it was also appropriate to give us some special care. ”

"These dry foods are the last most of the dry food we have. When we retreated here, the last half of the remaining iron box biscuits were now a dozen or so. In addition to these dozen biscuits, there is also a little Japanese-style compressed dry food plus two cans of 'meat', which is almost all the dry food we have at hand. ”

After listening to Qian Defu's report, Li Ziyuan nodded and said: "Old Qian, you must keep this bit of dry food, and you must not distribute it easily until the last moment." I don't know how long this confrontation will last. Even if the devils retreat, no one can guarantee whether they will play 'tricks' again. ”

"At this time, paralysis is life-threatening. Don't ask me when I'll be able to get out of the mountain, I don't know now. But one thing you have to keep in mind is that we must be cautious in all our actions at this time. I'd rather go hungry for a while, and never take risks easily. This is definitely not a fear of war, but a special situation in a special situation. ”

After 'handing' Qian Defu must keep the last remaining dry food, Li Ziyuan suddenly remembered something: "What about Guo Xiaoshan's little guy?" It turns out that he has been following my ass all day, why haven't I seen him all day today? This kid won't leave me behind at this time. ”

Li Ziyuan suddenly mentioned Guo Xiaoshan, and Qian Defu pointed to the place where Li Ziyuan was a little higher and said, "Where is Xiaoshanzi?" However, I feel that he is a little weird today, as if he is a little uncomfortable. It's wilted all day today, even if the devil is under the mountain, he doesn't react. ”

Hearing Qian Defu say that Guo Xiaoshan was a little uncomfortable, Li Ziyuan couldn't help but chuckle in his heart. When this little guy went into the water, he refused to take off his clothes. After entering the mountain, everyone baked clothes, and he was reluctant to take off his clothes and bake. It's been two days of marching, and I'm still wearing wet clothes in this mountainous area, so it's strange if I don't catch a cold.

Li Ziyuan, who was a little worried about Guo Xiaoshan, did not rush to eat, but walked to Guo Xiaoshan's position in a few steps. I found that the little guy was now lying on the hillside with his stomach covered and his face flushed. Li Ziyuan went up and 'touched' his forehead, only to find that Guo Xiaoshan's head was hot like a stove.

After discovering that Guo Xiaoshan really had a high fever, Li Ziyuan couldn't care about the extreme exhaustion of his body. Strongly supported the uncomfortable body and picked up the sleeping Guo Xiaoshan. While careful not to make any noise, he avoided the weeds and shrubs on the ground without the illumination, and hurried to the location of his sister and the wounded.
