"If you want peace, you have to prepare for war."

Zhou Yiyao read it repeatedly, and felt more and more that these simple words were full of life philosophy, as if they had a huge magic power that would trap people in them.

Seeing that Zhou Yiyao did not refute, Han Xin continued to speak, "Yes, the ultimate goal of all wars is for peace, and in this world, war is absolute, but peace is relative, the world is so big, there has never been a day when war has really stopped, and the smoke of gunpowder has been extinct. ”

Han Xin's words made Zhou Yiyao silent, she is a girl with idealized ideas hidden in her heart, she even wants to refute, everyone together, live in peace, and maintain peace together, isn't it good?

But after all, there is no opening, the ideal is beautiful, but the reality is cruel, no one can really understand the complexity of human nature, and no one can summarize everything in one family's words.

After a little silence, the two tacitly shifted the heavy topic, "Yiyao, where are you from?" ”

"Sichuan, what about you?"

"Sichuan girl!" Han Xin remembered the name of young women in Sichuan in later generations, and subconsciously spoke, and then felt a little abrupt, and once again transferred the little embarrassment here: "There used to be an old neighbor in Sichuan, every time he spoke Sichuan, the speed of speech, the authentic Sichuan dialect, I couldn't understand a word, or you tell me two words of Sichuan dialect!" ”

"What do you want to hear?" Zhou Yiyao laughed.

"Whatever, if you like it."

"You really can't understand Sichuanese?" Zhou Yiyao asked, and the inexplicable Han Xin was stunned and said, "Yes, I really don't understand." ”

"Oh!" Under Han Xin's even more puzzlement, Zhou Yiyao seemed to be relieved, and then saw her suddenly raise her head and look directly into Han Xin's eyes, her beautiful eyes flashed with a beautiful look, and her tone was very firm, and it came out clearly.

"Oh, porridge puree!"

"Oh, porridge puree?" Han Xin was dumbfounded, but Zhou Yiyao ran away with red cheeks at the moment when Han Xin was stupid, leaving a sentence, I'm going to sleep!

Qianying disappeared away, and it wasn't until he disappeared into the distant horizon that Han Xin suddenly realized, "Oh porridge mud" This is not the meaning of "I like you"! Although Han Xin didn't understand the Sichuan dialect, his classmates in later generations liked to fiddle with these words, and after thinking about it carefully, he actually recalled it.

Then Han Xin looked at the mountain bag that Zhou Yiyao had left, and was stunned for a moment, and had to admit that for a moment, he lost his mind.

Han Xin's personality has created his style of doing things, in the face of various things, the first thing he thinks of is to face it and never run away, just like the girl's implicit show of love just now, Han Xin is already thinking about how to deal with it.

Promise others, it must be impossible, one is too abrupt and hasty, how is it good to let a girl who is as white as paper, and the other is that the impact is not good, this is still when the artillery is flying, no one can be sure that he will still be alive tomorrow.

As for the last and most important one, the Red Army's military discipline does not allow it, of course, the Red Army's regulations on the marriage of soldiers are not as exaggerated as written in the book "Bright Sword" in Han Xin's later memories: the age must be over 26, the military age is 8 years old, and the position is above the regimental level.

The real rules are as follows: first, the parties and their parents agree to the high court; Second, environmental conditions permit; 3. Be over 22 years old (applicable to men and women).

And looking at these three, Han Xin and Zhou Yiyao don't seem to match any of them, Gao Tang has never seen them, the war is still raging, and the two of them are less than twenty this year.

As for the "falling in love" that later generations said, pull it down, and now they don't like it at all, and even the Red Army soldiers who have just struggled out of their parents' arranged marriage still don't understand its concept at all.

Thinking about it, Han Xin laughed by himself, but no matter what, Zhou Yiyao's intentions, he already knew, and he himself understood that in his heart, there was her shadow.

***

On May 21, the repaired Red Army advance team went north and marched to the Yi area to explore the way for the large army to enter the Yi area, but it did not expect that something would happen.

The Yi and Han nationalities have been estranged in history, and the Han people have always been treated by the Yi people, and when the advance team of the Red Army entered the Yi area, they were blocked by the Yi people holding various weapons.

The task of the advance team was not to use force, but to propagate the party's ethnic policy, and to use the policy to inspire them to express friendship with the Yi compatriots and strive for a peaceful passage through the Yi area, so they had to temporarily stop their advance.

Later, I heard that there was an accident in the negotiations, and some people were injured, first, they could not understand the language, and second, the Yi compatriots had too much prejudice against the Han soldiers, and the historical Han army troops hurt them too deeply, just like now there is a Japanese left-wing force to tell you that he is the kind part of the Japanese, do you believe it?

For this reason, the army's actions were frustrated, but they could not abandon the party's policies and principles, and when they were anxious, Lin Dashan, who had just been demoted to battalion commander because he had made another mistake, also submitted an application report, saying that he was willing to take the lead and promised to negotiate with the Yi people within two days without using force, and to ensure the follow-up of the army.

Lin Dashan's application made his old boss, Wei Zhongguo, the commander of the Third Brigade of the Ninth Division, stunned, although he now really wanted someone to share his worries, after all, the advance team that lost this time belonged to his brigade.

Considering that Lin Dashan had made a mistake, he was suddenly a little uncertain.

It turned out that on the day when he passed through the outer areas of the Yi nationality, Lin Dashan, the commander of the third regiment, saw that there was not much grain in the group, and considering that the Long March did not know when it would be a head, he was afraid that there would be no shortage of grain and grass, so he thought about buying some from the people of the Yi nationality.

Who knows, these Yi people are just stunned, no matter what Lin Dashan says, even if they kneel down for others, these Yi men will not back down, and they will not sell any of them if you bid.

This made Lin Dashan, who had lost a battalion commander and was already in a bad mood, fire, Lao Tzu gave you a damn face, and immediately ignored the thirty-seven twenty-one, threw the corresponding coins on the ground, and then grabbed the food.

Later, when the brigade commander Wei Zhongguo learned about this incident, he was naturally furious, what is our policy? Friendly to the people, you Lin Dashan is good, you started to do the work of bandits, this is worth it, immediately reported criticism, directly demoted from the regiment commander company to three levels, and became the commander of the first battalion, just right, the first battalion commander Kong Er sacrificed.

Lin Dashan was dissatisfied with this, and retorted that he gave money, Wei Zhongguo's beard was cocked because of this, you fucking are forced to buy and sell, if you do this, Lao Tzu directly used the money to buy your wife to warm the quilt, and then said that Lao Tzu also gave money, you can't do it!

In a word, Lin Dashan was speechless, and he was depressed in his heart, where did he come from.

Therefore, Lin Dashan has already offended the Yi compatriots, and the brigade commander Wei Zhongguo is really a little worried about him going, don't stab the basket again.

For this reason, Lin Dashan explained that he would not go into battle in person, and sent the soldiers of the third regiment and the third class to communicate with the Yi compatriots.

"Lin Dashan, you kid have memorized it for me, if this matter is done, I will let you reinstate the official, if it is done badly......"

"You punish me to feed the horses and go to the cooking class, anyway, the brigade commander said that I will not be ambiguous even if I pour you a night pot."

"Go to the beauty you think, if you mess up the military law, Lao Tzu will kill you directly!" What he wanted to say was preempted by Lin Dashan, this kid, this is worth it, Wei Zhongguo suddenly changed his words, and then looked at the brigade staff officer who was listening to his phone call and laughed.

In the third regiment, in Lin Dashan's temporary military hut, Lin Dashan felt that he seemed to be playing a little too big for the first time, but because of his own cleverness, he was afraid that the brigade commander was really good, and he suddenly became depressed.

"Han Xin, I said that you kid is going to handle this matter for me, this is related to our old Lin's head! You heard what the brigade commander said, if you mess up this......"

"Commander, you can rest assured, I promise to complete the task." Han Xin, who had already been called over by Lin Dashan, made a guarantee, after all, he gave Lin Dashan the idea, saying that with this time, Lin Dashan could be reinstated.

Lin Dashan was quite surprised by this, and as Han Xin expected, the brigade commander gave a guarantee, so this time for Lin Dashan, it can be regarded as betting on Han Xin, and even Han Xin was temporarily appointed as the leader of the advance team of the third regiment, and the soldiers of the three classes, including Xu Bao, must unconditionally obey his dispatch.

In the afternoon of that day, Han Xin and the others were fully prepared and began to march towards the Yi area.
