Chapter 064: Make Up Your Mind

Don't lament the pain of life! Sigh is the weak. -- Gorky

"Li Baoqiang, in fact, everyone can see it, you want to go outside and take a look, maybe you can save more people, or see what's going on outside. The last time you wanted to go out, we all stopped you, it was because we were frightened by He Qun's rebellion, and now that everything is on track, I think you can go outside and break in, but I want to follow you. When there was no one in private, Zhao Xiaoxiao comforted Li Baoqiang considerately.

Li Baoqiang hugged Zhao Xiaoxiao's waist and sighed with emotion: "It's still my lover who knows what he thinks!" Why hasn't the fat man come back yet, could it be that something has happened? ”

Speak of the devil. A soldier came over and reported to Li Baoqiang: "Report to the instructor, the company commander is back." Li Baoqiang was stunned, "Company commander? Oh, it's the fat man Wang Zhiming who is back. Li Baoqiang felt relieved that the soldiers were on the right track, calling others by name and position on formal occasions, and behaving exactly like a real soldier.

When I walked into the conference room, I saw the fat man throwing off his cheeks and eating a plate of fried shredded potatoes, and said while eating: "It's so delicious, I haven't seen much vegetables outside for a while, and it doesn't taste good in my mouth." ”

"Haha, there will always be a day when you have eaten enough, and we want to vomit when we see potatoes now." Li Baoqiang joked about the fat man, and now the two of them will be uncomfortable without gags.

"I gained a lot this time, and the most important thing is that I know the situation in Chengdu." The fat man mysteriously reported to Li Baoqiang.

This time, the fat man Wang Zhiming went out for more than a month, did not continue to deal with Guangyuan, but moved closer to Chengdu according to Li Baoqiang's intentions, but did not approach Chengdu, after all, Chengdu is far from here, and no vehicles have been found, and the roads have been destroyed by the earthquake.

However, along the way, he found several large and small refugee bases, the fat man and these bases have contact, seeing the living conditions of these bases did not hope that the village was good, but still sat and ate empty eyes, the fat man was very pleased to hope that the village under the leadership of Li Baoqiang has undergone great changes, especially the material changes in life, at least don't worry about food, Huayang's energy bar is indeed very hungry.

In a small base near Jiangyou, the fat man finally inquired about the situation in Chengdu. According to them, there are three refugee bases in Chengdu now, which are controlled by former government officials and the underworld, and they are intriguing with each other, fighting and killing all day long, and the refugee base is in a mess and the people are struggling to make a living.

"And there are a lot of weapons in the refugee camp, and it seems that there is a battalion of army troops who also occupy the mountain and rule a refugee base, which is probably the case." The fat man finished in one breath.

Li Baoqiang was silent after hearing this, and secretly pondered. The reason for the miasma in Chengdu is that the Sichuan people are brave and ruthless in their character, and there is a saying that "no Sichuan can not be an army" since ancient times.

During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, whether it was the Central Army or other local troops, there were a large number of Sichuan people. It is no wonder that there is a saying on the frontal battlefield of the anti-Japanese resistance that "no Sichuan can not be an army". "No Sichuan, no army" not only refers to the large number of Sichuan soldiers in the Kuomintang army, but also contains praise for the brave, tenacious, and unafraid sacrifice spirit of the Sichuan soldiers in the Sichuan army and other units.

During the Battle of Taierzhuang, Wang Mingzhang, the commander of the 122nd Division, was ordered to garrison Teng County, and the main force of the Japanese army, the Itagaki Division, stormed Teng County, bombarded with heavy artillery and aircraft, and blew up the city wall. After the martyrdom of the division commander Wang, the officers and soldiers of the department resisted house by house, fighting to the last man, and the wounded soldiers in the city did not want to be taken prisoner, so they used grenades to die with the enemy who rushed in. In the battle of Tengxian, almost all the more than 5,000 people of the 122nd Division were killed or wounded, but more than 4,000 Japanese soldiers were also killed.

Chen Li's division, which was deployed in the Jiehe and Longshan areas north of Teng County, also suffered four or five thousand casualties. The great sacrifice of the Sichuan army won the victory in the Battle of Taierzhuang, and Li Zongren sighed in his memoirs: "If there is no stubbornness in Teng County, there will be a great victory in Taierzhuang!" The Sichuan army was outnumbered and wrote the most glorious page in the history of the Sichuan army! ”

And now, after the outbreak of the apocalypse, the population has been greatly reduced, and now because these rulers are vying for power and fighting, I don't know how much more population will be consumed. Li Baoqiang finally couldn't sit still, and decided to go to Chengdu to see what the outside world is like and what role he can play in it.

Thinking of this, Li Baoqiang felt very sad about the fratricidal situation in Chengdu, and he couldn't sit down for a moment.

Li Baoqiang did not convene a meeting with the management this time, and he knew that if he really had to hold a meeting, everyone would definitely not agree to go out. Li Baoqiang directly gave orders to Zhang Juncai and the fat man. "I'm going to lead the team to Chengdu, Zhang Juncai is in charge of all the work at home, and the fat man is responsible for the company's training and security."

The two saw the eager look in Li Baoqiang's eyes, and knew that Li Baoqiang would not stay in Hope Village this time, although they were reluctant in their hearts, they finally agreed. "How many men do you bring? There is a shortage of soldiers outside, so let's bring more people! The fat man proposed.

Li Baoqiang called the fat man aside and advised: "I only bring five male soldiers and five female soldiers, plus Zhao Xiaoxiao." Li Baoqiang knew that Zhao Xiaoxiao would definitely be with him, so he decided to go out and take her with him this time. You must protect the safety of the village at home, and if necessary, you can take decisive measures, and you must not be soft-hearted. ”

Li Baoqiang repeatedly advised. After all, the time to go out this time will not be short, I hope that the village is my base camp, as well as these familiar villagers and mountains and rivers, if it falls again, half a year's hard work will be in vain, Li Baoqiang will never let such a thing happen again, the fat man Wang Zhiming nodded solemnly.

At four or five o'clock the next morning, Li Baoqiang led ten heavily armed male and female soldiers, as well as Zhao Xiaoxiao, to set off quietly. I don't want to alarm the villagers when I set off so early, otherwise, the villagers will definitely come to see each other off, or prevent Li Baoqiang from going out, after all, Li Baoqiang has still become the protector in the hearts of the villagers.

Li Baoqiang explained the purpose of this outing to the ten soldiers while marching. When the soldiers heard that they were going to Chengdu to reconnoitre, they were all excited. Li Baoqiang reminded: "Don't be happy too early, this road is long and the danger must exist, you must protect yourself, and at the same time be ready to sacrifice." ”
