Chapter 155: Spring is Good

When Li Chengyi arrived in Huangsi Village, the villagers were all having lunch, and the militia quickly led him to Zhang Damiang's house.

Seeing Tang Xingying, Li Chengyi told her that he was ordered by the commander of the regiment to take her back to the regiment headquarters and asked her to hand over the work to her comrades.

Tang Xingying complained to Li Chengyi, why didn't she come to pick her up before the war, and after the battle, she remembered that she was still a member of the Seventh Legion. It's a shame that she worries every day here, can't eat well, can't sleep.

was complaining, when she saw Li Chengyi's eyes full of smiles when she looked at her, and her brain rang with a bang. After the war, come to pick yourself up, will it be to let you go back and get married?

As soon as he thought of getting married, the handsome and upright figure immediately appeared in front of him, his little face turned red, and he didn't dare to say more, so he hurriedly found Song Guangwu, Yan Yaocai, and Wu Shengzhi, and told them that he had received an order to return to the army, and he might not come back again. The work of Huangsi Village has been regularized, and the next step is to organize the villagers, repair the canals well, ensure irrigation, and strive for a bumper harvest this year, so that the villagers will no longer go hungry.

Hearing that Instructor Tang was leaving, Li Shishi, Ergen and many villagers came to see him off.

Aunt Zhang saw that Tang Xingying was shy, and the Red Army soldiers who came to pick her up were also happy, so she quietly asked her if she wanted to go back and get married?

Tang Xingying said coquettishly: "Auntie, what are you talking about!" ”

But Aunt Zhang still saw the doorway, and insisted on stuffing a pair of pillows embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water and ready to make a dowry for her daughter.

At this time, Song Guangwu, Yan Yaocai, and Wu Shengzhi all saw the doorway, hurriedly took out the money on their bodies, went to the village to buy some red dates and peanuts, and forcibly stuffed them to the soldiers of the guard squad, saying that they were a little affectionate, and brought them back to Xi'an for the comrades to taste.

Shaanxi people are kind, Tang Xingying is here to lead everyone to make land reform, which is really seeking liberation for the poor, and the villagers have deep feelings for her. As soon as they saw that the comrades of the work team were taking money to buy things, the villagers immediately took out walnuts, persimmons, peanuts, jujubes and other things at home. As a result, when Tang Xingying finished his work and went out to get on the horse, he found that the soldiers of the guard squad he brought were all things on the horses.

Tang Xingying was reluctant when she boarded, wasn't she looking for her to go back and be criticized? Immediately ordered the soldiers of the guard squad to send the things back from where they came from.

Li Shishi blocked the soldiers who were unloading things, and said to Tang Xingying: "Director Tang, this is all a little bit of the villagers' thoughts. The Russians know that your hometown is in Guangxi, and you are alone in the Red Army, so the Russians will treat you as the daughter of the Russian village. Just now, the Russians guessed that you were afraid that you were going to get married when you went back. When this girl gets married, her mother's family must always accompany her with some dowry, otherwise she won't be able to raise her head when she gets to her in-law's house. It's a pity that the Russians are too poor now to get a dowry, these things are grown in the ground, so you can bring them, and they can be regarded as the daughters of the whole village of Russians. ”

said that Tang Xingying was teary-eyed, Li Chengyi was afraid that Tang Xingying would cry out with emotion when he saw that he would continue to talk about it, and hurriedly took out the rewards he had issued several times from his body, stuffed them into Li Shishi, and asked him to transfer them to the villagers.

Li Shishi was annoyed, and the wrinkles on his forehead jumped up: "You comrade is unreasonable, do you think the Russians are anyone?" The Russians are adding boxes to their daughters, don't mess around if you don't understand! ”

Tang Xingying had no choice but to leave Huangsi Village with the affection of the villagers in Huangsi Village.

After returning to the legion headquarters, Tang Xingying went directly to Liu Yimin's office.

After Liu Yimin finished writing the letter to Yan Xishan, he began to think about the problem of the cavalry division.

After thinking about it, I feel that the current road conditions in China are too difficult to build a car, and it is okay in the base area, but if you go to the battlefield, gasoline alone cannot be guaranteed. Originally, I wanted to develop the oil fields in northern Shaanxi, but if I think about it carefully, it is unrealistic. If oil fields are developed in northern Shaanxi, it is very likely that the devils will regard Shaanxi as a key target. He even said that he would change his strategy and no longer launch the Pacific War, but concentrate all his efforts on solving the Chinese problem, in which case China's war of resistance would be difficult. Because in history, until the end of the Anti-Japanese War, I thought that there was no oil in China, and if oil was produced now, it was difficult to imagine what I would do in order to scarve of resources.

It seems that at this stage, only the development of cavalry can improve the mobility of the troops. Each infantry squad of the Tsing Ma unit has a horse, which is used to carry ammunition and baggage, and this method is worth learning. Especially in mountain warfare, war horses have a lot of advantages over automobiles. But if there are too many war horses, the horse material is not a small amount, and the consumption will increase a lot, and the logistical pressure will be greater.

Training is also a problem, it is not possible to train cavalry in the plains in this pass, they must be allowed to go to the grassland to train, and use the elimination of horse bandits to improve their combat effectiveness.

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Tang Xingying walk in. I haven't seen her for so many days, this girl seems to have been exercised, and the squeamishness on her body is gone, and she seems to be much simpler.

Liu Yimin hurriedly got up to greet him, and as soon as he called "Xing Ying", Tang Xingying flew into his arms like a bird.

After a while, Liu Yimin told Tang Xingying about the marriage scheduled for April 8, and asked her to go back to rest and prepare. Whatever is required, though, as long as he can do it, he will definitely satisfy her.

Tang Xingying cried with joy.

A 17-year-old girl who has been in love with her sweetheart for so long, once her wish comes true, her feelings naturally need to be vented.

Liu Yimin knew that this girl was overjoyed, so he laughed and teased her: "Are you unwilling to marry me?" If that's the case, I won't force you. The marriage is canceled! ”

Tang Xingying immediately raised his face: "You dare!" Flower ghosts! ”

After speaking, seeing Liu Yimin smiling, he knew that he had fallen for this guy, and immediately raised his fist and slapped him a few times.

Liu Yimin was in his youth, and when he saw Tang Xingying's daughter's surname, he picked her up, and the two kissed together.

At this moment, Tang Xingying's heart was about to jump out of his chest.

On April 8th, the wind was beautiful and the spring was bright.

Early in the morning, a joyful couplet was pasted on the door of Liu Yimin's room. Li Chengyi led several guards to light firecrackers in the courtyard.

At ten o'clock in the morning, [***], Zhou Enlai, Zhu De, Zhang Wentian, Chen Yun, Wang Jiaxiang, [***], Deng Fa, Bogu, Li De and others all arrived at the headquarters of the Seventh Army Corps.

Liu Yimin, Luo Ronghuan, Cai Zhong, Zeng Zhongsheng, Wu Zheng, Gao Yuan, Liu Jianjian, Li Qing, Feng Dafei, Zhang Hongtao, Hong Chaoyuan, Huang Su and other cadres of the Seventh Army Corps greeted them at the door.

[***] said to Liu Yimin with a smile: "Come to your wedding, it's not good to be empty-handed, I wrote you a letter, I don't know if you like it or not." ”

Liu Yimin hurriedly said: "Anything you write, it's a treasure, I can't be honored, where can I not like it." ”

[***] asked squad leader Hu to take out the words. When everyone looked at it, their eyes lit up, and they saw a six-character poem written on the mounted scroll: "The mountain is high, the road is far away, the pit is deep, and the army is galloping." Who dares to slash right away? Only I General Liu! ”

Liu Yimin was stunned, how did this poem written to Mr. Peng be written to him? hurriedly asked Li Chengyi to put it away, and even said that he couldn't afford it.

[***] smiled: "If the legendary heroes of our Red Army can't afford it, then who can't afford it?" A word, it's not worth anything, don't make such a fuss. ”

Li De has seen the miracles created by the Red Army during this time, and his views on [***], Zhou Enlai, and Zhu De have changed. Especially for Liu Yimin, who taught him in the channel, he admired and respected him very much. After knowing the news of Liu Yimin's marriage today, he also rushed here. At this time, after seeing [***], Li De came up and hugged Liu Yimin and gave a Russian-style greeting gift. It's over, he gave Liu Yimin a thumbs up and called Ou Qin Harashao.

Liu Yimin smiled: "Comrade Li De, welcome to your visit, please go in and drink tea!" ”

At 11 o'clock, the Red Seventh Army held a wedding ceremony for Liu Yimin in the restaurant.

Luo Ronghuan, Cai Zhong, and Wu Zheng all knew that Liu Yimin was knowledgeable and had a good understanding of Western culture. Therefore, when planning a wedding, some details of Western weddings were borrowed. For this reason, Wu Zheng also went to the Xi'an Library to dig out the newspaper when Chiang Kai-shek and Soong Meiling got married, and studied the details of Chiang Kai-shek's wedding.

The wedding was presided over by Cai Zhong, director of the Political Department of the Red Seventh Army.

Today's Cai Zhong, wearing a brand-new military uniform, has a happy face, and the monkey on his brow is bright.

I only heard Cai Zhong shouting: "The wedding ceremony of Comrade Liu Yimin and Comrade Tang Xingying begins." Please take your seat for the bride and groom. ”

Wang Dahu and Li Chengyi accompanied Liu Yimin to stand in front of Cai Zhong, and Zhao Xiaoman and Jingjing accompanied Tang Xingying to come up.

When everyone saw it, Liu Yimin changed into a suit, Tang Xingying was wearing a white wedding dress, Wu Zheng's son Wu Feng and Zeng Zhao's daughter Zeng Xiu'er both held the tail hem of the wedding dress, playing the role of a flower girl.

Some of these old Red Army soldiers have studied abroad, so they naturally know the grandeur of Western weddings. Most people have never seen this kind of stance, and they are stunned.

Lide spoke a few words of Russian out loud.

Asked Wu Xiuquan what Li De said, Wu Xiuquan said, Comrade Li De said, God, it's so perfect, the man is the god of war descending to earth, and the woman is an angel descending to the world. I have traveled all over Europe and have never seen such a handsome groom, nor such a beautiful bride. Oh my God, I'm going to faint!

[***] burst out laughing.

Mr. Zhu said: "Runzhi, don't say it, this Li De really has a vision, I see, as soon as Liu Yimin is decorated, he is absolutely rich and jade, and he is a first-class beautiful man!" Even Ji Kang of the Western Jin Dynasty is probably like this. ”

Zhou En said: "Boss, don't interrupt, see how Cai Zhong and them toss." ”

Then, Cai Zhong shouted again: "Please invite the officiant Luo Ronghuan, political commissar, and Comrade Wu Zheng, the witness to the marriage, to play." ”

After Luo Ronghuan and Wu Zheng came on the field, the leaders and comrades saluted in both directions.

Then, Cai Zhong asked a couple to make marriage vows to each other.

Liu Yimin looked at Tang Xingying and said: "I, Liu Yimin, am willing to be a revolutionary partner with Comrade Tang Xingying, fight together for the cause of people's liberation, do my best, and die." Hold the hand of the son, and grow old with the son. I am willing to love you and care for you all my life, and use my love to make you happy for a lifetime! ”

Tang Xingying was a little dizzy with excitement, so many people, he actually said that, so how can I say it? After thinking about it, Tang Xingying said: "I, Tang Xingying, am willing to be Liu Yimin's wife, no matter whether the weather is sunny or cloudy, I am willing to use my life to protect and love you, for the rest of my life, never give up, no regrets!" ”

Next, the officiant Luo Ronghuan spoke.

The restaurant was quiet, and Luo Ronghuan's thick Hunan accent spread to every corner: "Comrade Liu Yimin is a legendary hero of our Red Army. Starting from Xinwei alone blowing up the artillery position of the Gui Army, he fought fiercely at Gulingtou and Xiangjiang River, set up an ambush in Xiaoshui, annihilated the enemy at Xikou, fought Qingxi Town and Yangping Town, attacked Chengdu City for thousands of miles, destroyed the first division in the world, and completely defeated the Northwest Evil Wolf Ma Jiajun, accumulated military exploits and made great reputations. Since Comrade Tang Xingying joined the Red Army, he has also performed very well, twice capturing officers of the enemy's vanguard troops, and making the first contribution to the victory of the Qingxi Town Battle and the Hanyang Town Battle. They are the pride of our Red Army and a pair of heroic sons and daughters. Today is their wedding day, as their comrades-in-arms, I bless them! I wish them to love each other, grow old together, and make greater contributions to our Red Army, the toiling masses of the world, and the construction of a new China! ”

Wu Zheng shook his head and memorized the ancient poem: "The peach is dying, scorching its flower, and the son is returning, and it is appropriate for his family." What does that mean? That is to say, in this beautiful spring, our heroic Comrade Liu Yimin married the beautiful Comrade Tang Xingying as his bride, and their children will definitely live a good and happy life. A lifetime is a dragon and phoenix fetus, two in a year, four in two years, and in twenty years, it is a platoon. When the time comes, the scare can scare Chiang Kai-shek and the devil to death! ”

Wu Zheng's words were laughing and the people leaned back and forth, and the atmosphere immediately became lively.

Next, Cai Zhong shouted to worship heaven and earth. After the two of them finished worshipping, Cai Zhong then shouted and bowed to [***], Vice Chairman Zhou, and Commander-in-Chief Zhu.

panicked [***], Zhou Enlai, and Zhu De hurriedly stood up, and Liu Yimin and Tang Xingying bowed respectfully three times in a row.

Cai Zhong then shouted to the husband and wife to worship each other. After the two of them finished worshipping, Cai Zhong shouted loudly in a long voice: "Send it to the cave room!" ”

This wedding became a grand and luxurious wedding in the history of the Red Army. The only fly in the ointment is that because Liu Yimin had no money, he didn't buy a diamond ring for Tang Xingying, otherwise, it would be almost the same as a wedding in later generations.

By the time Liu Yimin and Tang Xingying changed into military uniforms and came out to toast the leaders and comrades, the restaurant had already been drunk.

There were eight hot and cold dishes on each table, as well as peanuts, red dates, and sugar cubes, wine was good wine, and cigarettes were good cigarettes, and the Red Army warriors naturally drank happily.

Liu Yimin and Tang Xingying first toasted the central leaders one by one, and then toasted their comrades-in-arms one by one, and in the end, others didn't know how much they drank, but Liu Yimin was in decline and was sent back to the room by Wang Dahu and Li Chengyi early to rest.

Seeing that Liu Yimin was stunned, he said to Zhu De with a smile: "It's over, I'm afraid our big hero's wedding night will be spent in sleep." ”

Mr. Zhu said with a smile: "Come to say Fang Chang, come to Fang Chang." ”

Before the words were finished, the cadres of the Seventh Army Corps, who had stunned the commander of the legion, took turns to come over to toast. They all salute first, report the number and position of the unit, and then invite [***] to drink, Vice Chairman Zhou to drink, and Commander-in-Chief Zhu to drink.

The seven divisions of the seven corps, the three main divisions have supplementary regiments, plus the regiments directly under the corps, a total of 30 regiments, as well as departments directly under the corps, pharmaceutical factories, arsenals, and field hospitals. In addition, today is the wedding of the love general, [***] and other central leaders are happy, at the beginning they did not refuse to come, but in the end they couldn't resist. Mr. Zhu had to drunken and order no more toasts, and everyone toasted together to bless the newcomers.

In the end, these central leaders were drunk and escorted back by the guards.

The remaining cadres of the Seventh Legion did not leave, and they kept drinking and chatting.

It turned out that when the 18th Regiment was small, the troops were small, the combat marches were all together, and the comrades-in-arms saw each other every day. Now the troops have expanded into the Seventh Army Corps, which is strong and strong, but the defense is far apart, and there are fewer opportunities for old comrades-in-arms to meet. Taking advantage of the regiment commander's wedding, everyone got together and had an endless sense of comradeship. But more often than not, it is to discuss the upcoming training competitions and flag awards.

Gao Yuan is very confident in his 31st Regiment, especially the first battalion and one company, which is absolutely confident. Li Qing saw that he was full of confidence, so he smiled and said: "Gao Yuan, your 31st regiment is not necessarily stronger than my 37th regiment, and my 38th regiment and 39th regiment are also fought out in blood and fire." This time, I want to see if your 11th Division has a high level of training, or the heroes of my 13th Division are amazing! ”

When Gao Yuan heard it, didn't he want to challenge the position of the boss of the Seventh Army of the 11th Division? immediately poured the wine: "Lao Li, don't fight a lawsuit, let's go head-to-head today, and win or lose to see the high and low." ”

Li Qing shook his head: "We are civilized people, if we don't stretch out our fingers to you, an uneducated person, if you want to drink, we will drink it equally, and whoever falls first will admit defeat." Do you dare? ”

When Gao Yuan heard this, his eyebrows were raised: "The cow is open!" I've become a cultured person on the plateau! Drink, who is afraid of whom! ”

Liu Jianli, Zhang Hongtao, Hong Chaoyuan, Zhao Shan, and Lei Ming on the side were unwilling, Liu Jianli said: "This Seventh Army is not just your two divisions, don't we exist?" Drink! It's all down, my 12th division hasn't been afraid of anyone yet! Whoever drinks first and lies down will have to admit defeat in the competition! ”

Now it was lively, and several division commanders and political commissars replaced their wine glasses with large bowls, and began to drink until they all fell on the table, and they didn't figure out who was better than whom.

Hu Laohu, the commander of the cavalry, and Li Chang, the commander of the artillery regiment, also met at the drinking table. Both are people who don't admit defeat, and the same is true of this drinking. At the beginning, both of them were more civilized, and they drank from small wine cups one by one. In the end, I started to guess the punch.

The more he drank, the more energetic he became, and at the end of the drink, Hu Laohu said to Li Chang: "If you dare to go to the cave room tonight, I will drink three glasses!" ”

Li Chang shook his head: "Three cups is too little, I'll drink six cups, you go." ”

Hu Laohu said: "I'll drink nine cups, you go." ”

Li Chang said: "I'll drink 12 cups, you go." ”

Ren Chaoran saw that they gambled more and more, so he said, "Just like this, you two drink 16 cups each, and I'll go." I'll tell you more about it. ”

Both of them say that your kid's words count?

Ren Chaoran nodded vigorously: "Of course, I promise [***] that it will definitely count." ”

This time, Li Chang and Hu Laohu both drank away. After drinking sixteen glasses, the two of them drank vigorously, climbed onto the table and fell asleep.

Ren Chaoran waved his hand, called a few soldiers, and took Li Chang and Hu Laohu back to rest.

When Liu Yimin woke up, it was already night.

I drank too much, and the smell of alcohol was so smoky that I couldn't help but want to vomit.

When he opened his eyes, there was a happy word pasted in the room, and Tang Xingying was sitting on the edge of the bed looking at him affectionately.

Liu Yimin then remembered that today is his own marriage, and the beautiful girl in front of him is his bride, and she will be his wife in the future, and she will be his closest person in the world.

Seeing Liu Yimin wake up, Tang Xingying hurriedly poured a cup of hot tea and asked him to drink it to suppress the wine.

After drinking tea, I felt better, so Liu Yimin asked what time it was?

Tang Xingying said it's 10 o'clock in the evening, are you hungry?

Liu Yimin drank a stomach of wine, and he was already hungry, so he nodded.

Tang Xingying went out and brought back a big bowl of whistle noodles from the room, oily, spicy, sour and fragrant. After Liu Yimin finished eating, he felt that the taste was very good, so he asked him to make another bowl.

Tang Xingying went to serve another bowl, Liu Yimin finished eating, wiped his mouth, and said, "It's good to have a wife!" ”

Tang Xingying said: "Fool, you know! ”

Liu Yimin said seriously: "Xingying, you will be my wife from now on, we are a family of two?" ”

Tang Xingying's face turned red with shame, and she lowered her head and said "um".

Liu Yimin said again: "Then the two of us are going to depend on each other?" ”

Tang Xingying let out another "um".

Liu Yimin sighed in his heart, since he crossed over, from today onwards, he can be regarded as completely integrated into this era, and he is going to marry a wife and have children here. How happy it would be if poor parents could know!

Tang Xingying saw that Liu Yimin was not in the right mood, so she hurriedly reached out and touched his forehead, and asked cautiously, "What's wrong with you?" Aren't you upset? ”

Liu Yimin came back to his senses, and when he saw Tang Xingying's expression of concern, he smiled and said, "How can I not be happy?" The three joys of life, the most precious flower candle in the cave room, you are so beautiful, so excellent, I like it very much! ”

Tang Xingying sneered: "Flim tongue!" ”

Liu Yimin saw that Tang Xing cherry blossoms under the lamp were as delicate as flowers, and couldn't help but feel moved inside, picked her up and put her on the bed, and kissed her deeply.

Tang Xingying closed her eyes, her long eyelashes blinked slightly, and let him kiss him all the way from her forehead and eyes. When Liu Yimin reached out to unbutton her clothes, Tang Xingying whispered, "Fool, pull the lamp." ”

Liu Yimin then remembered to pull the lamp, and hurriedly got up to pull the light switch. As soon as I pulled the lamp rope, I couldn't help but think of the joke about pulling the lamp in later generations, and I was funny. Looking at Tang Xingying on the bed again, her starry eyes were closed, her face was like jade, she was so beautiful and lovely, she felt that although she had crossed over and left the original beautiful era, God finally did not thin on herself, met the Red Army, and met such a beautiful girl. I can't let this girl down, I can't live up to this good time.

Gently pulling down the lamp rope, Liu Yimin walked towards the bed. After a short time, the room sounded the sonata of youth with lingering love.
