Chapter 30: The Jade Hibiscus in the Waves
Lu Caiting's eyes turned, and he thought about it a little; "Senior brother's words, senior brother keep it in mind, the weapon, send it to the bank of the Yuma River in the nearby reeds, and I will arrange for someone to transport it back to the mountain. After www.biquge.info saying this, he shouted at the crowd; "Land Tiger!"
"Oh, it's coming—" Lu Xiaohu said loudly from the crowd, and came to Lu Caiting like a wind.
Lu Caiting looked at him and smiled; "Only if you work hard again, immediately cross the river and rush to Horseshoe Bay, inform Zhu Meng, tell him to prepare a manpower boat, row across the river, wait in the reeds on the shore, after lunch, the **** brothers will send the weapons and equipment there, let's transport the weapons and equipment to Horseshoe Bay first, and then transport it back to Jiangjunao and Dongqiao Village after dark."
After Lu Xiaohu left, Lu Caiting asked Fang Zhiwei again; "Senior brother, after the junior brother leaves, I still have a few people who will continue to study telecommunications technology here for a period of time, and I hope that the senior brother will take care of some."
Fang Zhiwei smiled heartily, patted him on the shoulder and said; "Senior brother, don't worry, your people can stay here and continue their studies with peace of mind, and when they are qualified and graduated, I will send them back to the mountain." After speaking, he turned around and commanded Xiao Yunguang again; "Section Chief Xiao, the quartermaster warehouse has prepared the weapons and equipment awarded to the special combat team, you should be careful and check it again, don't make any mistakes."
Xiao Yunguang immediately took the order and left.
Lu Caiting and the special combat team members and the soldiers of the **** special service platoon all took a hot bath happily, everyone suddenly felt tired and relieved, after the people of the special combat team took a bath, they did not change into clean **** clothes, but still put on their own clothes and pants.
At the celebration banquet, the big table of sumptuous dishes, the big altar and the big bowl of liquor, everyone was in a happy mood, drunk hotly, frequently persuaded each other, you come and go, shouting and roaring, the wine splashed, like a flowing rainbow hanging spring, the lively scene is better than the festival on the first day of the New Year.
Fang Zhiwei's face was flushed with alcohol, and he didn't stop for a moment, here he had to drink wine to others, or others to toast each other, and there he had to receive congratulatory phone calls and telegrams from the commander of the theater and the military headquarters, or congratulatory telegrams from neighboring friendly troops, he was very busy, but his mood was extremely comfortable and refreshing.
At the banquet table, there were many people who were drunk, and a large number of national officers, especially the officers and soldiers of the special service platoon who participated in the blowing up of the main position of the Japanese army's heavy artillery, almost all of them lay down, and on the side of the special combat team, Lin Zhifeng and Ning Chenlong, although there were many team members who blocked the wine for the two of them, they were still drunk and their eyes were straight and they were staggering.
Lu Caiting was a little drunk and hazy, in the face of ****'s friendly affection, it was difficult to resist, and he returned to the family on behalf of the independent column of the New Fourth Army, **** After all, there are many people, a few laps down, the bowls and mouths are dry, although the **** generals sincerely admired the thumbs up and cheered, but he also drank a lot of wine, he didn't dare to be greedy anymore, for fear of delaying the afternoon's affairs, and hurriedly got up to say goodbye to Fang Zhiwei and many **** generals.
The generals are all on the rise, but everyone also understands that there is no banquet in the world, although they are reluctant, they still give up, and the generals who can stand up are up and reluctantly send off the guests.
The guests and hosts walked out of the gate of the division headquarters, an adjutant and a large group of soldiers were waiting there, next to them were stacked with weapons and ammunition, two mortars, a Makqin heavy machine gun, four Czech light machine guns, all Zhongzheng rifles, bullets, grenades, shells, everything was available, as well as the loot captured by the Japanese sniper team last time and the firearms and equipment funded by the **** reward were all there.
The guests and hosts said goodbye, cherished each other, sincere feelings and sadness were overflowing, everyone hugged their fists and said goodbye in the farewell, until they could no longer see the figure of the special combat team, Fang Zhiwei exhaled a long breath and whispered; "A hundred pots of wine travel to Lingyun, drunk and wave their sleeves goodbye to the old people. I can't bear to say goodbye to Yiyi, who is like Emei half a moon? He used the poem 'Boat to the Moon' by Lu You in the Southern Song Dynasty to express his sad mood at the moment.
The adjutant and the soldiers carried guns and ammunition, and sent the special combat team members to the bank of the Yuma River in the reeds, but along the way, Lu Caiting wondered in his heart, the enthusiastic and capable major reconnaissance section chief Xiao Yunguang did not come to see him off, and he had drunk with him at the banquet just now, could it be that he was drunk? It's inconvenient to ask about this kind of thing, and I didn't see him when I parted, and I felt strange and uncomfortable, and I couldn't say it.
Lu Xiaohu, Zhu Meng, and Zhu Biao had already docked three caravans on the bank of the river, waiting there with dozens of people, seeing Lu Caiting and them coming, everyone rushed up to catch the weapons and ammunition, Lu Caiting hurriedly took out some silver dollars from his pocket, and asked Lu Xiaohu to take out some silver dollars, he put them together and handed them to the adjutant Dao; "Thank you, brothers, for your hard work, go back and have some wine."
The adjutant refused, but he was generous, and immediately distributed it to the soldiers, and the soldiers received the tips and left with great gratitude.
The weapons and ammunition were quickly loaded on the three caravans, Zhu Meng also urged everyone to get on the boat quickly, Lu Caiting raised his legs and was about to step onto the boat, when a shout came from the reeds behind him; "Deputy Captain Lu is slow!"
There was a sound in the reeds, and seven or eight people came out of it, the first of which was Xiao Yunguang, and the soldiers behind him carried two mortars and a heavy machine gun in their hands.
Lu Caiting hurriedly stepped forward to meet Xiao Yunguang and asked in surprise; "Section Chief Xiao, I mean I didn't see you during the parting send-off, I felt awkward, why did you come here?"
Xiao Yunguang laughed; "Brother is a special arrangement of the teacher's seat, and he has been waiting for you here for a long time." With that, he turned back and pointed to the mortars and heavy machine guns and continued; "These two mortars and heavy machine guns were specially arranged by the division seat to be given to you again, in order to avoid people's eyes, so the brothers came here in advance, and this is to send weapons to your New Fourth Army, if it is transmitted to the theater commander's department, it will be inappropriate after all, and the division seat is also responsible for a lot of involvement."
Lu Caiting hurriedly ordered Lu Xiaohu and others to take over the mortar and heavy machine gun, Lu Caiting took Xiao Yunguang's hand and said gratefully; "Thank you for the support of Senior Brother and Brother Xiao, there is a way to be a great grace without thanks, this lover will be remembered in my heart, and I will be rewarded if I have the opportunity in the future."
Xiao Yunguang replied modestly; "Deputy Captain Lu said this, we are all standing on the anti-Japanese front, we share the same hatred of the enemy, and we should be able to help each other, okay, brothers are inconvenient to stay for a long time, so I will leave, and next time we will work together to annihilate the devil!" After saying that, he hugged his fists and said goodbye, and hurriedly turned back with seven or eight soldiers and burrowed into the reeds.
Seeing Xiao Yunguang's disappearing figure, Lu Caiting's blood was boiling, his heart was full of infinite gratitude, he and the other party were just meeting for the first time, but they could feel the meaning of seeing each other and hating each other, he had been influenced by the profound martial arts of the Taoist sect for a long time, and he cultivated to be thick, and his temperament was modest and calm, but he was a person in his temperament.
After the boat arrived at Horseshoe Bay, everyone quietly carried all the weapons and ammunition to the backyard of the Zhu family's compound, closed the door of the compound, killed pigs and geese, and arranged dinner to celebrate.
In the lobby room, everyone sat down, the maid sent hot tea to everyone, Lin Zhifeng, Ning Chenlong and the two walked quickly, and the river wind on the boat was blowing, and after all, they were young and vigorous, and the wine was completely disappeared at this time, but they felt a little dry mouth, and they hurriedly picked up the hot tea and drank it slowly.
The father and daughter of the Zhu family and Lin Zhifeng, Ning Chenlong have never met, Lu Caiting, Zhu Meng hurriedly introduced them one by one, and the father and daughter of the Zhu family saw the political commissar of the independent column, the 'Silver Phoenix' of the famous Zhen Xun County, and the 'Sister Sifeng' turned out to be a dignified and virtuous girl, and when they were graceful, they admired it in their hearts, and hurriedly stood up and hugged their fists to salute.
Lin Zhifeng and Ning Chenlong also hurriedly stood up and bowed their fists, it is really so-called, heroes see each other, sympathize with each other, and in a few words of greeting, they are like old friends for many years.
Zhu Ke blinked and kept looking at Lin Zhifeng, she had been shocked by the other party's demeanor and generosity, and couldn't help but praise; "Sister, you are the 'Silver Phoenix' of the New Fourth Army that is well-known in Yuxi County, and the people support and praise the 'Sister Sifeng', looking at your age and not much older than your sister, it's really amazing!"
Lin Zhifeng smiled and replied generously; "Sister Cardamom Miaoling, in the prime of life, the rivers and lakes have been known as 'Thousand Hands and Hundred Spirits', or it won't be long before your name will surpass that of your sister."
After Zhu Ke heard this, he was like drinking honey, his heart was sweet, and he stayed on the side and smirked.
Lin Zhifeng looked at Zhu Ran, this girl had a fishtail wavy hair, a white pear-shaped face, a pair of big watery eyes, warm veins, and light emerald green clothes made her as fresh and delicate as a hibiscus out of the water, Lin Zhifeng secretly wondered in her heart; 'Seeing that the girl is quiet and weak, how can she be a heroine on both sides of the mighty Yuma River and on the water? is to let her set up a water military camp, and how to control those heroes who cut through the waves? ......' Although she had doubts in her heart, she still saluted with her fists and said respectfully in her mouth; "Presumably, this sister should be the 'Langli Furong' Zhu Ran, who stirs up the monstrous waves and dares to teach Zhang Shun in the 'Langli Baitiao' in Shuibo Liangshan!"
In fact, most people had already seen the doubts in Lin Zhifeng's eyes, and Zhu Meng hurriedly explained it for her; "Political Commissar Lin, yes, my cousin is the first dragon in the water of the Yuma River and the Fengling River, before the Japanese came, we have to hold a dragon boat race every year on the Yuma River, one of the competitions, winning the dragon ball, is the most exciting, the most exciting, that is a colored ball made of sheepskin sewing, throw it to the water, dozens of competitors compete for it in the water, and finally swim it to the podium a few miles away to wear red and hang the color, the winner is considered the winner, the winner can not only get a rich red reward, And you can occupy the Dragon Ball for a year, and be called the first dragon, if you win the championship for three consecutive years, you can get the Dragon Ball forever, enjoy the laurel honorific title, these contenders are all water drills, waves floating water masters, not only the Yuma River, the masters of hundreds of miles in a radius of Fengling, that is, the masters of the Yangzi River where the Yuma River goes out to meet, have also come to participate......"
Lin Zhifeng's clear eyes, sparkling and muttering; "It is conceivable that the scene must have been unprecedentedly spectacular, the cheers must have resounded on the banks of the river for miles, the competition between the water players must have been exciting and fierce, and the physical exertion of people in the water must be several times greater than on land......"
Zhu Meng continued; "And these water players in the competition, open and secret, will make a variety of martial arts paths, even if you are good at water, martial arts are not good, will fall into the water and lose, my cousin won the dragon ball every year, so that later the contestants have asked my cousin can only attend the arbitration, not allowed to participate, forever enjoy the first dragon honorific title, my cousin's most exquisite is with those competitors in the competition for the dragon ball, suddenly disappeared the dragon ball, everyone Fan Ran looked around, when the dragon ball reappeared on the water, it has been swept away by my cousin a mile or two away, everyone can catch up? Therefore, looking at the banks of the Yangzi River, the Yuma River, the Lingdang, the reeds and Pu water, and no opponents, my cousin can be regarded as a coquettish person who dominates the puddles......"
"Oh," Lin Zhifeng was such a well-behaved person, he immediately changed his tone, performed another etiquette to Zhu Ran, and carefully apologized; "It's all because Lin is blind, my sister is gentle and elegant, I didn't expect that she was a generation of people, she is really unseemly, Lin can't compensate her sister."
These words also aroused Zhu Ran's pride, she blushed and said politely; "Sister is outside," said him, rolling up the sleeve of his right arm, and calling out to his subordinates; "Get my shark teeth!"
Before she finished speaking, two girls and a young man turned out behind her, both girls were eighteen or nineteen years old, one girl was also wearing lake green clothes, with silk at the waist, and the other girl was wearing blue and ink swallow-shaped clothes, with copper plate rivets and wide belts around her waist.
The young man has a long body, his eyes are bright, his appearance is strange and handsome, he is dressed in snow-white clothes, he is open-minded, and his muscles are abrupt and his chest is embroidered with a silver maroon white dragon churning the sea pattern, and he moves with the breath creeping and moving, the young man's indifferent beauty faintly wafts away with murderous energy, he is in white clothes, white pants, and his skin is also very fair, standing in front of everyone is particularly conspicuous, he took off a thing from his waist and respectfully handed it to Zhu Ran.
Zhu Ran took the object, everyone stared carefully, it was a black steel casting, about one foot two inches long, two conjoined pieces of chopsticks, a taper thin hook, with two semi-circular shape of the lining, the black cone of the fine hook swam in a burst of cold, which showed its fine quenching and sharpness, and the others could not see any specialty, Zhu Ran put the fine hook on the forearm of his right hand, the loop was in the shape of a semi-circular arc, the steel sheet was attached to elastic toughness, the caliber was just the right size of her arm, just clamped the arm, Zhu Ran folded the fine hook forward, There is a thin hook in front of the palm for no reason, and the tip of the hook is bent downward, like the claws and teeth of a beast, and the forest is terrifying.
A cold light flashed in Zhu Ran's bright clear waves, and she said to everyone proudly; "The heroes on the Yuma River play in the water to win the dragon ball, but it is a little skill, the child tickles the general, I have not seen the real kung fu, the first master taught me a trick in the water, but also passed on my water god soldier 'shark tooth', I wanted this body of art and this god soldier buried in the rivers and lakes, idle old waterside, but now the invaders are coming, trampling on my doorstep, how can this girl sit idly by? Now this girl has decided to go out of the mountains to participate in the New Fourth Army's anti-Japanese independent column, set up the Yuma River, and the Fengling Dangshui military camp, this divine soldier 'shark tooth' will also be shocked to the world, once it sees the light of day, it will drink blood and eat flesh, and kill the Oriental devils......"
Everyone breathed a long sigh, and everyone was thinking; "Oh, it turns out that this fine hook is called shark tooth, listening to Miss Zhu's solemn tone, this should be a very powerful underwater weapon...... everyone's curious eyes kept looking at the 'shark tooth' fine hook.
