Chapter 5: Preparing for a rainy day
"Brother Zhao, this... It's not good," Liu Shijie looked worried and met Zhao Wenli's gaze.
"Don't worry, am I the kind of person who doesn't care about the general situation?" Zhao Wenli shrugged indifferently, "We're all people in the same boat now, how can I pull everyone's back?" Let's go, the soldiers are going to fight, those of us who are not soldiers should first help them take care of the backyard, do a good job in logistics, and be a good family between the army and the people, but isn't it our duty to be ordinary people? ”
"Oh," Liu Shijie sighed easily, and slowly followed behind Zhao Wenli with a team of donkey friends, and walked towards the woods on the side.
Chen Dayong hesitated for a while, it seemed that it took a little thought to make up his mind, and he also took the people of the smuggling team to approach Zhao Wenli, and said cautiously: "Brother Zhao, we, we are also ordinary people, we should also do our part, you can also send us some work, we will all listen to you." ”
"Oh, okay," Zhao Wenli smiled kindly, "There is a lot of strength in numbers, everyone can do their best, let's find a way to let the big guy settle down temporarily." ”
After speaking, he took the lead in taking off his shirt from his back, and called Liu Shijie and others, "You all come here, put everything together, and see how many things can be used." ”
Everyone took off their luggage as they said and began to count their things one by one.
"Oops, my tablet is dead, honey, what to do?" Zhu Linlin looked at Hu Jiaqing in surprise, but who knew that it attracted countless strange eyes.
"If there is no electricity, there will be no electricity, but I am afraid that there will be no electricity in the future." Zhao Jiaqing said angrily, "I didn't know that I shouldn't have brought so many electronic products here, and it would be good to bring more food or books, this time it's good, it's become a pile of scrap metal." ”
"How did I know we would cross over, besides, e-books aren't books?" Zhu Linlin didn't have a sense of frustration because of the crossing, and continued to say heartlessly.
"It's all there, unload your gear and set off light."
Xu Yongquan shouted loudly, and Zhu Linlin couldn't help but stick out her tongue, and made a grimace at Zhou Wenqian and said, "Hey, Sister Zhou, don't be a nymphomaniac, people don't notice you at all." ”
"How can I have," Zhou Wenqian's face turned red, but her eyes were blank and she didn't know where to look.
The soldiers of the airborne team quickly unloaded their equipment, piled them up in a pile, and began to set off in formation. But after a while, the characters of the first squad and the second squad had all set off, and the tall Jon was about to set off, when Xu Yongquan suddenly stopped him and said, "Jon, you stay." ”
"Captain, me?" Jon looked at Xu Yongquan in bewilderment.
Xu Yongquan ignored Jon's suspicions, gritted his teeth and walked towards Zhao Wenli, who was packing their respective luggage, and said hesitantly: "Brother Zhao, you are right, although we have different views, but now we are all in the same boat. We're about to go, I'll leave a team to take care of everyone, our materials are here, you can gather them together. Take care of the rest of these people, I'll leave it to you. ”
After speaking, without waiting for Zhao Wenli to reply, he had already quickly followed the team.
"Captain," Jon shouted anxiously.
"Obey the order and follow Mr. Zhao's arrangement." Xu Yongquan shouted undoubtedly.
"Yes," Jon replied aggrievedly, and walked towards Zhao Wenli unwillingly, "Mr. Zhao, what do we want to do?" ”
Zhao Wenli was busy putting away the items in his hand, and said lightly: "In this case, then I'm not welcome, Captain Qiao, you have to send four teams of scouts, two in each direction, to reconnoiter the situation within a radius of ten kilometers, and the rest of the people will help and pack up things together." ”
"Well," Jon replied in surprise, "Mr. Zhao is so familiar with marching. ”
"Hmph, look down on people, Brother Zhao used to be a special soldier." Zhu Linlin glanced at Jon dissatisfied.
"Oh, oh, I was rude." Jon immediately became awe-struck, "Since they are all soldiers, they are big brothers, if big brother has any orders, just let us do it, oh, I'll send them out to reconnoitre." ”
After speaking, he hurriedly went to assign scouts, and after a while, he led the remaining twenty or so soldiers over in a hurry: "Brother Zhao, I will all listen to your dispatch." ”
"Well, okay, let's get your stuff out." Zhao Wenli unceremoniously ordered, "Captain Qiao, you personally take someone to count our weapons, and the rest of the people, clean up our living materials with me." ”
But after looking at it again, it can't help but make people smile bitterly, except for a few parachutes and individual rations, that is, the weapon is a large object.
"Well, help put the parachute away." Zhao Wenli smiled bitterly and shook his head. "Captain Qiao, send two people to stay, Zhu Linlin, also have your business?"
"What's the matter, is there anything about me?" Zhu Linlin said excitedly.
"You bring two people and take care of all the items in the accounts."
"Ah, let me do this?" Zhu Linlin exclaimed in disappointment.
"Hehe, let Hu Jiaqing accompany you. See what works. You can't show favoritism, at this stage, what we are implementing is **Oh, everything must belong to the public, and no one can hide it. ”
"Is it really everything?" Hu Jiaqing asked nervously.
"Of course, can't everyone be in the same boat at this time, can there be any selfishness?" Looking at Hu Jiaqing's distressed look, he patted him on the shoulder angrily, "Don't worry, no one dares to ask for confiscation of your girlfriend, it's still yours, even if she is confiscated, I'm afraid no one will dare to rob you." ”
"Who told you that?" Hu Jiaqing blushed and said, "Our tablet, we want to keep it for ourselves as a souvenir, can't we?" ”
"It has to be a public thing, but it can be used by you." Zhao Wenli said resolutely, "Now you have to protect yourself, I see that their individual radio stations all have solar generators, and when the time comes, we will see if we can rescue some useful things from the computer, and I don't know what you put in it, no matter how many valuable things there are, but don't break them." ”
"Don't worry, Brother Zhao, we will definitely protect it and will not break it." Hu Jiaqing immediately relaxed.
"So nervous, your little tablet, doesn't there be a commemorative photo similar to Brother Guanxi in it?" Wu Yue looked at Hu Jiaqing and Zhu Linlin heroically.
"Wu Yue, I didn't expect you to look so honest, and you also have a bad stomach, how can anyone say this." Zhu Linlin's face was red to the root of her ears again, and she nervously hugged the tablet even tighter.
"Okay, let's stop talking, let's hurry up and go separately." Zhao Wenli waved his hand disappreciatively, and Hu Jiaqing pulled Zhu Linlin to whisper as if he had been amnestied.
"Captain Qiao, I can only let you work hard, because the sapper shovel is the only one you have." Zhao Wenli looked embarrassed.
"Brother Zhao, don't be polite, you just give orders." Jon said cheerfully, patting his chest.
"Alright, then please bring some people to chop some wood down."
"What are you chopping wood for?" Jon looked suspicious.
"I guess it's already autumn, it's cold at night, chop some wood, I will use these parachute bags, set up a few tents, so that everyone doesn't get cold at night." Zhao Wenli patiently explained.
"Okay, I'll go." Jon patted his head, "Look at my pig brain, why don't you want to do anything." ”
"Chen Dayong, you should be ripe in the mountains, you lead a few ladies to see if there are any wild vegetables and fruits, and pick some as food."
"Don't we still have so many rations?" Chen Dayong asked puzzledly, "Why do you want to eat wild vegetables?" ”
"Hehe, rations, I'm afraid they will be gone soon." Zhao Wenli said with a wry smile, "There is that Captain Xu, who is not self-interested and specializes in benefiting others, I am afraid that when those Indians come, there will be hundreds of more prisoners, and we will not have enough food at that time." ”
"Why?" Chen Dayong immediately jumped up excitedly, "We don't have anything to eat ourselves, why should we let them eat." ”
"This is discipline, since you have promised to listen to me, you must do what I tell you." Zhao Wenli glared at him angrily, "If you don't want to break away from everyone, just do it quickly." ”
"Okay, I'll go." Chen Dayong cried with a sad face, and was about to leave with his smuggling team. "Xiaojing, let's go."
Wang Xiaojing looked at Chen Weidong who was following Jon in a daze, and opened her mouth to shout, but Chen Weidong didn't seem to notice her existence at all, and whistled all the way, without even looking back. Wang Xiaojing turned her head bitterly and said coldly: "Okay, I know, I'll come." ”
"What, without my job, Brother Zhao?" Liu Shijie squeezed his eyes and came up, "Won't you take care of me so much?" ”
"Don't worry, you're indispensable. The others came with me, and they all went to look for food. Zhao Wenli glared at him fiercely.
It's a little sad to think about it, for the sake of our so-called great international spirit, we would rather go hungry and support countless poor brothers, but do we exchange our sincerity for brothers? Some are just betrayals and hidden arrows to hurt people. The people in the previous life didn't understand, Xu Yongquan wouldn't understand. But he knew that this would not work, but he couldn't stop Xu Yongquan's actions, because the weak traversers would definitely not be able to be lost in the jungle of the North American continent in the internal fighting.
"This should be a small tributary of the Mississippi River, and we're in luck, guys." Zhao Wenli shook his head and forced himself to forget about those unhappy things.
"What's the matter, Brother Zhao."
"No, we big guys work together to stop the river and direct the water to the side, and then we just have to catch fish here, and we will probably have a good fish soup tonight." I hope that in this era when there are no pesticides and fertilizers, God will not treat us kindly, guys, let's do it. Hehe,,I didn't expect that my old Zhao would one day do something like this. ”
Sure enough, after knocking down a few small trees and blocking the flow of the upper stream, the primitive riverbed was revealed, as well as the lively and unscrupulous fish, and countless small ones, struggling helplessly in the shallow water stalls, and finally surfacing the snail river mussel, greedily sucking the river water that was gradually receding.
"Wow, we've made a lot of money this time, I'm afraid that there will be thousands of catties of fish, we can't eat them all, we dried them and made dried fish, and then sold them to those Indians." Liu Shijie danced happily.
"It's all at this time, and you still have the mentality of a small business owner, and you can't help but want to order something that isn't money."
"What's wrong with the money? This is the result of our labor, and it has come to the forefront, and I am afraid of what to say. Liu Shijie-for-tat.
"It doesn't matter if you talk to me like that, but, captain, hehe." Zhao Wenli shook his head and sighed with a wry smile.
"Why, would he still want to give these fish to those class brothers?" Liu Shijie was a little angry, "Although I also sympathize with the suffering of the Indians, our suffering can't be borne by us, and there is no heavenly reason." ”
"Let's take a look," Zhao Wenli shook his head helplessly and sighed while stringing up the fish with a straw rope, "We don't know what the future holds, we can only take precautions and try to prepare ourselves for more ability to deal with crises." ”
