Ma Chunhua is the deputy secretary of the Party Committee of Chenguang Factory, and concurrently serves as the Minister of Armed Forces, she is the actual supreme leader of the militia regiment, and there is a saying in the militia that Ma Chunhua is Mu Guiying, Chen Bei is Yang Zongbao, generally speaking, Mu Guiying is always in command in the commentary, and Yang Zongbao is the vanguard, and this time is no exception.

No one expected that this time the opponent turned out to be Mu Guiying's father-in-law, Yang Zongbao's father-in-law, Yang Liulang.

The militia of the Hongqi Factory was a heavily equipped unit with anti-tank guns and mortars, but only lightly armed troops were dispatched to carry out this mission.

The militia received an order from the regional armed forces committee to defend the country's grain depot and strictly prevent sabotage by the class enemy, but the order was not very clear, and it did not specify who the enemy was.

The troops went to the national grain depot in the suburbs, lined up the troops, entered the position, piled up the grain packets, set up machine guns, filled the Makqin water-cooled sleeve with coolant, the yellow and clear bullet belt stuck into the receiver, and the machine gunner neatly pulled the handle, and the action was extremely chic.

Chen Bei yawned, walked outside the position, and chatted with a cadre from the Armed Forces Department of the Red Flag Factory.

"This exercise is very exciting, all of them are dispatched."

"Yes, I don't know if there is a subsidy after the exercise, and I don't want more, just give three catties of rice."

"It's hard at home, how many children?"

"Three children, hungry and screaming every day."

The two smoked cigarettes and chatted, like no one else, completely unaware that the city had been turned upside down.

……

The first to be captured was the Beitai Railway Station, which was built by Chen Zikun in imitation of the New York terminus, and it was still strong after many years, and in the face of the overwhelming peasant army, the police of the Railway Public Security Department and the station police station had no idea of resisting at all.

Strictly speaking, there was no conflict at all, Chen Zikun's 100,000 army only had the vanguard to arrive in Beitai, 5,000 young and strong, waving thousands of red flags, that momentum is really not covered, coupled with the passionate revolutionary songs, who dares to use the mantis arm as a car!

Ten tons of grain piled up on the freight yard were swept away, and the hungry people happily carried these large bags onto the tractors, and Chen Zikun also placed a bag of grain printed in Latin, which turned out to be not wheat, but ground flour, probably for export support.

Chen Zikun immediately ordered to bury the pot to make rice, and make new contributions after eating a full meal.

It is said that the grain depot should be taken in one go, but the people are so hungry that after walking such a long way, their eyes have long been weakened, and they have reached the end of the crossbow, and they can no longer use it.

The team came with pots and pans, and began to cook outside the train station, finding a few bricks to set up an iron pot, picking up a few sticks of firewood to boil water, putting flour in it and stirring it to make gnocchi soup.

The railway workers couldn't stand it anymore, so they took the initiative to lend the big iron pot in the canteen, chop the noodles and stuffing, wrap dumplings and steamed steamed buns.

A bowl of hot dumplings was brought to Chen Zikun, and everyone in the command got the dough cake, although the time was in a hurry, and it was a dead dough cake, but it was a genuine white flour.

Everyone cried, because they were excited, because they were moved, because they hadn't eaten white noodles for a long time.

In this way, the young men of the vanguard army were basically half full, but their morale was extremely high, and the big silk pointed to the national grain depot, and countless red flags followed, and the ranks grew even stronger, including many city residents.

The National Grain Depot in Beitai City, the workers' militia have been notified that this is not an exercise! A group of hungry people from Nantailai who had robbed the export grain from the railway station were rushing to the grain depot, and the higher authorities ordered everyone to defend the state property at all costs.

A Volga sedan came down to the state grain depot under the escort of four side three-wheeled motorcycles, and down from the car was Mai Ping, secretary of the prefectural party committee, who looked serious, walked steadily, wore a silver-gray tunic, and shook hands with the militia leaders one by one.

"Comrades have worked hard, the situation is very serious, and the responsibility is on your shoulders."

Immediately, Mai Ping convened an on-site office meeting and said to the grain depot security section and militia commanders in the conference room of the grain depot: "Some peasants in Nantai County and other counties and districts, under the vicious instigation of a handful of people with ulterior motives, came to Beitai to grab grain. ”

The chief of the grain depot security section said: "What should I do if I can't stop it? ”

Mai Ping's fist slammed on the table: "What is the use of the weapons in your hands, fire a warning gun first, shoot if it doesn't work, hit it in the leg, and shoot the backbone personnel if it doesn't work." ”

The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became tense, and some people were gearing up, feeling that the time had come to make meritorious contributions, while others were confused.

Suddenly, Macpin saw the teacups on the table tremble, and then the window glass also hummed, and the sound of footsteps shook the earth outside.

They're coming.

The sound of tens of thousands of people walking in unison and trampling on the ground was earth-shattering, and when you looked out of the window, there was already a sea of red outside, and the red flags that covered the sky and the sun were rolling, which was terrifying.

"Quick, all go down, we must not let them enter the grain depot for half a step!" Mai Ping hurriedly ordered.

The militia commanders hurried downstairs.

Yang Shugen said: "Secretary Mai, I think it's better to inform the province." His voice trembled a little when he spoke, after all, he was a grassroots cadre who had never seen the world.

But Mai Ping has been tested by blood and fire in the twenties, and he has also taken the lead in the charge, he is not afraid of Chen Zikun, and he also has the courage to face opponents stronger than himself.

"Needless to say, this is no longer a contradiction among the people, but a contradiction between the enemy and ourselves, and we must use ** force to defeat them." Mai Ping said quite confidently, in fact, his heart is turning over the river and the sea, he has only been promoted from the commissioner of the administrative department to the secretary of the prefectural party committee for less than three months, and if something happens during this time period, his career will inevitably be affected, so he must suppress it at all costs, even if some people die, it doesn't matter, anyway, it can be concealed afterwards.

On the outer wall of the grain depot, the loudspeakers of the workers' militia kept shouting: "Please stop immediately, don't go any further, this is a national key protection unit." ”

The peasants went on and turned a deaf ear.

The militia commander was extremely impatient, and when he saw that the other side had entered the cordon, he immediately gave the order and fired a warning shot.

More than a dozen rifles fired into the air, and after the gunshots, the whole world fell silent.

The workers' militia lay behind the bunkers, their guns sweating, they didn't know what was happening, and they looked back in confusion from time to time.

Chen Bei was also confused, what the hell is going on?

Suddenly, a piercing electric current scream came, and it was the other party who was adjusting the tweeter.

Immediately after that, a familiar voice sounded: "Comrades, soldiers, I am Chen Zikun." ”

There was a sound of electricity, and everyone stood and listened quietly, the name was familiar and unfamiliar, but it had long been engraved in everyone's hearts.

"Comrades, I was entrusted by Chairman Mao and Chairman Liu to visit you on behalf of the Central Committee."

There was a commotion, and the workers' militia seemed to understand something, Chen Bei was even more excited, turned his head to Ma Chunhua and said, "It's my father who is here!" ”

Ma Chunhua frowned, she became more and more confused, her father-in-law took the peasants and the local committee to do it, what kind of trouble is this.

"Comrades, I came to the countryside of Nantai the day before yesterday and found that the famine was worse than expected, and I was dying of hunger for thousands of miles! The masses are hungry and full of skin and bones, edema and diseases are everywhere, and the central government is responsible for such a situation, we are a socialist country, can we still starve people to death! But I have heard that not only the situation in the countryside is serious, but also in the towns! ”

These words resonated with the workers' militia, yes, they planned to have four taels of food a day, and they could not have enough to eat.

The militiamen's grips on their guns gradually loosened.

Suddenly, the loudspeaker on the grain depot building spoke: "The vast number of members, workers, I am Mai Ping, the first secretary of the Jiangbei Prefectural Party Committee, please listen to me, don't be bewitched by bad people, the state will not ignore us, the relief grain will arrive soon, please go back immediately, wait for the notice from the superiors, and ask the comrades of the workers' militia to stick to their posts and defend state property." ”

Chen Zikun said-for-tat: "Comrade Mai Ping, I would like to ask you, what is the purpose of socialism, is it to let the working people be fed and clothed? Now that the broad masses of the people are hungry to grasp the revolution and promote production, but tens of thousands of tons of grain are piled up in the grain depots, and they would rather rot than give them to the masses to satisfy their hunger, and they want people to go back and wait for notice, where is your conscience? Where is the party spirit? I think you're a bureaucratic master! Now I announce that Mai Ping will be relieved of his post as secretary of the prefectural party committee! ”

Mai Ping was anxious: "Chen Zikun, you don't have the right to do this, I am a cadre appointed by the provincial party committee!" ”

Chen Zikun said: "You only have the provincial party committee in your eyes, where do you put the masses!" ”

The two scolded each other with a loudspeaker, obviously Mai Ping fell behind, Chen Zikun was righteous and strict, generous, and awe-inspiring, and scolded Fang Xuan, Mai Ping was defeated and retreated, and he was poor in words.

Every time Chen Zikun said a word, there was a cheer below, cheering for him.

Finally, Chen Zikun said: "Countless revolutionary martyrs have shed their blood, aren't they just the future generations who want to live a happy life, not starving, and not freezing?" Mai Ping, how different are you from the Kuomintang reactionaries in doing this? Isn't the blood of millions of martyrs shed in vain? ”

Then he shouted: "Long live ***!" Long live the people! ”

The masses shouted slogans and pressed towards the grain depot in an overwhelming formation.

Chen Beida shouted: "Open the door!" ”

The militiamen could not hold back for a long time, so they took up their guns one after another, hugged the peasant comrades-in-arms tightly, joined forces in victory, joined forces in one place, and entered the national grain depot with iron flow.

When the grain depot was lost, Mai Ping's heart was like ashes, and he looked up to the sky and sighed: "Take a wrong step." ”

Yang Shugen said: "Secretary Mai, there is still salvation!" You see. ”

In the distance, hundreds of grass-green Jiefang trucks sped by, filled with heavily armed PLA soldiers.

Reinforcements from the garrison division finally arrived.
