Three days passed, and Akhalgul was still nowhere to be found, looking for places where she could hide, but she seemed to have suddenly evaporated, and there was not even a trace of smell left.

Uncle Temur was so anxious that he could no longer care about any discipline or indiscipline, and he led the camel alone and had to go deep into the desert to find it. For the sake of safety, Luo Zhengxiong asked the scout Xiao Lin to take three people to follow Uncle Temur, and repeatedly demanded that he must not go too far, and must go and come back on the same day.

Fortunately, the desert was unusually calm for three days, and the worried man in black did not appear.

According to Zhang Shuangyang, Akhalgul slipped away an hour after she finished her shift, when she fell asleep, the fat person was sleepy a lot, and she wanted to persevere, but it didn't take long to hold on, so she squinted. At that time, a young soldier in charge of monitoring was a young soldier, he said that Ahargul was yelling for a stomachache and wanted to relieve himself, he followed a few steps, and was scolded back by Akhal Guli, and when he realized that something was wrong, there was no one on Shaliangzi's side.

"Why don't you wake up Zhang Shuangyang?" Luo Zhengxiong is really angry and wants to go crazy, a group of soldiers can't look down on an Akhal gul, if this matter spreads, can the special second regiment still be called the special second regiment?

"I called, but Officer Wu said that Zhang Shuangyang had just fallen asleep, don't disturb her." Officer Wu is the talented Wu Yipeng, and the younger fighters call him that.

This is indeed the case, when Ahargul covered his stomach and went to Shaliangzi, the scolded little soldier ran back, wanting to wake up Zhang Shuangyang and let her follow, but who knew that Xiucai Wu Yipeng simply blocked the little soldier back, and said that he was responsible. The little soldier naturally did not dare to go to Shaliangzi, and it was to be criticized for peeking at the female soldier to relieve him, and the heavier one might be sent back.

Wu Yipeng flatly denied this, and he resolutely refused to admit that he had met the little soldier at that time. "How is this possible, how is this possible?"

Late that night, Wu Yipeng was woken up, and followed Zhang Xiaotian into Luo Zhengxiong's nest in sleepy eyes. In a trance, he felt that it was not Luo Zhengxiong who was sitting on the bunk, and was about to ask Zhang Xiaotianshen what he was doing in the middle of the night, when suddenly he woke up, completely awakened.

Because he saw a man, a man who could decide whether he lived or died.

"You may be seated." In the dim nest, it was the voice of division commander Liu Zhenhai.

Wu Yipeng shook a few times, he never expected that the division commander Liu Zhenhai would come to the camp quietly, why didn't he hear any letter about such a big thing? In a panic, Wu Yipeng glanced at the nest, except for Liu Zhenhai, who did not have any expression, he didn't see anyone else, and Zhang Xiaotian also quietly retreated.

Wu Yipeng forcibly suppressed the panic in his heart and reluctantly bowed his body, he really didn't have the courage to sit down in front of Liu Zhenhai.

"Sit down, long time no see, we should talk seriously." Liu Zhenhai's tone was extremely gentle, and he couldn't hear what emotions he was carrying at all. Wu Yipeng's heart was a little more steady, maybe things were not as bad as he thought.

As soon as he spoke, the little luck in Wu Yipeng's heart was all extinguished.

"Tell me, is she trying to pull you over?" Liu Zhenhai got straight to the point, and did not give Wu Yipeng the slightest room to maneuver. Wu Yipeng's heart darkened, and he felt that the whole world was dark.

Letting Wu Yipeng go to the Special Second Regiment is one of Liu Zhenhai's several choices that he made with difficulty, it can be said that this choice has a bit of a taste of making up for the dead, and for Wu Yipeng, it has a sense of rebirth. Wu Yipeng is a talented person, can speak well, has a high level of education, and is a rare talent in the division headquarters; today, when more than half of the corps is illiterate and semi-illiterate, and the cultural level of the troops is in great need of being raised, it should be said that discovering and cultivating such seedlings is an urgent task for the whole corps. It's a pity that Liu Zhenhai is dazzled. In this regard, he made many reviews at the division headquarters meeting, and under heavy pressure, he did not send Wu Yipeng back to the regiment headquarters. This gave some cadres the illusion that Wu Yipeng was his Liu Zhenhai's celebrity, and no one could move it. But Liu Zhenhai was disappointed with expectations for Wu Yipeng, and he even prayed for this young man, hoping that he could get rid of his arrogance and impetuousness, be an open-minded man, and at the same time be able to thoroughly reflect on himself, not to be arrogant about his achievements, and to think that the revolution was successful and should be enjoyed. Frankly speaking, where did you Wu Yipeng get his work? Is it great to be literate? If you are educated but spineless, and without the iron-blooded fighting spirit of a soldier, you are still a bad bag! Liu Zhenhai doesn't like to teach people, and he doesn't like to explain everything thoroughly, it's meaningless to say it thoroughly, and a smart person like Wu Yipeng needs to explain it thoroughly? He should know where the future lies and what the road should take. But the reality disappointed Liu Zhenhai again and again, except for the little advantage shown in publicity, the rest could not be mentioned on the table at all, and it was annoying to mention it. Especially Wu Yipeng has been arguing for officials many times, and if he is not an official, he is arguing about changing jobs, which simply makes Liu Zhenhai blush! In the first place, why did you fall in love with him in the first place?

To form a special second regiment, Liu Zhenhai was the first to propose to let Wu Yipeng go, but political commissar Tong Tieshan resolutely opposed: "Let him go, this is a special second regiment, not a visiting group!" "Lao Tong, don't look at people like this, Xiucai is a little wrong, if there is a problem, you have to let the family change it, give him this opportunity, let him hone it, maybe ......" "There are few opportunities for him, which time did he cherish it?" The two fought back and forth, and in the end, it was the division commander who had the final say. However, Tong Tieshan put his words in the clear: "I can make it clear, if he causes any trouble, I will not bear this responsibility." ”

"Okay, I'll take it." At the meeting, Liu Zhenhai patted Wu Yipeng's chest, he was very confident at the time, but now it seems that he was too confident too early, and even stupid with confidence.

"Say, since you have done it, you have the courage to admit it." Liu Zhenhai continued not to be annoyed or angry, and at this time, he still maintained such good patience, which shows that the word "Xiucai" has a lot of weight in his heart.

Liu Zhenhai didn't go to school for a day, and all of his culture was learned from others while fighting, and some of them were learned from Kuomintang prisoners. In his eyes, cultural talents are the most respectable. Back then, because he secretly detained a deputy of a Kuomintang regiment and made himself a war teacher, he almost made the army commander wipe his brigade commander's hat in anger.

After struggling for a long time, Wu Yipeng, who was full of contradictions, finally knew that this matter could not be relied upon, so he had to hang his head, with three points of repentance and seven points of fear, and gave the matter to Liu Zhenhai through 1510.

Wu Yipeng knows that the most terrible time is when Liu Zhenhai is not angry, if you force him to get angry, it is likely that he will pick up the gun violently and smash your head with one shot.

At this point, he's a smart man.

Ahargul is really a "** elf", codenamed "Black Chicken", which she made very clear to Wu Yipeng. Wu Yipeng recalled the scene of that day. "I'll tell you my identity for only one purpose, which is to make you obedient and do what I say." Akhalgul said.

"You are not afraid that I will report to the regiment headquarters immediately, you must know that the word 'elf' is the mortal enemy of our regiment."

"I've given you all my body, and I'm afraid I won't be able to stop your mouth?" Akhalgul suddenly put away the smile on his face and became more hideous than the devil, "Besides, it's not that I'm afraid of you now, but when you are afraid of me, don't forget that I'm a Uyghur girl, dare to move a Uyghur girl, you are not small." As he spoke, Ahargul took out a knife, and the knife was bright, and the frightened Wu Yipeng clearly saw that Ahalguli stretched out his soft tongue and licked it a few times on the blade. Poof", a stream of blood sprayed on his pale face.

"Listen, you have to find out all the intentions of the Special Second Regiment and the Corps before the Red Sea is finished, how long they will stay in Xinjiang, and will they really stay on our territory as rumored? There is also all the information of Honghaizi, you want a lot of it to hand over to me, if there is a slight mistake, Sun Wangzi will be your end! ”

"This ...... The information is very strictly guarded, how can you let me get it? ”

"That's your business, if necessary, you can learn from the special group of warriors and send them to the western heavens."

"You-"

"Haha-" Ahalgul burst out with a burst of wild laughter, she didn't expect the man she got her hands on to be such a wreck, she suddenly regretted it a little, at first her target was Zhang Xiaotian, but unfortunately Du Lili's goblin was in heat before her and robbed her of a good dish. But keeping Zhang Xiaotian, she has other uses, thinking of this, she shouted at Wu Yipeng: "Get up, now is not the time for you to lie on the kang and enjoy, you must lure out the camel before the storm stops, I will slaughter this old goat with my own hands!" ”

In the eyes of the "**elves", all those who oppose them are goats, and they are the wolves in the desert.

Wolves eat sheep, rightly so.

But the old goat is really cunning, and he actually changed his way to prevent her from eating.

Wu Yipeng said that during the black storm, he sneaked back to the camp, and Ahargul told him that as long as he lured out the camel of the fifth master, he was not afraid that he would not take the bait, but unfortunately he spent two days in the cave under the red willow bush outside the camp, but he did not find a chance. Of course, he didn't know that in the black storm, the fifth master was not in the camp, and according to Luo Zhengxiong's instructions, he went somewhere again, secretly waiting for another person to appear.

The scene that Zhang Xiaotian and Du Lili saw was that Ahargul failed to slaughter the camel Lao Wu as planned and was angry at him.

"It's time to take the compass out, right?" After listening to his words, Liu Zhenhai did not fire and lit a flue.

"Compass?" It was Wu Yipeng's turn to be surprised again.

He even knew about it! It can be seen that from the beginning, Luo Zhengxiong didn't believe him. Wu Yipeng, who thought he was very smart, believed that the rumors in the corps about Luo Zhengxiong's god were not faked by people, and he really knew too little about Luo Zhengxiong.

The compass was indeed taken by Wu Yipeng, when he was in the division headquarters, he heard that the guide Camel Fifth Master had a treasure, with this treasure, even if there is a lot of wind and waves in the desert, you can't get lost. This compass is not only a life-saving tool for the fifth master, but also the most precious token of his life.

The compass was actually the little woman's, on the dry donkey skin beach, the little woman took it as if she was her life, and shyly stuffed it into the arms of the fifth camel master, and then said softly: "In the future, my life and death will be up to you." ”

thought that if he stole this treasure, he would be able to sit back and relax, even if the whole group died, he Wu Yipeng would be able to go back alive, but he didn't think that a pair of eyes were staring at him, it was that morning that changed his fate. Akha Gul said the same thing on the earthen kang: "It's time to take out the compass, right?" ”

"You gave it to her?" Liu Zhenhai was a little surprised this time.

Wu Yipeng lowered his head, his face darker than dead ashes. How could he not give, that he might get out of that hole alive?

This night, this pair of comrades-in-arms, who were very close to the officers and soldiers, talked about dawn in the nest of the ground. At dawn, when Wu Yipeng walked out of the nest, the soldiers found that his eyes were red, but his face was very strange, so that people could not guess what the division commander had talked to him.

On the same night, a pocket battle was quietly starting in Qiduo'erliang, far away from the camp.

This is thanks to the Fifth Master of the Camel, while discovering the secret of the man in black, the Fifth Master of the Camel also smelled the breath of Deng Jiapu. To say that the cave where Deng Jiapu was hiding was found a day earlier than the cave of the man in black, but the fifth master of the camel didn't realize that these were two different things at the time, and thought that the two caves were both men in black, and later after being reminded by Luo Zhengxiong, he suddenly woke up: Yes, I'm confused, the cave in front is small and broken, and there is nothing in it except a pool of blood, so it's not a man in black when I think about it. In this way, the fifth master of the camel led people to look for it again, and found another hole more than thirty miles away from the karez. This hole is not big, you can't guess that it is a mouth hole from the outside, there are such black holes everywhere in the desert, no one cares when they see it, but the fifth master of the camel cares. He saw the clue from the abnormality of the sand thorn, the sand thorn that grew in that hole was different from other places, what was the difference, the fifth master couldn't say, but he could see it at a glance.

"That's it." He said to the soldiers who accompanied him.

The two soldiers stared at him suspiciously, thinking that it was impossible, because the place pointed by the fifth master of the camel was too ordinary, a small black hole, and the entrance of the cave was messy with sand thorns.

"Don't believe me?" The Fifth Master looked at the two soldiers slyly, smiled meaningfully, and pulled out the sand thorn that looked like it was about to die. At this time, a miracle occurred, the sand thorn did not grow, but was planted by people, and with the sound of the sand, a hole about a meter in diameter appeared, which was completely different from the hole just saw. The two soldiers were surprised, and saw that the fifth camel had shrunk up, and he had burrowed into the hole like a dog. The three of them climbed about five meters inside, and suddenly the front of them opened up, and a cave the size of half a room appeared in front of them.

Only then did the two soldiers have to admire convincingly.

"Don't boast yet, keep your ears and eyes on it, this kind of cave is not fun." The fifth master of the camel reminded. The two soldiers immediately tightened their hearts and cautiously followed behind the fifth master. This cave is very similar to the cave where people lived in the old days, and after the torch was lit, the three of them found that there were many traces of carving on the cave wall, which is very similar to the murals hanging in people's homes today. Judging from the lines drawn, most of them are birds and animals for people to worship. The fifth master didn't dare to be distracted, and immediately searched in the cave. However, the results of the search were disappointing, except for a few cigarette butts and some scattered naan dregs, and the three of them found nothing. Based on his intuition, the fifth master of the camel concluded that there was a hidden person here, and there was more than one day, maybe the dark storm that was dark, this person spent it in this cave. But what does he live on for such a long time? Suddenly, the fifth master of the camel stared at the small mound under the cave wall in front of him. "Dig!" He said.

After the two fighters dug up the small mound of dirt, the truth appeared, it was a pile of pigeon feathers!

There used to be pigeons in this hole, and it was on these pigeons that the man survived!

He's a guy with a way! The fifth master of the camel said with admiration. Thinking of the characteristics of Deng Jiapu described to him by Luo Zhengxiong, the fifth master of the camel concluded that what was once hidden in this cave must be Deng Jiapu. To be able to find this hole at a glance in such a mysterious desert shows how deep this person's geological attainments are. According to the judgment of the fifth master, this cave was once a cave where a family lived, and this family lived by hunting. The paintings on the walls of the cave are the prey he has hit, and they are the same as the paintings. From this point of view, Honghaizi is not a simple place, maybe in the early days, it was still a very developed village. Thinking of this, the fifth master suddenly understood why Liu Zhenhai set the first stop of the Special Second Regiment in Honghaizi, it was really wise, the People's Liberation Army is the People's Liberation Army, and it is superior in everything. There is definitely a treasure under this Red Sea, maybe if you dig in this hole, you can dig up some rare treasures.

The fifth master of the camel retracted his reverie, took the two warriors away, and planted the sand thorn as before, so that there was nothing to see at the mouth of the cave, and it looked like the commonplace desert. The fifth master of the camel firmly remembered this place in his heart.

Judging by the direction of the two acupuncture points in the front and back, the direction of Deng Jiapu's escape must be Qiduo Erliang. He must have been thirsty and wanted to taste the holy water. Or the seven stacks of beams are the places where they have discussed and met in advance.

"I told you to touch!" The fifth master of the camel hated, and took a few soldiers to Qidu'er Liang that night.

The old shepherd is indeed a hospitable person, and judging from his intimacy with the fifth camel master, the two are by no means a one-day or two-day friendship. Later, the fifth master of the camel told Luo Zhengxiong that he came to Xinjiang with the old shepherd, and he became a camel guest, but the old shepherd shepherded sheep for the family of Qiduoer Liang, and later, he became the son-in-law of that family. Over the years, the camel Lao Wu who was running for his life in the desert occasionally missed his hometown or had something else in his heart, so he would stop at Qiduo'er Liang, and the two of them chatted, or looked at the children of the old shepherd, and their hearts returned to the place. In this life, what is difficult to break is the root, and what is difficult is the love between children. The fifth camel has no hope, since the delicate little woman has died, leaving him, his heart has gone somewhere. However, when he saw the sweetness and sweetness of the old shepherd's family, his heart was wet, a little sour, a little sweet, and a little lost. A while ago, the old shepherd smiled and said: "Old five, it's not a way to live like this, if you don't come to Qiduer, settle down, find a foil, at least the kang head has to have a chatter." ”

"I don't look forward to it, I can't look forward to it, God gave it to me, it's just this way." There was an unconcealable sadness in the words of the fifth master.

"Widow of the horse, I see it's okay, why don't I ask you?"

"Forget it, whoever has whose day disturbs others, I can't afford it."

I didn't mention this again, but occasionally, the fifth master of the camel also thought, I heard that the widow Ma is good, her heart is good, her hands and feet are neat, but her life is not good, and the widow who guarded ten years ago pulled a man and a woman, bitter. Especially on this trip, as a guide, when he saw these officers and soldiers, men and women, in pairs, talking and laughing, he thought that the horse widow was there, and he didn't care much about which of them was with whom.

Hehe, things in the world, weird, weird. The fifth master of the camel actually competed with Zhang Xiaotian and them.

After listening to the words of the fifth camel master, the old shepherd looked vigilant: "You mean, that person will come to Qidu'er Liang?" ”

"I think he will."

"You mean, he has what the PLA wants?"

"What the People's Liberation Army wants, it was originally exchanged for people's lives, you haven't seen those surveyors, but it's bitter."

"Hehe, why don't you just carry an instrument and play around in the desert, it's much easier than fighting." The old shepherd said with a smile.

"Nonsense! If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense. Fun, you go play and show me, people do big things. ”

"Isn't it just a joke, look at you, what kind of anger do you want, say, how do you want me to help you?"

"Guard that well, this man will smell water with a sharp nose."

"Don't worry, my old shepherd will make him a pocket and wait for him to drill!"

Soon, the village was full of people, and the famous holy well in the desert was even set up in a dragon gate array, waiting for Deng Jiapu to come in.

But after waiting for two days and two nights, there was no movement. "Does he smell it?" The old shepherd asked uncertainly.

"Probably not, this matter is done secretly, as far as Commander Luo knows, and when we came, we came in around the bend, and we won't leave any traces." The fifth master of the camel was also confused.

"But he is in the dark, and you are in the light." The old shepherd said again.

"I don't believe that he can drink pigeon's blood all the time."

People can't drink more pigeon blood, no blood, you can't drink any blood, you can do it in an emergency, and drinking it for a long time will kill people.

And then just wait. Another two days have passed, and the children of the old shepherd have become impatient, feeling that the fifth master of the camel is making fun of them, in this vast desert, a person has no water and no food, and can live for more than two months, and they have never heard of it. Moreover, people may not come to Qiduanerliang, but they are geological experts, and they are very clear where there is water in this area. Or, can you choose him to be a special group?
