Section 63 The unrepeatable Yifeng

The more he walked to Yifeng, the more interested Zhang Lingfu became in the situation here. It has been a few days since he returned from Hong Kong, and he has seen and heard about the situation in Wanzai, Shanggao, and other places; although because the troops won a battle some time ago and repelled the attack of the Japanese army, because of the prolonged war, the people are very poor, and although many people who have evacuated south from Nanchang and other places can get some relief, people still die of starvation and freeze to death from time to time in this kind of icy and snowy situation. Zhang Lingfu and the others are used to seeing death, not only these ordinary people, but also the brothers under them often fall in pieces when they fight with devils, so they don't have much reaction to these situations except for some feelings. Isn't there a saying that it is better to be a peaceful dog than a troubled world? One sentence has almost described the lives of the people clearly.

But the situation here in Yifeng is different, not to mention the dead homeless people along the way, even no one can see it. On the contrary, in the makeshift thatched huts in the fields, there were columns of smoke rising from time to time, indicating that there were living people. Why is the situation of a small impoverished county better than that of these large counties such as Shanggao and Wanzai? Where have the displaced people gone? Didn't you enter Yifeng in the first place? Zhang Lingfu wanted to ask Shi Lingfu, but Shi Shi and the others kept asking him about his recuperation in the past six months, which made him difficult to mention other things for a while. Fortunately, the situation is stable now, and his appointment has not come down, so he can live here in Yifeng for a while with peace of mind, and he is not in a hurry.

The group gradually recovered from the shock of Zhang Lingfu's lameness, no matter what, this is already a fact in front of them, there is no possibility of change, and they are people who are used to seeing life and death after all, after the initial shock, they also accepted it calmly. Think about it, maybe if they were in Zhang Lingfu's position, I am afraid that it would not be a big deal if something like this happened, after all, the comrades-in-arms next to him have sacrificed their lives for the country and have lost countless numbers, let alone just been injured. Soon, they talked and laughed again, and they talked about the battle in the past six months, although Zhang Lingfu and Lu Xing generally knew a lot in the newspaper, but when they heard the story of the battle of Dacheng, they still couldn't help but have wild thoughts about the stone, and greatly admired the bravery of the soldiers under him.

Entering Yifeng County, Zhang Lingfu and Lu Xing saw a situation they had hardly imagined, under the heavy snowfall, a large number of people wielded brooms, shovels and other objects to sweep the snow on the street, although the snow fell very much, but the stone pavement on the street was clearly visible, that kind of hot scene, it was really the first time they saw it.

"Stone, this is ......" Zhang Lingfu finally couldn't hold back the question in his heart and asked.

Shi Shi said with surprise: "At present, the situation is unclear, there can be a war at any time, and the smooth road is convenient for the scouts to report the news in time, and it is more convenient for the troops to adjust in time, so I ask the people in the city to be responsible for the area in front of the door and keep the main street unblocked, so that they can respond to various situations in time." ”

Lu Xing on the side grinned and said, "Stone, you're too exaggerated, right?" With such a big snowfall, how can the little devil have such leisure and elegance? You think they're all made of iron! Besides, with such a heavy snowfall, the mobility of the devil troops can't be brought into play at all, and without mobility, the little devils dare to go out? ”

Shi also grinned: "Brother Huanran, be prepared, just sweeping the snow can remove the hidden danger, it's better than relying on guessing!" In fact, it takes no effort to distribute the workload among each household. ”

Zhang Lingfu nodded and said: "It's right for the stone to do this, but in this current situation, the more the end of the year, the more green and yellow the families will become, where are the people willing to do this kind of work in vain?" Also, all the way I went, I didn't see homeless people and people sleeping on the streets, where did these people go? Zhang Lingfu was obviously also attracted by the special situation of Yifeng, and finally couldn't help but ask with doubts in his heart.

Shi pondered for a moment and said, "Brother Zhang, Brother Huanran, this matter is a long story, go back to the house and drink a cup of hot water first, and then I'll talk slowly!" I still have a lot of things I don't understand, and I want to ask you about them. ”

Zhang Lingfu nodded, and said with emotion: "I haven't seen you for a day, like every three autumns, stones, I haven't seen you for more than half a year, your changes are too amazing." Honestly, do you already remember what happened before? Otherwise, how could you be so sophisticated in handling the affairs here in Yifeng? ”

Shi couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Brother Zhang, this is all the credit of the brothers in the group, I have made a lot of jokes during this time, thanks to the help of these brothers, otherwise, I really don't know what to do." ”

Chatting about these things, they also unknowingly entered the county government, and they didn't care much about these dilapidated houses. Officers from the army are different from those who come out of big families, they are used to fighting tough battles, they are used to seeing life and death, and they often look down on these things outside their bodies, family affection, friendship These things are what they value the most, and now they can meet again after half a year, that kind of joy is really impossible to express in words.

Wang Qianqian obviously already knew about Zhang Lingfu and their arrival, if it was someone else, maybe the stone would have to be invited outside, but Zhang Lingfu and Lu Xing and others had a really cordial relationship with him, Wang Qianqian simply prepared the dishes and got busy cooking by herself.

At this meal, Shi also called all the officers above the battalion level of the independent regiment in Yifeng, and also made an exception to open a jar of old wine collected from the landlord's house, smelling the aroma of wine and vegetables all over the house, and everyone also laughed and said that they were stained with the light of Chief Zhang and Chief Lu, otherwise, with the stinginess of the regiment commander, this jar of wine does not know which year it can be drunk.

During the banquet, Zhang Lingfu was naturally indispensable to pay attention to the changes here in Yifeng, and the stones did not hide it, and talked about their series of actions in Yifeng one by one. This time, it naturally made Zhang Lingfu and Lu Xing sigh greatly, they can kill decisively like a stone, raise a butcher's knife and almost kill a county official and rich businessman, they are really the first time to meet, dozens or hundreds of important people in the local area, the stone will be killed with a word, without even the slightest hesitation, this is not a matter of courage, this is something that only a madman can do. Stone, this kid is not afraid of the people above asking him for trouble?

But after thinking about it, they play with devils all day long with their heads, maybe when they will "sacrifice their lives for the country", and they are not even afraid of death, what is this trouble? It's just that in their minds, they still maintain respect for these things, and another point is that they are afraid that such a move will have a bad impact on themselves.

However, the stone man does not have such burdens and concerns, his mind is pure and abnormal, and what he wants to do is only to fight and kill devils, as for other things, he does not understand and does not want to think about it. It is precisely because of this purity that he has no distractions, and any difficulties and enemies that stand in his way are swept away by him.

Listening to the series of reforms carried out by the stone in Yifeng, and then recalling what they had seen and heard along the way, they couldn't help but fall silent. The original intention of learning how to make stones also disappeared without a trace in vain. How do they learn? In the 10,000-year killing ring, engage in fighting local tyrants and divide the land? Where the military headquarters is located, what is needed most is stability, and if you dare to mess around like this, I am afraid that they will be the first to fall into the frieze. And without this as a foundation, then they can't do anything else.

If there is no land, there will naturally be no homeless people. If the relief alone is enough, even the gold and silver mountains will be empty, not to mention that they are already short of food and grass. If you can't arrange for the homeless, you have no prestige in the local area, who wants to obey your command? The idea of expanding farming and finding ways to improve the food of the brothers is even more improbable.

Zhang Lingfu has returned from recuperation, and he has not been appointed to his position for the time being, but judging from the fact that he is deeply valued by the military, there is no need to worry about this aspect at all. Lu Xing's 153rd Regiment is now almost reorganized, and the shortage of soldiers and supplies are directly transferred by the military department, and there are not many things he needs to worry about. Although they were all envious of the development of the Stone and the Independent Regiment, they were not so eager to make a contribution, so after considering the possibility that they had not copied the model here at all, they gave up such an idea and only cared about eating and drinking. The soldiers of the Independent Regiment have been forbidden to drink, and the people are also very greedy, it is rare to have such an opportunity, and everyone also keeps persuading several commanders to drink, and the room is extremely lively for a while.

Because Lu Xing served as the commander of the 153rd Regiment, he had a lot of things to deal with, and he couldn't stay for a long time, so he could only return to Wanzai on the third day. In the following days, Zhang Lingfu, who had nothing to do, stayed here in Yifeng, on the one hand, because of his extremely close relationship with the stone, and on the other hand, because of the stone's retention. At this time, Li Tianxia had been promoted to the commander of the 51st Division, and he was in power, and it was the time to be in high spirits. And Zhang Lingfu was lame, and missed a series of important battles that followed, and he must be much behind in terms of military exploits, and now the appointment has not come down, although Li Tianxia does not have the ability to do anything to him, but cynicism is inevitable. Instead of going back to get angry, it is better to stay in Yifeng and settle quietly.

Hearing that the stone was so thorough and prescient to explain the situation there clearly, Zhang Lingfu was surprised at the same time, but also nodded helplessly, once injured, he fell to the point where he is now, it really made him sigh, fortunately, there are still stones, and the independent regiment has nothing to do with the 51st Division, which is really good here.
