"Qingshan, the order is bigger than the sky, don't take it to heart...... Although I didn't catch up this time, with your ability, it will be a matter of time before you get ahead. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoMy comrades and I firmly believe in this. ”

As soon as he left the Zhaotouzhai station, seeing Zhang Qingshan in a hurry, the squad leader thought that he was in a hurry, and naturally wanted to enlighten him - he could not participate in tomorrow's commendation meeting, and Huang Debao was also very depressed: speaking on behalf of all the recruits, it was not only Zhang Qingshan's personal honor, but also the glory of the whole class.

In fact, Zhang Qingshan was not only not discouraged, but extremely excited, not only because he was still not used to giving speeches in front of everyone, but more importantly, the purpose of the Third Company's rapid march was to go to Guitang Town with the regimental propaganda team and stay there for a period of time. Guitang Town is not only the birthplace of Zhang Qingshan, but also the residence of his great enemy, the widow Tian...... As soon as he thought of being able to find the bully of Widow Tian to take revenge, he hated to give birth to wings and fly over, so he naturally hurried with a brisk pace. But this little bit of caution is not easy to tell others, so Huang Debao mistakenly thinks that he is making trouble.

With Zhang Qingshan, a native of Guitang Town, even the guide is saved, and the third class naturally becomes the pioneer of the whole company.

When it was dark, the team came to a small waterfall, drank spring water, ate dry food, and after a short rest of half an hour, was about to set off. Seeing Huang Debao hand over a torch dipped in tung oil, Zhang Qingshan was stunned: "Squad leader, what do you want the torch for?"

"Illuminate the way!"

Seeing Huang Debao roll his eyes, Zhang Qingshan pursed his lips and was about to speak, when he heard movement behind him, he turned around and saw that the comrades were lighting torches, so he hurriedly ran over and shouted: "Don't light the torches, put ......out the torches quickly."

Ran to the people who lit the torches, snatched the torches from their hands, and stomped on the fire while they were still on the ground.

Huang Debao chased after him and grabbed him, and said angrily: "Zhang Qingshan, what are you doing?"

"Squad leader, I'm kind-hearted, this torch really can't be lit. ”

"Can't do it?"

"Lao Huang, you let him go first. Company commander Zhang Guozhi walked over, glanced at Huang Debao, and asked Zhang Qingshan solemnly: "Xiao Zhang, tell me, why can't this torch be lit?"

The folk customs of Xiangxi are extremely strong, there are many bandits, but the mountains are high and the forests are dense, the government has not only failed to encircle and suppress for many years, but has aggravated the monstrous flames of the bandits, and it is not enough to describe its arrogance with 'boldness': if you pass by his territory without worshipping the wharf, it doesn't matter who you are, how many people and horses come, even if tens of thousands of troops pass by, he has only one person, and he dares to hide in the mountains and shoot you with a black gun -- he will go into the dense forest after he shoots you, not to mention whether you can chase or not, tens of thousands of troops can't delay the trip in order to catch him, right? Over time, a rule of walking at night has been formed: If you dare to pass by with a torch, you must have the consciousness of being regarded as a live target for gun training.

What's more, after the Red Army came, many local tyrants and bullies hid in the mountains and forests with their minions, but the Red Army was busy dealing with the national army and had no time to eliminate them. In this way, you pass by with such a big fanfare, and on the hundred-mile road from Zhaotou Village to Guitang Town, it is difficult not to be coldly shot.

"Tsk!" The company commander smashed his mouth and muttered with a smile: "This arrogant ...... It's really local. ”

Huang Debao exclaimed unconvinced: "If you are afraid of this and that, what kind of Red Army should you be? How can you accomplish the goal of rescuing the toiling masses of the world?"

"Lao Huang, having said that, our target this time is Guitang Town, and we still have to try to avoid unnecessary losses. The company commander pondered for a moment and asked, "Xiao Zhang, do you know the local folk customs, is there any good solution to it?"

"Please comrades, you must remember: white is stone, black earth, and water is reflective. Zhang Qingshan looked up at the crescent moon that had just risen, and said: "Company commander, look at this situation, the moon is not big tonight, if you are in a hurry to travel at night, follow each other closely, it is best that the comrades in the back can grab the corners of the comrades in front, so as not to fall behind and fall into the ravine...... Also, try not to make a noise. ”

After Zhang Guozhi sent someone to pass on the words, he said with a smile: "Xiao Zhang, give you a task: you lead the way in front, and everyone obeys your command...... I'll give you a great credit for bringing everyone to your destination safely and smoothly. ”

"Yes! Zhang Qingshan saluted with great joy. But in the next second, he thought of something, and asked in a dry smile: "Company commander, in fact, most of our bandits here will shoot at the sky when they encounter those who are in a hurry at night, and will only shout after scaring the other party, and if they can't answer, they will start fighting." You see, if someone asks you and it sounds ugly, I ......."

"It's okay, just say whatever you want. The company commander asked curiously, "Xiao Zhang, what do they call us Red Army?"

Zhang Qingshan knew that this was the company commander laughing, and he had to answer seriously: "Some call us red brains (to describe not being afraid of death, and the deeper meaning is not to be messed with), and others call us ...... Red bandits or red haired people, report to the company commander, this is what they screamed, but not me. ”

"It's all right, when the time comes, they will shout, and I will allow you to say that, and it will not be counted as your mistake. ”

"Yes!"

What a good spirit, not a bad spirit!

The crescent moon hangs high, and the mist is hazy.

"Bang!"

After walking more than ten miles over the mountains and mountains, gunshots came from the dense forest halfway up the mountain on the right, and the frightened people lay down under the small hill on the right, ready for battle.

"Aoyama, what's going on?"

"Squad leader, it's the sound of muskets, it should be bandits. ”

Huang Debao frowned, and was about to speak, but he heard someone shouting halfway up the mountain: "The people below listen to Lao Tzu, see that you still understand the rules, and report a name." ”

"We are the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, and we will travel far by your path, so please make it convenient. ”

"Bullshit's convenience, leave the money to buy the road, get out!"

"It's convenient for you to be with others!" Zhang Qingshan frowned, with a bit of anger, and threatened in the local dialect: "Everyone has no grievances in the past and no hatred in the near future, you must know that you are really going to be delayed, but don't blame us for not paying attention to the rules and working hard to kill you." ”

This is the truth: not long after the Red Army arrived in Longshan, it was busy dealing with Lao Chiang and the local landlords and bullies and large bandits, and for these small bandits, there was also no time to clean them up, so naturally there was no grievance. Moreover, most of these small bandits were local peasants, who had been dissurvived by the local landlords and bullies before they went up the mountains and fell to the grass.

I don't know how the bandits on the mountain discussed, but after a full minute, when Zhang Qingshan and the others were a little impatient, the bandits on the mountain shouted: "Give you face this time, don't take this road in the future." ”

"Thank you!" Zhang Qingshan thanked him casually, and asked his comrades-in-arms behind him to wait, but he himself stood up and walked more than ten steps first, seeing that there were no guns on the mountain, and after making sure that it was safe, he asked his comrades-in-arms to hurry up......
