"I understand what you said, but if I tell you, the reason why I gave you this important task is not only because of my trust in you, but more importantly, because you used to be a hero in the green forest, do you believe it or not?"

Li Jing looked at Zhang Qingshan in amazement, his eyes were full of disbelief and incomprehension, his mouth was so wide that he didn't even know that the cigarette in his mouth had fallen.

However, Zhang Qingshan seemed to enjoy Li Jing's look very much, and he was not in a hurry at all, and looked at it with a smile.

After a short while, Li Jing suddenly closed his mouth and came back to his senses.

"Commander, you said that 'heroes don't ask where they come from', but now you are always ...... Always ......"

Zhang Qingshan patted Li Jing's shoulder with a smile, and without waiting for him to finish, he took out a cigarette and handed it to him with a smile: "Lao Li, you really misunderstood what I meant, I really didn't mean to hold on to your past, otherwise, I wouldn't have waited until now, right? As far as this mission is concerned, I really value the point of being a hero in the green forest." ”

Hearing this, Li Jing suddenly remembered that he seemed to have brought this up three times and twice, and Zhang Qingshan emphasized every time that he was not pursuing his past. immediately felt that Zhang Qingshan was sincere and had no other meaning, but really valued his former background, and immediately relaxed a lot.

Then, he lit a cigarette and said with a smile: "Commander, can you give me careful guidance? Otherwise, my heart is always up and down." ”

The two talked as they walked.

"To put it simply, the top commander of this operation must have three points: command ability, be very familiar with the surrounding area, and be determined. ”

Li Jing thought for a while, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Leader, I really don't understand, you still give me specific guidance, can you?"

"Command ability is divided into two points: first, you must have commanded several major battles, at least at the battalion level, after all, it is not easy to command thousands of people, and our regiment is barely in line with this article for a few of your battalion commanders. Second, it is necessary to have fought guerrilla warfare, and neither the commander of the first battalion nor the commander of the second battalion is suitable, since they have been fighting on the main forces since they joined the revolution, and have not engaged in a separate guerrilla war. And you, who started from scratch, and it is common for you to fight guerrilla warfare in the mountains with former warlords, and you have your own unique way of fighting guerrilla warfare, otherwise, you would not be able to pull up a team of several hundred people. In this regard, you have an advantage over all of them. Speaking of this, Zhang Qingshan patted Li Jing on the shoulder and said, "So, Comrade Li Jing, take out all the methods you used to use to pull a team to deal with the warlords, and give these little devils a good taste of your methods." ”

"Commander, don't worry, I will do everything I can to clean up these little devils. ”

Zhang Qingshan nodded, and then continued: "We are not as familiar with the surrounding terrain and landforms as well as the villages, that is, Li Ming, the captain of our Sanqiao County Guerrilla Brigade, is almost the same as you, but he doesn't have the upper point, so it's only you." ”

Li Jing nodded and acknowledged this.

But just when he was about to wait for the next explanation, Zhang Qingshan suddenly glanced at Sun Chengcheng who was following behind him, this time, Sun Chengcheng immediately stopped his pace very sensibly, and didn't look back and forth, until he and Zhang Qingshan opened a distance of more than ten meters before they followed slowly.

And Zhang Qingshan got closer to Li Jing and whispered: "Lao Li, it's just the two of us here, and I'll be honest with you. ”

"Don't look at me like that, it's not just my personal request, it's also everyone's hope, it's just that they can't say it. ”

Li Jing's face suddenly became serious, looked at Zhang Qingshan, and asked, "Commander, what do you want me to do, just give orders." ”

"This time, for other little devils, we can do it according to the policy, but for the little devils who killed the big team up the hill, I have only one request for you: if you dare to resist a little, you will be slaughtered immediately. Lao Li, can you do this request from me?"

Li Jing immediately nodded and said, "Regiment Leader, don't worry, I understand." The little devils don't treat us Chinese as people at all, they want to kill if they want to, they want to rescue and rob, they simply want to kill us completely, for such beasts, Lao Tzu wants to be polite to them, then it will be hell. ”

"Yes! A tooth for a tooth, blood for a blood!" Zhang Qingshan patted Li Jing's shoulder heavily and smiled happily: "Of course, from the overall situation, you also have to see the benefits of doing this." After all, the little devil will definitely send more people than just send a brigade to the northwest to slaughter the villagers. Because the little devils slaughtered so unscrupulously, not only did they exterminate humanity, but they also hoped that this would anger us and make us continue to divide our troops, thereby reducing the strength of our city defense. And the best way to stop them is to return blood for blood, only if they hurt them, beat them and fear them, they dare not kill our people so unscrupulously, and even dare not kill people and set fires everywhere, at that time, they feel that our strong revenge will inevitably be more ruthless and iron-blooded than them, and they will have all scruples and dare not do it again. ”

"Commander, I understand, don't worry, I won't be merciful. After speaking, I felt that it was a little insufficient to express my heart, so I hurriedly added: "At least, I will not be merciful to the bullshit little devil brigade that killed the one hundred and fifty people who went up the hill for no reason, and I will definitely ask them to pay for their blood debts." ”

"It's good to understand. So, do you have a good idea of who to take with you?"

"Yes!" Li Jing nodded and said, "I have drawn two platoons from the first company, all of which have been active in this area before, and they are specially used to clean up the little devils in guerrilla warfare. Two more platoons were drawn from the third platoon, and their main purpose was to stabilize the main force on the battlefield...... Captain, that's what you mean, right?"

"Ha! Lao Li, your level in all aspects has improved very quickly, which really impresses me!"

Li Jing immediately sent it over: "This is all taught by you, the head of the regiment, and I have only learned a little bit." ”

Subsequently, the two exchanged ideas on how to fight this battle and how to make amends with the villagers. In the end, Zhang Qingshan beckoned, and Sun Cheng ran over quickly and handed Li Jing a big burden that he had been carrying in his hand.

"Lao Li, it doesn't matter if you have walked the wrong road and made mistakes, after all, everyone will make mistakes, the key is to see if you know your mistakes and can change them, and if you can do this, you are still a good comrade...... If you want to have a good relationship with the villagers in this area, in addition to sincerely apologizing, you must also have practical actions to apologize. Here, there are 500 oceans and 20 gold bars, except for the necessary expenses left for the soldiers and militiamen, the rest will be compensated to the villagers, and it can be regarded as an apology to the villagers for the past. ”

Li Jing hesitated for a moment and silently accepted it, then took out his pen and typed the receipt.

When he came to the defensive area of the 5th Battalion at the North Gate, Li Jing did as he was told, and raised two elite platoons from the 1st Company and the 3rd Company to form a reinforced company. And all kinds of materials and corresponding personnel also happened to arrive, and everyone hurried to get busy.

Under the witness of Zhang Qingshan, he and He Gongnong, the instructor of the fifth battalion, simply handed over - in fact, there is nothing to hand over, if He Gongnong and Li Jing could not cooperate, the two would have quarreled a long time ago, and now that the cooperation is happy, He Gongnong can naturally take over Li Jing's work at any time.

Subsequently, Li Jing took the reinforcement company and took advantage of the night to cross the north gate.

Zhang Qingshan had been standing on the north gate, staring at Li Jing and the others who had disappeared into the night for a long time, and he didn't know what he was thinking at this time.

It wasn't until more than half an hour later that Zhang Qingshan suddenly came back to his senses and said lightly: "There have been no gunshots for so long, it seems that Lao Li and they are safe." I hope they go well and don't let down the expectations of their comrades and fellow villagers. ”

......

"Battalion commander, what are we going to do when we come out in the middle of the night?"

One of Li Jing's main henchmen, the former third master, and now the deputy company commander of the first company of the fifth battalion, Ergazi, secretly looked left and right, and asked in a low voice.

Li Jing was pondering the details of how to fight this time, when he was interrupted by Ergazi, and immediately glared at him, and said angrily: "What else can you do? Of course, it's to kill devils." ”

Then he turned his head and ordered: "Go and call the commander of the third company." ”

Soon, Wang Zhongjun, the commander of the third company, came running.

When the three of them got together, Li Jing told all the causes and consequences of this battle and all kinds of instructions. Of course, Zhang Qingshan's so-called 'firm will', he also euphemistically said that it was his own thoughts, and then asked them if they dare?

Ergazi is naturally no problem, and he understands that on this question, he actually asked the commander of the third company.

Wang Zhongjun immediately patted his chest and said: "Battalion commander, don't worry, in order to avenge this one hundred and fifty blind dates, even if you shoot me afterwards, I will not regret it." ”

"Okay! Just do it!" Li Jing excitedly patted the shoulders of the two, and then instructed: "The sword and gun have no eyes, in case I am unfortunately sacrificed, I will be replaced by Lao Wang." Ergazi, you have to be unconditionally obedient, dry brush tricks, Lao Wang, you killed him directly...... If Lao Wang also sacrifices, Ergazi, the team will be led by you to continue to fight devils. Anyway, I have only one request for the two of you: to complete this task for Lao Tzu even if he dies, otherwise, Lao Tzu's face is small, and it is a big guy who can't avenge the villagers. Lao Tzu swore a poisonous oath in front of the regiment commander and political commissar. ”

Wang Zhongjun and Ergazi glanced at each other, saluted Li Jing at the same time, and replied loudly: "Yes!

"Well, you two go back, and tell the brethren what we are trying to do this war, and if you don't want to, it's too late to go back now. If you have any opinions, ask him to come to me. ”

Then, watching the two return to their respective teams to convey, Li Jing began to ponder while hurrying again.

"Bang, bang, bang......"

"Da! da! da......"

After walking for nearly an hour and a half, when I was about to reach Majiapo Village, the destination of this trip, for another half hour, there was a sudden burst of gunfire......
