Chapter 280: First Discovery

readx;?“ Big brother, look, what's over there, why do I feel like a person?"

Around four o'clock in the afternoon, the four of them walked around and searched, hoping to find a dry place to rest. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhou Baoyu had to use a telescope to search, so Zhang Qingshan had to give him the only pair of binoculars to play with. But Zhou Baoyu looked at it for about a minute, and suddenly pointed to the front right, with a little excitement in anticipation, and asked while handing the telescope to Zhang Qingshan.

The vast water and meadows, boundless, and finally meeting a Red Army soldier is definitely the ecstasy of 'meeting old acquaintances in a foreign land'.

Zhang Qingshan grabbed the telescope and looked in the direction pointed by Zhou Baoyu: about four or five hundred meters in front of the right, there is a small dirt slope two or three meters high, and there is a raised point on the soil slope. If you look closely, someone should be lying there.

"There are really people, most likely stragglers, let's go and see. Zhang Qingshan couldn't help the ecstasy in his heart, and shouted that he was about to run over there, but was pulled by Tashi: "Wait a minute." ”

"What's wrong?"

"This is a water meadow, no matter what happens, you must not be reckless. Rushing towards you like this, it is inevitable that one of you will accidentally fall into the swamp, so it is better to see your feet clearly and walk through step by step. At the same time......" Tashi hesitated for a moment, and then said, "You have to be mentally prepared. ”

The previous words made Zhang Qingshan and the three of them feel a little grateful for Tashi's reminder, and at the same time, they blamed themselves for their recklessness, but his last sentence made the three of them chuckle in their hearts, and their mood fell down quickly.

The three of them are not stupid, and naturally understand the meaning of Tashi's words: Tashi has always been in the Lausanne tribe, that is to say, if there are Red Army troops passing by around the Lausanne tribe, they will find that for friendly reasons, they will naturally invite the tribe as guests, such as Zhang Qingshan and a few of them. The fact that the Red Army soldier lying on the small dirt slope in front of him was not found, which means that he was probably not from the Red Second Front -- the point is that although the color of the uniforms of the Red Second Front was somewhat different, none of them were gray-green.

On the other hand, even if he is from the Red Second Front, he is already lying there motionless, which shows that he is more than lucky. That's why Tashi made the three of them mentally prepared to see the corpses of their comrades-in-arms - in fact, Tashi not only made them prepare to see the corpses of their comrades-in-arms, but also made them mentally prepared to see the tragic state of the decomposed bones of their comrades-in-arms. That's why Tashi hesitated, but he couldn't say it directly.

Zhang Qingshan's excited expression gradually became solemn, he looked at the two people on the right, and saw that the ecstasy in their eyes gradually extinguished, and his heart was even more unpleasant - after all, this was the first comrade he met after entering the water meadow, but he didn't expect that there was a corpse. This is a bit of a 'foreign acquaintance, but a debt collector' as depressed.

But in any case, even if the other party is really a corpse, it is also the corpse of his own comrades, and he must go over to see the situation, because there is a case for everything!

It was still Tashi who took the lead, and several of them walked slightly faster than before, but they all followed Tashi - because of the blow of Tashi's words, the three of them were less impulsive.

The closer they got to the small dirt slope, the more they could see that there was indeed a person lying there, and the more anxious the three of them became, but Tashi, who was walking in the front, was always unhurried, and Zhang Qingshan and the three of them were not too anxious and impulsive, so they could only restrain themselves. But when he was still forty or fifty meters away from the small dirt slope, Zhou Baoyu couldn't help it, put his hands to his mouth in the shape of trumpets, and shouted at the small dirt slope: "That comrade, are you okay?"

The three of them stared intently, hoping that the man would have an echo, and even if he only moved slightly, it was a great encouragement to the expectation in the hearts of the three people, but the man didn't say anything as if he hadn't heard, so that the hearts of the three began to fall again, and the pace was a little anxious.

Tashi, who was walking in the front, just looked up at the lying man, and then stared at the water and grass under his feet wholeheartedly, neither saying anything nor looking back, because he could already judge the result, but he still couldn't bear to say it.

"That comrade, we are also the Red Army, we are from the Red Second Front, where are you...... Could you please reply?"

Zhou Baoyu's shouts wandered, but except for the wind blowing, except for the gaze of a few eyes, there was no result.

Helplessness in a hurry is a great torment!

When he was still seven or eight meters away from the small dirt slope, Zhou Baoyu finally couldn't help it. Throwing away the reins in his hand, ignoring Tashi's reminder, he rushed towards the small dirt slope.

Tashi wanted to stop it, but he could see Zhou Baoyu's hurried meaning, and the other two didn't say anything, just looked at it with anxiety, so he had to swallow back the words that came to his mouth, but his pace increased, and he was ready to save at any time - in fact, from the inside, it was only about ten meters away, and he didn't think there would be any big danger, after all, as far as he knew, in the water meadow, the closer to the dry place, the lower the possibility of swamps around it. Besides, even if there is danger, after you are ready to rescue, you should be able to save it in time.

Zhang Qingshan kept an eye on Zhou Baoyu, and was greatly relieved to see that he had rushed to the small dirt slope safely. However, he was surprised to find that Zhou Baoyu hurriedly ran to the top of the small dirt slope, just after looking at the comrade, his face turned suddenly pale, he covered his mouth, turned around and ran down the dirt slope, and after running for less than two steps, he squatted on the ground and vomited vigorously......

What does that mean?

Zhang Qingshan glanced at Zhou Ping on the right, and saw that there was also incomprehension in his eyes, but it was more heavy, which made Zhang Qingshan's heart startled. Subconsciously glanced at Tashi on the left, but saw that Tashi was frowning deeply, looking at Xiaotupo with a solemn face, Zhang Qingshan suddenly understood: It was definitely a corpse, and it was likely to be a corpse in decay, too miserable to see, so that Zhou Baoyu, who had seen life and death, would have such a big reaction.

After a few jumps, Zhang Qingshan came to the small dirt slope, didn't care about Zhou Baoyu, and rushed directly to the top of the slope, and at a glance, Zhang Qingshan finally knew why Zhou Baoyu vomited: to be precise, this is a slope, from the direction where Zhang Qingshan came, I just saw a person lying there, but when I looked here, I saw four corpses lying on my stomach or reclining. Each corpse was dressed in a patched military uniform, and at first glance it was clear that it was the same company, or at least the same army, and they had already turned into skeletons...... Zhang Qingshan didn't have any adverse reactions, but he looked carefully with a deep frown, because he vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say why.

"These people must have gone astray, and no one has been here, otherwise these bodies would have been buried long ago. I don't know when Tashi came to his side, but his deep words came clearly in his ears: "We have seen corpses like this before, but we will bury ......."

After saying this, Tashi pondered for a moment and said, "You must be prepared in your hearts, because the further you go in, the more such a scene will appear." ”

Zhang Qingshan nodded and did not answer. As a matter of fact, he didn't know what to say, and he didn't even mean to point out that Tashi had said something wrong: It is possible that these people have gone astray, but it is more likely that they voluntarily left the ranks -- since the Long March, there have been fewer seriously wounded soldiers who have committed suicide on their own initiative in order not to involve other comrades? Zhang Qingshan is convinced that everyone is a Red Army, and this kind of self-sacrificing spirit definitely exists in other units.

I don't know if Zhou Ping heard Zhang Qingshan's heart or thought the same as Zhang Qingshan, he took two steps forward, squatted in front of the corpse and looked at it for a while, then pulled out his bayonet and used the bayonet to pick at the corpse's clothes.

"Don't touch it!"

Tashi's words were too late.

It was normal for the bayonet to pick up a little bit of clothing, but with a little force on it, the piece of clothing that was picked up was shattered into several pieces, and at a glance it was weathered.

Zhou Ping frowned, and looked up at Tashi and Zhang Qingshan, because he could easily analyze from the fragments of weathered clothes: these four people should be the soldiers of the Red Army that passed by the Lausanne tribe more than a year ago. At that time, there were thousands of people in that team, but the fact that all four of them were like this shows how great the danger lies - the point is that it is only a day and a half away from the Lausanne tribe, and there are dead people, and it is conceivable that such a scene is absolutely indispensable ahead.

Seeing that Zhang Qingshan didn't make a sound, Zhou Ping simply used a bayonet to pick open the corpse's shirt little by little.

Suddenly!

Zhou Ping stopped picking up clothes, looked carefully at the ribs, looked up at Zhang Qingshan, and said solemnly: "Before this comrade died, he was definitely a seriously injured man. ”

Zhang Qingshan hurriedly stepped forward and squatted beside him to observe: Sure enough, there was a small gap on the side of this rib, and the gap was smooth and flat, and at a glance, it was known that it was instantly shattered by something like a bullet to have such an effect.

Zhang Qingshan also pulled out the big knife on his back and walked towards the next corpse.

Sure enough, these four bodies should have been sacrificed at the same time period, and they were all more or less wounded...... Zhang Qingshan had such a picture in his mind: four seriously injured comrades, because they didn't want to involve other comrades-in-arms, and felt that they couldn't get out of the water and grassland alive...... Because, Zhang Qingshan heard a lot of such things.

For Zhang Qingshan and them, this somewhat calmed down a little disappointment: although the seriously injured comrade committed suicide, although he was sad and angry, it was understandable, and he believed that he could do it. But the most important thing is that none of these four people are in good health, which can also reflect from the side that the previous speculation about the degree of danger of the road ahead is not so high.

Just when Zhang Qingshan's brows were deeply furrowed, Zhou Ping came to him, opened his right hand, and said in a deep voice while showing Zhang Qingshan what was in his hand: "Old Zhang, look at this." ”
