Chapter 55: The Contest

"yes, the war was over then." Speaking of which, both of them were a little sad, too many compatriots lost their lives forever at that time, and too many people suffered from it, Li Zhao's family couldn't be better.

At this time, Li Zhao's father also asked sadly: "What happened to our regiment, I don't know where the team has gone since I retired, I have never heard from them again, I don't know how they are now?" ”

At this time, Division Commander Zhang also replied heavily: "They were very brave, they crossed the river and camped in the south, and later went to the north stick, and only a dozen wounded ones came back, I asked, they were all heroic!" At this time, Master Zhang, who has always been a tough guy, also had red eyes, Li Zhao's father was even more in tears, and Li Zhao also grabbed his father's hand and stroked his back at this time. The two were silent for a long time, and they could only sigh helplessly.

Seeing that the two of them are no longer sad, they are about to start a martial arts competition again, and looking at the appearance of everyone, they must have watched the competition before they started other things. So Li Zhao also began to arrange it at this time, first of all, the candy and peanuts he brought back, there were a few catties, this one will be put on for a while, and then arrange the canteen to see if there are any melons and fruits that can be eaten, and then put it on for a while, and after looking around, it will be cucumbers and tomatoes, no matter how much they are washed first. He also asked people to prepare water cups, boiling water, and boil some more mung bean soup, and then use spring water to ice it.

He also instructed his brother to take someone to the field to pick one or twenty watermelons, and if there were more, he could also pick some back, and first get them back and ice them in the spring. They are all very big watermelons, twenty or thirty pounds each, and the big ones may be forty or fifty pounds, but the skin of the melon is very thick. After a while, these people will be thirsty, and it will be really hot. Especially the people competing on both sides, all of them have come down and have not collapsed, and no one has arranged these, so they can only be the logistics themselves.

There is no way to do it, who let Liu Shan come to a surprise attack, Li Zhao's father didn't know that Liu Shan would bring someone to compete today. And Division Commander Zhang was even more surprised, he went to inspect the troops below, and found that Liu Shan's regiment reported a platoon to go out for training, which felt very strange, so he found it according to the address, and they were still front and rear. This was also the norm behind enemy lines back then, and it was also a kind of training, if something happened to the other party, as long as there was no war, it was not allowed to compete, and the competition often began with an emergency assembly.

And Li Zhao's side, yesterday he asked his brother to inform him that there were more than 40 people, and more than 50 people came at once, and this time, more than 100 people came to the village. After arranging these, he asked if there was any problem with the canteen at noon, and after getting a reply that there was no problem, Li Zhao also gave a suggestion on what to eat at noon, and today the whole village has a boiled egg, which is considered an extra meal.

Then I called a few people, moved the seats and benches out, put them under the tree, and put the things in a bit of a tea party. also told everyone that they would take what they needed, and Li Zhao also arranged for someone to take it back and wash it as long as they found it, and then put it back.

At this time, the children in the village also came around, and the adults were already busy with something now, but they didn't have time to come over to see the excitement, and the little fart children who were a few years old were completely fine, and now they all came to see the excitement, Li Zhao couldn't help it, this food was limited, and there was really nothing to share after looking around, and finally gritted his teeth and gave each person a candy. Seeing Li Zhaofentang's gritted teeth, there was someone who couldn't be happy at this time, and it was Su Ya.

Then there are various competitions, the first is to run, there is no venue here, but it doesn't matter, the two teams together, go up the mountain, reach the top of the mountain and come back, just hope for the telescope, watch here, remember the number of people who reached the top of the mountain, both sides are not a loss. The terrain is explained, except for the section of the ditch, the mountain road is along the path of water, and the mountain mainly relies on physical strength and movement coordination, fully armed. The mountain behind is not a big mountain, at most it is a small mountain bag, not far, about two kilometers back and forth, and it will be compared quickly, comparable.

Then it is half an hour to dig anti-artillery trenches, look at the completion and the shape and depth of the trenches, who is excellent, who wins, of course, the regular army wins in this game in shape, and the militia is slightly stronger in depth and length. In the end, it was the judgment made by Division Commander Zhang, which was a draw, because the militia was just backward in knowledge, not because they couldn't dig trenches, so there were already two draws.

Then there is the bayonet, the militia side is completely a copy of the Eighth Route Army battlefield stab, the regular army side is similar, are three people in a group of three to cooperate with each other, but most of the militia side have been practicing for five or six years or even seven or eight years, the technology is more mature, and the manual labor is more, the strength may be greater, and the endurance is also a little advantage, and finally after some fighting, there are about a dozen people left on the militia side, and the regular army is all out and wins a game.

Then came the bombing, and it turned out that the militia was still superior. This is also very understandable, Li Zhao has dug a lot of ditches with these militiamen, and after these tests, strong physical strength naturally has an advantage.

The last is shooting, this can't be helped, although the militia has a lot of longer training time, but the bullet is really not as much as the regular army training, the marksmanship is more than 95 rings on average, and the militia is really a lot worse, on average, only 89 rings, so the marksmanship competition, the regular army wins.

The final result also came out at this time, the regular army won in marksmanship, won a game, and lost in the two of stabbing and bombing, tied in running and digging trenches, and the final result was self-evident, the militia won. Li Zhao's father was happy at this time, but Liu Shan's face was so dark that he couldn't help it.

Seeing the completion of the competition, Li Zhao directly asked Master Zhang, and after getting a positive answer, let everyone eat watermelon and drink ice mung bean soup first.

Fortunately, these people brought by Li Zhao have been in the shade of the trees, which is quite enjoyable to watch, and they usually don't have a chance to see such a competition. After resting for a quarter of an hour, Liu Shan gathered the soldiers and let the soldiers return to the camp, and Li Yu also let everyone disband, no way, the time was too late, the intensity of this pass was very strong, it took almost three hours before and after, and the time was about to reach eleven o'clock, and the logging could only be arranged another day.

This competition, the reporter also took a lot of photos here, it is estimated that he can write a good report when he goes back, of course, this is also to say hello to Commander Zhang, they are also quite satisfied this time, not only have the future rural plan, but also have the news of this regular army and militia competition, this trip is quite worthwhile.

And although the commissioner was young, he also nodded again and again, this person Li Zhao didn't have much contact, it was the leaders of the ministry who contacted him, but he was quite satisfied with the situation.

Then Li Zhao also introduced to several parties, introduced the leaders of the Ministry of Machinery and the Ministry of Agriculture to Master Zhang, and also introduced Master Zhang to people from two departments, including several responsible persons in the village and reporters. At this time, the leaders of the mechanical department chatted with Master Zhang, and in the end, the two sides said that they both came out behind an enemy, but the two had never dealt with each other. Moreover, the leader of the Machinery Department was at a higher level than Master Zhang at that time, and the leader was more educated, so the two of them had a sense of seeing each other late.

It's really a coincidence that so many people gathered in the village at once.

Everyone also ate iced watermelon, drank mung bean soup to relieve the heat, and went to the village seat, and Li Zhao gave people a general introduction to the future new rural plan. They knew about Li Zhao's father and eldest brother, but they didn't say anything about it, after all, the plan was too big and difficult to realize, and now that Li Zhao had an opportunity, he simply said it.

Then Li Zhao's father also introduced the situation in the village, including the implementation of militarized management, and the necessity of militarized management, and also emphasized the management methods and importance when eating big pot rice. The majority of our masses are all good, but we must resolutely crack down on and resolutely resist some bad elements who do not want to make progress, and we must not allow a few bad elements to undermine our excellent situation.

Then it is to introduce some of the situation in the village, including the population and population composition, and then said that in the case of using new agricultural machinery, Lijia Village has cultivated twice as many crops as in the past this year, calculated the surplus for everyone, deducted public grain, rations, etc., plus logging and raising livestock, etc., and finally came to the conclusion that this year's surplus will reach five or six thousand, possibly more, and also said that the village is ready to purchase tractors.

When everyone heard this, they were secretly frightened, you must know that most of the villages basically have the most food, and Lijia Village can actually have a surplus of several thousand this year, what a great achievement, and people already have a plan to buy tractors, which is only possible in many wealthy places in the south.
