march to victory

"Hey~! Comrade! Comrade~!"

Zhou Baoyu put his hands around his mouth in the shape of a trumpet, and shouted towards that side.It's a pity that the other party didn't seem to hear it, and there was no echo - the enemy would not enter the water grassland even if killed, so any humans found in the water grassland, especially those wearing military uniforms, could only be the Red Army.

How could Zhou Baoyu, who was so excited, be willing to give up and was about to run over there in a hurry, but when Zhou Ping grabbed him, he turned around and shouted in dissatisfaction, "Old Zhou, what are you pulling me for?"

"With your hands and feet, aren't you afraid of accidentally falling into the swamp?"

Zhou Baoyu really had a natural fear of swamps. When he heard the word 'swamp', he forcibly resisted his impulsive desire.Instead, he urged: "Then let's speed up and rush over immediately."

Saying that, he pulled the horse rope and led the horse to set off first.

Even though Lao Zhou said so, the anticipation and excitement in his heart were no less than Zhou Baoyu's. Seeing that Zhou Baoyu's impulse was restrained, he naturally had nothing to say about Zhou Baoyu's proposal, so he pulled up the rein and walked forward quickly.

In this way, the three of them are still the same as before: Zhang Qingshan walks in the middle, Zhou Ping walks on the right of Zhang Qingshan, about three or four meters apart, and Zhou Baoyu walks on the left of Zhang Qingshan.

Just like the first time they saw their comrades on the small slope from a distance, the three of them were full of hope, and their pace was accelerating unconsciously.

However, the difference from the first time was that they successfully reached the small slope the first time, but this time, an accident happened.Or it could be said that extreme joy begets sorrow, or it could be carelessness under ecstasy.

After a few days of walking on the water and grass, Zhou Baoyu's fear of the swamp weakened a little because he was always safe, or he was in ecstasy, so he didn't care much about the situation under his feet.

No, I kept speeding up all the way. When I was about 100 meters away from the dirt slope, Zhou Baoyu, who was running at the front, confirmed with his naked eyes: there was indeed a large group of people on the dirt slope, some sitting back to back, some Lie down, and most importantly, none of them are bones.Joyful Zhou Baoyu yelled as he ran over there, and waved his arms to greet each other from time to time. Although he still didn't get a response, he was still full of confidence.

When they were only about 50 meters away, Zhou Baoyu noticed at a glance that these people looked calm, as if they were asleep.

Zhou Baoyu roared and waved his arms, perhaps because he found that the rein in his hand hindered the strength of his arms, so he subconsciously threw the rein away.Seeing that these people still didn't respond, he simply gave up his horse and rushed directly to the other party - ordinary people can't imagine the ecstasy in Zhou Baoyu's heart at this time, and can't appreciate his firmness that he can't wait to see his companion.Imagine, when you walk in a quiet place for several days and nights, and even the two companions around you have nothing to say, the pressure, the despair, and even the urge to commit suicide must It wasn't his revolutionary beliefs that supported him. I'm afraid he would have been overwhelmed by such an environment long ago. After all, he was only a 15-year-old boy.Therefore, at this time, Zhou Baoyu's heart was fanatical, his blood was boiling, and even his ecstatic eyes showed a kind of madness, a kind of eagerness to see his comrades, so as to confirm the firmness and strength of his beliefs. A ray of hope for the future.

Although Zhang Qingshan and Zhou Ping were equally fanatical and eager to meet their comrades, they were adults who had experienced life and death after all, and their degree in the city was definitely much deeper than that of Zhou Baoyu.Therefore, the two of them could restrain their inner impulsive desires.However, seeing Zhou Baoyu running over in such a reckless manner, the two of them chose to remain silent at the same time: first, they saw so close, shouted so loudly, and there were so many people on the other side who did not respond at all, which is absolutely abnormal, and The anticipation in the hearts of the two began to fall, which also made them want to determine whether the group of people were alive or dead; second, they both ran for more than [-] meters, and there were puddles all the way, without any danger , Then, with the distance of fifty meters, the two of them subconsciously thought that there would be no danger, so they subconsciously relaxed.

These made the three of them temporarily forget that they were in the place that Luosang and others regarded as a devil's place - the water and grassland!

However, danger often hits you hardest when you are most careless.

"……what!"

I saw Zhou Baoyu screaming and jumping and running, suddenly!With a loud yell, the whole person seemed to be short, and then he yelled in horror: "Brother, Lao Zhou, come and save me, I'm trapped in the swamp, come quickly..."

Zhang Qingshan and Zhou Ping were about 20 meters away from the place where Zhou Baoyu's accident happened. Hearing Zhou Baoyu's cry, and even Zhou Baoyu's sudden fall in, they really didn't take it seriously.Hearing Zhou Baoyu's cry for help, especially the word "swamp", the two of them rushed over in an instant - because of the difference in buoyancy, if Zhou Baoyu fell into a puddle, at most one of his heads would stick out. But now, Zhou Baoyu suddenly became shorter, so the only possibility is that he was really trapped in the swamp.

"Baoyu, don't move!" Zhang Qingshan yelled at Zhou Baoyu, and then shouted to Zhou Ping on the left: "Old Zhou, be careful where you step."

Zhou Baoyu stood there crying and shouted: "I didn't move, and I didn't dare to move! Brother, Lao Zhou, you two hurry up and save me, I...I feel something is pulling me down."

How about the importance of exercise: think about Zhou Baoyu's panicked appearance when he fell into the puddle, and now look at Zhou Baoyu's tense body, standing stupidly, even though his body is sinking bit by bit. Going in, but still restraining the fear in my heart, I dare not move.This is definitely thanks to the fact that Zhou Baoyu fell into the puddle earlier, and Zhou Ping proposed to take the opportunity to temper Zhou Baoyu.Otherwise, if Zhou Baoyu faced this feeling of sinking for the first time, he would definitely react much more intensely than the first time he fell into a puddle, and the speed of sinking would naturally be much faster, although His current posture is not the most correct, but he has not struggled anyway, which is definitely a huge improvement.

"Baoyu, put your body on the mud, don't stand so straight."

Regarding Zhou Ping's words, Zhou Baoyu almost cried out with a mournful face: "Old Zhou, don't hurt me, I... I can sink in fast enough if I stand like this. If I lie on my stomach, wouldn't it be gone in a blink of an eye?"

"Idiot, you forgot that before entering the swamp, the precautions and methods handed out above said that in the trap swamp, spread your limbs and lie on the mud so you won't get stuck..."

Before he finished shouting, Zhou Baoyu interrupted: "I... I'm still afraid. You should hurry up and save me."

"Forget it, Lao Zhou, Baoyu is afraid now, it's useless to say more, you better run faster, it's important to pull him out earlier."

While talking, the two had already rushed to a place about three meters in front of Zhou Baoyu. In order to prevent Zhou Baoyu from being trapped due to the strength, they could only choose a safe distance as a buffer.

At this time, Zhou Baoyu's entire lower body had been trapped in the swamp.However, seeing that Zhang Qingshan and Zhou Ping had already rushed there, Zhou Baoyu was not so scared, but urged: "Brother, quickly throw the rope over."

Although both the superior and Tashi have been constantly reminding them how powerful the swamp is swallowing up, hearing about it and experiencing it personally are not the same concept at all.

If it was in a puddle, let alone Zhou Baoyu's lower body was submerged, even if his entire body was submerged, Zhang Qingshan was confident that he could kick him out with one hand.But facing the swamp, Zhang Qingshan immediately discovered the strength of the swamp.

"Baoyu, don't just grab the rope, wrap the rope around your arm a few more times." Throwing the rope over, seeing that Zhou Baoyu was only holding one end of the rope, Zhang Qingshan was afraid that the rope would slip while pulling him, so he quickly reminded him.He added: "You lean your body towards me."

"Old Zhou, I'm afraid this place won't be able to bear the strength and weight of the two of us. You lean back a little, and I'll pull it first."

After Zhou Baoyu had done what he said, Zhang Qingshan pulled Zhou Baoyu's hand back with five or six minutes of strength, in order not to hurt Zhou Baoyu's hand, but unexpectedly, Zhou Baoyu's body only moved forward a little. The moment Zhang Qingshan changed his posture, Zhou Baoyu's body not only returned to the previous state, but also continued to sink.

This time, Zhang Qingshan's unyielding thought was aroused in his bones.

Standing in a horse stance with both feet, grasping the rope with both hands, leaning back, pulling with all the strength.

Although Zhou Baoyu's arm hurt from being tightly bound by the rope, he knew he couldn't shout, so he had to grit his teeth and hold on, and was pulled out bit by bit.

And Zhou Ping, who had been watching nervously, saw that Zhou Baoyu was pulled out of the swamp, and Zhang Qingshan was obviously holding his breath. In order to prevent Zhang Qingshan from changing his breath in time and causing Zhou Baoyu to sink again, he hurried forward, He hugged Zhang Qingshan's waist and pulled him back hard.

After all, Zhou Baoyu was lighter, and the two adults pulled hard together, pulling him out of the swamp in about ten seconds.

As soon as Zhou Baoyu was pulled to his side, Zhang Qingshan, who was already blushing, let out a long breath.Immediately, with a solemn face, he looked sternly at Zhou Baoyu, who was covered in mud, and was getting up to look at him apologetically, and said, "What are you waiting for? Why don't you go and wash off the mud?"

Zhang Qingshan really treated Zhou Baoyu as his own younger brother. On weekdays, when Zhou Baoyu made some small mistakes, Zhang Qingshan often laughed it off, and sometimes even stood up for it.But now this kind of life and death experience made him furious, and naturally he didn't have a good face.

Zhou Baoyu was startled and frightened, he didn't dare to talk back, he walked obediently to a puddle seven or eight meters away, but he didn't dare to go into the water because he was bitten by a snake for ten years, and he turned around and begged: "Brother , Old Zhou, can you two look at me, I'm afraid there will be another swamp here."

"Afraid of a fart! It looks like a puddle, and it won't drown you."

After being yelled at by Zhang Qingshan, Zhou Baoyu felt extremely wronged, but he didn't dare to refute. After sweeping his eyes at Zhou Ping with his mouth curled up, he had no choice but to subdue the water bit by bit.

"Come on, Lao Zhang, there are swamps and puddles all over here. Sometimes even I can't tell the difference. Baoyu stepped into the swamp by accident. Don't be angry. Let's go wash together!"

Zhang Qingshan looked down, got it!I am also full of mud.

He nodded, and was about to turn around to wash the mud off his body, but suddenly thought of something, his face turned cold, his brows frowned, his eyes turned cold, and he pointed at the dirt slope not far away, and exclaimed...
