march to victory

"Sister Xueqin is fine. It's just that she has become a little quiet."

Qin Fang finally stopped her tears, but she was still a little choked up when she spoke.

Hearing this, the stone in Zhang Qingshan's heart finally fell to the ground.From the fact that he flicked the cigarette butt two meters away with his fingers, lit a cigarette skillfully, and smoked it slowly, it could be seen that he was in a much more relaxed mood.

Seeing that Qin Fang didn't continue after saying this sentence, Zhou Baoyu was anxious: "Is there nothing else?"

"No more." Qin Fang turned her head and glared at Zhou Baoyu, subconsciously said: "What else do you want to know..." But before she finished speaking, she saw Zhou Baoyu sneaking a few glances at Zhang Qingshan, and then Look over and wink at yourself.Qin Fang immediately realized: Zhang Qingshan must still want to hear about Xiang Xueqin, the more the better.

Quickly showed a smile to Zhang Qingshan, and said: "Brother-in-law, you also know that Sister Xueqin is more quarrelsome than me, but after Sister Zhang Lian died, she obviously became a little quiet. Later, I don't know which bastard put the You sacrificed... Well! Tell her that you disappeared, and she is even less talkative-at that time, disappearing often meant sacrifice. Later, she went to the assault company and passed us on her way back Teacher, she came to see me specially. However, when she met me, she held my hand and didn't say a word. Instead, I kept chattering with her, and she kept listening with a smile. At the time of parting, she told me to take care of me, I must walk out of the grass victoriously, and she wanted to get drunk with me in northern Shaanxi..."

You might as well not say that, you can learn from me even if you don’t know how to speak!At this time, how can you say things that worry the elder brother... Zhou Baoyu wanted to secretly stop Qin Fang from continuing, but Qin Fang was the fastest, and said everything in one go.Zhou Baoyu couldn't stop him, so he could only look at Zhang Qingshan, trying to judge Zhang Qingshan's inner thoughts through the subtle changes on Zhang Qingshan's face.

But Zhang Qingshan's complexion didn't change a little, because he kept his face straight, even after hearing this, but Zhou Baoyu faintly felt that Zhang Qingshan's aura seemed to be a little bit lower.

"Xiaofang, after you have been assigned to each division, are you busy?"

"Busy is not busy, because after being assigned to the divisions, the comrades also helped us take care of the wounded. If there are too many people, we will not be so busy."

After Zhang Qingshan asked a few more innocuous questions, he finally asked what worried him most: "How is your sister Xueqin eating?"

"Sister Xueqin was assigned to the [-]th Division, and their condition is slightly better than our [-]th Division. I heard that when Sister Xueqin and the others were first assigned to the [-]th Division, the commander of the [-]th Division specially gave them fifty catties Food. Although not much, but mixed with wild vegetables, it can last for a few days."

Zhang Qingshan nodded and sighed: He can imagine Xiang Xueqin's current situation, and he can also understand the reason why Xiang Xueqin has become less talkative: seeing the wounded sacrifice one by one because of lack of food and medicine, as a nurse, who Can you be happy again?Who wouldn't be overwhelmed by the mounting pressure?But there is nothing that can be done, the helpless pain and despair, as well as the deep self-blame, no outsider can understand.Silence is inevitable!

Stand up and walk more than ten meters away.With his left hand on his hip and a cigarette in his right hand, he looked up at the sky while smoking, but the tears couldn't stop flowing down...

Qin Fang didn't know what happened to Zhang Qingshan, she looked at it strangely, got up and was about to walk over, but was held back by Zhou Ping.

"Xiaofang, let Lao Zhang be alone for a while! We have walked all the way, and the pressure on his shoulders is not small, and he is also very tired. He has been worried about the situation of his sister-in-law and the assault company. Now that he has received this news, We don't have to bother him."

Xiaofang nodded, but looked at Zhang Qingshan's back with a complicated expression: this strange man, it seems that there is nothing he can't do in the world, and she has always been a hero in her heart.But she never thought that such a strong and good man also has such a tender side in his heart... For a moment, she looked a little crazy.

Of course, Qin Fang never noticed that Zhou Baoyu, who was behind her, was picking up a few toffees from the ground in surprise at this time... This is when she threw herself on the ground twice and cried bitterly when she was emotionally excited. The pocket slipped to the floor.

Zhang Qingshan stood there for a full 10 minutes, not even noticing when the cigarette butt in his hand was extinguished.

Wiping away the slightly dry tears on his face with his sleeve, he turned and returned to the crowd.

"Have you all rested?"

"All right."

"Then keep going."

I don't know if it's because the long-term depression on the soul has been released, and Qin Fang has returned to that lively and cute little girl who loves to twitter and bicker with Zhou Baoyu, completely forgetting Zhang Qingshan's previous warning.On the contrary, Zhou Baoyu still remembers. Therefore, it is doomed that when Zhou Baoyu is bickering, every time it comes to a critical moment, he will not dare to continue bickering because he remembered Zhang Qingshan's warning, and his momentum will become weaker and weaker. The backlog of precipitation began again.

The water and grass land seems to be peaceful, but there are many crises in the dark.Among other things, just because of the combination of water and plants, stepping on it is like stepping on a tofu bag. The seemingly thick and stable haystack sinks directly, while the surrounding water emits a "gudong" while bubbling. "The sound made people feel a little frightened, always worrying that the water plants that I would step on would sink directly if I stepped on it.

Especially now that it has just finished raining, the grass is more lustrous and the water is clearer, but it is this kind of scene that seems to see the bottom at a glance, which is often more likely to make people numb and careless, and the danger increases sharply: clear Water, it is easy for people to ignore its true depth, and it is even more dangerous to fall.

Whether it was Peng Bing or Wu Shaohong, they nearly fell off their horses along the way. In the end, Zhang Qingshan and Zhou Ping were responsible for noticing and rescuing a wounded man, and they managed to keep them from falling off their horses.Sometimes, there were too many puddles. In order to prevent the horses from stepping on the aquatic plants with heavy loads, and the aquatic plants could not bear such a heavy weight, Peng Bing and Wu Shaohong had to dismount and walk with crutches.

But anyway, on the first day, the six of them found a small piece of dry grass to camp at sunset without any risk.

There is no need to ask, the few people have a tacit understanding as if they have cooperated for many years: Zhang Qingshan is in charge of cutting meat and distributing food rations, Zhou Baoyu is in charge of fetching water, Zhou Ping is in charge of digging pits and lighting fires, Peng Bing and Wu Shaohong are in charge of picking wild vegetables, Qin Fang Responsible for washing vegetables and changing dressings for the two wounded after eating.

After a tiring day, it was finally time to camp, and everyone's melancholy mood gradually improved.

Zhou Baoyu was carrying a pot, humming a revolutionary song, and walked briskly to a place of clear water that he had chosen long ago. He was about to bend down to fetch water when he suddenly found something that made him open his mouth and say "Ah!" cried out.

Others thought that something had happened to him, so they turned their heads to look over, but saw Zhou Baoyu holding the pot ear in his left hand, pointing at the puddle with his right hand, his face turned red with excitement, and shouted: "There are fish! There are big fish here... Ha! Ha! We can eat fish..."

Watching Zhou Baoyu put the pot down as soon as he was talking, and dance around in circles in celebration, as if he had already eaten the fish.

As another snack, Qin Fang immediately threw the wild vegetables she was picking on a piece of cloth as soon as she heard about the fish, and said, "I'll go and see if he's cheating." In a daze, he rushed towards Zhou Baoyu without looking back.The speed was so fast that even Zhang Qingshan was surprised: When I rushed against the reactionary party, I didn't seem to be so fast.

He rushed to Zhou Baoyu's side in one breath, grabbed Zhou Baoyu and asked anxiously, "Where is the fish... the fish...?"

"There, I saw two such long ones."

After sweeping Zhou Baoyu's gesture to draw a length of more than one foot, Qin Fang ran to the puddle and searched anxiously.

Qin Fang didn't see the imaginary fish at first glance, so she squatted by the puddle and waited.

After more than ten seconds, there was still no fish.

Maybe it was because Zhou Baoyu was yelling there and scared the fish, so that the fish did not dare to stand up. Qin Fang turned around and glared at Zhou Baoyu, and shouted: "What are you screaming for? Put my fish I'm scared away, so be careful and I'll ask you to accompany me."

Zhou Baoyu pursed his lips, and while Qin Fang was staring at him, he walked up to Qin Fang's side helplessly, knelt down, and waited with Qin Fang.

Firstly, Zhang Qingshan and the others felt that Zhou Baoyu's words were not credible because they hadn't finished the task at hand. After all, they didn't even see a single mouse, let alone fish.Therefore, several people were busy with their own affairs, and didn't run over to see the strangeness at the first time.However, judging from the behavior of whether they raised their heads and glanced at the past, they were still a little curious, or in other words, waiting for the final confirmation with more expectations.

After about 1 minute, Qin Fang suddenly jumped up, pointed at the water, turned around excitedly and shouted to everyone: "Fish! There are really fish! Come and see, there are really fish...Brother-in-law, Come quickly and help me catch fish... Hurry up!"

Zhou Baoyu on the side also shouted excitedly: "This is definitely the third fish, it's a little smaller than the two I saw earlier."

Zhang Qingshan just finished cutting the shredded meat, looked up at even a very excited snack guy, put the bayonet back into the scabbard, and replied to them, "Okay! I'll come right away." Then he bowed his head and faced the fire Zhou Ping, who was puffing, said with a smile: "Old Zhou, you are busy first, I will check the situation."

Zhou Ping straightened up, nodded to Zhang Qingshan with a smile, and said, "Go. If there are fish, catch two and make soup. It will not only be delicious, but also very nourishing..." Zhou Ping couldn't help but smack his mouth and lick it. He lowered his lips, swallowed his saliva, and seeing Zhang Qingshan looking over with a smile, he felt that it was a bit shameful for him to be so greedy just now, so he laughed and scolded: "Damn, I can't remember when was the last time I ate fish? But , but the delicacy has been missed."

"Okay! When we catch it, let's cook a pot of fish soup." Zhang Qingshan laughed and patted Next Zhou Ping's shoulder, then turned his head to Peng Bing and Wu Shaohong and said with a smile: "You two help Lao Zhou, I'll go Catch fish for you to nourish your body."

"Okay! Better catch more."

It seems that everyone's request for a different taste is very strong!However, thinking about the deliciousness of the fish soup, Zhang Qingshan also swallowed his saliva.

Touching the back of his head in embarrassment, he walked quickly to the puddle...
