march to victory

"Since everyone is arguing about the horse, it means that there is a disagreement on this matter, and we must unify our thinking..."

Both of them suppressed their anger. At this time, when Zhang Qingshan talked about this matter again, everyone felt a little bit of praise in their hearts: let out the anger first, and then solve the problem, then the pressure encountered will be much less.

"Old Zhou, you are firmly against killing horses, right?"

Zhou Ping quickly stood up and said, "I'm not opposed to killing horses. I also agree with killing horses at critical moments. But the problem now is that it's only a few days before we can walk out of the water and grassland. Can't everyone bear it..."

Zhou Ping babbled for seven or eight minutes, Zhang Qingshan listened patiently, even the smile on his face did not change at all, until Zhou Ping finished speaking, he looked at Peng Peng: "Old Peng, you firmly believe that you are here At critical moments, you can kill horses to satisfy your hunger, right?"

"Yes!" Peng Peng was more impulsive than Zhou Ping, and although he didn't stand up, his tone was full of anger: "Although everyone agrees with the statement that 'horse is a matter of one's own comrade-in-arms', I also think so. But the problem is, after all, horses are horses, not the same kind, and when the critical moment comes, everyone is so hungry that they can’t walk, so why don’t we want everyone to eat people instead of horses?”

"Okay, Lao Peng, now everyone is discussing, not fighting, you should be less angry."

To be honest, Zhang Qingshan was a little bit a little bit agitated by Peng Peng's impulsive temperament, but Lao Peng was his deputy after all, and he had just learned of his cousin's sacrifice, so it was inevitable that he would be in a bad mood, so, he had to Criticize him without solemnity, but don't educate him much.

"Look, this is the downside of lack of communication. Once things are settled, it will be easier to handle." Zhang Qingshan said to everyone with a smile: "Everyone agrees with the idea that 'at the critical moment, you can kill horses to satisfy your hunger'. This is the foundation...Old Zhou, don't open your mouth, everyone knows what you are going to say, and I agree with your point of view. However, have you ever thought about it? Now everyone is just guessing that they will be able to walk out of the water and grass in a few days, but guessing is guessing, after all It's not reality. In case of any unexpected situation, I personally think that it should be killed."

"that is!"

"Lao Peng, don't say that. There is some truth in what Lao Zhou said. After all, horses are rare, and Lao Zhou took care of them along the way. It is inevitable to have feelings for those horses. Moreover, only It’s been a few days, let’s carry forward the spirit of hard work, plain living, hard work and hard work, and save those few horses for Lao Zhou, it’s also right.”

After playing [-] boards each, Zhang Qingshan said with a smile: "Okay, everyone has reached a consensus on this point, and it is considered to be passed. Do you have any different opinions on this?"

Seeing that everyone nodded, Zhang Qingshan smiled and said: "Then let's move on to the next point, which is about firewood."

"Without firewood, everyone can't cook cooked food, let alone boil water. Without boiled water to drink, just drink the raw water here, hey! Hey! I'm afraid it won't take two days, and everyone will have to pay for it here. But the problem Yes, everyone knows that as we get deeper and deeper into the water and grassland, the firewood and cow dung for cooking are becoming less and less. Now, we have to use our brains more and think about how to do it firewood?"

Speaking of this, Zhang Qingshan pondered for a while, and added: "Or, think about it, everyone, what else can light a fire."

Everyone looks at me, I look at you, I don’t know how to solve this problem for a while... In everyone’s long-term thinking of stockholders, the things that can burn fire are nothing more than firewood and dried cow dung. There are none of these things in this vast water and grass land, which is the old saying "a clever woman can't cook without rice".

After tracking, Liu Bing frowned and said: "This is indeed a big problem. Moreover, there is nothing to make fire here. Even if we have the heart, we don't have the ability to conjure firewood."

Everyone smiled wryly.

After a while, Lao Wang said: "How about we just use our clothes and trousers to light the fire when the critical moment comes...?"

After finishing speaking, seeing everyone looking at them with strange eyes, Lao Wang straightened his neck and shouted: "What are you doing looking at me like that? I'm telling you this matter very seriously. Think about it, we more than 100 people , Clothes and pants are piled up, you can definitely cook a meal and drink a meal of water."

Liu Bing smiled wryly, shook his head helplessly, and said to Pharaoh angrily: "But the problem is, Pharaoh, it's only a few days before he can walk out of the water and grass field. Everyone burned their clothes and pants, and you let everyone shine." Going to meet people with your ass?"

"That's right! Old Wang, our Red Army can't afford to lose face like this."

"That's not necessarily the case. I think Lao Wang's idea has merit." As soon as Peng Peng's voice fell, Zhou Ping said with a bit of sarcasm: "After all, human life is greater than heaven! At critical moments, shame is shame, as long as comrades They can all walk out of the water and grass field one by one, with bare buttocks...Old Peng, don't look at me like that, I'm talking about clothes, not horses, and I'm not targeting you. I mean, it's a big deal , when the time comes, I will come back with bare buttocks looking for clothes. Anyway, I think that as long as it is for the sake of the lives of comrades, no matter how weird the idea is, it is a good idea. Anyway, I plan to fight it out... Big deal, just mention it, I will carry it out. I still don’t believe it, but if I don’t want this face, I can still let difficulties stump me?”

Zhou Ping's words revealed a bit of arrogance, but also a bit of rascal.But no matter what, he took the initiative to stand up and implement it. You are really embarrassed to laugh at him... Even Peng Peng laughed—this is the quality that a Red Army soldier should have: for business, everyone slaps the table and stares , You can even find a place where there is no one to fight, but one yard counts for one yard, and in private, we are still friends.It takes a great deal of self-control and selflessness though.

For a moment, everyone looked at Zhou Ping with strange eyes.

"Everyone, don't laugh, I personally think that what Lao Wang and Lao Zhou said has merit." Seeing that everyone was silent, Zhang Qingshan could only speak: "I personally think that, on the premise of not violating party, government and military regulations, , Personal situation, it really depends on the situation. Take the matter of burning clothes and trousers as an example, it is really a good way when it comes to that time, at least, in this way, everyone can persist for a day or two... ...Of course, I also think that things should not be overdone, at least, it is necessary for everyone to keep a pair of pants to cover up their shame..."

Speaking of this, Zhang Qingshan couldn't help laughing, pointed at Zhou Ping and said: "At least, we should also leave a pair of pants for our Comrade Zhou Ping, so that he doesn't have to go naked to find clothes for everyone, You don't need to scare others, and you won't be beaten out as a hooligan. Ha! Ha..."

As he was talking, Zhang Qingshan himself couldn't help laughing, and everyone else was already laughing, except Zhou Ping, who glared at Zhang Qingshan angrily and kept rolling his eyes.

Laughter is a laugh, but the business still has to be resolved.

But then, everyone was unable to speak, because the real environment made them do not know how to solve the firewood problem.

Seeing that this problem could not be solved, Peng Peng was a little annoyed and wanted to smoke, so he said to Zhang Qingshan: "Director, come here, give me a cigarette."

"Get lost! Do you want cigarettes? I want one." Zhang Qingshan hesitated, and then pretended to be furious and said, "From now on, you are the deputy director of the factory. From now on, if comrades want to smoke, they can just ask you for it."

"Then I have to have cigarettes!" Peng Peng yelled aggrievedly, then simply stretched out his hand and said, "Stop rambling, get one soon..."

"You want to smoke so viciously, really, I really don't know whether you think of me as a company commander, or as a local tyrant and bad boy, this fight against landlords is too unkind..."

Zhang Qingshan took out a cigarette while complaining, and after walking around for everyone, he took out a matchbox, and after lighting the match, several heads gathered together to light the cigarette.

Zhang Qingshan shook the lighted match slightly, then subconsciously threw it on the ground, but as soon as he threw it, he remembered that he must stamp it out, so as not to cause the house to burn - he did this completely subconsciously, you know, this is a water grass field, It's strange that it can cause a fire.

Quickly looked down, and was about to step on it by the way, but was momentarily stunned.

I saw that little bit of "Mars" happened to fall on a withered leaf, and there were a little sparks on the withered leaf.

As if the sparks had invaded, they quickly spread across the leaves, leaving behind a piece of ashes...

Zhang Qingshan was stunned for ten seconds, then he slapped his thigh suddenly, jumped up, and shouted in surprise: "Yes!"

Everyone was smoking and thinking hard. In an extremely quiet environment, Zhang Qingshan interrupted them so suddenly, and they all looked up at him in astonishment.

"Old Zhang, you are so yelling that you don't look like a company commander..." Zhou Ping immediately teased Zhang Qingshan, but seeing that Zhang Qingshan didn't answer, he knew that Zhang Qingshan must have made a big discovery, and it must be a good thing.So, with some curiosity, he asked, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

Zhang Qingshan picked up the burnt dead leaf and showed it to everyone. Seeing that everyone looked at it in confusion, he said with a smile: "Look, everyone, this withered blade of grass burns at any moment. This is not the best way to start a fire." something?"

Pointing to the surroundings again, he couldn't hide the surprise in his eyes, and said with a smile: "In this vast water grassland, besides water, there are grass leaves... Ha! Ha! It's a big joke that we are still worrying about firewood while we are in the woodpile ah!"

Everyone was overjoyed: a blade of grass is indeed useless, but a pile of grass blades can burn for a while.And in this vast water and grassland, grass leaves are inexhaustible.

"Wait a minute!" Liu Bing looked at the weeds under his feet in surprise at first, but when he looked at them, he thought of something, frowned, and shouted: "But the problem is, the grass and leaves here are all raw. It doesn't burn at all!"

"Old Liu, I can see that you are a guy who has never worked." Before others opened their mouths, Zhou Ping took the lead in attacking him: "It's raw, it only takes two or three days, and you can let it dry! In addition, when the fire is lit at night , You can put the raw grass leaves by the fire to bake, and they will dry the next day. This cycle, as long as there are enough grass leaves, there will be no dry grass leaves to burn... There are so many of us, each of us will bring a handful Blades of grass, enough to make a fire for everyone."

"Hey! Makes sense!" Liu Bing smacked his lips, admitting that he had indeed made a mistake just now: "It seems that I still have a lot to learn in the future!"

Everyone laughed!
