march to victory

"Have you memorized the agreed code?"

"Remember clearly!"

"Also, let me repeat again, no matter what the situation is, you are only allowed to go ten miles deep... Once you find the enemy, try to hide as much as possible, and never exchange fire with the enemy unless it is absolutely necessary. Even if you have to exchange fire with the enemy, you'd better Whether to retreat here, of course, can also be determined according to the situation at the time..."

Zhang Qingshan looked at the mountains in the distance, and then at the thirteen warriors, feeling somewhat worried in his heart.However, Zhang Qingshan wanted to laugh when he heard Liu Bing talking to them and reminding them of various matters: Old Liu!These fighters are all carefully selected. To put it bluntly, their experience on the battlefield is probably no worse than yours. Do you have to be so verbose and remind them repeatedly?

However, Zhang Qingshan also understood that the main reason why Liu Bing was so verbose was that he knew too well the heavy responsibility on the shoulders of these thirteen people: these three people were going to explore the way, and the danger was self-evident.To put it lightly, they took their own lives to explore the way. The key point is that their success or failure is related to the safety of more than 100 people in the company.

During breakfast today, the three company commanders had a brief but very important meeting, and the discussion was to analyze whether there were enemies under the mountain.

If there is an enemy, then it can be analyzed that the main force must have attracted the attention of the enemy.

The enemy is not stupid. Since they want to defend and block, they will naturally deploy a relatively small number of troops on the edge of the water and grassland. The purpose is naturally to deal with the stragglers like Zhang Qingshan and the others who have fallen behind.However, Zhang Qingshan and the others are in the worst state at this time, whether it is physical strength, energy or equipment. If they really want to fight the enemy, the possibility of winning is far less than the possibility of being ambushed. There will be an encirclement waiting for Zhang Qingshan and the others to penetrate, at least, everyone agrees that if they are the commander of the enemy, they will do this: let Zhang Qingshan and the others in a little bit, and then take advantage of Zhang Qingshan and the others to gain a foothold on the edge of the water grass field. When they heard about it, a sudden attack would definitely make Zhang Qingshan and the others in a dilemma, at least half of them would be killed or killed, or even the entire army would be wiped out.

This is the worst case scenario everyone analyzed.And they feel that there are two other situations that they hope for: one is that the enemy is all driven away by the Central Red Army, and everyone goes to meet their comrades without incident.The probability of this situation is much smaller than the previous one, but everyone thinks it may happen. However, because they are only a team of laggards, and they estimate that there are many teams like them, so, Even if there are people from the Central Red Army, it is estimated that they will focus on taking care of the main force of the Red Second Front Army. For scattered people like them, especially those who deviate slightly from the main force, it is estimated that they will not be able to take care of them.

There is another situation that has the least chance of happening, but it is what everyone wants to see the most, that is, comrades come to greet them.However, even Peng Peng, who is the most optimistic, felt that this kind of situation was almost impossible to happen, as the same sentence said, he couldn't take care of it!

Without a radio station and without a liaison officer, Zhang Qingshan and his group of more than 100 people walked like blind people, with their eyes dimmed and they could only take one step at a time.

Similarly, neither the Central Red Army nor the main forces of the Red Second Front Army knew of Zhang Qingshan's existence. After all, there were too many stragglers in the water and grass, and there was no channel for information exchange... To put it bluntly, all stragglers, Almost always considered a sacrifice.After all, there are very few people who can walk out of the water and grass after falling behind.

This is the disadvantage of information occlusion.

Faced with such a situation, Zhang Qingshan and the others could only dispatch a small force to investigate. Therefore, the situation detected by these 13 people determined the safety of the entire company.

At the same time, these 13 people are very likely to face another situation, that is, the enemy intentionally expands the encirclement, and then deliberately let the [-] people go, waiting for the entire company to take the bait.After all, there is no idiot who can command and deploy the encirclement circle, so he naturally knows the truth of putting a small bag in a big bag.Therefore, from this aspect, these thirteen people are extremely safe.

It means the same thing: everyone is blind to the situation ahead, so they can only do their best to investigate with a gamble mentality in order to minimize possible losses.

Therefore, after discussion among the three of them, they unanimously decided to adopt the safest method: Based on visual inspection, they estimated that the distance from the big mountain is only fifteen or six miles away. is the best way.At the same time, it can also allow the soldiers to take a rest and recover some physical strength.In this way, even if something happens, everyone can at least have some physical strength to deal with it.

"And...forget it, there's no more, anyway, you all need to be smarter, just pay more attention."

After finishing speaking, Liu Bing glanced at Zhang Qingshan and took a step back, obviously wanting Zhang Qingshan to speak.

Zhang Qingshan's mood is very complicated: If it is not a last resort, he really does not want to send the security squad to take risks. After all, these people have passed the test of the Long March, and they are the best in terms of thought and experience, and they are all the seeds of revolution. , especially in this situation where they are about to walk out of the water and grassland victoriously, if something happens, even if they lose one, it will be a huge regret.

Zhang Qingshan walked from left to right, looked at Xiang Tao, saw Xiang Tao held his head high and his chest was strong, Zhang Qingshan nodded with a smile, and patted him on the shoulder.

When he came to the second person, Zhang Qingshan picked up his spear, pulled down the bolt, looked at it, and returned it to him with satisfaction... Although he did this, it was a bit like saying goodbye to the Death Squad, but Zhang Qingshan still wanted to do it.

In this way, he walked over one by one, although he didn't say a word, he told everyone with his actions and silent communication that he was very worried about their safety and hoped that they would all come back alive. Everyone sends a message: the road ahead is unpredictable and very dangerous.

"Going to investigate here is a heavy responsibility, but I hope that you can all come back to me after completing the mission. I am here and waiting for you... I will remember it all, this is an order!"

"Please rest assured that the company commander and comrades, we promise to complete the task."

Xiang Tao stood up and shouted, and the other twelve soldiers also shouted: "Please rest assured, company commander and comrades, we promise to complete the task."

Zhang Qingshan waved his hand and shouted: "Let's go!"

Seeing the thirteen soldiers of the security squad striding away, Zhang Qingshan turned around and said goodbye to those who came a few meters away: "Okay, everyone is gone, hurry up and rest."

The farewell is sad and grand, but the result is beyond everyone's expectation.All because of a detail ignored by Zhang Qingshan and others: Zhang Qingshan and the others can see the mountain, so how could the enemy not find them?

They have been prepared for a long time, and have deployed the enemy at the observation post on the top of the mountain. Not to mention using binoculars, they can also find Zhang Qingshan and the others with the naked eye. What's more, because of the rain last night, Zhang Qingshan and the others waited until the rain stopped It was already after dark, and only then did the fire start to cook, which became more conspicuous in the dark.

If the deployment of Zhang Qingshan and others is followed, then the worst situation they analyzed will absolutely be unavoidable.Fortunately, God closed the door but left a window. He didn't do everything. The appearance of a person saved Zhang Qingshan and the others. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Let's turn the time back to 2 minutes before it rained yesterday...

On the top of Wuxu Mountain, there is an open space on which two rows of houses are temporarily built. Although the houses are simple and simple, there is a bowl-shaped house 60 meters south of the two rows of houses, which is the highest point on the top of the mountain. A very strong house built of big wood looks like a bridgehead... There is a platoon stationed on the top of the mountain, and that strong house is a lookout post.

Guan Yumin was lying on the wooden bed in the lookout station, with his eyes closed, as if he was asleep, but he was very anxious inside: Two days ago, he received news that another force from the Red Army (the main force of the Second Red Army) came from Baili Passed safely and smoothly.

He was very happy about this news, and he also thought it was normal: the reason for his happiness was that he was a lost Red Army soldier who followed the Communist Party a few years ago. I had to wander around and inquire about the news of the Red Army by the way.He finally found out, but he was injured by a horse bandit on the way, and then he was arrested by the reactionaries.

So, while recuperating from his injuries, he served as a soldier in the local security regiment of the Kuomintang. On the surface, he muddled along, but in his heart he paid close attention to the news of the revolutionary team led by Mao Zedong.

God pays off!Half a year ago, he finally met a comrade-in-arms from that year, and got in touch with the organization through him.Immediately, the party organization arranged for him to continue lurking and other work.

Here comes his positivity.

Because of his combat experience, good marksmanship, and eloquence, he was soon promoted to deputy platoon leader and squad leader.

And he felt that the reason why the main force of the Second Red Army passed through normally was that the Central Red Army had already opened up that area in order to meet the main force of the Second Red Army.

At the same time, he was secretly praying that no laggard comrades would pass by him.Because although there is only one platoon of troops deployed on the top of Wuxu Mountain where he is located, there is a security regiment around Wuxu Mountain, and there is a regular regiment of the Kuomintang reactionaries waiting seven or eight miles behind Wuxu Mountain. with.If any comrades appear here, they will definitely be caught in the mouth of a tiger.

But the question is, what should I do if such a situation really happens?

After thinking and thinking, he finally made up his mind: If only one or two comrades appear, he should continue to lurk.It's not that he doesn't rescue, but that he has no way to rescue him, or he won't wait for him to have time to rescue them. These comrades won't even have room to resist, and they will be shot to death randomly, let alone Give him time to rescue.

Having been a soldier here for so long, he is very familiar with the tricks of the Kuomintang, especially the local security regiment: as long as the Red Army is discovered, the regular army of the Kuomintang reactionaries may be left alive. Kill again.But the security group I belong to now is a different matter. They will definitely kill people immediately in order to reward money, especially if the other party has a gun, and they are afraid of death and want to save their own lives first. He would shoot from a distance, and even if he was exposed and rescued, it would only add one more corpse... Although this statement is cruel, it is true and it is also a difficult choice.

If there are hundreds of people, then you have to rescue yourself, and you can't take care of other tasks-the point is that when the number of the Red Army is large, it will have resistance, so it will give him the time and time needed for rescue. Chance.

If you want to rescue, the best way is to notify or warn in advance, so that comrades can stay far away...

Just when he closed his eyes and pondered, suddenly!

"Squad leader, come and see, there seems to be someone over there."
