Chapter 80 The greatest power in the world

Li Yuda is a real winner, so he should be turned off.But who knows, Lan Xiangyu was abducted by the young son of the mayor's family and eloped.

This is a normal reaction: beautiful women love pretty!

Li Yuda grew up with five big and three rough, an absolute big boss, and led troops to fight for a long time. Even if there is a hometown where this little wife can be housed, Lan Xiangyu is destined to keep the vacant house alone.On the other hand, the young son of the mayor's family is suave and suave, he is also a man of culture, and is a leading wealthy family in the local area. Regardless of whether it is an elopement now-or a rich and chic elopement, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is traveling.But as long as this foreign group withdraws, her good days will come.It is clear at a glance which is more important.

For Li Yuda, this was a great shame and humiliation: the invitation was sent out, the banquet was all set, but the bride eloped with someone.How could such a dignified captain, the commander of a battalion, endure such humiliation and swallow such a useless mouth.

Therefore, Li Yuda immediately sent the main force of the battalion to the mayor's house, leaving only one company in Niulanba.But it's a pity to throw away the prepared banquet—it's rare for a soldier to have a good banquet.As soon as Li Yuda led the people away, the company immediately started to eat. This is why when Zhang Qingshan and others arrived here, they saw the enemy on the opposite side throwing a feast, eating and drinking.

(Taking the army as the foundation of one’s own family is the root of warlords. Treating war as a trifle, but disregarding it for personal interests, seems really weird today, but at the time, it was a normal thing thing.)

For this kind of anecdote, everyone couldn't stop laughing, but they couldn't laugh out loud, and everyone endured it very hard.On the contrary, Niu Xiaohua, the female general, kept saying "Hey! Hey!"

Hu Yingze couldn't help but stare at the surroundings, and deliberately joked seriously: "Comrades, we must try our best to capture this Li Yuda alive. I want to see for myself how horrible this tragic protagonist looks, so that the wives who snatch it can't bear it." I couldn't help but elope with someone."

Everyone squatted on the ground and shook their shoulders vigorously, barely holding back their laughter.

After a while, Niu Yingwu held back his smile and said, "We received an order from our superiors, asking us to fully cooperate with the main force and obey unconditionally. For this reason, we have also made some arrangements."

I have to say that with the support of the locals, the assault company had a pleasant surprise: the guerrillas in Niulan town had a total of 47 comrades. It doesn't count if it comes out, and the deployment was made early.The most important thing is that the guerrillas in Niulan Town were ready to cross the river for the assault company at a place called Daozhaoya five or six miles downstream from here.And their instructor, Comrade Luo Dachun, personally led ten comrades last night, stationed on the top of the mountain opposite the river, and provided a safety guarantee for the surprise crossing of the river.

"The enemy didn't send anyone to patrol along the river?" There was no time to waste, and everyone set off immediately, but Zhang Qingshan still had some doubts in his heart, so he followed Niu Yingwu all the way, asking questions as he walked.

"Yes! The enemy will send a squad to patrol up and down the river every morning." Niu Yingwu took a sip of water, wiped his mouth, and said confidently as he strode along the path: "You can patrol downstream on the other side of the river." Enemies don't care about cutting the cliff at all."

After pondering for a while, he added: "Even if they go up to Daozhaoya, they will not go to the edge of the cliff to check the situation, at most they will take a detour along the path."

"why?"

"These soldiers are good at bullying the common people, but they don't have the determination to endure that hardship... I can't tell the specifics for a while, but when you get to the place, you will know it at a glance."

So far, Zhang Qingshan is not easy to ask.

The assault company marched all the way, and when they came to the opposite side of the river where the knife cut the cliff, it was already dark.

In order to welcome the main force, the comrades of the guerrilla team in Niulan Town put in a lot of effort, made sufficient preparations, and considered comprehensively: not only did they hide five sailboats and a large boat in the woods more than 20 meters away from the river bank, Also deliberately considering that the assault company came from afar and it was inconvenient to eat, so they deliberately boiled water with charcoal for cooking early.

Taking advantage of eating time, Zhang Qingshan and others took bowls and came to the edge of the forest to observe the surrounding terrain while eating.

Even though the night was shrouded in darkness, the surface of the river was hazy, and it looked a bit cold under the cold moon, but the geographical environment on the other side still surprised everyone.Zhang Qingshan couldn't help but glanced at Niu Yingwu, thinking in his heart: No wonder you can tell at a glance when you speak here, your feelings, the terrain on the other side is really reassuring.

The terrain on the opposite bank is very simple: as far as the eye can see, there is a white mist, all of which are steep cliffs.The highest place is 80 meters, and the lowest place is 40 meters.

"Leaders, the place we are going to climb is right there, about 50 meters high... Comrades have surveyed it. The place looks steep, but in fact there are many raised stones in the middle, and the cliff here is relatively the highest. It is dry and easy to climb. Moreover, Lao Luo led people to prepare five thick ropes on the opposite side, which is enough to ensure everyone's safety when climbing." Niu Yingwu pointed to the opposite bank [-] meters downstream with his chopsticks.

"Old Niu, I don't know anything about the situation in the water, but I have a doubt in my heart. If you ask me, you are not allowed to laugh at me." Hu Yingze is worthy of being a political cadre, with a sharp mouth, and he is very familiar with Niu Yingwu during the journey. Even the address has changed from Comrade Niu Yingwu to Lao Niu.

"Old Hu, no one is perfect. No one can know everything. Besides, we are all revolutionary comrades. If you have something to say about your own people, just say it."

Zhang Qingshan and Peng Peng secretly looked at each other: This Niu Yingwu didn't seem to talk much all the way, and he thought he was an introverted person, but he didn't expect that he talked so much with acquaintances and understood each other so well.It seems that this is also Lao Hu's ability.

"Why don't you row the boat directly to the other side instead of going downstream?"

"It takes a lot of effort to row a boat on this river. Only when you float and row along the current can you use the power of the current to row across. Therefore, you can only set the place where the rope is placed downstream on the opposite bank." Speaking of this, Niu Yingwu thought What, he said: "By the way, when the brothers row the boat over and come back, everyone has to wait a hundred meters below. The boat is pulled here before people can be sent there again."

"No wonder my teacher often said that the power of the common people is the greatest power in the world, and it is inexhaustible... Thank you so much, without your support, we might be in big trouble."

Zhang Qingshan rolled his eyes at Hu Yingze: I have heard you mutter more than once after drinking that you often skip classes when you are studying, so your teacher hardly pays attention to you. He will tell you that the greatest power in the world is The power of the common people?

"We are all revolutionary comrades, this is what we should do."

Zhang Qingshan, however, considered it from a military point of view, holding his chopsticks, pointed to the top of the mountain on the opposite bank and asked: "Comrade Yingwu, you said earlier that even if the enemy's patrol team reached the top of the other bank, they would not be willing to patrol around the edge... Now you can talk about it." Is there a reason?"

"First, the enemy's strength is too small to control the entire line of defense along the river. Second, the terrain here is steep, and the enemy thinks that we cannot climb, so they are paralyzed, but they don't know that we can put a rope down from above. Third, finally The main thing is that there is a forest of thorns on the top of the mountain on the other side. The enemy has suffered so much, even if they are asked to cut the thorns to the side for inspection, they will only perfunctory..."

Niu Xiaohua on the side took up the topic with a smile: "Our locals hate the enemy for harming the people and are unwilling to be their guide. On the top of the mountain on the other side, there are not only many thorns, but also traps and big pits for catching wild animals in many places. Some places look more secure, but in fact the bottom is empty. If you step on it, you can definitely fall into the river. If you don’t have local people who are familiar with this place to lead you, you will definitely kill people every step of the way. The enemy just arrived At that time, I really wanted to cut down the whole thorn forest, but one unlucky ghost accidentally stepped on the empty leaf, fell off and died. Since then, the enemy has never patrolled the edge again... ... We have fought guerrilla attacks a few times, relying on this thorny forest to escape the enemy's pursuit."

Zhang Qingshan nodded, because he knew this kind of situation, just like what his father taught him when he was a child: In the deep mountains and old forests, not only have to deal with wild animals and natural means such as muddy ponds (swamps), but also have to deal with other hunters The organ trap set.Some of them will leave a mark next to the organ trap to remind humans, but some malicious ones will be placed there directly, making it impossible for you to guard against them.Therefore, if ordinary people enter the deep mountains and old forests without the guidance of hunters, it will be very unfortunate.It is indeed somewhat similar to the situation here, and it is no wonder that the two of them are so confident.

Next, everyone began to discuss how to cross the river: the river here is smooth, but the sailboats are too small. To be on the safe side, each sailboat can only accommodate three people except the oarsman.And that big boat has a great effect, it can take fifteen to twenty people at a time, and there is no worry of capsizing in the river waves. In this way, thirty to 20 people can be transported at one time, including more than 35 guerrillas here. People, it only takes five trips in total.

But the question is, who were the first to cross the river?

Everyone knows that the later it is, the safer it is, and the earlier it is, the more dangerous it is, because no one can guarantee that if the enemy hits his head against the wall, he must go to the edge of the cliff to check and patrol. At that time, once a battle occurs, the gunfire will definitely Alarm more enemies coming, and those who passed earlier are in danger.

But at this time, the soldiers ignored the danger, and the platoon leaders asked for a fight one after another, clamoring for their own platoon to pass first.On the other side, there must be someone who can make up his mind. For this reason, even the three main leaders of the assault company had a dispute, and they insisted on leading their own people to go there first.

It was finally decided: Peng Peng and Niu Yingwu led Qi Zixuan's third row to pass first, Zhang Qingshan was second, and Hu Yingze and the remaining comrades of the guerrillas crossed the river last.

After eating and drinking, the comrades in the third row boarded the boat and rowed to the opposite bank.

Sure enough, as Niu Yingwu said, no matter the size of the boat or the small boat, it will slowly approach the knife-cut cliff in an arc along the current.

As the ship got closer, no matter whether it was on the ship or on the shore, everyone's hearts were raised...
