Catch the Mountain 1985

Chapter 51 Discussing the winter siege
Braised bear paws, braised crucian carp in soy sauce, stewed roe deer meat with radish, dried tofu with hot pepper, braised pork, fried peanuts, sorghum rice, a sumptuous meal in the evening made Zhang Peng and Zhao Chunming happy It felt like I had finally returned to normal life, and as expected, both families were exhausted.

After picking up the bowls and chopsticks, the two families sat on the kang and started chatting and eating.Both Wang Xiufen and Li Cuihua urged Zhang Peng to pack up and go to Li Chunmei's house in the past two days. If it took such a long time, the two of them were already divided. Zhang Peng quickly said yes, it is true that they should go over and have a look during this time. It's so long on the mountain. I haven't been back for a long time, and it's not good to be left out in the cold for so long.

"Second son, Cui Weixing convened a meeting with the hunting team some time ago and sent people to look for you, but you were not at home either," Zhao Decai said while smoking.

"Uncle Zhao, what kind of meeting is this?" Zhang Peng asked curiously
"It is said that it is for winter siege. It is a bit difficult to come up with the indicators from above, so we have a meeting to decide what to do."

"What's the point? What's the indicator?"

"A whole fifty thousand kilograms of meat, do you think it's easy to get it?"

"Is this crazy?" After hearing this, Zhao Chunming silently calculated in his mind and exclaimed

The corner of Zhang Peng's mouth also twitched. Fifty thousand kilograms of meat. Who made this decision with a hot head? I have a plant that I want to say. I don't know if it is suitable. Zhang Peng complained silently in his heart.

"There are troubles everywhere. If the sky falls, a tall man will hold it up. Why are you so excited?" Zhao Decai scolded Zhao Chunming.
"Uncle Zhao, it's a little unreasonable to be so certain in this village. This hunting also requires luck. You will get something if you go up the mountain. Besides, the environment in winter is very harsh. If there is a heavy snow shell, the dog will be stuck in it and will not be able to get out. How can we surround ourselves? These are all real problems." Zhang Peng took the words and said
"Who says it's not, but there is good news this time. Cui Weixing has obtained a new recycling price. After disembowelment, it is 8 cents per pound. How about it? The price is pretty good, right?"

"Well, I think this price is okay. If an adult wild boar weighs 300 kilograms, that's 240 yuan, which is enough to buy two litters of good puppies." Zhang Peng said after calculation.
"Second brother, that's okay. Let's go get some when winter comes. It's no problem to get a thousand and eight pieces in one winter, right?" Zhao Chunming said excitedly
"It's not a big problem, but it won't go so smoothly. It depends on God. Once a "big smoke bubble" blows up in the middle, we can still hunt and don't stay on the mountain." Zhang Peng attacked.
The "big smoke bubble" in the Northeast is a disgrace left by God to mankind.The blizzard roared in with overwhelming force. The northwest wind blew stronger and stronger, and the heavy snowflakes screamed and rolled violently. The sky, mountains, and fields were all white, and the whole world was swallowed up by the wind and snow.

"Well, Erxiao'er is right. If you are lucky, there is no problem, but if God doesn't reward you, what will you do?" Zhao Decai said with help from the side.
"Well, I feel so dizzy no matter what," Zhao Chunming said in a low voice.

"Chunming, your dad is right. We have to consider the worst-case scenario, so we just try our best. If we see the situation changes, we should go home quickly. It doesn't matter if we don't make any money." Zhang Tiejun listened to what they were talking about. Also expressed his opinion.

"Okay, uncle, I understand. That's what I said. Just listen to it." Seeing Zhang Tiejun speak, Zhao Chunming said with a smile.
After chatting for a while, Zhao Decai talked about the latest news in the village. It was said that Pan Dasniu was seriously injured this time and came here hanging on his life. His father, Pan Xiangqian, and his mother, Li Manli, were also sad and had not smiled all day. It was said that Li Manli She believed that these two injuries were all due to outsiders, or why others were fine when going up the mountain, but her son always had accidents one after another when going up the mountain.At first Pan Xiangqian didn't believe in these things, but he couldn't stand Li Manli mumbling in his ear every day, which made him half-believing and doubtful. Then Li Manli went to blind Song Song from the nearby village to do a divination. The result of the divination was that Pan Li was guilty of Tai Sui this year, and there were evil spirits. Surrounded by stars, this is just a small disaster in the early stage, and a big disaster will come later.

Li Manli hurriedly asked how to break it. Blind Song asked Pan Li to avoid disasters at home on the [-]th day of the lunar calendar this month. As long as he could escape, everything would go smoothly in the future. If he couldn't escape, there was nothing he could do.

In this way, Li Manli followed Blind Song's instructions and bought another folded amulet from him. Then Li Manli threw down 50 yuan and left. When she got home, she quickly called Pan Xiangqian and told him what happened. He put the amulet on Pan Li again and waited for the fifteenth day of this month.

Zhang Peng also sneered after hearing this, and even blamed Pan Dasui for being too old. This blind man Song is really good at deceiving him. If he said that, wouldn't I be too old for what blind man Song said? He happened to be the one who offended me this year. This time it was a bargain. If he has a chance, let him taste what Tai Sui's critical attack feels like.

The next morning, Zhang Peng cleaned himself up at home. During this period of time in the mountains, he was out of shape. He took a shower and cut his hair. He was an energetic young man again. He was going to rest for a day and go to Li Chunmei's house tomorrow. Take a look and chat, you just have time at this time, and it can also increase the relationship between the two of you.

Zhang Peng had just finished packing at home when he heard someone calling him outside the courtyard. Zhang Peng opened the door and saw Liu Zhiyong standing at the door of the courtyard.

"Brother Zhiyong, why are you here? Stop standing outside and come inside and sit down." Zhang Peng shouted enthusiastically
"No, the captain has a meeting and we have to go there together. I just came here and I wonder if you are at home? The last time I came here, I missed it. Where is Zhao Chunming?" Liu Zhiyong waved his hand and said with a smile.

"Ah, we have been on the mountain these days. Chunming has also come back. He is at home. Brother Zhiyong, please wait a moment. I will call him." Zhang Peng jumped over the wall and called Zhao Chunming. This boy also Catching up on sleep at home.

Then the two of them put on some clothes and followed Liu Zhiyong to the village headquarters. By this time, the hunting team had gathered and they were the only ones left.

When Cui Weixing saw the two of them, he nodded slightly, and then they returned to the team and everyone stood in a row. Cui Weixing stood in front of them, glanced at all the members of the hunting team, and then said: "Everyone is here, then I Let me just say one thing, it is a cliché. I said at the last meeting that the leaders of the village attach great importance to this winter siege. Everyone must overcome difficulties and strive to exceed the completion of tasks. The village is also well prepared for this winter siege. Book Didn’t it say that the army and horses should go ahead without using food and grass? Then you can sign and claim any bullets you need. We have also released the supply to ensure that there is enough ammunition. Everything is for one goal, do you understand?"

"I know..." everyone shouted in unison
