Age of Rebirth

On September [-]th, on this night, Tang Qiuli couldn't fall asleep at all. An indescribable feeling of anxiety and uneasiness haunted his heart all the time. Going out of the courtyard, I went in by myself, wandering again and again in the chilly evening wind of the autumn night in Outer Mongolia, the cigarette in my hand flickering with uncertain light and shade.

Tang Qiuli didn't go back, and it was impossible for Mei Xue to go back. Looking at her husband's figure wandering in the yard, Mei Xue suddenly felt a strong sense of uneasiness. Her husband had never been so restless before. From that day onwards, all he saw was a well-determined command, no matter how dangerous the situation was, they were all wise and calm.

Mei Xue thought for a while, looked at the table, took a sip of the untouched dinner, sighed, picked up a military windbreaker, walked over lightly, put the windbreaker on Tang Qiuli, and said softly: "Young weather is cold. , go back to the house, maybe, the situation is not as bad as imagined!"

Tang Qiuli tightened the windbreaker on her body, and said with a little bitterness: "Xue, you go to rest, don't stay with me, I am not only worried about the current situation in Outer Mongolia, but also reminds me of more, it is this special day today. My son, September [-]th, snow, is the son of the fall of the Northeast ten years ago. On this day, the Kwantung Army occupied the Northeast. My hometown is in the Northeast. I can’t calm down. Get quiet."

Mei Xue's heart ached, but she knew that at this time, it was inappropriate for anyone to disturb her, including herself. Mei Xue gently hugged her husband, turned around and went back to the house. She couldn't fall asleep at all. , looking at the man's figure, wandering alone in the evening wind. [

Another person who can't fall asleep is Shanhu. Ever since the special guards were kicked out of the yard, he has noticed Tang Qiuli's abnormal mood and vaguely guessed the reason. Why is he not like this? On the eighth day, I was in an unspeakably bad mood. Between the white mountains and the black waters, several years of bloody battles, the lives of so many good brothers were buried in the black soil of my hometown, and how many young partners were buried in the Kwantung Army in r. At gunpoint, a young life was lost.

If you calculate it carefully, at the beginning, when you followed Xiaoqiu to pull the team together, there were more than 50 people from the Tangjiawo shop. After the rest of the battle, the rest were only in the [-]s. They grew up together and went to school together. Partner, every time a partner is lost, Shanhu's heart will be in severe pain for a while after receiving the news, and later, the pain has become numb. Come to think of it, isn't he one of the survivors!

Shan Hufa comforted Tang Qiuli's heart, and he could only seriously tell the special guards that no matter what important things happened tonight, they were not allowed to disturb the teacher, and Shan Hu himself stood outside the yard and personally gave Tang Qiuli stood guard.

In the distance, there was a car light shining over, and the mountain tiger hurried forward to meet it. A few hundred meters away from the yard, it intercepted an ancient military vehicle. From the vehicle, several aviation officers jumped down and flew north. Major General Liu Cuigang, the commander of the group, was impressively among them.

Liu Cuigang and Shan Hu were very familiar. Seeing Shan Hu stopped the car, he asked in surprise, "Captain Huang? Why, you stand guard for the division commander yourself? Could it be that something happened today?"

Shan Hu shook his head and asked, "Cui Gang, do you want to see the teacher? Is there anything important?"

Liu Cuigang said carelessly: "There is nothing important. I just came to report to the division commander. My troops are already in place. I just flew over from other places to report the situation to the commander."

Shanhu said: "Cuigang, since it's not very important, don't bother the teacher. He's not in a good mood today. If there's anything else, come back tomorrow morning!"

Liu Cuigang showed a nervous expression on his face, and hurriedly asked: "Captain Huang, tell me the truth, is there a big problem in the direction of the Baikal battlefield, and the old man launched an attack? Really? Fucking death, I immediately asked the division commander to fight, the air force attacked overnight, bombed, and kept the Soviet army crying, just right, use these old "hair" soldiers to practice night bombing subjects!"

After finishing speaking, Liu Cui was about to enter the yard in a hurry, but was grabbed by Shanhu, and complained: "Everyone said that I am anxious, and you are not bad. It is not a problem of the battlefield, but because of today's day On September [-]th, it’s the kid from the Kwantung Army who occupied the Northeast ten years ago, do you understand?”

Liu Cuigang patted his forehead, suddenly realized, and said: "Yes, I shouldn't bother the division commander. Then, Captain Huang, I will come back tomorrow morning and report the situation I have scouted to the division commander!" Finished, like a gust of wind, drove away.

Although Shanhu and Liu Cuigang were talking hundreds of meters away, Tang Qiuli could hear the sound of motors coming and going. Although he didn't know who it was, it was just a certain commander on the left and right, and he didn't have the mood to ask. My mood has been filled with memories.

What hurts my heart is not only the day of September [-], but also Xiaoling, the first woman in my life. It has been almost eight years. , that empty tomb piled up with stones is just an empty tomb where a pistol was buried. Is it full of weeds? I haven’t visited it for eight years. Is the tomb full of unknown wild flowers, just like hunr as splendid?Swaying in the autumn wind?

Leaving her hometown far away, neglecting her and the unseen child in her womb, Tang Qiuli's heart was torn apart by a kind of pain, especially in the cold wind of autumn night in Outer Mongolia, this kind of pain was restricted. zoom in.

Tang Qiuli's mind was in chaos, as if his soul had already floated high in the night sky. He sat on the ground, hugged his head with his hands, his shoulders shook violently, and there was a burst of suppressed sobs. Mei Xue in the room heard her husband's suppressed cry She suddenly understood that her husband lost control of his emotions tonight because of another reason, perhaps, because of his missing love in his hometown in the Northeast.

The wind in the autumn night in Outer Mongolia is blowing harder and harder. Tang Qiuli outside and Meixue inside are both crying. One is for her lost love, the other is for her painful husband. Two feelings, same mood.

That night, those who could not fall asleep were the chief of staff Zhao Yu and the major general. Liu Hongzhang, Commander, and Ouyang Yishan, Commander of the Second Brigade, sent a report.

"Brigade Commander Liu and Brigadier Ouyang, I have already met with the division commander in Kulun. The situation around Lake Baikal is very dangerous. The Soviet army may launch a large-scale southward attack at any time, and the Selenge River area is the only one that can Blocking the defense line of the Soviet army going south, now, Commander Sun's Outer Mongolian border troops are weak and lack heavy equipment, so they are bound to suffer huge losses in the face of the Soviet attack."

"And we did not arrive at the designated location on time, which further amplified this danger. The commander is very anxious about this. Therefore, I request you to arrive at the designated assembly area of ​​the Selenge River before [-]:[-] p.m. on September [-]. If there is any difficulty in blocking the attack of the Soviet troops going south, please bring it up immediately, and the division will refer to Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe himself."[

Zhao Yuhe's telegram is suspected to have added even greater difficulties to the difficult first and second brigades. It would take three days to march with all one's strength to reach the Selange River. Now, three days If it is changed to two days, if counting from now, it is less than two days, only about 42 hours. For the flood and muddy roads, Liu Hongzhang and Ouyang Yi, who were sleepy and exhausted after three days and three nights, For the mountain traveler, it is undoubtedly an impossible task.

But Zhao Yuhe had to calm down. Facing the map of Outer Mongolia, he found that the master's worries were completely justified. From Kulun, Outer Mongolia to the north, all the way to Lake Baikal, except for the Selenge River, this road was completely lost. Outside the barrier, it is almost impossible to defend. If the Soviet army breaks through the blockade of Sun Zhenbang's troops, they will be able to approach the city of Kulun in less than three days. Once Kulun is lost, the situation in Outer Mongolia will be corrupted beyond control. the point.

Zhao Yuhe also understood why the division commander made so much fuss, and the grievances in his heart disappeared instantly. As long as Sun Zhenbang's troops blocked the Soviet army for more than 40 hours, the first and second brigades would be able to arrive. It is possible to fight back immediately and fight back.

Moreover, Zhao Yuhe's order was not based on imagination. From Kulun to the north, there is no natural obstacle caused by the heavy rain in the southern part of Outer Mongolia. The marching speed of the troops will inevitably be greatly accelerated. It was all settled in Kulun, and more than a day could be saved. He also believed that Liu Hongzhang and Ouyang Yishan could understand his feelings.

The difficulty will not be emphasized because of the harsh order, and the call back will arrive soon.

Liu Hongzhang's call back, just like his previous personality, was wild and fearful, "Chief of Staff, I understand all the calls, the first brigade has never been thrown in like this, because the speed of the march made the division commander worry and worried, the troops canceled Rest, rush to Kulun overnight, and then, proceed lightly, throw all the pots and pans in Kulun, even if you run away, you will have to buy back more than a day!"

"If you can't keep up with blocking Lao Maozi on the Selange River, in any area north of Kulun, the entire first brigade of more than 5000 soldiers can also knock the Soviet army on its back. Even the entire army Annihilation would require the Soviet army to slam on the brakes, and after paying a heavy price, it would stop there, without even being able to "touch" Cullen's edge, so as to mobilize other troops for the division commander, and buy enough time."

Liu Hongzhang's call back was full of heroic and fearless spirit. The one who dared to use a brigade of soldiers to face seven divisions of the Soviet army in a dangerous place was Liu Hongzhang, of course. , and Chu Ziye, the commander of the Fourth Brigade, also entered.
