The beacon of youth

, Zhan Shi said that since he was only a soldier after the Yulin Battle, Liancheng of the Independent Regiment, he immediately understood that the soldiers of the second regiment must have just been captured. Why do you say that?After the Battle of Yulin in the entire second column, all the soldiers who joined the army from the local area were given to the independent regiment by Commander Wang, and the other troops in the column were supplemented by newly captured soldiers.

"It's not surprising. Comrade, you haven't been in the army for a long time. It's normal if you don't know. Our squad leader is right. The glory of the independent regiment is the glory of the second regiment, because the independent regiment was born of the second regiment. If the second group is the Laozi group, then our independent group is the son group

As soon as the words were finished, many soldiers from the second regiment were stunned. This independent regiment is famous for its awesome people. Not only are there many people, but also weapons are also very powerful. They fought several good battles in a row. , the heart is high, when walking normally, regardless of the cadres and soldiers, they all hold their heads up and chest out with a cowhide energy, what happened today?Put your posture so low?

Seeing the foolish looks of some soldiers, the squad leader who spoke earlier couldn't help but said: "Don't be like grandson, I will tell you today, so that you can also see for a long time that this independent regiment is really good. , but it depends on who you are with, with our second group, people from the independent group will never be good

Looking at the puzzled eyes of the soldiers around him, the old squad leader continued: "I tell you, this independent regiment is a family with our second regiment, and they were separated from our second regiment. This independent regiment was originally our regiment. The secret service company, because of the good battles, the troops developed quickly. After the Changgaoshan battle, the commander was transferred to the direct subordinate team of the column. Not long before the Yulin battle, it was upgraded to a regiment-level unit.

As soon as the old soldier finished explaining, the surrounding soldiers showed a look of sudden realization, so that's it! !No wonder the people in the independent group said that they are the son group, it really is the case.

The old squad leader continued: "I am not familiar with only two cadres above the battalion in the independent regiment. One is their commander Li, and the other is the deputy battalion commander He who sits with the driver in the cab. Those who got off were all the old people from our second regiment.

One of the two fighters of the independent regiment interjected: "Not many people are familiar with our regiment leader, but it doesn't matter. More and more people will know our regiment leader in the future. I heard from our battalion commander that even the headquarter The commander now knows that our regiment leader, the old squad leader, went on to say, "Your regiment leader Li is indeed very good. He has fought beautifully during this period of time, and his troops have developed rapidly. Without you, our second regiment would have been enough, and the battle was miserable.There are only more than 500 people in the whole regiment who can hold guns, and there are only more than 30 people left in our company, and all of them are wounded. Even our regiment leader picked up the rifle and prepared to fight the bayonet. it's time

"That battle was too tragic. Our battalion commander Sun Quanhou cried afterward. Many of his old comrades died in the Changgao Mountain battle."

Squad leader: "Sun Quanhou was the squad leader of our company's cooking squad before he joined your regiment. When your spy company was first established, our regiment leader Zhao was transferred there. I didn't expect to be your battalion commander now after more than a year. The last time I saw him, he had put on his cape gun. Hey, it has changed a lot. When Lao Sun was in our company, he was a cooking soldier without a gun. Now that he returned to the independent regiment, he was shaking

The old soldier shook his head and continued: "In the independent regiment, except for your political commissar Wang Chengde, who is the officer of the political department of the regiment, the biggest ones are Wang Huhu and Li Jiangguo. They were both in our regiment. They are cadres at the platoon level, one is the platoon leader of the infantry platoon, and the other is the platoon leader of the regimental guard platoon. Isn't that right? I have been a battalion commander for more than a year. This officer is almost like setting off a firecracker.

Seeing the old squad leader's depressed expression, the two soldiers of the independent regiment said a little funnyly: "Squad leader, you didn't come here at the beginning, if you came here, you might be the battalion commander now, at least a deputy battalion commander, I still listen Our regiment leader said that we don’t have enough people, and the troops need to be expanded. Why don’t you apply to the leader and transfer them here?

I heard a soldier here answering the question: "Isn't there enough people? How much is enough? Your independent regiment now has more than 4000 people. Is it enough to have as many as the two regiments?"

"How many people can be counted is not something the two of us know, and we don't worry about it, anyway, our regiment leader said that the army will expand

Squad leader: "Let's not talk about those useless ones, Xiao Shibei battalion commander or battalion commander, I didn't go there. It's not embarrassing to apply to the commander after seeing that you are living a good life. People will say what did you do back then?" Go? We don't have the life to be the battalion commander, but to be honest, your independent regiment is really good enough, the wings are hard

Amidst the soldiers' discussions, the twenty cars were getting closer and closer to the Yellow River Yumen Yijiuqian.The days of February and .The north wind blows.It still carries the "old" four small snowflakes, and the north wind carrying snow particles is also called Baimaofeng in the north. This Baimaofeng can freeze people to death.

The Yellow River was completely frozen, and the soldiers from the engineer battalion of the column had already arrived at the ferry and were measuring whether the cars could pass through smoothly. Some soldiers got some straw from nowhere.Spreading on frozen ice.

He Cuihua hurriedly asked the soldiers of the engineering battalion why they were spreading straw on the ice.A soldier replied that their leader ordered him to do it, and he heard that there was a car coming, and he was afraid that the wheels of the car would slip on the ice.

He Cuihua approached the commander of the engineering battalion and told him not to spread straw on the ice. There are still many troops behind, so it would be nice to keep the straw to feed the animals.Just throw some sand and dirt on the ice, the effect is better than straw, the most important thing now is whether the ice can withstand the pressure of the car.

I wrote here to make a little digression. In the south of the year, there was heavy snow and freezing rain. There was a thin layer of ice on many roads. Cars slipped and slipped. I saw thousands of traffic jams in the news. I really had no choice but to dispatch. Soldiers in the army went to shave ice on the road and gnawed it bit by bit, but how to shave thousands of kilometers of high road?Even after shaving, the effect is not good. You just shave it the night before, and the next day the temperature rises and melts a little bit, and it freezes at night and there is another layer of ice. I don’t know how the effect of shaving ice was, but I guess it’s a waste of wax for a blind man to light a lamp. .

China is a big country, with both the south and the north. In the north, there is heavy snow and freezing rain every year. So the ordinary people in the north will have a hard time?No more cars on the road?In fact, it is very easy to solve this problem. You can tie the cars with anti-skid chains and throw some soil and sand on the road to solve the problem. If you catch up with the sun, you can throw more power plant waste fly ash. It’s dark, and the ice melts as soon as the sun shines. It’s as simple as that. You see, the southerners are anxious. If you don’t understand, just ask. I really don’t understand that you can still ask for help from the northeast. I really don’t know what they do Thought.

There is also the problem of high-voltage lines. There are many high-voltage lines that need to be repaired, but there is a layer of ice on the iron tower, which slipped up and down. The news said that a repair team fell to death several times in a row, and the remaining workers had to keep going.Seeing this, I feel that our Chinese workers are the best workers in the world, but there is still a problem with the method. To go up the iron tower and the electric pole, you have to wear foot buttons. The foot buttons are made of iron. Once the iron hits ice, it will definitely If it is going to slip, it is difficult for you not to fall off, and the problem is easy to solve. You can wrap the foot buckle around it with hemp rope. Of course, if you want to solve it completely, the best way is to attach electricity to the high-voltage iron tower. heat tracing device.It's a bit too much to say outside the topic, so let's come back.

He Cuihua asked the engineer battalion commander to find a lot of wooden boards and lay them on the place where the ice was not thick, and then let the soldiers get off the car and drive over empty.

Friends in the north know that it is very dangerous to try to cross the ice when the river freezes in winter. Of course, it is fine if the ice freezes, but it is still forbidden to put large equipment such as cars on ice. A few years ago There used to be a private minivan in my hometown, and I chose to walk on the ice in order to take a shortcut. As a result, more than 20 people in the car fell into the big ice hole together with the car and people. It was miserable.

But the folks in the north also have some simple methods. For example, if you really think about it, but you are not sure whether you can afford it, you can lay some big boards on the ice for safety. Method.

This He Cuihua led the soldiers quickly through the ferry and continued to advance to the preset position.

At this time, the Kuomintang reinforcements from Yan'an were also advancing in the wind and snow. Automobiles, artillery, mules, and infantry rolled up smoke and dust, like a wave of evil waves, and the officials sat on horseback. In the car, the soldiers either hold or carry a big gun, put their hands in their cuffs, lower their heads, don't look at anything, and just keep moving forward.

A soldier glanced at the jeep not far away, and muttered in a low voice: "***, I have to go on the road in such a horrible weather. It doesn't matter if an official rides a horse and sits in the car, but my feet They're all exhausted."

Another soldier who was walking close to him sighed: "Brother, don't complain, I'm just like you, my foot is about to break, when did the officials treat us as human beings? I heard people say, Our Army Commander Liu and Master Yan are both returning from Xi’an. They drink, dance and embrace beautiful women. You and I can only suffer from hunger and cold.

The soldier who spoke first continued: "It's a trivial matter to endure hunger, and you may lose your life at any time. When did we take advantage of the war with the Communist Army? .
