The beacon of youth

The movements of the bandits made the two top commanders of the hunting troops extremely happy. Commander Luo Yuanfa said excitedly, "Old Chen, our hard work for so many days has paid off. The bandits are being chased by us."

"Commander, comrades have worked too hard. Our tens of thousands of troops march tens of kilometers on foot every day, competing with the bandits' horseshoes with their legs. Now the soldiers have many blood blisters on their feet. When I walked, the blood blisters burst and I felt pain, and the blood stained my shoes red."

"Well, our soldiers are all good. Tell the troops that we all know the difficulties of our comrades, but now is not the time to rest. We need our comrades to grit their teeth and carry out large-scale encirclement operations. It took a while to get results."

Of course, Commander Luo couldn't say too much about the specific results. The secrecy policy had long been rooted in the old commander's mind.

"Send a report to the Independent Brigade that the bandits have been chased into the desert by our hunting forces, and everything is going according to the original plan."

The radio wave was sent out in an instant, what was the independent brigade doing after receiving the telegram?

They were resting, they were doing what Usman and the big and small bandits wanted to do, and they spent a few days comfortably in the bandit's lair, Hongliuxia Ranch.

After fighting all the way, from the northwest to Xinjiang, marching, fighting, and training troops, I am used to hard days, and I am not used to the sudden leisure. According to the order of the brigade commander, the cooking teams at all levels are thinking of ways to increase nutrition for the troops. Every meal is full of oil.

The soldiers said strange things one after another: "Damn it, I have never felt so comfortable when I grow up so big. If I don't train, I can eat meat every time. This is a life for gods."

The other continued: "Hey, are you a bit quick-witted? We have captured a lot of bandit wives. Do you want to report to the brigade commander and the political commissar? Get you a good-looking one to come and be your wife."

"Using a bandit's wife as a wife? We don't have that habit yet. Our brigade commander said that if we want to marry a wife, we should choose a girl from a good family as a wife. This is the right way."

The young man, after a few full meals and a good night's sleep, his physical strength has returned to its peak state. After a few days of rest, the independent brigade's physical strength and energy have reached a peak state.The so-called everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.

The comfortable days had not passed for a few days. As soon as the telegram arrived, the Independent Brigade entered a state of intense combat readiness, and all the soldiers who had enough food and drink returned to the various fortifications that were well concealed.

Trenches, traffic trenches, firing positions for various light and heavy machine guns and mortars.Even those big tanks and cars were camouflaged by the soldiers, and it was impossible to tell that there were tens of thousands of troops ambushing here from a little further away.

Li Yong also gave an order.In order to ensure that the hidden forces are not exposed.It is also necessary to strengthen the control of the family members of the captured bandits and prevent them from reporting to the bandits who are about to return. This is a big issue related to the overall situation, so it must be implemented carefully.

There are many unstable factors among the 10,000+ retired old bandits and bandit family members, as well as those teenagers and half-old children.Any mistakes in one link may affect the overall situation. For this reason, Li Yong, the brigade commander, also issued a separate order to search all the bandit prisoners and their families.Confiscate all items that threaten the concealment of the troops, especially guns and weapons, which are the key search targets.

With the previous actions as the basis, all these captives who used to be very tempered were honestly inspected, and none of them made trouble. Just like Lao Yang, the deputy battalion commander of the supply camp, said, he behaved like a grandson.

That's right, when a grandson has to be enlightened, he has to be inspected like a sheep, not to mention, it is really rewarding after a big search, a lot of all kinds of knives were found, and a few were found. The old bandit's stash of guns.

Li Yong was a little surprised. He had already searched several times, but he did not expect that there were still fish that slipped through the net. A few guns seemed to be nothing, but at critical times, they might cause serious problems. For example, when bandits approached, only these few A few sneaky shots from the guy will reveal the true intentions of the troops.

The solution is very simple. Li Yong ordered the soldiers in charge of the search to take out the old bandits who had hidden guns, and shoot them. No, they can’t be shot. The sound of the guns might expose the target. Push them all out. Cut off the head with a saber, and then show the severed heads one by one among the bandits and captives, and show them with blood dripping like that.

The method is a bit cruel, but it works. During the war, everything must be subject to the needs of the war. Wang Chengde, the political commissar, did not express any objection to Li Yong's approach.

The problem of hiding guns is solved, but what about knives?Most of these captives who carried all kinds of knives did not want to rebel. Knives were just a necessity in their lives, including many half-sized men who wore knives on their bodies.

The prisoners who were found to have knives were terrified. Those teenage boys who used to look at the soldiers with hostile eyes were also terrified. Kill them all.

Got freaked out?By the way, it is to let the family members and descendants of these bandits see the present scene in their dreams decades later, and let them surrender to the PLA from the blood. This is the effect.

Several elderly family members of the bandits trembled as if begging for mercy. They spoke in a very fast tone when they were in a hurry, and with their unique accent, the soldiers in charge of the search couldn't understand them at all. Hiring a translator is the solution to the problem.

The soldiers asked Li Yong how to deal with it, and whether these guys with knives dragged them out and chopped off their heads as they did just now.

The soldiers asked the question face to face. Some of the prisoners who could understand Chinese fell to their knees suddenly. A family member of the bandit boldly explained:

"Master, please forgive me, please forgive me. The knives we carry are a living habit, even a necessity for eating. They are used to cut meat. Without knives, many of them don't even know how to eat, right? for rebellion."

Political commissar Wang Chengde couldn't bear it: "Dayong, I have also heard that ethnic minorities have the habit of eating with knives. They are not like us. They use chopsticks when eating. Can you accommodate me and use smaller knives?" Give it back to them."

Political commissar Wang Chengde is an old Eighth Route Army member. He was the leader of the Independent Brigade on the party committee, but Li Yong was the supreme commander during the war, so Lao Wang talked to Li Yong about this matter in a negotiating tone.

The political commissar is still too kind, but these people are different from ordinary people. The two soldiers who were stabbed to death by the captives were taken advantage of by the bandits because of careless body searches. They would be fools if they made the same mistake a second time. .

Give them back the knife?Li Yong smiled coldly, and shouted at the group of captives a few times: "Listen to me, I have also heard about your living habits. There is a political commissar to intercede for you, so there is no need to cut off your heads. I will give you everything Everyone is given a pair of chopsticks, and they will use them for eating in the future. Whoever dares to carry a knife on his person will be wiped out as soon as he finds it, do you understand?"

It was the family member of the bandit who knew Chinese that stood up: "Thank you, Commander, for not killing me. I don't dare to bring a knife anymore. We will also use chopsticks when we eat in the future."

"What a simple question, what are you using your meager brains for? Pull out those with guns and chop off their heads. Give those with knives a chance. Once again, you will find that you have chopped off your head and sent you chopsticks for eating. That's all. Do you still come to me for instructions every time? Stupid." Li Yong gave a few words to the platoon leaders in charge of the search, and then dropped his ass and left.

"Dayong, what can I say about you? You give the prisoners chopsticks. You can't learn these chopsticks in a day or two. Now the prisoners will have fun eating." Political commissar Wang Chengde muttered beside him.

Li Yong laughed: "Old Wang, what are the fucking habits of life? The so-called habits are habitually acquired by living people. They are habitual problems. It would be nice to give them a bite to eat. A big pit buried them all alive, so as to avoid future troubles for the local government. Later, they didn't do it because they were afraid of making mistakes. What's wrong with eating with chopsticks? Give them a set time, and they must finish eating within a certain period of time. Just give it 10 minutes, and you will be hungry if you can’t finish it. You can learn it in a few days.”

What Li Yong said shocked Wang Chengde again. It turned out that Dayong still wanted to bury the captive alive, which was a bit too cruel.

After one method, 10,000+ captives were brought under control. At this moment, Usman was trekking in the desert with [-] to [-] bandits.

After going around several big circles in a row, at least they got rid of the large troops of the People's Liberation Army, and then took a chance to sneak into the desert, and ran for dozens of kilometers. Several waves of scouts came back to report, saying that there was nothing Seeing the large troops of the People's Liberation Army following up, Wu Siman finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The communist army does not have modern means of transportation, and is not familiar with the geography and climate of the desert, so they dare not catch up casually. The leader of the bandit, Usman, is very proud of being able to occupy the base of Hongliuxia. It seems that God still favors him of.

The cavalry of 7 to [-] people stretched for more than ten kilometers, and it took a whole day to walk in the desert. At night, no one knew how far they had traveled except the thousands of direct descendants of Naus, but One thing is for sure, the People's Liberation Army has definitely not caught up yet.

This is the greatest good news. It is really difficult to live with pursuers hanging behind your buttocks.

It’s Monday again, Mr. Ba, thank you for your support, what’s next?Asking for praise, praise, praise, a bit wordy, sorry for that. (to be continued..)
