The heavens start from Changjin Lake

Chapter 349 'Tail'

Li Qingming put down his chopsticks and said, "It's still calm, how do you say that?"

Zhang Wangcai put down the chicken leg in his hand, picked up a handkerchief next to him and wiped his big greasy hands, and said, "Recently there has been a commotion again. I heard that it is a team called the Red Army, which specializes in controlling people like you and me in the village." owner of all the land."

Li Qingming paused, his eyes froze, and he pretended to be calm and asked, "The Red Army? Why haven't I heard of it?"

"These are all from gossip. Last year, the trouble was the worst. Then the White Army came, and it seemed to subside. Some time ago, when we went to the county town, we met an old acquaintance. This person was powerful in the White Army. He told me A group of Red Army emerged from our Western Hankou side, and they specialized in beating landlords. Landlords in two villages suffered disaster and were killed by the Red Army, using the same methods as last year."

Li Qingming could see that when Zhang Wangcai said these words again, his expression was obviously nervous, and he also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and asked: "Xihankou, it is a hundred and eighty miles away from here, if you can't get there, don't worry." Bar."

Zhang Wangcai said: "Brother, you can't say that. The Red Army is very tenacious. The national army suppressed it for two years, and just after a few months, it broke out again. At first, it was in Ningcheng, and now it's in Ningcheng. Xihankou, maybe it will come to our side at some point."

Seeing Li Qingming's thoughtful appearance, Zhang Wangcai said: "When the trouble comes to our side, if we rush into the village and shoot us in the head, who will cry?"

The other party mentioned this matter to him intentionally or unintentionally, Li Qingming thought for a while and asked, "Is there anything I can do, brother?"

Zhang Wangcai said: "Of course there is. Let's unite against this emerging team. Our acquaintance told us that this team depends on farmers. We just need to unite to suppress restless farmers and let them understand that in the countryside Who is God, so that even if the Red Army comes, they will not be afraid, and the peasants are afraid of us, and they dare not resist at all!"

"Brother, tell you, this person is just like a domestic animal. If you don't care about it, it will feel that you have no dignity and dare to do anything. You have to beat it, scold it, and whip it severely with the whip in your hand. They are so painful that they know they are afraid!"

"To tell you the truth, my brother has united two villages. We join forces, and with the help of our brothers from the national army, I want to see who dares to touch us!"

Li Qingming was furious. This guy actually tried to unite all the landlords to fight against the peasants. Did he know in his heart that the Red Army brought a good life to the peasants, and those who opposed the Red Army were basically enemies. The landlord in front of him was so crazily negotiating and dealing with him in front of him. The methods of the Red Army really do not take themselves seriously.

Considering his identity, he could only suppress the anger in his heart and said: "Brother, your method is really good, but I am not interested. I will go back after the transaction. There are still many things waiting for me in the village." Go do it, sorry."

After finishing speaking, he got up, and before leaving, he said: "My brother advises my brother, treat the peasants well, don't do anything wrong, and don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. Xiao Wu, let's go with our things."

Seeing Li Qingming leaving like this, Zhang Wangcai picked up the wine glass on the table and threw it on the ground in a rage, cursing with a ferocious expression: "What is he, let's respect him and call him brother, disrespect him, the landlord of a small village , we killed him directly and robbed him of his things!"

Zhang Wangcai was angry in his heart, sat on the stool, and waved to the butler next to him, "Go, ask two people to follow them, we want to see where his village is, find the location, and take the guy directly there tonight, dare to do this For us, tell him that the only one who treats us with this attitude in the world is our father, what is he, he stole his family property tonight, we will deal with him severely!"

Li Qingming was walking in the village in a hurry. A group of soldiers beside him asked him what happened. Li Qingming said: "Zhang Wangcai is trying to unite with the landlords to deal with us farmers, exploit us, and even try to scare us so that we won't resist. Yes, wishful thinking."

"What, join the landlords to deal with us!"

"It's abominable!"

"Deputy company commander, we can't let him succeed!"

"Tell the company commander after you go back, you must punish him severely!"

"Correct!"

The soldiers were furious. They never thought that this group of hateful landlords not only wanted to exploit them, but even united to suppress them. This kind of thing would never happen.

"Don't worry, I will never let this landlord go easily, and tell the company commander when I go back!"

Li Qingming took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and asked again: "By the way, has the comrade in charge of the investigation completed the task?"

"It's done. The landlord's crimes in the village have caused irreparable harm to the villagers of Laohe Village. They are full of hatred for the landlord. As long as we come, they will definitely respond positively."

A soldier responded.

"That's good. Let's discuss how to deal with them after we go back!" Li Qingming glanced at the lambs and calves, and then asked, "How are the lambs and calves? Are there any sick ones?"

"No, the landlord has a conscience. These lambs were beaten alive. The ewes conceived four of them, and they gave birth after a while."

A soldier asked curiously: "Deputy company commander, why are we buying so many lambs and calves?"

Li Qingming said: "Of course they are raised for the villagers. When these lambs and calves grow up, they can produce lambs. In the words of our company commander, what is called sustainable breeding?"

"It turns out that this is the case. Our company commander is really smart. There are many things that we can't think of."

A soldier asked again: "By the way, deputy company commander, do you know what happened to our company commander before? I only heard from my mother that the company commander's father was beaten to death by the landlord, and his mother also went crazy and disappeared. The company commander was killed by the landlord. It was sold to the county town."

Li Qingming said: "I don't know much. I heard that the company commander mentioned that he joined the Red Army, but soon encountered the encirclement and suppression of the White Army, and the team was dispersed. He also lost contact with the large army." Contact, and returned to our village, I guess the company commander was inspired by that Red Army team, so he thought of going back to our village to fight the landlords."

"So it is."

Everyone understands a little bit.

A group of soldiers, led by Li Qingming, was preparing to go home with lambs and calves. In the village, two furtive figures followed quietly. Under the leadership, prepare to continue along the mountain forest, hang behind the buttocks of the first class, and be responsible for breaking the rear.

A soldier ran over quickly, "Squad leader, there are two tails behind the butt of the first class!"

The daily training has greatly improved the military quality of the soldiers. After all, they are all farmers. If they want to quickly improve their military quality, they have to train non-stop. Xia Yuan has worked hard in this regard, except for eating , It was the training for them. After all, they had no missions, so they put a lot of effort into them, which also improved their military skills a lot.

Although they can't reach a qualified soldier, they already have a lot of military accomplishments.

In the face of emergencies, we must first report to the cadres. This is the core, and resolutely resist unauthorized actions. In this regard, Xia Yuan strongly asked the squad leaders of all platoons and squads to inform them in place. Soldiers should obey orders. The bounden duty is also Xia Yuan's tough attitude, and his improvement in this aspect is very rapid.

The front scouts found the enemy's tail and did not act without authorization, but informed the squad leader as soon as possible.

The second squad leader asked: "Are you sure there are only two people!? No one else?"

The soldier in charge of the investigation said: "It is certain that no enemy has been found in the rear."

The second squad leader asked again: "Can they carry weapons?"

The investigating soldier said: "Two guns are carried."

The second squad leader frowned, and said: "Don't act, continue to observe, and ask Wu Xiaoliu to notify the deputy company commander, so that they can be prepared."

"Yes!"

The scout left quickly, delivering orders.

The squad leader of the second squad ordered the team to stay near the road to observe whether there were any enemy troops in Laohe village. After careful observation, after confirming that there were only two tails behind the buttocks of the first squad and no other tails, he thought about what to do The two tails caught.

"We can't let them follow into the village, we must act in advance!"

The second squad leader is not stupid. When the whole village meeting was held earlier, the company commander specifically mentioned at the meeting that everything has just started, and the developed armed forces are not enough to deal with various emergencies. Once the situation in Nianping Village is exposed , the previous efforts will be in vain.

These two people followed the group as their tails, and they didn't know what to do, but it was definitely not a good thing.

"Go, tell the deputy company commander, we are ready to act and grab the tail!"

The second squad leader asked a soldier to run to the front of the group to inform the deputy company commander. Unexpectedly, the deputy company commander sent three soldiers over and told the second squad leader that he would cooperate with them to catch the two tails. It was the first operation, and the deputy company commander asked everyone to ensure their own safety. While ensuring their own safety, they quickly dispatched to catch the tail.

After listening to the information brought by the three soldiers, the second squad leader immediately assigned tasks.

"The six soldiers surrounded the front, and the others stopped behind. You must unload their guns as quickly as possible, and ask their purpose!"

"Yes!"

The second class quickly started to move, quickly catching up with the first class.

The forward speed of the first group is not fast, even relatively slow. The two tails cannot go too fast, they can only hang far away, and the distance between the two sides is maintained at a distance of 200 meters. When encountering a detour, the tail He quickened his pace, and when he encountered a straight road, his tail slowed down.

The purpose is obvious, that is, to ensure that you can follow behind the first class, but not be able to get too far behind the first class.

"Baoya, hurry up, hurry up, they're all gone."

One of the two tails looks chubby, with beards on both sides of the mouth, and the other has particularly prominent teeth, pushing the upper lip up.

"Miao Huzi, can you slow down, I'm exhausted, grandma, aren't those guys tired? After walking for so long, I don't even take a break."

Baoya tightened his grip on the gun behind him, and said out of breath.

"You're walking slowly now. If you lose it and go back to see how the master will deal with you, I will probably hang you up and beat you."

Beard cursed and cursed, secretly cursing that Baoya was a waste, if they lost it, they would have no way to explain it when they went back, but Baoya was too much of a hindrance, he gritted his teeth, and said: "Baoya, I'll follow up first, You take a rest and hurry up, don't get ink stains behind your butt, you know?"

Bao Ya sat down on the side of the road, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said: "Okay, okay, I understand, you go first, and I will follow."

Seeing the beard walking away, the buck-toothed panting, he thought that he could finally rest.

Watching Huzi disappear at the corner ahead, Baoya hurriedly got up and chased after him.

"Just at the corner ahead, prepare to act, and first control the laggard behind."

The second squad leader issued a combat order, and the soldiers around him emerged from the dense grass and rushed towards the road quickly. There were also soldiers on the mountains on both sides of the front rushing towards the road down the mountain.

Unknowingly, the buck-tooth was wiping sweat and walking forward when he suddenly heard movement from the mountain. He turned his head and saw that he was almost frightened out of his wits. Five or six figures in front of him were rushing down the mountain quickly, everyone carrying With a gun, Baoya turned his head and ran away when he saw something was wrong, and at some point behind him, five or six rushed down, rushed to the road and directly smashed the gun on his forehead.

Just as Bao Ya held the gun in his arms, the other party's cold voice floated to his ears: "Don't move! Put your hands up, or we will shoot!"

Hearing the sound, Baoya trembled all over, and quickly raised his hands up: "Forgive, forgive, all heroes, forgive, I am Zhang Wangcai's subordinate in Lao He Village, you must know my master, you caught the wrong one, you caught the wrong one. "

Baoya obviously regards these people as bandits on the mountain. Most of the bandits are related to the landlords in the village. Many bandits are even local landlords themselves. They have guns and land in their hands. Maybe they know Zhang Wangcai and will let him go a horse.

The second squad leader frowned. As a farmer, he naturally knew that the landlord and the bandits were in collusion. Even the landlord in Nianping Village colluded with a bandit on a mountain. Every year they had to send some food to each other, otherwise the landlord would let the bandit go down the mountain. Looting property food and women.

But now Nianping Village is not what it used to be. The Red Army has come, armed with its own, and defeated the landlords.

"Be honest." The second squad leader kicked Baoya, and said: "Tie it up, grab the other one, take it back and hand it over to the company commander for interrogation!"

"Yes!"

The soldier quickly stepped forward and handed in Baoya's gun, threw it to the soldiers beside him, took out the rope he carried with him from his arms, bound Baoya's hands, and was escorted by two soldiers. tie on.

After walking not far, Li Qingming was waiting in front with someone, and when he saw someone approaching, a smile appeared on his face.

The second squad leader walked over and said: "Deputy company commander, everything went well, both tails were caught."

Li Qingming said, "Take it back and hand it over to the company commander for interrogation!"

"Yes!"
