Chapter 42 Follow-up
Zhang Qingshan, who was lying on the bed, slowly opened his eyes. The first thing that caught his eye was Zhou Baoyu sleeping beside the bed.
When he saw him, Zhang Qingshan was happy: he was still alive. Then he remembered the reason for his injury and began to worry about his comrades-in-arms' situation. He also wanted to know whether to capture the two big bandits, Zhao Wu and Zuanshanhu.
I opened my mouth and wanted to call Zhou Baoyu, but unfortunately, my voice was too weak. I didn't succeed after calling me several times. I wanted to raise my hand to touch Zhou Baoyu, but it seemed that it was only a 10-meter distance. Because Zhang Qingshan was weak, he couldn't lift his hands, which made people anxious.
Holding his breath, he suddenly reached out and touched Zhou Baoyu. I'm very successful and touched Zhou Baoyu, but pulled his own wound. Zhang Qingshan, who had not felt the pain when he woke up, pulled the wound, and suddenly, a strong sense of pain surged from his whole body to his head, instantly making Zhang Qingshan's eyes dark, and he fainted before he could say anything. Zhou Baoyu's anxious call came from his ears
At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Qingshan woke up again and saw Zhou Baoyu sitting beside the bed, using his right index finger to practice writing on his knee. Zhang Qingshan was not surprised: most of the Red Army soldiers are workers and peasants, and they are not very educated, especially those who have joined, and many of them cannot even write their own names. They usually need to train, help the people, and fight against the enemy. They can only be transformed from propaganda teams at night. So, as long as everyone has the opportunity, they will hurry up and practice every time. Zhang Qingshan himself is like this.
"Baoyu!" The voice was a little hoarse, but it was enough for Zhou Baoyu to hear it.
"Ah! Squad leader, you're awake, it's great." Zhou Baoyu looked at Zhang Qingshan with great excitement. But as he spoke, he jumped up and ran out.
I woke up, why did you run away? That's how you took care of me? Zhang Qingshan looked at Yi's back who rushed out of the door with a little depressed depression, speechless. However, when he heard Zhou Baoyu shouting, "Doctor! Doctor Zhou, our squad leader is awake, come and have a look." Zhang Qingshan smiled helplessly.
Although Dr. Zhou is very young, he is skilled in medical skills. He heard that he went to Hunan from a major hospital in Shanghai to participate in the revolution. He was a marching doctor who sent to the Third Company in the previous regiment to prevent someone from being seriously injured when the Red Army started working in Guitang Town. He examined Zhang Qingshan and said that the operation was very successful. In addition, Zhang Qingshan was very strong. I believe that it will not take long to recover. However, Zhang Qingshan should not be too tired and pulled the wound like before.
Thanks to Dr. Zhou, and after he went out, Zhang Qingshan felt a little thirsty.
"Give me some water."
Under Zhou Baoyu's service, Zhang Qingshan drank some water. Although the deadly pain came here, it was much lighter than last time. Zhang Qingshan could still bear it. In order to divert his pain, he spoke to Zhou Baoyu: "Look at how many words have you known for so hard work?"
Zhou Baoyu lowered his head a little embarrassedly, glanced at Zhang Qingshan's expression, and said softly: "I have just learned it for a while, and now I can only write my own name, and the words are not good-looking."
"Who is born with education? Isn't it all just a little bit of learning? It's okay, just study more in the future." After saying that, Zhang Qingshan felt that these words were a little familiar. Thinking about it, Captain Xiang Jiafu seemed to comfort himself like this. Time, his heart was warm and his smile became stronger.
"Baoyu, is the battle in Tiger Cave over? Have you caught two big bandits, Zhao Wu and Zunshanhu? What's the situation with your comrades?"
Faced with Zhang Qingshan's big problem, Zhou Baoyu obviously had done his homework long ago.
"Squad leader, the battle in Tiger Cave ended a few days ago"
"How many days ago?"
"Yes! After you were injured, everyone hurriedly carried you out of the hole. Dr. Zhou said that you were seriously injured and you had to have surgery immediately. Then you were in Xiatianyun Village at the foot of the mountain and you had been in a coma for two days and two nights."
"It's okay anyway, let me know carefully."
After Zhang Qingshan was seriously injured in order to protect his teammates, he aroused his teammates' anger against the bandits, but he was unable to cross the Yin River. In the end, Tiehong's army was furious and shouted to the opponent, and if he did not surrender, they would directly break the iron chain, so they would hide on the opposite side for the rest of their lives and starve them to death. Unexpectedly, there was an internal strife on the opposite side: There were too many murder cases in the hands of the Zanshanhu, and he knew that he would definitely die once he surrendered, so he refused to surrender, and wanted to hold a few of his confidants to defend themselves. However, some of his confidants did not want to die and immediately resisted. In the end, Zanshanhu was beaten to death by his subordinates, which was considered to be a retribution for evil.
After surrendering and being captured, the grenade exploded on the second level. The tiger took them to escape to the other side of the river. He did not notice Zhao Wu, but someone explained that they felt that Zhao Wu's people should follow not far behind.
Everyone searched carefully in the cave for a night, but Zhao Wu and his confidants disappeared without a trace like the steam on earth. In the end, everyone judged that Zhao Wu and his confidants should have escaped along the Yin River. Although they didn't understand what tools they used to escape in this reef-like river, they could not find people, so naturally they could not verify it. Later, some people said that they had met Zhao Wu in Sichuan, but because they could not verify it, they did not know the true or false.
As for how Zhao Wu escaped, this mystery was not solved until the early 1960s. At that time, there was a severe drought in Longshan County. The township government organized people to block the Yin River so that the Yin River water could flow out of the Tiger Cave. During the construction, someone accidentally found a small hole with natural and natural population at the top of the stone wall more than 20 meters upstream of the river beach where Zhang Qingshan was injured in the river beach. There were still some daily necessities left. Only then did he judge that Zhao Wu and his confidant should have climbed into the small hole with a soft ladder until the Red Army searched for it but escaped at night. The entrance of the small hole was like a melon. The bottom of the hole extended forward, plus the dark environment around it and other factors. Therefore, if no one guided him, even if you stood below more than ten meters and shone with a flashlight, it would not be visible.
Although Zhao Wu and his confidants were not caught in this attack on Tiger Cave, the harvest was still huge. Not only did they eliminate the largest bandits in Guitang Town, but they killed the bandits Zhuanshan Leopard, and the capture was also very rich. There were more than 30,000 kilograms of grain alone and more than 10,000 kilograms of bacon. Not only did they solve the problem of eating in the Red Three Company, but they could also solve the problem of some of the grain for the headquarters. When Zhang Qingshan and the others washed up, they heard the warm cheers that were so huge that they appeared in the fork hole in the middle. The three gunshots were warnings and threats to the bandits guarding these things. Zhang Qingshan and others were unaware of the matter and thought they had caught Zhao Wu and Zhuanshan Tiger, which caused a misunderstanding.
Of course, the Red Army also paid some price for this attack on Tiger Cave: Five and six serious injuries to the Red Army soldiers, not including the casualties of Wu Shuibao's previous fight with bandits: Ten and eighteen injuries. Among them, two commandos were killed and seriously injured. The two were mainly because they were a little careless at the time and were suddenly in trouble by the bandits on the other side of the river. In this way, it must be said that the Red Army was lucky. If it weren't for the coincidence that Wu Shuibao led people to attack Tiger Cave, the bandits took the risk of leaving the cave when they were careless, and then they were captured by the Red Army, allowing only dozens of people to escape back into the cave. Otherwise, if they really had to hit a point, the number of casualties would definitely increase exponentially. What's more, the commandos would risk using grenades to blow the second level, scaring the bandits to voluntarily surrender. It can be seen that the saying that it is easy to defend but difficult to attack in Tiger Cave makes a lot of sense.
Given that the commando performed outstandingly this time, it not only won the third-class collective merit, but also decided to formally establish the commando.
"Baoyu, help me up."
"Squad leader, you can't touch what you want now, tell me, I'll help you get it."
Zhang Qingshan's expression was a little embarrassed, which showed Zhou Baoyu's serious look in his concern. He thought for a while and whispered: "I want to go to the cottage to solve my little hands."
Zhou Baoyu bent down and took out a potty from under the bed: "Squad leader, I will help you take it, you will spread it here."
Zhang Qingshan's face finally turned red after several arguments and even threatened him. Zhou Baoyu was unmoved. In the end, he had to solve the problem in front of Zhou Baoyu. When Zhou Baoyu went out to pour out his urine, after coming back, in order to resolve the embarrassment, he had to change the topic: "Baoyu, do you have smoke? Come on."
"No, Doctor Zhou specifically told me: If you want to die early, I will just smoke you." Put the potty under the bed, Zhou Baoyu looked at Zhang Qingshan pitifully: "Squad leader, just bear with it. When your injury heals, you will smoke. Is it okay? Otherwise, I will have no shame to stay in the team."
At this moment, the door was pushed open, and Peng Peng, a red-headed fishing rod and a wooden bucket in his hand, walked in quickly.
"Ha! Ha! I heard you woke up as soon as I came back. This is really great." He put the fishing rod and wooden bucket casually, walked over quickly, and smiled and said, "If you are done with such a big favor, I can't even pay it back, wouldn't it be a loss?"
"My comrade, what do you do when you say this?"
"That won't work." Peng Peng patted his chest and said, "I will never thank you for your kindness. Brother, I remember this love here."
Zhang Qingshan was about to speak, but he saw Zhou Baoyu running to the bucket and shouted in surprise: "Brother Peng, you are so capable that you caught such a big group of fish."
Then, he grabbed the group of fish with both hands and showed it to Zhang Qingshan, weighing two pounds.
"Squad leader, when you were injured, Dr. Zhou said you were bleeding too much and you wanted to make a big replenishment, but our Red Army did not have any big replenishment items. Brother Peng patted his chest and promised that he would replenish your body well. In the past two days, Brother Peng went up the mountain to hunt and went down the river to catch fish every day, and he had harvests every day."
"Just talk too much, you don't flatter. Xiao Zhang didn't wake up. Most of my gains in the past two days have been in your little devil's stomach." Peng Peng smiled and waved to Zhou Baoyu: "It's still the same rule: go and send this thing to the kitchen. Tell them that I don't care about anything else, but this soup must be kept for the wounded, especially Xiao Zhang, who must have a big bowl of soup. Otherwise, I won't agree."
"Okay!"
"This little kid is very clever, but he is a little thin, so he needs to make up for it."
In the next few days, Zhang Qingshan was enjoying his life
