march to victory

Zhang Qingshan carried the banner, looked at Zhongdian Daxueshan, and said silently in his heart: "Daxueshan, our Red Army is here to conquer you again!", took a deep breath, and strode forward.Followed by Tian Guozhong and a row of comrades, each carrying a bundle of firewood.

It's better down the mountain, the snow is as rare as a little white in the green bushes, even if the soldiers have a snowball fight, there is no snow to throw away, it's just to create an atmosphere.But the more they went up, the more snow, the stronger the wind, the weirder the weather, and fewer and fewer trees—at first they thought about putting down all the firewood collected along the road, but after discussing it, they felt that the mountain was too cold. The snow is heavy, even if there are some dry dead branches that can be burned, they will definitely not satisfy everyone, so they can only be carried.

At the beginning, everyone moved forward happily, feeling that they had endless energy and the speed was very fast.Seeing the large army coming from afar, everyone booed and said that they should speed up to avoid being caught up by them, that would be a shame.

But as the altitude rises, all kinds of harsh environments come together: the air is getting thinner, and the severe cold is getting colder.Fortunately, with the guidance of the Central Red Army and the preparations that have been made before, it is acceptable both physically and mentally, but the changes in the weather make people speechless: the originally blue sky slowly fades away at a speed visible to the naked eye. The clouds were dense, and the ground was pouring with rain, or hailstones the size of a fingertip or even an egg slammed into the ground.It was falling, and soon the sky was clear again.The mountain wind is getting stronger and stronger, and when it blows on the face, it hurts like a knife. It also keeps drilling into the places where the wind leaks on people's bodies, making comrades wish they could cover all the things that can protect them from wind and rain...

Comrades have long lost the excitement they had when they first went up the mountain. Everyone kept their heads down and walked on the road, only occasionally hearing someone encouraging each other.On the other hand, Hu Yingze, seeing that the atmosphere in the team was dull, took a few people with him, ran back and forth, and kept yelling to cheer everyone up.

Zhang Qingshan secretly observed the soldiers, mainly because according to the experience provided by the Central Red Army, some people will have adverse reactions when the altitude is high.Therefore, as soon as he discussed with Hu Yingze and others, the task fell to him.

"Give it to me!" After climbing more than 2000 meters in one breath, almost half of the way up the mountain, Zhang Qingshan saw a team member beside him with a pale complexion, tiny beads of sweat on his forehead, panting heavily, and stepped forward. Snatching the firewood from him and carrying it on his own, he asked with concern, "How is it?"

The soldier wanted to snatch Chai back, but Zhang Qingshan stopped him with a wave.

"My head is a little dizzy, and I feel a little weak in my body."

Zhang Qingshan nodded, turned around and asked the people behind him loudly: "How do you feel?"

"I'm fine, I'm fine!"

"I'm not dizzy, but I'm a little weak."

"I feel like I'm breaking out in a cold sweat."

Hearing what they said, Zhang Qingshan felt relieved, but he also knew that he could not walk like this anymore, he had to take a break, otherwise, something serious might happen... Now that there is no snow under their feet, they can go a little further After the journey, we have entered the snow area, and it is difficult to survive without enough physical strength.

"The team stopped and rested at the same place... Lao Wang! Lao Wang! Quickly lead the cooking team to light a fire and cook a few pots of soup, so that the comrades can relieve their fatigue..." Zhang Qingshan led the first row, and at this time walked to the second row and Behind the third row, the cooking team followed behind.

"it is good!"

Zhang Qingshan's voice was weak and hoarse when he heard it—Old Wang's voice was very loud before, when did it become like this, don't you have adverse reactions?

Looking suspiciously at the sound, he saw Lao Wang bent over and lowered his head, and the cauldron that made him sad seemed extremely heavy.

Maybe because he sensed Zhang Qingshan's gaze, he raised his head to look at Zhang Qingshan, but saw his pale face, the fine beads of sweat on his forehead, like mushrooms after a rain.He wanted to show Zhang Qingshan a smiling face, but his cheeks just twitched a few times.

"Old Wang, you are not feeling well, why are you still carrying the cauldron?" Zhang Qingshan put the firewood he had just carried on the ground, walked over quickly, and asked with concern while helping him put down the cauldron: "How is it? Is it okay?"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Zhang Qingshan blamed himself for not being able to speak: At this time, even if he can't do it, he has to do it.Otherwise, let alone continue walking, you will definitely be persuaded to go down the mountain and stay with the common people.This is a huge blow to a Red Army soldier.Many people said that they would rather die on the Long March than leave the team.

Sure enough, upon hearing Zhang Qingshan's question, Old Wang, who was bending over, immediately straightened up, nodded forcefully, and said, "Don't worry, it's just that you don't feel used to it for a while, just walk around, it's fine, you don't need to go back."

"That's not what I mean." After speaking, Zhang Qingshan was about to help Lao Wang to sit aside, but Lao Wang waved his hands and insisted on walking aside and sitting on a cold tree stump, obviously because of Zhang Qingshan's previous words , caused his displeasure, a little angry.

Zhang Qingshan quickly took out a cigarette, handed him one, and said with a smile: "Old Wang, you smoke a cigarette first, and I'll help light the fire...you can drink more soup later to keep warm."

When Old Wang heard this, his face softened, he nodded, and said: "The soldiers have really worked hard this way. You go, I'll take a rest before going over."

Seeing that the comrades in the cooking class were not uncomfortable, Zhang Qingshan relaxed a little. After helping to light the fire, he was about to walk around to see the situation of other soldiers, but at a glance he found that Zhou Baoyu not far away was covered with big hair. Sweaty grabbing the water bottle and pouring it vigorously.

"Baoyu, what's the matter with you?" Indeed, Zhou Baoyu was sweating profusely, and even his head was steaming.The most surprising thing is that there are tears in the corners of his eyes and his lips are red and swollen.This is definitely not altitude sickness, so Zhang Qingshan felt relieved, and joked: "You have a red face and three flowers gathered on the top, are you going to soar to become a fairy here? You can teach comrades how to become a fairy, so that everyone can collectively Being a fairy doesn't have to be so hard."

Zhou Baoyu looked at Zhang Qingshan while drinking, put down the water bottle when he heard this, and was about to open his mouth, but immediately put the water bottle in front of his mouth and poured it vigorously.

The comrades next to him were already laughing together.

"Yes! Baoyu, we are all comrades. With such a good method, you can't hide it, you have to contribute..."

"The so-called one person attains the Tao and ascends to heaven, Baoyu, will you take me with you?"

"Baoyu, if there is still a shortage of fragrant paper candles to pay homage to, I will help you go down the mountain to buy..."

Everyone joked, Zhou Baoyu glared at him, but he was helpless, his mouth could not be separated from the kettle all the time.

In the end, Lao Liang, the deputy leader of the second row, smiled and explained Zhang Qingshan's doubts: Zhou Baoyu is young, and his body's resistance is not as strong as that of an adult man. eat chili.It was very effective at first, but after eating too much, it became what he is now.

No one else can help with this matter, so I can only pass the water bottle to him as much as possible... At first Zhou Baoyu wanted to grab Xuelaibing his lips, but Lao Liang stopped him.Because according to the special reminder of the Central Red Army, snow cannot be eaten raw, it must be boiled and turned into water before drinking.Otherwise, if you eat too much snow, your mouth will rot (oral ulcers), and it will be even more troublesome.

Since he couldn't help, Zhang Qingshan could only pat Zhou Baoyu on the shoulder, smiled and encouraged him, and then went to check elsewhere.

The assault company is all carefully selected players, except for a few people whose physical fitness is poor - Lao Wang is the only one in the whole company who is over thirty years old.All the soldiers in the company did not have any major adverse reactions, which made Zhang Qingshan feel relieved.

Remind everyone to try not to sit directly on the ground, so as not to wet the pants, and wait for things such as serious consequences after freezing, wandered around and came to Hu Yingze.

Hu Yingze was originally in good health, but long-term fatigue made his physical fitness a little bit bad.This altitude sickness is a little heavier than others. Although it doesn't seem to be a serious problem now, when he starts to face the heavy snow later, if he runs back and forth like this again, he will definitely have a big problem.

Passed a cigarette to Hu Yingze, but Hu Yingze shook his head and said with a smile: "I'm a little dizzy, I don't want to smoke."

Zhang Qingshan was not too polite, and after lighting his cigarette, he whispered: "Old Hu, wait for us to change, I will let Lao Wu lead the people to open the way in front, you follow the team, observe everyone's reactions for me, and I will replace you You remind comrades of various precautions..."

"How can this work? We previously..."

Also before Hu Yingze finished speaking, Zhang Qingshan looked at him and said seriously: "Old Hu, your body is exhausted enough, so don't hold on, I don't want to lose such a good partner as you." No Hu Yingze had the opportunity to speak, after finishing speaking, Zhang Qingshan stood up, patted his buttocks and left: "Okay, I'll go over there to have a look, you take a rest first."

Hu Yingze sighed, although he was moved, he also blamed himself for his poor health.

"Company commander, how much Chinese prickly ash, hot pepper and ginger to put in?"

After walking a few steps, a cook came to inquire.This is also very necessary, because you have to climb several mountains, and you can’t stew all these things in one pot here, it would be too wasteful, and you must distribute them well, so that you can have these three things for everyone every time refreshing.

"Ask Old Wang, he knows best." He said so, but he walked towards Old Wang quickly.

As soon as Lao Wang heard about this, he refused Zhang Qingshan's persuasion, got up and walked over, and distributed it himself, especially dry wild vegetables, put more... In addition to directing everyone, he did not forget to remind Zhang Qingshan: Wait a minute, comrades When using this spicy soup to match things, don’t just eat up all the food on your body, you have to distribute it reasonably-according to the experience of the Central Red Army, it is difficult to find sufficient food for the rest of the journey, so this Time has to be saved.

Zhang Qingshan listened and helped with the work... At this time, the altitude was not very high, and the water was still boiling.

Then I personally scooped soup mixed with a lot of wild vegetables in the bamboo tubes for everyone, and reminded everyone cheerfully that wild vegetables are delicious, so don’t just eat fried rice or barley, otherwise, you will eat up all the delicious food I can only eat wild vegetables every day.

While resting, Zhang Qingshan called everyone together for a mobilization meeting...
