Chapter 19: Turkish Brigade (II)

"Ball! No matter what brigade he is, I don't believe that I can't break through!" Captain Chu slapped his fist and smashed it on the map: "Let the troops rest for two hours, and you must break through before dawn."

"Old Chu!" Chen Ye lit a cigarette and said slowly: "Don't be anxious first, this battle is difficult to fight. If we are not careful, our regiment will fall into the enemy's layers of encirclement."

"That's right, the commander!" I couldn't help but say, "This Turkish brigade came up, and it was probably because the puppet troops behind us had retreated all sides. This Turkish brigade was here to fill the gap. If we do it rashly, there are fierce Turkish brigades in front and two divisions of the puppet troops retreating behind, our regiment will be caught in the middle."

"The pseudo-7th Division behind us is nothing." Chen Ye spat out a mouthful of smoke and said, "Behind them is our large army chasing us. It has long been a frightened bird. It is not very difficult for us to escape. Just fight back. It's just..."

"No!" Captain Chu cut his needle and said in a stern manner: "To put it nicely, just hit it back. To put it badly, just retreating in the face of trouble. No matter what we say, we can't afford to lose this person."

I had known for a long time that Captain Chu would not accept this plan, so I sniffed and said, "Is there a mountain road to walk? Can you go around? This is not sure that we can go around the back of the Turkish brigade, and when the large army comes up, we stab him in the back."

"This plan is feasible!" Chen Ye nodded and said, "Even if we don't fight, we won't be dragged here. We can find our troops as soon as possible."

"Yeah!" Captain Chu also nodded: "Where is that comrade from the People's Army? What's the name of the one who is familiar with the mountain road..."

“金秋莲.”我在旁补充道,还没认识她几天,不过这小丫头片子的名字我倒是记得挺牢的.

"Yes, yes! It's that Jin Qiulian, Platoon Leader Cui, go and call her to come!"

"Yes!" I responded, but it was not easy to find a short-haired girl from the crowd of people who fell asleep on the ground. So, I shouted "Comrade Xiao Jin! Comrade Xiao Jin!" all the way, but no one responded. When I was worried, I suddenly remembered that someone said that girls were afraid of snakes. I held them and pretended to be terrifying, "Snake! Snake... Snake is on your neck!"

"Wow! Where is it?" A man suddenly jumped behind him and shouted in a trembling voice: "Where is the snake? My neck, my neck, quickly... remove it!"

It worked, I knew it was her at the sound, but this really surprised me. Even Jin Qiulian, who was born in a hunter, was afraid of snakes. No wonder my first girlfriend broke up with me. I remembered that on my last date, I accidentally wore snakes and wore snakeskin patterns and then accidentally hugged her from behind...

"Miss!" I walked to the scared Jin Qiulian and sighed deeply, "The towel around your neck!"

"Take a bite of snow first, so as to calm down!" He brought Jin Qiulian to the team leader. Seeing that she was still shaking for a long time, I felt that I needed to make some apology, but usually I would drink a glass of water or ginger soup at this time. Wunai is too cold here. Hot water and ginger soup are just a luxury for us, so I had to grab a handful of snow on the side of the road instead. Anyway, it was water in my mouth.

"Tsk!" Jin Qiulian didn't say anything, and was still touching the goose bumps on her hands. Her feelings were really scared.

"Look at you..." Chen Ye whispered to me: "You can't be more friendly to the comrades of the People's Army, take care of them?"

"I..." The political commissar and others would not know the grievances I usually suffer, but looking at the scared Jin Qiulian, I could only pour all the bitterness into my stomach.

"Comrade Xiao Jin!" It was still the leader of the group, who was anxious and pointed to the map and said, "In front of the Wayuan, Tokugawa area, there were a large number of enemies guarding it. See if there are any mountain roads to go around."

"Report to the team leader!" Jin Qiulian replied with certainty without looking at the map: "No."

"No?" The leader of the regiment, political commissar, and I, were a little disappointed when I heard this answer.

"No." Jin Qiulian said, comparing to a solid line on the map, "This is called Datong River. This river just passes through Tokugawa and Wayuan. All mountain roads are divided into two by this river. Originally, there was a sling bridge that could cross the river ten miles north of Tokugawa, but before you came, you were set on fire by the enemy. Now there is only one bridge that crosses the river within a radius of dozens of miles, that is Wuling Bridge in Wuling."

"There is no other way?" Chen Ye fell into deep thought again.

Jin Qiulian shook her head helplessly: "The river water has not been frozen. It is impossible to cross the river in such a cold situation. You can only cross the bridge."

Just kidding, crossing the river... I smiled bitterly. Even if I crossed the river, people would become popsicles, and they saved some bullets for the enemy. But why did the name Wuling Bridge sound so familiar?

Oh no, I suddenly remembered the story of resisting U.S. aggression and aiding Korea in the movie "Surprise Attack" I watched when I was a child. In order to cut off the back of the puppet army, the volunteer army sent a team deep behind the enemy to blow up a bridge. The name of the bridge seemed to be Wuling Bridge, which is not the case now...

But well, I made a small plan in my mind. If the volunteer army team really blows up the bridge, we can't cross the river. At least we don't have to go so far to fight a bad battle anymore, and we can have a good sleep!

"It's no big deal." However, Captain Chu gritted his teeth and said, "No matter what Turkish brigade he is, I'll call him, I haven't been afraid of anyone yet!"

"Old Chu, don't be anxious first!" Chen Ye advised, "The battle is to be fought, and the bridge is to be passed, but you can't force it!"

"Yes, the regiment commander!" The other cadres also persuaded him: "Our soldiers haven't had a good sleep for days and nights. They have been forcibly marching for so long, so the Turkish brigade really has..."

"Ball!" Captain Chu suddenly sat up and said, "A Turkish brigade scared you like this? The enemy has not yet met yet!"
