"I know." Xiongzhao rubbed his face and said, looking directly at Sister Hong, "But where are we going? It's too dangerous in the deep mountains and old forests. Beasts like big insects and blind bears can eat us."
Mo Hongying counted down and found that their regiment now only had 200 people, and they were all old, weak and disabled soldiers.
"But if you stay here, the Japs' motorized machinery will arrive in the blink of an eye, and you will be dead by then." Mo Hongying frowned and looked at him and said.
"It's such a cold day, they can't find us!" Xiongzhao said luckily.
"Following the dragging marks on the snow, the Japs can easily find us." Mo Hongying looked at him with sharp eyes and said, "If possible, it is best to leave now."
"The snow can also cover up our traces. This is really telling others about our traces." Xiongzhao looked at her tangledly and said, "I want to leave too, but where can I go?"
"Are there no bandit dens nearby?" Mo Hongying heard this and crossed her brow with her index finger, thinking about it and looking at him.
"No, no, the bandits have been taken over by the Japanese." Xiong Claw heard this and shook his head like a rattle.
"I don't plan to occupy the bandit's den forever. The main reason is that the bandit's den is generally a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. There is a kang and hot water. You political commissar and the others can be properly taken care of, and we can also take a rest." Mo Hong Ying looked at him with her dark eyes and said, "You are so weak that you have no fighting ability."
"Sister Hong, you think it's too easy to fight the Japanese." Xiongzhao looked at her with a serious face and said, "The Japanese control us and we can't move. Life is a luxury."
"Let's leave here first, and we'll talk about the rest later." Mo Hongying looked at the red sky and said.
"It's very dangerous to march at night." Bear Claw also looked up at the sky and said.
"We have to leave. It's not a safe day." Mo Hongying frowned and looked at him and said, "We have to find a place to take shelter from the wind and snow."
"The wind and snow came just in time to cover up all our traces." Xiongzhao looked at her with bright eyes when he heard this.
After hearing this, Mo Hongying closed her eyes and looked at the innocent man and said, "The wind and snow can cover up our traces, but can we bear it? Can flesh and blood bear it?"
"Uh..." The bear's claws were blocked and he was speechless. He murmured for a long time and said, "If the wind and snow come, the Japanese will not move out. We can make a fire." Then he added, "We can't find a place now. I can’t find it!” He added in a low voice, “We have been here like this for many years.”
After hearing this, Mo Hongying thought about it seriously and said, "Listen to you, what you said makes sense. It's more suitable to go on the road during the day." She said sheepishly, "I'm sorry for the random suggestion just now. I shouldn't have said anything nonsense."
"No, no, your starting point is also good, and it is also for our benefit." Xiongzhao waved his hands in panic.
"The starting point is good, but it must also be combined with reality!" Mo Hongying patted her dog-skin hat and said.
"You sit on the wooden box and rest! Let's get some firewood now so that we can light it to keep warm when the snow comes down." Bear Claw looked at her with bright black eyes and said.
"Go! There is a fire and hot water to drink. It will be hot to eat." Mo Hongying looked at him with bright eyes and said.
Mo Hongying sat cross-legged on the wooden box, closed her eyes, and regained her strength to withstand the severe cold.
Xiongzhao led the people to chop firewood. When they came back with the firewood on their backs, large, large snowflakes fell again.
"Make a fire, light a fire quickly." Xiaodouzi was busy looking for matches.
"Is it possible to light the fire earlier? It has just started. Will it stop burning in a while?" Chicken Neck said worriedly.
"Let's light a fire!" Mo Hongying opened her eyes and said, "Look at this gloomy posture, the snow will get heavier and heavier." She snorted coldly, "Even if there are ghosts and we have a gun in our hand, are we still afraid? ?”
"Make a fire." Xiongzhao thought about it and said, "If you don't make a fire on such a cold day, the temperature will be even lower at night, and you will freeze to death sooner or later."
"Come on, let's make a fire." Xiaodouzi happily struck the match, lit the hay, and lit the dry branches he picked up. The others started the fire with the branches, and gave the firewood they had set up to the fire. lit.
The crackling sound combined with the sound of falling snow was particularly loud in the silent mountain forest.
Everyone looked at the blazing fire and felt much warmer instantly.
Xiongzhao and the others carried the wounded out of the shack, approached the fire, and wrapped them tightly in cotton clothes.
On the big iron pot stand, shovel the snow directly and pour it into the pot.
Mo Hongying's mouth twitched when she saw this, she was so generous.
"This snow is clean!" Xiongzhao looked at Mo Hongying worriedly and said, "It's not dirty."
"In Dream of Red Mansions, people collect peach blossom snow and make tea to drink!" Birch Tree sat in front of the fire with his arms hanging and looked at her and said, "This snow is clean."
After digging out the carrion, applying medicine, bandaging it again, and eating something, the birch tree obviously looked better, and the person became more energetic.
"I know, I don't dislike it, it's just that the porcelain and the dishes are very delicate." Mo Hongying looked at him with pure eyes and said, "We have iron pots and big baskets made of rattan, very rough and bold. ." He added with a crooked eyebrow, "The sky and the ground are covered, it's very interesting."
Hearing this, Huashu smiled and said, "As long as you don't dislike it."
"How could it be?" Mo Hongying smiled and shook her head slightly, "I'm not a rude and trouble-making person."
"But you look so exquisite. You come from the bustling Shanghai." Birch looked at her with his dark eyes.
"Who doesn't know how to enjoy happiness? The reality is that the conditions are there! I don't even want it!" Mo Hongying looked at them with clear eyes and said, spreading her hands and waving them.
"It's all the devil's fault. If they hadn't broken into our home, burned, killed and looted, we wouldn't have had to be here." Xiaodouzi couldn't help but muttered, "I can sleep on the warm Kang."
"Yes! I will definitely beat them away." Bear Claw said, rubbing his furry hat.
"So many comrades are gone, and we have lost contact with our superiors. I don't know how many years it has been." Xiaodouzi choked up and said, "Except for feeling the changes of the four seasons, I don't know how many years it has been."
"42 years." Mo Hongying looked at him with her deep and bright eyes.
"It turns out that ten years have passed." Xiongzhao said with emotion after hearing this, and then said helplessly, "The enemy seems to be controlling us more and more tightly, and our scope of activities is getting smaller and smaller."
"It turns out there are more than 30,000 people like us in the Northeast! Now I don't know how many more there are." Xiaodouzi muttered.
"Hey, can you tell me this?" Mo Hongying looked at them with wide eyes and said.
"There is nothing that cannot be said." Birch looked at her calmly and said, "Most of the people are gone, but it would be good to have a thousand people left. We have today and no tomorrow, and we are not afraid to tell you." (This chapter over)
