Chapter 68: The Immortal Tombstone (Ask for Collection)
The troops continued their ascent towards the first snow-capped mountain.
What I heard was the "squeak~squeak~" of the soldiers' feet on the snow; What I saw was the white mist spit out of the mouths of the soldiers.
The troops were at first relatively smooth, but slowly the snow became thicker and thicker, the temperature became colder and colder, the terrain became steeper and steeper, and the physical exertion became more and more great.
The fighters encountered a large slope and had no choice but to take a detour. In this way, the exertion of their physical strength is increased again.
The faster the troops approached the top of the mountain, the stronger the wind became. The biting wind mixed with the snow made it difficult for the warriors to open their eyes.
Zhao Fei led the second row, at the front of the team, and walked forward step by step with difficulty with a wooden stick.
The female medical soldiers were embraced by the soldiers in the four rows, reluctantly walking step by step.
The fighters of the third platoon were responsible for the wounded, and they took turns to carry the seriously wounded.
The platoon with the strongest combat effectiveness is led by Shao Fei, who is not only responsible for the medical team, but also for the soldiers in front, so that they will not be left behind.
Suddenly, someone from the four rows of fighters in front shouted: "Someone has slipped down the mountain pass!" ”
Zhao Fei stopped and hurriedly walked back. One of the fighters was overtired and accidentally slipped and rolled into a large soft snow pit.
The man tried to get up and climb up, but his center of gravity shifted slightly, and his body continued to sink, and half of his body was stuck in the snow pit.
"Don't move!"
Zhao Fei shouted, and the warrior immediately stopped his movements and stood in the snow pit.
At this time, Shao Fei had already rushed over, and when he saw this scene, he immediately ordered Qiangzi to bring the rope.
However, the rope that was thrown down was not long enough, and there was still a long way to go from the warriors below. I saw that the soldier was sinking deeper and deeper, and there was no time to pull back the rope, he was catching and throwing.
At the moment of great urgency, Shao Fei shouted: "Qiangzi, come over with a rope!" ”
Hadron quickly took the rope, Shao Fei held the rope handed by Hadron in one hand, held the rope thrown down with the other hand, and flew down and slid down. When he reached the end of the rope, Shao Fei held the rope tightly, and the person stopped.
Shao Fei threw down the rope in his hand and shouted, "Catch!" ”
The warrior who was about to fall into the snow pit reached out and caught the rope that Shao Fei threw over, and held it tightly. And Shao Fei has already tied the two ropes together.
Shao Fei shouted at the people above: "Pull! ”
Zhao Fei led people to pull the rope hard, and Shao Fei let go of his hand, he knew that a rope dragged the weight of two people. He plunged his hands into the snow and stopped halfway up the mountain.
The soldiers below were quickly pulled up by everyone, and then Zhao Fei threw down the rope and pulled Shao Fei back.
After Shao Fei went up, his hands were already red from the cold. He ordered the troops to brace themselves and follow in the footsteps of those in front of them, as far as they could get inside.
Zhao Fei asked worriedly, "Are you okay?" ”
"It's fine."
Shao Fei shook the snow off his body, looked ahead, and said to Zhao Fei: "The wind speed on the top of the mountain is very high, and the altitude is not high now, and the soldiers have not experienced altitude sickness. After crossing this small snowy mountain, we went to a low-lying place with shelter and told the troops to rest. ”
After Shao Fei finished speaking, he turned back to the back row and returned to Liu Ying's stretcher. Seeing Liu Yingzheng looking at him worriedly, Shao Fei smiled: "I'm fine." Then he said to Zhao Li, who was carrying the stretcher, "Keep going." ”
The wind was bitterly cold, the wind carried the snow all over the sky, and the soldiers shivered from the cold. Soldiers with good physical strength to protect the wounded from the wind and snow.
The female soldiers of the health team hid behind the horses. Xu Pengfei ordered a platoon of soldiers to help the soldiers in front of them who were about to move forward with them.
Shao Fei and others surrounded Liu Ying's stretcher to block the wind for Liu Ying.
The soldiers of the troops helped each other and encouraged each other, and with this will, they crossed the first small snow-capped mountain. Rest on the flat ground between the two mountains.
There are no strong winds here, only the white snow that glows silver in the sun.
It's 1 p.m., and it's the time when the light is at its strongest. Shao Fei wanted to recover his strength now and prepare to challenge the more difficult heights.
The warriors rested on the snow or by the rocks. Eating dry baked cakes, I grabbed a handful of snow and stuffed it into my mouth when I was thirsty.
"Ah~ah~"
Suddenly, Xu Feiyan shouted in panic, hurriedly took a few steps back, and sat directly on the ground. His eyes were terrified, and his whole body was constantly trembling.
Zhao Fei, Shao Fei, Xu Pengfei and others hurriedly rushed over.
Xu Pengfei hurriedly squatted in front of his sister and asked, "Feiyan, what's wrong with you!?" ”
Xu Feiyan's frightened eyes pointed to the snow blocks in front of her, which were similar to rocks, and said in a panic: "People, it's people." ”
Shao Fei walked over and slowly peeled off the snow on the snow block with his hands, and the scene in front of him completely stunned Shao Fei. Two Red Army soldiers leaned together and froze into snowmen. They were thinly clothed, wore straw sandals, and their bodies had begun to turn purple.
Zhao Fei and the others also walked over, looking sad, staring at the two comrades-in-arms who had died a long time ago, and Zhao Fei's eyes began to redden.
Zhao Feiqiang endured his grief and shouted: "Assemble!" ”
The soldiers of the first company quickly gathered and lined up in front of these two fallen comrades.
"Salute!"
Zhao Fei ordered loudly. There was a "brush~" behind him, so the soldiers saluted the most solemn military salute. Their expressions were solemn and their eyes were solemn. This is their last tribute to the two fallen comrades.
Zhao Fei turned around and said to the soldiers with a heavy heart: "They are our comrades-in-arms, our brothers!" For the sake of noble faith, they sacrificed in this vast snow-capped mountain! They did not die on the battlefield, but froze to death here. They are as glorious as the warriors who died on the battlefield! Just as great!
Zhao Fei said, turned half of his body, pointed to the two sacrificed comrades-in-arms, and said sadly: "You are looking at their clothes and shoes, and you are looking at ourselves, what reason do we have that we can't defeat the snow-capped mountain in front of us!" ”
Zhao Fei's words were a hot fire in the hearts of the soldiers, and now they are extremely confident and extremely strong in their hearts.
Shao Fei was beside Zhao Fei and suddenly shouted: "Raise your gun!" Send our comrades on their last journey! ”
The fighters of the whole company moved in unison, raising their guns with the muzzle of the gun pointed at the sky. ,
Shao Fei ordered loudly: "Release!" ”
"Bang!"
The deafening sound of gunfire continued to echo in the snowy mountains. In the sound of this gunshot, there was the high respect of the soldiers for the two of them.
"Hadrons."
"Here!"
Hadron stepped forward.
Shao Fei instructed Qiangzi: "Bury it, dig deeper, and see the soil." ”
"Yes!"
Hadron found two people and wanted to put the two fallen comrades on the ground.
Qiangzi turned around and said, "Squad leader, you can't separate." ”
Shao Fei turned around and looked, and the two were completely frozen together. Shao Fei let out a long sigh and said, "Let them be together, born as brothers, and die as companions." ”
"Got it."
Hadron whispered back, sadness in his voice.
Hadron and two other fighters buried their fallen comrades deep in the dirt under the rocks. Shao Fei carved "Tomb of Red Army Soldiers" on the rock with a bayonet.
Two sacrificed Red Army soldiers embraced each other and rested in the snow-capped mountains. This is a permanent monument in the snow-capped mountains, which will be forever remembered by future generations.
